1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,280
Lollipop, Lollipop Lollipop 
Lollipop Lollipop Lollipop 

2
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:13,400
Lollipop Lollipop Lollipop 
Lollipop lollipop. 

3
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:42,800
I mean, I I don't know if I can 
remember the last time I was 

4
00:00:43,480 --> 00:00:49,560
this happy. 
I am serious. 

5
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:59,520
This last week, this last month,
what the hell happened? 

6
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:03,360
I mean, let's just wind this 
back. 

7
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:08,640
Let's go back two months to the 
night of June 27th. 

8
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:22,200
The debate, the debate that was 
over seconds after it began. 

9
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:27,080
I mean, Biden shuffled his way 
out onto the stage. 

10
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,480
We were all like, what is going 
on? 

11
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:39,440
Jake Tapper asks him a question,
the first question. 

12
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:50,760
And in the very first sentence, 
President Biden just mangles it,

13
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,520
OK? 
We all mangle a word or two here

14
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,320
and there. 
So I'm thinking to myself, it's 

15
00:01:58,320 --> 00:01:59,920
OK. 
It's just, yeah, yeah, These 

16
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:05,160
older guys. 
Yeah, no problem, No problem. 

17
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,680
It only got worse in the next 10
seconds after that. 

18
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,600
And then 20 seconds. 
And then it was like, all of a 

19
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:17,280
sudden, not only was the debate 
over, Biden implodes, he loses 

20
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,360
his place, he doesn't know what 
he's talking about. 

21
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,400
Suddenly there's a kitchen table
involved in the conversation. 

22
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:27,080
I don't know what happened, but 
literally the man implodes. 

23
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:32,960
The debate is over. 
And if you remember the sinking 

24
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:40,200
pit in your stomach, the pit had
a voice and it spoke to you from

25
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:46,960
deep down. 
And it said, fuck, the election 

26
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:53,120
is over. 
It's over. 

27
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,640
Oh my God. 
Oh my God. 

28
00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,920
And Trump is coming back to the 
White House. 

29
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:07,080
And people I know just turned 
the TV off right then. 

30
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,120
They couldn't take it, but I had
to. 

31
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:12,960
I don't know. 
I don't think I'm a masochist. 

32
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,280
I just had, I had to know what 
else was going to happen. 

33
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,600
And I watched it. 
And then I got to be honest with

34
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:22,680
you when it was all over because
I had to write something about 

35
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:23,880
this. 
I had to do something. 

36
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,600
I just had to get it out. 
I sat there and I watched the 

37
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:37,720
midnight CNN rerun of it. 
I watched it a second time so 

38
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:43,200
that you wouldn't have to. 
I did it for you, all of you. 

39
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:49,920
Oh my God. 
And do you remember the days 

40
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:55,680
after that? 
How we all felt we were coming 

41
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:59,080
up? 
It was now the 4th of July week.

42
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:05,120
We're in that next few days. 
Do you even remember what you 

43
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,080
did this year on the 4th of 
July? 

44
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,080
No, you don't, because she 
didn't do anything. 

45
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,040
I don't know. 
Maybe you were at some cookout, 

46
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:17,959
but you were just after three or
four beers. 

47
00:04:17,959 --> 00:04:20,120
You were just looking off into 
the wind. 

48
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:29,280
God, it was over. 
It was over, which means America

49
00:04:29,280 --> 00:04:32,520
was over. 
The democracy was over. 

50
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,520
I'm going to be dictator on day 
one, he said. 

51
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:48,160
Yeah, of course. 
We all believed it because it 

52
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:57,200
was true. 
And then people started to speak

53
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,480
up. 
You and I were some of those 

54
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:10,280
early people saying this can't 
happen, President Biden, for the

55
00:05:10,280 --> 00:05:12,480
good of the country, you have to
step aside. 

56
00:05:13,840 --> 00:05:16,320
Or in my case, I said you have 
to step down right now. 

57
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:21,520
You have to step down because 
because what you showed us there

58
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:30,960
on debate night was that you are
not in in full control. 

59
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:37,040
And it made me sad. 
And I wish that there was 

60
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,280
somebody who was there 
protecting you and making you 

61
00:05:39,280 --> 00:05:49,490
not have to go through this. 
And how, how on earth could I or

62
00:05:49,490 --> 00:05:51,930
anybody convince you to step 
down? 

63
00:05:54,570 --> 00:06:03,170
Use the 4th of July to swear in 
President Kamala Harris and 

64
00:06:03,170 --> 00:06:06,970
President Harris. 
Shock all the dude Bros out 

65
00:06:06,970 --> 00:06:09,840
there. 
Name a woman as your vice 

66
00:06:09,840 --> 00:06:14,120
president, Gretchen from 
Michigan. 

67
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,680
I there's any of a number of 
people that could fit the bill, 

68
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:23,040
but two women, Two women, nobody
would ever expect that. 

69
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,440
Nobody expected that debate. 
Nobody expected anything. 

70
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,120
We're watching right now. 
So keep that going. 

