Speaker 1 (00:10):
Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George
Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong, Joe, Katty Armstrong, and Jackie
and now He.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Armstrong live from the studio, Live from Studio Scene C Senior,
a dim room deep within the bowels of the Armstrong
and Getty Communications Compound.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
And hey y'all, today we're under the tutelage of our
general manager, Joseph R. Biden. Great Grandpotus is back. He
has survived back from the break. He's walked through the
valley of the shadow of senility and is stronger than
the vaulting toured November. True at the pressure, Yeah, that's
(01:07):
all the reporting. I was just reading the big front
page New York Times story today that they're resigned to
the fact that he ain't going nowhere and they can't
get him out. So he's our guy. So even though
behind the scenes, I just saw Steve Rattner on MSNBC.
He's a big business guy, tied into all the business
people and a lot of high level politics, and he said,
(01:27):
if you took a vote of Democratic senators, a majority
would say he's got to go. If you could take
a vote behind the scenes. But they're not saying that
privately are public because there's no point because they don't
think he would go. So that's an interesting situation to
be in where a majority of Democratic senators think he
should go. He ain't going, so they're gonna go through
(01:50):
the motions. Yeah, putting aside my delight at their discomfort,
it's it's an excruciating place to be it. I mean,
they have nothing but miserable choices. And the thing I'm
most anxious to talk about this is very brief, and
I wish this had occurred to me because I never
forget the basics of human nature and human behavior when
(02:11):
you're looking at these things that seem fairly complex, and
you got the swirling winds of politics and financial support
and campaign chests and the rest of no, just basic
human nature. And I credit Michael Brendan Doherty of The
National Review for this. Jack sounds a little under the
weather today, Yes, killing and cold chilling to quote what
(02:35):
nineties rap. Anyway, that's as up to date as I got. Folks,
you're looking for actual hipster lingo, you gotta go elsewhere.
I should ask my son, because he is. He's like
an encyclopedia of the history of rap and hip hop. Wow,
how interesting. Anyway, So here it is, and I can't
believe I didn't get this, Jack. If something goes wrong,
(02:56):
what is the number one priority of human beings to
fix it? To? No? No, to figure out who's to blame?
A signing? Blame fix it? What kind of ridiculous notion
(03:16):
is that you just gotta figure out who's gonna wear
the goat's horns? Right? Oh, that's hilarious. And the notorious
mbd it pointed out that look, if Biden insists on
staying in the miserable defeat, that could be both houses
and the White House absolutely could be like in landslides
(03:37):
would be entirely on the senile old man. Whereas if
the powers that be maneuver some sort of exit graceful
or otherwise for him, and they bring out another candidate,
and all most people would be to blame for the
probable disaster in November. So they're thinking, you know what,
let's blaming on the old man. Focus on the midterm
(04:00):
twenty twenty six. That is true, some crazy maneuvering with
Kamala and Gavin Newsom and all this and that, and
then the blame gets spread really wide. Somebody would have
would have to advocate for that. But if Biden stays,
it's on him throughout history. And again, like I've said,
he'll become a verb or a noun that people use
(04:22):
to describe something for the next two centuries. I mean,
he can be talked about the way people talk about Cicero.
I mean, oh yeah, seriously. Well, and not just in politics.
If some shortstop tries to hang on past what he
should be in the major leagues, they'll say he's bidening. Right.
The New York Times headline today on Capitol Hill, Democrats
(04:43):
panic about Biden but do nothing. I heard somebody use
the term on one of the cable news channels. It's
a it's a revolution without a leader is the problem.
And yeah, and for part of part of it being
the reason Judas said. But here's one of the paragraphs
from the article. Longtime party loyalists has said they were
now reduced to hoping for another major public misstep by
(05:07):
mister Biden. That's what they're writing in the New York Times.
That is remarkably candid. I think they're one hundred percent correct. Well,
the Times editorial board has called for him to step
down as the nominee twice in a week, but party
loyalists are now reduced to hoping for another major public
misstep to either persuade reticent members of Congress to speak
(05:28):
out or to convince the president that he should leave.
And he didn't have one. Yesterday. He had to give
a speech at the NATO thing, and he was his
usual Biden, you know, old and whispery and coughing and
all the things. But he wasn't slack jawed calling for
dead people Biden. And that's the worst situation for Democrats
(05:49):
is that he is his very low bar of just
old man, because it's gonna be a lot harder to
push him out, which rings so true to the whole
blame game thing. We were discussed saying, if he has
another public meltdown, another oh my god moment, well then anybody,
everybody will come to the same conclusion at the same time,
and nobody will be blamed for forcing the change of
(06:12):
horses in mid stray. So yeah, they're praying he has
a miserable performance at the what's been called many times
currently the big Boy press conference coming up at the Thursday,
I believe NATO summit that is hilarious that I think
(06:32):
leading up to the debate, the majority of Democrats would
have been like, on pins and needles. I hope he
can pull it off. I think now the majority of
them are on pins and needles. I hope he can't
pull it off. It's hilarious that behind the scenes that
they could come on, do it, Joe, come on, wander
off the stage. Yes, Michael.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
Do you think they will start figuring out ways so
that this happens, like screw with the teleprompter or things
like that.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
I call him in the middle of the night, wake
him up. Sorry, I realize it's two am. It's gonna
be hard to get back to sleep. But I was
just wondering, can I have that parking spot closer to
the Washington Monument? Yeah? Yeah, or just like make weird
hand signals now he's trying to talk, just trying to
distract him, wow. Or maybe one of them crawls behind
(07:25):
him and the other guy pushes him over. That's always
a good trick. Well classic, you know. I mean back
in like the primaries of twenty sixteen, when the Republican
establishment was desperate for Trump to fail, there was kind
of a similar dynamic going on. But my goodness, that
wasn't What are we four months in front of the
election now with a presumptive nominee who's in an incumbent
(07:48):
and everybody knows is Sneil. As the point's been made
many times, Biden trying to blame the elite, the elite
eighty percent of the electorate. Thanks, you're senile. The elite
is late to the party. It's the common folks you
gotta worry about. A top Parkinson's doctor went on NBC
(08:08):
and explained, how look it looks to me like he's
got Parkinson's. So I'll play some of that later. They're
trying to put that to rest. Obviously, that would be
a pretty big scandal. I mean, if they were hiding
that they are. By the way, I hate to jump
to there in case you have to like run off
to work or something. Yeah, they are. Wow, that is
(08:29):
a scandal. That is a scandal. So before we start
to show officially, I'm wearing an Armstrong and Getty T
shirt today Welcome to the Spicy Times. And I only
bring it up to ask how old is this T shirt?
When did we start printing Welcome to the Spicy Times?
T shirts. Do you have any guests? Hanson and I
(08:50):
say it was a couple of years ago. Here was
a couple years ago. Yeah. The number, I mean, the
number of spicy things that have happened since we thought
it was so spicy. We should have a T shirt
that says welcome with the Spicy Times is extraordinary. If
you can nail that down hands and I'd be interested,
(09:11):
because well, you remember when everybody was talking about twenty twenty.
Thank god that'll be over because it was so crazy.
I mean, it doesn't even really stand out anymore. Let's
start to show officially, I think, make it spicy. It is.
