Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Michael Very Show is on the air.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
We won't take a lot of hate want We're gonna
be sued every day and numerous times. I think you
will see the left try to control the media. They're
going to show the first crying female, first crying child,
and say how inhumane we are.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
I just wouldn't say that. I'm true story. Only people
who are getting detected children. I don't understand. They're so sorry.
I wish they could do something that they can't.
Speaker 4 (01:07):
They don't know what to do.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
I'll try and be there, but they won't talk about
three hundred and forty thousand children that they've failed to
take care of. They're not going to talk about the
young women who have been murdered in this country, the
hands the criminal cartels. They're not going to talk about
the hundreds of angel moms and dads who bury their children.
(01:33):
Want to talk about family separation, they bury their children.
The children were killed by a remember, a member of
a criminal cartewler. Someone's not supposed to be here. They'll
tell one side of the story. They'll try to BELLI fies.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
But they're not going to stop this.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
It's almost like some elected officials too, just stay off
of social media. They feel the need to have an
opinion on everything. It's funny because I noticed that the
people who live online will say, you know, you haven't
congratulated this team for winning the championship.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
You haven't.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
You haven't commented that there was a murder of four
states away. You haven't commented that that. You you condemn
the action, as if anyone out there is like, you
know what I might do?
Speaker 2 (02:17):
I might go randomly murder someone. Oh wait, hold on.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
The governor of a state six states away says they condemned.
Oh well maybe well if they condemn it, I don't
want to to what.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
What is this? What we have?
Speaker 4 (02:33):
We are in a simulation and it is amusing somebody,
I'm sure of it.
Speaker 5 (02:38):
So.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
Tennessee Republican Congressman Andy Ogles has been hit from both
sides after tweeting homosexuality has no place in America. H
He later deleted the tweet and blamed an unnamed staffer.
This was Ted Cruz on TMZ when they asked him
(03:00):
about it. Andy Ogle's Republican from Tennessee. She says that
sexuality has no place in America.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Care or disagree.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
Well, I think for all of recorded history, homosexuals have
been part of the humanity. You know, I got to say,
I'm quite libertarian by nature. I think the behavior of
consenting adults is their business.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
So I understand there are people that just hate homos. Okay,
but do you really want to Well, you going to
criminalize homos, because when I criticize Saudi Arabia and in
the Middle East and their crazy policies in dropping homos
off the top of buildings, I don't want that done
here either, to be clear, So this Republican congressman thought, well,
(03:46):
this would be great. Homosexuality has no place in America.
You can say, hey, I don't want transgenders going into
the schools, grown men with beards and bikinis, don't want
kids transition.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
But to just say I.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
Don't want homos to live in this country, don't, I
think you'd lose a lot of support on that. Because
whatever you may think, a lot of people you know
have a son, a daughter, a friend, a brother who's homo.
And you can say I find that to be sinful. Fine,
(04:24):
you can say I pray for that person. Fine, you
can have whatever opinion you want. But I don't think
anybody is saying expel them from the country because it's evil.
I don't know, maybe I'm wrong. I find this to
be very odd behavior, very odd.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Indeed.
Speaker 4 (04:43):
I think sometimes the desire to say something really dramatic
puts people in a position that they say something that
they're not able to defend because it's outside the.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Norms of where we want to be with any of this.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
After the wildfires in California last year, California's Governor Gavin
Newsom announced a two point five billion dollar relief package
it would go to the victims, supposedly. More than a
year and a half later, NBCLA investigated and found most
of the fund remains unused, few of the dollars reached
(05:19):
victims directly, and some of the money was diverted for
law enforcement to deal with the anti ice riots because
the crazy people are rioting there. NBCLA with a story.
Speaker 6 (05:31):
This is where nearly fourteen million dollars of the state's
relief money for the victims of the Palisades and Eaton
fires was spent overtime for CHP officers sent to demonstrations
in downtown LA where protesters marched against immigration enforcement operations.
According to this memo, the Department of Finance in June
twenty twenty five used some of the fire money for
(05:53):
law enforcement unrelated to the fires, but diverting the relief
money for crowd control was pre authorized by eight lawmakers.
Speaker 7 (06:01):
I definitely would not want funds directed to anywhere but
in the hands of the survivors who've lost everything.