71
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:36,040
Keep the shock of it all going. 
Two women are going to ride into

72
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:44,920
town and clean this shit up. 
Yeah, well, that was that was my

73
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:51,400
suggestion. 
And on Sunday afternoon, July 

74
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:59,520
21st, just a couple what, couple
3 weeks later, it took a while. 

75
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,320
George Clooney, whole bunch of 
people. 

76
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:07,920
Nancy Pelosi, whole bunch of 
people had to do their part. 

77
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:18,560
But at 1:46 PM July 21st, 
President Biden did what nobody 

78
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,200
thought he would do, did what no
politician would ever do, which 

79
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:27,640
is to voluntarily, willingly 
give up power. 

80
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,960
And that's what he did in a 
tweet. 

81
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:42,400
And about 30 to 40 minutes 
later, he sends out another 

82
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:46,800
thing saying that that he's 
turning the campaign over to 

83
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:50,880
Kamala Harris, that he's 
endorsing her. 

84
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,120
She should run. 
She should be our next 

85
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,800
president. 
He picked her for this reason. 

86
00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:00,200
He knew back then, four years 
ago, there was a chance he may 

87
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:04,480
not make it. 
And everybody that went to vote 

88
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:10,400
for him and her knew that it 
wasn't just some second name on 

89
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,000
the ballot. 
When you look down and you saw 

90
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,120
her name there, you knew what it
was there for. 

91
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,560
A man that age may not make it 
another four years. 

92
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:25,120
That's just the facts. 
So we had to vote for him 

93
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:29,560
knowing that that might happen. 
And probably for the first time 

94
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,200
ever, you ever voted for a vice 
president, you knew that you 

95
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,720
might be voting actually for the
next president. 

96
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:40,799
And that's what we all did. 7 
million plus more of us than 

97
00:08:40,799 --> 00:08:43,840
those who voted for Trump. 
And that was the end of Trump. 

98
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,640
And on that day, on the 21st of 
July, which as I'm recording 

99
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:58,720
this here on Sunday night, 
that's, that is five weeks ago 

100
00:08:58,720 --> 00:08:59,480
today. 
That's all. 

101
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:06,600
It's been 5 weeks. 
All of a sudden the like, it was

102
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:11,080
like the sun rose again at 2:00 
in the afternoon. 

103
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:21,240
It, it, it, it was like the 
world just changed instantly on 

104
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:26,000
a dime. 
And we all got giddy. 

105
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:29,520
We all couldn't believe. 
We couldn't believe it. 

106
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:30,800
You know what else couldn't 
believe it? 

107
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:34,440
Trump couldn't believe it. 
He still can't get. 

108
00:09:34,560 --> 00:09:38,120
He sits 5 weeks later, he's 
still complaining and wondering 

109
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:40,160
when Biden's going to come back 
into the race. 

110
00:09:42,560 --> 00:09:47,720
Oh my God. 
And so. 

111
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:56,520
And so here it is now just five 
weeks later and every day just 

112
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,920
keeps getting better. 
When has that happened in your 

113
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:00,720
life? 
I don't know when it's happened 

114
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:02,840
in mine. 
I'm trying to honestly think of 

115
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:06,880
when did the last time I felt 
this way day after day after 

116
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,000
day. 
Oh my God, it just feels so 

117
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:16,640
good. 
I mean have you taken your blood

118
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:18,720
pressure lately? 
If you just put your two fingers

119
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:23,520
on your on your wrist to take 
your pulse, your heart rate has 

120
00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,200
gone down, your blood pressure 
has gone down. 

121
00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:35,560
I'm like how did this happen? 
Nothing ever good happens. 

122
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:41,120
Life, life is hard. 
Life sucks a lot. 

123
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:48,240
It really hasn't sucked it now 
in about 5 weeks. 

124
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:53,280
I'm still on some kind of high. 
What is that? 

125
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:59,000
I mean, I'm not, you know me. 
I'm not, I'm I'm I don't get 

126
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:05,320
excited about politicians or 
candidates or any of this stuff.

127
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:11,400
All a bunch of hooey. 
Yet watching the convention this

128
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:18,000
past week, watching Michelle 
Obama, and who's the guy that 

129
00:11:18,560 --> 00:11:20,120
she hangs out with? 
Brock. 

130
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,320
Yeah, him too. 
He was great. 

131
00:11:22,560 --> 00:11:29,400
They're all great. 
Al Sharpton, not once, but 

132
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:33,080
twice, takes the stage. 
One time he brings out Jesse 

133
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:40,680
Jackson in a wheelchair, The 
great Jesse Jackson still alive.

134
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:47,520
And the second time, he brings 
out the five young men who were 

135
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:52,000
wrongly put in prison for a 
crime they didn't commit in 

136
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:58,000
Central Park. 
And they served various lengths 

137
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:03,720
of prison sentences that I think
went from 7 to 13 years, maybe, 

138
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:07,680
maybe longer. 
Just awful, innocent, innocent 

139
00:12:07,680 --> 00:12:16,200
men. 
Trump at the time taking out a 

140
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,360
full page ad in the New York 
Daily News calling for their 

141
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,960
execution. 
And now all these years later, 

142
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,480
he gets to run for president 1/3
time. 

143
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:33,240
Wow. 
No, but no. 