I'm Jack Armstrong, He's Joe Getty on this Wednesday. It
is July the tenth year, twenty twenty four. Life not
(09:32):
a bore in twenty four. We're Armstrong and getting. We
approve of this program. Okay, let's leap into action. Then officially,
according to FCC rules regulations, the show starts at mark.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
I'm also officially challenging Crooked Joe to an eighteen hole
golf match.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Right here.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
It will be among the most watched sporting events in history,
maybe bigger than the Ryder Cup or even the Masters,
and if he wins, I will give the charity of
his choice, any charity that he one million dollars.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
Wow, wow, this is not actually happening, and I'm on
the way home from the dentist with a head full
of laughing gas or something, right, right, somebody, anybody.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
It would get ratings that would dwarf the Masters. It'd
be closer to the super Bowl, it'd be more than
the super Bowl. He did also challenge Biden to debate anywhere, anytime,
which the Biden team might take him up on of courses.
They don't feel like they've got to right the ship
(10:36):
because people are starting to fall in line and say,
all right, he don't nominal, so they're they're safe places
he will lose miserably, seems to be. That's an interesting strategy. Yeah, wow,
so yeah, I don't I don't know. I'm getting a headache.
(10:57):
The number of folks who believe he can still win
is very small and diminishing by the day. Oh, it's
almost nobody can win or will win can win. Of
course he can win, sure, yeah, I mean it's not
a twenty point blowout or something. But he ain't gonna
win unless there's a major change, especially given Trump's new
(11:20):
found discipline. So yeah, although last night Trump was rambling
about how fat Chris Christie is in the January sixth hostages,
Oh boy, I mean, like, if I'm as advisor, Chris
Christie is fat, sir, You're right, I mean, you're There's
nobody can argue with you on that. But I'm just
not sure it's an issue we need to bring up.
(11:42):
Trump's founded his greatest love is getting to laugh and
insulting well as an insult comic. I was just gonna
say his particular brand of comedy, he's Don Rickles, He's
an insult comic. I think like getting a better deal
from China is secondary to killing it with his insult
(12:05):
comic routine. We used to say Swarzenegger because we are
around Schwarzenegger a lot. When he was governor, he clearly
cared more about getting a laugh than anything else. Yeah. Yeah,
Policy legislation, please indeed, get me care? I killed out there,
didn't I? How are you? Where's debate? How's mailbag? Look?
Oh it'll do cool. That's on the way. Our text
(12:27):
line is four one five two nine f KFTC. The
New York Times is for Biden dementia scandal. What the
Washington Post was for Watergate? I think, I mean they
just they are in it. I mean they are a
dog on a bone. I may have to give the
old gray lady another look. I was tired of her act.
(12:49):
Here's your super ironic double reverse freedom loving quote of
the day, awesome from her decent in a major gun case,
Sonya Sotomayor, whose security guard shot an armed carjacker yesterday.
In some the Framers did not right the Second Amendment
(13:12):
in order to protect a private right of armed self defense.
You know, I think they did? Is the thing? Well,
that's absolutely did. That's the classic. A lot of your
big time lefties who don't want you to have a gun,
they have a guy who has a gun next to
them everywhere they go, Oh yeah, everywhere they go. They're whole.
Otherwise it would be unsafe. I mean that would be insane,
(13:34):
right yeah. If you met mail Bag, drop us note
mail Bag at Armstrong and getty dot com. You know,
I'm reviewing email and it's it's much better than able
to do. It's it's quite good today. Steve from beautiful Eugene, Oregon,
close to where my son lives. Imagine, oh, on the
evils of ideology going off the Soulzanitsum quote from yesterday.
(13:57):
Imagine an ideology that can get LGBTQ grew groups to
protest on behalf on behalf of Amas and Hezbola. An
ideology that can get pampered American college students to protest
the very source of their pampering. Non ideology that allows
millions of people to flood in the country and violation
of any rules or even common sense. Ideology that allows
foreign espionage and theft to go on right under our noses.
(14:18):
An ideology that protests against the very freedoms that allow
for the ability to protest. We're certainly going down the
rabbit hole into insanity. I agree, Steve. I'll speaking of protest,
how about the story that came out yesterday that Iran
is directly funding and organizing some of these college protests.
We got to talk about that later. That's wild, not
(14:40):
at all surprising, Chris and Northern Idaho Rice. Over the
fourth of July break, I was contemplating your off stated
tenure experiment of Marxist democratic states and conservative states, and
then we see who has better results, and I realized
the experience. The experiment's been run. Compare Idaho, especially northern Idaho.
But let the secret out. Oops, sorry to any blue
(15:02):
state in the Union. My kids go to safe schools
that don't push the gender issues or anything similar. Our
living costs are reasonable. We're freed on and guns in Ammo.
The government is not spending money on ludicrous green deal
solar wind banning, gasoline guards, etc. Our police enforced the law.
We have no homeless junkies on the streets. Downtown Cortlaine
is an amazing, family friendly place to visit. I would
(15:24):
agree completely. We hold parades and festivals with no crazy
Marxist intervention. Firstly, none of the problems you present on
your show exists in my life since leaving California five
years ago. That is really something. Yeah, you're not wrong, Chris.
When we're at our place in South Carolina, they're no junkies.
There are no junkie camps anywhere, none. And you can't
(15:45):
tell me, well, the climate and blah blah dah, housing
costs blah, it's policy, dumb dumbs. Then he got the
tax policy. Jeff Bezos, I saw this yesterday, So he
moved to Florida. Good solid Democrat Jeff Bezos moved to Florida,
saved him one billion dollars in Texas. Whoo oh wow,
(16:07):
let's see. You know, those super rich people don't usually
move to high texts. Oh yeah, don't watch what they said,
Listen to what they say, watch what they do. That's
the man bag uh powlo rights. How can they commit
to Biden when the possibility of possibility of another cognitive
(16:28):
catastrophe is such a real possibility and it could I'd
say it's a certainty, and it could happen when it's
too late to do anything about it. They have to
know that they're gonna have to break out all the
carrots and sticks and arm twisters until he gracefully bows out.
No polo. And it's because of what I said earlier.
Everybody in the Democratic Party is just saying, just don't
(16:49):
let it be my fault. I'm keeping my head down.
I want to be here in two or four years
for the rebuild. You know, got a couple of emails
I'd love to squeeze in a little bit later, but
we're pressed for time. I would love to talk to
or talk about that doctor who's certain Biden has a
(17:10):
fairly advanced state of Parkinson's and the speculation around that
coming up, and a different doctor who says he got
a facelift and why that matters? Wow, Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 5 (17:22):
He'll have a press conference next week at NATO press conference,
a big boy press conference. When he gives his press conference,
his big boy press conference.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
The president will hold a press conference.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
I guess, a big boy press conference to the big
boy press conference.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Who decided that the press conference on Thursday with NATO
is a should be called a big boy press conference?
Where did that come from in the last twenty four hours? Isn't?
How does that land on you? That that phrase? How
does that strike you that he's been doing stuff that's
inconsequential prior? I guess Yeah, it sounds demeaning to me.
