Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (01:35):
Hello, everyone, Welcome to episode three sixty nine of Stun
the nine. But tonight it's Stude, Doug and Rob Rob
the unpaid producer, Doug the Shard probably one of our
top fans and guests and owner of Gear for Grunts,
one of our sponsors. So we've got we're on tonight

(01:56):
and welcome guys. Good to see you.

Speaker 2 (01:59):
But love you guys.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
Yeah, uh do you both.

Speaker 3 (02:07):
I'm fighting some kind and flame head cold hanging in there.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
Other than that, everything's nominal. How about you, guys?

Speaker 1 (02:18):
Good you're a little broken up. I got you. Yeah,
don't don't be getting sick on us. Yeah, bringing back
the COVID.

Speaker 4 (02:26):
The only thing I'm fighting the.

Speaker 3 (02:27):
Heat, ig I plague, three I plate, three shots, family
met failing.

Speaker 2 (02:35):
It's not keeping me well.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
How how was the heat in the Arkansas studio? Uh?

Speaker 4 (02:41):
It has been in the nineties lately, with the heat
in decks and the triple digits. Uh. And uh, the
humidity is just outrageous. I mean in the mornings it's
like ninety three humidity.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
So yeah, that's Texas weather. It's that's for Doug. The
Doug's like that, He's like, that's a cool breeze day, and.

Speaker 2 (03:05):
That's pretty much. It's the same here.

Speaker 1 (03:08):
Rob.

Speaker 3 (03:08):
We actually had rain today, so that's pretty cool, but
it just makes it more humid.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
So but yeah, yeah, well yeah, so well we're gonna
talk tonight. A lot of current events. Obviously a lot
happening the last couple of days between UH Congress and
trials and B two bombers July fourth, you name it.

(03:35):
But you did mention something, Doug that made me think
I wanted to ask about the I saw a report
the other day that there was a Yelle study of
eight hundred people who took the Maderna and Pfizer shots,
the one that did the M and r A modification,
and they have found that the thing that it introduced,

(03:56):
what they call a spike protein, which is supposed to
wear out of the body, which is why people got boosters.
I guess, don't quote me on that was supposed to
go away is not only not going away, but they're
increasing and they're replicating within the body. So now people
are trying to find medications and things to help get

(04:17):
rid of spike proteins out of their system because there's
no way to get rid of them. Have you guys,
heard about this.

Speaker 4 (04:24):
I have, I have, but I mean, you know the
old saying pharmaceuticals don't don't create cures, they create customers, right,
So I'm sure both of those companies will will come
out with us a solution that you can take that
will help reduce that spike protein that they created.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
Well, in the IT world, right, people just want to
know who created all the computer viruses, like the computer
antivirus companies like you know, that's that's you do it.
But yeah, so business. Yeah, so sometimes that you're sick,
it made me think of this, or potentially coming sick
made me think of it. And the fact that you know,
these people got these shots and obviously we know it

(05:04):
didn't go through long term study and all that stuff,
which was why a lot of people had issue with it.
They rushed it so fast. But now they're finding these
spike proteins, are saying, so people are looking for like
homeopathic and natural like remedies, and I guess there's some
people out there selling things of of you know, this
get rid of spike proteins and all that stuff. So
they're either capitalizing on it and trying to smell sell

(05:28):
snake oil or you know, maybe it's a real thing.
But if you got the Johnson Johnson Maderna or not
Johnson Johnson Maderna or Pfizer, you may have some extra
spike proteins. I don't know what that means. Means your
hair spikes. I don't know if that means your hair loses.
I'm not sure what the the outward ramifications are. But yeah,

(05:50):
it's pretty disturbing, but sadly something I think everyone thought
was gonna come hot. Doug, would you say that was
you're tied to the medical I.

Speaker 5 (06:01):
Made a prediction, Yeah, I made I made a prediction
that the people who didn't get shots, you know, they
pure bloods, they would be in demand.

Speaker 3 (06:11):
After the problems started to arise with the shots. You know,
the same people who were vilified for not being part,
you know, conforming and getting in line and getting the shots.
Now those you know, now they might find oh, well,
if you get an if your type A, well you know,
you can take a whatever from someone who didn't get it.
Just a complete conspiracy theory on my part, and then
they'll then you'll be a hero. Then you'll be hated

(06:34):
if you don't give your blood up for this.

Speaker 2 (06:35):
So I don't know.

Speaker 1 (06:38):
They'll go to pure bloods to try to dilute their
spike protein blood.

Speaker 4 (06:45):
Exactly exactly, so they're gonna hunt us down.

Speaker 3 (06:52):
Pure blood sounds like sounds like that movie to the
Omega Man with Charlton Heston, like in nineteen seventy one
or something. You know, he immune to some biological thing
and he was the he was the last man or something, And.

Speaker 1 (07:05):
It sounds very much like some yeah, some nineteen seventies
or eighties like science fiction movie of like The Last
of the pure Bloods. You made spike but you can't,
but you can't the people with spike proteins.

Speaker 6 (07:22):
Yeah, it'll turn you into a Zeno zero or something. Yeah,
that's what reminds me of more xenomorph zeno.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
Yeah. I did read that.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
I heard about that, and that's just terrible. That's just
a mess.

Speaker 1 (07:40):
Yeah, hopefully they can find some of those people, but
like Rob said, they'll probably it probably fires him, like
we've got it for thirty nine ninety nine, get rid
of your spikes. Yeah, we break the spiked off your proteins.

Speaker 4 (07:54):
Covered by your interest company.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
And you know, yeah, that's it. But uh, yeah, a
lot a lot going on guys. Obviously over the last week.
I mean, you know, you know, it's fun thing President
Trump back. You know, he's always talked about winning and
uh and you know he he got elected January twentieth.
Then a lot of things started happening. People are like, wow,

(08:17):
we're just winning NonStop, one NonStop. But a lot of
those people were people on the right. But in the
last week, even people on the left are like, man,
you can't deny it. The guy took took out Iran's
nuclear capability like flawlessly, like you know, not a plane
put up, not a shot fired out as B two's

(08:38):
just putting a crazy amount of ordnance totally, you know,
destroyed everything, got them to come to peace, got Congo
and uh was it Nigeria? I think Congo and Uganda
and Uganda to come to peace, have a peace treaty.
You know. It's just all this stuff. Now the big

(08:58):
beautiful bill, yeah, has passed and he'll be signed. I mean,
it's this guy's.

Speaker 4 (09:04):
On a roll.

Speaker 2 (09:06):
He's on fire.

Speaker 1 (09:08):
Even the left even see it ends like you can't
deny it, rob what are some There's some other stuff
too that people don't even seem because of just the
bills taken over.

