Speaker 1 (00:01):
Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George
Washington Broadcast Center. Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty arm Strong
and Getty and he Armstrong and Yetty.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
I'm a Chinese scientists entered the United States in July
with a poisonous fungus stash in his backpack. His destination
a laboratory at the University of Michigan, where he would
rendezvous with his girlfriend. Here's a conversation between the suspects
on a chat about the attempts to sneak the deadly
pathogen into the United States, teaching yang seeds must be
placed well, where to put it? I only have one
(00:45):
pair of shoes. The insole cannot be pulled off. Did
you bring just one pair of shoes? Three pair? Wear
one pair? Where did the seeds get put in the tube?
I put them in my Martin boots in a small bag,
the ziploc bag, very small. That's good. Just put it
in your shoes. I stuffed them in the shoes.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
That was the man and his girlfriend who claimed he
didn't know anything about the fungus, and then she said
I didn't ask him to bring it in. And then
they found the text messages which made it clear that
they knew they were doing something they shouldn't do, and
they were working together. That's why they have been arrested.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Chinese agent is trying to smuggle in a dangerous pathogen
to poison our crops. Although, as we mentioned a couple
hours ago, Greg from Sunnyvale with this note, come on,
you racists, you're perpetuating the increase in violent attacks on
Asian Americans. The fungus is just a discoloration of the
toenails of the pangle. And then was eating a bat
at the wet market. But we should probably ask doctor
(01:39):
Fauci to be sure.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Ooh, Supreme Court is releasing judgments. Got a couple of
headlines for you. Maybe we'll do a deep dive on
them a little bit later. One breaking news, the Supreme
Court unanimously blocked the Mexican government from proceeding with an
unusual lawsuit, says the Washington Post, that sought to hold
the major US firearms manufacturers accountable for gun violence in Mexico. Well,
(02:05):
always seemed stupid. I can't believe it had to go
all the way to Supreme Court. But anyway, that ain't
gonna happen. This one is interesting, though. The Supreme Court
rules for a straight woman in a job discrimination suit.
The justices rejected an appeals court's requirement that members of
majority groups meet a heightened standard to win employment discrimination cases.
(02:26):
If you're a dude or white, you have to have
some serious reasons for while you're a discriminated against prior.
Now it's just if you're discriminated to discriminate, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
This is another loud and unequivocal statement that racial discrimination, bigotry,
whatever is bigotry, you can't it doesn't matter who's on
the receiving end. We won't have it.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
I was about to say this, but I think John
Roberts actually said this recently. You can't fight discrimination with discrimination,
right and again the crap. Well, no, that's not true
because the dominant group and the heteropatriarchy blubb. No, we
don't let you discriminate based on sexual orientation or race.
In the United States. We don't do it. It's illegal. Well,
(03:12):
but the oppressor group, no, cut the crap. I think
the simple principle stick to it. I think closer to
his actual quote was you can't fix discrimination with discrimination,
which is right.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
You think obviously true. Amen, well done, soups, well done.
One more thought before I get into really interesting stuff
about sleep, just had to mention this. Have you seen
Corey Booker giving the Nazi salute?
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (03:39):
I have actually side by side with Elon Musk's quote
unquote Nazi salute there at the it was the inauguration
speech or the convention, whatever it was, when a big
deal was made of that.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
I mean side by side.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
It's like the famous Marx Brothers bit from Duck Soup,
where Groucho and Harpo are mirror images of each other.
It is precisely the same blanking gesture.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Here's a list. Cory Booker, who is a Democratic senator.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Yes, from New Jersey, the Spartacus speech, Google it, chet
gpt it. Anyway, here is a list of the news
networks who have not covered Cory Booker's Nazi salute. The
New York Times, CNN, Washington Post, MSNBC, NPR, USA Today, Reuter's, Axios,
and ABC News.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Why would I list them? Every single one of them
wrote stories on Elon Musk's Nazi salute. I know a family,
actually know a family, husband, wife, and child. Tipping point
for them leaving the country. They're actually leaving the country,
not kidding. Was Elon's Nazi salute? And if you don't
(04:51):
think it was a Nazi salute, you are blind. Obviously
it was a Nazi salute. Yeah, how did I don't
even know. I don't know. I don't know how to
explain that these are two smart people too.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
Yeah, Well, as I say all the time, intelligence and
wisdom are unconnected or not.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
That's from boxtremely try.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
Yes, yes, that was That was the title of Corey
worker speech, as I understand it. So, this is so interesting,
and I think it applies to all. I think it
applies to all. Of course, it applies to all of us.
The genetic components of sleep. Without eight or nine hours
of sleep, most of us would stagger around like zombies.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Well six to eight tonight and whatever.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
But according to a new study, some people have a
genetic mutation that makes them feel perfectly terrific after sleeping
only about half as much.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Well you kind of YadA YadA, six to nine. I
mean six is way different than nine. That gives you
an extra three hours a day of productivity or leap
or whatever you want to do. Sure sleeping, and this
is so important.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
Sleeping gives the body a chance to detox and clear
out the junk from your brain. And I've also heard
it described by neuroscientists as when you do your filing
and when you do your combining of ideas and finding
the patterns and that sort of thing.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
A lot of that stuff happens while you're asleep.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
Anyway, Well, the human body typically takes about eight or
nine hours to do this. Having what's called the short
sleep mutation makes its possible within just three to six hours.
There's this neuroscientist who researches gene mutations relaid to sleep.
He's now discovered in another mutation that contributes to natural
short sleep. They call it NSS and his field adding
to the five already known mutations that she and her
(06:38):
team previously discovered. So there are half a dozen of
them that you know. If you have them in various combinations,
you need much less sleep and you are absolutely fine.
Their genes involved in metabolism, energy, and your circadian rhythms.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
First of all, it's odd that it's always round number
six seventy nine as opposed to and a half. I
think I'm a six and a half guy. I can
get by in six quite easily. Seven is absolutely plenty,
So I think six and a half is my sweet spot.
So I might be a bit of a mutant myself
that in my tail, right right, I've got to touch
(07:15):
you keep well hidden. Most days I tuck it in
my pants, right right.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
We could get into some of the biochemistry of this,
but I don't think anybody remember it even if we
comprehended it.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
My question is this, if you could genetically edit the
embryo for your child, would you not choose? I don't know,
they only need seven hours of sleep as opposed to nine.
Why wouldn't you do that?
Speaker 3 (07:39):
You know, I'd certainly spend an hour or two reading
about it and making sure there's no downside.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
But yeah, yeah, that seems to me like it. I
actually damping in the ear. I think anytime you get
into that kind of playing god, you're getting dangerous. Yeah,
but that might just be old timey thinking. Maybe there's
absolutely no downside to choose. You know, this is just
a genetic change where where you know one is better
than the other period, and why wouldn't you want the better?
Speaker 3 (08:06):
As often in these things, well practically always, it has
to do with various hormones you've never heard of excreted
by your hypothalamus blah blah blah, and other ones. Some
keep you awake, some promote sleep, and it's well again,
the biochemistry. If we're starting to take too long, but
(08:29):
really super interesting. You know, I'm thinking about your would
you choose that for your child if you could? Old
timey thinking when we hear more and more and more
stories like I brought the other day about a little
baby was born with a very rare genetic condition that
the crisper technology is really helping, otherwise the kid would
(08:50):
probably already be dead.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Oh wow, yeah, beautiful little boy.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
And I think as we get more and more used
to the non Franknstinian uses of this stuff, the acceptance
of certainly you're really innocent, stuff like needing less, sleep well,
and eventually, yes, we will be designing babies with six
foot two, blonde hair, blue eyes, and super geniuses, et cetera.
