'The Detroit Connection' is reunited with Ryan and Shannon anticipating Thursday night's showdown between the Lions and Green Bay Packers at Ford Field.
Ryan waxes nostalgic for the 1980s, when so many familys enjoyed a renaissance during the Reagan years, and maintains he feels as hopeful and optimistic since Donald Trump's 2024 victory as he ever has dating back to those halcyon days.
Also, the debut of 'Based Fetterman,' featuring refreshingly honest takes from Senator John Fetterman (D-PA).

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Oh well to day to have the Detroit connection intact
with Shannon Scott on the other side of the glass.
It's a big night tonight for those of you who
are NFL fans, even if you're not following the Detroit
Lions as I do so closely in the stream season
that is ongoing. We've been terrible for sixty seven years.
(00:20):
Sixty seven years. My dad was ten the last time
the Lions won an NFL title. I was back in
nineteen fifty seven, and largely Lions fans have been suffering
ever since. And this year the story's a little bit different.
It changed last year, but now the Lions are a
an all time best eleven and one, and they host
(00:42):
the Green Bay Packers tonight. Both teams played on Thanksgiving Thursday,
so it's a full week for both of them coming
into a night's game. Now, the Packers are great too,
to Kelly Cacerra's credit. For some reason, she's a Packers fan.
She was born and raised in southern California and went
to school at West Lafayette at Purdue in Indiana. Chose
not to roof for the Bears the Monsters of the Midway,
(01:04):
but instead the Packers so tonight we are squaring off.
JD's will be the venue. JD's Bait Shop, Christian Toto
will be there. It'll be a cast of several and
Shannon Scott, you're invited. I might do it. I think
you should. We're gonna have a table. You're welcome to
join us. And I need a little bit of help
in helping, you know, balancing out the equation because both
(01:26):
Kelly and her husband Adam are Packers fans and we're
trying to make up for last year. The NFL script
didn't allow for it because of the psyop known as
Taylor Swift. Yeah, I don't know. That NFC title game.
My goodness, it was such a tease for somebody. I
mean it was. It was cruel and unusual punishment for
(01:47):
somebody like me that has suffered through all these horrible
years of the Lions. And they're up, was it? Twenty
four to seven at halftime against the forty nine Ers
in San Francisco? And then Josh Reynolds drops a pass
that would send him to Denver and the Lions took
Tim Patrick in return. That's been a pretty good swap
for the Honolulu Blue and Silver Bronco's having a good
(02:08):
season too, Shannon, looks like they might make a playoffs
for the first time since winning the Super Bowl of
Peyton Manning. That's been a while, maybe by Denver standards,
that's a long drought from the postseason. So an exciting
you're really here in Denver and then back home in Detroit.
My dream super Bowl be Broncos Lions, of course, and
you know where my rooting interests would be. But I
(02:30):
would be very happy if the Broncos were to win
a Super Bowl, if it came at the Lions expense,
I could at least take that. I don't want to
lose to a team like the Chiefs though, and I
know a lot of people around here agree with that.
If the Super Bowl and it could be Lions Chiefs,
I mean, everybody here in Denver is gonna be rooting
for Detroit, right Shannon, nobody's gotta root for Kansas City
and Taylor Swift and Travis Kelcey and Patrick Mahomes. Andy
(02:53):
Reid maybe, though he's really funny in those commercials, Fumbruski
Ruski doo. I don't know he's he has no shame
and that's in the funniest way possible. So little taste
of football there for you. As we start this Thursday,
hopefully on a happy note, I've got some other uplifting
(03:14):
content for you. Now. Recall that I've introduced a new bit.
Once President Trump has sworn in. We've already broken you
in with some of Trump's hot takes set to Donna
Summers looking for some hot stuff baby tonight. Well, we
now have a new bit because I just every time
this guy's in the news, he cracks me up, kind
(03:36):
of makes me think, and he gives me hope that
not every Democrat needs to be dismissed out of hand
and combat it against And that's John Fetterman. I don't
know what the stroke did to him, but since he's
come too and since he's covered to some degree, Shannon,
he's kind of a cool guy. I like him, and
(03:59):
a lot of the kids out there, the gen z
is like Zach. They're calling him based Soul our new feature.
And you'll hear at the bottom of this hour and
the bottom of our number two Based Fetterman, and you're
just gonna hear his take. You might agree with it,
you might not. But the one thing you'll have to
agree on is that it's based, meaning it's coming from
(04:21):
an authentic place. He's telling you what he thinks. He's
telling it like it is, at least as he sees it.
Those are the kind of people I appreciate, and they're
all too rare in politics. You ask him a question
and they give you a direct, honest answer. They don't
off you skate, they don't spin the talking points. I mean,
that's the certain thing about Senator John Fetterman. He does
(04:43):
not operate of a script or talking points or a
memo or anything else. So I'm hoping you'll be entertained
by that. Coming up a little bit later on both
this hour and next tomorrow, we're gonna have a lot
of fun too, and I'm changing the up once again
for the twenty twenty five. I've got a lot of
spring of my step for President Trump getting inaugurated on
(05:06):
January twentieth. You know, we're just a little over a
month and a half away from that. I'll be in Washington,
d C. Reporting live on that Monday, January twenty from
the Capitol. I've been working with Drew Sexton, the communications
director for Representative Lauren Bobert, kind of trying to infiltrate
and be an embedded reporter of source, kind of be
(05:28):
the eyes and ears onseen for everybody back home here.
I'm just telling you everything that I observe in real time.
On that day, which will be a historic day, It'll
be a day to celebrate. America is back, both at
home and abroad on the domestic and international stages. There's
a sense of relief that not only I've been feeling,
(05:51):
but I know a lot of you have been feeling
about the Orange Man returning to office. We get him
for these next four years. He can correct course, he
can the ship, he can straighten this all out. And
I feel that the culture shift is happening too. That
comes with that. It's a culture shift unlike anything I
think I've seen, probably since the eighties. I mean Ronald Reagan.
(06:15):
Although he's heralded and certainly celebrated by those of us
on the right, and even those who were rivals of
his at that time, they can't help but like or
even love Ronald Reagan is one of our all time
great presidents in my view, certainly the best president of
my lifetime at age fifty, and he changed the game
(06:35):
the eighties were one of excess, of productivity, of success,
of the American dream coming true once again. It started
with the Miracle on Ice when we were downtrodden a
seventies that was full of depression and violence and darkness
and inflation and tremendous economic struggle and strife that my
(06:59):
family suffered through in the late nineteen seventies. These are
the first formative memories that I have living in a
two bedroom cottage, if you want to call it that,
off of or Lake, just outside of Brighton and Hamburg, Michigan,
in Livingston County. Yeah, we had a leaky roof. I
remember having to help my mom place buckets so we
could collect the water that was dripping through. I mean,
(07:20):
we were pretty close to destitute, so one income household.
My mom was a stay at home mom with myself
and my brother. And I'm telling you, when that calendar
flipped to nineteen eighty, Miracle on Ice happened, Ronald Reagan's elected.
We move as a family to Pinkney, Michigan, to a
nice ranch for the pretty nice yard. My sister Angie
(07:41):
was born, and I'm telling you our family took off.
My dad enjoyed success at work, at Nssuth and ann Arbor.
We had more money to spend. We could go on vacations.
We went to disney World for the first time in
nineteen eighty five, and that's when my other sister, Liz
was born. And then we would move to Grass Lake
into a nice hooter ing ground, pool in the backyard,
(08:03):
three acres of land, two apple trees in the back.
I'm telling you we lived the American dream. It had
all ascended under the watch of President Ronald Reagan in
the boom that was the nineteen eighties. But it wasn't
just economic. It was cultural. You look at the movies
and the television from that time, the influence and the
music at that time. He shadow remembers that you still
(08:25):
got some of your clothes from the eighties, don't you.
