Speaker 2 (00:18):
Giant eagle with firal around you, and I've got a
mountain for a face.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Guessing that's the drugs day.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
This is the Soapbox Champion Podcast. Yes it is. It
is the Soapbox Champion Podcast. It's Tuesday, May twenty seventh,
the year twenty twenty five. In this episode one eighty seven,
Hello everyone, what's up? Good news? Short episode. I'm I'm
(01:02):
counting on a short episode. I think it's going to
be a short episode. I didn't I didn't write down
as much to talk about because well we'll get into that, hope.
Everyone had a fantastic week as the world melts down
around US, Russia, Ukraine War, federal abortion rights overturned, COVID nineteen, vaccine,
(01:25):
vaccine mandates, forty year high inflation under Biden, Tyree Nichols,
the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, Maui fires,
Israel's war on Gaza, Atlantic hurricanes, Trump tariffs, George Floyd
Hamburg train knife attack, monkey pox, elon musk Bock, Twitter,
the death of Queen Elizabeth II, the AI boom, quantum
(01:48):
computing Sudanese civil war that no one talks about global trade,
Trump protest, Kalawa volcano eruption, Pakistan floods, I Ran protest, Turkey,
Assyria earthquake, debt, ceiling crisis, the bricks expansion. That's Brazil, Russia, India, China,
South Africa, The Paris Olympics, Taylor Swift, cultural dominance, UK riots,
(02:14):
Matthew Livelsberger and the Vegas truck That Vegas cyber truck explosion.
Whatever happened to that? The US border crisis. Two presidential
assassination attempts, Thomas Kirk's connection to Black Rock, the FBI
scrubbing the assassination attempt crime scene and cremating Kirk's body immediately.
Ryan Routh hiding in bushes to shoot Trump. What happened
(02:37):
to him? JFK assassination papers released on paid attention. Trump
elected to a second term so much in such a
short amount of time. Maybe we don't have short attention spans.
Maybe our brains doesn't get enough time to process all
of it and before something else happens and it has
to move on. Did you know that there was a
(03:00):
potential Trump assassination? Because I didn't. The guy was them Miller.
I believe his name was v em Is that a name?
I guess anything's name if you get called that. It
was a Coachella, California, October twelfth of last year. A
forty nine year old Las Vegas resident, He was arrested
(03:22):
at checkpoint near a Trump rally in Coachella Valley with
a shotgun, a loaded handgun, high capacity magazine, multiple passports,
and a fake license plate on an unregistered vehicle. Riverside
County Sheriff Chad Byonco suggested this probably quote unquote preventative
third assassination attempt, but the FBI and Secret Service stated
(03:46):
Trump was not in danger and no federal charges linked
to assassination were filed. Miller faces state gun charges with
a court date back in January. Okay, this guy Vim Miller,
self proclaimed Trump supporter for some reason, founder of the
America Happens Network, denied any attempt harm Trump, claiming he
(04:11):
carried firearms for protection due to death threats from his
media work. He attended a mar A Lago event in
April of twenty twenty five and filed a defamation lawsuit
against Sheriff Bianco for the assassination claim. Citing personal and
professional damages. Okay, No federal assassination charges were pursued, and
(04:32):
the incident is not officially classified as an assassination attempt,
despite initial speculation, Okay, okay, just not worth, not media
worthy at all. If it was Biden, we wouldn't hear
the name. We wouldn't hear that name ninety eight times
within the first twelve hours, you know. And despite all
(04:55):
of that, I did have a good week. I hope
you guys did too. I was out of town, out
of town some this past weekend, celebrating Memorial Day and
celebrating a high school graduation. Congratulations, Roslin. We were excited
to celebrate with you, and everyone's very proud of you,
(05:16):
of course, and of course it was very nice to
see you, really, sincerely, it's real now, ros And people
will say all sorts of things, you know. They'll say
things like, oh, now it's the real world. The fun
times are over. Or you'll hear people say now it's
time to work until the day you die. Well, let
(05:38):
me tell you something, Roz. Those people are miserable and
you shouldn't listen to them. What happens now is it's
just up to you The now on that they talk
about is whatever you want it to be. There's no
better time in your life. It's all a blank canvas
(05:58):
right in front of you. Paint whatever you want there
and take how much of her time to do it.
