Okay, we're back a very heavy precipitation in layman's terms rain a Rainstorm so if you hear racket pitter-patter the pitter-patter of raindrops On the roof. You'll know what that is welcome everyone to to progressive discussions and I Just want to start off By saying That I watch some YouTube videos that I haven't seen before Is there a gentleman by the name of snow on the Fox news snow? Last name so I could be wrong. I remember a Tony snow. Well, it's not from Fox Oh Well mark Cuban the billionaire mark Cuban was on there and the subject was about H1B visas Taking away many many many American jobs and he was Justifying it by saying that companies Are out and out to seek the very finest professionals for their companies to hire and the other gentleman was saying No, it's about companies wanting cheaper labor and Cuban who claims is not a conservative or a liberal He's not he's an independent, but you know by him insisting that companies import H1B visa people it is because they want to hire the very best and The very best will make for a better company a more prosperous company blah blah blah yada yada yada Okay, all right, my other type of visa to that they That they count on exploit. I don't know I didn't get the Number or designation whatever it is, but there's another one Which they use quite frequently. Yeah, well Well, I know is You can't fool me you can't fool a slick street wise person I know these American companies are doing it To get cheap labor They could say anything they want all these famous Multi-billionaires that are in the spotlight of celebrity status. They can say whatever they want but that's pretty much what They they all do he was even defending Microsoft and Facebook saying, oh, no, they pay top dollar They want to pay top dollar for the best Employees that they can hire Yeah, no, they're gonna pay top dollar In other words, they can't if they were willing if they pay time if they're willing to pay top dollar for their professional Jobs that they have they would upper management. They would hire experienced American workers Where it would a great resume and pay top dollar. They would it would be hired a h1b's and pay top dollar gate don't That's the point you know It's a trend.  He's you know Hey No matter how Generous or compassionate a rich man or rich woman may appear If you dig deep down and you interview them long enough the truth usually comes out And it's all for them and and it all has to do with the their bottom line. Yeah, just like the commercial The word the word the woman says and that helps my bottom line my bottom line my bottom line I mean anybody owns a business now. Hmm. I Was all the all these market, which is a German company main office is in Illinois There's an all these market in my town and I stopped by to get the Reverend Dr. William J. Eisenman His some soup that he wanted Being in bacon or bacon and bean bean and a bean with bacon. Okay being with me. All right now I had forgot all week because I was at all these a few times this week and it slipped my mind Because I have a lot of things on my plate one of which is an injured Right elbow from working out it very rarely happens to me But it happens it goes with the territory anybody who does intense High intensity exercises It's it's like a contact sports athlete. It goes with the territory and yes My voice sounds like the man from men's warehouse I have a raspy voice because of the weather saw please forgive me. I apologize. This is not my real voice But anyway, I stopped by I got the soup So somebody the the cashier She was always very nice to me Older Dominican girl Hispanic girl over here is me mentioning over heard me mentioning that my wife Basically used and deceived me for a green card and then she left so her answer was she looked Well, she looked and then looked down and she had a smile on her face and she says hey We have to do what we have to do So I says yeah at other people's expense She didn't answer me so that whole politically correct neoliberal Concept that there cannot be any reverse discrimination against Caucasians is a bunk is bunk because that kind of debunked it because of that is Someone who is a predatory a person from a third-world country of color being predatory towards Caucasian-American men and not caring not feeling any remorse for what they do and the Emotional damage that's done and possibly financial damage Blood sweat tears and time put into it the immigration system.  I was gonna say ever since 9-11 Did a GW bush with his? His Organization Homeland security, excuse me, sir. I'm sorry homeland security changed everything made it very difficult There was the stupidest thing that they require and and believe me Nobody nobody really does this anymore except old geezers and old bags They want to see a a large thick photo album now who the hell keeps photo albums nowadays with all the photos being digitally stored on hard drives and and and laptops and and and and Tablets and such and phones and iPhones and everything androids All they do is if they want if they need photos they just take their iPhone and they just you know go to a Walgreens and and and Download that or upload upload the photos and they can get them printed if they have to but to keep a photo album Well, we all know that the state and federal government does not keep up With the times with technology unless you're the military the military I think is the only department that keeps up with technology and then some But I just want to salute this organization Finally I found an organization very local that shares my interests and And There's a there's a website called meetup.com Where people that have like interests like interest hobbies, whatever Have fellowship they they sometimes they get together for events and they also Promote many events of different kinds many different kinds on meetup.com. Well this one I join is called resist and regenerate out of Elmwood Park, New Jersey. It is a grassroots revolution environmental organic food holistic health organization and It's very local. It's only like five or ten minutes drive Elmwood Park It's you know, it's it's very close to where I live and I joined it and of course I Said that I will mention the group On this week's progressive discussion. So I salute Resist and regenerate Elmwood Park, New Jersey Okay, I dedicate the show to you and hopefully It will be to my advantage To belong to it and and I will meet People With like-minded interests make new friends Oh Along going along the same line as what resist and regenerate is about I've discussed this with Reverend Bill in the past. I have ideas That will help but they will only help If we get the money out of politics As long as like Bernie Sanders says It's extremely important. Nothing gets done unless you get the money out of politics now to to the people That belong to resist and regenerate. I highly I highly recommend you Join the the organization Our revolution They have a website and and as Bernie Sanders has a book called called our revolution And I plugged the book on the last time was it last week or the week before Something like that recently I plugged this book and I showed it now You got to get the money out of politics now my idea is We cannot we have to stop penalizing so-called home owners in America from collecting rainwater Having Vegetable and herbal Gardens in their front yard as well as their backyard you If you have a backyard victory garden and you decide to use your front yard as a garden also You are fine heavily chickens be able to raise chickens for eggs and um and Be allowed to have a high stockade fence to keep your privacy keep everything contained Even though chickens really never leave once they get once that you start feeding them, you know But the point is not be penalized for raising your own food growing your own food another thing I've been to state parks. I've been to county parks Um, I've been to many parks. I've driven by many schoolyards both grammar school and high school There there is Quite a bit of wasted land in all these locations I think that many fruit trees can be planted in schoolyards and state and county parks so Low-income people and the homeless can go and gather fruit also urban gardening small-scale urban gardening Should be a course in in grammar school and high school Where you split the students up like two or three in a team and you give them the assignment of growing one Item of produce and you use the schoolyard for the victory garden I think growing food is extremely important to learn that they Just don't teach in American schools Organic urban Gardening it can be done. It has been done. It's done in cities whether it be in in very large pots flower pots or or flower beds on the roofs of apartment buildings and skyscrapers It a lot could be done with a limited amount of space. I do it. I do it urban gardening. I have I buy five gallon Trash cans and buckets plastic From the dollar dollar store locally the dollar tree. I burn holes in the bottom. I buy eight pound bags of Good potting soil from the dollar store and I have grown Peppers tomatoes herbs Vegetables I've done it successfully a Lot could be done with limited space. You can have a a small scale organic urban Garden and most importantly, I think it should be a course in school and I think a lot of this wasted land That is just there For the landscapers to come and cut the grass Should actually be grass, huh fake grass probably genetic or sometimes no grass. No nothing, but Cedar chips or whatever else they put on the ground. It's wasted land wasted land Well, yeah, plant plant Some apple trees some long berries. I'm a seed some pears Love bears. Is it true that pear tree only grows two two pieces of fruit at a time?  