Speaker 6 (06:07):
Zaire Calvin has been working to help the victims of
the Eaton fire that claimed the life of his sister
and destroyed his family's homes.
Speaker 7 (06:15):
You're looking at my lot plural, which we had five
homes on lost so much. I've been an advocate since
the fires of fighting for my community, rebuild everything else aDNA.
I had no idea two point five billion dollar who
was designated for fire victims.
Speaker 6 (06:36):
Governor Newsom announced the relief fund near the Eaton fire
burn zone in the days after the fires, and fire
victims told us back then they needed the help.
Speaker 8 (06:45):
People who live in Altadena are hoping this is the
beginning of more aid and more resources.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
I would say thank you, obviously, right because we need it,
but we need more.
Speaker 6 (06:57):
The build the governor flashed at that news conference was
abx fourteen, co authored by Encino Assemblyman Jesse Gabriel. It
directed the emergency money to protect health, protect the safety
of persons or property, and expedite recovery. NBC four investigates
has found that much of the six hundred five million
dollars spent from the fund went right back to state agencies.
(07:21):
The latest figure from the state Finance Department shows about
seventy five percent of the relief money promised was never
released by the state.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
I mean, two four point five billion dollars is a
whole hell of a lot of money, and you know,
off the top of my head, I was like, no,
I don't remember that at all.
Speaker 6 (07:36):
Nicole Vasquez is a community advocate in Altadena helping fire
survivors while also being one herself. We asked her if
she remembered any fire messaging from state health officials.
Speaker 9 (07:48):
You feel like you got information from the State Health Department.
Speaker 10 (07:52):
From the State Health Department, I don't remember getting anything
from them.
Speaker 6 (07:57):
That's because the spending record show it received thirteen million
dollars from the relief fund. The department says it used
some for air monitoring or testing, and spends some making
YouTube videos like this one. Cleaning soot, ash and smoke
damage from your home after a wildfire. It was posted
nine months after the fires. It's been viewed one hundred
and eighty one times. My name is doctor Anische Mahajen.
(08:19):
For comparison, LA County's Department of Health produced its own videos.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
You're listening to the panicaleow.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
This absolute freak show who managed to win the Democrat primary,
who was created in a test to much like Barack Obama,
to be the new face of the Democrats. He quotes
the Bible constantly and then perverts the Bible to be
for abortion and all sorts of other weird stuff. The
guy who says that our southern border should be a
(08:50):
welcome matt to illegal aliens. We should be encouraging them
to come in. It's the craziest stuff ever. He's so
out of touch with Texas values and American values. Well,
he's really really weird and creepy. And one of the
things you can get people to pay attention to is
he's so creepy that you wouldn't want him around your kids.
There's some history there. We'll get into that in time.
(09:10):
But in order to try to make him seem more normal.
All of a sudden, out of nowhere, they wake up
and go, oh no, no, he has a girlfriend. Wait
what a girlfriend we never heard of before?
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (09:21):
Yeah, this girl that used to work for him, she's
his girlfriend now and turns out she's as weird as
he is. But that's supposed to quell. But nobody's believing in.
That's as believable as Eric Swalwell's denial video. It's not
really working. But anyway, now that we have the girlfriend identified,
this is what this is what you're supposed to believe.
(09:41):
This is the girlfriend. She's a they them pronoun girl.
Mind you, we're not supposed to question. Now he has
a girlfriend, and now she's talking. Here's what she has
to say.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
Tonight, on sixty minutes, we get an inside look at
the girlfriend of James Tellerico Brienna Minard. Brianna, I hear
you're a vegan who has the them pronouns. What else
can you tell me about yourself?
Speaker 10 (10:05):
Oh my gosh, I just have to gush about Jimmy
for a second, because honestly, he's such a man's man
like old school masculine. It's actually kind of intimidating sometimes,
Like last week He got really upset because I used
a special blanket he calls it his cozy, and I
accidentally put it in the dryer and it shrank a little.
(10:26):
He didn't talk to me for two days. Two days,
that's how much he cares. That's passion. And he is
so athletic. He parks as close to the door as
humanly possible everywhere we go because he says, why wayte synergy,
and I think that's just smart resource management.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Honestly.
Speaker 10 (10:44):
He's also incredibly opinionated, like you cannot say anything bad
about his mom. She still cuts his hair, by the way,
which that's a bond. That's a man who values family. Oh,
and he handles conflict so well. Last month, our neighbors
said some rude and Jimmy waited until the guy went inside.