(09:16):
But by then, you know, the other things that we
talk about all the time will have doomed the human race,
so it's ultimately feudal.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Back to you, speaking of which, have you seen the
trailers for the new Frankenstein movie? I have not. I
had no idea there was one. There is a new
Frankenstein movie coming up, directed by Gia more del Toro.
It was, you know, very famous in all respects. Oh yeah,
and it looks pretty pretty cool. I don't know if
it's a darker take on Frankenstein which he kills puppies
(09:44):
or something. I don't know, but or what, or just
the latest modern but you know, with the modern CGI
and everything like that, who knows. It could be great.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Yeah, the modern movie audience is not me and vice versa.
On the other hand, if you were to do something
completely non stylized, do this retelling in the Frankenstein story,
almost like a documentary, I think that would be incredibly
compelling and chilling and freaky, and you would never.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Forget it, you know what I mean. You've always got
to like really tart it up. And I've been meaning
to talk about this. I gotta find a spot to
talk about this, maybe in the One More Thing podcast.
But there are certain like dumb things that happen in
every movie I watch with my kids, and I just think,
how dumb do you think we are? Just really is
the audience is very very dumb?
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Is the audience as dumb as Hollywood thinks it isn't?
I don't believe so. I hang around a lot of
normal people. I'm a normal person. I don't think we're
that dumb.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
Well, in response, I would offer Trump's just trying to
keep those tax cuts going for millionaires and billionaires and
giant corporations the expense of the middle class and working people.
That's the Democrat parties view of the movie audience, which
is also the voter.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Yea, and they spend a hell of a lot of money.
Figure in this stuff out. Yeah, my son wants to
see the new Jurassic Park in the theater. There are
some movies that are better in a theater than at home,
no doubt. You know, if you're gonna watch you know,
some mostly talking love interest story with a deep plot
where they discuss philosophy. That's fine on your television, but
you're gonna watch. I can't ever think of the name
(11:30):
of the latest Marvel movie that I liked so much,
The Untouchables, the Furtibles, whatever, the work comeback that wasn't
comebacks anyway. But if you want to see a something
like that, yes, Katie, but nothing Crustables. If you want
to see the crustables. You want to see it in
the theater, in the big screen. There's just something more
impactful about it. Yeah, new Wes Anderson Anderson movie. Can't
(11:52):
wait to see that.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
That's sort of seeing on the big screen too, because
it's always so visual, visually striking his movies. If you
haven't been in that sentence was terrible. I was looking
at the clock and thinking you got to rush through that.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
It was a bad idea, folks. I apologize for my Sonce.
If you haven't been to the theater a while, though,
don't be surprised by the prices it's gonna get. You
take someone with you. You're gonna spend sixty bucks easily
eighty bucks.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Oh absolutely, so freaking you are. We smuggle our own
snacks in.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
Well, okay, I'm just fan for the ticket. If you
want to defraud an innkeeper and be part of the
criminal element, then the Supreme Court decisions and some other
things on the way.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
Armstrong yetie, if we don't have out of use for
people to come here needally for when the bills are home.
Speaker 5 (12:41):
Here, I'm going right now, We're not anybody because we
don't have enough people.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
Fill the jobs that we have right now.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
That is a representative Becca Ballant, a Democrat of Vermont,
explaining why we need lots of immigration, essentially because we're
not having babies and we're not, you know, growing as
a country without immigration, and we're not gonna have anybody
to wipe our hind ends when we are old.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
What did she say at the beginning? I couldn't quite
understand it well. Was she saying you don't need to
play it again because I won't be able to understand
it again this time? She said, we won't have people
to what wipe our heinees? That's what she said as yes, wow, okay, yes,
that's what you uh A powerful argument in favor of
opening the border. I can hire and illegal to do
(13:34):
that for me. I'm not sure I want to. I
feel like i'd feel vulnerable. What's the application process? Exactly?
What position do I need to get into for this
to happen? I think with the interview unfold, I think
I'm gonna feel very vulnerable. Wow, okay, I am doing
(13:55):
my Hey Katie, three days in a row now, I've
done my planks ever since you explained how to do
him and everything like that, so I'm a plank guy now,
oh good, yeah, yeah, So I'll see if I get
any benefits out of it. I don't know, this is
as your core feeling. I don't know. Thirty two different
muscle groups worked with a plank, so that's a lot
of muscle groups.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
That's I heard that on the podcast. That's fascinating. I
need to get back to it myself.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
I'd never done it before. I'll see if it does
me any good, or if I feel like it does
meaning good. So this story, maybe you've heard it or not.
Trump is attacking Biden and Republicans are attacking Biden for
a you know, did you know that you signed all
this stuff? You used the auto pen, which is perfectly
fine to use the autopen. Presidents since they invented it
(14:42):
have been using the auto pen sometimes. But it's it
is a different story that that doesn't that's not that
is a that is not a there's nothing to see
here revelation that other presidents have used the autopen. When
you're wandering around with your mouth agape and you don't
know where you are and you're using the autopanel lot
people wonder. Okay, So Joe Biden actually sent a statement
(15:06):
to Politico yesterday, to Politico that said, let me be clear,
I made the decisions during my presidency. I made the
decisions about the pardons, executive orders, legislation, and proclamations. Any
suggestion that I didn't is ridiculous and false. This is
nothing more than a distraction by Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans.
We're working to push disastrous legislation that would cut essential
(15:28):
programs like Medicaid and raise costs on American families, all
to pay for tax breaks for the ultra wealthy and
big corporations, that last part being a one hundred percent lie.
And there's lots of places you can go to for
analysis of the twenty seventeen tax cut and who it
benefited and who it didn't. Question, Sorry, did you say
the easter bunny wrote that statement? Well, right, question number one?
(15:50):
Did Biden write that or not? Of course, not the
statement claiming he made the statement. But anyway, I thought
Mark Halpern's summary of this was pretty good. Mark Alpern
and his newsletter today said amazing that after all we
have learned about Biden, how his presidency operated, that the
media is still in there. There is no evidence for
Trump's baseless accusations mode, instead of just reprinting what the
(16:12):
president says with like no. On the other hand, sources right,
there's a book out making it clear that five people
were running the White House. Didn't throw any of that in.
You just take the statement, the press release from the
former president and print it and on you go. That
is amazing. Yeah, it's a.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
Slight variation on the Republican's pounce technique.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
But you realize one of the most famous left leaning
journalists in America, Jake Tapper, is doing a two hour
podcast every day explaining how Joe Biden's brain didn't work
and other people were running the White House. He can't
ignore that, Politico. Apparently he can. Apparently you can just look.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
Just watch Supreme Court with a couple of big rulings,
one much bigger than the other. Front plus our four
can't wait to get to this. Science has figured out
how to fall in love?
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Oh wow, to fall in love? You want to be
in love, We'll tell you how. Wow. Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 5 (17:15):
They're the absolute worst group of people we've got in
our country, and it's not even close. I think we'd
all be better off with them going. But as I
was saying, my administration and I have been taking careful
note of the work of Colossal Labs, the biotech company
that resurrected the dire Wolf. If they can bring back wolves,
they can bring back dinosaurs.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Terrible lizard.
Speaker 5 (17:37):
That's what dinosaur means if you break it down. But
picture this, folks, velociraptor mounted border patrol agents. They'll rip
your head clear off. Pterodactyls patrolling the skies, velociraptors on
the ground. To prevent the immigration apocalypse, we may have
to counter with a dino apocalypse.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
Folks.
