2-4-25 - 9am - RFK Jr Moves On, 5 Alarm Fire and Gender Care

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Maybe I'm just a little bit behind everything, but I
just saw a lovely picture of Milania. Check it out everyone.
Unfortunately it's a UK magazine. It's nothing I've ever seen
here in the grocery stores on Hello. But yeah, it's
about time someone gave her a due.

Speaker 2 (00:24):
I saw that last night. I think the magazine's called Hello,
and I didn't know it was a UK magazine. I
just didn't know what it was. But yes, it's a
it's actually and I remember the caption on the video
was something about America's first lady, you know, classy, stylish whatever.
So the dam's beginning to break, just like tariffs and

(00:45):
everything else. Yeah, there was a Trump effect. Speaking of
the Trump effect, it broke during the break or maybe
at the end of the last segment. I forget and
port old Dragon back there just being the third floor.
You know, goober that he is understand what this means. Oops,
I guess I need a I need a microphone.

Speaker 3 (01:07):
Imagine that at the microphone along party lines with fourteen Let.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
Me start those over there. Do you know? Well who
said the chiron said? RFK Junior was voted out out
of committee. That still sounds pretty bad. It's really really good. Oh.

Speaker 3 (01:25):
The vote in the Senate Finance Committee was along party lines,
with fourteen Republican votes in favor and thirteen Democratic votes against.
Louisiana Republican Senator Bill Cassidy, a doctor who hinted he
was skeptical of Robert F. Kennedy Junior, ended up backing
him in committee. The vote on the Senate floor could
be narrow, but for now there's no sign there's enough
opposition to block Kennedy's confirmation.

Speaker 4 (01:46):
And there is a second, the clerk will call the
role mis Hi, mister Hi, mister Cornyan, mister Cornyn, Hi,
mister Thune, mister Thune, Hi, mister Scott, mister Scott.

Speaker 5 (01:59):
I'm mister Cassidy, mister Cassidy, him, mister Langford, mister Langford.
I'm mister Danes, mister Danes, I mister Young, mister Young,
I'm mister Brassa, mister Brassa. I mister Johnson, mister Johnson,
I mister Tillis, mister Tilli's I missus Blackburn, Missus Blackburn.
And I'm mister Marshall. Mister Marshall, I'm mister Widen No,
mister widen no, miss can't well, can't well know, mister Bennett,

(02:22):
mister no, mister Warner, mister Warner no. Mister white House,
Mister white House no, Miss Hassen, Miss Hasson no, Miss Cortes, master,
Miss Courtes, master no, Miss Warren Is Warren no. Mister Sanders,
Mister Sanders no, Miss Smith, Miss Smith no, mister Luhan,
Mister mister Warnock no, mister Warnock no. Mister Welch, mister Welch,

(02:44):
mister chairman, chairman votes, I, mister chairman, the file telly
is fourteen eyes thirteen nights.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
Have they paused for a moment and they're they're going
on in there. They're recounting what they just did. The
vote was, but.

Speaker 4 (03:04):
Would the clerk please restate the vote's.

Speaker 5 (03:07):
Chairman of the fountain was fourteen eyes thirteen.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
As the vote was fourteen thirteen.

Speaker 4 (03:12):
The nomination is reported favorably. We will now turn to
other senators who would like to make a statement. Since
I asked my Republican colleagues.

Speaker 2 (03:19):
I don't care a by there's statements.

Speaker 5 (03:21):
So this.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
Pretends that more likely than not, Bobby Kennedy Junior will
be confirmed on the Senate floor. What it means dragging
is that he was voted out of the committee to
go to proceed forward to the floor for a vote
by the full Senate r as opposed to just make
complete sense. Yeah, well I knew it would. You know,
Sometimes you just kind of pound your heads against the
console to get you to understand that because you're being

(03:44):
voting out of something is a good thing. Right, Well,
as I very well meet today, be voted out today,
I may be voted off the island today. Who knows, Uh,
you are the weakest link? Goodbye, It's just Tuesday. It
means I got, you know, Weddy Thursday, Friday, you know,
take a little time off before I come back on

(04:04):
air on Saturdays. You know, who knows? Who cares? Whatever?