Organic farming organic farming can be at community colleges, too Growing food is important. They don't teach it. They don't do it But getting back to the foundation is you got to get the money out of politics because otherwise None of this stuff including green alternative energy None of it will happen Because of political corruption now There is a wind generator That's out today One uno windmill that can power One home not even counting solar panels can power a home Okay It's out there. Hey, let me see. There's an article here. I want to talk about It's an article about vitamin D and it comes from horizon of New Jersey health Getting enough vitamin D Vitamin D is important for strong and healthy bones. It also helps your body fight infection and Benefits your overall health Your body makes its own vitamin D from sunlight and turns it into calcium. Hmm. Well from what I understand Phosphorus is very important for the conversion For vitamin D to Help the body absorb calcium the vitamin D is not itself. It's not turned into calcium They're wrong. The calcium has to be present and Minerals come from the ground The body doesn't just make minerals out of thin air. No, all right So therefore if it's not in the ground, it's not in the vegetables Sometimes your body may not get enough vitamin D which results in a condition known as vitamin D deficiency Duh, what about Ricketts? Boy, they're real. They're sharp. Kirk is there. I gotta add To them to this article to educate people people with vitamin D deficiency may feel tired or have aches and pains Well, it affects the immune system a great deal. Some people may not have any symptoms It is more common to be vitamin D deficient during the winter months. Well, because you're not getting that much sun Well today's kids are Should be deficient all year round because they don't go outside and play like I did there They're playing video games indoors and there are they're busy being online Okay, when you when you are not spending as much time outside getting sunlight Research has shown That people who have had low levels of vitamin D in their blood are at a higher risk for developing Type 2 diabetes later in life That is why it is especially important for young people to get enough vitamin D if you think you may Be vitamin D deficient Talk to your doctor. Oh, yeah, you want to talk to a drug pushing Big pharma allopathic doctor about vitamin D and they'll give you a prescription for some overpriced Vitamin D3 which you can easily get over the counter. Okay, nice job, horizon Yes, so her well he or she can perform a blood test to check the amount of vitamin D in your blood This article is boring me already because it's not complete. It's not comprehensive ways You can get vitamin D Exposing your skin to sunlight Yeah, and moderation certain foods beef liver cheese egg yolks Fatty fish such as tuna and salmon Taking vitamin D supplements talk to your doctor for your correct dosage. You know I Do have to admit medical doctors Have gotten better because my sister Lisa Had a vitamin D deficiency and her medical doctor put her on 5000 international units of D3 now at one time 5000 units would have been scoffed at by a medical doctor. They would have been tells you do my Talks, you're gonna die of toxicity same thing with vitamin A. Yeah, when in reality you could safely take between 10,000 and 25,000 international units of vitamin A and When you have an illness you can probably get away with more than that Well, I Always have to add Some real truths of many articles from official So Seven lucky bells for this week's show I forgot to do that Everything we discuss politically is part of our series Crapitalism in a conch shell I mean that might I can't lift my right shoulder. I got he's my left hand soaking that conch energy. Oh King Neptune Want me to mention William Morrow? Yeah, I know I know I Had the fight of all fights with him. Oh, Lord. This time. He really is persona non grata. Yeah Okay, I talked to you. Hi, William Morrow is one of those guys because See his father was a big shot high. He had a high executive position with IBM So he he was a spoiled and coddled child, but now He is retired From doing commercial voiceovers that he used to do with us but he's living on a fixed income and You know He's Struggling to get by you know make ends meet pay the bills But for some reason he is well, it's probably because of his father's brainwashing he is pro corporate and pro right-wing Republican and Even though he's on a fixed income he bashes unions not realizing that and bashes You know a liberal liberalism progressive Left-wing people Not realizing that if it wasn't for those left-wing people he would not have the safety net of The fixed income that he depends on today and all these social services that people low-income people and that William Morrow Depends on Okay, if it wasn't for the left-wing if it wasn't for Progressive liberals you would have no Unions they started the whole concept of labor laws You know and fighting the demons of the industrial revolution JP Morgan's the Carnegie's all of them the Rockefeller Vanderbilt Cornelius, I think it was his name so you know He has a very high IQ he's a highly intelligent man But he shoots himself in the foot by putting down that which created What he lives on? But he's not the only person like this You know also He has been very obnoxious Very nasty very pompous very Arrogant he tries to pick a fight with me as soon as I get there Because I've told him things that he did not want to hear I've told them the truth. I've told them reality He believes very much in what mainstream media tells him He thinks that the underground news the underground media Everything that I've told him is fake news from the internet Everything he hears on CNN is written in stone Okay The the big fight I had with him to end all fights was I was It was something going on on CNN concerning Sean Spicer giving the Melissa McCarthy will be on Saturday night live today imitating him well Bill Morrow got angry and started yelling and saying Sean Spicer is a great guy He's a nice guy. He's just he just He just doesn't know what to say in defense of Donald Trump. I says really really So Spicer's a nice guy. What are you gonna say next that Jeff Sessions the evangelical religious nut is a nice guy I says no Republican in the trunk No Republican in the Donald Trump cabinet is a nice person So what you're saying it is the a right-wing multi-billionaire is a nice person. I Had a big fight with her. That was it That's it You know Nice guy nice guy Republican corporate system Spicer were a nice guy.  He's taking the democracy supposedly Supposedly quote-unquote known as the United States of America and he's turning it into the dictatorship Of Donald Trump Eagle eagle friend him at all costs Eagle maniacal you can't disagree with him. He wants to he wants to make make a Donald Trump criticizing Illegal illegal. Yeah, or if not illegal You get killed for it Like Corleone, you know, well like no forget about I'll send Luke O'Brock. Yeah, forget about Don Corleone He let's go back to the to the Roman Catholic Church of the Middle Ages Talk about a right-wing dictatorship You you were if you disagree if you are a man of science and you disagree With the Roman Catholic Church back then they burned you to the stake What was the crime heresy heresy because you disagreed with the pope because the pope was in errant He could not be in error or because he was the vicar of Christ on earth the bigger They also thought earth was only what sit five or six thousand years old, right? That's more the Presbyterian garbage. Yeah, that's all car. It's all garbage All they need to do is read What do we call it one old one oh four thirty? Where God says he had to renew the face here. He did not renew the earth itself Or make a new earth we had to renew the earth's surface because the devil had destroyed it That made it dark. Was that tofu and boho? Oh and both now This is before the flood of Noah This is way before way and is that the part member the part in Genesis where he actually God actually says it was it might have been a great mistake to they create man There is nothing but evil in his heart at all times Well, he's right That's right. He's right. Look at me. I got screwed over by my so-called close friends on Facebook I mean for God's sakes.   Then they insisted I removed the photos now How can I remove the photos if I don't have the ability? To do anything when I'm banned for three days you can't upload You can't comment So my hands were tired They says take it off take it off then they they terminated I lost everything they terminate me, but they didn't They didn't give me the ability To remove the photos which I would have gladly done. So this People from Facebook main office one named Mary and the other one is Was named Bruce Wayne. Yeah, right Yeah, sure. I talk about fake news Batman. Yeah, that's your real name, right? Yeah So anyway, they turned the deaf ear to my appeal They didn't see the reason that I couldn't remove the photos You know at least send somebody a warrant How can I remove the photos if I'm banned for three days? So what happened was long story short? my so-called friends that I made administrators of the groups and They knew what happened to me.  So they're ignoring me. So I Said they try to make me a member I says, I'm sorry. I can't be a member. I Can't be just I can't just be a member of groups that I Used to own I created them and I built them over six years. I cannot just be a member I made you administrator. So the right thing to do is to make me administrator But thank God at least I have my most important page on Facebook Progressive discussions and you're gonna fix that Next time you're online probably Monday. Okay, so I just wanted to come clean. I'm not gonna mention any names Others that I know on Facebook already know who these individuals are. They're two people That I've hung with well one of them I hung out with and Did shows with and the other one I just did shows with Shame on you for doing that to me. That's all I have to say Okay Molok Molok in Italian, you know more like That's the evil. That's the evil. I am more like Okay, now Let us sink our teeth Into these readings it happens to be the merry merry month of May it is The middle of me right Let's see Can 11 12 13 Today's the 13th. Yep. That's an old talent. Okay, so all right. So the middle of May 2017 coming at you brother Just when you fought President Trump's lack of Intellectual curiosity had reached its lowest ever He commits a colossal verbal misstep Colossal concerning former president Andrew Jackson Well expecting to know about American history One can surmise Trump probably received his information in the coffee shop at Mar-a-Lago prior to time Well from a fellow club member you mean high T. No, not T. T. E. E. T off Oh T off. We spends a lot of time there for a guy that criticized Barack Obama for going on vacation T total From another member who actually read a book about Jackson and remarked about the similarities between Jackson and Trump Trump took this morsel of knowledge and remarked how Jackson Would have prevented the Civil War How does he figure that? He did then he keeps slaves it. Yes, he did They all did oh man. Yeah, they all do you roll the founding fathers Kept slaves, but all men were created equal Despite Jackson having been dead for 16 years prior to the Civil War Trump made his pronouncement on a nationally televised interview Thus proving the adage coined by Abraham Lincoln It is better to remain silent and Let others think you are a fool Then to open your mouth and forever remove all doubt That's pretty clever Trump went on to question the necessity of the Civil War Does the word slavery ring a bell? Hey, what can we say before? Perhaps Trump should have consulted a fifth grade reader Who could have pointed it out in his history book? Whoops, I forgot I'm talking about a book Something alien to mr. Trump.  