Speaker 1 (00:01):
Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio of the
George Washington Broadcast Center. Jack Armstrong and Shoe Getty arm
Strong and Jetty, and he Armstrong and Jetty. He's a

(00:24):
tough guy. Why doesn't he do that? He knows where
to find me, Come after me, arrest me. Let's just
get it over with, tough guy. Wow, I'm looking at
your big network newscast CBS and NBC. I got on
TV right in front of me. They're both leading with
the Trump Newsom feud, which is they're both loving. I mean,
they both feel like they're getting everything they want out

(00:47):
of it. Newsom's thinking, I get to be the face
of the resistance. That automatically launches me to maybe the
leader of the Democratic Party and in the front runner
for nomination in twenty eight And of course Trump, Trump
doesn't not believe in Gavey. Don't stop believing. It doesn't
hurt Trump to have Gavin Newsom as a foil.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
Let's discuss the entire situation with Kevin Kylie, congressman from
California's third district, who recently tweeted Karen Bass and Gavin
Newsom would rather ice not conduct targeted immigration operations.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
There's a simple solution.

Speaker 2 (01:20):
Stop being a sanctuary city and sanctuary state, cooperate with authorities,
and stop egging on violent agitators.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
Kevin Kylie, welcome. How are you, sir?

Speaker 3 (01:28):
I'm doing great.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
How are you? Yeah. I love the idea of you
become a sanctuary state or sanctuary city or whatever. And
then when the federal government says, well, okay, well somebody's
got to enforce the law, you act like it's crazy
that they do that.

Speaker 3 (01:43):
Uh, yeah, exactly. And not only that, I mean, the
thing about being a sanctuary city sanctuary state is that
that means that they refuse to cooperate with ICE. They
refuse to honor tainer requests. And so when there's someone
who's here I legally, who also has a criminal record,
who has been arrested, who's in police custody, the local
law enforcement has no ability to simply hand that person

(02:06):
off to ICE in a custodial setting. They release them
into the community, and that then forces ICE to conduct
immigration operations define these most dangerous people who are a
threat to public safety in the community. And then we
have the likes of Newsome and that saying oh this
is outrageous that they're doing this when it's their very
sanctuary policies that have left them no other choice.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
Your point being that, so to get this convicted criminal,
you've got to go into the restaurant.

Speaker 3 (02:33):
You've got no choice, right Whereas if you weren't a
sanctuary jurisdiction, as most places in the United States are not,
then you can actually just transfer them within a custodial
environment at the jail and it's much less disruptive, it's
much safer for everyone involved, for the community, for the officers,
for everyone. But it's precisely these radical sanctuary policies that

(02:57):
force these operations to take place in this way. But
by the way, these are the sort of things that
have been going on for decades across Democrat Republican administrations.
Barack Obama deported three million people, and the focus has
always been, as it was in these in LA on
those who have criminal records or who have already been
adjudicated to be deported them there's an existing deportation order,

(03:21):
and so this is pretty standard stuff that's been going on.
But it's the likes of Karen Bass and Newsome that
have used inflammatory rhetoric and have essentially put a target
on the back of our federal officers that have egged
people on towards these acts of violence and acts of disruption.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
It is remarkable how quickly basic law enforcement functions start
to look odd and troubling when you've permitted lawlessness for
as long as you know, the Karen Basses and Gavin
Newsom's have in California. Kevin, let's talk a little bit
about the response. Would you agree that the local cops
in La County were up against more than they could

(03:58):
handle and it was appropriate to bring in the National Guard.
How do you feel about the whole response.

Speaker 3 (04:03):
Yeah, I mean, we saw the scenes over the first
few days before the National Guard was involved. It absolutely
spun out of control. Even the police chiefs in La
said that it ought to have discussed every good person in
La the acts of violence that had been going on.
You know, he saw officers attached with costails, we saw
cars on fire, we saw roadways being blockt and we

(04:23):
saw a threat to the federal officers themselves as well
as to the lawful operations that they were trying to conduct.
And so those are precisely the circumstances under which the
constitution and statutory law that Congress has passed allow the
President to take this sort of action, and the reason
he had to is because Gavin Newsom refused to do so,
and Karen Bass's response was also far from far from adequate.

