Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio at the George Washington Broadcast Center.Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.Armstrong and Getty.
And now, here's Armstrong and Getty.
Puerto Rico where I'm in my home state of Delaware, they're good, decent, honorable people.The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters.
Now the White House says that Biden wasn't talking about Trump's supporters.They even released a transcript last night where they inserted an apostrophe in the word supporters.
There's an apostrophe there.He's talking about his supporter, meaning the comedian, his comments.
The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters.
apostrophe s so singular supporter with an apostrophe and an s. As someone who had a stutter growing up, it's very obvious to me that there's an apostrophe at the end of supporters there.
He was referring to the garbage spewed by supporters, not simply the supporters themselves.
So the question is, John, is that an apostrophe really?It's a nothing burger.
It's possible that that's true, but you don't allow that possibility with anything that's set on the Trump side, obviously. Even if it's like a fourth-rate surrogate.Right, and I should have grabbed the clip.
Norah O'Donnell actually said the other night something along the lines of the Trump campaign pouncing on Biden's gaffe, showing no grace.
I thought, yeah, for all the grace that's shown by you and the Biden-Harris crowd on if Trump has a gaffe, give me a break.Who do you think you're fooling with that stuff?
Which, I tell you what, and every time somebody like her says something like that, another 500 people say, you know what?I'm not a fan of Trump, but I'm not letting you win with that crap.
Well, right, showing no grace. I don't even have the energy.So that fits in with this thing that I just came across.Oh, first, let's hear from David Axelrod on why this isn't necessarily good for the Democrats.
Instead of her closing speech being the story, half of it was what Biden said, and it gave an out to Trump after that horrible rally at Madison Square Garden with that comedian sliming Puerto Rico and Puerto Ricans.
And it gave him a chance to pose in a garbage truck and say they're accusing my supporters of being garbage.So it really was an unforced error, but it wasn't hers, it was his.
Yeah, it did not help Kamala Harris ultimately, I don't think in any way.I don't agree with a lot of his characterization there, but I don't think it helped Harris ultimately.
I love how the comedian was the leaf that fell in the forest, never mind the tree.And they elevated that into a mighty oak, crashing into Times Square and killing 100 tourists.
But then this sitting POTUS says what he says, and it's like it's a big nothing.Y'all are fools.
So I didn't read this story on Fox, but it rings true.TV executive panics that Trump winning means press has little influence.Mainstream media is dead. You'd have to almost conclude, wouldn't you?
Especially, there's a decent chance that Trump is going to overperform so much in Florida, do so much better than he's done in California in the past, in Texas, that he is not only going to win the presidency, he's going to win the flat-out freaking vote.
I mean, he's just plain going to have more people vote for him overall.He'll win the Electoral College and the popular vote.
i'm not a marxist but i do like tearing down the system of mainstream media and i would love to see people's heads explode if that happens
If Trump wins the Electoral College and the general election vote, you can't just lean on, we've got to do it with the Electoral College, it's clear, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.Nope, he just flat out got more votes.
How would you not conclude that mainstream media is dead in its current configuration?It's got to start doing it differently, which is what Jeff Bezos was saying at the Washington Post.We've got to start doing things differently.
completely differently in some ways, because they have gone all in, not just like 60-40, 70-30, even 80-20.It's really practically 95-5 on promoting one candidate over the other, and you still got your asses kicked.
So at that point, how do you feel relevant at all?
and uh... to uh... you know abuse thomas jefferson from time to time the tree of liberty must be watered with canceled subscriptions i guess you know it's amazing from just from a human psychology standpoint and tell me if i'm wrong folks to be as wildly out of touch
as the mainstream media is, we've talked about it so many times, how the view they give you of what America is and what America thinks is like a funhouse mirror, but to be so wildly out of touch and be completely unaware of it, to the point that you get the result that Jack's talking about after the election, they're just, they can't even believe that
The America they've been describing to us didn't go the way they wanted.