Then we drove home and he thought of several really
(11:06):
good things he could have said. One of them was
pretty cutting too. Oh and I almost forgot he cried
at the end of the Barbie movie, but he said
it was allergies, and I believe him because he's honest.
That's a masculine trait.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
I am so.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Lucky, Yes lucky, indeed, sounds like Jimmy is a man's man.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
This is a man.
Speaker 11 (11:32):
That is a.
Speaker 4 (11:36):
Federal authorities are reportedly investigating former Republican Congressman George Santos
if he engaged in insider trading by betting on himself
through a prediction market about whether he would show up
at President Trump's State of the Union back in February,
ABC News with the story this morning.
Speaker 8 (11:56):
The sources say disgraced former Congressman George Santos's under invest
mitigation for possible insider trading on the prediction market Calshi.
Back in February, Santos released this video.
Speaker 9 (12:06):
I'm going to be there for the State of the
Union in the gallery guys.
Speaker 8 (12:10):
At the time, Calshi was taking bets on who would
attend President Trump's State of the Union speech. Sources say
Santos placed wagers tied to his own attendance, but during
the address, he posted watching State of.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
The Union from an airport TV was not part of
the plan.
Speaker 8 (12:23):
By skipping the speech, sources say he pocketed tens of
thousands of dollars calci Froze's account and alerted federal authorities.
Santos first gained infamy in twenty twenty two, when the
lies he told during his campaign were exposed. He claimed
to have graduated in the top of his class, that
his mother worked at the World Trade Center on nine
to eleven, and that his grandparents escaped the Holocaust.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
My grandparents survived the Holocaust.
Speaker 10 (12:44):
So these regimes of socialism, Marxism, they don't work.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
None of it was true.
Speaker 12 (12:50):
I think we can all look at ourselves in the
mirror and admit that once in our life and made
a mistake.
Speaker 8 (12:53):
He was expelled from Congress and later pleaded guilty to
identity theft and wirefraud, earning him a seven year prison sentence,
but Presidents Frum commuted the sentence, saying while Santos was
somewhat of a rogue, many rogues aren't forced to serve
seven years.
Speaker 11 (13:08):
Santos is just the latest high profile, high profile case
of alleged insider training on prediction markets. Last week, a
Google employee was charged with using confidential information to make
a million dollars betting on search trends, and a US
Special Forces soldier was charged with betting on the capture
of Venezuelan leader Nicholas Maduro.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
I started my professional life straight out of law school
as a corporate securities lawyer. And one of the things
that is, and then my wife would end up in
her legal career being the associate general counsel for a
company called Elpaso Energy, which was the David that had
purchased a Goliath that was Tenaco and moved from Olpaso,
(13:47):
Texas to acquire this much bigger company, Teneco, And one
of the most difficult things to do for her was
to monitor for compliance in any kind of communications that
might be perceived as market indicators or personal behavior related
(14:08):
to stock trades or whatever else. The basis for the
stock we'll talk about stock market for a moment, the
basis for the stock market being considered trustworthy, which it
must be for people to invest. If you believed that
there was insider trading on stocks, then you would be
(14:29):
less likely to invest your money. The same principle is
why we have to have election integrity laws. If you
don't think that your vote's actually going to count, because
they're going to cheat the result anyway, then you're not
going to take time out of your day, leave the office,
leave your kids, go wait, go part find a place
where you have to vote, bring your documents, stand in line,
(14:52):
You're not going to do it, which is why, oddly enough,
democrats say that if you have election integrity measures that
people won't show up to vote because they won't be
able to vote.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
In fact, quite the opposite. More people show up to.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
Vote when you have election integrity measures, because if my
vote counts, then I'll bother to vote. How many times
has someone asked you, maybe your wife, maybe your husband,
depend on where you are in the marriage, and someone said,
ask you for your advice on what to do, and
you go.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
I'm not going to give you my advice. You're not
going to take it anyway.
Speaker 4 (15:25):
Right Well, in the stock market, you've got to have
integrity measures to ensure that people aren't trading on inside information.