Speaker 4 (09:17):
The job job numbers are you know, going through the
roof unemployment is down. I mean, there's there's a couple
of things in there. You know that the the border
border crossings have like zeroed almost. I mean we went
from thousands and thousands per day to like one or

(09:38):
two per day. And you know, you you can't take
those numbers and look at them and go, oh, well, uh,
it's you know, it's not Trump. It's something other than Trump.
I mean, the the sheer and and I said this
as soon as Biden got in and the numbers started
ramping up. I said, it wasn't so much the policy
from Trumps as much as it was the fear by

(10:02):
people who normally cross illegally. They knew under the first
administration if they came across illegally, they were going to
get picked up and sent right back. The remain in
Mexico was there. They just knew that was gonna happen.
Under Biden, there was no repercussions. They didn't have to
worry about anything. They could just come across. They were
given a cell phone and some hotel room and some

(10:24):
cash and and sent along their way. There was there
was no fear of anything. So when Trump came back in,
everybody went, oh shit, I don't think we can cross again,
you know, and we didn't need Congress like Biden lied
and said, uh, you know, now do we need immigration
to form? Absolutely, we need Congress to do something. We

(10:45):
need them to get off their butts and do something.
But just the sheer fear that that his policies put
have reduced those crossings to almost nothing.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
Right what it was, Yeah, yeah, I think may well
may They had none released into the country, and the
Gune number just came out of what they know came across.
It was like, you know, not even not released, but
just came across. And it was just yes, crazy low
that they know. I mean that it came across, and
now we have Alligator Alcatraz.

Speaker 2 (11:18):
I was kind of say, that's another fear factor. Rob
I was going to bring that up.

Speaker 3 (11:21):
That's another, you know, element of that intimidation of hey,
I don't want to go there.

Speaker 1 (11:25):
You know, they should make Joe Rogan the warden Alligator
Alcatraz because you mentioned they should be like have competition,
like you know reality TV competition of if you want
to be released and you want another chance. You know,
you're going to compete, and he's going to come up
with all these crazy things to do. Right.

Speaker 4 (11:45):
So, well, I'm sure he's got some some input from others,
but I mean just the the way he's been getting
around things. Right. So, a lot of people look at
the changing of the Gulf of Mexico to the Golf
of America, and what they don't realize was the whole
purpose was Biden had put things in that stops drilling
in the Gulf of Mexico, and it specifically said Gulf

(12:06):
of Mexico. So by changing the name, he no longer
has to abide by that, and he can just drill
in the Gulf of America.

Speaker 1 (12:13):
So people are.

Speaker 4 (12:13):
Getting always just being an ass. No, he did it
to get around what was put in place before. And
so by putting in this place in Florida, he didn't
have to ship people off to El Salvador. He can
ship them to Florida and they're still on US soil,
and these activist judges can't say shit, yeah.

Speaker 1 (12:32):
Just holding them until they get processed through and all.
And it's in a place that unlike New Orleans, New Orleans,
they're not going to escape but if they do, the
chances of making it are very very slim. You know.
It's it's I think, I don't know if there's a
road that goes to it, if it's only.

Speaker 4 (12:50):
Funny one road in there.

Speaker 2 (12:53):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (12:53):
Yeah, And I'm sure that they're keeping eye it, but yeah,
I mean it's just uh And then you know, well,
you got July fourth, two hundred and forty ninth Birthday
of America tomorrow, right, we just had the two hundred
and fiftieth birthday, Army Birthday along with Flag Day, right
because that happened a year before the country was founded,
So we just had that at the parade. You know,

(13:15):
you had this no Kings protest that happened that were
you know, a fizzle at best. You know, there's a
lot of hype because the media pushes it, but you know,
they were going to disrupt the parade in d C.
They were going to do all the stuff. You didn't
hear anything about it. And in fact, you know, it's
so funny when you look back at at what the

(13:35):
media covers and it even us, right, we we know this,
but you still can't help but get skewed by you know,
prior to the the Iran that you know the bombings
and Iran and the B two bombings. Right, it was
all about the anti ice protests and the riots in
LA and Portland. And then you started seeing, oh, they're
popping up in other cities. There's they're in Austin a

(13:57):
little bit here, but those were there were really not
much of anything, but the media was pumping up like
let's go in nationwide. And then we sent a couple
of decoy bombers one way and seven the other way,
and you didn't hear about another damn riot at all.
Like people just heard yesterday that the one hundred and
fifty the National Guard are going off of back duty
back to the state and people are like, oh, they

(14:19):
were still deployed. Like it it overnight. Everyone forgot and
did not care about some some some people riding in
downtown LA that fell off the national scope. So no
one cared about it or knew about it anymore. And uh,
it's amazing how quick you can shift what people what

(14:41):
what people are experts on on social media and what
they know about just by what's pushed out across the airwaves.

Speaker 4 (14:50):
Well, part of part of that is that the short
attention span of most people, right, I mean, people have,
especially Americans, We've got an intention span of you know,
of a gnat. The other part of that is a
good portion of people have started realizing, you know, what
you're seeing in the media is not as important about
what you're not seeing. Right, So most people now that

(15:11):
look at CNN will also go look at Fox, will
also go you know, research a little bit more and
start getting all this more information. Plus with more and
more podcasts, you know, I mean Joe Rogan has been
around for a while, that the Tim Poole and several
others like that, you know, even us, we're actually reporting

(15:32):
on the things that people want to hear and not selectively,
you know, cherry picking and only giving you a slice
and giving you know, the opinions that the media has become.

Speaker 1 (15:43):
Yeah. Yeah, And you think the media would learn right
after CNN had to pay had had to pay Sandman,
and after CNN had to pay Trump and all that stuff,
and now you've got paramount CBS having to pay pop
possibly up to thirty million to them, I mean, just
for how they did the Kamala interview. I mean, you
think that maybe someone along the line will be like,

(16:04):
maybe we should just report the news and quit trying
to skew it and uh and that, because it's it's
costing them a lot of money for just pushing the
whatever narrative the left they think wants to hear or
is going to gain viewers. I mean it just I mean,
the the the trust in the media. I think Congress

(16:24):
is liked more and that's that's sounds amazing.

Speaker 3 (16:27):
Yeah, well they did it to themselves. I mean they've
been doing it for decades. I mean I remember my
parents complaining about the news, you know, forty forty five
years ago, and that, you know, I maybe my dad
was still pissed at Walter Kronicite about the whole Vietnam
was a draw thing.

Speaker 2 (16:42):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (16:43):
But anyway, they made that call back in sixty eight.
But but yeah, I've always you know, and then I
look back to guys, I remember my elementary school still
being having a slant to it. If you look back
and you think about some things your teacher said and
stuff like that, it was pretty you know, the back

(17:05):
when I was in the fifth grade, the icebergs.

Speaker 2 (17:08):
No, it was a new ice age.

Speaker 3 (17:09):
We're all going to freeze, there'd be no gas. I
would never be able to drive a car. And they
were serious, Now why are you why are you telling
eleven year old kids and stuff and anyway whatever, But
you know, all this bleak outlook. But so it's nothing new.
But I'm just glad it's it's being called upon more because,
as you said, there's other there's other media that can
provide differing views and other information.

Speaker 1 (17:32):
Right. Well, the other day we had this pole come out, right,
and it goes along with what people believe. So they
had a pole come out about being you know, patriot,
proud to be an American. And and of the people
they polled, you know, of those that identify as Republicans
say right now, they're they're extremely or very proud to
be America, which is awesome. Right, they kind of come

(17:52):
leading up to July fourth, so on and so forth.
Democrats are at thirty six percent. Independents say it's fifty three,
but Democrats are thirty six. And if you go back
and they do this poll every year, and if you
go back and look at these polls during Biden's years
or Obama's years or whatever, Republicans are still very patriotic,

(18:14):
like we're not. The Republicans aren't.