Oh now it's Chinese steel this is meant To be a political statement whether you like it Or you dislike President Trump enough Is enough as a martial artist and a defender of the innocence. I Have made it my mission to fight bullying Wherever I see it. Well, he's he's definitely a bully.  Yeah, but wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Some people are hilarious You know and how they look how they present themselves and mispronouncing mispronouncing words is funny Come on. Who's that comedian when I was a kid norm Crosby? They used to mispronounce everything. Yeah norm Crosby norm Crosby and Professor Erwin Cork Erwin Cork. No norm Crosby used to just he would deliberately mispronounce words. I mean a living on Yeah, it's funny, but you're not cruel about it, but it is funny when somebody Somebody it's like that or you know, it looks like a freak, but you don't you don't pick on them You don't harass them is what I'm saying Why then? Do we as adults accept and laugh at supposed jokes Made by late-night comedians with bullying behaviors and speech about the present If we don't like his policies, that's fair game They can make fun and criticize them Why are we saying no? To bullying and then accepting it from TV personality What examples are we presenting to our kids? You keep you keep you keep your personal feelings Out of it. Well, I don't know. I mean this thing with Kimmel and his child with a heart condition and Trump getting rid of you know Obamacare and Medicaid that helps helped Kimmel's Kimmel's Jimmy Kimmel's child I didn't know Cost a lot of money thus far. Wow So, you know, I mean I that's fair criticism Give me a break All they want to do is get 800 billion dollars in tax cuts for the big rich three people and cut it from Medicaid and Obamacare that's what they're doing the right wing has have always had a Has always waged war on the poor Well, it's because it's as they say if you let these people people on Medicare and the poor I mean if you let them have their way, they will just Take and take and take and take and take Yeah, but the poor people are such moochers But but but they they forget the biggest moochers, right? Are the rich the corporations who get free welfare free corporate welfare? Millions if not billions a year in tax payers money that they don't have to pay back And what about the the Republican Congress themselves? They're big moochers and military. Come on the military. Um, I Mean, come on. They work less than part-time hours. They get 175,000 a year not counting perks Yeah, but they're not moochers.  They don't care about you, right? Yeah, because that that's only to That's only to Expound their religious views That's all that is which has nothing to do with the child actually which has no basis of truth whatsoever No facts to prove their their cult exactly they claim to be Christians, but it has nothing to do with the God of the Bible President Trump supporters seem troubled by the criticism and a dissection of Trump and His big bold dreams Yeah Dreams for who? They bristle when Hillary Clinton speaks They are perplexed when throngs of people show up to protest Trump's agenda Get over it. They say move on. I Just thought of something real funny. I'll wait to finish Trump supporters assert that his critics are living in a fog Yet Trump is one of the few people in the world who was surprised to find That health care is a complicated issue Of course, it's a complicated issue It wouldn't be nearly as complicated if we had the single single pair universal plan He basically said that the other day with the Trudeau from Canada he said that they had a very good medical Set up and so does northern Europe, you know and so does northern northern Europe and probably even Japan Most of the industry old, you know like Bernie Sanders says Probably every one of them. We're the only ones the richest nation in the world that doesn't have doesn't guarantee Health care for all and education for all Trump's critics are not all knee-jerk reactionaries Who oppose any Trump proposals without reason rather? They are critical because there is often no clear and Convincing explanation of why this president's actions should be supported for example What benefit derives from? revoking a rule preventing dumping toxic mine waste into streams and rivers I pollute our waters again like they used to You know poison our people, you know, it's all for profit, right? How does that make America great again? I'm still waiting for anybody to explain this and makes their bank accounts great if you happen to be a top top 1% Then there are dozens more proposals executive orders and issues That give rise to serious concerns and questions about what impact they may have Not all concerns can be allied by Trump's guarantees Which have been proven worthless more than once Despite the fact that Trump Did not win a majority of the popular vote and couldn't even scrape together a plurality He is our president Everybody gets that But now he should act like to Trump Supporters wearies of criticism who say move on and get over it. I say you first But I was gonna say that I just I have her I had a real funny thought You were halfway through that wouldn't it be funny like Let's say Donald Trump Lost his reelection Which is very possible and and what if Donald Trump? Okay. He lost his reelection He's back into the civilian Private sector so to speak again and he expects to get four hundred thousand dollars or more to give to give a speech He expects people to pay him a lot of money to hear Donald Trump give a speech and Actually expects that kind of money Now you know it is a huge difference between Barack Obama speech for four hundred grand and a Donald Trump huge difference. I Just thought that was a funny Concept of him expecting to get paid a lot of money for public speaking Well, according to Thus far Released information right about Donald Trump's taxes He ain't paying any yeah, like you mean like General Electric doesn't is not known to pay any either and Bill Moro yelled at me and insisted. Where did you get that fake news garbage from?  He's in a world I says cut the boy cut the bullshit Billy Norway Norway pays more Well, I think all scan they get more I think all of Scandinavia the rich pay their fair share in taxes and then some He is so freaking brainwashed by what his father taught him that Well, right now he doesn't he doesn't see the truth right now the fake news thing is from Fox and Trump That's where this comes from. Oh Alternative fact. Oh, oh, I didn't get to see I did not get to see it in its entirety, but have you Watched the interview between Judge Gene Pirro and Donald Trump. Yes, you saw the whole thing. Yeah, I didn't not the whole thing Yeah, she's you know what? She's way smarter than Donald Trump. Oh, yeah, definitely and and and even though she's she's conservative She's she's a hot older. She's a hot-looking older woman. I find her appealing I don't agree with her, you know, but you know, well if you look at what's going on at TV, you got red of Ancestrian. Oh Now she's on MSNBC. Yeah, what is she all about it? And Jeanine Pirro and Some others who you know if you watch them more carefully you're going to see them Moving towards the liberal side Mean because of Trump, you mean Trump is going to drive right well he already pissed off Some people on Fox. Yeah, and and the Republican Party.  All he's got right now is his base Once the base starts Frittering away You'll have nobody to depend on so so so he will drive many Republicans and many former many right-wing news Journalists, whatever he will drive them more to the left where they will Probably end up becoming moderate Republicans may be maybe maybe But it is also with the change of Obamacare that he's going to be driving the base away Mean mainstream Joe six pack mainstream mainstream Uh Joe six pack America. He's going to hate his stinking guts when they realize They don't have any health care that he's robbing them of health care. Yes, and and he's gonna totally Enraged mainstream America if he tries to touch him in poor Ryan try to touch social security He's really gonna. I mean this gonna be riots You know, I mean Well, it's gonna be trouble. I don't know what it is because it's been kept secret But they have touched social security in some way shape or form Yeah, I don't know how though. Yeah, they they they treat They treat anything that helps Low-income Americans as an entitlement even though it's not an entitlement. It's paid for right Yeah All right, they don't like to give you anything. They want you to be reduced to either slavery Or or death Yeah Yeah, take your pick get out of my country Remember what they used to say if you were against it.  There you go. It's Bill Morrow. Why don't why don't you go? Go See almost was doing William Shatner go move to Sweden. I says I don't speak Swedish Well learn get up. I says I got a better idea instead of progressives leaving The United States which you call your country. Yeah, why don't we overthrow corporatists like you?  Hey, they did the same. They did the same thing to the people who were against slavery Susan B. Anthony and all the women who wanted to vote.  In other words, it is the same both either you love their version of America Or leave it. It's not that it's not a America. It's not an America lover to leave it. It's love their version of Christianity America or leave in politics. Yeah, exactly their agenda their agenda. That's it we Have hit a low point in our democracy. That's for sure When I saw a reporter asking house members after the health care vote Whether they had read the bill Every one of them said nothing and Looked like deer in the headlights Are you serious? Voting on a bill that affects 24 million American citizens and they couldn't take the time He even know what they were signing They couldn't wait For the bipartisan committee to see exactly who the bill will affect What the Senate must do upon its return is reject this almost criminal behavior and Have both Democrats and Republicans sit down face-to-face and Repair the weak points of the Affordable Care Act Lock senators in a room and don't let them out until they fix it This is too important to take the status quo for granted and why in a million years Would they put a 600 million dollar tax break Only for the top 1% of the wealthiest citizens What does that do to with our what does that do with health care? What does that have to do with health care? Finally The president promised health care for all Americans During the primary season This is one promise. I hope he would keep Well, I mean anything that's alive and breathing Needs health care for God's sakes.  