I mean, it'd be like walking into a big room full of people in full San Francisco 49ers regalia and just be going on and on about how the Niners suck and their fans are stupid and nobody likes them and blah, blah, blah, and be unaware of what you're doing.
I mean, that is some serious blindness.Of course, anybody who's studied history knows entire populations can go in for things that are utterly abominable.You can convince and bamboozle, bribe and tempt soft-headed humans to do about anything.
So I'm looking at Joaquin Castro.Remember him?Representative from Texas who ran for president same year Kamala did.Was he the guy who tried that ham-handed Biden, his senile ploy?He lasted about as long as Kamala did that year.
But he's up there on CNN.It says Hispanics rallying against racist terms at Trump rally.So day five of covering that comedian's jokes.The leaf that fell in the forest.Day five!To David Axelrod's point, that's your closing argument?
Obscuring anything else Kamala Harris wants to say?Okay, fine, go ahead.I'm all for it, since I want her to lose.
So, speaking to the media, I came across this, the fabulous Andrew Stiles at the Free Beacon is talking about this garbage election will be over in four days, God willing.And he goes through if Kamala Harris wins and if Trump wins.
And if Kamala wins, his main point is the mainstream media will congratulate themselves for saving democracy.For many journalists, it will be the best thing that will ever happen to them for the rest of their miserable lives.
But then he says, and he's quite right, and we saw this post 2020, that without the great monster to rail against.
They will be, they will hemorrhage money, because nobody wants to hear about how meanhouse Republicans are a bunch of Nazis for voting down some obscure Harris-Schumer Common Sense Solutions Act of 2025.
There's just no drama in it, so it'll be terrible for them if Kamala wins, business-wise, which I think is true.But here's the part I really liked. And this is 100% right.
If Trump wins, millions of college degree holders will suffer screeching mental breakdowns.We'll witness a collective tantrum the likes of which the world has never known.
I know.It's going to be as if I'm dipped in a vat of schadenfreude on Tuesday night if it goes the way I think it's going to go. I mean, it's gonna be just, I'm just gonna lay there in my schadenfreude rolling around warm and happy all night long.
Shameless like Caligula of old.I know.
Yeah.I have been, I think it'll be like the two, I think just two actual riots I've been present for.And both times I had the same feeling.This is awful, but it's really interesting. This is something to witness.
And I think that the mass freakout is going to be a lot like that.Michael, did you want to say something?Yeah, Jack said that 2016 was one of the greatest nights.This could be better.
This is going to be better.This could be better than the greatest night of my life.
Yeah, our lives professionally will be slightly more difficult if Trump wins.I agree.Just because, hey, I'm going to be honest with you, it's much easier to rail against the evils of the sitting administration.
I mean, it's just, it's effortless.
Yeah, Rush Limbaugh was at his best when you had a Democrat in the White House. Oh, yeah.
Yeah.And our pledge to you is if Trump wins and the Trump administration screws up, we're going to say, hey, they screwed up.It's what we do.So like it or not, that's what we're going to do.
But anyway, my pledge is we're going to talk a lot less about politics here soon, I hope.
Oh, yeah.Amen to that.Anyway, but back to styles, because I think this is so good.Let's see the collective trauma.There will be a bunch of headlines about how America chose fascism.
A bunch of celebrities will insist they were serious about leaving the country, but never followed through beyond changing their official residences to some offshore tax haven.
Journalists will anoint themselves again as guardians of democracy, only harder.
Their behavior will grow increasingly stupid, perhaps to the point where they start doing sittings on the White House lawn or reading the Constitution in Guy Fawkes masks.
are quitting their jobs to go live on a compound with armed separatists in California.And no one will ever ask Kamala Harris to run for public office ever again.Either way, it should be fun to watch.
Oh, if Trump wins, how many Democrats don't attend the inauguration?First of all, before we ever get close to that, how many Democrats refuse to accept the vote?Sure.Yeah.
Yeah. What time is it?Yeah, we should probably take a break.I got all sorts of stuff I want to get to.