(04:48):
And so I think that a lot of folks are
who have lived by the way in La every day
with some measure of the lawlessness that we're seeing on
spectacular display now, are thankful that finally there's someone who
seems to about protecting them, protecting their families, and protecting
their communities.

Speaker 1 (05:03):
I noticed that when I think it was laped finally
cleared one oh one the other day so people could drive,
they got applause. It's not like the people in line
didn't appreciate that.

Speaker 3 (05:16):
That's a great point. Yeah, I mean, no one wants
to have to deal with this, but you know they've
every step of the way. It's the policies and the
rhetoric of the likes of Gavin Newsom that have brought
us to this point. You know, they let millions of
people across the border in the Biden years. California was
by far the worst of any state in the country.
Then they adopted these terrible sanctuary policies. Then, by the way,

(05:38):
they funded massively with state money, these NGOs that are
like giving people the coordinates for where ICE is at
any given moment, so that they can then rile people
up and send them there to be disruptive and lucky
for them, we have all these criminals that have been
released from prisoner early in California, so there's a lot
of people who are more than happy to go and
stir up trouble. And then you add on top of

(05:59):
that as fuel to the fire, literal fires, that incendiary,
inflammatory rhetoric from Newsom and Karen Bath, blowing things a
way out of proportion. And it's precisely their actions that
have brought us to this point, which is why it
is so absurd and desperate and offensive for Newsom to
now be saying that somehow it was President Trump and

(06:19):
the arrival of the National Guard that catalyzed the violence.
I mean, what offensive statement to our men and women
serving in the National Guard.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
I'm glad you brought up the Obama stat By the way,
that should be mentioned more often. The Obama administration deported
three million illegals.

Speaker 3 (06:36):
It's amazing, that's exactly right. And the focus has always
been by the way across administrations, and we need to
find those who have criminal records first, who goes the
threat to public safety or in some cases that we're
seeing in ally, there are people who have already been
through the process, They've had their due process, They've been
adjudicated to be in the country illegially, they have an
existing deportation order that they're not complying with the likes

(07:00):
of Newsom and these groups who are stirring up these
these violent riots, what would they have ice do in
those circumstances. Because of their sanctuary policies, they have to
conduct operations and they're doing so in as targeted a
way as possible. And it is the efforts on the
part of these violent agitators to disrupt their efforts that

(07:21):
have created the situation.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
Kevin Kylie of California's third District is on the line. Kevin,
you join us in calling for the arrest of Gavin Newsom.

Speaker 1 (07:30):
Don't answer that question. I was kidding.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
Could there be We're talking more broadly about the reaction
among normal Americans to seeing what's unfolding into LA and
can you think of a worse visual that people than
people assaulting cops, setting fires, and waving the flags of
foreign countries on our streets.

Speaker 1 (07:51):
It's it's obscene.

Speaker 3 (07:53):
Yeah, this is Gavin Newsom's California. And that's what the
whole world is seeing right now, exactly as you say,
burning the American flag, wave the flag of other countries,
assaulting officers, blocking freeways, summoning waimo self driving cars and
then lighting them on fire. This is the image that
people will now have of Gavin Newsom's California. And as

(08:14):
you guys know, and those of us who live in
California know, you know, we don't see riots like this
every day. But people in La, in San Francisco, in Oakland,
they have to live with a constant threat of crime
in their communities because of the lawlessness that these policies
have enabled. You know, in La, they tell you don't
wear your jewelry outside when you go outside the house,

(08:35):
or else you're going to get robbed. I mean, this
is the reality of life here. And so while this
is sort of an exceptional example, I do think it's
giving people a taste of what Californians have to deal
with on a day to day basis and what these policies.
These radical policies of Newsom and Bath and the supermajority
have created.

Speaker 2 (08:54):
Kevin Kylie is a fiscal conservative. He believes in choice
and education. He's a great follow on twys and it's
always a pleasure. Kevin, thanks so much for the time.