Speaker 5 (17:56):
It's true.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
I'm glad, Handsome new Glad you said, don't tell people
it's AI before we played, because it was much better
that way. Wow. That cause that if we didn't come
on and say it was AI, lots of people would say,
holy crap, did you hear the crazy s?
Speaker 3 (18:15):
Trump said today? Oh, surely they would have figured it out.
There's video too. You can see it at Armstrong and
Getdy dot com at Katie's Corner.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (18:23):
Yeah, there are a couple of new AI things out that.
I mean, as if you needed this. It's over, folks,
it's over.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
The ability to discern reality from creation in video and
audio and all. Oh I saw where they edited. No,
it's over, it's all. Everything's over soon. See that two
years or twenty years, I'm not sure, but it'll all
be over soon. So that's why I'm doing all my planks.
So my core is right here. Yeah, you gotta be ready.
(18:53):
You gotta have a good core for the apocalypse. No, dobactly.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
You know, as long as we're talking about that sort
of thing, why don't we do the and again, the
video element of this is pretty good too, and we'll
have it at Armstrong You getty dot Calm. This is
the Excelipt Michael Levin Man on the Street interviews from
the fifteen hundreds.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
What's lifel like for you right now?
Speaker 5 (19:18):
Woke up, stepped in, done, got taxed, and that was
before breakfast.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Do you enjoy your work?
Speaker 3 (19:26):
Ah?
Speaker 1 (19:27):
Eh, it's honest work and no one talks back. What
do you think of King Henry?
Speaker 5 (19:34):
Oh, well, he's very committed to.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
Marrying. How's the health situation looking? Well?
Speaker 4 (19:44):
Everyone I saw yesterday is dead today.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
How do you respond to the witch accusations? If I
were a witch, you'd already be a.
Speaker 4 (19:55):
Frog what's the biggest challenge for a noble woman these days?
Three hours to get dressed and still no pockets, flower shortage,
the oven is cursed and rats, lots of rats.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
What's life like for a farmer right now? Hard work,
saw back, but the soil is good this year. Might
even eat something with meat next week. Wow. That's yeah,
and all completely convincing mls from the year fifteen hundred.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
Yeah, amazing, amazing man on that road. Meanwhile, back in
the present, this is.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Huge. In fact, it is so.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
Devastatingly huge, I think most people will miss the hugeness
of it. The Supreme Court rejected an appeals court requirement
that members of a majority group meet a heightened standard
to win employment discrimination cases. I will give you the
particulars of the case and the facts. This is a
(21:02):
unanimous ruling.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
Wow, I didn't know that.
Speaker 5 (21:06):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
The Supreme Court reunanimously ruled in favor of a straight
woman who twice lost positions to gay workers, saying an
appeals court had been wrong to require her to meet
a heightened burden and seeking to prove workplace discrimination because
she was a member of a majority group. I've got
to admit to more than mild surprise that this is unanimous.
I thought at least Katanji Brown Jackson was down with
(21:30):
the whole woke a victim oppresser Parana.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
Yeah, that's awesome. I would like to know about the
wrangling behind the scenes. You know, back in the day,
the civil rights legislation was often nine zero, and they
work really hard to come up with something they could
all sign on to because it was so important. They
felt that they needed a unified front, so there couldn't
be any claims of well, it's just because he was
appointed by whoever, whatever, And I wonder if any of
(21:56):
that went on here. But again, I'm surprised that some
of the justice agree that having a different standard because
you're in the majority white man whatever is ridiculous discriminations
and discrimination period and you can't fix the past discrimination
with present discrimination.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Obviously speaking KBJ telling quote from her stay.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
Tuned for like ten seconds.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
The decision came two years after the Supreme Court struck
down race conscious admissions programs in higher education and admit
the Trumpet administration's fierce efforts excuse me to root out
programs that promote diversity, Oh my god, yeah, and could
make it easier for white people, men, and other members
of majority groups to pursue claims of employment discrimination. The
(22:43):
New York Times, obviously as usual, weighing in with a
little editorial in the midst of their reporting facts the
standards for proving workplace discrimination under federal civil rights law.
Just as Katanji Brown Jackson wrote for the Court, quote
does not vary based on whether or not the plaintiff
is a member of a majority group.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
Wow, or it doesn't wow, wow, I have renewed respect
for her, or in heightened respect, I guess it would
be me be fair. But that is something they're so
clearly right, all nine of them. This is you're right.
This is huge, This is absolutely huge. And how many
times have you heard we've played clips over the years.
(23:26):
You can't discriminate against a white person, Oh sure, Or.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
There's the only it's not racism of a black person
hates white person, or hates an Asian person or a
Chinese person hates a No, it can only be racism
if it is the majority group, the power group, having
prejudiced against the less powerful group. Literally, Ibramex Kendy would
tell you, no, there's no such thing as black racism,
(23:53):
it can't exist.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Read that quote again from the most woke leaning member
of the nine justices.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
Standards for proving workplace discrimination under federal civil rights law.
Quote does not vary based on whether or not the
plaintiff is a member of a majority group. This is
the liberals of the Supreme Court standing up for well
classical liberalism. Yeah, the idea that no no discrimination, bigotry
is wrong, no matter in what direction it's going.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
We are not repeat not down with the woke crowd. Boy,
the tentacles or ripples on the pond, or whatever you
want to use of this one could be huge.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
The perspective we're trying to give will not be repeated
in the bigfoot media, and that is a shame because
it's so important.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
But the perspective is.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
The whole woke paradigm, the whole neo Marxist victim oppressor,
white supremacist thing is held by such a small group
of people, such a small, angry, adamant, activist, radical group
of people. It's it's had an outsized shadow on the
(25:07):
American conversation for way too long, particularly in the wake
of the George Floyd mayhem. It is literally well figuratively, sorry,
a shadow cast that is so much larger than the
reality of the support for those ideas. And the Supreme
Court has just said, look, even our most liberal members
(25:29):
understand you cannot run a society based on the principles.
Every damn undergrad is being told that they're colleges and university.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
Yeah, that's why the nine ruling is so important for this,
So that it can't be a the Trump Court, the
out of control Maggot Court, et cetera, if it was
a six' three of a certain kind or. Something, yeah
so that this is, Awesome this is. AWESOME i want to.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
Tell you about the particulars of the case after a
quick word from our friends that simply save home. Security
when you're leaving your house for, work going to bed at,
night you want to know that the people you love
and the things you work so hard to get aren't
gonna be. Safe and simply safe New Active guard outdoor
protection helps stop breakings before they happen is.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Amazing, Well i'm gonna go with this angle on this.
Commercial just how sure Simply safe is that their product
is good with all of these different. Things sixty day
money back, guarantee no. Contracts that's not the way other
security systems. Work if you've ever had, one they lock
you in for a year or two because they're so
(26:33):
certain there's a good chance you're gonna DECIDE i don't
like this or it's too complicated to. Use Simply safe
is not too complicated to, use and you will like,
it and they know. That that's why there's no. Contract
super advanced.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Stuff we've told you about it, before and monitoring plans
start around a dollar a.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Day it's, amazing so.
Speaker 3 (26:50):
Much better visit simply safe dot com slash armstrong to
claim fifty percent. Off a new system with a professional
monitoring plan gets first month. Free that's simplysafe dot com slash.
Armstrong there's no safe like simply. Safe so this, case
which two appeals courts had ruled in the other, Direction,
wow you know we could go off on a tangent
(27:11):
there no.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Kidding what does that mean when other courts ruled the
other direction and The Supreme court says nine to, nothing you,
guys women are, wrong.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
Including KJB Kbjuh Judge. Katanji, yeah that is a rather stunning.