(18:02):
It's like he's wearing his big boy pants. Good job money.
One is reminded of doctor Jill with her incredibly insulting Joe.
You did such a great job. You answered every question.
Speaker 5 (18:15):
You at it.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
You know the bignn he's ready for a big boy
press conference? Is he five? Well, when you got multiple
people saying the same thing all of a sudden, the
phrase I'd never heard in my life. That's not an accident, obviously,
So somebody came up with that idea and thought it
was important to put out there to the media. So
(18:40):
it sounds to me like they're wanting to build the
anticipation in the viewership of this press conference. Now, is
that what the New York Times was hinting at Behind
the scenes, people are hoping he'll fail on Thursday? Are
they trying to build it up? Hey, everybody watch this
because he is gonna he is gonna lose it so
they can push him out or I don't even know.
(19:01):
If I were one of Joe Biden's senior advisors, I
would be barking at KJP and John Kirby and saying, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Hey, No,
big boy press conference is awful. It makes it sound
like he's five years old. We're gonna call it a
full open press conference or a full press conference, all right,
you call it unrestrained, you call it whatever. Anybody says,
big boy anything anymore your fire. Well, there's no way
(19:25):
that Kirby and KJP came up with that phrase without
his big advisors wanting them to.
Speaker 6 (19:30):
Right.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
It had to come from them. So, yeah, that's that's weird.
What a weird framing of things. Yeah, and on Friday,
he's gonna walk all the way across the lawn. We're
gonna park the helicopter at the far end, and he's
gonna walk the entire way. Okay, get lunch with his
own fork. Yeah, wow, weird times. The hotly anticipated White
(19:56):
House press briefing took place yesterday in the middle of
the day on what part of the country you live in?
And kg JP had Obviously I missed the very beginning
of it. You remember Monday's press briefing got very spicy
and volatile and people yelling, and and Ed O'Keefe, that
(20:18):
brawny he man saying we're a little mifted. But it
did get spicy. That was Trump esque in that shot. Well, no,
I don't look I like all sorts of people. I
don't believe everybody needs to be a lumberjack. But I
just thought, as an expression of the righteous indignation of
(20:39):
the free press at being lied to for years, we're
a little mift. Was private. They were a little mift. Yeah,
it was very mister Rogers, and we probably need more
of that these days. But anyway, So having said that,
and I missed the very beginning of the press briefing,
but obviously some word came down from that. Hey, everybody,
(21:02):
let's stay calm, because there was definitely the feel of
this just went to poop yesterday. Everybody's going to be very,
very civil at all times, and if anybody even gets
a little not civil, we're gonna calm back down. So anyway,
having said that, KJP was being peppered with absolutely legitimate,
(21:24):
legitimate questions about the president's neurological function and the debate
and several other incidents which you will hear at least
a couple of And and I probably don't need to
point this out, but any cop, any interrogator of any
sort will tell you when people are being dishonest, they
use lots of extra words and introduce like tangential things
(21:49):
mid sentence, just anything to cloud the waters. And this
was just an unbelievable, you know, show of Thatlet's see,
let's start with Peter Doocey was on fire. Why don't
we Why don't we start with a reporter I can't
remember who asked the about the whole where's Jackie incident?
(22:11):
That's forty two. Wow, that came back up again. It did. Yeah,
it did this because of John Stewart and The Daily
Show the night before playing that and making a big
deal out of it. I'll bet it is. It could
have been. Yeah, fire away, Michael, and you'll remember this.
Speaker 7 (22:25):
This was an event where the President called out Congressman
and Jackie Lauriski looked for her in the room, even
though she had recently died. You told multiple reporters at
the time, and this was ado multiple different sty right, Yeah,
it was because she was top of mine, know the president.
I mean, would you on that example, would you offer
(22:46):
a different expliting.
Speaker 5 (22:47):
Amanda, because honestly, I spoke to the President right before
coming out that day, and that is what the President
told me. It's not something that came from me. That
is something that came from the president. So he was saying, even.
Speaker 7 (22:59):
As he question for her in the moment, it wasn't
as she was top of mine.
Speaker 5 (23:04):
Okay, that is coming as you just said in your question,
I speak for the president, I speak on behalf of him.
That was coming from him, and I was delivering directly
from the President what he was thinking at.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
The time, is anybody gonna bring up the to me
elephant in the room that why wasn't this conversation the
next day? If I was KJP, I'd be tempted to
ask the press, Hey, let me ask you something about
your job for once this happened two years ago, Why
did you just let it slide? Unless you are Peter
Doocey over here from Fox, none of you all cares
(23:38):
stole the words from my mouth. Give us forty one, Michael.
Speaker 5 (23:46):
It has been an unprecedented time. I think you guys
could admit that, right. It is an unprecedented time. And
so we are meeting the moment, a new moment that
has never really existed before. And so we want to
make sure that we get you all information that we have,
and when we don't have it, we do try our
best to provide that information. And so that is something
(24:08):
that I'm going to continue to do. And I've always
said it is an honor and the privilege to be
standing in front of you every day, exercising in the
freedom of the press.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
Yeah, I know a snowjab when I see it. Number One,
she's borrowed Kamalist speechwriters clearly. Number two, why are you
speaking these words? To us. Why are you saying these
things other than to kill sometime right abroad? What a
hilarious Let's all recognize we're in a new moment. This
is a different Yeah, the president's brain doesn't work. I mean,
(24:38):
you're acting like some weird occurrence has happened that just
fell upon you and there's nothing you can do about it,
and we all need to adjust, which is a weird
way to look at it. All right, one more pre
Peter Doucy question forty three, and then we'll get onto
Pete who was on fire yesterday.
Speaker 7 (24:58):
Very final question on the annual Sure Sure letter from
doctor O'Connor. He said that the president continues to be
fit for duty and fully executes all of his responsibilities
without any assumptions or accommodations. Just because it's been a
couple of months. Do you know if that statement is
still accurate. It's still accurate, So no assumption, is no accommodation,
(25:19):
exsumptions will accommodation.
Speaker 5 (25:20):
Here, thank you?
Speaker 1 (25:23):
What are extensions? I have no idea. KJP also was
schooled or decided herself that she'll be breezily, cheerful and positive.
I'd be positive and tearful I feel like that question
was laying the groundwork for a gotcha or a like
really hit a home run with some information, because the
(25:44):
idea that he hasn't there's been no adjustments in the
last couple of months. That is against all the reporting
that behind the scenes in the last couple of months
he's had a real drop right. And it was interesting.
I thought she sounded miserable at the end of that answer,
the way her voice dropped and she said no, none, Yeah,
(26:07):
they set her up for introducing new information to her
that's going to be devastating. I think I think that's
a good call. I think you're absolutely right. Ah, let's see.
Oh one more. This is about the cold she was
asked about. You know, he said he had a cold
at the press conference that come on now and forty five.
Speaker 5 (26:28):
Look, you know, one of the reasons that we shared
that he had a cold is because during the debate,
in real time, everybody heard his hoarse voice and folks
asked and we were able to come We were able
to confirm right away that he had a cold and
that he was also tested negative for COVID, so we
were able to share that in real time.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
So just also want to share that.
