Speaker 1 (00:02):
Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George
Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty. Armstrong and
Getty and no He Armstrong and Getty come out to Minneapolis.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
What you won't find is a hellhole, but a beautiful city.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
It is a city in a park.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
You won't find a community that is tearing down Minneapolis
and our Somali Americans. You will find a group of
people that is uplifting Minneapolis and.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Is proud to be here.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
They are proud to call this extraordinary place home.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
I'm sure they're happy to call it home.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
You can defraud the government for a million a billion
dollars and get away with it.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
Oh yeah, you can be born in Somalia, come to
America and get rich for doing nothing except stille. Yeah
that's great. Not that all Somalis are that way, certainly not.
But yeah, there's a gygnormous problem. That was the may
of Minneapolis, Jacob Fray. It's spelled like Fry. But he
wants to be different. I'm guessing is.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
He denying that the billion dollars were stolen or is
he just trying to.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
He's responding to Trump's hyperbole, polish a unfortunate object and
try to make it come.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
A little better.
Speaker 4 (01:18):
Now he's just responding to Trump saying that it's a
hell hole and they've ruined Minneapolis and blah blah blah. Anyway,
I found this troubling and interesting and absolutely has the
ring of truth about it.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
It's in the free press for what it's worth.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
Dominic Green, who's an excellent writer, had a long conversation
with a well respected historian by the name of David Betts.
He's a historian at King's College in London, and he
is an expert in what he prefers to call civil
conflict or extreme civil discord, as opposed to civil war,
(01:58):
because these things don't start when Fort Sumter is fired upon,
for instance, Alowi's an expert on our civil war too
interestingly enough, and you.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Know it's dramatic, but it would take too long.
Speaker 4 (02:10):
They spell out a scenario wherein a gas mane explodes,
small fires breakout at substations that supply Britain's capital with electricity,
Heathrow shuts down, the lights go off in the tube,
the British Pound plunges, cell phones go down, etcetera.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
Etcetera.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
Chaos spreads rumors, blah blah blah, craziness. You see mass
gangs of white people and Muslims facing off, if your
phone still works, burning vehicles. The Prime Minister addresses the
nation on the BBC, though most people can't see it.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
The King assents to calling out the army.
Speaker 4 (02:42):
They set in very dramatic form chaos. But it's not
Russia that did it. It's not homegrown islam As terrorists.
Its members of the indigenous English majority rising in a
nativist revolt against the state, the immigrants, the cities, and
the Muslim minority in particular. And this David Best, the historian,
(03:04):
says that's how England's civil war begins. And he says
it's already underway, it's happening. The tipping point has already
been passed. And this guy, he's studied civil wars and
civil conflicts for twenty five years, and he says, the
civil conflict in contemporary Western Europe, and it's not just Britain,
(03:27):
will be low intensity, asymmetric and hit and run, multi
factional terrorism and thuggery on a scale that no state
can contain.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
And no, this is not just a British problem.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
If the classical pattern of civil conflict applies, then, according
to Betts, Britain, France, Belgium, Scandinavia, Ireland and Germany are
all heading for disaster.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
It sounds like the Irish Civil War from the early
twentieth century. Yeah, similar sort of thing.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
Yeah, And interestingly enough, this guy, for the first twenty
four years of his academic career wrote specialty articles on
this stuff and was respected but not super well known
outside academia. But over the last few months his work
has attracted a great deal of public attention, and in
contrast to certain other grand standing fake historians, I think
his reaction is telling. He says that was surprising and
(04:17):
a little awkward. He's not used to it, and he's
not a grand standard. So all right, here is your
three stage explanation of Britain's crisis. Obviously, Jack Jump, in
anytime first state sponsored mass immigration, especially of Muslims, has
wrought quote a mass societal and cultural alteration of values
(04:39):
and demography.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Yeah, and then you're throwing people in jail for pointing
it out on Twitter or whatever.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Oh, we'll get there, Okay, we will get there. Oh,
you're absolutely right.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
So can anybody argue that first statement, state state sponsored
mass immigration has brought a mass social and cultural alteration
of values in democracy demography. As a result, the indigenous
majority perceives themselves as losers. This sense of displacement, says
(05:10):
mister Betts, is quote a powerful propellant to civil conflict.