Indictment he uses mixing legal terms of our appeals courts
certainly some of them. Anyway the case was originally brought
(27:43):
By Marlene, ames who had worked for The Ohio department
Of Youth services overseas juvenile, corrections among other. Things after
a decade, there she became the administrative of a program
addressing prison. Rape five years, later she applied for a.
Promotion her supervisors turned her, down saying she lacked vision
and leadership. Skills they eventually gave the position to a
gay woman who had been at the department for a shorter, time,
(28:04):
and unlike Mss, aims lacked a college degree that doesn't prove.
Anything not long after denying her the new, position or
supervisors removed her from her existing, job telling her that
they had concerns about her leadership and offering her a
demotion that came with a substantial pay. Cut she was
replaced by a gay man with less, seniority and she
sued under the federal civil rights rights law that forbids employment,
(28:27):
discrimination among other, things on. Sex the text of the
law does not draw distinctions based on whether the person
claiming discrimination is a member.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
Of a majority. Group of, course it, doesn't.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
But some courts have required plaintiffs from majority groups to
prove additional elements if they lack direct evidence of discrimination
background circumstances that support the suspicion that the defendman is
that unusual employer who discriminates against the. Majority, OH i
see why that's a convoluted. Sentence anyway you need addition.
(29:00):
Evidence lower courts ruled against Mss ames on those. GROUNDS
Us court Of appeals for The Six circuits In cincinnati
said she could have satisfied the background circumstances requirement by
showing the decisions about her employment were made by a
member of a. Relative blah, blah blah. Blah they get
way into the. Weeds does this have any effect going
the other?
Speaker 1 (29:19):
Direction in THAT i know corporations sometimes are really scared
to fire A let's use an extreme, example black female gay.
WOMAN i don't need to say female and a woman
a black gay, woman because it's so easy to say
it was BECAUSE i was these. Things what does it
(29:40):
have any effect go in that? DIRECTION i wonder you,
know that's an interesting.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
POINT i think one of the unfortunate side effects of
this might, be now that you pointed out quite, aptly well,
Done jack Thinks i'm working on my Core if this
if this makes it easier in general to bring discrimination.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
Lawsuits i'm not sure or we're gonna love where that ends. Up,
yeah and that may.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
Be this could, be AND i hate to admit, This
this could be one of those cases where constitutional scholars
are are shouting at the mainstream. Media you people are
morons who don't understand us at. All then they shout at,
us you guys are are are missing part of the.
Point you're gonna see discrimination lawsuits run wild.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
Now although well, no, no, no no.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
No because that heightened level of scrutiny required was only
required of people in majority, groups, Right and so what
the nine nothing justice majority said is, no, no it's
the same for, everybody and you can't be against. That
if we have to work through some interesting ripple, effects,
(30:47):
fine but you gotta be in.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
FAVOR i might go To twitter and see what our
Friend tim the lawyer has said about, this and we
got other stuff on the waist to. Here we Hate
David muir around. Here he's the evening anchor of THE
Abc Evening. News he's just so schmarmy and just hard
to take to my self, satisfied highly. Biased combining that
with the fact THAT i know a lot of you
(31:09):
were into the baby eagle. Story you've, been you, know
sitting in there with the eagle cam on while you're
at work and seeing if the baby's. Flyer, now the
teas From David muir last night on the website that
did the baby eagle fly and just his SUPER i
don't know what it is about him that just turns my. Stomach, Yes, katie,
No I'm i'm agreeing with you, so BUT i didn't
(31:32):
hear his actual report because it was so annoyed me so.
Much but here's his.
Speaker 4 (31:35):
Report gray family of bald eagles in Southern california's Sam Bernardino.
Mountains the Baby eaglitz sisters Named sonny And, gizmo now
as big as their. Parents and Then, Monday, sonny who
is ninety days, old leaving the, nest so many asking
would that older sister ever come? Back twenty four hours
after she flew the, Coop sonny returned just a few hours,
(31:57):
Later mom and dad and little Sister gizmo together eating
a fish when from another camera you can see the
older Sister sonny flying, again the family looking up at,
her and Then sonny flying down joining her family for that,
meal and of course all eyes remain on that little,
sister waiting for her to take, FLIGHT i, think.
Speaker 3 (32:16):
And one of the eagles learned how to play acoustic
guitar apparently.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
Left The Mighty eagle. STORE i feel like everybody's reading
a little too much into the thoughts of some of
these eagles, expressions.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
Or they looked up to see the big sister return
and then continued eating a.
Speaker 1 (32:35):
Fish, Anyway so that's that. Story and you, know, no
no shade on anybody who's digging that, story because you
know what all the shades On David, murray baby eagle
murdering a. Mouse baby. Eagle trump is sitting with The
German chancellor right, now so he talked to she this.
(32:56):
Morning he put out a long Truth social about that.
Meeting said they're gonna they're gonna, meet or his people
are gonna, meet and the trade is blah blah. Blah
but he mentions at the end of his Truth, social
we did not discuss Discuss, Russia ukraine Or iran at.
All he, said he's now sitting with The German. Chancellor
surely some reporter is gonna ask to me the obvious.
(33:17):
Question a week, ago You German chancellor said The United
states was on board with the fact That ukraine can
fire missiles as deep Into russia as they. Want true or,
not because The White house has not commented on. That
SO i would like somebody to ask that, question but so,
far nothing exciting has. Happened one other Thing trump announced
(33:42):
last night a ban on a whole bunch of different.
Countries it's a little confusing because it looks like it's
based on the immigration immigration, Wise it's a little confusing
because it looks like this is based on the horrifying
attack In, Boulder colorado with the nut Job Jew hayton
want to be, killer you, know setting a bunch Of
(34:04):
jews on. Fire he was here. Illegally Then trump comes
out with a long list of countries who you're not
allowed to imm to migrate here from those countries without
special scrutiny on all these different sorts of. Things turns
out on the, List egypt is not on that. List
SO i find that a little. Confusing so is it
based on this guy or?
Speaker 3 (34:24):
Not BUT.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
I thought this was. Interesting Mark hauprin's analysis of analysis
of this on his news letter. Today this is immigration
issue number one hundred and ninety eight in which the
dominant media hasn't a clue about where the public opinion.
IS i guarantee you this is at least seventy, thirty
if not eighty twenty of people saying fine with, Me oh,
(34:48):
yeah especially if you could get, them you, know behind
closed doors. Anonymously maybe you wouldn't say it out loud
in some of your friends who you're afraid don't feel
the same, Way but lots of, people a majority of
people say fine with. ME i have no problem Their
muslim travel band to Me, jack.
Speaker 3 (35:04):
Including Such muslim hotspots As haiti and.
Speaker 1 (35:10):
Mianmar, So. Cuba the countries are it's a list of
countries where they got sloppy passport.
Speaker 3 (35:19):
Systems uh, yes, yeah you've got complete bands of travel
to THE us from a bunch of countries and then partial.
Bands you can't permanently, immigrate and there will be heightened,
scrutiny as you, said for a bunch of other.
Speaker 1 (35:41):
Ones and speaking of The Supreme, court at least The
News nation political analyst or a court ANALYST i saw
this morning said he thinks it's a slam dunk that
The Supreme court will say this is. Okay as opposed
to The muslim ban from the first.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
Term, yeah which was never true, Anyway but, yeah will
have to see how this plays, out but it seems
thoroughly reasonable to. Me we can't vet these people. Properly
they have a history of sending, provocateurs agents and, terrorists
so we're not gonna let them in. Anymore maybe fun
guys slipped into a. Backpack you don't. Know we're still
(36:17):
Letting chinese people.