144
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,520
He's just, he's down at Mar A 
Lago. 

145
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:39,320
He doesn't know what to do. 
He's just crying his eyes out. 

146
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:45,320
He's posting weird, crazy stuff 
on social media. 

147
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:52,040
I talked to somebody this last 
week who was connected to his 

148
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:57,200
old TV show on NBC, The 
Apprentice, and this individual 

149
00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:03,240
said to me, you know, I, I, I 
have it on pretty good authority

150
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:09,200
that Trump has lost it. 
I said, what do you mean? 

151
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,040
He lost it a long time ago. 
No, no, no, no, no. 

152
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:16,640
You don't understand, whatever 
anybody was worried about with 

153
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:22,960
Biden's mental capabilities or 
whatever this is, this is 10 

154
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:31,360
times that he he, he literally 
has lost it. 

155
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:36,680
He's gone completely bonkers and
and they're doing their best to 

156
00:13:36,680 --> 00:13:40,960
try and cover it up. 
So we don't see it, but we're 

157
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:42,960
going to see it. 
We're going to see it in the 

158
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:43,960
next week or two. 
Why? 

159
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:48,600
Because this joyride we're on 
right now is not going to end. 

160
00:13:50,680 --> 00:13:54,240
We're going to see Trump come 
apart at the seams. 

161
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,080
We're going to see it during the
debate. 

162
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:04,240
The one with with Kamala. 
We're going to see it all the 

163
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:08,320
way until he collapses. 
Sometimes I don't know when 

164
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:12,520
that's going to happen, but the 
the the human body and brain can

165
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:17,120
just take so much. 
And he's already beyond the pale

166
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,160
at this point. 
From this person that was 

167
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,480
talking to me about this, I'm 
like, wow. 

168
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,800
I mean, I don't want anybody to 
suffer. 

169
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:35,120
I don't care how much I don't 
like them, but wow. 

170
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:41,240
So you mean this whole feeling 
that we all have right now, it's

171
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,240
just going to actually continue 
because the pundits were all 

172
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,320
telling us five weeks ago, oh, 
we were just on a sugar high. 

173
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,800
The honeymoon will be over in a 
few days. 

174
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:55,760
This honeymoon isn't over. 
This honeymoon isn't ending. 

175
00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:02,000
And if it's a sugar high who 
somebody, some somebody is 

176
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,280
mainlining sugar into all of us 
right now, then it's not going 

177
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:11,040
to stop. 
You're saying, Mike, how can 

178
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:12,280
this. 
You mean you're saying this is 

179
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:15,160
going to get better? 
Yeah. 

180
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:21,800
Oh, oh, yeah. 
Oh, yeah. 

181
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:28,360
I mean, I don't want to sound 
all creepy about this because I 

182
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:32,040
am a human being and I do care 
about my fellow human beings. 

183
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:38,360
Even the crackpots and the 
crazies and the people believe 

184
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:42,280
that a fertilized egg is a human
being. 

185
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:50,840
I try to love them too, but man 
oh man, oh man. 

186
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:54,360
Oh geez. 
My friends, are you with me on 

187
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,360
this? 
Has it not felt this way for the

188
00:15:56,360 --> 00:16:00,200
last month or so? 
Has it not felt this way in this

189
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:08,680
last week or so? 
Even when we thought, well, this

190
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:11,560
could be better, the convention,
she could, she could say some 

191
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,760
other things. 
Where's the Palestinian voice on

192
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:17,600
the stage? 
That was sad. 

193
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,320
The big, the big tent, the big 
rainbow. 

194
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:27,240
Everybody allowed in except one 
group of our fellow Americans. 

195
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:36,480
Kind of shameful, but I want to,
I want to just, I want to play 

196
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:41,520
something here. 
You know, she made the 

197
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:45,720
obligatory statements that, you 
know, we as Americans will 

198
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:51,000
always defend Israel and we 
don't want any, any Jewish 

199
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:54,720
brothers and sisters to have to 
suffer anymore, which is all 

200
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:56,920
true. 
Nobody wants that. 

201
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:02,120
Absolutely not. 
And most people I know are able 

202
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:06,839
to separate this, even when 
their Jewish friends are having 

203
00:17:06,839 --> 00:17:08,920
a hard time separating it. 
It's OK. 

204
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,160
You got to give them some slack 
here. 

205
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:17,240
You got to have some empathy. 
You know, this is still the 

206
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:23,480
generation after World War 2. 
This is still the people who 

207
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,800
survived the Holocaust are still
with us. 

208
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:34,240
But when she said what she said,
I just want to play this because

209
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:40,200
more than one outlet has pointed
out that of all her policy 

210
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,320
lines, things that you know, 
what she believes in and what 

211
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:49,120
she's going to do, this was 
either #1 or #2 on the Plaza 

212
00:17:49,120 --> 00:17:51,480
meter. 
And just to give you a, a sense 

213
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,440
of I'm going to play her what 
she said about that. 

214
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:57,080
We have to support Israel. 
So first you're going to hear 

215
00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:01,320
her say, you know, some the the 
right thing that she should say 

216
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:06,040
about where we will defend 
Israel and and we will protect 

217
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:09,280
the lives of all Jews on this 
planet or something that. 