Speaker 3 (09:03):
Of course, thanks for having me.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
Oh I promised a little segment that will anger everyone
and leave me with no friends, but this has come
up with fairmount at least online. So somebody tweeted out,
if you support pardons for the January sixth rioters but
have a problem with the protests happening now, you're not
about law and order, You're just a racist. Twitch. Tim Sanderfer,

(09:28):
who leans way more open borders than I do, retweeted
a reply, what if you wanted the book thrown at
January sixth ors, but support what's going on now? What
does that make you? Yes, unless you're on for me,
unless you're on the side of you can't have riots, period,
political riots, any kind of riots, ryan taint good, violent

(09:49):
tint good, beating cops breaking the law, nobody. I want
everybody arrested who does that? That's my side. I don't
care what your cause is. Right call me anything you
want join you in that stance one hundred percent doesn't
seem complicated. Yeah, I mean that that point is fine.

Speaker 2 (10:06):
It's true on it you're not necessarily a racist, but
you're really inconsistent and vice versus. Tim pointed out, is
that really that hard? What's it like to live in
somebody's head who doesn't understand how clearly true that was?

Speaker 1 (10:23):
I don't know. Perhaps some folks listening are of that bent.
Explain please, Yeah, maybe later we'll hit that story again
of Pam Bondi, the Attorney General again saying we got
the name of the guy who has chunkin the big
pieces of cement at cops and seems to be like
a pro agitator sort of dude, and they're gonna they're

(10:44):
gonna find and arrest him, which is cool.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
Yeah, hit him with federal charges so he actually does
some time. Don't trust Gavin Newsom's California justice system. Well,
I'll be on the street next week. Yes, And I'm
just really interested who's he associated with?

Speaker 1 (10:56):
What groups? You know, get into his emails and computer
and associates? Oh no, what is what is that? We've
been wondering that for a long time you know who
is it that delivers the palettes of bricks to these things? Yes, yes,
let's get to the bottom of that. Let's make this
guy a household name. Yes, Michael. I heard they did
a search warrant on his house already, but he wasn't there.
Am I correct about that? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, but they

(11:18):
probably have computers and stuff. Duh. Things that make you
more anxious just came across this list from doctor. If
you are suffer from anxiety, I don't of all the
afflictions you could have on Earth, and I got plenty
of them, I do not have anxiety. Maybe it's because
I'm so. Maybe you should try some. Maybe I'd be
better off with some. Maybe I wake up anyway. Lots

(11:39):
on the way stay here.

Speaker 4 (11:41):
Activists, including Greta Tunberg, the environmental activist, arrived at a
port in Israel after they were detained by Israel's navy
on board and AID ship bound for Godz. The activists group,
called the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, claims that the Israelis quote
unlawfully boarded their chef, which was full of baby formula

(12:01):
and medical supplies, and quote confiscated the goods. Israel calls
the ship and its passenger is a quote selfie yacht,
and they said the mission's sole purpose was publicity. Israel
plans to quickly deport the detained activists back to their
home countries. Israel also claims that the aid that wasn't
quote consumed by the celebrities unquote will be sent to
Gaza through humanitarian channels.

Speaker 1 (12:25):
That's controlling right there by the IDF. How dash you
the selfie yacht? It is obviously such a stunt because
it's such a dent in, you know, in the whole thing.
And this doesn't get reported a lot, But there have
been millions of meals provided there in Gaza, millions, some

(12:45):
of which are stolen by Hamas, most of them aret
millions over the last several weeks. Yeah, they had less
than a single truckload of aid. More than twelve hundred
AID trucks have entered Gaza from Israel within the past
two weeks, et cetera.

