Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty Armstrong and
Getty and Key.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
No cops for almost three hours, three hours.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
Of a fight at UCLA and no cops. Are you
kidding me?
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Complete chaos, lawlessness, Live from Studio c U see La Senior,
a dimly lit room deep within the bowels of the
Armstrong and Getty Communications compound.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Hey, y'all, midweek Wednesday. We're under the tutelage of our
general manager co.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
General managers today Jack law and orders.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
It's time for them to return.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
Oh my god, if you have not heard it, people
who ain't putting up with these uh pro Hamas protests,
that UCLA showed up and said we're gonna take care
of this since nobody else will.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Yeah, big finish, here, here we go, pow. We're not
gonna have.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Neo Marxist hate groups take over our universities.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Yeah, haven't it?
Speaker 3 (01:36):
And you had a three hour battle between pro Palestinian protesters,
anti war protesters, or pro Hamas protesters, depending on who
you ask, and a bunch of people who say, yeah,
Jews are gonna go to class on this campus. And
there were bats and fireworks and sticks and all kinds.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Of the metal bars. I mean, it was quite the
man life. And it went on for almost.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
Three hours with not a single cop in sight. A
couple of cops were sighted at one point they turned
around and left when they thought what's going on?
Speaker 1 (02:08):
And they left.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
And it's getting so little coverage. I feel like I'm
going crazy. I feel like I'm going crazy. So I'm
watching Fox News. I wish I hadn't gone to Betterly
last night. So this erupted on Fox News at eleven
o'clock live on the West Coast, and they covered it
until early in the morning.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
The whole three hours.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
They were there with cameras, so they got a lot
of footage and talking to people and that sort of stuff.
Other channels it's either nonexistent or a half sentence.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Also a violent protests and UCLA and other news.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Trump Trump trump trump trump trump trump trump Trump. Yeah,
just no coverage. I turned on NPR driving to work,
like one sentence and this is on the West Coast.
I just I feel like I'm going crazy. And part
of that's just the weird East Coast New York bias.
So it's whatever happened to Columbia way more important than
anything that happens at UCLA. But you're telling me it's
(03:03):
not a major story that pro Jewish groups showed up
with bats and said we ain't having this.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
That's a big deal now.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
I would never encourage that sort of violence, the bats,
the poles, the fireworks shot at the pro Hamas crowd.
On the other hand, I'm a gifted puppeteer, and I
wanted to introduce you to my puppet, Fuzzy Bear.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Fuzzy, what do you think. I'm glad they whooped their ass.
I wish they'd whooped more ass. Oh, Fuzzy, they beat
him down and took away their camp. I hope that
spreads all across the country.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Oh, Fuzzy, turn off his mike. We shouldn't have Fuzzy
saying things like that. Wow, Fuzzy's some sort of right winger.
I never knew that about you, Fuzzy.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Oh whoop beer ass too?
Speaker 5 (03:44):
Boy?
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Oh boy, I'm sure glow you.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
Joe Getti didn't say that because it sound like you
were in favor of vigilante justice to take care of
these pro terrorist thugs. And luckily it was your puppet.
Who really really going to get a talking to after
the show today? Oh yeah, I've already scheduled a meeting.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
I'll be there. Well, we talked about this yesterday.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
You had video footage proof of the fact that UCLA
had people saying are you a Jew? Well, then you're
not going to class? And where is the governor? Where
are the cops? Where's the FBI civil rights investigation? Like
if somebody got misgendered or not allowed into the right
bathroom or something like that, where's the freaking governor on
(04:31):
this story? I mean, that's unbelievable. And you got a
three hour battle on campus and no cops.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
What the hell? The only thing I could think about,
if I.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Was gonna be charitable, I'm I guarantee this is not
what happened. If I was gonna be super charitable, bebe
the cops are like, yeah, let's just see how this
turns out for a while, and they let the thugs
with the bats show up and do their thing for
three hours before they found their way over there.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
But I don't think that's probably what happened.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
I wonder if they had playing close kuy unseen the radio,
and so far, so good, as bad as that puppet.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
Michael.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
I know, Metal Guy has to warm up his voice
in the morning, But is California not crumbling?
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Is that his take on things?
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Or come on now, I just yeah, I don't even
know where to begin. We could start with the utter
just one hundred percent proof dishonesty of the left, all
of their howling about principles and this is hurtful and
the year of a fascist and you're gonna end Democrats
that all of that is lies, all of it. All
(05:36):
they want is power, that metal Guy, that is what
you just said. The most interesting thing, that's exactly what
I was saying about is driving work today. All that
stuff for the past decade or five years or harmalong
this has been going on was crap.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
It was all crap. I thought maybe it was real.
It was crazy, but it was real. It was just crap.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
Yeah, all of the outrage over Charlottesville from the left. Oh,
they're sitting on their hands now. NPR doesn't notice what's
going on.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
I didn't. I didn't see anything.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Can you imagine dishonesty of that sort on that scale.
It's sickening to think that human beings can that be
that dishonest? All of that microaggression stuff we've been hearing
for years in mocking, you know, and changing words. So
you don't say, you know, manhood because that's offensive to people,
So make sure you say personhood.
Speaker 6 (06:29):
You know.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
Just all these different weird things that we've been mocking
was all crap.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
It was all a weapon.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
They're perfectly fine with flat out violent violence like people
being hurt or killed or asking for people to be
perfectly fine with that as long as it's the right
side of the argument as far as it's concerned. Yeah,
they are a person who will waidhe in and throw
punch after punch, hitting people in the face. Then the
(06:56):
minute anybody lifts a finger against them, they start screaming violence, violence.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
This is unsair, this is unfair, It's all crap.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
How do you explain the lack of coverage of what
happened at UCLA last night. I feel like that's a
major moment in our country's history that the other side
has decided, you know what, nobody's doing anything about this,
We're gonna do it.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
So who were these people that showed up?
Speaker 3 (07:18):
I imagine we'll learn more about that throughout the day,
So there was there was one kid that was in
the middle of the three hour melee I saw on
Fox and Friends this morning, and he said, these weren't
college students. These guys were like thirty. These guys were
like thirty years old. So I don't know who they
were or what they were up to, but they they
(07:40):
had had enough.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
I suspect this is exactly what I predicted. What was
it a week ago or something like that, that we
would see a return of the we're not having this
on the right crowd. The you call it vigilantes if
you want counter protesters without you know, bizarrow ideas about
(08:02):
you know, race and the election or whatever. Just people
who value law and order and recognize anti semitism when
they see it and are not gonna let the little
Marxists get away with it. And it's inevitable. I mean,
it's not like, oh now, Joe Gett, he's encouraging vigilantism. No,
it's it's a question of societal mathematics. But the one
(08:23):
your puppet sounded like he was.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Maybe I don't get my puppet back out again. Tell
you what, you can't take the heat, get the f
out of the kitchen.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Oh fuzzy wow, that puppet is out of control. But
what I think he's trying to say is it's societal mathematics.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
The one flows from the other.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
You can't have Marxist a whole violent anti Semites out
of nineteen thirty six Germany. And it'll be a different
issue tomorrow that they'll be, you know, burning down buildings
and smashing glass and killing people. Maybe it will be
Black Lives matter again.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
Who knows. The normal people of.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
The society who aren't Marxists are gonna say we're not
having it. At some point in various forms, the university
chancellor UCLA has condemned horrific acts of violence.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
The big question should be how.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Does it go on for three hours before there are
any cops there?
Speaker 1 (09:22):
What is that?