Then the Balkanization of Western European societies is bet says,
now fairly obvious for starters. There are the notorious no
go zones bets prefers. And this is a great term,
areas of negotiated policing, because you'd call them no go zones,
(05:34):
these heavily Muslim areas and people say no, no, no,
you can walk through there and all, and the authorities
are still there, but they have to negotiate how they're
going to police with the new local overlords and the
new culture and stuff like that. Anyway, French and Swedish
police admit that many immigrant heavy areas are beyond state control.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
They have said so.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
Wow, when police entered, they must either seek permission from
community leaders or come in force. In Britain, there are
numerous urban areas in which the police operate quote under
a kind of negotiation that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
It is, it is.
Speaker 4 (06:18):
And you know, just to depart from the European situation,
that reminds me a little bit of some of the
efforts to enforce immigration law going into say, parts of
la where the local populace rises up and won't permit
it to happen and harasses threatened shoots, or just interferes
with the ice guys.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
Anyway.
Speaker 4 (06:37):
So that's the first stage. In the second stage, and
this is what I've been yelling about in Britain now
for a long time.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
The state's effort to control.
Speaker 4 (06:47):
Social fracture backfires by delegitimate delegitimizing it in the eyes
of the majority. The government, the state delegitimizes itself in Britain,
that means a two tier justice system that placates Muslims
while downgrading the rights and suppressing the objections of the majority.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Exactly what you're talking about.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
Jack Posting things critical, pointing out that you have these
no gozones.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
Can get you arrested in Britain.
Speaker 4 (07:16):
Yeah, and this leads to a decline in social trust
and an increase in lawlessness.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
There are some high profile examples of for instance, a
Muslim immigrant committing a crime. Then somebody commenting harshly about
it online and the person who commented on it getting
a stronger penalty and more time in jail than the
person that committed the grit.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (07:36):
Great example, man burns Koran, Muslim stabs him for it.
The penalty for the burning was much more severe than
the stabbing anyway, So.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Where were we okay?
Speaker 4 (07:48):
So the state tries to placate Muslims, two tier justice,
prosecuting people for posting online, et cetera. A government that
breaks its unwritten contract with the people forfeits its legitimacy,
and that leads to the third stage. The majority will
attempt to force the elites to return to its historic
pattern of serving their interests and values. This, Bets believes
(08:09):
is where Britain and Western Europe now are. He's not
alone in fearing the worst. In July, the Financial Times
and there could be no more serious news outlet than
the Financial Times describe parts of Britain as quote a
tinderbox and a powder keg Wow. Lisa and Andy, the
Culture Secretary told the New Statesmen that the cities of
(08:30):
northern England are so tense they could go up in flames.
Man I subscribed to the Financial Times for a while,
but it's pretty dang expensive and I stopped.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
But maybe I should jump.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
Back in robbery story so dry, the possible sparks are obvious.
In twenty five two young men of Mallian Mallyan and
Tunisian extraction were electrocuted to death as they ran from
police in the Paris suburb of unpronounceable. Three weeks of
rioting followed in two hundred and seventy four towns across France.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Did you hear that?
Speaker 4 (09:04):
Three weeks of rioting in two hundred and seventy four
towns across France. The rioters targeted police firefighters, injuring one
hundred and twenty six of them. In twenty eleven, London
police shot an armed mix raced gangster in his car
after a pursuit. The resulting protests turned into five days
of rioting across the country. I asked Betts if, given
Britain's inflammable social mix, it's security services have sought his advice.