Speaker 2 (13:00):
I think the selfie yacht is a good name for it.
I love that they made these people watch October seventh
footage is condition of their release the freedom flotilla.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
Do you think Hamas wants freedom? You morons? This is
all wrong. Yes, you're right. Well, so that was back
when she was more of a child. You can't blame
her really for the you know, the lefty world elevated
her to pope's status when she was a child. You know,

(13:31):
that would get to your ha, that would go to
your head. You would start to think, well, people really
care what I think about stuff? She's unhinged, poor kid.
Well it was that whole because she's a child. That
makes it more true. Thing about climate change. There for
a cup of coffee. Soda fans, I say pop, so
I'll say pop. Pop fans are freaking out over the
limited return of the beloved, beloved Coca Cola flavor. I

(13:55):
didn't know this was so beloved. Diet cherry coke is
making a comeback. Excited about that?

Speaker 2 (14:02):
No, I consume that way back in the day, but
it sounds disgusting to me. Now, you don't drink pop,
Oh you're better than us.

Speaker 1 (14:09):
No, I don't drink pop either, correct, Yes, yes, Katie,
do you drink pop rarely? But everything everything that cherry
flavor tastes like cough syrup to me. That manufactured cherry flavor,
I can't do it different red fruit. But did you know,
this is my son set this can't be true. He
wanted a strawberry milkshake the other day. We were at

(14:32):
In and Out and he says, they have the best
strawberry milkshakes. And I said, you know, I've never had
a strawberry milkshake, which added to the list of things
Jack is never which I couldn't believe. And I know
I've never had a story. It always sounded gross to me.
But you know, I'm starting to think it might be delicious.
This is this. I think about this because my son, Henry,
the thirteen year old, had his first Ham sandwich the

(14:53):
other day and loved it. It's not because I haven't
like allowed him. I've been trying to encourage that for years,
but he just thought Ham sounded awful. For some reason.
He finally tried Ham and he said, Dad, Ham is fantastic.
I said, yes, yes, yes, welcome. So he loves the
Ham sandwich. And I'll bet in the last week, I'm
not exaggerating, I'd be shocked if he hasn't had twenty

(15:15):
Ham sandwiches in the last week, two or three a day. Wow.
But you know, I'm a guy. I had my first
BLT when I was forty five, and I remember coming
on the air the next day and saying, the belt
is amazing. I never had one before. Have you checked out?
I don't know. A sunset or falling in love. Those

(15:35):
are kind of nice too. Puppy is a nice puppy.
Working with you is so great, Jack, because every day
it's like, really wow. I know, well, but I have
such wonders that await me. You know, other people have
to I don't know, travel to Bali to have some
new experience. All I got to do is apple, bacon,
lettuce and tomato sandwich.

Speaker 2 (15:53):
Or try one of the three most popular flavors of
milkshake hunters.

Speaker 1 (15:57):
Right now, I've never had a strawberry milkshake. I should try.
They're really good, that's what everybody says. I don't know.
They always sound a gross to me. And whenever you're
offered one, there's also a chocolate or vanilla But why
the strawberry is a delightful berry, universally enjoyed, But there's
always a chocolate or vanilla option there, and I know
I love that, so I just figured why risk it?

(16:18):
There you go, well, when you go to in and out,
try the Neapolitan shake they mix all three? Is that
one part of the secret menu. I don't like the
secret menu thing. I don't. I don't like that at all.
That for some reason that bothers me. Get over it.

Speaker 2 (16:30):
Try elitism or something. Yeah, that's over the line for me.
That's perverse secret code.

Speaker 1 (16:36):
Yeah, I don't know, it's some sort of never mind.
My mom wants ordered accidentally the fries doggie style. Oh
oh boy, I don't even want to picture that. Oh
my god, I want the fries doggy style. We generally
just hand them to you. You can do whatever you
want with them. And I think we got another new

(17:00):
clip of Gavin Newsom saying get it over with, come
arrest me. So he's baiting the whole arrest me thing.
Trump's playing with it like it's a possibility for him
to arrest the governor of California, which is just they
both love it so much.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
Well, at least we know he won't resist to rest
because he wouldn't dare tussle his hair.

Speaker 1 (17:21):
It's pre tussled. It's tussled in a very specific way.
So we'll get into that more inn hour three of
the Armstrong and Getty showing there's anything I want to tease,
but I remember it so don't matter.

Speaker 2 (17:32):
Yeah, we'll get to it eventually, but right now, it's
time for a gender bending madness update.