Speaker 3 (04:08):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (04:08):
This is? I find this fascinating on several levels. First,
clearly partisan vote. It had nothing to do with this qualification.
It had nothing to do with this philosophy, had nothing
to do with what he said in the past about
either pro or anti vaccine. It was just that it's
Donald Trump's nominee. And by the way, you're a Democrat
going to work for Donald Trump, so all the Democrats
are going to vote against you. And you've got to

(04:28):
hear our own US Senator Michael Bennett vote against him. Now,
I think, particularly considering that Senator Cassidy, who's also a
doctor from Louisianna. In fact, he worked at the now
I was going to say it, now, I forgot the
name of it, but it's it's kind of like Denver
General Health. It's kind of charity hospital. I think this

(04:51):
was the name of it. And in New Orleans that
was completely destroyed during Hurricane Katrina. Bill Cassidy worked there
before he became a US senator, and he was he's
known as a fairly i would say, moderate to liberal senator.
He's he's certainly not a John Kennedy from Louisiana, that senator,
and he was just arguing, you know, you know, he

(05:15):
struck me as And don't get me wrong, a lot
of doctors in my family, lots of doctors for friends,
and I love doctors. But unlike lawyers, doctors can really
be pompous asses. I mean, thank goodness, lawyers aren't that way,
but doctors can really be kind of pompous asses. And
Bill Cassidy kind of strikes me that way. But he

(05:36):
voted for Kennedy, So I think this means that unless
you have someone you know, like a Susan Collins or
maybe Built, maybe Built Cassidy voted for him just to
get his nomination to the floor, and then we'll vote
against him on the floor, knowing that it still may pass,
you know, by fifty one votes, or it may be

(05:58):
a tie, and you know, once of JD. Evans will
do his job and he'll break the tie. But I
believe that Bobby Kennedy will be the next Secretary of
Health and Human Services. I say that because put on
your seat belts, put your trade tables up, put away
your devices, because we're about to take off and it's

(06:18):
going to be pretty fun. I'm not going to agree
with everything he does, but if we voted for disruptors,
you've got to vote a disruptor that's moving into Health
and Human Services, one of the largest apartments. Does a
lot of redistribution of wealth funds, a lot of crazy science,
and we're going to see things begin to happen. I

(06:43):
think it's fantastic. I think it's utterly fantastic. At the
same time that that happened, we had Senator Susan Collins
announced that she was going to do we pay for
the Internet. Here we go, Susan Collins announced.

Speaker 6 (06:58):
After sense of consideration, conversations with her in my office,
attending the hearing, questioning her there, and listening to her
in the closed session, I decided to vote that I
will vote for her. I believe she's committed to strengthening

(07:20):
our national security.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
Talking about Tulca Gabbart, I still think that one's going
to be close. But because you had James Langford and
who was the other one? James Langford? And I forget
the who cares that were really grilling her over the
whole Edward Snowden, yes or no? Yes or no? Was
he a trader? Yes or no? Yes or no? Well,
you know what, why don't we actually determine whether you've

(07:43):
taken an oath to uphold the constitution at least eight
times in your life. I think she's going to uphold
the Constitution, And I think and she said that what
he did was wrong. Now whether it benefited the country
or not is an entirely different issue. So these are
beginning to move and they need to continue to move

(08:05):
at a rapid pace because look at what Look at
what Marco Rubio's done. Just in his first week after confirmation,
He goes to Mexico, suddenly tariffs. Okay, well you know what,
we'll see what we can do here. Same in Canada
he go he goes to Guatemala, El Salvador, he goes

(08:26):
to Panama and suddenly Panama is like, oh, yeah, well
we'll we'll terminate our contracts with China and we will
allow them to have operational control over the canal. And
what else can we do for you, mister secretary while
you're here now, obviously the proofs in the pudding and
what they actually end up doing in real life. But wow,

(08:49):
you don't think that the country. You don't think the world.
Do you remember how many times over the past four
years I beg for just some leadership, just leadership, even
if the leader sometimes says we're going to charge up
San Juan Hill. Well I'm not really sure we can
take San Juan Hill, but okay, that's where you want
to go. Let's go. And that's what's happening right now.