Well, you know that Who was it? the father of the Senator what you will call it from Kentucky. Oh Rand Paul Rand Paul's father on Paul's son Rand. Yeah, basically last he basically said If he comes upon somebody dying on the street He'll pass them by Nice guy nice libertarian. Well, that's nice. That's how they figure it You know drop dead. Yeah, that's like that's how they treat the poor and homeless people in India They you're invisible. They walk right over you. Hey, they do that in New York So so that means that the Paul family Rand and Ron With all their degrees on the wall Have no compassion or empathy for people That are not rich. They don't have any they're there. They're like sociopaths Well, if they if a person lacks compassion That is empathy to really that is a sign of A sociopath now empathy is when you feel somebody's pain Like when when slick really Clinton had the crocodile tear run down his face and says I feel your pain as He as he fucked the whole welfare system with with Newt Gingrich and signed away Glass-Steagall I feel your pain. That is that's empathy Like it and pretend like an empathic healer Yeah from Star Trek. No, no, they really exist in real life. She was a empath. Yes They they draw your illness into them and then they feel your symptoms and then it dissipates from them Eventually regarding why should Obama Be saintlier than his predecessors post presidency Another way to look at it saintlier if the Clintons While current campaigning were able to fool Working-class Americans into believing they were going to be helped Why can't Barack Obama do the same Obama saw that Bill and Hillary fooled Working-class Americans into believing they were going to be helped Bill Clinton with Hillary as an advisor campaigned in 1992 In part by reaching out to black voters, but President Clinton moved the Democrats back to the center right and He did it off the backs of African-american and Latino men and women When he signed into law a tougher crime bill welfare reform NAFTA and the financial services modern modern nation modern and Nate Modernization act Why do we need welfare reform if welfare didn't do the job to begin with?  What do you do to survive if you defund it? They never worry about that part of the issue. Well, that's what that's what the gentleman told Mark Cuban He says, you know, there are a lot of people that are not even counted in the unemployment percentage Because they've given up and a lot of these people had to apply for welfare and then finally SSI Just to survive Yeah Of course because then they cut that because and then they make it unworkable And then American if you are looking for a job And you're fresh out of school with a student loan bill, right? You'll you realize that American companies they do not want to hire entry-level people they want to hire people that are ready to sink their teeth into the job and Not be trained Well, yeah, so there goes there goes kids out unless you're an intern and you do it for nothing do it for nothing Yeah, yeah Like when Kramer was working for that corporation Donated is on Seinfeld. He donated his free time But no, no, no, they don't want to they don't want to spend any time training you so there goes the There goes the the new career That you just took out a student loan over. Haha. Yeah Which you're gonna pay for the next 40 years Until you're like friggin 90 years old The Financial Services Modernization Act which deregulated Wall Street and Glass-Steagall That's right Hillary Clinton continued to favor Wall Street as a senator and as Secretary of State The Clintons were rewarded for favoring Wall Street to detune of a hundred fifty three million dollars in paid speeches From two thousand one until Hillary Clinton started her 2016 presidential campaign In total the Clintons gave seven hundred and twenty nine speeches Receiving an average payday of two hundred and ten thousand Seven hundred ninety five dollars for each address the Clintons also reported at least Seven point seven million dollars for at least thirty nine speeches to the big bang Obama may have thought hey This is a great approach If I campaign as a populist With rhetoric like change We can believe in and the fierce urgency of now It will certainly bring about working-class Americans and Especially African Americans to vote for me Making me the president oh then I Can use my presidency To bail out Wall Street Help the corporations and the big banks bail them out help the big banks Yeah, more than they've already been helped and bailed out. Oh, that's what happened a day What it was called the seven hundred and some billion-dollar bailout for all the banks and everything and then all the the Fed Money that came to all the banks and everything so so you give them reserves So you're talking about is being too big to fail exactly Like any in the old days with old-fashioned capitalism Where there was there was no real There was no well there wasn't supposed to be real monopolies. It was about competition if you fail That's the way to crab cake crumbles man. You fail and somebody else a smaller company took your place Well, I'm sure there are plenty of Emerging growing small banks that would be more than happy To take the place I'm not a big one of the big ones that fail Yeah, and that goes for any industry exactly Exactly, you know, there's plenty of quality companies smaller companies to take your place And after my presidency is over Those institutions will give me huge speaking fees.  What is he gonna say to to to justify the high-speaking fee?  Well, obviously they don't say anything. They just get them They for showing up. Yeah, so what is he gonna do?  Oh, yeah, you look great. Well, he's going he's gonna do what he did After they voted to get rid of Obama case and say, where is it? Where's that genius Paul Ryan? What a genius he is. Where is he? Where is he? He's behind them smiling from ear to ear. Where's that genius Paul Ryan? Obama won't say that. No, not Obama. Well, we're talking about Obama. Yeah, you know I'm talking about old mob. Obama used the same playbook as Clinton did. Yeah. Oh, yeah No, I was talking about. Yeah, I meant if if if Trump expected to do the same thing. No, well, he will. Obama Obama Obama Obama Is highly highly intelligent? What is he? He was a professor of constitutional law at one time, right? He fooled the people too He's my boy. He's a corporatist. Yeah, that's exactly and it works Obama became president and After his presidency ended Obama was given two speeches for four hundred thousand dollars each Money, he could never have gotten if he helped working Americans even even the the former I Believe it was Harvard the former Harvard professor Old Goose Nick herself Elizabeth Warren sold out for the big mamoo When she immediately endorsed Hillary Clinton So Obama was definitely not going to be saintly or than Clinton's Because he also wanted the big bucks Trump did not win because of Russian interference Or because of the actions of FBI director James Comey He won because many Americans have been repulsed by the new Democratic Party and particularly by the actions of Bill and Hillary and Barack Obama and let us not forget the DNC with Debra. Was there content shits? Let's not forget the DNC That's the real reason why we now have President Donald Trump That's right for you people that are watching from the organization resist and regenerate if you're wondering what this thing is it is a Good luck Blackthorne Shalely imported from Ireland if you happen to be wondering what the hell am I waving around? President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Thursday To set up a commission To study His unproven Allegations of voter fraud in last year's presidential election. I thought I thought James Comey was targeting Russia's involvement in the 2016. They were Because there is no such thing as voter fraud. I Mean for real, are you just saying for real? Let's stop and figure it out for a moment.  Okay, so now you're in the book in the book Your first election comes up that you want to vote in if you show up You take your id card you go to your place where you show up then you have to sign something sign I think you got to sign three things You got to sign the book Under your last signature and there's like a slip the ticket they give you and then the ticket when you go inside That's when you go in the booth go in the booth So, okay, mr James Madonna or whoever came in or Joe Paluca Joe Paluca. He voted He's done And he's on record now four o'clock comes Another Joe Paluca comes in. Oh gee shows his id Open the book Wait a second. You were here at two o'clock. You already signed it. You already signed him. What? So, how do you get voter fraud? Now you have to prove that you're the real Joe Paluca So, how do you get voter fraud? You know what I'm saying? So what you're trying what you're saying to me dr. Bill is that If you show up and unfortunately Way too many americans do not show up the boat And and and less are showing up than ever before. Yeah, but those that have shown up It's on record Whether you vote that you're not. Yes So, uh, what about the um the so-called uh, george Soros A manufactured voting booths that flip As you're pushing the button for one guy or gal and it flips to somebody else What about the old flippo? Well, they had trouble with all those machines a few years ago. Yeah, arizona actually hauling them All the companies are made those machines There was a way to hack them And they gave you the wrong uh totals, etc Yeah, and then as that one I believe it was in kansas Or iowa You once the votes are counted they I mean counted up you as a citizen you count the votes You count the votes the people in charge of the council In the county or whatever it was One of the people who counted the votes to change the total Because the total was against them Yeah, but isn't that how it goes. Yeah, well that's voter fraud all right Yeah, well look at gerrymandering is is a way of cheating too that too That too voter id Are charging charging minority minority for for to pay a fee for a voter id right but In the end when when republicans speak about voter fraud and etc What they are trying to do Is get rid of democratic votes Oh, yeah, that's all it is because the lower the lower Income the lower on the income totem pole you happen to be The most the more likely you are to vote democrat Or or or liberal independent Progressive so the less likely you are to vote republican The richer you are the more likely you are right to vote republican Because you're just a stingy greedy son of a bitch right so just get rid of those democratic votes Right and the republicans take over now as far as hillary clinton goes There's just something about the south Um southern blacks They just Like that slick willy and they and if it wasn't the slick willy Hillary wouldn't have gotten their votes So that's why she got the southern states You know, I mean they they They rather vote for uh the wife of uh Bill clinton from little rock arkasaur Then vote for a jewish guy from brooklyn new york Yeah, who lives up in vermont Yeah, and though the guy the little jewish guy from brooklyn new york He's the one that marched with Dr. Martin Luther king and and mackamex and all the rest of them And he's the one that's going to help you in the end. He's the one That is going to help minorities more than anyone else right not the big banks not not the big corporations not the big rich Yeah, because hillary clinton didn't want Uh free public education free public college for all she was against that. Yeah, she was against the uh Well, she kept on flip flip flop them, but she was pretty much against Single payer universal health care. Yes, until she saw the crowds at mister, uh, uh, uh Sanders Sanders Meetings and rallies. Yes. Oh his rallies were you could see and she was all for you could see people for miles and miles and miles Yeah, but but anytime hillary had a rally Not too many people showed up. No, the chairs were empty you know and as far as uh Jill stein and the green party goes There's something about Jill stein that turned It must have turned Bernie Sanders off.  