Inside information is generally loosely defined as information that is
not available to the public. That's why you have public
filings k ones, for instance, where you say, all right,
this is what we predict our earnings will be for
(15:48):
the next quarter, the next year. Here are some challenges
that are out there. Hey, we make a widget that
somebody else is now making a widget that is winning
awards and costs lest we have to disclose that so
investors can go ah, might your stock might go down.
You have to disclose material facts like this. The predictive
markets are very interesting because now you've got things that
(16:10):
don't have all of those all of those systems behind it.
But we love to gamble. We love to gamble. Asians
love to gamble. Americans love to gamble too, and we
love to gamble on prop bet stuff. Is Tiger Wood's
going to drive you know X number of feet on
the opening.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Drive or is it going to be this?
Speaker 4 (16:29):
People gamble at the super Bowl on who's going to
win the toss. So these predictive markets and the insider trading,
the betting on them, this is only going to get.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
Kark Cameron of the famous Growing Pains man.
Speaker 6 (16:42):
If it worked for Growing Pains, I wouldn't be on
the Michael Bay Show.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
It was originally employed to suggest that white people started
off so far ahead of blacks that they didn't have
to work hard to accomplish anything. Every door was automatically opened.
But over a period of time, through governmental programs, through
affirmative action DEI, all those sorts of things, black individuals
(17:15):
were given the same access to university seats, jobs, you
name it, and yet there were still people complaining, and
then that term morphed into something very interesting. White privilege
(17:37):
became an insult. You threw it someone if they had
two parents rather than just a single mom, if their
parents were mid twenties or above when they had them
and not fourteen, if they didn't have any relatives that
were in prison, that was white privilege.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
So the term gradually.
Speaker 4 (18:02):
Morphed into a criticism of cultural norms. This person over
here grew up in an environment where bad things were
happening and you didn't have to go through that, and
you should be ashamed of that. And so you had
(18:23):
an entire generation of kids going off to college, and
when it came time to share in small groups, they
were very eager to say, I'm ashamed of my whiteness.
I am ashamed of my white privilege. I wasn't carjacked,
I wasn't a lookout for a game. I didn't sell drugs.
(18:47):
I didn't have to stab anyone to get to advance
to eighth grade in my game.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
As if that was something to be embarrassed.
Speaker 4 (18:54):
Ugh, there are cultural traits that are a pathway to failure, incarceration,
death in the street. Well that's pretty much the two
options under employment, and you will start noticing, once you're
(19:19):
mindful of it, that it is cultural traits as they're
played out. Social media has the ability to validate or
repudiate cultural traits because there is a bandwagon effect. If
you notice someone doing something and they get lots of likes,
then people will say, oh, I want to do that too,
(19:42):
So there's a story. So one of the things you
will notice in social media is that certain people will
go over the top. Let's say for prom, and look,
I want nice things for my kids when they go
to prom. My wife would always get mom. She didn't
know what a mom was, she didn't grow up in
this country, but she learned and she would get a
(20:05):
mom that Neither one of my kids wanted a big,
fancy mom. They doing a basic mom. And we would,
you know, rent a tuxedo and the whole nine yards.
And that was for us something we were happy to
be able to afford to do. It wasn't in any
(20:26):
way different than what I did growing up with My
parents didn't have ten percent of money I do, but
it was it was a neat thing. It was a
special thing. We certainly didn't bankrupt the family over it.
That would be a bad decision. That would be a
lack of impulse control. That would be a lack of
strategic thinking. That would be living for a moment that
(20:49):
we would pay for for a long period of time.
And my parents didn't do that, and I'm not going
to do that.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
With my own kids.
Speaker 4 (20:56):
So you will see this trend of over the top
prom videos where these people who I'm going to go
out on a limb and suggest they're not wealthy, are
engaged in behaviors like a social media influencer as if
(21:17):
they are. Because there is a certain subset of our
culture that more important than being rich, wants to act rich.
The having the money is less important to them than
the acting. The showy cars, the showy private jet, the
(21:38):
showy places they are.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
And you see them everywhere you go.
Speaker 4 (21:43):
They're filming everything because it's all about an Instagram post
and it's all about the social validation. So a little
girl's prom and a helicopter lands on a public park,
in a public park, the helicopter did not need did
(22:04):
not get authorization. You need an authorization. Helicopters are not
a minor thing. And it goes social media, goes viral.