Speaker 2 (18:16):
It's not conditional.

Speaker 1 (18:18):
Whoever's in charge, right, But now when it was the
last time it was done during Biden's time, you know,
I forget where it was. But the Democrats were you know,
I think the Democrats were at sixty two percent. So
they were at sixty two in twenty twenty four, in
twenty twenty three they were fifty five, fifty two, twenty

(18:39):
twenty one, sixty two. So they've been running fifty to
sixty for the last four or five years, and now
they're at thirty six percent. Where Republicans the lowest they've
been is eighty four percent. In twenty twenty two, they've
been ninety ninety two, and ninety two is one of
the you know, one of the lowest ones. I mean,

(19:01):
it doesn't matter who's in charge. You're so proud for
this country because leaders come and go right.

Speaker 4 (19:06):
Well, conservative conservatives see the world the way it is, right,
I mean, they understand it, and most liberals see what
they want the world to be, and they can't accept
what it is and they want to change it. The
other thing with that is is conservatives are more likely
to serve in the military. Right, and many of us
have seen places other countries that we know we don't

(19:28):
want to go to rather than here, and we know
just how how much better it is here than somewhere else. Right,
So there's a lot of a lot of play in that,
you know, a lot of at play in that with conservatives.

Speaker 1 (19:41):
I think, well, when you talk about the media, right,
let's talk about this bombing in Iran, right, that happened.
You know, they came out with this initial report got
leaked with low confidence that you know, they weren't sure
how much damage had got done. We all know the
first reportion of battlefield are always wrong, right, and you
know we didn't we don't have people, we don't have

(20:02):
censors down there, so you know, all they knew from
what they saw from the sky, nobody's willing to put
on you know, on paper within you know, twelve hours.
That yeah, we totally wiped it out until they could
get you know, some better intelligence through you know, sigant
and human on the ground or whatever. And boy, they
jumped all over it. Look, it wasn't that big, and

(20:23):
you know, it wasn't that, it wasn't effective and all
that kind of stuff. You put fourteen thirty thousand pound
bombs in a hole two to three hundred feet down
a shaft. You know it's uh, it's doing damage. You
don't see it in surprised more of the mountain cave in.
But I guarantee you, I mean, it didn't it dig
a rocket scientist to to sit there and know that

(20:45):
it did what especially when you saw the air footage
of the holes it went through, and it just wo
you know they how many they pumped into there. But
you know, the media jumped all over that, like, look,
it wasn't that big of it. It wasn't that good.
And Congress, you know, the left side of Congress, I'm
doing it well. Now the reports are coming out. Iran
came out and said, you know, in the last day
or two that you know, they obliterated it, like they've

(21:07):
set us way back and that kind of stuff. Everyone's
come out and set it all the different. You know,
Israeli massade is probably on the ground. We know they.

Speaker 2 (21:13):
Were probably in the hole, probably.

Speaker 3 (21:15):
In the holes.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
Yeah they were. They were probably right there cooking marshmallows
on the fire coming out of it and uh, now
it's coming out, but you don't hear anything then, you know,
the mean, he's not reporting on it. Right, Oh, it's
not the narrative.

Speaker 3 (21:29):
Yeah, it's not validating and and I think that sent
that article to you both. But there was this article
even back in the first Gold Goal for Troy that
when they would do these overhead satellite images, they weren't
counting Iraqi tank kills unless the turret was off. So
it's this false impression of like an overhead trying to

(21:49):
do bda from you know, a satellite, especially something that
you know went underground.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
They're just completely wrong.

Speaker 3 (21:55):
I guess they're expecting something, you know, completely oblivious to
have no imagination, Well what happened underground?

Speaker 2 (22:01):
You know, just back Yeah, it can't.

Speaker 3 (22:04):
And just like they can't you know, thirty four years ago,
I can't imagine a T seventy two being destroyed unless
the turrets popped.

Speaker 2 (22:11):
Now, the damn kinetic ground will go right through.

Speaker 3 (22:13):
The thing and everything inside is no longer with us.

Speaker 4 (22:17):
And it's just the media, the media tripling down, just
like Hollywood's tripling down. I just don't understand. But one
of the things that we are seeing is you're seeing
fewer and fewer leaks. And the good thing is when
there are leaks, they're finding them and they're punishing them. Right,
so you're you're seeing that which which you didn't really

(22:37):
see before. Where I mean, we still don't know who
leaked the Dobs decision, right, we still don't know that.
I don't know how we don't know that. But I
think what this administration, you know, because he had that
four year gap and he had chance to learn, I
think they're probably honeypotting a lot of these things.

Speaker 2 (22:55):
That's what I said that.

Speaker 4 (22:57):
Yeah, so they're they're probably catching a lot of these
people with some honeypots. And the CNN I wouldn't wouldn't
doubt if that was a honeypot.

Speaker 1 (23:05):
So yeah, you got to think that they probably leak
some stuff to certain people as they zero in on
just to see what comes out so they know where
it goes. But yeah, so then you know one question
I had, So we got this this bill that was
passed today, you know, it's getting signed by the President tomorrow,
which you know, I know, you guys felt I was

(23:27):
really doubtful that it was going to get through the
House without you know, it just seemed like there were
a lot of holdouts and stuff. But you know, I
saw this thing that Jeffreys went on Minority you know,
Minority leader went on at four in the morning and
started talking and talked to about one point thirty and
broke a record, but just to hold it up. And

(23:47):
I kind of thought today when I saw that, I
was like, these guys don't get it. That's why America
hates Congress. Like everyone knew the votes were there, it's
going to get through. It's like you're having an eff
and tantry like a baby, like a toddler. It's like
it's gonna go through. You're holding up all these not
just the elected representatives, all their staffers, the people that

(24:10):
support the House right all the the you know, the
sergeant arms and all the administrative staff everything else. No
one can go home until it shuts down. Same with
the Senate, the senatece and session. There's a lot of
support people that have to work so here to July third,
and you're gonna you're gonna make this go all day
when you know that it's gonna get through. And I
just like, I wonder how many people that turned sour

(24:34):
against either Congress or the Democrats even more, because it's like, dude,
they got the votes, Like I mean, it just I
think they just don't get it somehow winning success.

Speaker 3 (24:45):
And they kind of played into Trump's hands because if
he signs it tomorrow on Independence Day, it just makes it.

Speaker 2 (24:51):
More, you know, more, a bigger win for Trump.

Speaker 3 (24:55):
Oh it's July fourth, Hey, two hundred forty nine years
Oh and I just signed it no auto.

Speaker 2 (24:59):
Pen my hand, you know, and right, and you'll hold
it up auto pin free signature here.

Speaker 3 (25:05):
So yeah, that's what I was thinking of, Like to
your point, Tree, Yeah, they drag it, but I think
it almost plays right.

Speaker 2 (25:10):
And look, I'll take advantage of this.

Speaker 3 (25:11):
Now it's going to be bigger and wow, what a
thing to do on July fourth.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
If he doesn't, he's shocked.