If I were to ask you this, it is a
pretty broad question, but you can fill in the blanks
however you want. Shannon, what is your favorite memory or
just favorite event that happened in the nineteen eighties as
you lived through that decade. What stands out to you
if anything, you think about it, you sim around it
a little bit. I really like that car kit. Yes see,
(08:48):
that's what I'm talking about don't hassle the Hoff, and
he doesn't hassle me. You know why we follow each
other on X. That's one of my all time greatest
achievements in life is that Michael David asked Off, who
played Michael on a Night Rider, the show that Shannon's
mentioning there with Kit, what a car, right, and it
was ahead of its time. I think Elon Musk has
(09:09):
maybe dedicated part of his life to recreating a car
like Kit, you know, self driving and can talk to
the driver. I mean, there's a lot of things going
on in that vehicle back then in the early mid eighties.
It's happening now. Visionary television at the time, folks. That
was on NBC and William Daniels is the voice. Yes,
(09:30):
exactly right, David Hasseloff. Yeah, for some reason, this is
a long This is when I first joined what was
then Twitter, and I followed him, and I don't know,
I didn't tweet a lot at the time. I do
now I'm scrised he hasn't unfollowed me. But David Hasselhoff
follows me on AX. I'm so excited about that. Still.
I try to engage with him, but he hasn't really
answered back another one. Now, she was kind of more
(09:51):
of a product of the previous decade, and I think
made a slight comeback in a lot of ways that
many stars did with putting Tarantino in his nineties films.
Jackie Brown, I believe, was called Pam Greer. Another one
that follows me on X. Well she lives here? Does she? Now? Yeh?
Likes in Colorado and Aspen, probably something like that where
(10:12):
the wealthy people live, like Martina Nevertalova has horses down south,
Pam Greer does maybe in Loveland. I well, if she's
that close, Shannon, maybe we need to make a special trip,
you and me in the van. How about it? He's
all for it anyway. All this to say that tomorrow
we're gonna be starting with a new segment. We're going
(10:32):
to dedicate a full hour to it most Fridays, if
not all Fridays. I'm gonna have two different panelists for this,
the first of which will be Deborah Flora. Now, she
has run for both US Senate and US House. She's
a prominent member of the Republican Party. Hearing Colorado formerly
had a top show over on our competing station a
Salem's kN Us, and she has made it known that
(10:56):
she wants to jump back into the entertainment media radio arena,
and she's filled in just this week for Mandy Connell
across the hall at Kowa. But she has extensive experience
in filmmaking along with her husband, who's a great guy,
Jonathan as well. He's worked with and for Disney and WWE,
and I think he had a hand in some Star
(11:17):
Wars stuff. I've talked to him a little bit about that.
But they both have a friendship that dates back several
years now with Gary Sonise and part of Friends of Aid,
the conservatives of Hollywood, and then some of them we
know by name. Some of them stand out, John Voight
being one of those, for instance. He's very vocal and
I appreciate and admire him greatly because it's so difficult,
(11:39):
or it has been, perhaps that's beginning to be past
tense to be someone in Hollywood trying to get a job,
trying to get that next film opportunity or television role.
And what we see and what I want to talk
about with Deborah tomorrow in particular, are the people that
she knows and start there where you know you're see
(11:59):
in the Trump dam in NFL games, in college football games.
I have to anticipate that President elect Trump will be
at the Army Navy game. Can you imagine the reception
he's going to get there. That's going to be incredible.
Joe Biden won't go anywhere near it, But just that
being part of it and how people are coming out,
(12:20):
it's really I'm coming out. I want the world to
know that I'm a conservative and it's okay or I
support Donald Trump. The Orange Man's not as bad as
people were telling us. And even the people that were
telling us that are kind of folding up their tents
right now. You notice there were no disturbances riots across
America when Trump won. I would have guaranteed you with
(12:42):
all the stuff that was going on with the anti Israel,
anti Semitic, anti Jewish protests on college campuses, not a
peep when Trump won. Can you explain that to me?
Why were the left just resigned to the fact that
lean know it Trump? Trump won, He won far and square,
he won the popular vote, he won an electoral college landslide.
(13:05):
There's we got nothing now, that's rather a dream scenario.
They're gonna find a way to obstruct and try to end.
They're doing it right now with the nominees and so forth.
Pete hag Seth, probably Telsea Gabbard, probably RFK Junior. They've
already jettisoned Matt Gates. But I think it's time to
hold fast. We have the winning hand. There's no reason
(13:25):
to fold the winning hand. You gotta know when to
hold him, know when to fold them. I know that,
but it doesn't It feels different. There's a reason why
I have a spring in my step and I feel
more optimistic than I have in a really long time,
because I think a majority of America, and it might
be just a slim majority, but that's enough, has figured
(13:46):
it out, has kind of eyeballed the media and considered
them for what they are, which isn't very much. And
with this new perspective, there are more and more people
and it's slow, but it's steady. Hulk Hogan after the
assassination attempt, he said, I've supported Donald Trump this whole
(14:08):
time twenty sixteen, twenty twenty, but he wasn't vocal. And
Hulk Hogan has a brand and he's a big name
from the eighties going back to that decade, but you know,
he didn't want to alienate fans. I get that he
needed to play it down the middle, or at least
have that perception. But when Trump got shot at that
was it. He was maga and not afraid to say it.
And I think eventually people evolved to a point where
(14:31):
they were no longer afraid of the consequences of the
cancel culture. Look at Mayor Eric Adams right now New
York City, former Republican now a Democrat, kind of shaky
at first as mayor. He's not perfect, He's far from it.
He's not built a Blasio, though, who is far infinitely worse,
and Mayor Adams is coming around. Good for him. It
might be politically motivated, fine, but at least he's putting
(14:54):
his money where his mouth is and speaking out against
this leftist canceled culture, illegal immigrant that just leads to
our own destruction. He's watching it happen in real time
in New York City and he's had enough and he
doesn't care what anybody thinks. And he's going to cooperate
with Tom Homan and Ice and the borders are and
getting criminal illegal aliens out. There's no defense for that,
(15:18):
but many on the left, like Mike Johnston and Denver
apparently Jared Polis and the governor's position here in Colorado,
which I think is a bad calculation for a guy
that's trying to tack toward the middle, distance himself from
Joe Biden, criticize the pardon of Hunter Biden as he
has firm to say no Colorado sanctuary state, Denver sanctuary city.
(15:40):
Come one, come all, all the illegals, criminals. Yep, you too,
trendy Iragua, You're welcome here. Roll out the red carpet,
the welcome Matt. Spend all the money on them, hundreds
of millions of dollars at the expense of Denver rights
parks and rec Department cuts, Gone jobs within Denver, gone,
homeless veterans that need our help, who served our country,
who risk their lives through our country. Nope, you go
(16:02):
to the back of the line. The illegals come first. Why.
I think more and more there are people that might
have even voted Democrat, most are, if not all of
their lives that might be center left. They're going, I'm out.
I'm out on this. I might not be a Republican,
but I'm not this. I don't want to support this.
So we'll see what happens when the rubber meets the road,
(16:22):
when the ICE agents finally come here. And they will, oh,
they will, And if Mayor Mike Johnston is resolute in
standing by Trendy Arragua violent criminal gang members who chase
Cindy and Ed Romero out of Aurora in their apartment
complex there and doing much the same. They have a
(16:42):
presence in Denver, and Mike Johnston has tried to export
this problem to all neighboring locales, including Aurora, including Lakewood,
and it seems like he's willing to go to jail
for that. He has said that again, following up in
an interview with Mark Salinger and nine News. Let's test
that theory. Let's see who blinks first. Let's play Chicken
(17:03):
Lake on the tractor in Footloose with Kevin Bacon, who
gets the shoelace tied around the axle there. I doubt
that Mike Johnston really believes that he has the winning hand.
He does not. Now, maybe in Denver from a far
left standpoint in the way that people vote here, I
mean possibly, but it doesn't play in Peoria. It doesn't
(17:23):
play nation wide. It didn't play in any of the
seven swing states, not one. Kamala Harris was the first
presidential candidate since Herbert Hoover running for reelection after the
stock market crash of nineteen twenty nine, going back now
to nineteen thirty two FDR of course, winning his first
(17:44):
term in office and four more after that. That's the
last time that a presidential candidate had not flipped a
single county, a single county in a single state, in
all of the nation in a presidential race. That happened
to Kamala Harris. Now we see a month later, as
of today today's December fifth, the election was on November fifth.