(09:14):
I think it's wonderful. I think it's absolutely wonderful. Talk
about new speak fer one. We haven't talked about new
speak for a while, you know, or well, in the
new Speak Dictionary, normally, the new speak dictionary gets ever thinner.

(09:34):
It kind of decreases in size as the dumbasses in
the world kind of limit our ability to think by
limiting our vocabulary. But then every once in a while
a new term is added, introducing five alarm fire, which
can be defined as a person or event seen as

(09:58):
an obstruction buy progressives agents are experiencing terror because cleaning
up the FBI before it could finish deteriorating into an
American KGB is a five alarm fire. Eugene Vinman, the
I think it's the brother of what was his name, Vinman?

(10:20):
That was the Colonel Vinman. That was the two you
know traders. There was a trader to Donald Trump about
impeachment in Trump one point zero. He tweeted out, uh
day before yesterday, This firing the senior leadership, scores of
senior agents and hundreds of line agents will make us
less safe from criminals and external threats. This is a

(10:43):
catastrophe of yet incalculable proportions. These attacks on law on
law enforcement, excuse me, are reprehensible and admenace to the
American people. Really maybe be able to just shut up
and sit down because it seems to me that what's

(11:05):
going on if the FBI is actually a good thing.
Anytime you start disrupting things and saying that, oh my gosh,
you know, we're going to change this or change that,
or we want people to work in the agencies that
are actually going to support the mission of the agency
as established by the commander in chief, well that's actually

(11:28):
a good thing. So for suddenly people to be all
upset about the FBI, you know, people are being fired,
or people are being told to stay home, or people
are being told you know, there's a there's a form
that has been sent to all current FBI personnel, and

(11:49):
that form asks of those agents tell us everything that
you've been doing, what your job assignments are, what you've
how your extent of involvement in any sort of January six,
either participation on that day, any participation you had in

(12:14):
gathering evidence or arresting Jay six or defendants, any testimony
you may have given. In other words, it's an online
form that FBI personnel have to fill out about everything
they did about January six and everything that they have

(12:37):
that they're doing now based upon. Now, they're not asking
for information about ongoing investigations they're asking, for example, the
Jay six investigation, they've been pardoning. That whole operation has
been essentially shut down, with exception one which I may
try to get to today, but that's caused a filelarm

(12:57):
what they call a five fire alarm fire inside the FBI,
because somebody's asking you to tell us what you did
in the past about a certain case that involved the
commander in chief, and we want to know how extensively
you were involved in those some of those what I

(13:18):
believe personally to be illegal actions and some of the
illegal charging in the illegal investigations, I think you can
probably expect a blood bath, yes at the FBI, maybe
maybe today, maybe tomorrow sometime. But my guess is that
based on this questionnaire, the acting FBI Director Brian Driscoll

(13:39):
will be gone by sometime. It's well, it's tuesday's certainly
gone by the end of the week. And because defying
a direct order seeking the names of FBI employees, perhaps
more than six thousand of them they were involved in
January sixth cases may just be a bridge too far

(14:03):
for him. So it's kind of hard to see how
The guy's name is James Dennahey he runs in New
York Field office. I don't know how he keeps his
job after sending a defiant email to his employees over
the weekend promising that he will dig in and he
will not step down, and he will not follow orders

(14:26):
from the President of the United States of America. The
New York Times got the email. Then he wrote, today
we find ourselves in the middle of a battle of
our own, as good people are being walked out of
the FBI and others are being targeted because they did
their jobs in accordance with the law and FBI policy.