I want to talk about how Ford is pausing, perhaps forever, the F-150 Lightning electric truck because people just don't want it. and another big blow to the electric car industry.
Hey, I want to throw in one more thing.I almost forgot about it.
Speaking of the whole garbage deal, which was what spawned the whole preceding conversation, there are five very close Senate races and Fox News reached out to the five Democrat senators or candidates
Actually, they're all sitting senators, come to think of it, for a comment on Biden's remarks.And they did not go with the, hey, he misspoke and blah, blah, blah.They all went with like Tammy Baldwin.
Tammy Baldwin does not agree with President Biden, her campaign spokeswoman said.Tammy's fighting for all Wisconsinites, no matter who they are and who they vote for.
Let's write that handful of governor, senator, candidates on the left that have Trump in their ads.I'll work with Trump.Oh, the fascist dictator who's going to end the country?You're going to work with him, huh?
You must not feel the same way about him as Kamala Harris, apparently.
Yeah.Maybe it's just political practicality, but they're not trying to explain the remark.They're just openly disagreeing with it.
Much more on the way.Hey, you can text us anytime you want.Text line 415-295-KFTC.

New York Mayor Eric Adams spoke today at the NYPD recruit graduation ceremony.It's wild to think that someday one of those fresh young faces could be the one who finally takes Adams into custody.
That's a decent enough political joke, I guess, although feels like lawfare to me a little bit.
Couple of Elon things before we move into something that Elon really played a major role in, electric vehicles, and how they ain't quite catching on like people thought they would.But first, Elon, this from the Washington Post.
I just thought their take on this was, well, typical of left-leaning views of government.
Elon Musk is enthusiastic about the potential to bring his slash-and-burn business philosophy, honed at Twitter and Tesla, to dramatically cut the federal government under Trump.Critics see potential conflicts of interest.Holy cow.
His slash-and-burn philosophy, which, you know, are negative terms you use to describe what you have to do to keep your business prosperous.
well trying to describe them as wanton destruction uh... and that is never allowed in the government where you are allowed to do the sort of thing where you say this doesn't make any sense why do we still do it that'll be slash and burn because people lose their jobs conflicts of interest
How about the conflict of interest with the taxpayer that is the never-ending growth of the money-squandering, money-borrowing colossus, the unstoppable colossus, that is the federal government?
When was the last time you wrote about that conflict of interest, WaPo?Actually, they write about the debt fairly frequently.But nobody seems to care about it! Well, or all the various... Conflict of interest!
I'd like to bring the interest of my fist in conflict with your jaw!Wow!
That wasn't a great metaphor, but the point is I want to punch you in the head.I feel like that's off the rails.
Okay, enough on that, because I want to run out of time.You had another Elon thing before I move on to the electric vehicle?
Yeah, listen to this shiznizzle, will ya?This is Wired.com, which is well-read, young, techie-oriented, Elon Musk could have U.S.citizenship revoked if he lied on immigration forms.
Now they're trying to cook up that Elon as a young immigrant to the U.S.worked and then lied about it.Going after an African-American.That's right, targeting an African-American.That he lied about it and therefore his citizenship should be revoked.
as that same side of the aisle lets in millions of strangers, including thousands of Venezuelan gangbangers.You want to kick Elon Musk out of the country?
And so you're the party of open borders calling the other side fascist.You're going to kick out the world's richest man because you don't like his politics.All right.
The leader in electric cars and space travel, okay.
Speaking of electric cars, from the Wall Street Journal, Ford motored a pause.We'll see if it's paused or shut down.F-150 Lightning production until mid-January at least.I wouldn't be surprised if it just never comes back.
Ford in August said it was scrapping plans for an electric three-row sport utility vehicle, citing pressure on battery-powered cars, as in And nobody wants them.
Automakers have poured billions of dollars into developing and churning out more electric vehicles, even as their new models continue to generate steep losses.
Ford, which is one of the very few legacy automakers to separately report results from its electric vehicle business, the other ones don't.So GM and whoever else, they don't separate them out.