(18:06):
There was another dump of provisional ballots just counted in
New York City, and wouldn't you know, it completely favored
Kamala Harrison the Democrats and narrowed Donald Trump's margin in
the popular vote to one point five percent. How in
a country that really founded the modern system of government,
that is a constitutional republic which runs democratic elections voted
(18:28):
on by the people, how are we in this nation
in year twenty twenty four still counting ballots a month later?
Were they still counting ballots a month later in eighteen hundred,
in eighteen sixty four, during the American Civil War, at
any point in the twentieth century, we had millions and
millions of people by the late twentieth century voting in elections.
(18:49):
And this point was made by Jeff Crank, Congressman elect
from the fifth Congressional District here in Colorado yesterday nineteen
eighty four, nineteen eighty we knew the night of the election.
At night President Reagan was president elect against Jimmy Carter.
We weren't counting votes for a month after. We have
(19:09):
better technology. Now, how do we have technology that's forty
years newer, forty years better, and yet it takes forty
days longer, it seems, to count votes. We need reforms.
The Republicans have to do this and make this a priority.
And Jeff Crank told us yesterday that's exactly what they're
going to do. A timeout, our first edition of Based
(19:30):
Fetterman coming up next to Ryan Schuling live and now
everybody's favorite Democratic Congress with another edition of Based Fetterman.
I think should be really transparent. I think he finally
(19:51):
I'm considered voting yes for him if he's possible, But
I think he has to finally admit that he wears
lists in the boots throughout his whole campaign. Was it
four inches? America wants to know? According to Senator John Fetterman,
Democrat Pennsylvania, implying that Governor Ronda Santis was wearing either
(20:11):
three or four inch lifts in his shoes during the
twenty twenty four campaign. Now, John Fetterman, to his credit,
he's really plugged in. He's very online. So anything that
becomes scuttle butt on X, he's on top of it.
And he is saying that if let's say Rond de
Santis were offered up instead of Pete Hegseth for Secretary
of Defense, well he would consider confirming the Sunshine State
(20:34):
governor provided that Rond de Santis fests up to wearing
lifts in his shoes. Just one of two based Fetterman
editions you'll hear today on Ryan Schuley Live. You can
send us a text five seven seven three nine, and
this one reads as follows. Trump needs to pound the
(20:55):
table on this and get it done in his four years.
Congress needs to vote on better VOE voting regulations and
none of this vote by mail. Bs Well I'm right
there with you, Texter. I came here when I was told,
oh no, no, no, it's all vote by mail, I'm like, well,
that doesn't sound good. I don't like the whole loss
of chain of custody of the ballot. It's in a bin. Okay,
who's watching that or there? Security cameras are there? Who's
(21:17):
watching the security cameras? And then what happens to the
ballot the whole time that it's in the bin. Who
acts this as the ben who has a key to
the bin at any one time? How many ballots can
you put in the bin? Only ten? Well? What if
I put eleven? What if somebody does in the middle
of the night, does ten one night? Ten another? Does
it add up? I mean, just keep going. They're limited
to ten a day. Go harvest some more, go to
(21:37):
the old folks home. Make sure that those people who
are practically invalids or have Alzheimer's don't know who they're
voting for. They fill it out for the Democrat and
they turn it in. I'm just going to say where
this has been done in the here particular vote by
mail only. You've noticed the elections have all gone one way.
Hard to the left here in Colorado? Why would that be?
(22:00):
Can also dovetail that perhaps off of the legalization of
marijuana here that has brought more Democratic voters in the
form of marijuana users. But the vote by mail thing,
I think there's a correlation there. I can't prove it necessarily,
but I believe there are those who may have done
more research than me. How do you Ganaal being one
of those who may be able to attest to this?
(22:21):
And I think we need to get back to basics.
We need to be able to count our votes in
one night or the next day at the very latest.
I don't care what state you're in. Florida does it.
Florida's got a hell of a lot more people than
we do, not quite as many as California. But California
was counting ballots up until a couple of days ago
in a congressional race and a Democrat flipped that one
(22:41):
a Republican was leading. And then as they continue to
count ballots and these imaginary provisional ballots, are they citizens?
I don't know. Do you have to provide voter ID?
Probably not. People who are not citizens of this country
should not vote in our elections. That was one of
the primary tenets of the founding of this country, along
with who can run for office? Now there was a
(23:03):
run and I remember this from some years ago. Arnold
Schwarzenegger was so popular as the governor of California when
he stepped in for Gray Davis, who was recalled and
voted out that well. Arnold was born in Austria, so
as such, per the Constitution, he is ineligible to run
for president of the United States. Well, naturalized citizens, they
should be able to run for president. We haven't made
(23:24):
that change yet, not through legislation, not through an amendment,
nothing like that. So that stands the rule. So if
you can't run for president as a non citizen, that
goes without saying, or it should. How should a foreign
national be equipped to vote in our election, no matter
who they are, no matter where they're from. Should Emmanuel
(23:44):
macrone Go, I want the vote for Kamala be able
to come over here and as the president Prime Minister
of France be able to cast a ballot in our election.
We shouldn't be able to vote in their elections. I
don't want to be able to vote in their elections.
We have our elections. I'm an American. I am a
real American. To quote the Dull Cogan song, you are
(24:04):
all real Americans. And if you came here as an
immigrant and you went through the right process, you became
an American citizen, then you get that precious, sacred right
to vote, but not if you didn't follow the rules.
Get the absolute blank out of here with that crap.
And I think America is turning on this. If you're
here illegally, that in and of itself is a crime.
(24:25):
You have committed a crime against the United States federally.
And if you're going to commit that crime, what's to
stop you from committing other crimes? What's to compel you
to follow the law? You didn't follow the first law
that you have an opportunity to follow when you cross
the border. You disregard that law. You can disregard whatever laws.
And look what's happening across the country with this rash
(24:46):
of crime committed by illegal aliens who should not be here,
who have no stake in the game here, who have
known skin in the game here. If you're a citizen,
you have something invested in this country. You have a job,
you have an address. And then the pushback that we
get from the left, this is so just gross. Well,
who therefore will pick our crops, who will work in
(25:10):
our fields, who will gather the fruits and vegetables for
us to eat? Do you hear yourselves? When you're talking
like this, you're making a pledge for indentured servitude at best.
And of course, slavery is where that next argument's going.
That's the very argument that was made in the eighteen
(25:32):
sixties when the Republican Party was founded as the anti
slavery Party, when Abraham Lincoln wrote the Emancipation Proclamation as
a Republican eighteen sixty three, when a reconstruction happened and
President Ulysses S. Grant was trying to bring the country together.
The South and the Democrats fought it tooth and nail.
(25:53):
One of the arguments was, we're gonna cut our economy
if we can't use slave labor. This is the very
basis for our American economy and survival here can't get
rid of slaves. This is the argument that's being made
by the left and Democrats about keeping illegals here to
work to undercut wages. I mean, anybody that's a part
of a union as an American laborer should be against
illegal labor. It undercuts wages, It depresses the quality of
(26:19):
life for the illegals that are here. It does not
validate them, it does not humanize them. It treats them
as something less than human. That they're here for our
own amusement, so that we can eat very cheap fruits
and vegetables. No, have them on a plan, have them
be legalized status whatever that takes, screen cards and otherwise,
(26:40):
there's a way to do that. As an employer, you
don't have to rely on cheap illegal labor. That's gross.
But I shouldn't have to say that this Texas, says Ryan.
I was born and raised in the state of Colorado.
Democrats were not able to take over the state until
they instituted mail in ballots, and then it took only
three to four years for the state to turn over
to the Democrats. Yeah, like a supermajority in one of
(27:01):
the houses of the Assembly, Republicans have an uphill battle
as it is. The reason this is just one, but
as we go to break, I'll give you this one
reason as to why all vote by mail is institutionally
an inherent advantage and a severe advantage for Democrats, because
Democrats tend to congregate and reside in densely populated urban
(27:25):
areas and is much more It's much easier to harvest
ballots in a condensed area. You just get a whole
bunch of them, You corall them a bunch at one,
you deposit in one of these deposit boxes. You know,
we got a lot of Republican voters here, we're outnumbered.