(14:47):
He also said that the removal of top officials, including
at Miami and Washington Field offices, have caused oh, fear
and angst within the FBI ranks. He compared his insubordination
of telling them, I will not enforce this. I will
not do what the boss says. He compared that in

(15:08):
subordination to being a marine quote in the early nineteen
nineties when he dug a small foxhole five feet deep
and hunkered down for safety. It sucked, but it worked.
I don't think that analogy works out very well. You're

(15:31):
a marine and you dug a small foxhole five feet
deep and hunkered down for safety. We have firefighters that
charge into collapsing and burning houses and towers and buildings,
or go into people's homes as wildfire spreads. And you're

(15:53):
saying that, as a marine, you dug a foxhole and
buried yourself five feet deep. Now, maybe they're insinuating circumstances
for that. I should I want to say that publicly
as a marine. And is that what you're telling your
employees to do? Now? It's completely unclear from every story
that I've read whether or not every FBI employee who

(16:15):
worked on the January sixth terrorism cases is going to
be fired. I think that many will be asked to
take their terrors terrorism expertise down to the southern border
or other locations where real terror threats exist. But absolutely
just define, define a request for information from the commander

(16:39):
in chief. I think your days may be numbered. And
oh my gosh, according to you know, all of Gene
Vimmann and the others, this is a five alarm fire.
Kind of like the whole deal about USAID asking for
accountability for you shovel billions of dollars out the door.

(17:02):
That's the fire law, Michael. We used to spread freedom
and democracy.

Speaker 4 (17:07):
Now we spread DEI and transgenderism.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
Yep, that's what we do. And whatever you're doing today
to earn a living, whether you are retired and you're
depending upon your investments or your retirement fund, or you're
getting your Social Security and that's being taxed, whatever your
or you're paying income taxes, whatever you do, whatever you're
doing today, part of your money is going to support that.

(17:35):
And if that doesn't piss you off, then you're not awake.
Another effect of Trump two point zero was his executive
order that bans the chemical and surgical mutilation of our
children through irreversible transgender medical interventions. And that executive order
is already bearing fruit. A lot of medical institutions are

(18:00):
canceling or pausing all of these so called gender affirming
care procedures. I never understood how was gender affirming care.
The White House has put out and illustrative lists highlighting
various jurisdictions and institutions where poorly evidenced transgender treatments have

(18:22):
been curtailed. Now, I want to come back to the
first one in a minute. New York NYU's Langoing Health
has begun canceling appointments for gender affirming care for miners,
including for two twelve year olds who were scheduled to
receive puberty blocking implants. Colorado right here in our litlowed state,

(18:46):
Denver Health has ceased performing gender reassignment surgeries on miners,
and the University of Colorado you See Health has announced
the termination of gender affirming care for all miners. Hallelujah.
In Virginia, the Virginia Health In Children's Hospital of Richmond

(19:08):
had put a hold on providing transgender related medications and
surgeries to miners, and the University of Virginia Health has
suspended all transgender related services for miners inside the Beltway.
In the District of Columbia, Children's National Hospital has paused
the prescription of puberty blockers and hormone therapies for miners,

(19:31):
and Northwest Washington Hospital has followed suit and done the
same thing. Illinois, Lori Children's Hospital Chicago is undergoing a
review of its transgender related services for miners, and in Pennsylvania,
Children's Hospital of Philadelphia is also conducting a review of
the transgender related services that they offered to miners. Now,

(19:55):
the executive order from Trump said that quote, it is
a stain on our nation's history. Close quote that medical
professionals have been maiming and sterilizing a growing number of
impressionable children under the radical and false claims that adults
can change a child's sex through a series of irreversible

(20:17):
medical interventions that have grown unchecked. It's not all good news, however,
I think I mentioned this clause earlier today. But to
prevent the country from fragmenting into chaos, the Constitution has

(20:38):
the supremacy clause, according to which federal law supersedes state law,
and just generally speaking, federal law supersedes state law. Yet
local jurisdictions governed by liberals snub their noses all the
time at federal immigration law and federal blood drug LAS law. Now,

(21:01):
since they're not forced to, why should a bunch of
communists or Marxists at the local level comply with anything
federal that doesn't meet with their ideological their orthodoxy there,
whatever their approval metric is. A deep blue state might
even inflict sex change procedures on children in defiance of