218
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:11,600
But she makes a number of 
comments. 

219
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:15,840
She says it once, I support 
Israel, says it a second time, a

220
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,880
third time it's like four or 
five times. 

221
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:22,200
And you know, it was kind of 
like you're sitting there and 

222
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,200
you're thinking, OK, yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah. 

223
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:27,920
But but you don't support, I 
know you don't support the 

224
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:32,960
slaughter of the 40,000 
civilians, the 16,000 dead 

225
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,360
children. 
You don't support any of that. 

226
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:39,880
You know it, I know it. 
I know you, I know you. 

227
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:45,080
Come on and you know me. 
So let's just knock it off. 

228
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,600
Why Say something, please, about
the Palestinians? 

229
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:52,480
And then so she gets nice 
applause on. 

230
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,880
I support Israel, says it again,
I support Israel. 

231
00:18:55,960 --> 00:19:00,360
Nice applause, nice applause. 
And then she gets the last 

232
00:19:00,360 --> 00:19:06,000
sentence where she says finally 
something about the Palestinians

233
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:11,000
and just listen. 
We don't need a spoiler alert 

234
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:14,520
hearing. 
I just want you to listen to 

235
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:18,160
what happens when she does bring
up the Palestinian people. 

236
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:24,440
But can we roll that? 
With respect to the war in Gaza,

237
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:29,800
President Biden and I are 
working around the clock because

238
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:36,160
now is the time to get a hostage
deal and a ceasefire deal done. 

239
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:47,920
And let me be clear and let me 
be clear, I will always stand up

240
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:50,840
for Israel's right to defend 
itself. 

241
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:56,880
And I will always ensure Israel 
has the ability to defend 

242
00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:02,360
itself, because the people of 
Israel must never again face the

243
00:20:02,360 --> 00:20:07,120
horror that a terrorist 
organization called Hamas caused

244
00:20:07,120 --> 00:20:15,640
on October seven, including 
unspeakable sexual violence and 

245
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:21,560
the massacre of young people at 
a music festival at the same 

246
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:25,440
time. 
What has happened in Gaza over 

247
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,000
the past ten months is 
devastating. 

248
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:36,880
So many innocent lives lost. 
Desperate, hungry people fleeing

249
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:43,240
for safety over and over again. 
The scale of suffering is 

250
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:46,840
heartbreaking. 
President Biden and I are 

251
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:51,960
working to end this war such 
that Israel is secure, the 

252
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:56,480
hostages are released, the 
suffering in Gaza ends, and the 

253
00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:01,160
Palestinian people can realize 
their right to dignity, 

254
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:05,480
security, freedom and self 
determination. 

255
00:21:13,790 --> 00:21:20,030
And know this, I will never 
hesitate to take whatever action

256
00:21:20,030 --> 00:21:25,120
is necessary to defend our 
forces and our interests against

257
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:28,200
Iran and Iran backed. 
Terrorists. 

258
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,400
Wow. 
Wow. 

259
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:32,320
And, and did you hear that as 
she started? 

260
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,560
She's she's trying to cut off 
the applause and the screaming 

261
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:39,520
and the cheering in favor of the
Palestinians and their right to 

262
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:45,480
live to liberty and to life and 
to their own identity and their 

263
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:49,200
own country. 
And they just kept going. 

264
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,280
And so she had to try to cut 
them off because she had to, she

265
00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:54,480
had to say something. 
Really, you know, I'm going to 

266
00:21:54,480 --> 00:22:00,240
stand up against Iran. 
And then she went into something

267
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:06,720
about how pro military she is. 
We learned that with Hillary 

268
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:10,480
that if you're a woman running 
for commander in chief, you 

269
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:16,360
know, you better, you better 
show the country that you got a 

270
00:22:16,360 --> 00:22:21,000
pair. 
Oh my God, please in my lifetime

271
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,640
make it so that that doesn't 
have to happen anymore. 

272
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,320
But but anyway, so she's saying 
this and the audience is 

273
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:32,520
applauding all this. 
Yes, we need a strong military. 

274
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:38,080
But it what when she went all 
pro military, They do a cutaway 

275
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:42,480
of the front row where her 
family is sitting, her husband, 

276
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:47,360
her step kids, her sister, her 
sister's kids, they're all 

277
00:22:47,360 --> 00:22:51,720
sitting there. 
And, and, and I mean, my podcast

278
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,640
is audio, so I can't really show
this to you, but I'll, I'll try 

279
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:59,000
to post this somewhere so you 
can see at least a photo of 

280
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:00,760
them. 
So most of the families 

281
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:06,000
applauding her saying this pro 
military stuff, except her 

282
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:11,800
sister, her sister and those two
are peas in a pod. 

283
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:16,400
And they're they are thick as as
any two sisters could be and 

284
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:18,280
supporting and loving each 
other. 

285
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:22,600
And her sister is just sitting 
there, no applause. 

286
00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:28,720
And then her stepdaughter, pro 
Palestinian Ella, Doug Emhoff's 

287
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:34,360
daughter and Kamala's 
stepdaughter, there is Ella. 