Speaker 1 (36:18):
Come if you miss a, segment subscribe to our, Podcast
armstrong And Getty Onto Me armstrong And getty
Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George
Washington Broadcast Center. Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty arm Strong
and Getty and he Armstrong and Yetty.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
I'm a Chinese scientists entered the United States in July
with a poisonous fungus stash in his backpack. His destination
a laboratory at the University of Michigan, where he would
rendezvous with his girlfriend. Here's a conversation between the suspects
on a chat about the attempts to sneak the deadly
pathogen into the United States, teaching yang seeds must be
placed well, where to put it? I only have one
(00:45):
pair of shoes. The insole cannot be pulled off. Did
you bring just one pair of shoes? Three pair? Wear
one pair? Where did the seeds get put in the tube?
I put them in my Martin boots in a small bag,
the ziploc bag, very small. That's good. Just put it
in your shoes. I stuffed them in the shoes.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
That was the man and his girlfriend who claimed he
didn't know anything about the fungus, and then she said
I didn't ask him to bring it in. And then
they found the text messages which made it clear that
they knew they were doing something they shouldn't do, and
they were working together. That's why they have been arrested.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Chinese agent is trying to smuggle in a dangerous pathogen
to poison our crops. Although, as we mentioned a couple
hours ago, Greg from Sunnyvale with this note, come on,
you racists, you're perpetuating the increase in violent attacks on
Asian Americans. The fungus is just a discoloration of the
toenails of the pangle. And then was eating a bat
at the wet market. But we should probably ask doctor
(01:39):
Fauci to be sure.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Ooh, Supreme Court is releasing judgments. Got a couple of
headlines for you. Maybe we'll do a deep dive on
them a little bit later. One breaking news, the Supreme
Court unanimously blocked the Mexican government from proceeding with an
unusual lawsuit, says the Washington Post, that sought to hold
the major US firearms manufacturers accountable for gun violence in Mexico. Well,
(02:05):
always seemed stupid. I can't believe it had to go
all the way to Supreme Court. But anyway, that ain't
gonna happen. This one is interesting, though. The Supreme Court
rules for a straight woman in a job discrimination suit.
The justices rejected an appeals court's requirement that members of
majority groups meet a heightened standard to win employment discrimination cases.
(02:26):
If you're a dude or white, you have to have
some serious reasons for while you're a discriminated against prior.
Now it's just if you're discriminated to discriminate, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
This is another loud and unequivocal statement that racial discrimination, bigotry,
whatever is bigotry, you can't it doesn't matter who's on
the receiving end. We won't have it.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
I was about to say this, but I think John
Roberts actually said this recently. You can't fight discrimination with discrimination,
right and again the crap. Well, no, that's not true
because the dominant group and the heteropatriarchy blubb. No, we
don't let you discriminate based on sexual orientation or race.
In the United States. We don't do it. It's illegal. Well,
(03:12):
but the oppressor group, no, cut the crap. I think
the simple principle stick to it. I think closer to
his actual quote was you can't fix discrimination with discrimination,
which is right.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
You think obviously true. Amen, well done, soups, well done.
One more thought before I get into really interesting stuff
about sleep, just had to mention this. Have you seen
Corey Booker giving the Nazi salute?
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (03:39):
I have actually side by side with Elon Musk's quote
unquote Nazi salute there at the it was the inauguration
speech or the convention, whatever it was, when a big
deal was made of that.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
I mean side by side.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
It's like the famous Marx Brothers bit from Duck Soup,
where Groucho and Harpo are mirror images of each other.
It is precisely the same blanking gesture.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Here's a list. Cory Booker, who is a Democratic senator.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Yes, from New Jersey, the Spartacus speech, Google it, chet
gpt it. Anyway, here is a list of the news
networks who have not covered Cory Booker's Nazi salute. The
New York Times, CNN, Washington Post, MSNBC, NPR, USA Today, Reuter's, Axios,
and ABC News.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Why would I list them? Every single one of them
wrote stories on Elon Musk's Nazi salute. I know a family,
actually know a family, husband, wife, and child. Tipping point
for them leaving the country. They're actually leaving the country,
not kidding. Was Elon's Nazi salute? And if you don't
(04:51):
think it was a Nazi salute, you are blind. Obviously
it was a Nazi salute. Yeah, how did I don't
even know. I don't know. I don't know how to
explain that these are two smart people too.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
Yeah, Well, as I say all the time, intelligence and
wisdom are unconnected or not.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
That's from boxtremely try.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
Yes, yes, that was That was the title of Corey
worker speech, as I understand it. So, this is so interesting,
and I think it applies to all. I think it
applies to all. Of course, it applies to all of us.
The genetic components of sleep. Without eight or nine hours
of sleep, most of us would stagger around like zombies.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Well six to eight tonight and whatever.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
But according to a new study, some people have a
genetic mutation that makes them feel perfectly terrific after sleeping
only about half as much.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Well you kind of YadA YadA, six to nine. I
mean six is way different than nine. That gives you
an extra three hours a day of productivity or leap
or whatever you want to do. Sure sleeping, and this
is so important.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
Sleeping gives the body a chance to detox and clear
out the junk from your brain. And I've also heard
it described by neuroscientists as when you do your filing
and when you do your combining of ideas and finding
the patterns and that sort of thing.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
A lot of that stuff happens while you're asleep.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
Anyway, Well, the human body typically takes about eight or
nine hours to do this. Having what's called the short
sleep mutation makes its possible within just three to six hours.
There's this neuroscientist who researches gene mutations relaid to sleep.
He's now discovered in another mutation that contributes to natural
short sleep. They call it NSS and his field adding
to the five already known mutations that she and her
(06:38):
team previously discovered. So there are half a dozen of
them that you know. If you have them in various combinations,
you need much less sleep and you are absolutely fine.
Their genes involved in metabolism, energy, and your circadian rhythms.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
First of all, it's odd that it's always round number
six seventy nine as opposed to and a half. I
think I'm a six and a half guy. I can
get by in six quite easily. Seven is absolutely plenty,
So I think six and a half is my sweet spot.
So I might be a bit of a mutant myself
that in my tail, right right, I've got to touch
(07:15):
you keep well hidden. Most days I tuck it in
my pants, right right.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
We could get into some of the biochemistry of this,
but I don't think anybody remember it even if we
comprehended it.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
My question is this, if you could genetically edit the
embryo for your child, would you not choose? I don't know,
they only need seven hours of sleep as opposed to nine.
Why wouldn't you do that?
Speaker 3 (07:39):
You know, I'd certainly spend an hour or two reading
about it and making sure there's no downside.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
But yeah, yeah, that seems to me like it. I
actually damping in the ear. I think anytime you get
into that kind of playing god, you're getting dangerous. Yeah,
but that might just be old timey thinking. Maybe there's
absolutely no downside to choose. You know, this is just
a genetic change where where you know one is better
than the other period, and why wouldn't you want the better?
Speaker 3 (08:06):
As often in these things, well practically always, it has
to do with various hormones you've never heard of excreted
by your hypothalamus blah blah blah, and other ones. Some
keep you awake, some promote sleep, and it's well again,
the biochemistry. If we're starting to take too long, but
(08:29):
really super interesting. You know, I'm thinking about your would
you choose that for your child if you could? Old
timey thinking when we hear more and more and more
stories like I brought the other day about a little
baby was born with a very rare genetic condition that
the crisper technology is really helping, otherwise the kid would
(08:50):
probably already be dead.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Oh wow, yeah, beautiful little boy.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
And I think as we get more and more used
to the non Franknstinian uses of this stuff, the acceptance
of certainly you're really innocent, stuff like needing less, sleep well,
and eventually, yes, we will be designing babies with six
foot two, blonde hair, blue eyes, and super geniuses, et cetera.