Speaker 3 (09:26):
There? You go, metal guy getting more specific there, Yeah,
it's it's it's just dysfunction thirty minutes, forty five minutes.
Maybe the conversation is about reaction time. Three hours is
a choice to let it go, is what the conversation is.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
I don't know an alternative explanation that makes any sense.
That is crazy.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
We didn't hear about it. Nobody said anything. We're all
asleep at eleven o'clock at night in Los Angeles. I
don't know, I'm groping here. How long would it have
taken the cops to show up if some transgender person
was being abused and was called in?
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Yeah, I don't know. I would like to know more
about it.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
And certainly, if you're a cop, you deal with this
sort of thing in LA cop especially your Sheriff's department,
email US mail bag at armstrong and geeddy dot com,
you will of course be anonymous.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
I wonder if there were tactically well, I wonder.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
If there are tactical concerns that all right, nobody's getting
killed at this point. It's just, you know, a little
back and forth, a little head bappen now and again,
you know, get the steam out.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
This is They're twenty twenty four. When is this okay?
Speaker 3 (10:36):
Where you have giant groups of people beating each other
with bats and shooting off fireworks and the cops say, oh,
let's just see how it turns out.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
I've never heard of this before. You've introduced a new thing. Well,
I agree completely.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
So you're saying the only possible explanation is is what
a political decision to not get involved for some reason,
and I don't know what it would be.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Well, it could be the.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Sort of cowardice that characterizes Calornia institutions, where the presidents
of the universities.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Refuse to be mean.
Speaker 3 (11:06):
I don't want anybody to see me doing anything mean.
We can't enforce the rules. We can't enforce laws. We
can't even give kids bees if they don't do the work.
We've got to give a maze. This is complete spinelessness. God,
it's pathetic. We've got more on this than some of
the hilarious quotes not supposed to be hilarious from various
people like Karen Bass, the mayor of Los Angeles. We'll
(11:28):
get to that a little bit later, but we got
to start the show officially. I'm Jack Armstrong. He's Joe
Getty on this it is Wednesday. Why new month prints
new May first, the year twenty twenty four. We are
Armstrong and Getty. Life will not be a born twenty four.
We approve of this program. Oh, this is exciting. It's
just been announced that the puppet has its own show.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Oh really, come be Middays right after ours. Yeah, all right,
let's begin officially now.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
According to de FCC rules and regulations leaping into action
at mark.
Speaker 7 (11:55):
Protesters and kind of protesters went at each other with
huge wooden poles. They went at each other with pepper spray.
They went at each other with firecrackers, tossing them into crowds,
literally right in the middle of groups of people gathered.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
That's not something police don't respond to unless it's a decision.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
You know.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
I realize they're not grenades, but people are throwing explosives
at each other.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
And beating each other with giant wooden bowls, which all
of them.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
Okay, okay, Michael, I was with a puppet.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Okay, I was waiting for that one.
Speaker 3 (12:33):
That is the greatest thing ever, Michael National treasure, Michael Angelo.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
How does how does mail bag look? How much time
for it?
Speaker 3 (12:42):
But it's okay, kind I'm worried about my job, that
the puppet's gonna get our job and then we're gonna
be on the breaks. The puppet is hot, he's got
he's got buzz, he's got raz The text line four
one five nine five KFTC join just saw a KTLA
(13:05):
reporter Los Angeles UCLA campus say the scary thing was
the pro Israeli protesters had their faces covered, so that
made it extra scary for everybody.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Oh really, I'll be darned. You can't parody this stuff.
It's just too stupid. Here's your freedom loving quote of
the day.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
Loyal listener Kevin Beautiful, Sacramento, California, sent this along.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
It's from Mario Savio, who was one of the.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
Leaders of the free speech movement to nineteen sixty eight
at U SEE Berkeley. I have to say that, for me,
the deepest free speech quote is what was attributed to
Diogenes and he said, quote, the most beautiful thing in
the world is the freedom of speech.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
And those words are in me.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
They're sort of burned into my soul because for me,
free speech was not a tactic, not something to win
for political To me, free speech, freedom of speech is
something that represents the very dignity of what a human
being is. You cannot speak, I mean, that's what marks
us off. That's what marks us off from the stones
and the stars. You can speak freely. So I would
remind you, yes, he actually meant free speech, not just
(14:09):
free speech. He agreed with Yeah, he seemed to Yeah,
like any radical movement, there's a pastiche of people with
various opinions and points of view back then as now.
But the reason I like that so much is he
was a man of the left who is going on
and on and on about free speech and how it's
close to his soul. I would remind you that the
radical left will silence your speech the second they get
(14:32):
control of the situation. Just try to say a man
is not a woman in some government office in Calty, Unicornia,
for instance, Or disagree with their points of view on Israel,
or do you think shouted down or you think the
COVID came out of the lab right exactly. Yeah, the
government and Mark Zuckerberg and Stanford University will remove your
(14:53):
post for saying that. For instance, now the FBI says
that Stanford proud of yourselves.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
Mailbag Dad got this from Jeff.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
He sent it along as a twist post on some
social media. Can we please get an air drop to
Columbia University. We need nine hundred s Sasi bowls, thirteen
hundred impossible burgers on gluten free bread with sugar, vegan ketchup,
and three thousand bottles of pH nine phino electrolite water.
This is urgent sugar vegan ketchup.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
I like this one. Let's see who's this from? Scott
currently stealing our show from France? Good for you. At
the as.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
The Columbia pro Hamas protest is moved into its next
phase of taking over a campus hall.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Well it did.
Speaker 3 (15:42):
They're down to their last card tele officials. They have
a lease now they're squatters as well. It takes six
months or so? Is the course decide whether or not they.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Can be evicted?
Speaker 6 (15:52):
Now?
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Would have been clever. This is my house. What are
you talking about?
Speaker 3 (15:55):
You get the magical collision of these insane college protests
and squatter's rights. Is it bad that part of me
really wants to see this happen? That's an excellent point. Yeah,
if you if you're a protester, you get evicted immediately.
If you're a squad or it takes six months. Unlamal,
interesting idea. Greg from Detroit one of a couple of
people who said the same thing. Evidently this is kicking
(16:16):
around online. If Trump voluntarily withdrew his name from the
ballot in California because he has practically zero chance of winning,
and you know so he can't get any electoral votes anyway,
and all of Trump's voters cast ballots for RFK or
Biden's supporters. Would RFK get enough votes to win California
(16:38):
outright and thereby deny biden fifty five electoral clever move?
Why doesn't that work? Somebody might have to explain why
that isn't brilliant. Is there a reason you must be
missing something? Trump might not appreciate losing the millions of
popular votes just because of his ego, which tries his
entire existence president of the United States. Well, you're rational.
(17:02):
That is such an interesting it's an interesting idea. Oh,
we've got a charming email about loyal listener Daniel's thirteen
year old son getting even with the irs, But no
time for that.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Maybe that later.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Oh, we've got some rich stuff from you, from crazy
protesters and more from UCLA. And what all the people
are saying after the armed, pitched battle that went on
for three hours last night on the UCLA campus.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Arm Strong and Getty.
Speaker 5 (17:30):
You know what, it's unbelievable. I've called police nine times already.
They say they're handling. They're not handling anything. This is
the UCLA should be sued for this, for allowing this
to happen. For allowing these people to come here and
fight with each other. This is not acceptable, absolutely not acceptable. Everything,
everything about this is lawless.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
That's a Jewish student saying somebody should be sued. Oh,
there's gonna be lots of lawsuits. There'll be so much
litigation over this. All across the country, but particularly UCLA.