Speaker 5 (26:50):
Look, he pushed forward. Right, many of us have colds,
and we still push forward. He's the president of the
United States. You understand how important it is to continue
to get up every morning, regardless of how you feel, right,
to get things done.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
Wow, what turned it to he should get a cookie
or a metal or something. We all have colds, and
he pushed through it. He did his and he used
this big boy Kleenex. If he did have a cold,
and I don't think he did, he should have mentioned
it during the debate. Sorry, sorry for my voice. I've
got a bit of a cold. Just want to let
(27:26):
you know that you know, or something like that, or
sorry for my voice. I've got a rather advanced case
of Parkinson's. Right, I barely know my name, and I
think I just wet myself. Many of us have had colds,
and we press on. The president pressed on. We're able
to tell you in real time. Oh please, you don't
(27:48):
be as a BS sir, and don't heck, you don't
be us an eight year old. She is so clearly
just floundering. Well, I've got a cold, and yesterday somebody
asked me about abortion, and I started talking about immigration
because we all do that, and we have a cold
clip forty Peter Doucey if you need him.
Speaker 6 (28:05):
Officials are pointing to policies in place to ensure national
security in times of emergency, even though President Biden told
a group of governors that moving forward, he plans to
get more sleep by working less after eight pm.
Speaker 8 (28:18):
Say that the Pentagon at some point picks up an
incoming new it's eleven pm.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
Who do you call the first lady.
Speaker 5 (28:25):
He has a team that lets him know of any
of any news that is pertinent and important to the
American people.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
That's not an answer. No, No, The whole three am call,
which was a huge advertising point if you remember in
twenty sixteen between Hillary and Trump that was he ready
for the three am vocal? Okay, well let's continue that theme.
Then is Joe Biden, I mean his own people said
he can't work past eight or something like that. I
(28:55):
mean that's crazy. Yeah, yeah, So one of the and
this unfolded over too long a period to play the audio,
but there were a number of questions about the president's physicians,
reports on his condition, on the fact that that famous
uh essentially Parkinson's expert had visited the White House eight
(29:18):
times in eight months. What did it mean had the
president been examined that sort of thing? And KJP categorically
denied that the president had been examined for any neurological problems.
That'd be crazy. Well, oh yeah, if this was my
dad or my just anybody I loved that would that Well,
(29:38):
it's crazy. You're absolutely right. And here's Doucey following up
on that in forty four. And I think the rather
you know, the absence of an answer is your answer.
Speaker 8 (29:50):
So I guess the question is just this is not
you're saying, this is not a situation where you would
rather just not know. If there is a is If
he does get a bad result, it is all over.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
He has some right away. He can't run for reelection.
Speaker 5 (30:06):
First of all, it's a hypothetical, right That's that you're
giving me a hypothetical. But I will also say, just
to clear this up, the White House Medical Unit, his doctor,
they don't believe that he needs anything more than what
can we have been able to provide a full, full, detailed,
(30:28):
very comprehensive physical that he had four months ago. That
is their decision to make. It's not yours, it's not
knowing it's the White White House Medical Unit.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
Yeah, so, Peter Doocey driving at Look, you haven't had
an official examination with an official result because you don't
want to know. Well, case, you already know because I
was a loved one. Getting back to that scenario, like,
if it's my dad and he's acting like Joe Biden,
thank god, he's not even close and he's eighty seven
or whatever it is. Dad, you're listening right now, I
don't know your age. If it were my dad and
(31:02):
the doctor said, we gave him a normal physical like
we give everyone, and he's fine, Well, no, you're fired.
I'm getting a different doctor. What are you talking about.
He obviously needs somebody to look specifically at his brain. Yeah. Absolutely.
And the truth is, and we discussed this last time
he had his examine and put out the results. The
presidents can put out or not put out whatever they want.
(31:22):
This is not some sort of you know, it's not
in the constitution. So if the president wants to put
out a very cursory stating from his doctor looks good
to me, that's that's fine. He can do that. And
Biden quite notably, has not released anything about his neurological function. No,
and they didn't ask me because her non answer and
that rambling crap is just please, that's all I need
(31:45):
to hear. They haven't looked into it, because then they
can honestly deny that you know, any doctor said anything
negative exactly. It's when did you know it? What did
you know? And when did you know it? One of
those things. There have been unofficial exams with unofficial results,
and everybody knows what's going on behind the scenes. Just
nothing on paper. You need to take a break. Wow,
this is a scandal. We got Katie's headlines and a
(32:06):
bunch of other stuff on the way. People often say
summer colds are the worst. Are summer colds actually any
different than other colds? Or you just hate having a
cold more in the summer than you do the rest
of the year, which I've always assumed is the case.
Probably that one. Yeah, it doesn't seem like it makes
sense that they'd be any different. And what's your current
(32:27):
belief on zinc and that sort of stuff? Us reading
on that, and the latest data was not as great
as I remember it being about zinc in its effectiveness.
I haven't seen the latest data. I just I know it.
They always said it limited the duration and severity if
you get on it soon enough. But yeah, the latest
data says the severity doesn't change tall and might make
(32:48):
it shorter by a day or two, which ain't nothing.
Speaker 9 (32:51):
But the heat isn't The heat isn't helping.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
Right, Yeah, yeah, Adred one hundred and five degrees where
I live. All right, so let's launch into the lead
story with Katie Green, who's reporting? What Katie? Please? All right?
ABC News.
Speaker 9 (33:09):
Biden launches NATO's summit by pledging new air defense support
for Ukraine.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
Yeah, I'm all for that, but man, his quadrupling down
on We're in it with Ukraine to the end and
Russia will never succeed and all that sort of stuff.
Does he mean that? He shared him act like he
means it. And one of the most troubling stories of
the day from Wall Street Journal explaining how Russia's had
(33:36):
a chance to examine our weapons systems at length over
years now and has figured out how to counter most
of them. More on that to come later in the show.
Speaker 9 (33:45):
From NBC News quote, There's no way out. Democrats feel
powerless as elites fall in line behind Biden.
Speaker 1 (33:54):
They are powerless, I mean literally powerless. They do not
have the power to remove him if he doesn't want
to go. And I've just conceded to that, I guess.
Speaker 9 (34:04):
From the Washington Times hiding in playing sight, Biden's mental
and physical decline has been on display from the start.
Speaker 1 (34:13):
Will this be right now? Will this be reckoned with
at some point? No, if we didn't reckon with the
school closures during COVID place right from.
Speaker 9 (34:23):
CBS News, san Diego has more fleas than any other
city in the United States.
Speaker 1 (34:29):
Well, you got pandas and fleas. Now, congratulations on unfortunate combo.
I hope the pandas don't get your fleas.
Speaker 9 (34:36):
From the New York Post, artificial intelligence scientists developing tools
to decode what your dog's barks mean.
Speaker 1 (34:43):
There you go, that's what we need. And so time
was classic. I did you know? I got a rough
idea of what they mean. But hu, I want to
go for a walk. I think somebody's here. I think
I heard something. What And finally the Babylon.
Speaker 9 (34:57):
B White House visitor law reveal.