Speaker 4 (25:18):
I think he is some of us, some of us tribalism, right,
I mean, so they have to right, so they have
to for their for their own constituents. And one of
the things I anytime I see whether it's a Jeffreys
or anybody get up and start making a name for themselves,
the first thing I go do with is look and
see when that person's up for reelection. And nine times
out of ten they're coming up in the next cycle
for reelection. So they're trying to try to get their face. See,

(25:40):
you know Josh Holly a Republican, he's he's infamous for this.
You'll see him pop up and you know, start making
making a lot of noise, and you know he's up
for reelection. I'm I'm not a huge fan of these
these big bills right now. I want single line item
things because because then you get to see how people
really vote, right, Like I always use the example money

(26:03):
for Israel. Let's see who in Congress on both sides
of the aisle, who approves and who doesn't? Right, call
him out, because that's the surest way you're gonna get
to a defining thing that that their constituents can see
that they do or do not approve of right or
do not vote for the other thing. With this big,

(26:24):
beautiful bill, I think it's one of those necessary evils. Right,
He's got a very short period of time. We've talked
about on the show before how conservatives don't show what
for midterms. So Trump is trying to take whatever he
can get in the quickest amount of time that he
can get it. Now, you're not gonna get everything. You're
not gonna get everything you want. Is that bill perfect?

Speaker 1 (26:46):
No?

Speaker 4 (26:46):
Well, is any Bill perfect. No, they're full of a
whole bunch of other crap that's in there. But I
think he was pushing so hard for this because he
knows he's up against that two year clock and he's
got to get as much And this doesn't go into
effect until January anyway, so he can sign it tomorrow.
None of the stuff in there goes into effect until January.

(27:06):
So he's trying to get as much done in the
quickest amount of time as he can. And the whole
purpose for Congress is not to get everything that you want.
It's to be able to, you know, negotiate and concede
on certain things. The thought should always be what's best
for the American people, not what's good for me, right,

(27:27):
not what's good for you know.

Speaker 1 (27:29):
I always say that they're there just for their constituents,
But the reality is a voice for the American people.
This isn't the Congress, This isn't the Continental Congress of
seventeen seventy six. It is not. It is that if
you're not representing just your state, right they you know,
their votes and what they do has a national effect,

(27:50):
and they at it. But a lot of them will,
right though obviously That's where a lot of the port
comes from. Right. They worry about their own you know,
getting making sure that military base stays open and their
ships get there in their state for jobs and that
kind of stuff. But you know, yes, they should try
to make sure their state's taken care of. They are
representing their state, but they're at a national level, they're

(28:12):
representing what's best for the entire country. You know, there
are people I've read some of this bill and understand
what's in it, but you know, there are Democrats that
are better, you know that that know that their area
is going to benefit from this, and know that there's
parts of bill that are really good, but they are
absolutely not allowed to vote for it. Right.

Speaker 4 (28:29):
Well, Tulci Gabbert, I don't know if you've ever watched
her on Joe Rogan. She went in there and explained
exactly how it works. Her first day in Congress. They
were all on the floor of Republicans and Democrats and all,
you know, laughing and joking, shaking hands and everything. And
then they went into their parties and and she said
that they flat out told them, I don't care if
you like the bill, if it's a Republican proposed bill,

(28:50):
you will vote no against it. You will vote no
and you will not vote vote for it if it's
put forth by a Republican And that's the tribalism that
they get into and they.

Speaker 2 (28:59):
Don't the peblical parties are evil. Yeah, because of that.

Speaker 3 (29:05):
Yeah, that's why George Washington didn't want political parties, because
you're smart enough to because they're going to be more
loyal to their group than the country.

Speaker 2 (29:12):
The country what written large.

Speaker 1 (29:14):
Because because if that person doesn't go along with it,
then they're not getting on any committee. They're not getting
shown any favors. They're not going to get supported by
that whatever the National Committee is, Democrat, Republican National Committee.
They're not going to get you know, endorsements. When it
comes time for real life, they're going to be a
one term or done and they're just you know, they're
and they're just going to be a vote right, So

(29:36):
that's part of that compromise, like you know, but but
for them to go it's this way, if it's it's
it's proposed by the other side, then you have to
vote against it. It's taking it to the extreme right.
It's it's uh, it's like you know, America. They they
love to tout bipartisans biparticism when like one or two people,

(29:56):
like for example, the Dems will say, look, two Republicans
voted against this budget. We had a bipartisan support. Now
you had two people that were you know, could question
it was like you know, but they tout that because
they know, and the Republicans do it too when they
do actually have maybe a bipartisan sponsored bill right there
is a Republican Democrat both sponsoring and co sponsoring it,

(30:18):
or they get multiple votes of those sides, they love
to tout that because that's what the American people want.
They don't want the tribalism. So in one part they
know that's what's popular. People want you to vote regardless
of what letters behind your name. But they still do it.
And again they try to tout when one person switches
over innate look as a bipartisan effort. That's not dude,

(30:41):
it's you got a rhino or you got someone that
you know, you got another lis Cheney or something like that,
like it's not a Republican just because she because that's
what they called the Jan six committee. It was a
bipartisan committee. It's like you're kidding right now.

Speaker 3 (30:54):
But I would, at least for me, I would love
someone who is a one termer because they're punished because
they're not a complete conformist. I mean, I think if
the world worked right, if I got elected, and you know,
I don't want to be on a committee if I
have to sell my soul anymore than I want to
be on my HOA board right now, you know you'd
have to drag me kicking and screaming, because you know

(31:17):
I don't. I just don't want to do that. You know,
I think you should be like a reluctant leader. Usually
those are the best, right because you're you know, you've
been somehow someone's convinced you over enough time or whatever,
you should Troy, you should do this, because I know
you don't want to because you're you know, you're concerned
about not being you know, power mad and make sure

(31:38):
you're doing it for the right reason all you know,
and that's exactly why you should be this.

Speaker 2 (31:41):
You know that that kind of thing. But to you know,
let's just say you won't get a committee.

Speaker 3 (31:45):
But I'm like, man, that's if that's the price for
doing the right thing, fine, be one and done. And
what for the rest of your life you have what
the Golden medical package or whatever you get.

Speaker 2 (31:54):
Would they shouldn't have that either. But I'm like, well
that's you know if people.

Speaker 4 (32:00):
Well there's way around that too, go ahead, try No.

Speaker 1 (32:04):
Is that they need term limits, right, that's the bottom line.
They amen, and.

Speaker 3 (32:08):
They need something else to do with their lives, like
the Continental Congress.

Speaker 2 (32:11):
They have lives.

Speaker 1 (32:12):
Many Yeah, they there's a reason why Washington went back
to Mount Vernon too, because and it set the precedents
for the most part, right for the kind for the
president your presidency. But you know, until Congress actually passed
the law. But you know it is they should have
term limits where where you go back to you know,
you go up, you do your civil service essentially what

(32:33):
it is, right, you're doing your your civil service, whether
it's you know, uh, being on the school board or
being a cop or doing or you know whatever volunteer fireman,
you're doing your public service. You just happen to be
an elected representative and you do three terms, right or
two turn depending up what what house you're in, and
then you go back and you roll back into the society.