We've got document evidence of barring Jewish kids from going
to class or the library, and the college not having
anything to say about it.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Governor has nothing to say about it.
Speaker 3 (18:08):
State of California doesn't care, college doesn't care, nobody cares,
cops don't care. And on some of our city streets
in New York in particular, we've had a couple of
mini crystal knocks where the windows were smashed out of
Jewish owned businesses, delis and that sort of thing.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Yeah, so great.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
So late in the evening yesterday there was an announcement
UCLA said, all right, enough, you pro Palestinian protesters have
got to pick up your tents and go.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
This is the end of the road.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
Well before that deadline hit, a whole bunch of armed
men showed up pro Israeli protesters. Counter protesters are being
called and this is how it went this. Here's the
report on that whole story.
Speaker 7 (18:52):
Not a single police officer was anywhere to be seen
for three and a half hours. I saw two LAPD
cars at one point from one of the helicopter shots.
They left the scene, and then nobody, no California Highway Patrol,
no Los Angeles Police Department, no campus police department, nobody
(19:15):
there as these two sides fought quite literally pitched battles
for close to three hours, and only then we heard
from Mayor Karen Bass that the LAPD was responding, in
her words, immediately responding, but immediately meant three hours after
the fighting started. It was an extraordinary moment to watch
(19:36):
about that with my wife. I'll be there immediately, honey.
Speaker 3 (19:40):
In three and a half hours, about fifty guys in
masks with wooden poles.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Which poles all of them, okay, and bear spray and
fireworks among other things.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
Metal bars showed up with the idea of we're going
to drive the pro Palestinian protesters out of UCLA, and
a battle ensued, and it is amazing. You can see
you got the combination of the time zone situation. So
it was on I went to bed earlier than normal
(20:16):
or I would have caught this. I'd have been up
all night long watching it because it looks like it
was amazing to cover.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Live.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Fox had it on live, and it was on for
like eleven o'clock PM West Coast time till two in
the morning. In the East Coast, of course, it was
the middle of the night, and because the East Coast
is so focused on New York, they're getting up and
still talking about Columbia University where they cleared that out
and blah blah blah, what every The reason everybody was
tuning into the Columbia thing was they thought it was
going to look like what happened at UCLA.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
But it didn't.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
The thing that you were all excited about did happen
at UCLA, and you're not covering it for some reason.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
I find that weird.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
I mean, you want you wanted, you wanted violence, you
wanted people fighting and fireworks and beatings and stuff like that. Yeah,
that happened on the West Coast last night with not
a cop to be seen, as you just heard, for
several hours, which is I don't even know how you
describe what the hell's going on there.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
Yeah, I'd like to.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
Know more about the people, the counter protesters in who
they are and what they were thinking and the rest
of it. And as always we at the Armstrong and
Getty showed to cry, we condemn all political violence on
all sides. On the other hand, my buppet, Fuzzy, what
do you think, Fuzzy, well, who's.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
The brave revolutionary? Now you get your mask on here.
Speaker 8 (21:32):
Tough guy, y'all put October seventh, How do you like
April thirtieth?
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Bitches? Gotcha ask kick fuzzy. Fuzzy, we're on the air.
You gotta watch your language. Jeez.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
We've got this new reactionary puppet and says things that
we do not condone or agree with about, you know,
meeting meeting violence with violence and that sort of thing. No,
no vigilance, got no filter. Yeah, Fuzzy, take any how'd
you like April thirtieth?
Speaker 1 (21:58):
Bitch? Is that what he said? What he said? How
are you getting? Hitting head with the ball? How do
you like it?
Speaker 3 (22:03):
Oh, Fuzzy, Wow, I am not I'm not okay with
some of the things. Fuzzy says. Again, you can't trust
a wild animal. Everybody knows that The Armstrong and Getty
Show distances itself from the provigilante.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Fuzzy the bear is a fuzzy bear. He is a bear. Clearly.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
Yes, this is from the vice Chancellor of UCLA. Horrific
acts of violence occurred at the encampment tonight, and we
immediately called law enforcement for mutual aid support, which arrived
three hours later. Or you called too late or something.
The fire department and medical personnel are on the scene.
We are sickened by the senseless violence, and it must end.
I'm sickened by senseless violence. But who dropped the ball
(22:44):
on the cops getting there?
Speaker 1 (22:45):
And why? Writing on x or, I call it Twitter.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
The Mayor of Los Angeles, Karen Bass, condemned the violence
as absolutely abhorrent and inexcusable.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
Again, where are the cops?
Speaker 3 (22:58):
LA Police said, at the request of UCLA due to
multiple acts of violence within the large encampment. LAPD is
responding to us and okay, all this happened at like
two in the morning. It started at eleven pm. I
have a bit of a clue for you. I got
this note from alien anonymous or alnanymous. I'm not sure
read the No police at UCLA colleges are like fiefdoms.
(23:20):
Administration officials would have to actually invite and authorize city
state police to intervene, as I found out after I
was assaulted by a student as I was teaching a
class and got no support from the campus police. Tried
to get the regular cops to protect them, and then
they were told no, no, no, they can only come
on if invited. Okay, well yeah, somebody needs to have
(23:43):
to answer for this, because it's ridiculous. I mean, if
you watch the videos, if you catch any the videos
today and we'll post some of this stuff.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
It was a violent melee.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
It's not like at Columbia where you could make the argument, well,
they're peaceful. Protesters were not going to invite it. No,
this was a violent melee that needed the police there
as soon as possible. It's amazing nobody got killed or
seriously injured. I haven't heard of anybody being seriously injured
at any point. Here's a geography professor at UCLA condemned
the university over its lack of response to the counter protesters. Okay,
(24:14):
with the pro Palestinian protesters taken over the campus apparently.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
And not allowing Jewish kids to go to class.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
And calling openly for a genocide of Jews. Yeah, from
the river to the sea. Where are the Jew's gonna
go in your scenario? And Hamas is a vowed to
kill them, and you've chanted in favor of Hamas. Okay,
you can't get away with that forever. This UCLA professor said,
it gives people impunity to come on our campus as
a rand paging mob. Word is out. They can do
this repeatedly and get away with it. I'm ashamed of
(24:41):
my university.
Speaker 8 (24:42):
You're not ashamed of your university. It doesn't allow Jewish
kids to go to class. I just again, I feel
like I'm going crazy. I can't believe this is actually happening.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
The universities have gotten precisely what they had to get.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
It was inevitable. They are what they've sown.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
You cannot teach radical leftist politics and exclusively practically radical
leftism on college campuses and not get radical leftism. What's
not to get here? It's obvious to me, what's what's
the faculty UCLA? A liberal is a conservative Democrats to
Republican Democrat or Democratic socialist or Republicans.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
It's probably one hundred and fifty to one.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
So you turned out little radical leftist would be baby revolutionaries.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
When did we don't have the balls to get a
B in a class and they're going to be an
e fing revolutionary.
Speaker 6 (25:35):
This is just it.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
It's too much.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
Okay, your main issue is climate change, and you know
you believe in trensien to rights and all these different things.
But when did not letting Jewish kids go to class
become alright, that's not they're on the left, so they
let them. Is that Logenesse report Hanson also UCLA related.
(26:03):
All right, hear nothing? Play forty six for me, Michael.
This is one of the UCLA Jewish students. Again on
last night.
Speaker 6 (26:10):
When there it was there Ramadan, we didn't do anything
to them, and then this is this is what's going
on in our passover. So this again we have to
make a stop.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
We're the Jewish people. We never laid down. I'm sorry.
Speaker 6 (26:24):
We will exist on a cert for the rest of eternity.