It turns out that the girl is the daughter of
the parks director at the area's Town Parks Division. The
(22:32):
mother is the executive director. And it turns out not
only that the helicopter was paid for using a city
credit card. Yeah, well, but I guess the good news
(22:53):
is at least we achieve diversity. CPS CBS Chicago with
the story.
Speaker 12 (23:00):
Less than a week after, this helicopter landed at the
Markham Park, catching many by surprise. This prom stunt for
the park director's daughter is now political.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Here's what Queen Tina Brown told officers.
Speaker 6 (23:11):
I got it okay, the park whose hope's going over
the sea?
Speaker 12 (23:15):
Yet city leaders never authorized the landing in the public
park where children were playing.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
Did they say you can learn commission? I couldn't bring
it over.
Speaker 12 (23:23):
The pilot had a notice signed by the park director herself.
The company later handed over this invoice to the city attorney.
The receipt raises much bigger questions. The bill was for
a minimum of eight hundred dollars for an hour. At
the bottom there's a credit card number linked to Brown.
She named Markham Parks as the company and even used
the address of the fieldhouse and provided her signature on
(23:46):
a taxpayer funded credit card.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
The plot seconds as they say, the.
Speaker 12 (23:50):
City attorney says, there's no way Brown accidentally entered all
that information.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
In fact, he spoke to the helicopter company.
Speaker 13 (23:57):
They told me that the deposit was charged to the
card and they have not been successful in getting the
remaining eight hundred dollars off the card.
Speaker 12 (24:09):
For whatever reason, using the park district credit card either
to pay or hold the reservation is why Markham's mayor
says residents should be concerned.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Why wouldn't somebody question that.
Speaker 12 (24:19):
In fact, the city started questioning spending at the park
District and its board in the fall of twenty twenty five.
CBS Chicago reported when Brown was first called on bodycam
getting served with an injunction. Leaders alleged Brown and the
park board were not paying bills and left most parks
with broken equipment and deplorable conditions.
Speaker 2 (24:39):
They've been landing helicopters in different ways.
Speaker 12 (24:42):
Over there, and remember that invoice, there's a line which
says every additional six minutes.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Over the hour would be eighty dollars.
Speaker 12 (24:50):
We're told police grounded that chopper for at least three hours. Now,
the big question who will pay for the extra minutes,
not to mention the original eight hundred dollars. Keep in
mind that contract is under the name of the Markham
Park District.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
We did reach out to Brown, she didn't git.
Speaker 7 (25:08):
Back to me.
Speaker 5 (25:09):
I've been.
Speaker 6 (25:12):
Michael Berry. I've been fighting acquisitions after acquisition.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Wild brawl.
Speaker 4 (25:22):
Caught on video at a Catholic school kindergarten graduation in
Ohio because we have to have graduations from.
Speaker 2 (25:33):
You did it, Billie. You graduated kindergarten.
Speaker 4 (25:38):
Now, you weren't perfect, you didn't nap every time you
were supposed to, but you've done it.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
You're going all the way to first grade.
Speaker 4 (25:48):
Son.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
We're so proud of you.
Speaker 4 (25:51):
Well, it's a Catholic school kindergarten graduation in Ohio. One
person injured, one arrested. Yeah, kindergarten. And the beauty of
this whole thing is if they don't kick the kid
out of school, the kids and the parents are going
(26:11):
to have to live with each other for.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
Twelve more years.
Speaker 4 (26:15):
The story from WTVG TV in Toledo, Ohio.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
This was a scene inside Queen of Apostle School. What
should have been a.
Speaker 9 (26:24):
Milestone moment for five year olds and their families. Craig
May says the kids were down stairs rehearsing when parents
started fighting over seats.
Speaker 14 (26:33):
There was another family who started to grab their own
chairs and like kind of like make their own space
and make their own seating, which I didn't really have
a problem with, but my kid's mom, they were right
in front of her and she couldn't see.
Speaker 9 (26:45):
May says he tried to calm things down, but a
woman behind him wouldn't let it go.
Speaker 14 (26:50):
As I'm trying to explain that to my kids, mom,
see the girl still behind me and she's just talking,
just cussing, just talking crazy, calling us weird and saying
we need to mind our business.
Speaker 9 (26:59):
Police identify that woman as Jessica Anderson. She is charged
with felonious assault. May says he and Anderson went back
and forth, and that's when her family jumped him.