You know like a car dealer It never disappears She never gets angry And mad like bernie sanders does She's always smiling I To me that's a red flag. It didn't work. Okay. That's all we know. That's a red flag. Well, no, she she fails Every time she runs well, first of all The independence are not invited to the debates And of course it is the green party. Okay, so yeah, well the green party was invited It's not going to get the vote if just stein was invited to the debates like Like all the democrats were at the debates for the democrat debate Yeah, and the republicans You know at least one independent should be at the debate Everyone should be heard Yes Everyone I will finish this and then we'll go to lunch Oh, it's the kind of arm Is there a short one before lunch? Oh, no because I started this one already. Oh, no, no finish it finish it The commission will be chaired by vice president Mike Pence Will be joined up By 15 other members appointed by the president Kansas secretary of state chris kobach Who has advocated for some of the most restrictive voting laws Will serve as a commission's vice chair. Oh, yeah, of course, of course the people Who don't vote republican will be restricted, but you know the commission will review policies Practices that enhance or undermine The american people's confidence in the integrity of federal elections Including improper registrations improper voting Fraudulent registrations Fraudulent voting And voting suppression. Well, they're very republicans are very concerned about Illegal aliens voting Illegal immigrants voting. Yeah, that too. So how do you do that?  Yeah motor vehicle.  You're in the chiseless all the shame That a person who is sick and bedroom should be wheeled in on a gurney Just to prove that they are a real person To either they've already done that like four years ago, you know in our last Visit when they were there and it got picture taken. Well, this was my mother was Bullshit relinquishing Her driver's license, but she couldn't just relinquish it She had to be dragged in there. She had to be there All right, hold on. All right, go ahead Trump Who lost the popular vote? To hillary clinton. Yeah, by nearly 2.9 million votes. Thank thank you. We like to a college Has claimed that last year's election included Up to three million to five million Fragulent voters But there's no evidence for this As voting rights advocates blasted The new executive order federal and state election officials From both parties also disputed Trump's claims And said there have been few Incidents Of people voting when they are not registered Or voting by people Who were not american citizens every election is going to have issues But i don't think That three million to five million people voting illegally was one of those issues The election officials have said they worry Trump's claims could shake the faith of voters Particularly at a time When the fbi and congress are investigating Whether russia interfered In last year's presidential election Stood by his claim We'll see at the committee Trump told time magazine in mark Trump had originally been Expected to sign the executive order creating the voter commission in late january, but it was delayed The advisory commission will hold public meetings Meet with federal state and local officials As well as election experts voting rights advocates came out swinging Against the new order We hold grave concerns about this commission And the impact that it will likely have On minority communities michael waldman president of the brennan center for justice At new york university school of law Called the commission a sham And a distraction all studies Including our own Have shown That fall voter fraud Is rare and the myth Of voter fraud has been the justification For restrictive voting laws for years Serving to roll back access To our democracy For people all across the country. Yeah, we're about Republicans cheating To to minimize votes against them like we just talked about before Voting rights advocates say the administrations would focus on making access to the polls easier Instead of unfounded claims of voter fraud They argue some lawmakers Are using the claim to ramp up more restrictive Election law That's it. That's it. Okay. We are going to break for lunch people And you will you will now see The how to defeat a conservative bible versus Followed by promo The newsletter censored and we will be back with the balance of our show All right I got it.

That's www.newslettercensored.com Okay, we're back From an invigorating lunch Well, like I was saying to the reverend doctor william j eisman we were talking about culinary subjects now um He likes sometimes he makes salmon cakes fish cakes now if you make it in the style Of the maryland crab cake uh It does not and it's also made by a company I believe out of north carolina Or somewhere down south called phillips phillips seafood It is made most of them are made without breadcrumbs In other words breadcrumbs are optional Or whether you use panko Breadcrumbs or italian season It's really optional because On on a on a container of old bay seasoning A maryland crab cake does not require Breadcrumbs because you're using a raw egg Uh, some mayonnaise, uh some leon parents wish to shire sauce Seasoning of your choice And that's pretty much it for the recipe of a crab cake So I am imagining That it is mostly the raw egg that holds The crab meat together, so I'm assuming the same thing will happen to a salmon cake You know that like if you want if you want to eat a low carb salmon cake, you don't need breadcrumbs breadcrumbs You know, um if you want to stretch out a can of salmon then uh You got to use pank I'd say panko, but you can't use the american panko Because the american panko is not half soy and half whole wheat The the imported one the japanese panko is half soy and half whole wheat But uh, I would just you know the price of canned salmon has been very reasonable lately So I would just use an extra can of salmon and just you know go with the mayonnaise and uh Uh a raw egg That's about it really. That's all I have to say Uh when when it rains like this I I uh, I'm in the mood for seafood. This has to do with the water Coming down And it's still coming down Yeah, but no fish is coming down with it. No No, no not at all. Um I was uh, Andrew Zimmer On bazaar foods on the travel channel was uh, was with uh commercial Eelers eel fishermen in the netherlands And you know, I never had uh English-style jellied eels before I am very curious as to what they taste like You don't think that you would like to try that? No Jelly deals. No The u.s. Postal service speaking of jelly deals Is hoping it can soon raise stamp prices by a penny Or more well, it's certainly not going to go down The postal service on wednesday Reported a quarterly loss of five hundred and sixty two million dollars Really because their parcel prices are very reasonable Dr. Bill The loss is because of the republics Uh, what like they're making them pay their pension stuff in advance Somewhere's around six billion dollars a year. So they want to they want to hurt Right everything that is not privatized Right bingo, it's not privatized. They want to hurt it cripple it cripple it. You got it Because they their their their goal is to destroy everything that's government funded except the military industrial complex And that they get robbed from They're just downright Uh, underhanded Corrupt evil entities The uh, the conservative capitalist But they would say well at least we're not communist Oh, what's what's wrong with well Socialism I see nothing wrong with socialism if you read the definition of socialism I see nothing wrong with it The loss was despite growth in package delivery Well, you know two-day priority is only like six thousand 40 some odd cents new to you know continued erosion in the use of first-class mail As well as expensive mandates for its Retiree health care obligations. See that's the six billion It also attributed losses to a force reduction In stamp prices last year force reduction. Yeah, the prices went down two cents Remember, I mean 49 cent stamps were served to 47. Oh by the way international Shipping the DH L DHL DHL is the king Without a doubt. I know people who live in other countries who have businesses And they use a DHL It is it is very reliable. It is fast. It is a reasonably priced DHL for shipping Long distance the postal service is generally barred Under federal law from raising prices more than the rate of inflation But it is seeking greater regulatory leeway To increase prices including a one cent rate hike Provided in a measure being considered by the Congress The current cost of a first-class stamp is 49 cents. That's true America deserves a financially stable postal service That can continue to play a vital role in our economy And society said the postmaster general Megan J. Brennan She said the postal service continues to cut costs aggressively Sometimes you just have to go with and stay with big government Sometimes in some areas big government does do it best Not always but sometimes some areas the financial report shows What it described as controllable income of more than 12 million dollars For the three months that