And whoever doesn't like it, tough fluck.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
Sorry.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
Who were the fifty dudes that showed up with weapons
and decided we're taking matters into our own hands?
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Who were they? That is something.
Speaker 3 (26:43):
And I mean if I was, if I was this
geography professor that's so ashamed of his university for allowing
the pro Palestinian I mean the pro Israel protesters or
counter protesters or what do you want to call them
so we can call them throughout the show, So I'm
not struggling for a word. What do we want to
call them? The pro Israel crowd? Okay, when the pro
(27:04):
Israel crowd showed up, I would be thinking it was
some sort of conspiracy against the pro Palestinians that like
the cops didn't show up because they had this armed
band of pro Israeli protesters show up and get away
with beating on people for three hours. But I don't
know what the explanation is bro that.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
I think I could be wrong, but I doubt I am.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
I think the explanation is that you remember the Ronald
Reagan clips we played yesterday in which Reagan was saying,
this is not complicated.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
You enforce the rules.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
Your first mistake was giving these little nut jobs the
idea that they could choose which rules they follow in
which ones they don't.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
What you're seeing is the opposite of that.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
In California's current university president's almost to a man or woman,
they are exactly the opposite. If it's coming from the left,
they will let it go until the very last moment
where they have to do something, and then they will
engage in half measures. They are the anti Reagan's running
the campuses. I think it's as simple as that.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
Now Fox was covering this last night.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
I don't know how much coverage you got anywhere else,
and it's not getting near the national attention it should.
But here's more William Lagenes on the UCLA battle.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
About forty six out of the top fifty universities have
had anti Israel protests in the last two weeks, right,
And as I looked at that list last night, in
about the about one hundred and fifty arrests nationwide, about
half of those were not students at all, but outsiders
and people. UCLA knows who's in this encampment. There's a
(28:37):
check in area, you give your name and this kind
of thing. They're supposed to check you off the list
of their student.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Or not to get in there.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
Not anyone can just get in there, right, so they
know that this is infiltrated, if you will, by a
lot of individuals who are not who are not students
here at all.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
Right, So you got these fifty pro Israel protesters that
showed up, who were like all around thirty years old
according to one of the students. So they're not students
showing up to battle a bunch of people who are
also not students over the issue.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Of whether or not we're going to support Israel.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
It reminds me of the Antifa versus Proud Boyd battles
in Portland on and off in years past. How does
the powerful left not understand if you leave a vacuum
at some point the other side is going to show
up with bats and say, all right, I guess we'll
try to do something about it.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
Maybe I let the bear answer.
Speaker 8 (29:36):
If that's what it takes to rest restore law and orders,
so be it.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
Does the bear drink that was remarkably restrained fuzzy, and
we appreciate it. The bear sometimes seeks out fermented bearries, yes,
just to relax in the evening.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
Puppets are human beings too, the bear man, that's a
throwback clip. The bear is a reactionary.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
The bear has strong feelings. The bear voted for Nixon.
That is clearly true.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
All right, So.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
We've got Katie's headlines always stay with us. Yeah, we
got a number of texts saying, look for this being
portrayed through the day, that the pro Israeli people were violent,
the anti war crowd was peaceful. So a peaceful protest
(30:27):
was attacked by a violent pro Israeli mob. Leaving out,
of course, the fact that Jewish students are not being
allowed to go to class, being physically barred from getting
into the library UCLA, and nobody was doing anything about it.
Julie just dropped us notes said call them anti Hamas protesters.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
I think that's probably legit.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
Yeah, Yeah, we'll have a lot more on this, and
we've got to at some point in the show get
to it made the rounds on social media, but if
you didn't catch it, there's a girl, what was he
at Columbia given a speech about how they need food
and water that is just hilarious. And more hilarious, that
is her background, which is just delightful and fits in
with the whole college fraud thing that is going on
(31:09):
at certain levels, these ridiculous degrees.
Speaker 1 (31:13):
It's just insane.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
All right, First, let's figure out who's reporting what. It's
the lead story with Katie Green.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
Katie thank you guys. From NBC News.
Speaker 9 (31:23):
Police respond to violent clashes at UCLA. Hundreds arrested after
occupied Columbia.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
Building is cleared.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
Well, what a misrepresentation of the story. A three hour
violent battle and then the police show up.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
What's going on there?
Speaker 9 (31:41):
From the Associated Press, Blinken tells Israeli hostage families strong
proposal on the table and urges Hamas to accept it.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (31:51):
I did a deep dive into this last night. This
is ridiculous. Israel has offered, you know, prisoner exchanges of
seven hundred to one, I mean, just just given everything
and gotten very very little in return, and Hamas just
keeps turning it down. They're not going to make a deal.
It's not in their interests to make a deal, Hammas,
(32:14):
I mean.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
From ABC News.
Speaker 9 (32:17):
Trump to swing through two battleground states for first time
since start of criminal.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
Hush money trial.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
Oh really, are they on a pause or is he
doing it on the weekend? What's the story there?
Speaker 9 (32:31):
He is going to be back on the campaign trail today.
Speaker 1 (32:35):
He doesn't have to be in court. I'm I suspect
they're taking a break. Trials office, you'll take a breakout
because a juror has a dentist appointment or something like that,
gon't you.
Speaker 9 (32:44):
From market Watch, consumer confidence drops to twenty one month
low due to worries about food and gas prices.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
Woof, my consumer confidence wasn't that high in the last
twenty one months, but it's at almost.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Two year low. Bad news for the ancient senile president.
Speaker 9 (33:04):
From The New York Times, eight daily newspapers sue Open
AI and Microsoft over artificial intelligence.
Speaker 6 (33:12):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
I saw this headline. I was going to look into it.
I think this is another one of those good luck battles.
I mean, yeah, it's certainly a brand new area of
the law. It's like the AI goes out and they read,
quote unquote everything the New York Times was printed and
then repackage it and sell it to you.
Speaker 1 (33:30):
That's plagiarism. We'll have to talk about this more later.
Speaker 9 (33:33):
And speaking of AI, from Metro UK, AI priest defract
after taking confession and saying that babies could be baptized
in gatorade.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
All right, I don't even know what to do with that.
It's got electrolytes. Yeah, I read about that.
Speaker 3 (33:52):
It's they tried to create an AI priest and like
everything AI, he went nuts.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
And went like way beyond the bounce supposed to be.
Speaker 9 (34:00):
Doing from USA today, man accused of kicking bison in
alcohol related incident in yellow Park or Yellowstone Park.
Speaker 3 (34:11):
Bison kicker alcohol time carries its own punishment.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
Doesn't that let him kick the bison?
Speaker 3 (34:17):
And just that's where the police should stand back and
just let it work itself out.
Speaker 9 (34:22):
And finally the Babylon b Biden drops support for pro
Palestine protesters after realizing how bad their hair smells.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
Wow hair sniff and rebound or going back to that story.
Speaker 3 (34:39):
Boy, the Biden administration has got to be figuring out
how do we get on the right side of this
whole thing nationwide and come out ahead? Then not handling
it well so far? And again, where was the governor
of California over the last couple of days? Where is
he today? On violent riots at the UCLA? Yeah, yeah,
it's interesting monitoring email and we have many requests for
(35:03):
a Fuzzy the reactionary bear T shirt.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Then we have one from Aaron saying Joe, you're promoting violence.
Well the bear was.
Speaker 3 (35:14):
I'll be back, but turning off for today, very disappointed.
Here's my point, Aaron, I think watching lawlessness long enough
gives decent people the urge to do something about it.
Got to recognize that that's just the truth.