Speaker 5 (17:39):
Now, I kept hearing.

Speaker 1 (17:40):
About this thing called the Loco. We're a Brave World GBM.
We call it around here gender bending madness. Can we
start with the positive or the negative? Start with negative

(18:00):
and then we'll move through positive, then go to neutral,
then back to negative again. Everybody ready break?

Speaker 2 (18:05):
Okay, So let's start with the fact that the Trevor Project,
which is an organization dedicated quote to advocacy, education, and
crisis support for LGBTQ plus minus over the Power three
young people, has partnered with a bunch of major corporations
to get gigantic donations. What does the Trevor Project do.
I'm sure they do some stuff that's just fine. It

(18:28):
includes counseling sessions, a crisis hotline, LGBTQ plus minus over
the Power three, training for cultural competency, and Trevor Space,
an online community where adults communicate with miners about sexual
fetishes like bondage and medicalized gender related interventions. According to
its own website, Trevor Space remains active has over four

(18:48):
hundred thousand users from the ages of thirteen through twenty.

Speaker 1 (18:52):
Four hundred thousand. Wass Macy's major donor.

Speaker 2 (18:58):
Just going to scroll through the Zaber Crombie and Fetch Petco,
Big Trevor project sponsor I Buy Direct.

Speaker 1 (19:07):
Yes, they jumped on this couple of years ago when
they thought they had to.

Speaker 2 (19:10):
Right, I guess, but they're still doing it through this year.
Huge donations knock around a sunglasses company, conscious step, a
sock company, if jewelry company, Pura Vida, guest watches and more.

Speaker 1 (19:24):
If this raises in people's consciousness, a lot of those
companies will back out and say we no longer believe
in weighing in on political issues. Yeah, well, maybe that'd
be a good thing. So yeah, yah.

Speaker 2 (19:35):
And when the United States a Department of Health and
Human Services put out a report that joined Great Britain
and the Netherlands and France and virtually all of Europe
in saying that the quality of research on so called
gender affirming care for minors is very, very low. There
is nothing to support that intervening when children are momentarily

(19:57):
confused is a good idea.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
There's no thing to support that. Well, the treasure.

Speaker 2 (20:03):
The Trevor Project condemned that report as dangerous misinformation. Transgender
status is an immutable trait like eye color or height,
and using language that suggests otherwise perpetuates falsehoods and stereotypes,
says the good folks at.

Speaker 1 (20:18):
The Trevor Project.

Speaker 2 (20:19):
All right, speaking of transgenderism, this is our man of
the Year, the gender Bending Madness Man of the Year,
Daviana formerly David Clip thirty. Michael, think you might be
interested in what this bloke has to say.

Speaker 6 (20:35):
I am a forty seven year old biological man. I
am been on hormones for a year, a little over year.
I just had my moves done. I've had one facial surgery.
I am not going to have bottom surgery. I'm going
to do one more face surgery on the bottom of
my chin. I am transitioning to look as much like
a female as I can. That's the way I've wanted
to be my whole life. I understand that I cannot

(20:58):
ever be a biological fear. For those of you people
that cannot define what a female is, realize that you're
part of the problem. Okay, a female is someone who
was born a female with X chromosomes. And can have
babies and so on and so forth. For the idiots
out there that say that some men can have babies
because they're transmit well that's because they're a biological women.

(21:19):
So let's stop all the nonsense and stop all the bullshit.

Speaker 1 (21:23):
Wow, So that's a guy who's on our side a
lot of that stuff, but yet getting facial reconstruction surgery.

Speaker 2 (21:31):
And boob jobs and the rest of it. Yeah, he
wants to look like a woman.

Speaker 1 (21:35):
What an answer to what you knows? You're right, I
guess I think you're tell you brother, I think when
you start operating on your jawline to get a different shape,
you're into mental health territory. But I would agree. But
at least he knows what a woman is. Yeah, yeah, anything.
People are crazy who think that women men can have babies.

(21:55):
Speaking of crazy, Yeah, absolutely. Uh.