(21:24):
a presidential executive order. Flipping everything upside down, a state
attorney journal might declare that it is that it is
illegal not to commit these crimes against humidity, humidity against humanity.
I give you New York Attorney General Letitia James. Yes,

(21:47):
the same Latsia James that made it her campaign promise
to put Donald Trump in prison or to putting out
of business. Well, yesterday she told hospitals that they would
be violating state law if they stopped offering gender affirming
care for people under age nineteen, in response to Donald

(22:09):
Trump's executive order, which was obviously aimed at curtailing federal
funding for those treatments. Now, according to the Attorney General
in New York, not to disfigure a child as sacrifices
to whatever orthodoxy they believe constitutes discrimination. No wonder firefighters,

(22:30):
for example, boo this sourels installed tyrant. You know, forget
making Greenland Greenland part of the United States. Let's focus
on reclaiming New York. How about we actually bring New
York back into the country, which, under their Marxist rules,

(22:52):
effectively no longer part of the country. You know, there
is over on my Twitter feed, on my ex feed,
excuse me, on my ex feed, I follow a conservative
lawyer and a Trump ally by the name Mike Davis.
You ought to go read what he posts, because he

(23:12):
posts some pretty good stuff. He's warned that her antics
could quote land her fat ass in prison, and he's
probably right. And he's probably right because his mandate is

(23:34):
to clean house. Trump's mandate is not to play patsy
for the liberal establishment. Mike Davis said, I dare you
to try to continue your law fair against President Trump
in his second term. And it's not tit for tat because,
as he points out, and we've mentioned this statue before,

(23:56):
Title eighteen of the United States Code makes it a
crime to engage in a conspiracy against rights when you
politicize and weaponize law enforcement against your political enemies. I
would argue that you are engaged in a very serious
federal civil rights felony. Called that conspiracy against rights, and

(24:19):
I think that is precisely what she is doing here.
Donald Trump, by the executive order, is trying to protect
the rights of these minor children. He's actually trying to
prevent something that's irreversible from happening to them, simply because
some you know what, let's turn the tables a little bit.

(24:43):
What would we do with parents? Now? I've got a
big bugaboo against child protective services because I think oftentimes
they way overreach. So if they overreach one direction, what
if they fail to do what's practical and reasonable in
another direction? Parents are physically, mentally, psychologically, however you want

(25:08):
to do it abusing their children, and it's reported at
school to a school counselor, and a school counselor turns
the parents in, and the attitude is, well, their parents
and they can do what they want to do. It
is their children, so we're not going to intervene. Then
I would ask, then why do we have child Protective Services?

(25:31):
If a parent allows, encourages, or actually forces a child
to I don't know, smoke crack, inject heroine, smoke marijuana,
drink alcohol until they're in a drunken stupor and their
BAC is they might as well be dead, be their

(25:51):
blood alcohol content is so high. And Child Protected Services
does nothing to protect those childs, that those children from
the horrible side effects, if not death, from that kind
of substance abuse. You'd ask why the hell do we
have child protective services? You'd ask why do we allow

(26:12):
that to occur? We don't allow children to go buy
cigarettes or to smoke. Now, some will find a cigarette
smoke anyway, but we make it against the wall for
them to go purchase cigarettes Hill's bells. There are some
restaurants that are so afraid of serving alcohol to a
minor that they'll ask an old fart like me for

(26:34):
an ID and I laughingly hand it to them, and
I usually ask, this is company policy, isn't it Everybody
that buys a drink gotta be ided right because you
got caught one time? Yep, almost always, that's consistently the answer.
So we don't allow children to, you know, purchase alcohol

(26:55):
or to drink. Certainly don't allow them to drive drunk.
In fact, I think in Colorado, even if you're even
if you have your driver's license, I think maybe for
the first year or something, you can't have other kids
in the car. You can drive with your family or
your parents, you know some relative and you know maybe
Graham who can ride with them. But I know, for

(27:16):
a while my granddaughter couldn't have anybody else in the car.
But yet will allow a parent to say to a doctor,
we want you to give the doctor we want you
to give our child uh puberty blocking drugs, or we
want you to go whack their penis off, or to
do a double mass stuck to me even though there's
no cancer or anything, because she thinks he's a boy.