Speaker 1 (35:30):
Armstrong and Getty
Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George
Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty Armstrong and
Getty and Key.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
No cops for almost three hours, three hours.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
Of a fight at UCLA and no cops. Are you
kidding me?
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Complete chaos, lawlessness, Live from Studio c U see La Senior,
a dimly lit room deep within the bowels of the
Armstrong and Getty Communications compound.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Hey, y'all, midweek Wednesday. We're under the tutelage of our
general manager co.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
General managers today Jack law and orders.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
It's time for them to return.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
Oh my god, if you have not heard it, people
who ain't putting up with these uh pro Hamas protests,
that UCLA showed up and said we're gonna take care
of this since nobody else will.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Yeah, big finish, here, here we go, pow. We're not
gonna have.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Neo Marxist hate groups take over our universities.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Yeah, haven't it?
Speaker 3 (01:36):
And you had a three hour battle between pro Palestinian protesters,
anti war protesters, or pro Hamas protesters, depending on who
you ask, and a bunch of people who say, yeah,
Jews are gonna go to class on this campus. And
there were bats and fireworks and sticks and all kinds.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Of the metal bars. I mean, it was quite the
man life. And it went on for almost.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
Three hours with not a single cop in sight. A
couple of cops were sighted at one point they turned
around and left when they thought what's going on?
Speaker 1 (02:08):
And they left.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
And it's getting so little coverage. I feel like I'm
going crazy. I feel like I'm going crazy. So I'm
watching Fox News. I wish I hadn't gone to Betterly
last night. So this erupted on Fox News at eleven
o'clock live on the West Coast, and they covered it
until early in the morning.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
The whole three hours.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
They were there with cameras, so they got a lot
of footage and talking to people and that sort of stuff.
Other channels it's either nonexistent or a half sentence.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Also a violent protests and UCLA and other news.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Trump Trump trump trump trump trump trump trump Trump. Yeah,
just no coverage. I turned on NPR driving to work,
like one sentence and this is on the West Coast.
I just I feel like I'm going crazy. And part
of that's just the weird East Coast New York bias.
So it's whatever happened to Columbia way more important than
anything that happens at UCLA. But you're telling me it's
(03:03):
not a major story that pro Jewish groups showed up
with bats and said we ain't having this.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
That's a big deal now.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
I would never encourage that sort of violence, the bats,
the poles, the fireworks shot at the pro Hamas crowd.
On the other hand, I'm a gifted puppeteer, and I
wanted to introduce you to my puppet, Fuzzy Bear.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Fuzzy, what do you think. I'm glad they whooped their ass.
I wish they'd whooped more ass. Oh, Fuzzy, they beat
him down and took away their camp. I hope that
spreads all across the country.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Oh, Fuzzy, turn off his mike. We shouldn't have Fuzzy
saying things like that. Wow, Fuzzy's some sort of right winger.
I never knew that about you, Fuzzy.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Oh whoop beer ass too?
Speaker 5 (03:44):
Boy?
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Oh boy, I'm sure glow you.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
Joe Getti didn't say that because it sound like you
were in favor of vigilante justice to take care of
these pro terrorist thugs. And luckily it was your puppet.
Who really really going to get a talking to after
the show today? Oh yeah, I've already scheduled a meeting.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
I'll be there. Well, we talked about this yesterday.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
You had video footage proof of the fact that UCLA
had people saying are you a Jew? Well, then you're
not going to class? And where is the governor? Where
are the cops? Where's the FBI civil rights investigation? Like
if somebody got misgendered or not allowed into the right
bathroom or something like that, where's the freaking governor on
(04:31):
this story? I mean, that's unbelievable. And you got a
three hour battle on campus and no cops.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
What the hell? The only thing I could think about,
if I.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Was gonna be charitable, I'm I guarantee this is not
what happened. If I was gonna be super charitable, bebe
the cops are like, yeah, let's just see how this
turns out for a while, and they let the thugs
with the bats show up and do their thing for
three hours before they found their way over there.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
But I don't think that's probably what happened.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
I wonder if they had playing close kuy unseen the radio,
and so far, so good, as bad as that puppet.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
Michael.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
I know, Metal Guy has to warm up his voice
in the morning, But is California not crumbling?
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Is that his take on things?
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Or come on now, I just yeah, I don't even
know where to begin. We could start with the utter
just one hundred percent proof dishonesty of the left, all
of their howling about principles and this is hurtful and
the year of a fascist and you're gonna end Democrats
that all of that is lies, all of it. All
(05:36):
they want is power, that metal Guy, that is what
you just said. The most interesting thing, that's exactly what
I was saying about is driving work today. All that
stuff for the past decade or five years or harmalong
this has been going on was crap.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
It was all crap. I thought maybe it was real.
It was crazy, but it was real. It was just crap.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
Yeah, all of the outrage over Charlottesville from the left. Oh,
they're sitting on their hands now. NPR doesn't notice what's
going on.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
I didn't. I didn't see anything.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Can you imagine dishonesty of that sort on that scale.
It's sickening to think that human beings can that be
that dishonest? All of that microaggression stuff we've been hearing
for years in mocking, you know, and changing words. So
you don't say, you know, manhood because that's offensive to people,
So make sure you say personhood.
Speaker 6 (06:29):
You know.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
Just all these different weird things that we've been mocking
was all crap.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
It was all a weapon.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
They're perfectly fine with flat out violent violence like people
being hurt or killed or asking for people to be
perfectly fine with that as long as it's the right
side of the argument as far as it's concerned. Yeah,
they are a person who will waidhe in and throw
punch after punch, hitting people in the face. Then the
(06:56):
minute anybody lifts a finger against them, they start screaming violence, violence.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
This is unsair, this is unfair, It's all crap.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
How do you explain the lack of coverage of what
happened at UCLA last night. I feel like that's a
major moment in our country's history that the other side
has decided, you know what, nobody's doing anything about this,
We're gonna do it.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
So who were these people that showed up?
Speaker 3 (07:18):
I imagine we'll learn more about that throughout the day,
So there was there was one kid that was in
the middle of the three hour melee I saw on
Fox and Friends this morning, and he said, these weren't
college students. These guys were like thirty. These guys were
like thirty years old. So I don't know who they
were or what they were up to, but they they
(07:40):
had had enough.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
I suspect this is exactly what I predicted. What was
it a week ago or something like that, that we
would see a return of the we're not having this
on the right crowd. The you call it vigilantes if
you want counter protesters without you know, bizarrow ideas about
(08:02):
you know, race and the election or whatever. Just people
who value law and order and recognize anti semitism when
they see it and are not gonna let the little
Marxists get away with it. And it's inevitable. I mean,
it's not like, oh now, Joe Gett, he's encouraging vigilantism. No,
it's it's a question of societal mathematics. But the one
(08:23):
your puppet sounded like he was.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Maybe I don't get my puppet back out again. Tell
you what, you can't take the heat, get the f
out of the kitchen.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Oh fuzzy wow, that puppet is out of control. But
what I think he's trying to say is it's societal mathematics.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
The one flows from the other.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
You can't have Marxist a whole violent anti Semites out
of nineteen thirty six Germany. And it'll be a different
issue tomorrow that they'll be, you know, burning down buildings
and smashing glass and killing people. Maybe it will be
Black Lives matter again.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
Who knows. The normal people of.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
The society who aren't Marxists are gonna say we're not
having it. At some point in various forms, the university
chancellor UCLA has condemned horrific acts of violence.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
The big question should be how.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Does it go on for three hours before there are
any cops there?
Speaker 1 (09:22):
What is that?