Speaker 1 (35:01):
Grim Reaper visited over eight times? Oh wow, hey, I
was a little soon. Huh what I don't know if
it's a lot soon, maybe a little soon. Like you said,
if he was my dad, I would not be making
plans for next year's golf trip. No heck. Now, that's
that's the way you put it that way, that's that's
(35:22):
something m armstrong and getty
Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George
Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong, Joe, Katty Armstrong, and Jackie
and now He.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Armstrong live from the studio, Live from Studio Scene C Senior,
a dim room deep within the bowels of the Armstrong
and Getty Communications Compound.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
And hey y'all, today we're under the tutelage of our
general manager, Joseph R. Biden. Great Grandpotus is back. He
has survived back from the break. He's walked through the
valley of the shadow of senility and is stronger than
the vaulting toured November. True at the pressure, Yeah, that's
(01:07):
all the reporting. I was just reading the big front
page New York Times story today that they're resigned to
the fact that he ain't going nowhere and they can't
get him out. So he's our guy. So even though
behind the scenes, I just saw Steve Rattner on MSNBC.
He's a big business guy, tied into all the business
people and a lot of high level politics, and he said,
(01:27):
if you took a vote of Democratic senators, a majority
would say he's got to go. If you could take
a vote behind the scenes. But they're not saying that
privately are public because there's no point because they don't
think he would go. So that's an interesting situation to
be in where a majority of Democratic senators think he
should go. He ain't going, so they're gonna go through
(01:50):
the motions. Yeah, putting aside my delight at their discomfort,
it's it's an excruciating place to be it. I mean,
they have nothing but miserable choices. And the thing I'm
most anxious to talk about this is very brief, and
I wish this had occurred to me because I never
forget the basics of human nature and human behavior when
(02:11):
you're looking at these things that seem fairly complex, and
you got the swirling winds of politics and financial support
and campaign chests and the rest of no, just basic
human nature. And I credit Michael Brendan Doherty of The
National Review for this. Jack sounds a little under the
weather today, Yes, killing and cold chilling to quote what
(02:35):
nineties rap. Anyway, that's as up to date as I got. Folks,
you're looking for actual hipster lingo, you gotta go elsewhere.
I should ask my son, because he is. He's like
an encyclopedia of the history of rap and hip hop. Wow,
how interesting. Anyway, So here it is, and I can't
believe I didn't get this, Jack. If something goes wrong,
(02:56):
what is the number one priority of human beings to
fix it? To? No? No, to figure out who's to blame?
A signing? Blame fix it? What kind of ridiculous notion
(03:16):
is that you just gotta figure out who's gonna wear
the goat's horns? Right? Oh, that's hilarious. And the notorious
mbd it pointed out that look, if Biden insists on
staying in the miserable defeat, that could be both houses
and the White House absolutely could be like in landslides
(03:37):
would be entirely on the senile old man. Whereas if
the powers that be maneuver some sort of exit graceful
or otherwise for him, and they bring out another candidate,
and all most people would be to blame for the
probable disaster in November. So they're thinking, you know what,
let's blaming on the old man. Focus on the midterm
(04:00):
twenty twenty six. That is true, some crazy maneuvering with
Kamala and Gavin Newsom and all this and that, and
then the blame gets spread really wide. Somebody would have
would have to advocate for that. But if Biden stays,
it's on him throughout history. And again, like I've said,
he'll become a verb or a noun that people use
(04:22):
to describe something for the next two centuries. I mean,
he can be talked about the way people talk about Cicero.
I mean, oh yeah, seriously. Well, and not just in politics.
If some shortstop tries to hang on past what he
should be in the major leagues, they'll say he's bidening. Right.
The New York Times headline today on Capitol Hill, Democrats
(04:43):
panic about Biden but do nothing. I heard somebody use
the term on one of the cable news channels. It's
a it's a revolution without a leader is the problem.
And yeah, and for part of part of it being
the reason Judas said. But here's one of the paragraphs
from the article. Longtime party loyalists has said they were
now reduced to hoping for another major public misstep by
(05:07):
mister Biden. That's what they're writing in the New York Times.
That is remarkably candid. I think they're one hundred percent correct. Well,
the Times editorial board has called for him to step
down as the nominee twice in a week, but party
loyalists are now reduced to hoping for another major public
misstep to either persuade reticent members of Congress to speak
(05:28):
out or to convince the president that he should leave.
And he didn't have one. Yesterday. He had to give
a speech at the NATO thing, and he was his
usual Biden, you know, old and whispery and coughing and
all the things. But he wasn't slack jawed calling for
dead people Biden. And that's the worst situation for Democrats
(05:49):
is that he is his very low bar of just
old man, because it's gonna be a lot harder to
push him out, which rings so true to the whole
blame game thing. We were discussed saying, if he has
another public meltdown, another oh my god moment, well then anybody,
everybody will come to the same conclusion at the same time,
and nobody will be blamed for forcing the change of
(06:12):
horses in mid stray. So yeah, they're praying he has
a miserable performance at the what's been called many times
currently the big Boy press conference coming up at the Thursday,
I believe NATO summit that is hilarious that I think
(06:32):
leading up to the debate, the majority of Democrats would
have been like, on pins and needles. I hope he
can pull it off. I think now the majority of
them are on pins and needles. I hope he can't
pull it off. It's hilarious that behind the scenes that
they could come on, do it, Joe, come on, wander
off the stage. Yes, Michael.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
Do you think they will start figuring out ways so
that this happens, like screw with the teleprompter or things
like that.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
I call him in the middle of the night, wake
him up. Sorry, I realize it's two am. It's gonna
be hard to get back to sleep. But I was
just wondering, can I have that parking spot closer to
the Washington Monument? Yeah? Yeah, or just like make weird
hand signals now he's trying to talk, just trying to
distract him, wow. Or maybe one of them crawls behind
(07:25):
him and the other guy pushes him over. That's always
a good trick. Well classic, you know. I mean back
in like the primaries of twenty sixteen, when the Republican
establishment was desperate for Trump to fail, there was kind
of a similar dynamic going on. But my goodness, that
wasn't What are we four months in front of the
election now with a presumptive nominee who's in an incumbent
(07:48):
and everybody knows is Sneil. As the point's been made
many times, Biden trying to blame the elite, the elite
eighty percent of the electorate. Thanks, you're senile. The elite
is late to the party. It's the common folks you
gotta worry about. A top Parkinson's doctor went on NBC
(08:08):
and explained, how look it looks to me like he's
got Parkinson's. So I'll play some of that later. They're
trying to put that to rest. Obviously, that would be
a pretty big scandal. I mean, if they were hiding
that they are. By the way, I hate to jump
to there in case you have to like run off
to work or something. Yeah, they are. Wow, that is
(08:29):
a scandal. That is a scandal. So before we start
to show officially, I'm wearing an Armstrong and Getty T
shirt today Welcome to the Spicy Times. And I only
bring it up to ask how old is this T shirt?
When did we start printing Welcome to the Spicy Times?
T shirts. Do you have any guests? Hanson and I
(08:50):
say it was a couple of years ago. Here was
a couple years ago. Yeah. The number, I mean, the
number of spicy things that have happened since we thought
it was so spicy. We should have a T shirt
that says welcome with the Spicy Times is extraordinary. If
you can nail that down hands and I'd be interested,
(09:11):
because well, you remember when everybody was talking about twenty twenty.