(27:39):
And now the New York Attorney General is define that
whose side is she on? When she claims to be
on the side of the children. You have to ask yourself, really,
because what you're doing to these children is irreversible harm.

(28:04):
I think again the Trump effect. Now, I don't know
what Trump will do. Well if Pam Bondy ever gets
confirmed as Attorney general. By the way, why are we
waiting on that? Why isn't that done already? But once
Pam Bondy gets confirmed, is she going to take action
against the attorney general? Now it'll be called retribution because

(28:25):
of what Latitia James did to Donald Trump. But if
Pam Bondy goes after her for defying a federal executive
order that says you cannot do these surgeries and we
will not pay for these surgeries, she might be a
little dodo. In fact, she might be engaged in violating
the civil rights taking actions against the rights of those

(28:47):
miners to not be disfigured. I'll be right back, Michael.
I just am curious, really scratching my head over this.

Speaker 3 (28:57):
One.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
Where is that bad outbreak of.

Speaker 5 (29:00):
In Kansas City coming from m M It could it
be the coveted illegals bringing it in?

Speaker 2 (29:11):
Me think?

Speaker 5 (29:11):
So?

Speaker 2 (29:13):
Gee, Dragon, why do you put such racist talkbacks on
the air? I have said it before, I'll say it again.
I don't leave them, I just play. I can't believe
how so many people think Jiminy Christmas, I can't. You know,
we've talked a lot about birthright, citizenship, the right of

(29:39):
the soil. Under the current interpretation of the Constitution, which
I think is wrong, any child born on American soil,
even if both parents are illegal aliens, is granted citizenship
now according to legal precedent, only the children of diplomats
and other similar foreign officials are explicitly excluded. Now, in

(30:04):
the discussion around the adoption of the fourteenth Amendment back
you know, post Civil War, it was stated by one
of the senators during the debate, why this is not
meant that someone who is in this country, you know,
and I'm paraphrasing here, but who is in this country
not as you know, not on a visa or not

(30:26):
on a here as a tourist or you know, but
is here otherwise unlawfully here, that it's not meant to
confer citizenship upon those people who might have have a
baby while they're in this country. So Trump issued the
executive order to end the practice, and that obviously has

(30:46):
already been subjected to a legal challenge. And quite frankly,
I think that's fine because with this court I've got
some confidence, you know, you know, I waver a little bit,
but I've got some confidence that they'll do the right thing.
You know, President is only a guide post. President doesn't
mean that, as we saw in the Dobbs decision over

(31:09):
ruling Roe v. Wade, that president is set in concrete.
You can change it. Now. I've often said, and I
think incorrectly, that we are the oullier, that we're the
only nation. But Canada allows unrestricted birthright citizenship, but it's

(31:30):
less common in Europe and Asia. In fact, not a
single European state allows for unrestricted birthright citizenship. Most of
the European nations require either one pair to be a
citizen or at least a legal permanent resident, and in
some cases mandate that at least one of the parents
resides in the country for a certain period of time. Historically,

(31:53):
Europe has experienced significant migration waves, particularly after World War
Two and during the following economic reconstruction period, and that
led to this spontaneous, often unregulated immigration that Europe saw.
European countries initially expected immigrants to return home after their
labor was no longer required, but then the regulations evolved

(32:17):
over time, as they always do, and by the nineteen seventies,
amid a bunch of economic challenges, the restrictions became more common,
and that started altering naturalization policies, and notably, the United
Kingdom shifted from a right of soil birthright to a
more right of blood citizenship norm requiring parental citizenship in

(32:39):
order to obtain British nationality. As of two thousand and four,
when Ireland abolished its birthright laws, Europe ceased offering unrestricted
birthright citizenship entirely. Australia and New Zealand they've all follish
followed similar paths, so in almost all parts of civilization,

(33:04):
they've gone the other direction than the direction we went
post Civil War. And I only mentioned that because I
have incorrectly said that we are the outlier, and we
are not the outlier, because we got Canada to our north,
which shows why Canada sucks in many ways.