288
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:39,840
And she is not cheering on the 
pro military part. 

289
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:42,120
She's supposed to be applauding.
That's her. 

290
00:23:42,120 --> 00:23:45,280
That's her stepmom. 
That's her sister's supposed to 

291
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,720
be applauding. 
This is right there on the front

292
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:55,720
row, her own loving family. 
I, I said that. 

293
00:23:55,720 --> 00:24:03,640
I said, look at that. 
This, this is a hopeful sign 

294
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:08,920
because I know she loves and 
cares deeply about her family 

295
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:15,760
and what they think. 
And I just thought, you know, 

296
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:18,320
it's going to take a little 
while. 

297
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:22,680
She's not president till 12 O 
one on January 20th. 

298
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:26,440
She may not be able to do a lot 
right now. 

299
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,120
And you know, you can go with us
or not. 

300
00:24:31,120 --> 00:24:35,040
I know a lot of you all, all my 
friends who are cynics. 

301
00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:42,640
She's just like all the rest. 
Yeah, I don't think so. 

302
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:47,400
I don't think so. 
I think she cares deeply about 

303
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:52,640
peace and about not killing 
children in Gaza and that people

304
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:56,400
should have food and water and 
things like that. 

305
00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:05,080
And I think she probably finds 
Mr. Netanyahu disgusting, a man 

306
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:08,240
she wouldn't even show up for 
when he gave his speech in 

307
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,320
Congress. 
She's the president of the 

308
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:13,040
Senate as vice president of the 
United States, that makes her 

309
00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:17,240
president of the Senate. 
And she refused to sit there on 

310
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:22,960
the stage with him and instead 
went to a sorority meeting in 

311
00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:28,200
Indianapolis. 
Get the point, Bebe? 

312
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:36,440
No, my friends, I can't tell you
how positive I feel. 

313
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,600
And when I and then in the 
couple days after the convention

314
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,320
she started putting out, you 
know, they keep saying, oh, 

315
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:45,640
she's not talking about policy. 
It's like she's putting out one 

316
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:51,000
policy thing after another. 
And I think it was like 

317
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,800
literally the day after the 
convention, she puts out her tax

318
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:59,960
plan of how she's going to raise
taxes on the rich and she's 

319
00:25:59,960 --> 00:26:04,120
going to do everything Biden had
already put in his platform 

320
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:09,400
running for a second term. 
And it was good what he wrote 

321
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:13,120
up. 
And she took all of that and 

322
00:26:13,120 --> 00:26:17,480
doubled down on some of it. 
And, and, and not just on, on 

323
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:20,320
going after the rich and making 
them pay more, but also on 

324
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:24,440
helping families and, and single
moms and all kinds of people 

325
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:29,200
bring back the child tax credit 
and, and, and put more into it 

326
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:32,640
more than than what Biden did 
before. 

327
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:40,200
Oh my God, the, the wealthy have
got to frigging hate her. 

328
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:50,280
Well, maybe not all of them. 
That governor of Illinois, he, 

329
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:55,520
he seemed OK. 
I mean, he's not a coach, but he

330
00:26:56,080 --> 00:27:01,960
did say he was a a billionaire. 
Never forget AO CS great line. 

331
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:06,040
Every billionaire is a policy 
failure. 

332
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:11,320
Just the fact that we have them 
means we have failed to do our 

333
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:15,160
job. 
In a democracy, we're where 

334
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:19,960
we're supposed to be kind of 
splitting up the pie as equally 

335
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:23,400
as possible. 
So everybody gets a slice, 

336
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:25,440
everybody has a seat at the 
table. 

337
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,560
But that's what her whole tax 
plan was about. 

338
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:35,360
And all the other things that 
she said here in the last week 

339
00:27:35,360 --> 00:27:38,080
about, you know, first time home
buyers. 

340
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,720
She wants to make it so that you
get, if you haven't, you've 

341
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,400
you're you're in your 30s, 
you're in your 40s, maybe you're

342
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:49,400
50 and you still haven't been 
able to buy a house, buy a home 

343
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:53,680
somewhere that's wrong. 
She thinks it's wrong. 

344
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:58,040
So she wants the federal 
government to give all you first

345
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:02,320
time home buyers a check for 
$25,000 to help you with a down 

346
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:08,040
payment that that's not just 
chump change, that's like it's 

347
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:09,800
$25,000. 
I mean, it's not going to pay 

348
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:14,600
the down payment. 
But damn, look at all the other 

349
00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:18,320
things that she's proposed, all 
the other economic ideas, 

350
00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:23,760
They're really, you can see 
that, that Trump and the wealthy

351
00:28:24,120 --> 00:28:25,680
are really going to go after 
her. 

352
00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:29,160
And that's why we have to stand 
for this. 

353
00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:32,320
We have to stand for her, what 
she's saying, what she's 

354
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:38,400
proposing, because in the end, 
she's bad news. 

355
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:43,880
She's bad news for the rich, the
greedy bastards who've gotten 

356
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:47,240
away with so much, who have been
able to cause this. 