Speaker 3 (09:26):
There? You go, metal guy getting more specific there, Yeah,
it's it's it's just dysfunction thirty minutes, forty five minutes.
Maybe the conversation is about reaction time. Three hours is
a choice to let it go, is what the conversation is.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
I don't know an alternative explanation that makes any sense.
That is crazy.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
We didn't hear about it. Nobody said anything. We're all
asleep at eleven o'clock at night in Los Angeles. I
don't know, I'm groping here. How long would it have
taken the cops to show up if some transgender person
was being abused and was called in?
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Yeah, I don't know. I would like to know more
about it.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
And certainly, if you're a cop, you deal with this
sort of thing in LA cop especially your Sheriff's department,
email US mail bag at armstrong and geeddy dot com,
you will of course be anonymous.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
I wonder if there were tactically well, I wonder.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
If there are tactical concerns that all right, nobody's getting
killed at this point. It's just, you know, a little
back and forth, a little head bappen now and again,
you know, get the steam out.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
This is They're twenty twenty four. When is this okay?
Speaker 3 (10:36):
Where you have giant groups of people beating each other
with bats and shooting off fireworks and the cops say, oh,
let's just see how it turns out.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
I've never heard of this before. You've introduced a new thing. Well,
I agree completely.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
So you're saying the only possible explanation is is what
a political decision to not get involved for some reason,
and I don't know what it would be.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Well, it could be the.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Sort of cowardice that characterizes Calornia institutions, where the presidents
of the universities.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Refuse to be mean.
Speaker 3 (11:06):
I don't want anybody to see me doing anything mean.
We can't enforce the rules. We can't enforce laws. We
can't even give kids bees if they don't do the work.
We've got to give a maze. This is complete spinelessness. God,
it's pathetic. We've got more on this than some of
the hilarious quotes not supposed to be hilarious from various
people like Karen Bass, the mayor of Los Angeles. We'll
(11:28):
get to that a little bit later, but we got
to start the show officially. I'm Jack Armstrong. He's Joe
Getty on this it is Wednesday. Why new month prints
new May first, the year twenty twenty four. We are
Armstrong and Getty. Life will not be a born twenty four.
We approve of this program. Oh, this is exciting. It's
just been announced that the puppet has its own show.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Oh really, come be Middays right after ours. Yeah, all right,
let's begin officially now.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
According to de FCC rules and regulations leaping into action
at mark.
Speaker 7 (11:55):
Protesters and kind of protesters went at each other with
huge wooden poles. They went at each other with pepper spray.
They went at each other with firecrackers, tossing them into crowds,
literally right in the middle of groups of people gathered.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
That's not something police don't respond to unless it's a decision.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
You know.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
I realize they're not grenades, but people are throwing explosives
at each other.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
And beating each other with giant wooden bowls, which all
of them.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
Okay, okay, Michael, I was with a puppet.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Okay, I was waiting for that one.
Speaker 3 (12:33):
That is the greatest thing ever, Michael National treasure, Michael Angelo.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
How does how does mail bag look? How much time
for it?
Speaker 3 (12:42):
But it's okay, kind I'm worried about my job, that
the puppet's gonna get our job and then we're gonna
be on the breaks. The puppet is hot, he's got
he's got buzz, he's got raz The text line four
one five nine five KFTC join just saw a KTLA
(13:05):
reporter Los Angeles UCLA campus say the scary thing was
the pro Israeli protesters had their faces covered, so that
made it extra scary for everybody.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Oh really, I'll be darned. You can't parody this stuff.
It's just too stupid. Here's your freedom loving quote of
the day.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
Loyal listener Kevin Beautiful, Sacramento, California, sent this along.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
It's from Mario Savio, who was one of the.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
Leaders of the free speech movement to nineteen sixty eight
at U SEE Berkeley. I have to say that, for me,
the deepest free speech quote is what was attributed to
Diogenes and he said, quote, the most beautiful thing in
the world is the freedom of speech.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
And those words are in me.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
They're sort of burned into my soul because for me,
free speech was not a tactic, not something to win
for political To me, free speech, freedom of speech is
something that represents the very dignity of what a human
being is. You cannot speak, I mean, that's what marks
us off. That's what marks us off from the stones
and the stars. You can speak freely. So I would
remind you, yes, he actually meant free speech, not just
(14:09):
free speech. He agreed with Yeah, he seemed to Yeah,
like any radical movement, there's a pastiche of people with
various opinions and points of view back then as now.
But the reason I like that so much is he
was a man of the left who is going on
and on and on about free speech and how it's
close to his soul. I would remind you that the
radical left will silence your speech the second they get
(14:32):
control of the situation. Just try to say a man
is not a woman in some government office in Calty, Unicornia,
for instance, Or disagree with their points of view on Israel,
or do you think shouted down or you think the
COVID came out of the lab right exactly. Yeah, the
government and Mark Zuckerberg and Stanford University will remove your
(14:53):
post for saying that. For instance, now the FBI says
that Stanford proud of yourselves.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
Mailbag Dad got this from Jeff.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
He sent it along as a twist post on some
social media. Can we please get an air drop to
Columbia University. We need nine hundred s Sasi bowls, thirteen
hundred impossible burgers on gluten free bread with sugar, vegan ketchup,
and three thousand bottles of pH nine phino electrolite water.
This is urgent sugar vegan ketchup.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
I like this one. Let's see who's this from? Scott
currently stealing our show from France? Good for you. At
the as.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
The Columbia pro Hamas protest is moved into its next
phase of taking over a campus hall.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Well it did.
Speaker 3 (15:42):
They're down to their last card tele officials. They have
a lease now they're squatters as well. It takes six
months or so? Is the course decide whether or not they.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Can be evicted?
Speaker 6 (15:52):
Now?
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Would have been clever. This is my house. What are
you talking about?
Speaker 3 (15:55):
You get the magical collision of these insane college protests
and squatter's rights. Is it bad that part of me
really wants to see this happen? That's an excellent point. Yeah,
if you if you're a protester, you get evicted immediately.
If you're a squad or it takes six months. Unlamal,
interesting idea. Greg from Detroit one of a couple of
people who said the same thing. Evidently this is kicking
(16:16):
around online. If Trump voluntarily withdrew his name from the
ballot in California because he has practically zero chance of winning,
and you know so he can't get any electoral votes anyway,
and all of Trump's voters cast ballots for RFK or
Biden's supporters. Would RFK get enough votes to win California
(16:38):
outright and thereby deny biden fifty five electoral clever move?
Why doesn't that work? Somebody might have to explain why
that isn't brilliant. Is there a reason you must be
missing something? Trump might not appreciate losing the millions of
popular votes just because of his ego, which tries his
entire existence president of the United States. Well, you're rational.
(17:02):
That is such an interesting it's an interesting idea. Oh,
we've got a charming email about loyal listener Daniel's thirteen
year old son getting even with the irs, But no
time for that.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Maybe that later.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Oh, we've got some rich stuff from you, from crazy
protesters and more from UCLA. And what all the people
are saying after the armed, pitched battle that went on
for three hours last night on the UCLA campus.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Arm Strong and Getty.
Speaker 5 (17:30):
You know what, it's unbelievable. I've called police nine times already.
They say they're handling. They're not handling anything. This is
the UCLA should be sued for this, for allowing this
to happen. For allowing these people to come here and
fight with each other. This is not acceptable, absolutely not acceptable. Everything,
everything about this is lawless.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
That's a Jewish student saying somebody should be sued. Oh,
there's gonna be lots of lawsuits. There'll be so much
litigation over this. All across the country, but particularly UCLA.