Thank god that'll be over because it was so crazy.
I mean, it doesn't even really stand out anymore. Let's
start to show officially, I think, make it spicy. It is.
I'm Jack Armstrong, He's Joe Getty on this Wednesday. It
is July the tenth year, twenty twenty four. Life not
(09:32):
a bore in twenty four. We're Armstrong and getting. We
approve of this program. Okay, let's leap into action. Then officially,
according to FCC rules regulations, the show starts at mark.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
I'm also officially challenging Crooked Joe to an eighteen hole
golf match.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Right here.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
It will be among the most watched sporting events in history,
maybe bigger than the Ryder Cup or even the Masters,
and if he wins, I will give the charity of
his choice, any charity that he one million dollars.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
Wow, wow, this is not actually happening, and I'm on
the way home from the dentist with a head full
of laughing gas or something, right, right, somebody, anybody.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
It would get ratings that would dwarf the Masters. It'd
be closer to the super Bowl, it'd be more than
the super Bowl. He did also challenge Biden to debate anywhere, anytime,
which the Biden team might take him up on of courses.
They don't feel like they've got to right the ship
(10:36):
because people are starting to fall in line and say,
all right, he don't nominal, so they're they're safe places
he will lose miserably, seems to be. That's an interesting strategy. Yeah, wow,
so yeah, I don't I don't know. I'm getting a headache.
(10:57):
The number of folks who believe he can still win
is very small and diminishing by the day. Oh, it's
almost nobody can win or will win can win. Of
course he can win, sure, yeah, I mean it's not
a twenty point blowout or something. But he ain't gonna
win unless there's a major change, especially given Trump's new
(11:20):
found discipline. So yeah, although last night Trump was rambling
about how fat Chris Christie is in the January sixth hostages,
Oh boy, I mean, like, if I'm as advisor, Chris
Christie is fat, sir, You're right, I mean, you're There's
nobody can argue with you on that. But I'm just
not sure it's an issue we need to bring up.
(11:42):
Trump's founded his greatest love is getting to laugh and
insulting well as an insult comic. I was just gonna
say his particular brand of comedy, he's Don Rickles, He's
an insult comic. I think like getting a better deal
from China is secondary to killing it with his insult
(12:05):
comic routine. We used to say Swarzenegger because we are
around Schwarzenegger a lot. When he was governor, he clearly
cared more about getting a laugh than anything else. Yeah. Yeah,
Policy legislation, please indeed, get me care? I killed out there,
didn't I? How are you? Where's debate? How's mailbag? Look?
Oh it'll do cool. That's on the way. Our text
(12:27):
line is four one five two nine f KFTC. The
New York Times is for Biden dementia scandal. What the
Washington Post was for Watergate? I think, I mean they
just they are in it. I mean they are a
dog on a bone. I may have to give the
old gray lady another look. I was tired of her act.
(12:49):
Here's your super ironic double reverse freedom loving quote of
the day, awesome from her decent in a major gun case,
Sonya Sotomayor, whose security guard shot an armed carjacker yesterday.
In some the Framers did not right the Second Amendment
(13:12):
in order to protect a private right of armed self defense.
You know, I think they did? Is the thing? Well,
that's absolutely did. That's the classic. A lot of your
big time lefties who don't want you to have a gun,
they have a guy who has a gun next to
them everywhere they go, Oh yeah, everywhere they go. They're whole.
Otherwise it would be unsafe. I mean that would be insane,
(13:34):
right yeah. If you met mail Bag, drop us note
mail Bag at Armstrong and getty dot com. You know,
I'm reviewing email and it's it's much better than able
to do. It's it's quite good today. Steve from beautiful Eugene, Oregon,
close to where my son lives. Imagine, oh, on the
evils of ideology going off the Soulzanitsum quote from yesterday.
(13:57):
Imagine an ideology that can get LGBTQ grew groups to
protest on behalf on behalf of Amas and Hezbola. An
ideology that can get pampered American college students to protest
the very source of their pampering. Non ideology that allows
millions of people to flood in the country and violation
of any rules or even common sense. Ideology that allows
foreign espionage and theft to go on right under our noses.
(14:18):
An ideology that protests against the very freedoms that allow
for the ability to protest. We're certainly going down the
rabbit hole into insanity. I agree, Steve. I'll speaking of protest,
how about the story that came out yesterday that Iran
is directly funding and organizing some of these college protests.
We got to talk about that later. That's wild, not
(14:40):
at all surprising, Chris and Northern Idaho Rice. Over the
fourth of July break, I was contemplating your off stated
tenure experiment of Marxist democratic states and conservative states, and
then we see who has better results, and I realized
the experience. The experiment's been run. Compare Idaho, especially northern Idaho.
But let the secret out. Oops, sorry to any blue
(15:02):
state in the Union. My kids go to safe schools
that don't push the gender issues or anything similar. Our
living costs are reasonable. We're freed on and guns in Ammo.
The government is not spending money on ludicrous green deal
solar wind banning, gasoline guards, etc. Our police enforced the law.
We have no homeless junkies on the streets. Downtown Cortlaine
is an amazing, family friendly place to visit. I would
(15:24):
agree completely. We hold parades and festivals with no crazy
Marxist intervention. Firstly, none of the problems you present on
your show exists in my life since leaving California five
years ago. That is really something. Yeah, you're not wrong, Chris.
When we're at our place in South Carolina, they're no junkies.
There are no junkie camps anywhere, none. And you can't
(15:45):
tell me, well, the climate and blah blah dah, housing
costs blah, it's policy, dumb dumbs. Then he got the
tax policy. Jeff Bezos, I saw this yesterday, So he
moved to Florida. Good solid Democrat Jeff Bezos moved to Florida,
saved him one billion dollars in Texas. Whoo oh wow,
(16:07):
let's see. You know, those super rich people don't usually
move to high texts. Oh yeah, don't watch what they said,
Listen to what they say, watch what they do. That's
the man bag uh powlo rights. How can they commit
to Biden when the possibility of possibility of another cognitive
(16:28):
catastrophe is such a real possibility and it could I'd
say it's a certainty, and it could happen when it's
too late to do anything about it. They have to
know that they're gonna have to break out all the
carrots and sticks and arm twisters until he gracefully bows out.
No polo. And it's because of what I said earlier.
Everybody in the Democratic Party is just saying, just don't
(16:49):
let it be my fault. I'm keeping my head down.
I want to be here in two or four years
for the rebuild. You know, got a couple of emails
I'd love to squeeze in a little bit later, but
we're pressed for time. I would love to talk to
or talk about that doctor who's certain Biden has a
(17:10):
fairly advanced state of Parkinson's and the speculation around that
coming up, and a different doctor who says he got
a facelift and why that matters? Wow, Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 5 (17:22):
He'll have a press conference next week at NATO press conference,
a big boy press conference. When he gives his press conference,
his big boy press conference.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
The president will hold a press conference.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
I guess, a big boy press conference to the big
boy press conference.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Who decided that the press conference on Thursday with NATO
is a should be called a big boy press conference?
Where did that come from in the last twenty four hours? Isn't?