Speaker 14 (27:10):
Her whole family in the first two rows, just stand up,
five guys, five girls? Did they just all stand up?
As them arguing with Jessica. I literally don't remember anything.
I just now with sucker punch. That's Jessica in the fame.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
He says. Once he was on the ground, the attack continued.
Speaker 14 (27:23):
Once I was taken to the ground. It was probably
four or five other guys that were on top of me,
trampling me, punching me, and kicking me in the head.
Speaker 9 (27:29):
His child's mother tried to help. Video shows Jessica Anderson
allegedly grabbing the woman by her hair along with several
other women.
Speaker 14 (27:37):
To grab my kids mom buy her hair, pulled her
away from me, started punching her in the face, and
then maybe five or six other girls came and trampled
her and was just stumping her, kicking her in the face.
Speaker 9 (27:46):
School leaders called nine to one one tonight. May's himself
a kindergarten teacher, says he's heartbroken.
Speaker 14 (27:53):
So being at another school's kindergarten graduation. I know how
hard those kids worked, I know how hard those teachers
work for us, just to you know what I mean,
ruining and be selfish like that. It literally breaks my
heart that I can watch my daughter graduate today.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
I'm starting to get the impression that there may be
some people in our society who do not enjoy the
benefit of advanced conflict resolution skills. You ever go to
(28:30):
the dog park with a dog. When you get to
the dog park, you will find that what seems like
such an idyllic space dogs running around. A new dog
introduced into the environment is going to mean that other
dogs are going to growl and attack, and this dog
(28:51):
make ground and attack, and you think to yourself, Hey,
you're creating drama. How about how about y'all, I'll just
play and run around. But invariably there is a dog
that must attack for no good reason, no good reason
at all, but that dog lacks what we call impulse control.
(29:18):
There are entire subcultures who appear to lack impulse control.
I am of the opinion that when you measure success
in life, I don't mean whether you'll be a billionaire.
I mean what we would consider the Western canon of
(29:40):
success stability. Impulse control becomes a core tenet of that.
The kind of people who jump up and fight this
person as he just here, I will tell you, will
(30:04):
lack impulse control in every aspect of their lives. They
will have unprotected sex and be shocked that they're about
to have another baby. Who could have guessed, but why
(30:24):
would you not take measures to avoid getting pregnant when
at that moment you had an overwhelming impulse and your
higher reasoning the big head if you will is incapable
of making the decision for your brain. Impulse control becomes
(30:51):
you think about where people get off track. If you're
born in this country, you're not as opposed to many
places around the world. You're not assured of becoming a millionaire,
but you have the basic opportunity to have a stable, secure,
(31:14):
happy life. When you think of the various things along
the way that can derail that, point A to point B,
lack of impulse control is at.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
The heart of it.
Speaker 4 (31:29):
What does that look like, Well, you get kicked out
of school because you get in a fight, You get
arrested for shoplifting because who hasn't been in a store
and thought to themselves, I'd like this item here, but
I can't afford it, but I'd still like it. If
(31:50):
the but I'd still like it wins out. You lack
impulse control if you grab it and run with it.
If you are a person who gets bumped at a
club like jay Z and as a result you get
in a fight and you shoot somebody again. You watch
(32:11):
a poorly coached football team all the way up to
the NFL, and you will see players as their team
is driving for the victory. You'll see players who another
player bumps them after the play and they haul off
and hit him fifteen yards mark it off, and they're
(32:32):
marching the wrong direction now and a coach is losing
his mind. But the truth is that coach knew that
that guy lacked impulse control. He just hoped that this
wouldn't be the occasion where the world came to find out.
Impulse control. You don't end up accidentally pregnant. Impulse control.
(32:59):
You don't end up act accidentally in the hospital because
you were doing one hundred miles an hour on them motorcycle,
or because you were drag racing in the car. All
of these things come out to impulse control. When the
siren starts in the back whoop.
Speaker 2 (33:17):
Woop behind you.
Speaker 4 (33:21):
And your immediate reaction is to run, and you do
impulse control. When you're at work, someone gives you a
project that you don't want because you want to leave.
Someone gives you feedback that you don't like, customer comes
in and you don't. All of those things come down
(33:41):
to impulse control. It is advanced reasoning to employ it.
And what we're dealing with in our society, what there's
videos all day long is people who lack basic impulse control,