We've got document evidence of barring Jewish kids from going
to class or the library, and the college not having
anything to say about it.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Governor has nothing to say about it.
Speaker 3 (18:08):
State of California doesn't care, college doesn't care, nobody cares,
cops don't care. And on some of our city streets
in New York in particular, we've had a couple of
mini crystal knocks where the windows were smashed out of
Jewish owned businesses, delis and that sort of thing.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Yeah, so great.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
So late in the evening yesterday there was an announcement
UCLA said, all right, enough, you pro Palestinian protesters have
got to pick up your tents and go.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
This is the end of the road.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
Well before that deadline hit, a whole bunch of armed
men showed up pro Israeli protesters. Counter protesters are being
called and this is how it went this. Here's the
report on that whole story.
Speaker 7 (18:52):
Not a single police officer was anywhere to be seen
for three and a half hours. I saw two LAPD
cars at one point from one of the helicopter shots.
They left the scene, and then nobody, no California Highway Patrol,
no Los Angeles Police Department, no campus police department, nobody
(19:15):
there as these two sides fought quite literally pitched battles
for close to three hours, and only then we heard
from Mayor Karen Bass that the LAPD was responding, in
her words, immediately responding, but immediately meant three hours after
the fighting started. It was an extraordinary moment to watch
(19:36):
about that with my wife. I'll be there immediately, honey.
Speaker 3 (19:40):
In three and a half hours, about fifty guys in
masks with wooden poles.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Which poles all of them, okay, and bear spray and
fireworks among other things.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
Metal bars showed up with the idea of we're going
to drive the pro Palestinian protesters out of UCLA, and
a battle ensued, and it is amazing. You can see
you got the combination of the time zone situation. So
it was on I went to bed earlier than normal
(20:16):
or I would have caught this. I'd have been up
all night long watching it because it looks like it
was amazing to cover.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Live.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Fox had it on live, and it was on for
like eleven o'clock PM West Coast time till two in
the morning. In the East Coast, of course, it was
the middle of the night, and because the East Coast
is so focused on New York, they're getting up and
still talking about Columbia University where they cleared that out
and blah blah blah, what every The reason everybody was
tuning into the Columbia thing was they thought it was
going to look like what happened at UCLA.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
But it didn't.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
The thing that you were all excited about did happen
at UCLA, and you're not covering it for some reason.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
I find that weird.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
I mean, you want you wanted, you wanted violence, you
wanted people fighting and fireworks and beatings and stuff like that. Yeah,
that happened on the West Coast last night with not
a cop to be seen, as you just heard, for
several hours, which is I don't even know how you
describe what the hell's going on there.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
Yeah, I'd like to.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
Know more about the people, the counter protesters in who
they are and what they were thinking and the rest
of it. And as always we at the Armstrong and
Getty showed to cry, we condemn all political violence on
all sides. On the other hand, my buppet, Fuzzy, what
do you think, Fuzzy, well, who's.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
The brave revolutionary? Now you get your mask on here.
Speaker 8 (21:32):
Tough guy, y'all put October seventh, How do you like
April thirtieth?
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Bitches? Gotcha ask kick fuzzy. Fuzzy, we're on the air.
You gotta watch your language. Jeez.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
We've got this new reactionary puppet and says things that
we do not condone or agree with about, you know,
meeting meeting violence with violence and that sort of thing. No,
no vigilance, got no filter. Yeah, Fuzzy, take any how'd
you like April thirtieth?
Speaker 1 (21:58):
Bitch? Is that what he said? What he said? How
are you getting? Hitting head with the ball? How do
you like it?
Speaker 3 (22:03):
Oh, Fuzzy, Wow, I am not I'm not okay with
some of the things. Fuzzy says. Again, you can't trust
a wild animal. Everybody knows that The Armstrong and Getty
Show distances itself from the provigilante.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Fuzzy the bear is a fuzzy bear. He is a bear. Clearly.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
Yes, this is from the vice Chancellor of UCLA. Horrific
acts of violence occurred at the encampment tonight, and we
immediately called law enforcement for mutual aid support, which arrived
three hours later. Or you called too late or something.
The fire department and medical personnel are on the scene.
We are sickened by the senseless violence, and it must end.
I'm sickened by senseless violence. But who dropped the ball
(22:44):
on the cops getting there?
Speaker 1 (22:45):
And why? Writing on x or, I call it Twitter.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
The Mayor of Los Angeles, Karen Bass, condemned the violence
as absolutely abhorrent and inexcusable.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
Again, where are the cops?
Speaker 3 (22:58):
LA Police said, at the request of UCLA due to
multiple acts of violence within the large encampment. LAPD is
responding to us and okay, all this happened at like
two in the morning. It started at eleven pm. I
have a bit of a clue for you. I got
this note from alien anonymous or alnanymous. I'm not sure
read the No police at UCLA colleges are like fiefdoms.
(23:20):
Administration officials would have to actually invite and authorize city
state police to intervene, as I found out after I
was assaulted by a student as I was teaching a
class and got no support from the campus police. Tried
to get the regular cops to protect them, and then
they were told no, no, no, they can only come
on if invited. Okay, well yeah, somebody needs to have
(23:43):
to answer for this, because it's ridiculous. I mean, if
you watch the videos, if you catch any the videos
today and we'll post some of this stuff.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
It was a violent melee.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
It's not like at Columbia where you could make the argument, well,
they're peaceful. Protesters were not going to invite it. No,
this was a violent melee that needed the police there
as soon as possible. It's amazing nobody got killed or
seriously injured. I haven't heard of anybody being seriously injured
at any point. Here's a geography professor at UCLA condemned
the university over its lack of response to the counter protesters. Okay,
(24:14):
with the pro Palestinian protesters taken over the campus apparently.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
And not allowing Jewish kids to go to class.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
And calling openly for a genocide of Jews. Yeah, from
the river to the sea. Where are the Jew's gonna
go in your scenario? And Hamas is a vowed to
kill them, and you've chanted in favor of Hamas. Okay,
you can't get away with that forever. This UCLA professor said,
it gives people impunity to come on our campus as
a rand paging mob. Word is out. They can do
this repeatedly and get away with it. I'm ashamed of
(24:41):
my university.
Speaker 8 (24:42):
You're not ashamed of your university. It doesn't allow Jewish
kids to go to class. I just again, I feel
like I'm going crazy. I can't believe this is actually happening.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
The universities have gotten precisely what they had to get.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
It was inevitable. They are what they've sown.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
You cannot teach radical leftist politics and exclusively practically radical
leftism on college campuses and not get radical leftism. What's
not to get here? It's obvious to me, what's what's
the faculty UCLA? A liberal is a conservative Democrats to
Republican Democrat or Democratic socialist or Republicans.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
It's probably one hundred and fifty to one.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
So you turned out little radical leftist would be baby revolutionaries.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
When did we don't have the balls to get a
B in a class and they're going to be an
e fing revolutionary.
Speaker 6 (25:35):
This is just it.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
It's too much.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
Okay, your main issue is climate change, and you know
you believe in trensien to rights and all these different things.
But when did not letting Jewish kids go to class
become alright, that's not they're on the left, so they
let them. Is that Logenesse report Hanson also UCLA related.
(26:03):
All right, hear nothing? Play forty six for me, Michael.
This is one of the UCLA Jewish students. Again on
last night.
Speaker 6 (26:10):
When there it was there Ramadan, we didn't do anything
to them, and then this is this is what's going
on in our passover. So this again we have to
make a stop.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
We're the Jewish people. We never laid down. I'm sorry.
Speaker 6 (26:24):
We will exist on a cert for the rest of eternity.