How does that land on you? That that phrase? How
does that strike you that he's been doing stuff that's
inconsequential prior? I guess Yeah, it sounds demeaning to me.
(18:02):
It's like he's wearing his big boy pants. Good job money.
One is reminded of doctor Jill with her incredibly insulting Joe.
You did such a great job. You answered every question.
Speaker 5 (18:15):
You at it.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
You know the bignn he's ready for a big boy
press conference? Is he five? Well, when you got multiple
people saying the same thing all of a sudden, the
phrase I'd never heard in my life. That's not an accident, obviously,
So somebody came up with that idea and thought it
was important to put out there to the media. So
(18:40):
it sounds to me like they're wanting to build the
anticipation in the viewership of this press conference. Now, is
that what the New York Times was hinting at Behind
the scenes, people are hoping he'll fail on Thursday? Are
they trying to build it up? Hey, everybody watch this
because he is gonna he is gonna lose it so
they can push him out or I don't even know.
(19:01):
If I were one of Joe Biden's senior advisors, I
would be barking at KJP and John Kirby and saying, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Hey, No,
big boy press conference is awful. It makes it sound
like he's five years old. We're gonna call it a
full open press conference or a full press conference, all right,
you call it unrestrained, you call it whatever. Anybody says,
big boy anything anymore your fire. Well, there's no way
(19:25):
that Kirby and KJP came up with that phrase without
his big advisors wanting them to.
Speaker 6 (19:30):
Right.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
It had to come from them. So, yeah, that's that's weird.
What a weird framing of things. Yeah, and on Friday,
he's gonna walk all the way across the lawn. We're
gonna park the helicopter at the far end, and he's
gonna walk the entire way. Okay, get lunch with his
own fork. Yeah, wow, weird times. The hotly anticipated White
(19:56):
House press briefing took place yesterday in the middle of
the day on what part of the country you live in?
And kg JP had Obviously I missed the very beginning
of it. You remember Monday's press briefing got very spicy
and volatile and people yelling, and and Ed O'Keefe, that
(20:18):
brawny he man saying we're a little mifted. But it
did get spicy. That was Trump esque in that shot. Well, no,
I don't look I like all sorts of people. I
don't believe everybody needs to be a lumberjack. But I
just thought, as an expression of the righteous indignation of
(20:39):
the free press at being lied to for years, we're
a little mift. Was private. They were a little mift. Yeah,
it was very mister Rogers, and we probably need more
of that these days. But anyway, So having said that,
and I missed the very beginning of the press briefing,
but obviously some word came down from that. Hey, everybody,
(21:02):
let's stay calm, because there was definitely the feel of
this just went to poop yesterday. Everybody's going to be very,
very civil at all times, and if anybody even gets
a little not civil, we're gonna calm back down. So anyway,
having said that, KJP was being peppered with absolutely legitimate,
(21:24):
legitimate questions about the president's neurological function and the debate
and several other incidents which you will hear at least
a couple of And and I probably don't need to
point this out, but any cop, any interrogator of any
sort will tell you when people are being dishonest, they
use lots of extra words and introduce like tangential things
(21:49):
mid sentence, just anything to cloud the waters. And this
was just an unbelievable, you know, show of Thatlet's see,
let's start with Peter Doocey was on fire. Why don't
we Why don't we start with a reporter I can't
remember who asked the about the whole where's Jackie incident?
(22:11):
That's forty two. Wow, that came back up again. It did. Yeah,
it did this because of John Stewart and The Daily
Show the night before playing that and making a big
deal out of it. I'll bet it is. It could
have been. Yeah, fire away, Michael, and you'll remember this.
Speaker 7 (22:25):
This was an event where the President called out Congressman
and Jackie Lauriski looked for her in the room, even
though she had recently died. You told multiple reporters at
the time, and this was ado multiple different sty right, Yeah,
it was because she was top of mine, know the president.
I mean, would you on that example, would you offer
(22:46):
a different expliting.
Speaker 5 (22:47):
Amanda, because honestly, I spoke to the President right before
coming out that day, and that is what the President
told me. It's not something that came from me. That
is something that came from the president. So he was saying, even.
Speaker 7 (22:59):
As he question for her in the moment, it wasn't
as she was top of mine.
Speaker 5 (23:04):
Okay, that is coming as you just said in your question,
I speak for the president, I speak on behalf of him.
That was coming from him, and I was delivering directly
from the President what he was thinking at.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
The time, is anybody gonna bring up the to me
elephant in the room that why wasn't this conversation the
next day? If I was KJP, I'd be tempted to
ask the press, Hey, let me ask you something about
your job for once this happened two years ago, Why
did you just let it slide? Unless you are Peter
Doocey over here from Fox, none of you all cares
(23:38):
stole the words from my mouth. Give us forty one, Michael.
Speaker 5 (23:46):
It has been an unprecedented time. I think you guys
could admit that, right. It is an unprecedented time. And
so we are meeting the moment, a new moment that
has never really existed before. And so we want to
make sure that we get you all information that we have,
and when we don't have it, we do try our
best to provide that information. And so that is something
(24:08):
that I'm going to continue to do. And I've always
said it is an honor and the privilege to be
standing in front of you every day, exercising in the
freedom of the press.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
Yeah, I know a snowjab when I see it. Number One,
she's borrowed Kamalist speechwriters clearly. Number two, why are you
speaking these words? To us. Why are you saying these
things other than to kill sometime right abroad? What a
hilarious Let's all recognize we're in a new moment. This
is a different Yeah, the president's brain doesn't work. I mean,
(24:38):
you're acting like some weird occurrence has happened that just
fell upon you and there's nothing you can do about it,
and we all need to adjust, which is a weird
way to look at it. All right, one more pre
Peter Doucy question forty three, and then we'll get onto
Pete who was on fire yesterday.
Speaker 7 (24:58):
Very final question on the annual Sure Sure letter from
doctor O'Connor. He said that the president continues to be
fit for duty and fully executes all of his responsibilities
without any assumptions or accommodations. Just because it's been a
couple of months. Do you know if that statement is
still accurate. It's still accurate, So no assumption, is no accommodation,
(25:19):
exsumptions will accommodation.
Speaker 5 (25:20):
Here, thank you?
Speaker 1 (25:23):
What are extensions? I have no idea. KJP also was
schooled or decided herself that she'll be breezily, cheerful and positive.
I'd be positive and tearful I feel like that question
was laying the groundwork for a gotcha or a like
really hit a home run with some information, because the
(25:44):
idea that he hasn't there's been no adjustments in the
last couple of months. That is against all the reporting
that behind the scenes in the last couple of months
he's had a real drop right. And it was interesting.
I thought she sounded miserable at the end of that answer,
the way her voice dropped and she said no, none, Yeah,
(26:07):
they set her up for introducing new information to her
that's going to be devastating. I think I think that's
a good call. I think you're absolutely right. Ah, let's see.
Oh one more. This is about the cold she was
asked about. You know, he said he had a cold
at the press conference that come on now and forty five.