(09:16):
But by then, you know, the other things that we
talk about all the time will have doomed the human race,
so it's ultimately feudal.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Back to you, speaking of which, have you seen the
trailers for the new Frankenstein movie? I have not. I
had no idea there was one. There is a new
Frankenstein movie coming up, directed by Gia more del Toro.
It was, you know, very famous in all respects. Oh yeah,
and it looks pretty pretty cool. I don't know if
it's a darker take on Frankenstein which he kills puppies
(09:44):
or something. I don't know, but or what, or just
the latest modern but you know, with the modern CGI
and everything like that, who knows. It could be great.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Yeah, the modern movie audience is not me and vice versa.
On the other hand, if you were to do something
completely non stylized, do this retelling in the Frankenstein story,
almost like a documentary, I think that would be incredibly
compelling and chilling and freaky, and you would never.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Forget it, you know what I mean. You've always got
to like really tart it up. And I've been meaning
to talk about this. I gotta find a spot to
talk about this, maybe in the One More Thing podcast.
But there are certain like dumb things that happen in
every movie I watch with my kids, and I just think,
how dumb do you think we are? Just really is
the audience is very very dumb?
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Is the audience as dumb as Hollywood thinks it isn't?
I don't believe so. I hang around a lot of
normal people. I'm a normal person. I don't think we're
that dumb.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
Well, in response, I would offer Trump's just trying to
keep those tax cuts going for millionaires and billionaires and
giant corporations the expense of the middle class and working people.
That's the Democrat parties view of the movie audience, which
is also the voter.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Yea, and they spend a hell of a lot of money.
Figure in this stuff out. Yeah, my son wants to
see the new Jurassic Park in the theater. There are
some movies that are better in a theater than at home,
no doubt. You know, if you're gonna watch you know,
some mostly talking love interest story with a deep plot
where they discuss philosophy. That's fine on your television, but
you're gonna watch. I can't ever think of the name
(11:30):
of the latest Marvel movie that I liked so much,
The Untouchables, the Furtibles, whatever, the work comeback that wasn't
comebacks anyway. But if you want to see a something
like that, yes, Katie, but nothing Crustables. If you want
to see the crustables. You want to see it in
the theater, in the big screen. There's just something more
impactful about it. Yeah, new Wes Anderson Anderson movie. Can't
(11:52):
wait to see that.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
That's sort of seeing on the big screen too, because
it's always so visual, visually striking his movies. If you
haven't been in that sentence was terrible. I was looking
at the clock and thinking you got to rush through that.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
It was a bad idea, folks. I apologize for my Sonce.
If you haven't been to the theater a while, though,
don't be surprised by the prices it's gonna get. You
take someone with you. You're gonna spend sixty bucks easily
eighty bucks.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Oh absolutely, so freaking you are. We smuggle our own
snacks in.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
Well, okay, I'm just fan for the ticket. If you
want to defraud an innkeeper and be part of the
criminal element, then the Supreme Court decisions and some other
things on the way.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
Armstrong yetie, if we don't have out of use for
people to come here needally for when the bills are home.
Speaker 5 (12:41):
Here, I'm going right now, We're not anybody because we
don't have enough people.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
Fill the jobs that we have right now.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
That is a representative Becca Ballant, a Democrat of Vermont,
explaining why we need lots of immigration, essentially because we're
not having babies and we're not, you know, growing as
a country without immigration, and we're not gonna have anybody
to wipe our hind ends when we are old.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
What did she say at the beginning? I couldn't quite
understand it well. Was she saying you don't need to
play it again because I won't be able to understand
it again this time? She said, we won't have people
to what wipe our heinees? That's what she said as yes, wow, okay, yes,
that's what you uh A powerful argument in favor of
opening the border. I can hire and illegal to do
(13:34):
that for me. I'm not sure I want to. I
feel like i'd feel vulnerable. What's the application process? Exactly?
What position do I need to get into for this
to happen? I think with the interview unfold, I think
I'm gonna feel very vulnerable. Wow, okay, I am doing
(13:55):
my Hey Katie, three days in a row now, I've
done my planks ever since you explained how to do
him and everything like that, so I'm a plank guy now,
oh good, yeah, yeah, So I'll see if I get
any benefits out of it. I don't know, this is
as your core feeling. I don't know. Thirty two different
muscle groups worked with a plank, so that's a lot
of muscle groups.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
That's I heard that on the podcast. That's fascinating. I
need to get back to it myself.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
I'd never done it before. I'll see if it does
me any good, or if I feel like it does
meaning good. So this story, maybe you've heard it or not.
Trump is attacking Biden and Republicans are attacking Biden for
a you know, did you know that you signed all
this stuff? You used the auto pen, which is perfectly
fine to use the autopen. Presidents since they invented it
(14:42):
have been using the auto pen sometimes. But it's it
is a different story that that doesn't that's not that
is a that is not a there's nothing to see
here revelation that other presidents have used the autopen. When
you're wandering around with your mouth agape and you don't
know where you are and you're using the autopanel lot
people wonder. Okay, So Joe Biden actually sent a statement
(15:06):
to Politico yesterday, to Politico that said, let me be clear,
I made the decisions during my presidency. I made the
decisions about the pardons, executive orders, legislation, and proclamations. Any
suggestion that I didn't is ridiculous and false. This is
nothing more than a distraction by Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans.
We're working to push disastrous legislation that would cut essential
(15:28):
programs like Medicaid and raise costs on American families, all
to pay for tax breaks for the ultra wealthy and
big corporations, that last part being a one hundred percent lie.
And there's lots of places you can go to for
analysis of the twenty seventeen tax cut and who it
benefited and who it didn't. Question, Sorry, did you say
the easter bunny wrote that statement? Well, right, question number one?
(15:50):
Did Biden write that or not? Of course, not the
statement claiming he made the statement. But anyway, I thought
Mark Halpern's summary of this was pretty good. Mark Alpern
and his newsletter today said amazing that after all we
have learned about Biden, how his presidency operated, that the
media is still in there. There is no evidence for
Trump's baseless accusations mode, instead of just reprinting what the
(16:12):
president says with like no. On the other hand, sources right,
there's a book out making it clear that five people
were running the White House. Didn't throw any of that in.
You just take the statement, the press release from the
former president and print it and on you go. That
is amazing. Yeah, it's a.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
Slight variation on the Republican's pounce technique.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
But you realize one of the most famous left leaning
journalists in America, Jake Tapper, is doing a two hour
podcast every day explaining how Joe Biden's brain didn't work
and other people were running the White House. He can't
ignore that, Politico. Apparently he can. Apparently you can just look.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
Just watch Supreme Court with a couple of big rulings,
one much bigger than the other. Front plus our four
can't wait to get to this. Science has figured out
how to fall in love?
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Oh wow, to fall in love? You want to be
in love, We'll tell you how. Wow. Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 5 (17:15):
They're the absolute worst group of people we've got in
our country, and it's not even close. I think we'd
all be better off with them going. But as I
was saying, my administration and I have been taking careful
note of the work of Colossal Labs, the biotech company
that resurrected the dire Wolf. If they can bring back wolves,
they can bring back dinosaurs.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Terrible lizard.
Speaker 5 (17:37):
That's what dinosaur means if you break it down. But
picture this, folks, velociraptor mounted border patrol agents. They'll rip
your head clear off. Pterodactyls patrolling the skies, velociraptors on
the ground. To prevent the immigration apocalypse, we may have
to counter with a dino apocalypse.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
Folks.