(32:55):
Maybe you help advise the next person or whatever. But
these these thirty forty year you know, take Biden for example,
right of college, got into it, never worked a real job,
did that their whole life, his whole life. And then
when I mean sick, how do you talk about business?
How do you make laws and talk about what it
takes to effect business and lead people? You haven't led

(33:17):
jack shitt Nope, you know you especially if you go
right out of college being a congressional intern or something
and work your way into Congress get elected. It's like
someone being in academia. It's like going to college and
being a professor, being an academia in their whole life, and
they're going to tell you what it's like in the
real world. You know, that's they're going to make your
decisions about how to operate your business, to run your life,

(33:39):
when all they've done is lived in the sterile world
of college books.

Speaker 4 (33:44):
Well, I like what Marjorie Taylor Green did her first
couple of years in Congress, where she was like not
put on board. I mean, she's kind of batshit crazy,
but she was not put on specific committees. So what
she did was she had all this free time. So
if the way a lot of these votes happen and
people don't see this, right, So people are either voting
by proxy or they can just kind of send in

(34:07):
their votes ahead of time and they just kind of
run through the through the gambit of stuff that they're
going to pass. Right Well, Marjorie Taylor would sit down
in the seats and would call for a vote and
would say, I want everybody here to vote for it.
On every bill that came through, and so they would
have to come to the chamber and vote, and people

(34:27):
started getting pissed off because she had all this free
time and she was forcing votes on everything, and they're like,
we got to give this willing something to do. So
they started putting their own committees. Yeah, so there's waiting
around it, and I wish more people would do that.

Speaker 1 (34:44):
Right right, Yeah, it's the bottom lay. We need term
limits that that would make this country. And if you know,
you could do it where they get somewhere between you know,
six and twelve years depending on what to which one
they were in and uh, and then they're out and
you're gonna get new ideas, new blood. And also but

(35:06):
you get in these areas that are solid blue or
even solid red, and you know, It's why that's why
I tell people, you know, you know, the Devil himself
could have moved to New York like Hillary did and
run for Senate and win, because you know, you just
got to have a D after your name. She wasn't
New York or anything, bought a house in Westchester. It's
like boom right now representing New York. She wouldn't. She

(35:27):
didn't know New York from anything. But you know, and
then that's why you see Barbara Boxer and and all
these others that just Nancy Pelosi. They get in these
areas and no one's going to vote against them, and uh,
and you know they're just going to accumulate this power.
Yet they are completely out of touch with what their
constituents or even just the citizens of their of their

(35:48):
state even care about or want or need or anything.

Speaker 4 (35:52):
But yeah, well, Anna Pauline a Luna, who we've had
on the show before, yep, and I think by Byron
Donald's and one or two out of Florida signed a
commitment to their constituents that they would do two elections
and then they would leave. Now I know Byron is
holding up to that because he's leaving and running for
the governor of Florida. Now, I'll have to see what
Annapoline is going to do, but we should start forcing

(36:15):
our representatives to do those kinds of commitments. So you're
going to do too, And then you got to go,
we're not sitting there. We're not going to pay for
you to be up in Washington for the rest of
your life.

Speaker 2 (36:24):
Your life to die.

Speaker 4 (36:27):
The other way around that is to get your states
to say, you know, get your governors to say, all right,
we're passing a law from our state that our representatives
can do two terms and two terms only. Then you
don't have to worry about the federal government. You can
do that at the state level. I don't know if
they can or not, but that's a way to try
to push it.

Speaker 2 (36:46):
I'm the federal stuff. Yeah, I don't know if that
will override.

Speaker 1 (36:54):
Yeah, a federal thing, but I like the letter commitment
and then you just call on that they don't go
by it.

Speaker 2 (37:01):
Yeah, it's just loc and loc Yeah, absolutely.

Speaker 1 (37:05):
No, it's uh, that's definitely something. But you know, again,
watching Jeffers talk and this and that and everything like that,
it's like they just still don't get it right. That's
that's In fact, I saw a couple of statements today
that there were anonymously a couple of Republicans who were
not sure, who were part of the ones that were
not really sure going to sign up, said when they
saw Jeffrey starting to speak, that made their mind up.

(37:28):
And they're like, yeah, yeah, it was literally so if
that's true, that had a counter effect exactly what I'm saying.
I gotta I watched them for thirty seconds, and I'm like,
I'm signing this bill right just in spite so it
may not it may not have. And right now, the
Democrats the last thing they need is any more shakiness
in their leadership because their DNC can't. I mean they

(37:51):
are in full downward spiral. I mean, nobody wants to
be part of the dnc is leader lists. They don't
have any vision, they don't have any candidates. You know,
they threw out little Hoggy boy.

Speaker 2 (38:02):
And yeah, they threw him out, didn't they.

Speaker 1 (38:04):
Yeah they are, they are. They cannot get their act together.

Speaker 2 (38:10):
And look at that mayor candidate for NYC.

Speaker 1 (38:13):
I mean, look at that he wins and most of
them come out against him. Unbelievable, and uh yeah, I
don't and then you got you got Chromo. I mean,
that's how bad chromos hated they picked. They'd rather pick
a socialist, you know, uh in New York City, which
is a heavy Jewish population, they'd rather pick an anti
semit Muslim, semi Muslim, you know, communist. And he's gonna

(38:40):
run as an independent along with Eric Adams and then this guy,
and so, yeah, that's gonna be a I don't know,
that's that's gonna be a just get your popcorn.

Speaker 2 (38:49):
That's gonna be one a poop show when you.

Speaker 4 (38:53):
Start, when you start talking about seizing grocery stores and
seizing the supply chain.

Speaker 2 (38:58):
That's yeah.

Speaker 3 (39:00):
That's exactly what we That's what I signed up to
go against.

Speaker 1 (39:05):
And freezing rent hikes, no hiking of rent New York City.

Speaker 2 (39:08):
It's just.

Speaker 1 (39:11):
Yeah, but we.

Speaker 4 (39:13):
Need you to move out Troy, and then we need
to build up a fence all the way around the
state or at least the city.

Speaker 1 (39:18):
We tried. Every year.

Speaker 4 (39:23):
You voted for it, you get to live under it
for the next X amount of time. You have to
stay there.

Speaker 1 (39:27):
You don't trust we're going to be leaving. But you know,
every year someone in the state Assembly proposed it puts
a bill forward to segregate the two apart and keep
New York City. They actually the last couple of been
upstate New York would be called New Amsterdam and New
York City would would be would be New York and

(39:49):
that would be it. It would be just Some have talked
about making it like a district of Columbia, like you know,
kind of a district. Others would be like, nope, that's
the state of New York. Just the five boroughs and
uh and the rest of the state would be They
would be New Amsterdam would be the name of it,
and it would be very red. Let me tell you
know that. You know, the US government, besides the crazy
taxes that they charge and you're paying more taxes if

(40:12):
you're living in the boroughs, on top of the state taxes,
taxes they collect from all of us, the US government
gives New York City eight billion a year in support
eight billion in support for the city through different mechanisms
and stuff like that. It's like it's almost like giving

(40:33):
the money they give to Harvard and Columbia. You know,
what are they charge in intuition? Like why do they
need federal money? Federal funds and why does this Why
does the city need federal funds? They have everything under
any breathing you get taxes in the.