(09:26):
He replied no, they have not. There's a great dealmor
will dear a deal more detail to this. We can
post the link. You may get paywalled. I think he.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Makes an outstanding case.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
In Britain's August twenty twenty four riots, Gangs of black
clad Muslim men march through the towns in northern England
chanting Aloha akbar. Police officer caught on camera advising them
to return to their weapons to the mosque so they
don't so the cops don't have to do anything.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
All sorts of examples.
Speaker 3 (10:03):

have to have turns.
Speaker 4 (11:55):
Apply, right, that's the magic, the magical incantation.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
Here's your breaking on both ends. Yes, well, if there
are more details, we'll get them to you coming up.
But do you remember when January sixth happened. One of
the great mysteries around January sixth and the uprising in
the Capitol and all that sort of stuff, was there
were some pipe bombs planted at the RNC and the DNC,
And people have been wondering conspiratorially for a long time
who put those bombs there were?
Speaker 1 (12:21):
They reeled that the FBI plant them were blah blah blah.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Anyway, the FBI has arrested a suspect in that investigation, finally, finally,
so more details on that, among other things on the way.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
Stay here. Welly old English sheep dog. Eighty pounds of
hair and two pounds of actual dog there.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
As I have said before, the judge picks through all
of that hair and finds only one eye.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
He's got the wrong end of the dog. That was
that actually from the Dog show? Yeah? Yeah, the guy who.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
Played Jay Peterman from Seinfeld doing a little color commentary
for the dog show.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
The Great John O'Hurley, Oh Lane.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
So they got the biggest dog show of the year
is on Thanksgiving. I don't know if you knew that,
and if you're not watching football, somehow it ended up
on our TV for a while at our family gathering.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
It's like all the dog shows. You got women in.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
Very bland sensible outfits and flat shoes jogging around with
some sort of weird concoction the big Hall of Dog
and then some regular dogs you got just like everyone's
while you'll just have a beagle or something you're recognized,
but most of them are just freaks.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
Well, and then you got the final decision between some
monster thing that's half a horse and then a tiny
little fur ball, and they say the fur ball is
better at being a fur ball than the horse things
at being a horse, and that's your best in show.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
I guess.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
The whole thing is so twisted, and always has been.
It's amazing that it continues, the inbreeding and the cutting
their ears and tails off and stuff.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
It's just as horrible.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
It's amazing how unpopular motts are when it's so much
better an option in so many ways.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
In so many ways, including how cheap they are to
start with, The FBI has arrested a suspect in the
January sixth pipe bomb case. If you're into the conspiracy stuff,
you've probably been following this for a while because a
lot of the conspiracy people think that the FBI planted
this or as part of a deal or thousand trained
mules or whatever that one documentary was.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Fed. Officials today arrested.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
A man who is believed to be the person who
planted the pipe bombs near the Democratic and Republican National
Committee headquarters the night before the January sixth riots. The
arrest could bring closure to this mystery that has vexed
law enforcement for five years and spawned many many conspiracies.
Despite interviewing more than one thousand people and having video
(14:55):
footage showing a person sitting on a bench removing what
appears to be a pipe bomb from their bag, they've
not been able to solve the crime. The suspect is
believed me from Virginia. That's the only thing they know
so far. A couple of people who were familiar with
the investigation leaked to The Washington Post I'm sure we'll find.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Out more later today.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
Pam Bondi is going to have a press conference and
we'll probably get all kinds of details then.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
So one of theirs are one of ours cons Philippines.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
That's what everybody wants to know, right. Was it a
MAGA person or an anti Mega person? But he bombed
or tried to bomb both?
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Right? All right?
Speaker 3 (15:27):
So the FBI has said that the bombs were capable
of hurting people had they been detonated, they weren't. That's
always been a mystery too. Why did you make bombs
that were capable of going off, take the time to
plant them, and then they didn't go off during one
of the craziest thing that's ever happened in American history?