But you got to go to the outer rural reaches
for a lot of where these Republican voters live, and
they don't all live together. We can't corral them as easily.
(27:48):
And so the Democrats when you make it so that
it's easy to cheat, and I'm not saying that they
always do, or that they do in large numbers, but
is it open to that? Does it? Do we open
ourselves up to that? Yes, election day used to mean something.
We should vote on election day with paper ballots. We
should have those in our own possession as voters. We
should put them into the machine ourselves. We should have
(28:10):
volunteers working at precincts where any precinct is easily accessed
by any person who wants to vote. It's like Brian
kempt the Governor Georgia said it should be easy to vote,
but hard to cheat, and that's not what we have
right now. Brian, did I miss based Fetterman. Well, it's
good news bad news, Texter. The bad news is you
missed the first one. The good news is there will
(28:30):
be a second one coming up in hour number two.
We'll take this break when we come back. I really
want to get into the details of Chase strange Geo.
You cannot convince me that's a real name. Now, this
is the trans attorney who was arguing before the Supreme
Court of the United States who was born female now
identifies as male. That's fine, but come on, the name
(28:52):
Chase strange Eo. It conjures up memories of Pierre de Lecto,
the alter ego of Mitt Romney on Twitter. You remember that.
I think Chase Angio and Pierre de Lucto are friends.
But anyway, there's some really out there arguments being offered
up to a Supreme Court that I believe is going
to vote six ' to three in favor of the
(29:12):
Tennessee ban on transgender procedures, both surgeries and hormones for minors.
We'll talk more about this with doctor Rich Guggenheim. He
is a prominent member of Gays Against Groomers based right
here in Colorado. He was at the Capitol over these
last couple of days. He was speaking out as a
prominent voice in the LGBTQ community against gender transitioning for children.
(29:37):
And we'll get his thoughts in the three o'clock hour tomorrow.
Just to clean up earlier what I said about this
Hollywood on the Rights segment that we'll have on Fridays,
It'll generally be the two o'clock hour. That's easiest for
Christian Toto, who will also be a part of this
Hollywood Intoto dot Com, and Debrah Flora will be joining us,
so it'll normally be like a three person arrangement live
(29:57):
in studio here every Friday in the two o'clock hour.
Christian can't make it, he's got a hockey tournament for
his son this weekend. But Deborah will be in studio
tomorrow and I look forward to visiting with her about
all of these cultural changes that are happening in the
wake of Trump's victory. Most notably, the one I want
to ask her about is Justine Bateman. Remember Mallory from
Family Ties Now her brother Jason. I don't know. Christian
(30:20):
seems to think that he might be too far gone.
But Justine, ever since Trump won, she's been based in
coming back on X and being very vocal about the
fact that this canceled culture stuff it needs to end
and it should be over and common sense should return.
I would love to talk to Justine Bateman. I don't
know that she's going to be granting interviews anytime soon,
but we'll be working on it here on Ryan Schuling
(30:43):
Live Who We're back to wrap up hour number one
after this.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
So the case comes at a time when twenty sixth
day to pass laws restricting healthcare treatments for transgender youth.
According to a scene in an asis of data from
the nonprofit think tank Movement Advancement Projects, So how do
you plan to argue before the US Supreme Court in
a case that could have wind ranging implications beyond the
state of Tennessee.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
Well, thank you for having me, Jake, And obviously this
is a critical inflection point for transgender people across the country.
We're coming off of an election season where transgender people
played an outside role in people's consciousness in terms of
the way in which we were situated as a threat
to others. And when we look at the map of
states that ban this type of evidence dates healthcare, we
went from zero states that had these bands in twenty
(31:30):
twenty to now more than half the country.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
So before the Court tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (31:34):
The question is really a simple one as I see it,
it's really this is a lot that bans medical treatment
only when it is prescribed inconsistent with an individual sex.
Our argument is that that treats people differently because of
their sex, and therefore the court has to treat it
like all other forms of sex discrimination, and that's why
it's unconstitutional.
Speaker 1 (31:53):
Noticeably absent and Chase strange Geo's presentation, they're a Jake
Tamper on CNN back here on Ryan Schuling Live now.
With regard to any other individual rights, miners are a
subject to different standards than adults. An adult who wants
to go through a trans surgery or treatment, any of
(32:15):
those things, should be free to do so. Chase Strangio
should be free to identify as a male. Whatever floats,
Chases boat. Now, when that individual's rights infringe upon those
of others, we've got an issue. We've got a problem
that has been the conversation in America over this last year,
and it was a big issue during this presidential campaign,
(32:37):
and it bears out that not only Donald Trump, but
Republicans writ large one, bigly on this issue because most
Americans simply are not comfortable with those who are biological
men identifying as women participating in the same sports and
spaces as biological women. It's that simple. Now, when it
(32:59):
comes to my looking to be prescribed hormone blockers, you
are affecting the growth and development both cognitively and structurally
of a young person that cannot be repaired. You cannot
retrieve puberty. It happens at a certain age for a
certain reason. It's nature, it's biology. It dates back tens
(33:21):
of thousands of years. And when you remove that, do
you honestly think that it just happens in a vacuum
that nothing fills that void. Bones become hollow and more breakable,
the heart muscle not as strong, the muscle structure not
as strong. We don't know what the long term effects
of these treatments are. We can't know them yet. There
(33:43):
hasn't been enough time that has gone by yet and
a big enough sample size established. This is a fallacy.
It's foolhardy, and you're ascribing rights to miners when miners
to chop off body parts. Do not have a right
until they are age eighteen to simply get a tattoo.
(34:03):
They can't drink alcohol until they're twenty one. They can't
rent a car until they're twenty five. Are you going
to stand there and argue that a six year old
should be able to rent a car, drink alcohol, get
a tattoo. Then why would you suggest that it's perfectly
fine for them to have their penis and testicles removed
(34:24):
or they're breast chopped off. Strangeo continues here with Jake Tapper.
We're going to get to all of this heading into
our number two as well.
Speaker 2 (34:33):
So attorneys representing the state of Tennessee told the US
Supreme Court, quote, if the government's theory holds, men who
identify as women could claim constitutionally based access to women's bathrooms,
women's locker rooms, and women's sports, excepting that theory would
perversely erode women's rights and jeopardize landmark statutes protecting women's
(34:56):
equal access to schools, winners, podiums, and and beyond.
Speaker 3 (35:00):
What's your response, correct, Well, I obviously disagree with that
premise that allowing transgender women into women's sports or women's
bathroom is a threat to women, but it is also
not the question before the court in this.
Speaker 1 (35:12):
Uh quickly easy for Chase Strangio to say, now, this
is a trans person and reverse from what was just described.
This is a biological female identifying as a man. But
when a biological man fully intact enters into a women's
locker room, a women's restroom, that in and of itself
is a threat. And I got to get real specific
(35:35):
here because apparently the left is lost on them, or
at least they're pretending. So a functional penis is fully
capable of inflicting harm on a woman in a vulnerable space.
Do I need to go further? Let's hope not case.
Speaker 3 (35:50):
And in fact, it is a totally independent question about
whether a law that bands medical care for transgender adolescence
discriminates against people based on sex versus The separate is
that preceded any of these healthcare bands will continue to
be litigated in the courts regardless of the outcome here,
So that clearly is conflating a bunch of different questions.
The question before the court tomorrow is about whether banning
(36:12):
medical care overriding the consent of parents the recommendations of doctors,
is a violation of equal protection.
Speaker 1 (36:20):
What is a violation of a young person's health and
well being mentally and physically, no matter what a equat
doctor says. And this was exposed largely in What Is
a Woman, the landmark brounbreaking film by Matt Walsh that
if you haven't seen, you need to see. And there
are plenty of people with regret remorse who want to detransition,
(36:43):
who have testified, and we'll get to one of those,
Katie Lennon from Lowell, Massachusetts when we return. More comments
from Chase Strangio and more from the court proceedings at
the Supreme Court of the United States yesterday from Justices
Samuel Ledo and more notably and shockingly Sonya so To
Mayor and Kintanji Brown Jackson our number two Ryan Shuling
Live straight ahead
Oh well to day to have the Detroit connection intact
with Shannon Scott on the other side of the glass.