Speaker 3 (40:46):
City, especially private schools like that that those aren't state schools.

Speaker 2 (40:50):
You know, Yale and those aren't like you know, right,
Texas State University or the University of Arkansas. They're not
state schools. So that why are they getting any well?

Speaker 4 (41:00):
And they have they have an endowment larger than most
exactly the New York's budget. I mean, they've they've got
an endowment that can last for a very very long time.

Speaker 1 (41:10):
How does most country other countries GDP right.

Speaker 2 (41:13):
And let's not forget Yale and Harvard.

Speaker 3 (41:16):
Those are all originally like schools you went to to
become a minister, and that was why they set them up,
because they wanted people to read the Bible and you know,
and then spread the gospel.

Speaker 2 (41:30):
And now now look at them, you know, it's.

Speaker 1 (41:34):
Unbelievable, heavy carry Catholic school right, that was your Catholic
school in there.

Speaker 4 (41:38):
Now now they're just racist, anti Asian schools.

Speaker 1 (41:42):
Anti right Asi, Yeah, that's right, but no, it's how
we got in the schools part got the taxes part right,
So yes, uh, it is It is just crazy. When
I heard the Oday that nine B and goes the
I'm being in federal taxpayer money goes. So you're paying

(42:04):
for New York too.

Speaker 2 (42:05):
That's good. That makes me feel me.

Speaker 3 (42:08):
Man, double way, Yeah you are, you're getting Oh man,
I can't use that word on the show. What you're
getting Troy living there? Man, we gotta we gotta liberate you. Man,
we gotta send in the Marines to liberate you and
your family.

Speaker 2 (42:21):
Gets you out there.

Speaker 1 (42:22):
I'm gonna I'm gonna self deport I'm gonna self deport said.
No one's giving me a thousand dollars to do it,
but I'll make that back from the savings of taxes.

Speaker 4 (42:34):
The Yale The Yale endowment is reportedly at forty one
billion dollars.

Speaker 1 (42:41):
Crap, Yeah, Rob, Rob is still producing.

Speaker 2 (42:45):
While he's a He is still unpaid to.

Speaker 1 (42:50):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (42:52):
Yeah, but Rob should have a stipend coming out of
the big beautiful bill for what he does. Man. Yeah,
trickle down funded.

Speaker 1 (43:01):
The uh yeah so. And also this mandominie this this
New York City mayor wants to socialize the entire housing
market in New York. Socialized the entire I mean the.

Speaker 4 (43:17):
It will look like East Germany versus Western. Yes, yes,
what it will turn into New York will turn into
East Germany.

Speaker 1 (43:24):
I was talking a good friend of mine the other day.
We both he's, uh, you know, Doug, he's a he's
a pilot, flies all time. He's based out of JFK.
And uh, he's up there all the time. I traveled
all the time. My one son that travels with work
does there. And he and I were talking about it
was like, you know, New York is such a great place.
When we first moved here, we would go to three
times a year because it was just like a quick

(43:46):
little flight. It's fairly and expensive, and and go see
a Broadway show and we would do that. We do
that a couple of times a year. We first moved
here in early two thousands. Now, man, I have no
desire to go there. I mean, if I have to
go there for that's one thing, But no desire to
go there for like a fun field weekend. I just
really not because you're on You're literally it's like strolling

(44:11):
through downtound bag Dad to check out the market. I mean,
you're on edge the whole time, not knowing what punk
is going to come up behind you and hit you
in the head or try to steal something from you
or shank you or whatever, and the entire place just
smells like the worst weed in the world. And right
now in the summertime, it smells like weed and piss everywhere.

Speaker 4 (44:33):
My oldest daughter lives in the Bronx and my wife
goes every year to visitor, and I refuse to go.

Speaker 1 (44:39):
Oh man, it's just it's horrendous.

Speaker 3 (44:42):
I mean, I can't tell if you're talking about New
York City or Austin, Texas.

Speaker 2 (44:45):
Troy.

Speaker 3 (44:46):
Yeah, it's hard to tell, because we have the same
you know, we've been here, We've been back twenty four years,
and probably we don't.

Speaker 2 (44:53):
We haven't gone downtown.

Speaker 1 (44:55):
I've gone downtown more than you.

Speaker 2 (44:57):
Yeah you have.

Speaker 3 (44:58):
But we saw Sammy Hagar twenty nineteen down there, and
that's where the first time we've been downtown. And oh
my god, decade or we do not even live in
Austin anymore.

Speaker 2 (45:07):
But still it's the same things.

Speaker 1 (45:09):
I know when I come in for work, I'm down
there for workstuff, and I'm telling you all about it.
I'm like, You're like, I'm.

Speaker 3 (45:14):
Like, I'm up here in the I'm up here in Wilco. Man,
it's a little freer up here.

Speaker 1 (45:19):
Yeh yeh.

Speaker 2 (45:20):
It smell so bad.

Speaker 1 (45:21):
Yeah, Williamson County is nice, but the uh, yeah, it's uh,
it is. You're right, it is. But it's it's gotten
better in Austin a little bit better.

Speaker 2 (45:30):
But I'll rely on you, you be my recon. I'll
stay here because they're in the CP.

Speaker 1 (45:38):
Because they had that grassroots effort and made it where
they couldn't just let the homeless be everywhere. And Abbott
came in and helped close down the place.

Speaker 2 (45:45):
The state clean the state, they take it over. Yep.

Speaker 1 (45:50):
But you know it was definitely on track to be
you know, the San Francisco of Texas for sure.

Speaker 4 (45:56):
Well, some of that city council out of Austin also
ended up and ended up in Washington. Greg Kazar, the communist,
he's he's now in Washington. I don't know how the
hell he got from the city Austin City Council to Washington.
But because anybody that voted for that idiot should lose
their voting rights.

Speaker 2 (46:17):
Yeah, don't forget about Lloyd Doggett.

Speaker 4 (46:20):
Oh Man, that he's another one of those that just
pops up only when it's election time. I mean, you
never see that guy.

Speaker 2 (46:25):
Dude. He's been here since you got elected in nineteen
ninety four. I remember that in election. He's been here
ever since.

Speaker 4 (46:31):
And he's worth like ninety six million dollars.

Speaker 2 (46:33):
Yeah, that's amazing how that happens, isn't it?

Speaker 4 (46:36):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (46:36):
How did that happen?

Speaker 4 (46:38):
Been a lifelong politician and it's worth several million dollars?

Speaker 2 (46:45):
I need to doge to these people.

Speaker 1 (46:47):
Doge was in a year whatever? Probably not that crazy? Yeah,
how does that happen? For sure? But well, yeah, I was,
you know, I know how he got to Washington. He
probably went there working for the administration.

Speaker 4 (47:00):
But you know, twenty nine point seven million dollars what
Lloyd Dogget's worth.

Speaker 1 (47:07):
Yeah, and uh, you must follow Nancy's stock tips probably
there's probably follows are stock tree. But yeah, so so, Doug,
what do you think about you know, where things are
going going in the July fourth back of the last couple,
seeing how we're going into this one, what's your just

(47:27):
general feelings on the state of the country.