And that the discovery of these bombs apparently diverted law
enforcement attention from the Capitol before the mom mob breached
(15:52):
the capital. So were they just there to be found
and distract law enforcement to make it easier to get
into the capital. Leads you to believe that they're working
with the Proud Boys or somebody who had a plan to.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Do this, right, not Trump.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
Yeah, it will be interesting to see what they said.
The lack of arrests as the Washington Post has spurred
baseless claims among Republicans, including President Donald Trump, with many
suggesting that the FBI did not want to solve the
case because a member of an anti fascist group, not
a Trump supporter, planted the bombs. It's hard to imagine
(16:29):
why Antifa would plant those bombs to distract the cops
from the if.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
That's indeed what happened. That's the other thing.
Speaker 4 (16:37):
Although they are down with all of Western civilization, including
Republicans and Democrats, so that would make sense.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Actually, antifar are violent Marxist.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
Dan Bungino, who's the current FBI director deputy director, had
been saying for years on his podcast that he believed
that the FBI knew the identity of the bomber and
that it was an inside job.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
With the FBI. That was his take before he was
with the FBI. Now he's with the FBI. It'll be
interesting to see what the FBI has to say.
Speaker 4 (17:08):
Turns out it was Jeffrey Epstein planted the bombs.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
There's a twist. I was reminding the other day.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
You remember the giant Anthrax scare, which included some attacks
that killed people with anthrax.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
They never cut that person back to this one.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
FBI officials have said that the investigation was complicated by
a number of factors, including that the incident occurred during
the pandemic. I'd forgotten that, and that the bomber was
wearing a mask, which did not raise alarms for anyone
who might have seen them, because you know, the whole
pandemic thing, So you could walk down the street with
a mask on in a backpack and plant bombs without
anybody wondering why that guy got.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
A mask on A good point.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
Additionally, the person placed the pipe bombs hours before they
were discovered, leaving plenty of time to escape, So that
was the goal was to get out of there was
the goal to not have them go off though sure
seems like it, don't know, I'll be looking forward to
facts emerging.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
Yeah. Quite.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
The homeless camp in one of the nicest areas of
LA that we want to tell you about, and residents
finally got fed up with that decided to do something
about it.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
You can't blame them and other stuff on the way.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
If you missed a segment, get the podcast Armstrong and
Getty on demand.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 6 (18:19):
Long Awaited movement in Marina del Rey. Bulldozers ripping through
a homeless and cannon that had grown out of control,
full of trash, booze, furniture, and much more.
Speaker 7 (18:29):
They are defecating in the area like they are choosing
to live there.
Speaker 4 (18:32):
Once you had your first report, some movement happened, so
hopefully that will continue in this area, be cleaned out.
Deficating you say, defecating, I suspected as much. That's Matthew
Seedorf of Fox eleven LA talking about this homeless camp
in Marina del Ray, which is a very nice area
that I have stayed many times, including deep sea fishing
(18:55):
with both my sons a couple of days.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
Did you defecate there? And I did that question.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
I did not have a bottles, tents or a nor
did I defecate. Well, I defecated, but in a normal
sort of civilized way in private.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
Yes, I'm not going to claim I don't. That'd be weird.
Let's get back to I retract the question. Sorry, let's
get back to the Fox eleven report.
Speaker 6 (19:20):
Last month, we exclusively reported on the tent city sandwich
between lanes of the ninety freeway. How many people do
you estimate are living over there.
Speaker 7 (19:28):
One day, I can see one hundred and fifty. Some
days there's only thirty shooting up drugs right.
Speaker 6 (19:32):
There, open drug use, burglaries, violence, then flames pushed fear
into nearby neighborhoods.
Speaker 7 (19:38):
I would like to live in a society where, you know,
we don't have to hound repeatedly to get just some
basic you know, community services.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
Done ruin the entire country Newsome, twenty twenty eight.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
So this, you know, nobody likes this when it happens anywhere.