It's a big night tonight for those of you who
are NFL fans, even if you're not following the Detroit
Lions as I do so closely in the stream season
that is ongoing. We've been terrible for sixty seven years.
(00:20):
Sixty seven years. My dad was ten the last time
the Lions won an NFL title. I was back in
nineteen fifty seven, and largely Lions fans have been suffering
ever since. And this year the story's a little bit different.
It changed last year, but now the Lions are a
an all time best eleven and one, and they host
(00:42):
the Green Bay Packers tonight. Both teams played on Thanksgiving Thursday,
so it's a full week for both of them coming
into a night's game. Now, the Packers are great too,
to Kelly Cacerra's credit. For some reason, she's a Packers fan.
She was born and raised in southern California and went
to school at West Lafayette at Purdue in Indiana. Chose
not to roof for the Bears the Monsters of the Midway,
(01:04):
but instead the Packers so tonight we are squaring off.
JD's will be the venue. JD's Bait Shop, Christian Toto
will be there. It'll be a cast of several and
Shannon Scott, you're invited. I might do it. I think
you should. We're gonna have a table. You're welcome to
join us. And I need a little bit of help
in helping, you know, balancing out the equation because both
(01:26):
Kelly and her husband Adam are Packers fans and we're
trying to make up for last year. The NFL script
didn't allow for it because of the psyop known as
Taylor Swift. Yeah, I don't know. That NFC title game.
My goodness, it was such a tease for somebody. I
mean it was. It was cruel and unusual punishment for
(01:47):
somebody like me that has suffered through all these horrible
years of the Lions. And they're up, was it? Twenty
four to seven at halftime against the forty nine Ers
in San Francisco? And then Josh Reynolds drops a pass
that would send him to Denver and the Lions took
Tim Patrick in return. That's been a pretty good swap
for the Honolulu Blue and Silver Bronco's having a good
(02:08):
season too, Shannon, looks like they might make a playoffs
for the first time since winning the Super Bowl of
Peyton Manning. That's been a while, maybe by Denver standards,
that's a long drought from the postseason. So an exciting
you're really here in Denver and then back home in Detroit.
My dream super Bowl be Broncos Lions, of course, and
you know where my rooting interests would be. But I
(02:30):
would be very happy if the Broncos were to win
a Super Bowl, if it came at the Lions expense,
I could at least take that. I don't want to
lose to a team like the Chiefs though, and I
know a lot of people around here agree with that.
If the Super Bowl and it could be Lions Chiefs,
I mean, everybody here in Denver is gonna be rooting
for Detroit, right Shannon, nobody's gotta root for Kansas City
and Taylor Swift and Travis Kelcey and Patrick Mahomes. Andy
(02:53):
Reid maybe, though he's really funny in those commercials, Fumbruski
Ruski doo. I don't know he's he has no shame
and that's in the funniest way possible. So little taste
of football there for you. As we start this Thursday,
hopefully on a happy note, I've got some other uplifting
(03:14):
content for you. Now. Recall that I've introduced a new bit.
Once President Trump has sworn in. We've already broken you
in with some of Trump's hot takes set to Donna
Summers looking for some hot stuff baby tonight. Well, we
now have a new bit because I just every time
this guy's in the news, he cracks me up, kind
(03:36):
of makes me think, and he gives me hope that
not every Democrat needs to be dismissed out of hand
and combat it against And that's John Fetterman. I don't
know what the stroke did to him, but since he's
come too and since he's covered to some degree, Shannon,
he's kind of a cool guy. I like him, and
(03:59):
a lot of the kids out there, the gen z
is like Zach. They're calling him based Soul our new feature.
And you'll hear at the bottom of this hour and
the bottom of our number two Based Fetterman, and you're
just gonna hear his take. You might agree with it,
you might not. But the one thing you'll have to
agree on is that it's based, meaning it's coming from
(04:21):
an authentic place. He's telling you what he thinks. He's
telling it like it is, at least as he sees it.
Those are the kind of people I appreciate, and they're
all too rare in politics. You ask him a question
and they give you a direct, honest answer. They don't
off you skate, they don't spin the talking points. I mean,
that's the certain thing about Senator John Fetterman. He does
(04:43):
not operate of a script or talking points or a
memo or anything else. So I'm hoping you'll be entertained
by that. Coming up a little bit later on both
this hour and next tomorrow, we're gonna have a lot
of fun too, and I'm changing the up once again
for the twenty twenty five. I've got a lot of
spring of my step for President Trump getting inaugurated on
(05:06):
January twentieth. You know, we're just a little over a
month and a half away from that. I'll be in Washington,
d C. Reporting live on that Monday, January twenty from
the Capitol. I've been working with Drew Sexton, the communications
director for Representative Lauren Bobert, kind of trying to infiltrate
and be an embedded reporter of source, kind of be
(05:28):
the eyes and ears onseen for everybody back home here.
I'm just telling you everything that I observe in real time.
On that day, which will be a historic day, It'll
be a day to celebrate. America is back, both at
home and abroad on the domestic and international stages. There's
a sense of relief that not only I've been feeling,
(05:51):
but I know a lot of you have been feeling
about the Orange Man returning to office. We get him
for these next four years. He can correct course, he
can the ship, he can straighten this all out. And
I feel that the culture shift is happening too. That
comes with that. It's a culture shift unlike anything I
think I've seen, probably since the eighties. I mean Ronald Reagan.
(06:15):
Although he's heralded and certainly celebrated by those of us
on the right, and even those who were rivals of
his at that time, they can't help but like or
even love Ronald Reagan is one of our all time
great presidents in my view, certainly the best president of
my lifetime at age fifty, and he changed the game
(06:35):
the eighties were one of excess, of productivity, of success,
of the American dream coming true once again. It started
with the Miracle on Ice when we were downtrodden a
seventies that was full of depression and violence and darkness
and inflation and tremendous economic struggle and strife that my
(06:59):
family suffered through in the late nineteen seventies. These are
the first formative memories that I have living in a
two bedroom cottage, if you want to call it that,
off of or Lake, just outside of Brighton and Hamburg, Michigan,
in Livingston County. Yeah, we had a leaky roof. I
remember having to help my mom place buckets so we
could collect the water that was dripping through. I mean,
(07:20):
we were pretty close to destitute, so one income household.
My mom was a stay at home mom with myself
and my brother. And I'm telling you, when that calendar
flipped to nineteen eighty, Miracle on Ice happened, Ronald Reagan's elected.
We move as a family to Pinkney, Michigan, to a
nice ranch for the pretty nice yard. My sister Angie
(07:41):
was born, and I'm telling you our family took off.
My dad enjoyed success at work, at Nssuth and ann Arbor.
We had more money to spend. We could go on vacations.
We went to disney World for the first time in
nineteen eighty five, and that's when my other sister, Liz
was born. And then we would move to Grass Lake
into a nice hooter ing ground, pool in the backyard,
(08:03):
three acres of land, two apple trees in the back.
I'm telling you we lived the American dream. It had
all ascended under the watch of President Ronald Reagan in
the boom that was the nineteen eighties. But it wasn't
just economic. It was cultural. You look at the movies
and the television from that time, the influence and the
music at that time. He shadow remembers that you still
(08:25):
got some of your clothes from the eighties, don't you.
If I were to ask you this, it is a
pretty broad question, but you can fill in the blanks
however you want. Shannon, what is your favorite memory or
just favorite event that happened in the nineteen eighties as
you lived through that decade. What stands out to you
if anything, you think about it, you sim around it
a little bit. I really like that car kit. Yes see,
(08:48):
that's what I'm talking about don't hassle the Hoff, and
he doesn't hassle me. You know why we follow each
other on X. That's one of my all time greatest
achievements in life is that Michael David asked Off, who
played Michael on a Night Rider, the show that Shannon's
mentioning there with Kit, what a car, right, and it
was ahead of its time. I think Elon Musk has
(09:09):
maybe dedicated part of his life to recreating a car
like Kit, you know, self driving and can talk to
the driver. I mean, there's a lot of things going
on in that vehicle back then in the early mid eighties.