High school was a little springboard and where you land
it's up to you. Will you make mistakes, yes, yes
you will. We all did and we all do still.
(06:21):
Will you recover from them? Absolutely? So enjoy this time.
There's absolutely no reason not to. I also had a
little graduate and my daughter graduated from eighth grade. I'm
now the proud owner of a high school freshman. Crazy.
She graduated last thursday with the Principals Award, Academic Gold Award,
(06:43):
and a President's Education Award for outstanding academic Excellence. We
are so very proud of her, and that's not just
something you say. We are all that and so far,
She's just a decent human being and that's what I'm
most proud of. Throw all the awards away. I'm most
proud of her being just a decent human being, because
(07:06):
that's all you really want as a parent, as a
decent parent. And this is going to sound like bragging,
and I just don't care. Uh, this part this, this
is part of her plans, as you know, for for her,
by us, the parents, we are raising her to be
a decent human being on purpose. All the other great
(07:28):
stuff she does and participates in are all bonuses to us.
They're grand and they're great, and we're glad she gets them.
But our goal is to send out a decent human
to the world when it's time for her to do
and uh, to do so and go out on her own.
It's the very least you can do for your child.
And uh, it's a requirement. It's a requirement. It is.
(07:51):
It's always to it. You must do that for your child,
raise them to be decent. Uh. It's work, it is.
It's burning calories. It's participation, too bad, you gotta do it. It's
pointing them in the right direction. It's all on purpose.
The world needs all the decent human beings it can get.
(08:14):
Be part of their life. Mute the TV. When they
walk in and talk to you, put your phone down
when they come up to you. Listen to them, hear them,
talk to them like they are little people, you know,
not little babies. They're smarter than you think. They just
can't express things like you can just yet. But they're
(08:36):
smart already, So raise them to be decent human beings
and tell them to get their prostates examined. Joe Biden's
last prostate screening was in twenty fourteen. It's looking more
and more obvious that the administration lied to all of us,
of course, about Biden's health. Gaslighting. So it's the Party
(08:59):
of gaslightings. It's not the Party of Joy. It's gaslighting.
The modern Democrats are the reason why the definition and
the word gas lighting is branded into our brains for
all time. Really, the only question is now is how
long did they lie to all of is how long
did they gaslight? Well, here's doctor Drew Pinsky when he
(09:19):
was on the Ruben Report the other day.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
Okay, Drew, So I want you to clean up a
bunch here, because we basically find out that he has
what I guess they would call late stage prostate cancer
Gleason score nine. It has moved to his bones, and
that generally speaking, as I understand it, But clean this up.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
If I'm wrong.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Generally speaking, you would know about this four years. This
is not something that magically appears just like that. The
argument I suppose that the administration or the Biden officials
or doctor or team around him is making is that
if you're over seventy, that perhaps you don't do this
yearly test that virtually everyone over about forty five or
so should be doing.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
So.
Speaker 3 (09:59):
I'm trying to give them every benefit of the doubt here,
but now I will hand.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
It to the professional giving them every benefit of the doubt.
There is some controversy on this, however, experts in prostate
cancer people I'm around all the time, are very clear
the screening should continue and the proof everybody is in
the pudding.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
Look at how this played out.
Speaker 4 (10:20):
It didn't have to happen like this if he had
been properly screened. If indeed, and by the way, this
falls into what Adam Carolla always calls stupid or liar, right,
and I be stupid and not doing the screening in
this man, who's, by the way, deteriorating. If an old
man is deteriating, you look for an explanation for that.
The cancer itself could be the explanation for the deterioration.