When it happens someplace nice, then some people are like,
how could this possibly be here? I feel that way
when they're anywhere, like, how could this camp possibly be here?
Full of dogs and tents and defecation and everything like that?
Speaker 1 (20:16):
How is this possibly society? Right? Right?
Speaker 4 (20:19):
And in some places, you know, two blocks away, somebody
got cited for their mailbox not being painted right exactly.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
And let's hear the way you failed to get your
raby shot for your cat.
Speaker 6 (20:33):
Last summer, we were with Governor Gavin Newsom as he
cleared an encampment and urged cities across the state to
do the same. This Marina del Rey homeless campsite on
State land.
Speaker 8 (20:44):
We have already had two fatalities with people coming and
going from that area along the freeway.
Speaker 6 (20:49):
LA Councilwoman Tracy Park says she has urged the state
to do something for more than a year.
Speaker 1 (20:54):
My fear here.
Speaker 8 (20:56):
Is that when the state's work is done, is just
going to return. I have asked the state and the
governor and Calchowan's for those long term solutions, but so
far we have not been able to find the path forwards.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
Come on, Texas, come on Florida. You want this, don't you.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
We need to.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
Not redistribute wealth, redistribute homeless people from California. We have
the half the homeless people in the entire country here
in one state.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
That's not fair. Question of fairness.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
When will the states that are rich with junkies pay
their fair share. That's so incredibly frustrating. That's the modern age.
We've been told, don't deal with anything yourself, call the authorities,
don't defend yourself against a bully, tell an adult, blah
(21:55):
blah blah.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
But then the.
Speaker 4 (21:56):
Authorities do jack squat because they're butt clown.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
Well, it's a word of the day.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
I think Katie was just feeling too polite it's probably
because she's with child.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
She didn't want to say.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
Ask clown trying to clean up your act for Okay,
I'm doing my past, little Jack Joe Michael Michael, because
you shouldn't have avocate around and you can't.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Use your usual uh fil so much cleaning up to
do so much cleaning.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Well, that just the given away civilization is such a
weird thing that who saw that coming?
Speaker 1 (22:31):
Who saw it coming? Giving away civilization?
Speaker 3 (22:34):
As I gave my loud lecture at the CVS the
other day, to the horror of my kids, to everybody's
standing around in the aisle and everybody's looking at me
like I'm.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
A crazy person. Good for you. I do this a lot.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
It's one of the great things about being old. You
just don't care about this sort of stuff. But I
got my arms out and I'm saying, and there's just
people now, and they're all look at me like, is
this guy gonna hurt me? But you know, it didn't
used to be this way where you had to get
an employee to unlock your deodor.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
It never been this way.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
We managed to go hundreds of years without needing to
do this all of a sudden, Now we have to
do it. Doesn't that seem weird? Doesn't it seem weird
that we now have to lock up our toothpaste? Does
not bother anybody.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
We've given away civilization well right, and I think it's
of a piece. We were talking about the coming British
Civil war that may have started already, and I was
thinking more about the idea of negotiated policing zones and
no go zones. And like the giant rip off in Minneapolis,
we've been talking about the Somalis who were ripping off
the state for a billion dollars in the taxpayers, and
(23:35):
anybody who started to ask questions was told, don't anger them.
Don't anger the Somalies, You'll a lose their vote. Bad
things could happen to you. Blah blah blah. That's a
zone of negotiated like law enforcement. That's another great example
of you got Britain where the authorities in the media
(23:57):
conspired to keep it quiet that Muslim gangs from Pakistan
we're raping their little girls and teenage girls. If a
society has been bullied and cowed into silence when their
girls are getting raped, you can see why people would
(24:17):
resent that a little bit and start to feel like
they've been betrayed. That's kind of a different aspect of
the same thing. But we've been shamed. We the West,
Western civilization have been shamed by progressives on the one hand,
or you know, the progressives in concert with some of
the religious minorities in saying.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
No, you don't get to stand up for your principles.