Speaker 3 (47:29):
I'm feeling a lot better, Troy, I was. We were
just having a similar conversation at dinner time. Here a
little while ago, and I'm like, you know, I'm like,
Trump is probably the best president in my lifetime.

Speaker 2 (47:41):
And you know, I remember rigging well and I've got
a lot of good things to it.

Speaker 3 (47:45):
But you're just getting things done and and kind of
like making you feel like, you know, there's hope again,
not not just you know, but for your kids and
stuff and looking for I don't know, hopefully this is
just to flash in the pan, right, just to respite,
you know, just to respite from from it going back

(48:06):
to what it was four years ago. And I'm concerned
of the arc of history right of this country over
the last.

Speaker 2 (48:12):
Sixty eighty years. But you know, these these.

Speaker 3 (48:15):
Kind of these right turns, these these these abrupt right
turns every once in a while I think are awesome.
So I'm feeling pretty good about it. I like, you know,
the stock markets up. You know, some of us want
to retire some day, so that'd be nice. You know,
I've been working for forty years the man, working for

(48:35):
the man for forty years as S Stacy, you know,
so you just kind of going, man, it's it's been
a long time. But but no, I think I'm feeling
pretty good. I mean, I think, you know, just today,
you know you're talking, you touched on patriotism. We went
to Hub today and in the morning and there was
like employees there wearing like red, white and blue hats

(48:56):
that had like makeup on and stuff.

Speaker 2 (48:57):
And I was like, man, I I don't remember the
last time I seen that, maybe like nineteen eighty four
or something. You know, I'm like, what you know, and
I don't know. I'm in our neighborhood.

Speaker 3 (49:08):
There's a ton of flags, and I know we're a
little probably different because there's a lot of retired military
here and.

Speaker 2 (49:14):
Things like that.

Speaker 3 (49:15):
But man, it's I'm I'm a little bit more than
cautiously optimistic for how things are going.

Speaker 1 (49:22):
I mean, I don't want to be any any Fourth
of July parties in the neighborhood this weekend.

Speaker 3 (49:26):
And yeah, we're having We're having our own you know,
we'll have the whole We'll have the whole family over here.
And the good news is my doctor said I should
eat more red meat Troy, So I'm gonna eat more.

Speaker 1 (49:38):
So I've been clear, Okay, yeah.

Speaker 3 (49:40):
So because my don't I don't have any cholesterol anymore.

Speaker 2 (49:44):
So they said, hey, now it's too low.

Speaker 1 (49:46):
So now you need.

Speaker 2 (49:48):
Now you need eat meat again.

Speaker 1 (49:51):
Yes, there you go.

Speaker 2 (49:52):
It's right, that's right. You know, not gonna go crazy.
But so yeah, so we have we have hot dogs.
I will be enjoin a hot dog. So see, things
are looking up, Troy, and you're winning.

Speaker 1 (50:02):
You're winning, just like Trump is.

Speaker 2 (50:04):
Right there, dude, I know the pendulum went too far
this way. Now we're kind of bringing it back to
the right, right just a little bit.

Speaker 1 (50:09):
It's awesome. I think I'm sure your party there will
be good, a little different probably than from your old neighborhood.
I'll just leave it at that. There's some parties going
on there.

Speaker 2 (50:20):
It was down in Austin, see the corrupt Austin Travis County.

Speaker 1 (50:23):
Yeah, yeah, a lot of pineapples there.

Speaker 3 (50:25):
Yeah, but blue the blue balls and the fountains.

Speaker 2 (50:29):
Don't forget about that.

Speaker 1 (50:30):
I wasn't sure if you're going to mention that, people would.

Speaker 2 (50:32):
Have to mention that.

Speaker 1 (50:34):
Yeah, what about you, Rob, What do you how's your feeling?
What are you seeing up in your neck of your
new I say new neck of the words You've been
there for a right?

Speaker 4 (50:43):
Yeah, Well, I mean this is this today is the
last day somebody is gonna have all ten of their fingers, right,
So somebody's probably gonna lose a digit tomorrow. But no here,
I mean, I live, you know, as most no I
live in Arkansas. It's it's a very red state. I
also lived way out in the country. So there's there's yeah,
so there's fireworks, you know. I mean, fireworks started three

(51:04):
days ago. Here. The fireworks stands were up last month,
like the middle of the month, already selling. And right
up the street for me, not even a mile and
a half, there's a little country store and behind them
is this pasture and every year they do what they
call the Blast, and they set off a bunch of

(51:25):
fireworks and people just park and it's free. People just
park in the field and they have music and they
set off on you know, fireworks for probably good thirty
forty five minutes, and they take donations and the donations
go to a charity. And so I have a feeling
that is probably going to be you know, pretty pretty
big this year. And there's a couple of other fireworks
displays around here that are going on. But I mean

(51:49):
to what Doug said, you know, you are seeing more
people wearing you know, red white and blue you are seeing.
I especially here in the red state of Arkansas, I
see a lot of trumpets, a lot of Trump shirts,
you know, a lot of that type of stuff. So
but I think there's there's a lot more excitement and

(52:10):
optimism I think going into this year.

Speaker 1 (52:13):
Right, I'll just tell you, guys, since June fourteenth is birthday,
I've had my Trump flag out underneath my American flag
out there, which is you guys have seen my picture
of my big Trump flag. It's been flying non molested
out there, just flying high, just since his birthday in
the fourteenth. I thought I'll keep it up for one
day for his birthday. Has left it like, oh, let's see,

(52:33):
Like I'm still up there. No one's saying anything but
my neighbor. My neighbors know they are. They they've always
said that, Hey, if anything goes down to this neighborhood,
we're all running to your house. Right. The running password,
I'm like, you better know the running password because because
you could hit clay Wares at the door. I'm just saying,
I don't know, but I don't have Claymores in the

(52:56):
state of New York.

Speaker 4 (52:57):
That would be and I'm sure the password is something
that liberals can't say, like, you know, what is a
woman or something like that. Right, that's was probably complicated
like that for them.

Speaker 2 (53:06):
Yes, men have a penis, women have a vagina. That's
the running password.

Speaker 1 (53:10):
Yes, that's hey, you better say it quick.

Speaker 2 (53:12):
Jack's right, just keep saying it.

Speaker 1 (53:15):
But no, I agree, I see it. You know, we
see it in the businesses, right, We've seen it now.
For example, let's pick Target, right, super liberal comedy. You
go to any Target and you'd go to like back
in their book section by electronics. And I've always noticed
this in the last couple of years, and all their
featured books employee picks. Target picks were always like every

(53:35):
book by Obama or Hillary or Biden or whatever. Right,
it was like, I'm like, wow, do they no one
likes any conservative written books? But you know they had
their you know, pride stuff. After we just came out
of Pride Month, they had other big pride displays. Target
had no pride displays, they had patriotic stuff. By mid month,
you see businesses now dumping all the DEI stuff. They're

(53:57):
realizing that none of that paid off and are not
going to get canceled and all that kind of stuff. So,
I mean, I was in sadly. I had to run
the Walmart yesterday and near my house, and I went
there and just like the front row of like all
the shirt stuff, nothing but patriotic stuff, all that kind
of stuff. So I saw no pride stuff in there,
even when I went there in June. So and I

(54:19):
was in there in one a couple of years ago
and it was like they were just the center aisles,
nothing but pride things. So I've just kind of noticed that,
like you know, definitely just the American retail industry has
shifted to to just being more pain and not and
not cow towing to whatever the wope narrative is of
the day because they thought that they had to where

(54:41):
other people get mad at them.