357
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:52,200
So this fake inflation, it 
wasn't fake to you or me because

358
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:57,040
prices did go up 910% or more 
depending on what you were 

359
00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:01,440
buying. 
But they went up because because

360
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:04,960
corporate America decided we 
could get rich right now, we 

361
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:08,520
just just pawn it off on 
inflation, pawn it off on supply

362
00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:10,960
chain issues. 
Just let's make up shit. 

363
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:15,840
The American people are stupid. 
That's what they think of us. 

364
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:18,640
That's how they think they can 
get away with it. 

365
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:27,080
She's not stupid. 
Look, she's not you. 

366
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:30,240
She's not me. 
But you and I didn't run for 

367
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:33,200
president this year. 
Did Did Did you notice that we 

368
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:36,320
could have any one of us could 
have run for president? 

369
00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:39,120
We didn't. 
OK, not quite everyone of us. 

370
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:42,960
I know there's people from 
Ireland listening to this. 

371
00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:47,760
Canadians, you can't run and of 
course you have to be 35 

372
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:49,880
according to the Constitution. 
So young people who are 

373
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:55,760
listening right now, you can't 
run either if you're here as a 

374
00:29:55,760 --> 00:30:01,040
migrant, as an immigrant. 
First of all, thank you for 

375
00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:02,640
joining us, wanting to live with
us. 

376
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:06,840
I hope you'll be better treated 
in the coming years. 

377
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:11,240
But sadly, you can't run either 
because the Constitution says 

378
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:16,640
you have to be born here. 
So, but everybody else 

379
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:20,400
listening, you could have run 
and you didn't. 

380
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,040
So now you're stuck with Kamala 
Harris. 

381
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:33,400
I don't think we've ever been 
stuck with anybody this good. 

382
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:41,320
She at 1:46 in the afternoon on 
July the 21st, she got thrown 

383
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:48,480
into this, but she was ready. 
And as I've said, Biden really 

384
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:51,880
is the most progressive 
president in spite of the 

385
00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:57,640
horrific flaw that he will be 
remembered for being the bank 

386
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:02,680
and the arms dealer for 
Netanyahu and his slaughter of 

387
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,640
the Palestinians. 
This will never be forgotten. 

388
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:10,920
And just like Lyndon Johnson did
a number of good things, but 

389
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:15,160
he'll always be remembered for 
sending those nine boys that 

390
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:19,920
went to my high school to 
Vietnam only to be shipped home 

391
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:24,280
in a box. 
Now multiply that by thousands 

392
00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:28,000
and thousands of American kids 
died in that war. 

393
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:31,480
And now multiply by God knows by
what factor. 

394
00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:36,200
So you can count the two to four
million Vietnamese and SE Asians

395
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:44,720
who died, who were killed by the
United States of America. 

396
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:49,440
I think anytime you kill 2 to 4 
million people, what do we call 

397
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,920
that? 
What does history call it? 

398
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:56,840
What will historians 100 years 
from now say about us? 

399
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:04,560
They're going to say, wow, what 
they did in Vietnam, they 

400
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:11,920
started that about, you know, 
400 years before Vietnam. 

401
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:18,720
They came as Europeans here. 
They slaughtered the native 

402
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:24,840
peoples of this land, took their
land, and then went to another 

403
00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:31,640
continent, Africa, to kidnap and
bring people here to do all the 

404
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:37,720
friggin work to build this 
country into the wealthiest 

405
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:42,080
country on the planet in in 
faster time than any other 

406
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:44,160
country had ever been able to 
build an empire. 

407
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:47,240
And it was done on the backs of 
enslaved human beings. 

408
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,720
Those that lived, those that 
weren't lynched, those that 

409
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:54,840
weren't raped and killed. 
That's who built the early 

410
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:58,480
America that we get to take 
advantage of to this day. 

411
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:05,080
We, the society that keeps black
Americans on the lowest rung of 

412
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:10,480
the ladder, never thinking that 
we have any responsibility. 

413
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:12,320
Well, I wasn't here during 
slavery. 

414
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:20,200
I didn't enslave anybody. 
Yeah, but you are reaping the 

415
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:26,960
benefits of our white, Christian
European ancestors who did this.

416
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:33,200
There was a thing on the news 
today that thanks to the that 

417
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:39,280
last Supreme Court decision 
against affirmative action that 

418
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:46,600
the the freshman class at MIT 
compared to four years ago, just

419
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:53,000
four years ago this month, 
freshman class entering MIT and 

420
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:57,600
all these other wonderful 
universities, number of black 

421
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:03,120
students is down 10%. 
White students same. 

422
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:08,080
Number as four years ago, just 
about white students, same, but 

423
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:10,440
black students, Hispanic 
students. 

424
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,520
Yeah. 
All these years after the 

425
00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:21,280
Emancipation Proclamation and 
it's still like that. 

426
00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:25,880
And now. 
And now we, we OK, I got to keep

427
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:27,000
it down here. 
I know. 

428
00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:37,440
But we, we are going to elect a 
black woman and turn the reins 

429
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:42,520
over to her and ask her to go 
for it. 

430
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:49,920
This is what is going to happen 
in 71 days. 