Speaker 5 (17:56):
It's true.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
I'm glad, Handsome new Glad you said, don't tell people
it's AI before we played, because it was much better
that way. Wow. That cause that if we didn't come
on and say it was AI, lots of people would say,
holy crap, did you hear the crazy s?
Speaker 3 (18:15):
Trump said today? Oh, surely they would have figured it out.
There's video too. You can see it at Armstrong and
Getdy dot com at Katie's Corner.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (18:23):
Yeah, there are a couple of new AI things out that.
I mean, as if you needed this. It's over, folks,
it's over.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
The ability to discern reality from creation in video and
audio and all. Oh I saw where they edited. No,
it's over, it's all. Everything's over soon. See that two
years or twenty years, I'm not sure, but it'll all
be over soon. So that's why I'm doing all my planks.
So my core is right here. Yeah, you gotta be ready.
(18:53):
You gotta have a good core for the apocalypse. No, dobactly.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
You know, as long as we're talking about that sort
of thing, why don't we do the and again, the
video element of this is pretty good too, and we'll
have it at Armstrong You getty dot Calm. This is
the Excelipt Michael Levin Man on the Street interviews from
the fifteen hundreds.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
What's lifel like for you right now?
Speaker 5 (19:18):
Woke up, stepped in, done, got taxed, and that was
before breakfast.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Do you enjoy your work?
Speaker 3 (19:26):
Ah?
Speaker 1 (19:27):
Eh, it's honest work and no one talks back. What
do you think of King Henry?
Speaker 5 (19:34):
Oh, well, he's very committed to.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
Marrying. How's the health situation looking? Well?
Speaker 4 (19:44):
Everyone I saw yesterday is dead today.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
How do you respond to the witch accusations? If I
were a witch, you'd already be a.
Speaker 4 (19:55):
Frog what's the biggest challenge for a noble woman these days?
Three hours to get dressed and still no pockets, flower shortage,
the oven is cursed and rats, lots of rats.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
What's life like for a farmer right now? Hard work,
saw back, but the soil is good this year. Might
even eat something with meat next week. Wow. That's yeah,
and all completely convincing mls from the year fifteen hundred.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
Yeah, amazing, amazing man on that road. Meanwhile, back in
the present, this is.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Huge. In fact, it is so.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
Devastatingly huge, I think most people will miss the hugeness
of it. The Supreme Court rejected an appeals court requirement
that members of a majority group meet a heightened standard
to win employment discrimination cases. I will give you the
particulars of the case and the facts. This is a
(21:02):
unanimous ruling.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
Wow, I didn't know that.
Speaker 5 (21:06):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
The Supreme Court reunanimously ruled in favor of a straight
woman who twice lost positions to gay workers, saying an
appeals court had been wrong to require her to meet
a heightened burden and seeking to prove workplace discrimination because
she was a member of a majority group. I've got
to admit to more than mild surprise that this is unanimous.
I thought at least Katanji Brown Jackson was down with
(21:30):
the whole woke a victim oppresser Parana.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
Yeah, that's awesome. I would like to know about the
wrangling behind the scenes. You know, back in the day,
the civil rights legislation was often nine zero, and they
work really hard to come up with something they could
all sign on to because it was so important. They
felt that they needed a unified front, so there couldn't
be any claims of well, it's just because he was
appointed by whoever, whatever, And I wonder if any of
(21:56):
that went on here. But again, I'm surprised that some
of the justice agree that having a different standard because
you're in the majority white man whatever is ridiculous discriminations
and discrimination period and you can't fix the past discrimination
with present discrimination.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Obviously speaking KBJ telling quote from her stay.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
Tuned for like ten seconds.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
The decision came two years after the Supreme Court struck
down race conscious admissions programs in higher education and admit
the Trumpet administration's fierce efforts excuse me to root out
programs that promote diversity, Oh my god, yeah, and could
make it easier for white people, men, and other members
of majority groups to pursue claims of employment discrimination. The
(22:43):
New York Times, obviously as usual, weighing in with a
little editorial in the midst of their reporting facts the
standards for proving workplace discrimination under federal civil rights law.
Just as Katanji Brown Jackson wrote for the Court, quote
does not vary based on whether or not the plaintiff
is a member of a majority group.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
Wow, or it doesn't wow, wow, I have renewed respect
for her, or in heightened respect, I guess it would
be me be fair. But that is something they're so
clearly right, all nine of them. This is you're right.
This is huge, This is absolutely huge. And how many
times have you heard we've played clips over the years.
(23:26):
You can't discriminate against a white person, Oh sure, Or.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
There's the only it's not racism of a black person
hates white person, or hates an Asian person or a
Chinese person hates a No, it can only be racism
if it is the majority group, the power group, having
prejudiced against the less powerful group. Literally, Ibramex Kendy would
tell you, no, there's no such thing as black racism,
(23:53):
it can't exist.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Read that quote again from the most woke leaning member
of the nine justices.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
Standards for proving workplace discrimination under federal civil rights law.
Quote does not vary based on whether or not the
plaintiff is a member of a majority group. This is
the liberals of the Supreme Court standing up for well
classical liberalism. Yeah, the idea that no no discrimination, bigotry
is wrong, no matter in what direction it's going.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
We are not repeat not down with the woke crowd. Boy,
the tentacles or ripples on the pond, or whatever you
want to use of this one could be huge.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
The perspective we're trying to give will not be repeated
in the bigfoot media, and that is a shame because
it's so important.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
But the perspective is.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
The whole woke paradigm, the whole neo Marxist victim oppressor,
white supremacist thing is held by such a small group
of people, such a small, angry, adamant, activist, radical group
of people. It's it's had an outsized shadow on the
(25:07):
American conversation for way too long, particularly in the wake
of the George Floyd mayhem. It is literally well figuratively, sorry,
a shadow cast that is so much larger than the
reality of the support for those ideas. And the Supreme
Court has just said, look, even our most liberal members
(25:29):
understand you cannot run a society based on the principles.
Every damn undergrad is being told that they're colleges and university.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
Yeah, that's why the nine ruling is so important for this,
So that it can't be a the Trump Court, the
out of control Maggot Court, et cetera, if it was
a six' three of a certain kind or. Something, yeah
so that this is, Awesome this is. AWESOME i want to.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
Tell you about the particulars of the case after a
quick word from our friends that simply save home. Security
when you're leaving your house for, work going to bed at,
night you want to know that the people you love
and the things you work so hard to get aren't
gonna be. Safe and simply safe New Active guard outdoor
protection helps stop breakings before they happen is.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Amazing, Well i'm gonna go with this angle on this.
Commercial just how sure Simply safe is that their product
is good with all of these different. Things sixty day
money back, guarantee no. Contracts that's not the way other
security systems. Work if you've ever had, one they lock
you in for a year or two because they're so
(26:33):
certain there's a good chance you're gonna DECIDE i don't
like this or it's too complicated to. Use Simply safe
is not too complicated to, use and you will like,
it and they know. That that's why there's no. Contract
super advanced.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Stuff we've told you about it, before and monitoring plans
start around a dollar a.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Day it's, amazing so.
Speaker 3 (26:50):
Much better visit simply safe dot com slash armstrong to
claim fifty percent. Off a new system with a professional
monitoring plan gets first month. Free that's simplysafe dot com slash.
Armstrong there's no safe like simply. Safe so this, case
which two appeals courts had ruled in the other, Direction,
wow you know we could go off on a tangent
(27:11):
there no.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Kidding what does that mean when other courts ruled the
other direction and The Supreme court says nine to, nothing you,
guys women are, wrong.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
Including KJB Kbjuh Judge. Katanji, yeah that is a rather stunning.