Speaker 4 (54:42):
So well, we talked, we talked about the media and
Hollywood doubling down, and I mean the only thing I
can think of is like you know, a Walmart or
a Target or something like that. I mean, they can
they can turn the ship real quick, right, you know
bud Light. We know it took bud Light a little while.
I guess Hollywood, because you know, it takes a year,
year and a half to make a movie or a
TV show or something. Maybe they just haven't gotten the message.

(55:06):
Maybe eventually we'll see some of that stuff filter out.
But I mean, Hollywood's still putting out garbage. I mean
still putting out woke bullshit. So hopefully that stuff will
eventually filter out.

Speaker 1 (55:17):
That's why we just like to watch the classics, right,
that's it.

Speaker 3 (55:20):
Yeah, Well, well to your point, rob, my daughter said
that there's this, yeah, like a Japanese anime movie that
just came out called, oh god, what's it called K
Pop Demon Hunters, So that's all you need to know.
It's a cartoon there, K pop group and they hunt demons.
I've seen so I watched twenty minutes of it. But anyway,

(55:42):
my point is apparently that we made more move up
money than the latest Pixar movie they just put out
last week.

Speaker 4 (55:48):
Oh that Elio one or whatever they Yeah, well, I
read an article that a good number of the employees
that helped make that when they started stripping some of
the stuff out of it, quit I'm like, you guys
need to understand this. This is an eighty twenty issue,
and you're on the twenty side, and the majority of

(56:09):
America is is simply tired of the bullshit. They're just
tired of it being shoved down their throats. They just
want normal and none of that that you've been shoving
down their throats as normal.

Speaker 1 (56:20):
And look, you see more and more of it all
the time. They saw it with Jesse Smolett, they saw
it with this accusation, that accusation. They saw it now
where eighty percent of the people feel that they were
lied to by the White House by Biden's capabilities, like
eighty five percent of Americans are like, nah, they were
not being honest about what because everyone saw it with

(56:40):
their own eyes. I mean, when you have when you
have someone carrying the water for you, like the media
and able to spin your narratives and just and put
it the way you want, then people just went along
with it, like we talked about at the start, but
people saw it on that for on that debate, and
they saw it ever since then. And now you know
it's all coming out people, you know, the books are

(57:01):
coming out, and you know it's uh, it's funny that
you know, whether it be you know, whether it be
people complaining about the vaccines back in the day and
people and saying, oh, how dare you say that you're
anti vaxxer. And now we have the issues that we
have and everyone's going, all these people are having hard issues. Oh,
maybe there's some truth to that. Biden was not in

(57:22):
control of his faculties and autopen did ninety Oh maybe
there's some truth. I mean, it's like, not only is
Trump winning, but the conservative American is winning. Who has
been lambasted and and and dragged through the mud for
the last four or five years Because now it's all
coming home to roost and everyone's realizing, Wow, they were

(57:42):
right or what they said was right. Go back to
when Trump was campaigning the first time and said that
Obama was was wire tapping Trump tower. Everyone's yeah, everyone's freaking,
oh my god, how could it. But then it came
out that he was right. That's exactly what happened. I mean, uh, at.

Speaker 4 (58:01):
Some point, you're not a conspiracy theorist at this point.
One you should be.

Speaker 2 (58:04):
You really need to be.

Speaker 4 (58:06):
Yeah, And two you're you're crazy.

Speaker 1 (58:07):
If you're not. It's hard to be when everything comes
to all the conspiracies keep coming true. Right, there's no
conspiracies to have because they're all true.

Speaker 2 (58:15):
If it if it's true, it's not a conspiracy.

Speaker 1 (58:18):
Right, So it's like it's hard to be conspiracy. Gotta
find a new it's fact, but one thing one But
as you get ready to wrap up, one thing that
can that I'm kind of nervous about is I feel
like whatever goes up has to go to come down, right,
And I mean I really feel like since the twentieth
and January it's been nothing. But when I see guys

(58:39):
with old guys I know at church and guys at
my gym, and they just walk up to me and
slap me in the back and go, we keep winning, winning, waitning.
I mean it's what they say all the time. And
I'm like, you know, it's like everything and it's just
like what's gonna bottom out? Like is there really a
real scandal that's gonna rock? Is something gonna the bottom
gonna fall it somewhere? Because right now everything's going up

(59:00):
until the right it is just climbing winning. When he
and I kind of have this fear like I just
feel like there's something he just can't be this this
successful all the time.

Speaker 4 (59:10):
Well, I think he's just going to run out of
things to do, right, I mean, he's going to get
it so far and then we're just going to see
lull and it's almost going to be like a lame
duck where nothing happens, right, you know, we're not losing,
but we're not winning anymore.

Speaker 3 (59:22):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (59:23):
I mean, you got I mean, who saw you gone
do in Congo having a piece deal? Who even knew
they were at war?

Speaker 2 (59:29):
Right?

Speaker 1 (59:29):
Right? So? How many other things out there is he
working behind the scenes that he doesn't talk about? You know? Yeah? Oh,
my my friends and coworkers in Canada, we're always messing
with him. We're like, we know you don't have Friday off,
but you may next year.

Speaker 2 (59:45):
You know, that's awesome, awesome.

Speaker 1 (59:48):
But you know, it's just like, how what other stuff
is he out there working? I mean the other day
he called and and you know all that kind of stuff,
shut down negotiations with Canada overre digital uh terror, and
next day they removed him. I mean, it's just, you know,
again he bombed I ran back into negotiating a ceasefire
with Israel. I mean, it's just I don't know when

(01:00:11):
he can stop. I think there's no shortage of stuff
to work on.

Speaker 4 (01:00:14):
He got NATO to could start contributing more much.

Speaker 1 (01:00:18):
Yeah, calling him big, calling him big daddy, loving him,
and I mean it's just like man, it just keeps
on coming. But anyways, it's gonna be a great July
for the Great Independence Day or two hundred and forty
ninth birthday of our country. Amen, and uh the start
of he's he is actually in Ohio right now at

(01:00:40):
the Ohio Iowa the Iowa State Fair I think or
Iowa something kicking off America two to fifty event. This
is the kickoff of the next year's celebration as we
get up to the two hundred and fifty birthday next July.
For its awesome compared to defense, the huge not like China,
not China. He's got it. We're gonna go for the

(01:01:03):
next year. But uh yeah, it's And who would have
thought all this could all this could never have happened
for the fraction of a couple of millimeters.

Speaker 2 (01:01:14):
One turn, one head turned to the right.

Speaker 1 (01:01:16):
It could have stopped all of it. But how scary
that is what a little action can help would impact
and be on our country.