431
00:34:53,639 --> 00:34:56,040
I know, don't jinx it. 
I know we got a lot of work to 

432
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,720
do. 
I know every time you thought 

433
00:34:58,720 --> 00:35:01,880
that was the end of Trump, it's 
never the end of Trump. 

434
00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:10,800
We all have a lot of work to do.

Wake up in the morning. 
What am I doing today to stop

Trump to elect Harris? 
And you know that even though 

462
00:36:57,080 --> 00:37:01,720
clearly it seems like there's no
chance in hell that that Trump 

463
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:06,680
is going to keep his shit 
together and win this election. 

464
00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:14,720
And yet you've seen him skate by
and succeed every single time 

465
00:37:14,720 --> 00:37:17,320
when he shouldn't have. 
And I don't know what has 

466
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:22,200
changed to make that special, 
that special superpower that he 

467
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:24,280
has. 
But it hasn't gone away, my 

468
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:26,280
friends. 
You know it, I know it. 

469
00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:28,480
And that's why we've got our 
work to do. 

470
00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,120
We need to start registering 
people. 

471
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:37,880
Do you realize that in the 2020 
election, which had a record 

472
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:42,080
turn out, more Americans voted 
four years ago than it ever 

473
00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:49,600
voted in any previous election? 
And yet there were 80 million of

474
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:54,960
us that did not vote, 80 million
that stayed home. 

475
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:58,960
They either stayed home or they 
went to vote for local 

476
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:05,200
candidates, but they left the 
top line for president blank. 80

477
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:09,280
million. 
He doesn't need a lot to win 

478
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:15,720
some of these states. 
He won Michigan with 10,700 

479
00:38:15,720 --> 00:38:20,360
votes and if you think that's a 
lot of votes, it's for Michigan.

480
00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:22,400
He won by two votes per 
precinct. 

481
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:26,200
Had just two people changed 
their mind, voted differently, 

482
00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:29,320
or if we gotten two people out 
that were non voters and we're 

483
00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:32,480
staying home, he never would 
have been president. 

484
00:38:33,720 --> 00:38:37,240
That's how close this could be 
again, can't risk it. 

485
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,360
That's why each of us needs to 
start thinking right now who in 

486
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:45,320
our family or who in our group 
of friends is probably a non 

487
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:49,400
voter who just decided a long 
time ago they're all crooks. 

488
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,040
I don't want to I'm not 
participating I'm not voting. 

489
00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,960
We, we know who they are in our 
little circle, right? 

490
00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:01,280
And we got to make sure they 
vote well, first make sure 

491
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:06,800
they're going to, they were 
going to vote for her, but we've

492
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:10,320
got to get them registered. 
We got to make sure each of us 

493
00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:13,200
are registered. 
The one thing Trump is going to 

494
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:16,840
spend his money on is trying to 
challenge anybody who wants to 

495
00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:20,480
vote for Kamala Harris to try 
and stop them from voting. 

496
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:24,800
So we have to do our work ahead 
of time here. 

497
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:30,800
And, you know, they're the, you 
know, early voting in many 

498
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:35,680
states will start probably by 
around the end of September, 1st

499
00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:39,440
of October. 
That's just a few weeks away. 

500
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:44,000
Everybody has to make sure 
they're registered. 

501
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:47,800
And then you got to get other 
people to register. 

502
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,360
And that's only one of a number 
of things we all have to do. 

503
00:39:54,720 --> 00:39:57,360
But we're going to do it right. 
Everybody. 

504
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:03,840
All right, cynics, even you, 
they're all the same. 

505
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:06,920
I know, I know. 
Yes, they pretty much are all 

506
00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:11,880
the same. 
Yes, but we do have a real 

507
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:18,080
problem if things take a turn 
for the worse here, and we can't

508
00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:20,960
let this incredible feeling that
we have right now, how high we 

509
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:27,480
all are, how happy we all are. 
I still can't think of the last 

510
00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:31,280
time I was this happy it had to 
involve ice cream. 

511
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:36,040
I just, I don't let's see what, 
what? 

512
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:40,400
No, seriously, I got to think of
of a time in the last 10 years 

513
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:46,360
I've been I've been this happy 
feeling like, Oh my God, maybe, 

514
00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:51,240
maybe the world hasn't gone to 
hell in a handbasket. 

515
00:40:51,240 --> 00:40:58,880
Is my grandpa used to say. 
I love the feeling that I can't,

516
00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:02,440
I can't identify when I felt 
like this because it feels so 

517
00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:07,400
fresh and so new and that we are
actually going to kick some ass 

518
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:14,560
and women and people of color 
and young people are going to 

519
00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:17,920
lead the way. 
And the rest of us need to get 

520
00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:20,760
in line, get behind them, 
support them. 

521
00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:25,800
It is a great, great moment for 
all of us. 

522
00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:29,120
And it's a chance to turn this 
country around on so many 

523
00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:33,600
levels. 
Don't let the past run you right

524
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:35,360
now. 
The past. 