(10:42):
Over the last two years. People with parkinsonism, people with
dementias of various types, even minimal cognitive change get worse
when they have any medical problems. So it's all under
the category of stupid liar. And the reality is, because
we have no confidence in what comes out of that
group the Biden minus that we immediately assume it's lying
(11:02):
or obfuscating or just supporting or somehow we're not getting
the whole story because it doesn't make sense that the
president of United States wouldn't be screened at the highest
level of what's available for any individual. And the fact
that he carded around this osteopath with him to run
I guess cover for him for his medical problems. I
don't know why that guy was there. He apparently got
(11:23):
in between the president and the Walter Read physicians clearly
because had it been up to the highest standards, he
would have been screened regularly.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
This would have been picked up early.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
There would have been no problem with it.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
He's coaching.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
There is significant evidence suggesting that the Biden administration was
not fully transparent about former President Joe Biden's health, you know,
at very least, particularly regarding his mental and physical condition
during his presidency, you know, while he was running this nation. Supposedly,
multiple sources, including a book by journalists Jake Tapper and
(11:58):
Alex Thompson, titled Original Sin, President Biden's Decline, Its cover
Up and his disastrous choice to run again, allege that
Biden's inner circle concealed that this evident and the extent
of his cognitive and physical decline. The book details instances
or aids managed to schedule manage his schedule to limit
(12:22):
public exposure to his non functioning moments and avoid critical
meetings or interactions that might reveal his condition. And while
all that is most likely true, and I have no doubt,
I think it's real crappy that Jake Tapper releases this book. Uh,
you don't just write a book in two months like this.
(12:44):
You you were writing that book because you knew, you know. Uh,
It's just I don't know, it's just weird that a
book comes out about that. And is that Is that
an appropriate thing to write about a former president that's
still alive and still sick, still ill and may be suffering.
I'm not sure. I'm not sure it's appropriate. Interesting he
(13:04):
has a scuttle button. Shit, yeah, not appropriate in my opinion.
But following Biden's announcement on May sixteenth of stage four
prostate cancer diagnosis with metastasis to the bone. Questions immediately
arose the why the disease was not detected earlier, given
his access to top tier medical care, the finest in
(13:26):
the world. His last known prostate specific enagen test PSA
was in twenty fourteen. As annual physicals as president, including
the most recent in February of twenty twenty four did
not include PSA screenings, which it aligns with medical guidelines
for men over seventy, of course, but also its field
(13:48):
speculation about oversight or concealment. He's not a regular guy.
He's not most men. He's the President of the United States,
and he should be screened for all that at least
yearly my opinion. Uh Doctor Ezekiel Emmanuel, an oncologist and
former Biden White House advisor, stated that Biden likely had
(14:11):
cancer for years, possibly during his presidency. Of course, critics
have claimed a cover up, pointing to the administration's portrayal
of Biden as a healthy, active, and robust in four yes,
some say he was coaching. Also, the administration's use of
(14:31):
an auto pen that we've talked about before that was
strange for signing documents has been scrutinized before the cancer
diagnosis or the cancer reveal. The Some suggested it was
used to mask Biden's inability to perform duties. However, Biden's
team still and has refuted claims of a cover upstating
(14:54):
is uh, he was not diagnosed with prostate cancer until
May okay, and that is health records were consistent with
standard medical practices. A former official noted that Biden made
decisions on pardons, executive orders, and legislation with the autopen
used as a clerical tool, not a means to hide incapacity.
(15:19):
So lazy which is is I mean could he do
it and is lazy? Or he couldn't do it. The
administration's repeated assurances about Biden's fitness, along with zero transparency,
remember no cognitive testing during physicals and blocking AIDS from
testifying to Congress about his mental acuity, all that's damaged
(15:42):
any credibility he may have had. Left The timing of
the cancer diagnosis shortly before the release of the original
Sin book. Well, that's also raised suspicions about strategic disclosure.
I'm going to highlight strategic disclosure because I wrote it
and I think that's important. I don't know why I'm
(16:02):
just gonna do it. He stop me? Yeah, anyway, who cares,
because now it's time for sports. In twenty twenty three,
during a minor league baseball game in Toledo, Ohio, a
rogue squirrel darted onto the field in the middle of
(16:24):
the seventh inny. The crowd at fifth third field roared
as the furry intruder invaded, evaded players and grounds crew,
turning a routine mud Hens game into a comedy show.
The squirrel, later dubbed rally Nut by the fans, sprinted
across the outfield, dodged a diving catcher, and even paused
to taunt the pitcher before scampering into the stands with
(16:47):
a stolen peanut. The game was delayed for five minutes,
but the mud Hens rallied to win six', five with
fans CHANNING mvp for the. Squirrel the team's ex account
posted a mock contract offered to Rally, nut which got
thousands of. Likes and that's gonna do it for this
week on The all, right thanks now back to, You.
(17:13):
Craig i'm gonna make that dumber and dummer every week,