Speaker 2 (21:58):
In the formerly same in the hardworking city of Chicago,
madness has taken root. Garrett Tenny of Fox News reporting
thirty Mine, a.

Speaker 5 (22:05):
Drag story time for kids two to five years old,
drew a crowd of more than one hundred supporters today
outside of Chicago Public Library branch on the city's north side.
Drowning out a handful of protesters calling for the event
to be canceled.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
They have an issue because they have men and women's clothing.

Speaker 3 (22:25):
I've known drag queens for a long time.

Speaker 1 (22:27):
They teach kids more about life than some of these
right wingers do.

Speaker 6 (22:32):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (22:33):
They teach kids more about life than some of these
right wingers do.

Speaker 1 (22:38):
Wow. That's a powerful argument. Well that's from a person
who probably because this crowd I'm around some of these people.
They're so obsessed with sex and gender stuff that is
life to them. So they are right. If you define
life as never doing anything else but discussing sex, gender

(23:00):
and sexual activity, then yes, you do teach kids more
about life than right wingers do. We're kind of bigger
on like math and reading and learning a skill and
morality and don't steal and be nice to people. Stuff
like that, and knowing which sex has babies.

Speaker 5 (23:17):
Next clip Beyond Today's drag Story Times Chicago Public Libraries
Pride Month events includes intergenerational queer art making events with
identity affirming stations, and story time with the controversial group
Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence that features queer men wearing heavy
makeup dressed as nuns. Everyone protesters say these kind of

(23:38):
events supported with taxpayer dollars are just wrong.

Speaker 1 (23:44):
Adding them read and drag.

Speaker 5 (23:46):
Is just inappropriate and doesn't because it's bad.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
Moth does not give you the permission to do it.

Speaker 2 (23:52):
Interestingly, all of the protesters featured on the Special Report
report were black folks.

Speaker 1 (23:59):
Wow, on with the men. That is interesting. Yeah, hit
the black community in the Spanning community. They don't dig
this stuff. So where was I know it was happening
in Chicago, but that was that attached to a school
or a library or public library at the Chicago Public Library.
So that's where the federal tax or the tax money
comes in, right, Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 2 (24:16):
You remember that brainiac with his argument about drag Queen's
teach kids more about life.

Speaker 1 (24:23):
See how you like this bit of logic.

Speaker 5 (24:25):
The library is defending its Pride Month events, telling a
local outlet. The library represents the entire city, including the
LGBTQ community and Transactivistsy. Anyone who has a problem with
these kinds of events doesn't have to show up.

Speaker 3 (24:40):
This is about freedom to parent how you want.

Speaker 4 (24:42):
So it's not about the drag that you see at
adult shows.

Speaker 3 (24:46):
This is somebody in a ball gown sitting down reading
stories to cast right.

Speaker 2 (24:50):
So I want there to get too. Is the part
about if you don't like it, don't show up. So
if I don't know the klan, we're indoctrinating kids into
a perverse ideology at the local library.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
Hey, if you don't like it, don't show up. You
don't need to go that far. With an example, how
about if you had people who just believed marriages between
a man and a woman, they're gonna have a big event.
You're gonna allow that at the library. I doubt it.

Speaker 2 (25:10):
The truth of God is revealed in the Bible, right,
we're gonna teach kids that at the library.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
If you don't like it, don't show up. No, you
would go aps you you lying crazed simpletons. Finally, this
which is named the Crazed Simpletons.

Speaker 2 (25:25):
Oh please, we're gonna rehearse tonight for the first time
in my living room.

Speaker 1 (25:31):
This is we mentioned this yesterday. It is so weird
and disappointing. Griff Jenkins here it was venomous because I
think venom is all. The other side really.

Speaker 7 (25:42):
Has an Olympic sized feud sparked by seven times gold
medalist Simone Biles busting US swimmer Riley Gaines for calling
foul on a Minnesota high school women's softball team winning
a state title with a biological male pitcher. You're truly
sick all of this campaigning because you lost a race,
Biles wrote, adding straight up sore loser. You should be

(26:06):
uplifting the trans community, even appearing to body shame Gains
in another post, telling her to bully someone in your
own size, which would ironically be a male.