ended at march the 31st But when taking into account expenses to pre-fund retiree health care And other items considered beyond management control it posted a loss Operating revenue came to 17.3 billion dollars A decrease Of 474 million from the same time last year The postal service continued to match double digit growth In its package business Boosted by the strength of amazon and other internet retailers But that wasn't enough to offset losses In both first-class mail and marketing mail Also known as a junk mail Which make up the bulk of revenue The postal service is urging relief from the mandate to pre-fund retiree health benefits legislation in 2006 required The postal service to fund 75 years worth Of retiree health benefits Something that neither the government Nor private companies are required to do interesting How the hell do you would uh fund Retiree health pensions whatever When they ain't even there yet The people are not even hired yet That's what the republicans did Okay, it's all a fantasy. Hey, did you get that did you get that political banner? For me of uh of paul ryan dressed up like a leprechaun saying that uh Them poor people on medicator after me pot of gold. Oh, I saw that yes. Yeah, that was that cracked me up for some reason Legislation passed by a house committee This year would relieve the postal service of much Of the expensive pre-funding requirements And allow a one cent increase In the price of a first-class stamp The postal regulatory commission is also reviewing Whether to offer more leeway to raise stamp prices A move opposed by many trade groups First-class mail volume is down As people rely more on email For online bill payments the number of first-class And marketing mail items delivered during the last quarter Was 34 billion pieces A four percent decrease the financial numbers release Wednesday Bring the postal services year-to-date earnings To nine hundred million dollars Better than the 1.7 billion loss For the same period last year Largely due to reduced expenses For the health care pre-funding The postal service has lost money For 10 years In a row It says the continuing red ink Hurts consumers Because it can't make necessary investments To ensure prompt efficient And reliable postal services such as By updating delivery trucks And equipment Yet it would turn it post to go electric Due to public resistance It dropped a previous proposal to cut costs By eliminating Saturday mail delivery But we still get it I know that it was uh It was uh Thought of Defeated Today's financial report shows the underlying business strength Of the U.S. Postal Service while also indicating The need to address external matters beyond The United States Postal Service control Just close it I had to see what was on the other side Just stick it Oh, you know Um Is this true that Sarah Palin uh one time This year referred to um Barack Obama as As uh Shuckin and jiving She used the word shuckin and jiving heard Colin Powell wasn't uh, uh general retired general Colin Powell was not happy about Shuckin and that heard saying that about Barack Obama Well, it is kind of racist It is It is racist My farts is racist Shuckin and jiving That's what republicans do What about uh Perry Oh, that dummy niggerhead Remember niggerhead No, no Niggerhead, that was the name of the place where they went Pheasant shooting With all their big white buddies Oh, well all the uh Niggerhead You mean talking about the texas elitists Yeah That all sound like foghorn leghorn Yeah A former governor's former idiot governor governor of texas rick perry They went pheasant hunting and that's what they call the place Yeah, yeah Yeah Well they used to back in the day they used to call brazil nuts nigger toes Let's face it.  I'm trying to attract the beautiful songbirds and I'm getting all these grayish brownish dirty dingy looking miscellaneous birds Hogging the food and spilling more on the ground than in the feeder You know birds are messy All right, go ahead These window strikes Are typically caused by birds trying to escape The attack of a hungry Sharp shinned Or cooper's hawk You know what my friend my good friend Ken Thieson who They they rescued Baby blue jay and and it adopted it became part of the family. Yes, it became very domesticated Uh named they named the Gracie you know Gracie is on her um second um set of uh of babies So far her second set her second season of babies And they have a a huge problem Down in Boca Raton, Florida with the cooper's hawks And what what's been happening is sometimes the blue jays attack The cooper's hawk Uh as a combined effort You know like a like they they get together and they just peck the hell out of the cooper's hawks The cooper's hawks are definitely a big problem In their panic the birds don't see the pane of glass And fly smack into it Hawks That chase birds from feeders fly into windows as well Yeah, and feral cats I mean cats in general also are our enemies of uh wild birds Over the years my wife and I Have tried several ways to reduce the bird strikes From simply not washing our windows As often to sticking faint plastic silhouettes On the outsides of the panes So they don't appear clear anymore. Well, they sell decals Yeah, they sell decals sure But as we found out dirty windows And decals don't quite cut it They still crash into An incident last fall made us take drastic action One sunny september afternoon we heard a sickening funk at our dining room window We hurried outside to find a female Red start Lying motionless on our deck that hurt get her alive We weren't sure So rather to move the bird or seek help too hastily We sat nearby for seven minutes of protected from possible predators Maybe it was in shock of some kind Yeah probably Slowly The delicate warbler regained her senses After a while she flew off Much to our relief then and there We realized we needed to do something more about the safeguarding of our windows And what can you do though? One expert recommended moving the feeders closer to the house So that the birds would be more aware Of the huge obstruction Our house Blocking their escape route But I know from experience that feeders near homes And decks usually mean a free buffet for every squirrel In our zip code Yeah you have to squirrel proof your Bird feeder I mean they do sell They do sell Devices that you can wrap around a tree trunk You know and it claims to be squirrel and cat proof I just the cheapest way is just to get by barbed wire and wrap around the tree Several times, you know Since january We've been using something called A copion bird savers Which hawk mountain sanctuary In pennsylvania And the shenitaktik National wildlife refuge in virginia have installed To reduce the window strikes The design could not be simpler strands Of 0.125 inch diameter Olive drab parachute cord 4.25 inches apart hung vertically From a cord Across the top of the window frame And attached with velcro or hooks Sounds like a pain in the ass to to install that but Our copy of his website has instructions for do it Here's Alvarez And the small pennsylvania company also sells the finished product You know I don't like sliding glass Doors In the back of a house because I like more privacy. I don't like all that sunlight coming in Bother hurting my eyes. I don't like old. No, I don't like any nosy people Seeing what I'm doing. So I am not in favor of sliding glass doors How do you reduce The number of birds flying into your windows, please share Your ideas with me at features at north jersey Dot com.

Fell on the other side of the window a headphone is getting the Morse code and then he would Tap out boom it's come through a slit under the window to me and like say s1c And that strike one call and I'd say So you did foul balls was that's not in the reference, right? What happened was that I saw him start to type and I started a ball on the way to the plate And he was shaking his head. No, and I didn't know why and I got it and he said the wires going dead and So I had a ball on the way to the plate and Billy Jurgers of the Cubs and bad So I didn't follow one off And I looked and I felt out there did like this So I had Jurgers follow another one Then I hadn't followed one that missed being a home run by about a foot And I had described the two kids down back a third that got in a fight over the ball Now I realized that I had to keep going because if I now broke it off. They'd know It was the night thinning and you know in those days you didn't have one guy broadcasting a game. There were at least seven Stations broadcasting this same game So I knew I'd lose the audience if I had to say this So I kept on fouling and pretty soon I'm gonna begin to sweat because I'm setting a World record for a fellow stay in a bat fouling consecutive pitches Finally clearly sat up and started typing. I started another ball of the plate Slip came through to me and I started to giggle. Jurgers popped out at the first ball pitched Yeah, I don't know I Didn't but I and I didn't know whether there were ever any records, but for days I'd meet people in the street who'd stopped me and And they'd say is there ever been any record has anyone ever stayed at the plate that long and You know he was there a long time I Herman's going over to his right. He makes a one-hand stab picks it up where the wrong hand throws it down just by a step My fellow Americans not too long ago one of our ambassadors visited an American armored cavalry regiment Stationed on the NATO line in Germany as he returned to his helicopter He was followed by a young 19 year old trooper the trooper asked him if he could get a message to the president Well, the ambassador said that sometimes getting messages to the president was part of his job The young trooper then said will you tell him? We're proud to be here and we ain't scared a nothing Well not long ago the ambassador was in Washington and told me the sequel to that incident I'd repeated the story in a talk that was carried on our voice of America radio program and there in that base in Germany The young trooper heard the broadcast and knew that I'd received his message His commanding officer said that he ran down the company street yelling the system works the system works Well, the system does work, but not just because ambassadors can get messages from a 19 year old trooper to the president Our system this way of life We call democracy and freedom really works because of the dedicated Americans like that GI in Germany Who've always been willing to defend our way of life from foreign aggressors from those who do not love freedom and seek to destroy it Today is armed forces day a day We set aside to remember and thank those Americans who wear our country's uniform and who serve our nation in so many places around