Speaker 4 (24:40):
That makes you a bad person to stand up for civilization. Shame.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
Now, I'm not ashamed, not even a little bit.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
It is kind of funny that everybody looked at me
like I'm a crazy person. I'm a crazy person for
pointing out that we now lock up our toothpaste and
you have to get employed to unlock it.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
Now, that's normal to just accept that.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
Keep your mouth shut and just man, Black civilization fall aparteople.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
I'm not saying anything.
Speaker 5 (25:10):
Don't say anything, crazy man.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
That's Joe's impersonation of if a sheep could talk.
Speaker 4 (25:17):
I thought that was self evident. And see, I think
my art speaks for itself, sir. I gotta say something
in here, Jack, You're not gonna die of sickness or disease.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
You're gonna die just because you couldn't take life anymore.
Speaker 4 (25:31):
Yeah, Oh, you just couldn't take it. His head'll explode,
as will mine. Although I you know, I vent by
uh fighting against this stuff. Oh that reminds me wish
I should have gotten to this earlier. We hear semi
regularly that following the news, especially if you follow it
(25:56):
a lot, begins to really stress you out, stress people out,
stress me out. It's true, and I came across some
really good wisdom about how to deal with that. And
I mean it's it's really good. Under sells it. It's brilliant.
We could get into that hour four if we wanted.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
It's loose, it's very loose.
Speaker 3 (26:17):
So we got the breaking news story today they finally
arrested somebody in the whole pipe bombs the night before
January sixth story. Those of you who have been into
the whole January sixth conspiracy thing, I been on that
story forever.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
What's the deal with the pipe bombs?
Speaker 3 (26:30):
Somebody put actual working pipe bombs at the DNC and
the RNC the night before. They didn't go off. They've
never arrested anybody. What's the deal, Well, they've wrested somebody.
The name is out doesn't mean anything to anybody. It's
Brian Cole of Virginia. What we all want to know.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Is he one of ours or one of theirs. That's
the whole story. Does he own a MAGA hat? Did
he email? Does he have an Antifa sticker on his
coffee mug? This is what we need to know. Is
he on Blue Sky or Twitter? Exactly? Yeah? Likely?
Speaker 4 (27:02):
Yeah, So more details as they came, as they come out.
A special message to the folks of Marina del Rey,
where the junkie camp was, or anywhere particularly in Blue States,
although everywhere really needs simply safe where you want to
protect your loved ones and your stuff against break ins.
The amazing thing about simply well, one of the amazing
things is that they protect you before there's a break in,
(27:25):
not just when you're broken into an alarm goes off.
You got your AI cameras to detect threats early. Then
they immediately alert the live agents, real people who speak
directly to the intruders, and if they don't leave immediately,
the cops are on their way. That's common sense, that's
real security. That's simply safe.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
The sensors and the cameras and all the different sort
of stuff and catching people before they get in that
that is simply safe. It's simple to set up, it's
simple to use. There's no contract because they're so confident
that you're in to stay with the program like I have.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
And it's not expensive.
Speaker 4 (27:58):
It's less expensive and like fifty times better than the
old systems.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
Simply say for both believers. It's great.
Speaker 4 (28:04):
And this month take fifty percent off any new system.
It's one of the best prices you'll ever see for
simply Safe. Don't miss it. It's simply safe dot com.
Slash armstrong again. Simply Safe dot com slash armstrong to
lock in your discount. There's no safe like simply Safe.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
Got Twitter's hilarious when stories like this come out. So
they arrest this guy named Brian Cole, and you got
all kinds of videos with people that may or may
not be him, probably aren't at this point, saying all
kinds of different things to back up whatever your narrative is.
And you're hoping to get out there, you know, before
the truth has chance to put on.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
Its shoes, as they say.