Indictment he uses mixing legal terms of our appeals courts
certainly some of them. Anyway the case was originally brought
(27:43):
By Marlene, ames who had worked for The Ohio department
Of Youth services overseas juvenile, corrections among other. Things after
a decade, there she became the administrative of a program
addressing prison. Rape five years, later she applied for a.
Promotion her supervisors turned her, down saying she lacked vision
and leadership. Skills they eventually gave the position to a
gay woman who had been at the department for a shorter, time,
(28:04):
and unlike Mss, aims lacked a college degree that doesn't prove.
Anything not long after denying her the new, position or
supervisors removed her from her existing, job telling her that
they had concerns about her leadership and offering her a
demotion that came with a substantial pay. Cut she was
replaced by a gay man with less, seniority and she
sued under the federal civil rights rights law that forbids employment,
(28:27):
discrimination among other, things on. Sex the text of the
law does not draw distinctions based on whether the person
claiming discrimination is a member.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
Of a majority. Group of, course it, doesn't.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
But some courts have required plaintiffs from majority groups to
prove additional elements if they lack direct evidence of discrimination
background circumstances that support the suspicion that the defendman is
that unusual employer who discriminates against the. Majority, OH i
see why that's a convoluted. Sentence anyway you need addition.
(29:00):
Evidence lower courts ruled against Mss ames on those. GROUNDS
Us court Of appeals for The Six circuits In cincinnati
said she could have satisfied the background circumstances requirement by
showing the decisions about her employment were made by a
member of a. Relative blah, blah blah. Blah they get
way into the. Weeds does this have any effect going
the other?
Speaker 1 (29:19):
Direction in THAT i know corporations sometimes are really scared
to fire A let's use an extreme, example black female gay.
WOMAN i don't need to say female and a woman
a black gay, woman because it's so easy to say
it was BECAUSE i was these. Things what does it
(29:40):
have any effect go in that? DIRECTION i wonder you,
know that's an interesting.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
POINT i think one of the unfortunate side effects of
this might, be now that you pointed out quite, aptly well,
Done jack Thinks i'm working on my Core if this
if this makes it easier in general to bring discrimination.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
Lawsuits i'm not sure or we're gonna love where that ends. Up,
yeah and that may.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
Be this could, be AND i hate to admit, This
this could be one of those cases where constitutional scholars
are are shouting at the mainstream. Media you people are
morons who don't understand us at. All then they shout at,
us you guys are are are missing part of the.
Point you're gonna see discrimination lawsuits run wild.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
Now although well, no, no, no no.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
No because that heightened level of scrutiny required was only
required of people in majority, groups, Right and so what
the nine nothing justice majority said is, no, no it's
the same for, everybody and you can't be against. That
if we have to work through some interesting ripple, effects,
(30:47):
fine but you gotta be in.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
FAVOR i might go To twitter and see what our
Friend tim the lawyer has said about, this and we
got other stuff on the waist to. Here we Hate
David muir around. Here he's the evening anchor of THE
Abc Evening. News he's just so schmarmy and just hard
to take to my self, satisfied highly. Biased combining that
with the fact THAT i know a lot of you
(31:09):
were into the baby eagle. Story you've, been you, know
sitting in there with the eagle cam on while you're
at work and seeing if the baby's. Flyer, now the
teas From David muir last night on the website that
did the baby eagle fly and just his SUPER i
don't know what it is about him that just turns my. Stomach, Yes, katie,
No I'm i'm agreeing with you, so BUT i didn't
(31:32):
hear his actual report because it was so annoyed me so.
Much but here's his.
Speaker 4 (31:35):
Report gray family of bald eagles in Southern california's Sam Bernardino.
Mountains the Baby eaglitz sisters Named sonny And, gizmo now
as big as their. Parents and Then, Monday, sonny who
is ninety days, old leaving the, nest so many asking
would that older sister ever come? Back twenty four hours
after she flew the, Coop sonny returned just a few hours,
(31:57):
Later mom and dad and little Sister gizmo together eating
a fish when from another camera you can see the
older Sister sonny flying, again the family looking up at,
her and Then sonny flying down joining her family for that,
meal and of course all eyes remain on that little,
sister waiting for her to take, FLIGHT i, think.
Speaker 3 (32:16):
And one of the eagles learned how to play acoustic
guitar apparently.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
Left The Mighty eagle. STORE i feel like everybody's reading
a little too much into the thoughts of some of
these eagles, expressions.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
Or they looked up to see the big sister return
and then continued eating a.
Speaker 1 (32:35):
Fish, Anyway so that's that. Story and you, know, no
no shade on anybody who's digging that, story because you
know what all the shades On David, murray baby eagle
murdering a. Mouse baby. Eagle trump is sitting with The
German chancellor right, now so he talked to she this.
(32:56):
Morning he put out a long Truth social about that.
Meeting said they're gonna they're gonna, meet or his people
are gonna, meet and the trade is blah blah. Blah
but he mentions at the end of his Truth, social
we did not discuss Discuss, Russia ukraine Or iran at.
All he, said he's now sitting with The German. Chancellor
surely some reporter is gonna ask to me the obvious.
(33:17):
Question a week, ago You German chancellor said The United
states was on board with the fact That ukraine can
fire missiles as deep Into russia as they. Want true or,
not because The White house has not commented on. That
SO i would like somebody to ask that, question but so,
far nothing exciting has. Happened one other Thing trump announced
(33:42):
last night a ban on a whole bunch of different.
Countries it's a little confusing because it looks like it's
based on the immigration immigration, Wise it's a little confusing
because it looks like this is based on the horrifying
attack In, Boulder colorado with the nut Job Jew hayton
want to be, killer you, know setting a bunch Of
(34:04):
jews on. Fire he was here. Illegally Then trump comes
out with a long list of countries who you're not
allowed to imm to migrate here from those countries without
special scrutiny on all these different sorts of. Things turns
out on the, List egypt is not on that. List
SO i find that a little. Confusing so is it
based on this guy or?
Speaker 3 (34:24):
Not BUT.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
I thought this was. Interesting Mark hauprin's analysis of analysis
of this on his news letter. Today this is immigration
issue number one hundred and ninety eight in which the
dominant media hasn't a clue about where the public opinion.
IS i guarantee you this is at least seventy, thirty
if not eighty twenty of people saying fine with, Me oh,
(34:48):
yeah especially if you could get, them you, know behind
closed doors. Anonymously maybe you wouldn't say it out loud
in some of your friends who you're afraid don't feel
the same, Way but lots of, people a majority of
people say fine with. ME i have no problem Their
muslim travel band to Me, jack.
Speaker 3 (35:04):
Including Such muslim hotspots As haiti and.
Speaker 1 (35:10):
Mianmar, So. Cuba the countries are it's a list of
countries where they got sloppy passport.
Speaker 3 (35:19):
Systems uh, yes, yeah you've got complete bands of travel
to THE us from a bunch of countries and then partial.
Bands you can't permanently, immigrate and there will be heightened,
scrutiny as you, said for a bunch of other.
Speaker 1 (35:41):
Ones and speaking of The Supreme, court at least The
News nation political analyst or a court ANALYST i saw
this morning said he thinks it's a slam dunk that
The Supreme court will say this is. Okay as opposed
to The muslim ban from the first.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
Term, yeah which was never true, Anyway but, yeah will
have to see how this plays, out but it seems
thoroughly reasonable to. Me we can't vet these people. Properly
they have a history of sending, provocateurs agents and, terrorists
so we're not gonna let them in. Anymore maybe fun
guys slipped into a. Backpack you don't. Know we're still
(36:17):
Letting chinese people.