It's happening now. Visionary television at the time, folks. That
was on NBC and William Daniels is the voice. Yes,
(09:30):
exactly right, David Hasseloff. Yeah, for some reason, this is
a long This is when I first joined what was
then Twitter, and I followed him, and I don't know,
I didn't tweet a lot at the time. I do
now I'm scrised he hasn't unfollowed me. But David Hasselhoff
follows me on AX. I'm so excited about that. Still.
I try to engage with him, but he hasn't really
answered back another one. Now, she was kind of more
(09:51):
of a product of the previous decade, and I think
made a slight comeback in a lot of ways that
many stars did with putting Tarantino in his nineties films.
Jackie Brown, I believe, was called Pam Greer. Another one
that follows me on X. Well she lives here? Does she? Now? Yeh?
Likes in Colorado and Aspen, probably something like that where
(10:12):
the wealthy people live, like Martina Nevertalova has horses down south,
Pam Greer does maybe in Loveland. I well, if she's
that close, Shannon, maybe we need to make a special trip,
you and me in the van. How about it? He's
all for it anyway. All this to say that tomorrow
we're gonna be starting with a new segment. We're going
(10:32):
to dedicate a full hour to it most Fridays, if
not all Fridays. I'm gonna have two different panelists for this,
the first of which will be Deborah Flora. Now, she
has run for both US Senate and US House. She's
a prominent member of the Republican Party. Hearing Colorado formerly
had a top show over on our competing station a
Salem's kN Us, and she has made it known that
(10:56):
she wants to jump back into the entertainment media radio arena,
and she's filled in just this week for Mandy Connell
across the hall at Kowa. But she has extensive experience
in filmmaking along with her husband, who's a great guy,
Jonathan as well. He's worked with and for Disney and WWE,
and I think he had a hand in some Star
(11:17):
Wars stuff. I've talked to him a little bit about that.
But they both have a friendship that dates back several
years now with Gary Sonise and part of Friends of Aid,
the conservatives of Hollywood, and then some of them we
know by name. Some of them stand out, John Voight
being one of those, for instance. He's very vocal and
I appreciate and admire him greatly because it's so difficult,
(11:39):
or it has been, perhaps that's beginning to be past
tense to be someone in Hollywood trying to get a job,
trying to get that next film opportunity or television role.
And what we see and what I want to talk
about with Deborah tomorrow in particular, are the people that
she knows and start there where you know you're see
(11:59):
in the Trump dam in NFL games, in college football games.
I have to anticipate that President elect Trump will be
at the Army Navy game. Can you imagine the reception
he's going to get there. That's going to be incredible.
Joe Biden won't go anywhere near it, But just that
being part of it and how people are coming out,
(12:20):
it's really I'm coming out. I want the world to
know that I'm a conservative and it's okay or I
support Donald Trump. The Orange Man's not as bad as
people were telling us. And even the people that were
telling us that are kind of folding up their tents
right now. You notice there were no disturbances riots across
America when Trump won. I would have guaranteed you with
(12:42):
all the stuff that was going on with the anti Israel,
anti Semitic, anti Jewish protests on college campuses, not a
peep when Trump won. Can you explain that to me?
Why were the left just resigned to the fact that
lean know it Trump? Trump won, He won far and square,
he won the popular vote, he won an electoral college landslide.
(13:05):
There's we got nothing now, that's rather a dream scenario.
They're gonna find a way to obstruct and try to end.
They're doing it right now with the nominees and so forth.
Pete hag Seth, probably Telsea Gabbard, probably RFK Junior. They've
already jettisoned Matt Gates. But I think it's time to
hold fast. We have the winning hand. There's no reason
(13:25):
to fold the winning hand. You gotta know when to
hold him, know when to fold them. I know that,
but it doesn't It feels different. There's a reason why
I have a spring in my step and I feel
more optimistic than I have in a really long time,
because I think a majority of America, and it might
be just a slim majority, but that's enough, has figured
(13:46):
it out, has kind of eyeballed the media and considered
them for what they are, which isn't very much. And
with this new perspective, there are more and more people
and it's slow, but it's steady. Hulk Hogan after the
assassination attempt, he said, I've supported Donald Trump this whole
(14:08):
time twenty sixteen, twenty twenty, but he wasn't vocal. And
Hulk Hogan has a brand and he's a big name
from the eighties going back to that decade, but you know,
he didn't want to alienate fans. I get that he
needed to play it down the middle, or at least
have that perception. But when Trump got shot at that
was it. He was maga and not afraid to say it.
And I think eventually people evolved to a point where
(14:31):
they were no longer afraid of the consequences of the
cancel culture. Look at Mayor Eric Adams right now New
York City, former Republican now a Democrat, kind of shaky
at first as mayor. He's not perfect, He's far from it.
He's not built a Blasio, though, who is far infinitely worse,
and Mayor Adams is coming around. Good for him. It
might be politically motivated, fine, but at least he's putting
(14:54):
his money where his mouth is and speaking out against
this leftist canceled culture, illegal immigrant that just leads to
our own destruction. He's watching it happen in real time
in New York City and he's had enough and he
doesn't care what anybody thinks. And he's going to cooperate
with Tom Homan and Ice and the borders are and
getting criminal illegal aliens out. There's no defense for that,
(15:18):
but many on the left, like Mike Johnston and Denver
apparently Jared Polis and the governor's position here in Colorado,
which I think is a bad calculation for a guy
that's trying to tack toward the middle, distance himself from
Joe Biden, criticize the pardon of Hunter Biden as he
has firm to say no Colorado sanctuary state, Denver sanctuary city.
(15:40):
Come one, come all, all the illegals, criminals. Yep, you too,
trendy Iragua, You're welcome here. Roll out the red carpet,
the welcome Matt. Spend all the money on them, hundreds
of millions of dollars at the expense of Denver rights
parks and rec Department cuts, Gone jobs within Denver, gone,
homeless veterans that need our help, who served our country,
who risk their lives through our country. Nope, you go
(16:02):
to the back of the line. The illegals come first. Why.
I think more and more there are people that might
have even voted Democrat, most are, if not all of
their lives that might be center left. They're going, I'm out.
I'm out on this. I might not be a Republican,
but I'm not this. I don't want to support this.
So we'll see what happens when the rubber meets the road,
(16:22):
when the ICE agents finally come here. And they will, oh,
they will, And if Mayor Mike Johnston is resolute in
standing by Trendy Arragua violent criminal gang members who chase
Cindy and Ed Romero out of Aurora in their apartment
complex there and doing much the same. They have a
(16:42):
presence in Denver, and Mike Johnston has tried to export
this problem to all neighboring locales, including Aurora, including Lakewood,
and it seems like he's willing to go to jail
for that. He has said that again, following up in
an interview with Mark Salinger and nine News. Let's test
that theory. Let's see who blinks first. Let's play Chicken
(17:03):
Lake on the tractor in Footloose with Kevin Bacon, who
gets the shoelace tied around the axle there. I doubt
that Mike Johnston really believes that he has the winning hand.
He does not. Now, maybe in Denver from a far
left standpoint in the way that people vote here, I
mean possibly, but it doesn't play in Peoria. It doesn't
(17:23):
play nation wide. It didn't play in any of the
seven swing states, not one. Kamala Harris was the first
presidential candidate since Herbert Hoover running for reelection after the
stock market crash of nineteen twenty nine, going back now
to nineteen thirty two FDR of course, winning his first
(17:44):
term in office and four more after that. That's the
last time that a presidential candidate had not flipped a
single county, a single county in a single state, in
all of the nation in a presidential race. That happened
to Kamala Harris. Now we see a month later, as
of today today's December fifth, the election was on November fifth.