And whoever doesn't like it, tough fluck.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
Sorry.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
Who were the fifty dudes that showed up with weapons
and decided we're taking matters into our own hands?
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Who were they? That is something.
Speaker 3 (26:43):
And I mean if I was, if I was this
geography professor that's so ashamed of his university for allowing
the pro Palestinian I mean the pro Israel protesters or
counter protesters or what do you want to call them
so we can call them throughout the show, So I'm
not struggling for a word. What do we want to
call them? The pro Israel crowd? Okay, when the pro
(27:04):
Israel crowd showed up, I would be thinking it was
some sort of conspiracy against the pro Palestinians that like
the cops didn't show up because they had this armed
band of pro Israeli protesters show up and get away
with beating on people for three hours. But I don't
know what the explanation is bro that.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
I think I could be wrong, but I doubt I am.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
I think the explanation is that you remember the Ronald
Reagan clips we played yesterday in which Reagan was saying,
this is not complicated.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
You enforce the rules.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
Your first mistake was giving these little nut jobs the
idea that they could choose which rules they follow in
which ones they don't.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
What you're seeing is the opposite of that.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
In California's current university president's almost to a man or woman,
they are exactly the opposite. If it's coming from the left,
they will let it go until the very last moment
where they have to do something, and then they will
engage in half measures. They are the anti Reagan's running
the campuses. I think it's as simple as that.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
Now Fox was covering this last night.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
I don't know how much coverage you got anywhere else,
and it's not getting near the national attention it should.
But here's more William Lagenes on the UCLA battle.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
About forty six out of the top fifty universities have
had anti Israel protests in the last two weeks, right,
And as I looked at that list last night, in
about the about one hundred and fifty arrests nationwide, about
half of those were not students at all, but outsiders
and people. UCLA knows who's in this encampment. There's a
(28:37):
check in area, you give your name and this kind
of thing. They're supposed to check you off the list
of their student.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Or not to get in there.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
Not anyone can just get in there, right, so they
know that this is infiltrated, if you will, by a
lot of individuals who are not who are not students
here at all.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
Right, So you got these fifty pro Israel protesters that
showed up, who were like all around thirty years old
according to one of the students. So they're not students
showing up to battle a bunch of people who are
also not students over the issue.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Of whether or not we're going to support Israel.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
It reminds me of the Antifa versus Proud Boyd battles
in Portland on and off in years past. How does
the powerful left not understand if you leave a vacuum
at some point the other side is going to show
up with bats and say, all right, I guess we'll
try to do something about it.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
Maybe I let the bear answer.
Speaker 8 (29:36):
If that's what it takes to rest restore law and orders,
so be it.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
Does the bear drink that was remarkably restrained fuzzy, and
we appreciate it. The bear sometimes seeks out fermented bearries, yes,
just to relax in the evening.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
Puppets are human beings too, the bear man, that's a
throwback clip. The bear is a reactionary.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
The bear has strong feelings. The bear voted for Nixon.
That is clearly true.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
All right, So.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
We've got Katie's headlines always stay with us. Yeah, we
got a number of texts saying, look for this being
portrayed through the day, that the pro Israeli people were violent,
the anti war crowd was peaceful. So a peaceful protest
(30:27):
was attacked by a violent pro Israeli mob. Leaving out,
of course, the fact that Jewish students are not being
allowed to go to class, being physically barred from getting
into the library UCLA, and nobody was doing anything about it.
Julie just dropped us notes said call them anti Hamas protesters.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
I think that's probably legit.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
Yeah, Yeah, we'll have a lot more on this, and
we've got to at some point in the show get
to it made the rounds on social media, but if
you didn't catch it, there's a girl, what was he
at Columbia given a speech about how they need food
and water that is just hilarious. And more hilarious, that
is her background, which is just delightful and fits in
with the whole college fraud thing that is going on
(31:09):
at certain levels, these ridiculous degrees.
Speaker 1 (31:13):
It's just insane.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
All right, First, let's figure out who's reporting what. It's
the lead story with Katie Green.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
Katie thank you guys. From NBC News.
Speaker 9 (31:23):
Police respond to violent clashes at UCLA. Hundreds arrested after
occupied Columbia.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
Building is cleared.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
Well, what a misrepresentation of the story. A three hour
violent battle and then the police show up.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
What's going on there?
Speaker 9 (31:41):
From the Associated Press, Blinken tells Israeli hostage families strong
proposal on the table and urges Hamas to accept it.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (31:51):
I did a deep dive into this last night. This
is ridiculous. Israel has offered, you know, prisoner exchanges of
seven hundred to one, I mean, just just given everything
and gotten very very little in return, and Hamas just
keeps turning it down. They're not going to make a deal.
It's not in their interests to make a deal, Hammas,
(32:14):
I mean.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
From ABC News.
Speaker 9 (32:17):
Trump to swing through two battleground states for first time
since start of criminal.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
Hush money trial.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
Oh really, are they on a pause or is he
doing it on the weekend? What's the story there?
Speaker 9 (32:31):
He is going to be back on the campaign trail today.
Speaker 1 (32:35):
He doesn't have to be in court. I'm I suspect
they're taking a break. Trials office, you'll take a breakout
because a juror has a dentist appointment or something like that,
gon't you.
Speaker 9 (32:44):
From market Watch, consumer confidence drops to twenty one month
low due to worries about food and gas prices.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
Woof, my consumer confidence wasn't that high in the last
twenty one months, but it's at almost.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Two year low. Bad news for the ancient senile president.
Speaker 9 (33:04):
From The New York Times, eight daily newspapers sue Open
AI and Microsoft over artificial intelligence.
Speaker 6 (33:12):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
I saw this headline. I was going to look into it.
I think this is another one of those good luck battles.
I mean, yeah, it's certainly a brand new area of
the law. It's like the AI goes out and they read,
quote unquote everything the New York Times was printed and
then repackage it and sell it to you.
Speaker 1 (33:30):
That's plagiarism. We'll have to talk about this more later.
Speaker 9 (33:33):
And speaking of AI, from Metro UK, AI priest defract
after taking confession and saying that babies could be baptized
in gatorade.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
All right, I don't even know what to do with that.
It's got electrolytes. Yeah, I read about that.
Speaker 3 (33:52):
It's they tried to create an AI priest and like
everything AI, he went nuts.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
And went like way beyond the bounce supposed to be.
Speaker 9 (34:00):
Doing from USA today, man accused of kicking bison in
alcohol related incident in yellow Park or Yellowstone Park.
Speaker 3 (34:11):
Bison kicker alcohol time carries its own punishment.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
Doesn't that let him kick the bison?
Speaker 3 (34:17):
And just that's where the police should stand back and
just let it work itself out.
Speaker 9 (34:22):
And finally the Babylon b Biden drops support for pro
Palestine protesters after realizing how bad their hair smells.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
Wow hair sniff and rebound or going back to that story.
Speaker 3 (34:39):
Boy, the Biden administration has got to be figuring out
how do we get on the right side of this
whole thing nationwide and come out ahead? Then not handling
it well so far? And again, where was the governor
of California over the last couple of days? Where is
he today? On violent riots at the UCLA? Yeah, yeah,
it's interesting monitoring email and we have many requests for
(35:03):
a Fuzzy the reactionary bear T shirt.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Then we have one from Aaron saying Joe, you're promoting violence.
Well the bear was.
Speaker 3 (35:14):
I'll be back, but turning off for today, very disappointed.
Here's my point, Aaron, I think watching lawlessness long enough
gives decent people the urge to do something about it.
Got to recognize that that's just the truth.