the globe Many are far from home and things you and I take for granted family friends all the good things that go with life in our hometowns They've given all these things up for the sake of a challenge and to answer a call The challenge is the task of defending freedom and the call they've answered is summarized in three words duty honor country So on armed forces day, let's remember the debt we owe those in uniform News of this broadcast will be carried in the armed forces network And I know I speak for all Americans when I say to our soldiers sailors airmen marines and Coast Guardsmen We thank you for the job you're doing and the sacrifices you are making for all of us at home And we're grateful and proud of you for your devotion to country and to the cause of freedom Now remembering to say thank you is very important But we here at home have a greater responsibility As you know since my first day in office Restoring respect for America's military and rebuilding our nation's defenses has been one of my highest priorities It remains so today. I'm sure you've read about the discussions going on in the Congress on military spending I'll reserve comment on them until the Congress has completed its current work But I do want to say this much One of the things that is most deeply disturbed Americans during the past decade Even though it isn't always talked about as much as other political issues Was the expansion of Soviet influence beyond their borders and Gola Ethiopia Cambodia Afghanistan and Nicaragua are cases in point This trend was of natural concern to the American people Especially right here on the continent the tendency of some leaders to shut their eyes to the real world Their lack of realism about our foreign adversaries and communism's unrelenting assault on human freedom Requires that we face up to the need to restore effective deterrence and help our friends Americans don't want to take chances with our national security It's just one of the strongest impulses in our body politic Americans know an act of Congress can repeal vital military expenditures They also know what an act of Congress can't repeal the aggressive tendencies and intentions of our adversaries So I want to say today I'll be conferring with the Congress and with Secretary of Defense Casper Weinberger on the military budget and Believe me our attack on waste and fraud in procurement like discovering that $436 hammer is going to continue But we must have adequate military appropriations as President Kennedy said there is no discount on defense My first responsibility as president is the safety and security of the American people So if a suitable compromise can't be worked out I won't hesitate to put our case before the American people and ask for your support On this armed forces day, let's say thanks to all Americans in uniform But let's make sure we give them the tools they need to do their job Until next week. Thanks for listening.

As many of you know, Elizabeth Warren has dropped out of the 2020 presidential race, and she has yet to endorse anyone, and when speaking to reporters about whether or not she will endorse anyone, she said she basically hasn't come to that decision yet, I'm paraphrasing of course. And in terms of whether or not she'll endorse Bernie Sanders to me, just the fact that she has to think about it is a horrible sign, but it's not that surprising. If you followed Elizabeth Warren's trajectory throughout the course of this primary, she went from being with Bernie Sanders 100% to trying to tear him down by lying about him at every opportunity she had when she was on television. So if she doesn't endorse Bernie Sanders, that's not going to be a surprise to me. In fact, there is a possibility that she endorses Joe Biden. That's a very real possibility. But we don't necessarily know what's going to happen. The question is, going forward, will Elizabeth Warren supporters back Bernie Sanders? And I'm seeing a lot of people say, yes, I'm going from Warren to Bernie. She was my number one choice, but I believe in progressive policies, and I want to get behind the person who has the best policies. I think that that is the obvious thing to do, right? If you are voting, then presumably you believe that there is a net benefit based on the policies that people will put into law if you elect them. That's the whole point of politics. We don't vote based on personality, or at least we shouldn't. But theoretically, it makes the most sense for Elizabeth Warren supporters to back Bernie Sanders. Will that happen? Will Bernie be able to capture all of her support? And I think the answer is no. So I don't necessarily know what's going to happen going forward. This is definitely a two-way race between Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden. They're going to be pretty close in delegates, although I will say that on Tuesday, five or six more states go, and that's probably going to be a good night for Biden. But I want you to keep in mind that this race is incredibly volatile and it can change like that. Bernie went from being the frontrunner and possibly was going to emerge as the presumptive nominee on Super Tuesday and the opposite happened. And it all changed in the span of a couple of days. So if it changed before that quickly, then I think that it's possible that it can change again. So we don't really know what's going to happen going forward, but all that we can do is do our best to make sure that Bernie Sanders wins. And you've got to understand that this is difficult because we're not running against a couple of other candidates. We're not just running against an entire party. We're running against an entire economic system. Capitalism is absolutely ruthless and we knew that it was never just going to concede to Bernie Sanders. It was never just going to roll over and allow him to march to the nomination. So you saw how Barack Obama very likely pulled some strings behind the scenes for Joe Biden, got Pete Buttigieg, Jamie Klobuchar to drop out. We saw Michael Bloomberg drop out and endorse Joe Biden, which is funny because now Joe Biden is thoroughly embracing Mike Bloomberg when this individual is openly racist. He's openly racist. He's transphobic. And just what was it a month ago? Bernie Sanders was a horrible person for not disavowing Joe Rogan.  It doesn't matter what race. You are always at a disadvantage because think about this. We're running against capitalism. We're running against an entire corporate media apparatus that at every single turn undermines everything that we do. And I believe that there is a lot of things that we probably could have done better going into Super Tuesday, right? There's a fixed amount of things that we can control, but there's a large portion of things that's outside of our control that we have to deal with. And maybe we can't overcome that electorally speaking. But overall, the odds were always stacked against us. We were always the underdog and that's not going to change anytime soon. And all of the bad things that we see and hear about Bernie Sanders on MSNBC, the next time we get another progressive champion, whether it's AOC or Rashida Tlaib, they're going to find a way to tear them down because it's not about identity. It is not about anything but defending the status quo. So you can say, you know, just, I think maybe Bernie Sanders is flawed. You can believe that he's flawed. You can believe that he made some decisions that are bad. But at the end of the day, no matter who the person is, that's the standard bearer for progressivism and democratic socialism in the United States. They are going up against not just one machine or two machines, corporate media, the Democratic Party establishment, but an entire economic system. And that's not just here in the United States, but globally. I mean, think about this. Biden emerged as the front runner, the clear front runner after Super Tuesday. And what happened? Healthcare stocks went through the roof. This system is going to try to crush us. And the whole point is to get you down and is to demoralize you, right? So this is something that we all kind of predicted. And it was almost unbelievable that we had so much momentum. And so look, I'm not counting Bernie out of this yet. I think that it's possible that we win, have our chances gone down substantially. Of course.  He's not the front runner. It's Joe Biden who's the front runner. And if Joe Biden's the nomination, in my view, the 2020 election is over because Trump walks to reelection with ease. Because for all the things about Hillary Clinton that we disliked, Joe Biden is exponentially worse. At least Hillary Clinton, she was, you know, quick on her toes, right? She was a better candidate than Joe Biden.  And so going up against a stronger version of Donald Trump and incumbent who's going to run on this good economy and the media is going to do propaganda on his behalf. I mean, Joe Biden is not going to beat Trump. That's it's almost like laughable to me. So, you know, this is the primary is everything. That's all I'll say. The primary is everything because if Bernie Sanders isn't the nominee, I don't think we have a shot at beating Donald Trump. But coming back to the broader question currently that we're all kind of asking ourselves, will Elizabeth Warren supporters rally behind Bernie Sanders? I think there's a lot of people that are.  I don't care where you come from, who you were with previously. I'm almost going to sing a Backstreet Boys song. You can come to our movement and we will welcome you with open arms. But let me just say this. We are never going to sacrifice any of our principles ever. And some people are going to be unwinnable. Like I see and this is I don't know how big, you know, the percentage is. But I see some of Elizabeth Warren's more notable supporters, you know, the blue checkmarks who are really hoping that, you know, will wind them and dying them will maybe massage their feet, rub their back a little bit, kind of persuade them by them dinner in order to get them to come on board.  And let me just say this. If you are not basing your support of a candidate on a policy, we can't win you over. We know we can't win you over. And if the snake emojis bothered you, I can assure you, Elizabeth Warren is going to be just fine. This is a white woman with millions of dollars. She's going to be just fine. The snake emojis didn't hurt her, I promise you. And if and if snake emojis hurt her, then I mean, you're not going to be Donald Trump. So look, we're running against the system. And I want all the Elizabeth Warren supporters to understand if they thought that we were too mean that you don't win unless you aggressively push back against smears and misinformation. You can't. It's not possible, right? You can't do it.  