Speaker 1 (26:17):
Yeah, we read those yesterdays. I can't believe Simone Biles
said that somebody who's competed at the highest level of
athletics to say you're just mad because you lost it
is really surprising to me.

Speaker 2 (26:28):
Yeah, and the idea that, yeah, a male ballplayer dominated
the girls and that's cool with you, Riley or I'm sorry, Simone.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
Hey, Katie, you're an athlete. Did you play softball? I
did not. I played basketball. You think if a dude
was playing on they ever played co ed basketball? Oh?

Speaker 6 (26:53):
Yeah, we had to scrimmage the boys and there were
a lot of injuries there.

Speaker 1 (26:57):
And did you notice any advantages the boys had over
the girls in terms of speed or height strength? A couple, yeah,
all of them yeah, Roland.

Speaker 7 (27:05):
Michael Gaines fired back, resurfacing a twenty seventeen Biles tweet
that read good thing, guys don't compete against girls, or
he'd take all the gold medals, and she questioned Biles'
potential success had she been forced to compete with biological myth.
If Simone's inclusive dream came true, she would have zero

(27:27):
Olympic medals.

Speaker 2 (27:29):
Yeah, Simone Biles literally tweeted of a male gymnast who
is doing amazing things.

Speaker 1 (27:35):
Good, good thing.

Speaker 2 (27:36):
They don't compete against us because they're way bigger and stronger.
And she's this is this is a great because she's
a fairly bright person from what I've seen. This is
a next bookcase of ideology blinding someone to reality.

Speaker 1 (27:53):
Well, and I'm sure she's immersed in people who think
the same way, so she assumes that she's on the
popular side to this, You're not right, And I liked
Riley Gaines blast about Okay, do the rings? Then? Why
is that just a male sport? The rings? Why is
that not the girls? Because it takes incredible upper body strength.

Speaker 2 (28:10):
And the final clip, which is great, but I need
to apologize in advance. There is something shocking. Here something
people will not want to hear, and that's the name
Tim Walls again for some reason, just when you thought
he'd gone away for good.

Speaker 7 (28:26):
The war of words follows a lawsuit filed in Minnesota
on behalf of three female softball players, calling the transgender
pitcher a violation of Title nine. The White House weighing
in saying President Trump is protecting women in sports and
restoring common sense, but Minnesota Governor Tim Walls is defending

(28:47):
politicians who stand with transgender athletes.

Speaker 1 (28:51):
Shame on any of us who throws a chance child
under the bus for.

Speaker 2 (28:54):
Thanking there again, shame I'm for throwing a trans child
under the bus. Now, they can be on the bus
or next to the bus, or in front of the
bus or behind the bus. They just can't be on
a sports field competing against girls because they're dudes.

Speaker 1 (29:12):
Tim, You moron? Oho Is that crowd that cheered like that? Yeah?
I know, I know. The one thing that's become that's
so reassuring though to me now is all of the
polls that have been done show this is an eighty
twenty issue, right, And so I hear that cheering and
think it Wow. I mean granted that's a very blue

(29:33):
pocket of America.

Speaker 2 (29:34):
But you found yourself some real out there radical believers
who cheer that garbage.

Speaker 1 (29:41):
Tell you what, folks, it's gender bending madness. I like
the Dylan mulvaney there at the end. I got a
little segment I want to do about reading and books
and audio books and that sort of thing. I'm in favor.
Got a question for y'all if you're into reading or not.

(30:01):
I know people aren't. I can't imagine. It's one of
life's greatest joys to me. But uh, and in our
three man, a lot of your prominent, really wise democrats,
in my opinion, are hating the images coming out of
Los Angeles. The Mexican flags are not doing us any favors,
among other things. We'll get to that now, ur three

(30:23):
stick with us.

Speaker 4 (30:25):
A zebra that had been lost in Tennessee for the
past week was finally found and flown back to its.