(18:06):
There was another dump of provisional ballots just counted in
New York City, and wouldn't you know, it completely favored
Kamala Harrison the Democrats and narrowed Donald Trump's margin in
the popular vote to one point five percent. How in
a country that really founded the modern system of government,
that is a constitutional republic which runs democratic elections voted
(18:28):
on by the people, how are we in this nation
in year twenty twenty four still counting ballots a month later?
Were they still counting ballots a month later in eighteen hundred,
in eighteen sixty four, during the American Civil War, at
any point in the twentieth century, we had millions and
millions of people by the late twentieth century voting in elections.
(18:49):
And this point was made by Jeff Crank, Congressman elect
from the fifth Congressional District here in Colorado yesterday nineteen
eighty four, nineteen eighty we knew the night of the election.
At night President Reagan was president elect against Jimmy Carter.
We weren't counting votes for a month after. We have
(19:09):
better technology. Now, how do we have technology that's forty
years newer, forty years better, and yet it takes forty
days longer, it seems, to count votes. We need reforms.
The Republicans have to do this and make this a priority.
And Jeff Crank told us yesterday that's exactly what they're
going to do. A timeout, our first edition of Based
(19:30):
Fetterman coming up next to Ryan Schuling live and now
everybody's favorite Democratic Congress with another edition of Based Fetterman.
I think should be really transparent. I think he finally
(19:51):
I'm considered voting yes for him if he's possible, But
I think he has to finally admit that he wears
lists in the boots throughout his whole campaign. Was it
four inches? America wants to know? According to Senator John Fetterman,
Democrat Pennsylvania, implying that Governor Ronda Santis was wearing either
(20:11):
three or four inch lifts in his shoes during the
twenty twenty four campaign. Now, John Fetterman, to his credit,
he's really plugged in. He's very online. So anything that
becomes scuttle butt on X, he's on top of it.
And he is saying that if let's say Rond de
Santis were offered up instead of Pete Hegseth for Secretary
of Defense, well he would consider confirming the Sunshine State
(20:34):
governor provided that Rond de Santis fests up to wearing
lifts in his shoes. Just one of two based Fetterman
editions you'll hear today on Ryan Schuley Live. You can
send us a text five seven seven three nine, and
this one reads as follows. Trump needs to pound the
(20:55):
table on this and get it done in his four years.
Congress needs to vote on better VOE voting regulations and
none of this vote by mail. Bs Well I'm right
there with you, Texter. I came here when I was told,
oh no, no, no, it's all vote by mail, I'm like, well,
that doesn't sound good. I don't like the whole loss
of chain of custody of the ballot. It's in a bin. Okay,
who's watching that or there? Security cameras are there? Who's
(21:17):
watching the security cameras? And then what happens to the
ballot the whole time that it's in the bin. Who
acts this as the ben who has a key to
the bin at any one time? How many ballots can
you put in the bin? Only ten? Well? What if
I put eleven? What if somebody does in the middle
of the night, does ten one night? Ten another? Does
it add up? I mean, just keep going. They're limited
to ten a day. Go harvest some more, go to
(21:37):
the old folks home. Make sure that those people who
are practically invalids or have Alzheimer's don't know who they're
voting for. They fill it out for the Democrat and
they turn it in. I'm just going to say where
this has been done in the here particular vote by
mail only. You've noticed the elections have all gone one way.
Hard to the left here in Colorado? Why would that be?
(22:00):
Can also dovetail that perhaps off of the legalization of
marijuana here that has brought more Democratic voters in the
form of marijuana users. But the vote by mail thing,
I think there's a correlation there. I can't prove it necessarily,
but I believe there are those who may have done
more research than me. How do you Ganaal being one
of those who may be able to attest to this?
(22:21):
And I think we need to get back to basics.
We need to be able to count our votes in
one night or the next day at the very latest.
I don't care what state you're in. Florida does it.
Florida's got a hell of a lot more people than
we do, not quite as many as California. But California
was counting ballots up until a couple of days ago
in a congressional race and a Democrat flipped that one
(22:41):
a Republican was leading. And then as they continue to
count ballots and these imaginary provisional ballots, are they citizens?
I don't know. Do you have to provide voter ID?
Probably not. People who are not citizens of this country
should not vote in our elections. That was one of
the primary tenets of the founding of this country, along
with who can run for office? Now there was a
(23:03):
run and I remember this from some years ago. Arnold
Schwarzenegger was so popular as the governor of California when
he stepped in for Gray Davis, who was recalled and
voted out that well. Arnold was born in Austria, so
as such, per the Constitution, he is ineligible to run
for president of the United States. Well, naturalized citizens, they
should be able to run for president. We haven't made
(23:24):
that change yet, not through legislation, not through an amendment,
nothing like that. So that stands the rule. So if
you can't run for president as a non citizen, that
goes without saying, or it should. How should a foreign
national be equipped to vote in our election, no matter
who they are, no matter where they're from. Should Emmanuel
(23:44):
macrone Go, I want the vote for Kamala be able
to come over here and as the president Prime Minister
of France be able to cast a ballot in our election.
We shouldn't be able to vote in their elections. I
don't want to be able to vote in their elections.
We have our elections. I'm an American. I am a
real American. To quote the Dull Cogan song, you are
(24:04):
all real Americans. And if you came here as an
immigrant and you went through the right process, you became
an American citizen, then you get that precious, sacred right
to vote, but not if you didn't follow the rules.
Get the absolute blank out of here with that crap.
And I think America is turning on this. If you're
here illegally, that in and of itself is a crime.
(24:25):
You have committed a crime against the United States federally.
And if you're going to commit that crime, what's to
stop you from committing other crimes? What's to compel you
to follow the law? You didn't follow the first law
that you have an opportunity to follow when you cross
the border. You disregard that law. You can disregard whatever laws.
And look what's happening across the country with this rash
(24:46):
of crime committed by illegal aliens who should not be here,
who have no stake in the game here, who have
known skin in the game here. If you're a citizen,
you have something invested in this country. You have a job,
you have an address. And then the pushback that we
get from the left, this is so just gross. Well,
who therefore will pick our crops, who will work in
(25:10):
our fields, who will gather the fruits and vegetables for
us to eat? Do you hear yourselves? When you're talking
like this, you're making a pledge for indentured servitude at best.
And of course, slavery is where that next argument's going.
That's the very argument that was made in the eighteen
(25:32):
sixties when the Republican Party was founded as the anti
slavery Party, when Abraham Lincoln wrote the Emancipation Proclamation as
a Republican eighteen sixty three, when a reconstruction happened and
President Ulysses S. Grant was trying to bring the country together.
The South and the Democrats fought it tooth and nail.
(25:53):
One of the arguments was, we're gonna cut our economy
if we can't use slave labor. This is the very
basis for our American economy and survival here can't get
rid of slaves. This is the argument that's being made
by the left and Democrats about keeping illegals here to
work to undercut wages. I mean, anybody that's a part
of a union as an American laborer should be against
illegal labor. It undercuts wages, It depresses the quality of
(26:19):
life for the illegals that are here. It does not
validate them, it does not humanize them. It treats them
as something less than human. That they're here for our
own amusement, so that we can eat very cheap fruits
and vegetables. No, have them on a plan, have them
be legalized status whatever that takes, screen cards and otherwise,
(26:40):
there's a way to do that. As an employer, you
don't have to rely on cheap illegal labor. That's gross.
But I shouldn't have to say that this Texas, says Ryan.
I was born and raised in the state of Colorado.
Democrats were not able to take over the state until
they instituted mail in ballots, and then it took only
three to four years for the state to turn over
to the Democrats. Yeah, like a supermajority in one of
(27:01):
the houses of the Assembly, Republicans have an uphill battle
as it is. The reason this is just one, but
as we go to break, I'll give you this one
reason as to why all vote by mail is institutionally
an inherent advantage and a severe advantage for Democrats, because
Democrats tend to congregate and reside in densely populated urban
(27:25):
areas and is much more It's much easier to harvest
ballots in a condensed area. You just get a whole
bunch of them, You corall them a bunch at one,
you deposit in one of these deposit boxes. You know,
we got a lot of Republican voters here, we're outnumbered.