Speaker 4 (28:37):
So you've got like counts claiming that he's a school
teacher from Bellingham, Washington, non Antifa member, and then you
got to count saying yeah, exactly, he's a guy from
Arkansas on he hosted a Trump ralliot. Okay, yep, yep,
that's exactly right. You unplugged the internet, you predict the wasteland.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
That reminds me.
Speaker 3 (28:57):
I came across a Thomas Jefferson quote about out the
news the other day that I'd never heard before.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
We quote the Mark Twain, which I just referenced a
little bit ago.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
Mark Twain, if you didn't catch that on the whole,
if you read the news, if you don't read the newspaper,
you're uninformed. If you read it, you're misinformed. There's even
a better version of that from Thomas Jefferson.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
I'll dig that up. We'll get to that when we
come back, and also we'll.
Speaker 3 (29:20):
Have more details on Brian Cole. Is one of ours
or one of them, of one of theirs is the
Antifa and MAGA. We need to know this, and then
what we'll do we'll build a story around that, a narrative,
and we'll condemn the other side exactly.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
They're wrong, they're right. Look at them.
Speaker 4 (29:39):
He's a perfect example of them or us or not us.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
Stay tuned, so they've arrested somebody in the whole pipe
bombs story from January sixth. The night before January sixth,
a couple of pipe bombs were laid down. If you're
in the conspiracies, you've been following that for a long
time and so and trying to figure out what's happening.
It's all breaking news right now. They got a guy,
(30:04):
they got a name. He's from Virginia. At least some
pictures I just saw that look to be from a
legitimate news site.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
He was arrested at his parents' home. He's thirty years old.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
Looks like a really nice neighborhood, like super big, giant,
rich people homes.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (30:18):
And there was a description in one of them that
you gotta take this with a giant grain of salt
because this is early moments. But one of the news
sources saying is described as an anarchist. It would not
be surprising if a rich thirty year old who still
lived with his parents in a giant mansion was an
anarchist who got involved.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
In this stuff somehow. That's funny.
Speaker 4 (30:36):
I was just reminding myself to post up in the
studio the Matt tayebe quote I love so much. We're
in the upper class twits promoting revolution space is there
no defense against the ignorant rich?
Speaker 1 (30:51):
And I brought up.
Speaker 3 (30:52):
This just because of taking in news and trying to
figure out what's real and what's not. This Thomas Jefferson
quote that I don't know if I'd ever heard before,
similar to the Mark Twain quote that came many years later,
the man who never looks into a newspaper is better
informed than he who reads them, inasmuch as he who
knows nothing is nearer to truth than he whose mind
(31:13):
is filled with falsehoods and errors.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
Wow, that's just like your opinion, man. So it's always
been that way.
Speaker 4 (31:24):
Yeah, Yeah, it's always been difficult to find the truth.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Yeah. Well.
Speaker 3 (31:30):
And and the fact that, because I've run in this
to myself, somebody who doesn't look into these stories is
easier to talk to than somebody who does, because their
minds are filled with falsehoods and errors. As Thomas Jefferson said,
I ran into that recently, somebody whose mind was so
completely made up in the wrong direction about a certain controversy,
(31:50):
as like, oh man, unpacking that would take a long
time never mind. Yeah, hm, so I'm gonna go with
Brian Cole is an anarchist and on their side.
Speaker 4 (32:02):
All right, So the news can be frustrating and stressful, right,
the never ending everybody at everybody's throat and such. And
I came across a couple of pieces of wisdom lately
that I thought were really, really good and fairly easy
to understand. You can do your own research to you know,
get the three hundred level course if you will. But
(32:25):
here's the first day in class intro. Two things, two things,
And this is like a superpower practically. You follow the news,
you're stressed, frustrated, whatever. Two techniques number one. The confusions
(32:46):
would tell you. Not that I'm no Chinese comedy lover,
but the philosophy of Confucius was interesting in a lot
of ways. I don't know much about it, but one
of the things they suggest is master yourself. Don't try
to master the world or worry about the world.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
Work on you.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
Think about what your priorities are, what the ideal you
would look like, and work on that and goodness will
flow probably outward into the world if you do that.