Speaker 1 (30:33):
Owner to the Zebra Bag Zebra in a bag, or
as they called it, Arby's the number three. Oh no oh,
and it must just the name of poor Ed the
Zebra at the Zebra Oh, I love Ed the Zebra.

(30:55):
What a good story that is? Honey, I got us
as Zebra? What are you gonna call him?

Speaker 7 (31:02):
Ed?

Speaker 1 (31:03):
There you go documentary on those people, more about the
Los Angeles riots, particularly the politics around it, since it
was a quieter night last night, coming up an hour three.
The most I'm not a particularly pretentious person, but the
most pretentious part of me would be my reading. I
really like your high falutin classic literature. That's something I'm

(31:25):
really really into. And there was a piece and substack
the other day from some woman who was not into literature,
who was writing in defense of Proust. On my bucket
list is to read the whole in search of Lost Time.
That whole thing. It's three thousand pages, it's a million words.

(31:47):
It's really really long, and many people, including her, say,
I can break my life into two parts before I
read Proust and after I read Proust. I've heard so
many people say that about reading that book. I just
I really want to do it someday, but I don't
see how I could do it. Well, I have a
job in kids, because I mean it would be heck,
it took her three hundred days fitting it into her

(32:09):
life to read the whole thing. But it's it's supposed
to be absolutely amazing. I certainly hope she read it
in the original French. And that's one of the problems, man,
with anything that's in a foreign language is the trade
You're you're relying on the translations, and they all there's
so many of all your classic Tolstoy's. That way you
read any Tolstoy, you can take the first page five
different translations. They're fairly different in the choices of words,

(32:33):
and it's just it's tough. But anyway, I don't want
to get off on that. That's a you know, I
don't live in Ukraine, for crying on. They're not worried
about that in Ukraine today, which is weird because they
actually speak Russian. This they could read the original uh
uh uh oh. The other thing, so audible books, I
really like audible books. I love listening to books. I've
gotten through so many more books since you know, I

(32:55):
got the app and an easy way and maybe you
do the eyebooks, audiobooks or whatever. But audible is it
a ripof? Is it a scam? Do you do audible
because you get they give you a you do a
subscription and it ain't cheat And then they give you
a book a month, and it builds up the credits
like faster than I can use them. And like, I'm
in a situation now where if I don't pick fourteen

(33:18):
books in the next week, I lose them all. So
I'm like rushing to pick books that I don't know
if I'll ever get to. But if you ever decide
I got a bail on this, you lose everything. If
you quit it, you lose everything you've purchased. So I
got like one hundred or so books that if i'd
have actually purchased them, i'd have them in my library

(33:40):
for my kids to look. I don't actually have a library.
I'd have them in a box or into my bed,
but I'd have the books and my kids could read them,
or I could give them a good will or whatever
the hell. Sure, but if I quit Audible, am I
going to do audible it? Whatever it is a month
for the rest of my life to hold onto my
library using my finger quotes.

Speaker 2 (33:56):
Yeah, there are fentanyl dealers listening to this right now.
Think Wow, that's insidious.

Speaker 1 (34:03):
I don't know how to get out of it because
I don't want to lose all those books. And then,
especially if you get ahead, so we're all gonna have
like eighteen books I haven't gotten around to yet. I
can't quit now.

Speaker 2 (34:15):
Yeah, I've got to quit. Thanks for the reminder. I
gotta quit because I'm so far behind it's ridiculous.

Speaker 1 (34:20):
Yeah, that's a pretty good plan, though. I got a buddy.
This is the smart way to do it. He does
all his books through the library and he gets on
the list. I don't know why since it's digital, but
he gets on the list through the library there in
Salt Lake City, and he waits till it becomes available,
and then you have the autobook for a certain number
of weeks, you listen to it, and then it goes
back to the library. It's free. Yeah. Yeah, I like

(34:42):
that idea. Yeah, everybody should be doing that. Excellent consumer tip.
The whole Mexican flag thing. I can't believe activists who
are on the side of the illegals can't get to
the leadership of these protests and say x nay on
the Mexican flags because you're doing more hard than good.
We'll talk about that an hour three. If you miss