525
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:37,560
I'm talking about the past where
we've had to put up with so much

526
00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:44,200
shit, so many lies. 
Weak Democrats who had 49 years 

527
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:46,400
to codify Roe V. 
Wade could have made it the law 

528
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:49,760
of the land. 
We had a number of Democratic 

529
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:52,320
presidents. 
We had control of both houses of

530
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,600
Congress. 
Nobody ever thought that we 

531
00:41:54,600 --> 00:42:00,480
should probably maybe also just 
pass a law that says when a a 

532
00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:05,120
sperm fertilizes an egg, a human
being is not made at that 

533
00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:07,920
moment. 
It's life. 

534
00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:10,000
Yeah, it is life. 
It's a fertilized egg. 

535
00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:15,520
But. 
But that's not really what any 

536
00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:17,760
of this is about. 
This is always about power and 

537
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:22,360
control, and in this case, power
and control over women, because 

538
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:25,600
the scary thing about women is 
there's more of them than there 

539
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:27,840
are of us. 
So. 

540
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:34,600
So men, mostly men and and their
female enablers, sad to say, 

541
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:40,080
have kept have kept this 
situation to now a disgusting 

542
00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:42,320
place where women are second 
class citizens. 

543
00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:46,640
Once again, by that Supreme 
Court decision to get rid of Roe

544
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:48,280
V. 
Wade, we're going to turn all 

545
00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:51,080
that around. 
We're not tolerating this 

546
00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:54,560
anymore. 
As she says, we're not going 

547
00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:58,960
back. 
We're going forward and either, 

548
00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:03,320
either dude Bros out there, you 
can get on board the train. 

549
00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:07,640
It's a good train. 
If you get on our train, you 

550
00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:10,280
know we're going to get to the 
point where you're never going 

551
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:13,000
to pull out the wallet when you 
go to the doctor's office. 

552
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:16,160
We're going to have universal 
health care. 

553
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:20,400
If you get sick or your child 
gets sick, you're going to have 

554
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:25,080
paid time off, not having to 
take time off, but not be paid 

555
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:29,520
for it. 
All this crappy crap stuff that 

556
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:33,720
we have to put up with it. 
No other democracy in in no 

557
00:43:33,720 --> 00:43:37,320
other industrialized country in 
this planet has to tolerate this

558
00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:39,880
kind of crap. 
That's where we're heading. 

559
00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:47,080
Get on board the train, dude. 
Bros, You're going to benefit 

560
00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:54,200
from this too. 
All right, Well, I'm just going 

561
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:58,640
on and on because I just, I'm 
just so thrilled with the moment

562
00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:01,240
we're in. 
Let's keep it going. 

563
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:03,680
Let's get those yard signs out 
there. 

564
00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:10,040
Let's put our buttons on our 
coach, ball caps, our whatever 

565
00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:12,080
it is, let's have some fun with 
this. 

566
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:19,200
Let's not be afraid to be happy.
Life's hard. 

567
00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:22,520
Life has given us a happy moment
right now. 

568
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:27,400
Let's act on it. 
Let's put Trump away for good. 

569
00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:37,080
Let's open the doors to our 
White House, to a woman who two 

570
00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:42,080
decades ago, 3 decades ago, 
couldn't even consider this 

571
00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:45,040
happening. 
And here we are. 

572
00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:50,600
All right, everybody. 
So get busy. 

573
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:59,880
Stay high, make a plan, do 
something every day, even the 

574
00:44:59,880 --> 00:45:03,160
smallest thing, to push this 
forward. 

575
00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:07,800
I'll keep talking to you and 
giving you some ideas. 

576
00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:10,360
Make sure you're signed up for 
my sub stack. 

577
00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:14,680
It's it's a free subscription. 
I'll be sending things out 

578
00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:18,360
between now and the election of 
things we can all do. 

579
00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:26,000
My thanks to my executive 
producer, Angela Burgos, and to 

580
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:29,080
David Chinkula and others who 
helped me put together this 

581
00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:32,000
podcast. 
Thank you, Basil, for everything

582
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:34,600
that you did to help start this 
podcast. 

583
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:38,160
And thanks to all of you who are
listening and who are doing what

584
00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:41,960
you can do in your daily lives. 
In the little town in Michigan 

585
00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:46,480
where I live, two days ago on 
Saturday morning, all of a 

586
00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:52,040
sudden walking past my apartment
are almost 1000 people. 

587
00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:57,480
There's only 15,000 year round 
people that live in this town up

588
00:45:57,480 --> 00:46:01,760
in northern Michigan. 
There were close to 1000 people 

589
00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:07,040
marching down the street, 
marching down the sidewalk, 

590
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:12,280
carrying Kamala signs, carrying 
waving American flags. 

591
00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:16,400
I saw a Palestinian flag being 
waved. 

592
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:20,760
I mean, everybody who cared 
about whatever issue they cared 

593
00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:23,440
about the Women's March was part
of this. 

594
00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:28,440
And these are just average 
Midwestern Michiganders. 

595
00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:34,960
And there they were on a 
Saturday morning. 

596
00:46:35,240 --> 00:46:41,920
I thought, wow, I have never in 
all my years here seen this. 

597
00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:47,200
Wow. 
I'll talk to you soon, my 

598
00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:48,440
friends. 
This is Michael Moore. 

599
00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:51,680
This is my podcast. 
Let's make this happen.