So it's not as obvious to everybody that this is bleeding us dry.The only way we're making any money is on our, you know, our big gas-powered, diesel-powered SUVs.That's where our money's being made.So don't even separate it out, but Ford does.
And they have been, as it says here, battery-powered models have been piling up on dealer lots.
all across the country so it just it's just not a demand it's just not practical and it's not clear at all that it's environmentally beneficial right there's that in in it's a totality and again i am completely agnostic on that question if i became convinced that yeah electric vehicles are clearly better for the planet i'm all in
You know, given their limitations and all, for whatever situation where they're appropriate, but I'm all in.I have no interest in defeating electric vehicles out of some animus toward them in general, but they haven't made the factual case.
Right.Yeah, so it's rough on all ends.People, for whatever reason, culturally don't want them. and we don't know how we generate the electricity, which gets to your not even sure it'd be better for the planet anyway.
Coming up, PayPal knows your pant size and it's telling everyone.
And Nate Silver says they're fudging the polling to try to keep this race close.

I had the right word.Analytical genius.Ha!That's a first.As I just heard Charles Payne on Fox say exactly what you said earlier right after the information came out.
So the big economic news of the day is the jobs report came out and while they were expecting 113,000 jobs to be created, It ended up being less than that, in that it was about 12,000.113,000 expected, 12,000 actually happened.
I don't remember ever hearing expectations being missed by that much on any big number.
Well, it's like you're at a job interview and you say, I'm going to need at least $150,000 a year.And they say, you know, we're thinking $9 an hour.Or like when I get on the scale and expect to be $175,000. I have a wow that's missing expectations.
I have I have an old-timey scale cuz I like accurate.That's funny I was in a nice hotel room not long ago It had your spring scale on it.
Those things are worthless I don't even know why they sell them, but I got on it had me at 168 so it wasn't even like within 20 pounds Stolen that scale and brought it home
Anyway, I've got like a scale like you used to have at the doctor's office with the heavy thing you move to the right or the left or whatever and you can regularly calibrate it to make sure it's accurate.Anywho, I had a point.
Oh, it'd be like if I set it at 175 and it went clank, you know, it slammed up to the top.
My expectations were off.So, um, and the, all the reporting is because of the jobs came in so much below expectations because of the hurricane and the big labor strike.And Charles Payne on Fox just said exactly the same thing Joe said.
And he said that this is dumb.You think the people that make these projections never heard about the hurricane or the labor strike?
That doesn't make any sense.
That's the weakest explanation ever.This is what they do for a living.
They take in all the different factors that could possibly contribute to what a number is going to be and factor them in to their prediction, including things like biggest hurricanes in the last 50 years, for instance.
And famous strikes, everybody's talking about.
Yeah, what a load of crap.
Now, I still don't know if it helps Trump or hurts Harris or makes any difference to anybody.That particular thing doesn't really matter.So yesterday's 24 hour flap, and I don't know, maybe it'll last longer.
Mark Cuban, the billionaire who's, uh, came out and endorsed Kamala earlier this week was on the view and was talking about women and Trump and that sort of thing.
Donald Trump, you never see him around strong, intelligent women ever. It's just that simple.They're intimidating to him.He doesn't like to be challenged by them.
And, you know, Nikki Haley will call him on his nonsense with reproductive rights and how he sees and treats and talks about women.I mean, he just can't have her around.It wouldn't work.
Boy, there was a lot of crap there.
Yeah.And so a whole bunch of strong women that either vote for Trump, like Trump or were in Trump's orbit came out.Here's some of them.I don't know if you recognize the voices.We'll tell you who they were later.
If you are a school teacher, if you are a US military member and you're a woman and a Trump supporter, then to Mark Cuban, you are stupid and weak.It's a disgrace and Kamala Harris stays silent.
Cuban's words are mean, sad and misogynistic.
Just a hunch, but I bet on election day, strong, smart women will remember.I'm proud to join the millions of smart, intelligent women who will stand with Donald Trump this Tuesday.