Second thought, local, local, local, You're not going to do
anything about a likely you know the violence in where's
(33:31):
the you know whatever, or or the horrors of the
controversy over there. But you can affect your local school board.
You can clean up your local park. You can volunteer
and mentor some kids who might be teetering on criminal
or productive citizen. Look to your your small town, look
(33:54):
to you, to where you live. It's super empowering. For
one thing. I've done enough of it to know it
makes you feel great and you realize, oh, instead of
just fretting and flipping through Twitter, which is a good
way to make yourself insane, have an effect, think small.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Back to the breaking news Steve Bannon is doing Steve
Bannon is doing his live podcast now and he says
that the guy has ties to it Antifa.
Speaker 4 (34:21):
So you can take that to the bank, thanks Steve. Now,
a lot of people won't believe it just because it
came out of your maw.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
Oh boy, or it's yeah, it's see the true. It's
arm percent not true.
Speaker 3 (34:32):
And then this other news source, some well known person
on Twitter says the pipe bomb was planted to distract
cops on January sixth, more bad news for MAGA. So
that'll be the battle all day.
Speaker 4 (34:43):
Long this guy, as Thomas Jefferson said, social media is useless.
Speaker 3 (34:51):
It'll make you nuts. It's almost got to be tied
into the uprising on January sixth, though, doesn't it. I mean,
I was just thinking, it's funny you should bring that up.
Speaker 4 (35:02):
I was just thinking, how wild would it be if
the guy's like, no, I'm like an save the whales guy.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
I had no.
Speaker 4 (35:07):
Idea there was something going on in Jauary. I'm pressed
off about the whales. Yeah, there's no chance it's not related.
Speaker 3 (35:14):
So I suppose in a sense it is bad news
for well not Maga, but whoever that crowd was. That
thought overhanging Mike Pence was a good idea.
Speaker 4 (35:24):
I have no problem with waiting to find out.
Speaker 1 (35:29):
I need to know right now.
Speaker 4 (35:30):
It's before lunch, right well, maybe my speculation bone is
in the shop or something, but.
Speaker 1 (35:36):
I just just tell me when you find out it's
something that.
Speaker 3 (35:42):
It was true enough for Thomas Jefferson and Mark Twaine
to make those comments about reading newspapers back in the day,
and it's you know, I hate the term on steroids,
but it's that on steroids now with the social media
and everything like that, that it is so much work
to know what's real and it's not.
Speaker 1 (36:01):
I heard one of the AI geniuses not to.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
Bring that topic up that I've bored you all with again,
but one of the AI geniuses saying his version of
how AI is going to destroy civilization is not quite
as exciting as others.
Speaker 1 (36:15):
It's just going to be.
Speaker 3 (36:16):
Everybody's going to be confused all the time. They're gonna
be wars breakout that countries don't even know why they're
at war or if it's really the reason, and you
don't know if it's actually happening or not, and every
new story is going to be suspect, and just everybody's
going to be constantly confused.
Speaker 4 (36:35):
Wow, that is troubling, and yeah, probably right, and a
difficult way to run any sort of society.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
We're already halfway there. Yeah that's what I thought. I thought.
Speaker 3 (36:45):
We're pretty close to that now, and you know, you
you amplify that and.
Speaker 4 (36:49):
Hell yeah, yeah, well this'll be interesting to watch again.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
Take care of yourself.
Speaker 4 (36:58):
The Confucians believe the health of the society is a
social fabric, and you are a thread and the strength
of every thread matters.
Speaker 1 (37:07):
So there you go.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
If you miss a segment of an hour get our
podcast Armstrong and Getty on demand, Confucius said that also