So I'm sorry if, you know, we sent a couple of too many rat emojis at Pete when he lied about Medicare for All, which is a life-saving policy. I'm sorry that we sent snake emojis to Elizabeth Warren when she was lying about Bernie Sanders. But this is how we have to do things. We can't not be aggressive. We can't afford it. And if you're not aggressive going up against Donald Trump, you're going to get eaten alive. And let me just read. I'm not going to put anyone on blast, but I do want to read just some of the blue check mark sentiment towards Bernie Sanders. I don't know like this one here. Did you do a video? This is in response to Robert Reich. Did you do a video asking Bernie supporters to stop it with snakes?  So I mean, like because Bernie supporters sent snake emojis to Elizabeth Warren, then that's reason to not back the person who is clearly ideologically aligned. Like if you if you think this way, I have no respect for you because that's that's immature, right? That's so entitled. Sorry, but you weren't nice enough to me. So I don't think that poor people should receive health care.  I don't want you on our team. I don't want you on our team because clearly you're not in it for the right reasons. You're not in it for the right reasons. This one here as a Warren supporter, I probably align more with Bernie politically, but I've been so turned off by the behavior of Bernie supporters since 2015 that I just can't support him. What we tolerate defines our character and Bernie has tolerated horrible behavior. Oh, OK, so the like numerous times that he had to denounce his supporters in mainstream media, I guess that that wasn't enough. And it's funny because there's this assumption that it's only Bernie supporters that are horrible. If you look at the Elizabeth Warren subreddit, like whenever they talk about Bernie Sanders, they put progressive in quotations when they talk about him. I mean, they are always going to hold us to a higher standard than they hold themselves. And it doesn't matter if we apologize and be polite to them. They want you to bow down, but we're not going to bow down because we know that if you're not in this for policy, then nothing we say can convince you.  Nothing will win you over.   Sorry, you don't get anywhere in American politics. You can't take on capitalism unless you got a backbone. This is why Democrats always get wiped out because all of you lack backbone. So yeah, we care about policy. So we aggressively advocate for that. But this is such in a this comment is just so perfect here. And this is really what I respect. This is from Maurice Kreisman. She says, as a feminist, I mourn what's happened to Elizabeth Warren. But as a sufferer of chronic illness, I know we have to move on with Bernie. And that to me, I have nothing but respect for this person.  But for a lot of people, this election is life and death. I don't get to just, you know, base my support on the identity of a politician. I don't get to say, you know what, maybe I'll vote for this person because the supporters were really nice and they wooed me. You know, they took me to dinner. They wind and died me. They sent me heart emojis. That's not the way that this works. We have to do that.  If you do have a choice, then you're privileged. Congratulations. That's great for you. But not everybody gets to make that decision. Not everybody gets to make that decision. I'm voting because my my nephew needs insulin. I am voting because I have student debt that I will have for the rest of my life if I don't get that eliminated by Bernie Sanders, right? So I'm going to vote for the person who is looking out for me personally and for the rest of the country, immigrants, the downtrodden, homeless people. That's how we have to base our political decisions on. I can't choose to, you know, not support someone because their supporters sent me snake emojis.   Like if you supported Elizabeth Warren and you're going to Joe Biden, then you just have to admit that you don't care about policy and maybe American voters just don't care as much about ideology as I thought.  I saw these polls exit polls from Super Tuesday states and every one of them supported Medicare for all and then they went on to vote for Joe Biden.  So if you're worried about snake emojis and not capitalism, then we can't win you over and maybe we shouldn't win you over.  If you're not passionate, if you don't feel that fire in your core to fight for the things that we're fighting for, you don't need to be on our team. So I'm sorry to all these daily coasts, blue checkmark, feminist suburbanites on Twitter. I'm a feminist, too, but these are fake feminists, right?  But at the end of the day, you see how easily they abandoned their principles and vote for Joe Biden, someone who voted against gay marriage. I mean, I saw this tweet and I wish I could give credit. People to judge you endorse Joe Biden, who voted against gay marriage. He voted for Doma and he endorsed him over the person that supported him before he was born.  And part of this dysfunction is because there's an instability built into the system because we live in a capitalist society where it is. It's just automatically going to, by default, defend the status quo, right? And so maybe once in a while, you know, we punctuate that equilibrium and we get an FDR in or we get someone in like a Bernie Sanders who makes a difference. But at the end of the day, we never stop fighting.  All right, say La Vie, don't need you in our movement then. I don't think we could work with you. You know what I mean? So at the end of the day, this this isn't a decision like for Elizabeth Warren. There's no decision to make. If you don't endorse Bernie Sanders, then everything that you claim to care about it's meaningless. It's meaningless. And you weren't here for us in 2016. So if you're not here for us in 2020, you think we're going to be here for you in 2024 when you inevitably run again because Joe Biden will lose if he's the nominee. And, you know, there's going to be a whole new set of corporate Democrats. I can't imagine Bernie whatever wants to run again.  But I mean, you can't put yourself through that. But I mean, we're going to have a whole new class of Democrats. They're all going to be shitty corporatists. And, you know, the Democratic Party has got to realize that they are they're turning off a generation and maybe partially that is our fault because, you know, millennials and zoomers aren't coming out to vote in numbers that we had hoped. But at the same time, I mean, I don't blame voters.  I mean, people feel like their votes don't matter because the system really beats you down. It drags you through the mud and makes you feel like you're worthless and nothing you ever do or say can make a difference. So it's not like, you know, I can't empathize with them. It's not like I can't, you know, understand where they're coming from. So we've got we've got our work to do. And, you know, over time, I think it's really important that progressives are introspective and we look at what we could have done differently.  We're never going to win over corporate media. Whoever the lefty is, they're going to be attacked by corporate media. It doesn't matter who it's going to be the same playbook. But maybe by then we have more people if it's not too late with climate change, right? So I mean, like we we can control a lot, but you can only control so much. So we just have to keep fighting and doing what we can and understand that politics isn't just about electoral politics, right? It's about building movements, forming coalitions and making sure that we empower the working class. And more importantly, most importantly, to be specific, we let them know that they do have power. The working class does have power. It is in their control and you don't just have to wait every two to four years to exercise your power by voting. You have power as an individual and you can take action. So we're kind of seeing, you know, working class people across this country find their voice. We're seeing polls reflect at least, you know, exit polls show that socialism is preferred to capitalism, even in areas that Joe Biden won. It states that Joe Biden won, if I'm remembering correctly. So, you know, we've got our work cut out for us. But at the end of the day, what Elizabeth Warren does if she hasn't already fully, you know, taken the mask off is going to determine her future. If she ever wants a future in American politics, she has no choice but to endorse Bernie Sanders, but I wouldn't be surprised if she doesn't. With that being said, though, if you're on board with us, then this is an easy decision for you, you know, though, based on policy. So I kind of took this in a couple of different tangents. Don't really know where I'm going with it. But I just kind of like I haven't talked about politics in a couple of days. So I've had a lot on my chest and it just kind of exploded into the microphone now. But that's that's where we are. You know, we just we never stop fighting. Leftists are always going to be marginalized. Leftists are always going to have to fight 10 times harder than centrists and conservatives. But we have to do that because we're fighting for the right causes. We're on the right side of history. Everyone else is not. So when you have the moral high ground and you're fighting this uphill battle against a disgusting killer of a system that literally is like crushing its population, like you have no choice but to keep going and you can't let it get you down because we expected this. It sucks, but we keep fighting every day is a new day and a new area of opportunity for us to improve. So we just we keep going because we can't stop because if we stop, then we give up and working class people, marginalized communities, trans people, women of color, people who need us are losing fighters and we can't stop fighting for them. We have to do it not for ourselves, even if we feel down, but for other people. That's the thing. If I feel like I want to give up, then I think I can't give up. I can't. I have no choice because there are people in this country that aren't comfortable enough that can't fight for themselves, people sleeping out on the streets, right? People who are going to die if they don't get healthcare. So if I feel selfish enough to give up, then I'm just not being empathetic enough towards people who can't really fight, who don't have a voice. So that's what we do. We just keep fighting. That's what the left does. We fight no matter what happens. We get elections. They come and go. The outcomes sometimes are good. The outcomes are sometimes bad. But regardless of how it turns out, we just keep fighting and that will never change.