So Sarah Huckabee Sanders there at the end, governor of Arkansas, Riley Gaines was in there, Trump's campaign manager, who is a woman who has said nothing this entire campaign.Interesting.
Oftentimes in presidential campaigns, the campaign managers like the head surrogate on all the talk shows, but Trump's woman has said nothing to anybody till yesterday.And she said, uh, hello.Um, any who, is this matter to anybody?
Is this a real flap?I don't know.Cuban says, I'll stick up for, I'm not sticking up for him.I'll just pass along what he said.
Well, I'm not a strong, smart woman, so I hesitate to say how significant it is or isn't.Because I don't feel the insult.
Cuban said, when I said this during the interview, I didn't get it out exactly the way I thought it did, so I apologize to anyone who felt slighted or upset by my response.
As I said, it wasn't about Trump voters, supporters, or employees, current or former.Well, then who is it about?And I set myself up for the six-second soundbite.No excuses.Can't nail every interview.My skin is thick enough.
You know, I appreciate that fairly manful statement.Here's the problem, and it has nothing to do with Mark Cuban specifically, I guess.Well, I guess it does.I don't know, probably.
And that is yet another condescending, judgment-based argument for why you should vote one way or the other.He offered me nothing. Just like Joe Biden saying the only garbage I see is fascists, Jim Crow 2.0, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
It's all condescension and judgment. We're going to condescend our way to victory.We're going to shame black men into voting for Kamala Harris.We're going to shame white women into voting for Kamala Harris.
We're going to shame all sorts of people into... All right, we've had enough.
We've had enough of the judgment.Does anybody vote for a particular candidate ever because somebody told you you're a bad person if you do?
maybe i don't know that the rest of your week if you know most of the strategy shirt are you a nazi are you gonna vote for kamala harris yeah okay now we know from texts and emails that none of you want to hear a word about any particular poll but overall the art of polling
continues to be interesting here's nate silver who was a bc's go to pollster for quite a few years run in five thirty eight organization he started and then he left that has his own thing now he's pretty outspoken about the world of polling and he's considered one of the best at it anyway is on a podcast here's what he had to say i kind of trust pollsters less this they all every time a pollster oh every state is
It's just a plus one.Every little, every single site's a tie.No, you're hurting.You're cheating.You're cheating.Your numbers aren't all going to come out at exactly one point leads when you're sampling 800 people over dozens of surveys.
You are lying.You're putting your finger on the scale.I will not name names, but some pollsters are really bad about this.
So polling guru Nate Silver lashed out at other survey junkies in his field for cheating in the final stretch, accusing them of recycling results to keep the race between Trump and Kamala Harris close for their audience.
Now that's either because you think a close race is more exciting and you get more eyeballs or because Trump's winning and that's not good for a lot of your viewers who that turns them off.
The FiveThirtyEight founder said irresponsible pollsters were herding their numbers or using past results to affect current ones.We talked about this a little earlier in the show.Herding their numbers like you would herd cattle?
Yeah, I can re-explain that because I heard Chris Stierwalt use that term in talking about this yesterday.
I didn't know this, but I guess in polling, it's really expensive to do good polling, and if you have a poll in the field and you're starting to get results back and they're way out of line,
with what other polling is sometimes you think oh we've got our methodology wrong we've got a obviously we've got something wrong here let's not waste more money on this let's fix our algorithm and then put the poll back out there well by definition either on purpose or just because of what i just described you could have polls missing movement trying to get in line with past polls
Right, so you don't publish an embarrassing quote-unquote outlier.
Yeah, so it could work both ways.You could either have like herd mentality where you're not on purpose following but you are, or you could push polls that direction because you want to result
that's more in line with the other polls, or because you want it to be a little closer for one candidate, because that's better for your network, there's lots of reasons you could.
Right, right.I hope I'm not stealing anybody's thunder, but I had a light bulb go off in my head.And for what it's worth, I've known people in the polling industry, and a lot of you are suspicious of them.