But you got to go to the outer rural reaches
for a lot of where these Republican voters live, and
they don't all live together. We can't corral them as easily.
(27:48):
And so the Democrats when you make it so that
it's easy to cheat, and I'm not saying that they
always do, or that they do in large numbers, but
is it open to that? Does it? Do we open
ourselves up to that? Yes, election day used to mean something.
We should vote on election day with paper ballots. We
should have those in our own possession as voters. We
should put them into the machine ourselves. We should have
(28:10):
volunteers working at precincts where any precinct is easily accessed
by any person who wants to vote. It's like Brian
kempt the Governor Georgia said it should be easy to vote,
but hard to cheat, and that's not what we have
right now. Brian, did I miss based Fetterman. Well, it's
good news bad news, Texter. The bad news is you
missed the first one. The good news is there will
(28:30):
be a second one coming up in hour number two.
We'll take this break when we come back. I really
want to get into the details of Chase strange Geo.
You cannot convince me that's a real name. Now, this
is the trans attorney who was arguing before the Supreme
Court of the United States who was born female now
identifies as male. That's fine, but come on, the name
(28:52):
Chase strange Eo. It conjures up memories of Pierre de Lecto,
the alter ego of Mitt Romney on Twitter. You remember that.
I think Chase Angio and Pierre de Lucto are friends.
But anyway, there's some really out there arguments being offered
up to a Supreme Court that I believe is going
to vote six ' to three in favor of the
(29:12):
Tennessee ban on transgender procedures, both surgeries and hormones for minors.
We'll talk more about this with doctor Rich Guggenheim. He
is a prominent member of Gays Against Groomers based right
here in Colorado. He was at the Capitol over these
last couple of days. He was speaking out as a
prominent voice in the LGBTQ community against gender transitioning for children.
(29:37):
And we'll get his thoughts in the three o'clock hour tomorrow.
Just to clean up earlier what I said about this
Hollywood on the Rights segment that we'll have on Fridays,
It'll generally be the two o'clock hour. That's easiest for
Christian Toto, who will also be a part of this
Hollywood Intoto dot Com, and Debrah Flora will be joining us,
so it'll normally be like a three person arrangement live
(29:57):
in studio here every Friday in the two o'clock hour.
Christian can't make it, he's got a hockey tournament for
his son this weekend. But Deborah will be in studio
tomorrow and I look forward to visiting with her about
all of these cultural changes that are happening in the
wake of Trump's victory. Most notably, the one I want
to ask her about is Justine Bateman. Remember Mallory from
Family Ties Now her brother Jason. I don't know. Christian
(30:20):
seems to think that he might be too far gone.
But Justine, ever since Trump won, she's been based in
coming back on X and being very vocal about the
fact that this canceled culture stuff it needs to end
and it should be over and common sense should return.
I would love to talk to Justine Bateman. I don't
know that she's going to be granting interviews anytime soon,
but we'll be working on it here on Ryan Schuling
(30:43):
Live Who We're back to wrap up hour number one
after this.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
So the case comes at a time when twenty sixth
day to pass laws restricting healthcare treatments for transgender youth.
According to a scene in an asis of data from
the nonprofit think tank Movement Advancement Projects, So how do
you plan to argue before the US Supreme Court in
a case that could have wind ranging implications beyond the
state of Tennessee.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
Well, thank you for having me, Jake, And obviously this
is a critical inflection point for transgender people across the country.
We're coming off of an election season where transgender people
played an outside role in people's consciousness in terms of
the way in which we were situated as a threat
to others. And when we look at the map of
states that ban this type of evidence dates healthcare, we
went from zero states that had these bands in twenty
(31:30):
twenty to now more than half the country.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
So before the Court tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (31:34):
The question is really a simple one as I see it,
it's really this is a lot that bans medical treatment
only when it is prescribed inconsistent with an individual sex.
Our argument is that that treats people differently because of
their sex, and therefore the court has to treat it
like all other forms of sex discrimination, and that's why
it's unconstitutional.
Speaker 1 (31:53):
Noticeably absent and Chase strange Geo's presentation, they're a Jake
Tamper on CNN back here on Ryan Schuling Live now.
With regard to any other individual rights, miners are a
subject to different standards than adults. An adult who wants
to go through a trans surgery or treatment, any of
(32:15):
those things, should be free to do so. Chase Strangio
should be free to identify as a male. Whatever floats,
Chases boat. Now, when that individual's rights infringe upon those
of others, we've got an issue. We've got a problem
that has been the conversation in America over this last year,
and it was a big issue during this presidential campaign,
(32:37):
and it bears out that not only Donald Trump, but
Republicans writ large one, bigly on this issue because most
Americans simply are not comfortable with those who are biological
men identifying as women participating in the same sports and
spaces as biological women. It's that simple. Now, when it
(32:59):
comes to my looking to be prescribed hormone blockers, you
are affecting the growth and development both cognitively and structurally
of a young person that cannot be repaired. You cannot
retrieve puberty. It happens at a certain age for a
certain reason. It's nature, it's biology. It dates back tens
(33:21):
of thousands of years. And when you remove that, do
you honestly think that it just happens in a vacuum
that nothing fills that void. Bones become hollow and more breakable,
the heart muscle not as strong, the muscle structure not
as strong. We don't know what the long term effects
of these treatments are. We can't know them yet. There
(33:43):
hasn't been enough time that has gone by yet and
a big enough sample size established. This is a fallacy.
It's foolhardy, and you're ascribing rights to miners when miners
to chop off body parts. Do not have a right
until they are age eighteen to simply get a tattoo.
(34:03):
They can't drink alcohol until they're twenty one. They can't
rent a car until they're twenty five. Are you going
to stand there and argue that a six year old
should be able to rent a car, drink alcohol, get
a tattoo. Then why would you suggest that it's perfectly
fine for them to have their penis and testicles removed
(34:24):
or they're breast chopped off. Strangeo continues here with Jake Tapper.
We're going to get to all of this heading into
our number two as well.
Speaker 2 (34:33):
So attorneys representing the state of Tennessee told the US
Supreme Court, quote, if the government's theory holds, men who
identify as women could claim constitutionally based access to women's bathrooms,
women's locker rooms, and women's sports, excepting that theory would
perversely erode women's rights and jeopardize landmark statutes protecting women's
(34:56):
equal access to schools, winners, podiums, and and beyond.
Speaker 3 (35:00):
What's your response, correct, Well, I obviously disagree with that
premise that allowing transgender women into women's sports or women's
bathroom is a threat to women, but it is also
not the question before the court in this.
Speaker 1 (35:12):
Uh quickly easy for Chase Strangio to say, now, this
is a trans person and reverse from what was just described.
This is a biological female identifying as a man. But
when a biological man fully intact enters into a women's
locker room, a women's restroom, that in and of itself
is a threat. And I got to get real specific
(35:35):
here because apparently the left is lost on them, or
at least they're pretending. So a functional penis is fully
capable of inflicting harm on a woman in a vulnerable space.
Do I need to go further? Let's hope not case.
Speaker 3 (35:50):
And in fact, it is a totally independent question about
whether a law that bands medical care for transgender adolescence
discriminates against people based on sex versus The separate is
that preceded any of these healthcare bands will continue to
be litigated in the courts regardless of the outcome here,
So that clearly is conflating a bunch of different questions.
The question before the court tomorrow is about whether banning
(36:12):
medical care overriding the consent of parents the recommendations of doctors,
is a violation of equal protection.
Speaker 1 (36:20):
What is a violation of a young person's health and
well being mentally and physically, no matter what a equat
doctor says. And this was exposed largely in What Is
a Woman, the landmark brounbreaking film by Matt Walsh that
if you haven't seen, you need to see. And there
are plenty of people with regret remorse who want to detransition,
(36:43):
who have testified, and we'll get to one of those,
Katie Lennon from Lowell, Massachusetts when we return. More comments
from Chase Strangio and more from the court proceedings at
the Supreme Court of the United States yesterday from Justices
Samuel Ledo and more notably and shockingly Sonya so To
Mayor and Kintanji Brown Jackson our number two Ryan Shuling