Speaker 5 (26:28):
Look, you know, one of the reasons that we shared
that he had a cold is because during the debate,
in real time, everybody heard his hoarse voice and folks
asked and we were able to come We were able
to confirm right away that he had a cold and
that he was also tested negative for COVID, so we
were able to share that in real time.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
So just also want to share that.
Speaker 5 (26:50):
Look, he pushed forward. Right, many of us have colds,
and we still push forward. He's the president of the
United States. You understand how important it is to continue
to get up every morning, regardless of how you feel, right,
to get things done.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
Wow, what turned it to he should get a cookie
or a metal or something. We all have colds, and
he pushed through it. He did his and he used
this big boy Kleenex. If he did have a cold,
and I don't think he did, he should have mentioned
it during the debate. Sorry, sorry for my voice. I've
got a bit of a cold. Just want to let
(27:26):
you know that you know, or something like that, or
sorry for my voice. I've got a rather advanced case
of Parkinson's. Right, I barely know my name, and I
think I just wet myself. Many of us have had colds,
and we press on. The president pressed on. We're able
to tell you in real time. Oh please, you don't
(27:48):
be as a BS sir, and don't heck, you don't
be us an eight year old. She is so clearly
just floundering. Well, I've got a cold, and yesterday somebody
asked me about abortion, and I started talking about immigration
because we all do that, and we have a cold
clip forty Peter Doucey if you need him.
Speaker 6 (28:05):
Officials are pointing to policies in place to ensure national
security in times of emergency, even though President Biden told
a group of governors that moving forward, he plans to
get more sleep by working less after eight pm.
Speaker 8 (28:18):
Say that the Pentagon at some point picks up an
incoming new it's eleven pm.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
Who do you call the first lady.
Speaker 5 (28:25):
He has a team that lets him know of any
of any news that is pertinent and important to the
American people.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
That's not an answer. No, No, The whole three am call,
which was a huge advertising point if you remember in
twenty sixteen between Hillary and Trump that was he ready
for the three am vocal? Okay, well let's continue that theme.
Then is Joe Biden, I mean his own people said
he can't work past eight or something like that. I
(28:55):
mean that's crazy. Yeah, yeah, So one of the and
this unfolded over too long a period to play the audio,
but there were a number of questions about the president's physicians,
reports on his condition, on the fact that that famous
uh essentially Parkinson's expert had visited the White House eight
(29:18):
times in eight months. What did it mean had the
president been examined that sort of thing? And KJP categorically
denied that the president had been examined for any neurological problems.
That'd be crazy. Well, oh yeah, if this was my
dad or my just anybody I loved that would that Well,
(29:38):
it's crazy. You're absolutely right. And here's Doucey following up
on that in forty four. And I think the rather
you know, the absence of an answer is your answer.
Speaker 8 (29:50):
So I guess the question is just this is not
you're saying, this is not a situation where you would
rather just not know. If there is a is If
he does get a bad result, it is all over.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
He has some right away. He can't run for reelection.
Speaker 5 (30:06):
First of all, it's a hypothetical, right That's that you're
giving me a hypothetical. But I will also say, just
to clear this up, the White House Medical Unit, his doctor,
they don't believe that he needs anything more than what
can we have been able to provide a full, full, detailed,
(30:28):
very comprehensive physical that he had four months ago. That
is their decision to make. It's not yours, it's not
knowing it's the White White House Medical Unit.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
Yeah, so, Peter Doocey driving at Look, you haven't had
an official examination with an official result because you don't
want to know. Well, case, you already know because I
was a loved one. Getting back to that scenario, like,
if it's my dad and he's acting like Joe Biden,
thank god, he's not even close and he's eighty seven
or whatever it is. Dad, you're listening right now, I
don't know your age. If it were my dad and
(31:02):
the doctor said, we gave him a normal physical like
we give everyone, and he's fine, Well, no, you're fired.
I'm getting a different doctor. What are you talking about.
He obviously needs somebody to look specifically at his brain. Yeah. Absolutely.
And the truth is, and we discussed this last time
he had his examine and put out the results. The
presidents can put out or not put out whatever they want.
(31:22):
This is not some sort of you know, it's not
in the constitution. So if the president wants to put
out a very cursory stating from his doctor looks good
to me, that's that's fine. He can do that. And
Biden quite notably, has not released anything about his neurological function. No,
and they didn't ask me because her non answer and
that rambling crap is just please, that's all I need
(31:45):
to hear. They haven't looked into it, because then they
can honestly deny that you know, any doctor said anything
negative exactly. It's when did you know it? What did
you know? And when did you know it? One of
those things. There have been unofficial exams with unofficial results,
and everybody knows what's going on behind the scenes. Just
nothing on paper. You need to take a break. Wow,
this is a scandal. We got Katie's headlines and a
(32:06):
bunch of other stuff on the way. People often say
summer colds are the worst. Are summer colds actually any
different than other colds? Or you just hate having a
cold more in the summer than you do the rest
of the year, which I've always assumed is the case.
Probably that one. Yeah, it doesn't seem like it makes
sense that they'd be any different. And what's your current
(32:27):
belief on zinc and that sort of stuff? Us reading
on that, and the latest data was not as great
as I remember it being about zinc in its effectiveness.
I haven't seen the latest data. I just I know it.
They always said it limited the duration and severity if
you get on it soon enough. But yeah, the latest
data says the severity doesn't change tall and might make
(32:48):
it shorter by a day or two, which ain't nothing.
Speaker 9 (32:51):
But the heat isn't The heat isn't helping.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
Right, Yeah, yeah, Adred one hundred and five degrees where
I live. All right, so let's launch into the lead
story with Katie Green, who's reporting? What Katie? Please? All right?
ABC News.
Speaker 9 (33:09):
Biden launches NATO's summit by pledging new air defense support
for Ukraine.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
Yeah, I'm all for that, but man, his quadrupling down
on We're in it with Ukraine to the end and
Russia will never succeed and all that sort of stuff.
Does he mean that? He shared him act like he
means it. And one of the most troubling stories of
the day from Wall Street Journal explaining how Russia's had
(33:36):
a chance to examine our weapons systems at length over
years now and has figured out how to counter most
of them. More on that to come later in the show.
Speaker 9 (33:45):
From NBC News quote, There's no way out. Democrats feel
powerless as elites fall in line behind Biden.
Speaker 1 (33:54):
They are powerless, I mean literally powerless. They do not
have the power to remove him if he doesn't want
to go. And I've just conceded to that, I guess.
Speaker 9 (34:04):
From the Washington Times hiding in playing sight, Biden's mental
and physical decline has been on display from the start.
Speaker 1 (34:13):
Will this be right now? Will this be reckoned with
at some point? No, if we didn't reckon with the
school closures during COVID place right from.
Speaker 9 (34:23):
CBS News, san Diego has more fleas than any other
city in the United States.

I hope the pandas don't get your fleas.

idea of what they mean. But hu, I want to
go for a walk. I think somebody's here. I think
I heard something. What And finally the Babylon.

B White House visitor law reveal.
Speaker 1 (35:01):
Grim Reaper visited over eight times? Oh wow, hey, I

it's a lot soon, maybe a little soon. Like you said,
if he was my dad, I would not be making
plans for next year's golf trip. No heck. Now, that's
that's the way you put it that way, that's that's