It's not that they're biased, it's that they're wrong.I mean, with the Trump thing, The classically accepted definition of somebody who probably won't show up at the polls, millions of those people showed up and surprised everybody.
That's why Trump overperformed so much.But anyway, having said that, these people are desperate to be right.They make their living being right.But it just occurred to me mathematically, and Jack, you know more about this than me,
But it's practically impossible, if you have a margin of error of plus or minus three percent, that over and over again the results would be within one percent.That's exactly what he's saying.
Okay.It's exactly what he's saying.Wouldn't it be a randomized... Yes.Spread?Yes.Sometimes three high, sometimes three low and everywhere in between.That's what the margin of error means.
So yeah, he said they are all, every time a pollster says, oh, every state is still plus one or whatever, the state's a tie.He said, no, you're effing hurting.You're cheating.You're cheating.
Your numbers aren't going to all come out exactly one point leads when you're sampling 800 people over dozens of surveys with a plus three minus, uh, Wow.Marge of error, you're lying.You're putting your effing finger on the scale.
Now, whether that is for partisan reasons or or just you don't want to, as I said, publish the quote unquote embarrassing outlier poll.
Wow, how interesting.And in most situations, you really don't want to have the outlier poll that's in favoring Trump.You really don't want that.Silver's own models put Trump ahead of Harris 55 to 45 in terms of likelihood of winning.
He's just doing a overall odds of winning.He has Trump 55, Harris 45, which of course, you know,
hair that that's a good lead for trump but obviously if you got a forty five percent chance of something happening it could happen quite easy oh yeah i have five had a forty five percent chance of winning the lottery i'd be very excited indeed okay well that's great i appreciate uh... mister silvers honesty there is calling out the other other posters we need more that america's running with the herd and more speaking your mind uh... i can't wait to speak my mind on a couple of uh...

I had candy for dinner last night because it was Halloween.
Oh, I would feel so miserable if I did that.
I did.I did.I went two big peanut butter cups.Then I had a full Snickers bar.That was my healthy food because it had peanuts in it.Then I had just a classic Hershey's chocolate bar to top her off.Yes, Katie?
I just want to let you know, our listener Joe heard you say that earlier and came at me on Twitter and said, you better light him up for only candy for dinner, but God forbid a bag of chips, Jack.Right, right, right, right.Yeah.
Are you an anti-chipist?Is that a, oh, the ultra processed foods?Yeah.I don't.Okay.All right.Uh, you just have to learn to live with the enigma that is Jack.
What we all need to learn to live with, most of us, some of you are super disciplined, is if it's around, you're so much more likely to eat it than if it's not.Would I have eaten peanut butter cups if they weren't in my home?Of course not.
Was I going to get in my car and drive to the store and purchase peanut butter cups?No.So do you have a bunch of candy bars left over?
Oh, boy.And they're the king size.
Yeah.Some homeless guy's about to get a pillowcase full of candy.That's what's going to happen.Wow.Well, good for him, I guess.Here you go, Methy Joe.
Enjoy your day. So he says desperately trying to move on.Sociologically, never mind politically, one more reason we've got to deny the progressives the seats of power.

What was your plan?We're looking for ex-doctors who still have the drugs around.Yeah.To put us into medically induced comas until after the election.
That's correct.You were a bad doctor last in your school, your class at medical school.You lost your license, but you got some of the drugs around.Yeah, I'd appreciate it.Just put me out for like the next four days or so.
So it's funny, I feel so motivated to talk about this and yet I'm just not in the right frame of mind, but there are a couple of notable stories, one in Chicago and one in the UK of all places, that both involve
Muslim illegal immigrants in the case of the Chicago shooting of a Jewish man merely for being Jewish.
I didn't realize they had nailed down the immigration status because they kept the name quiet, they kept the religion quiet, and then there were people saying, how come we haven't heard anything about the immigration status?So now it's a
he's a muslim with a muslim sounding name and illegal kept all those things quiet well who's that twenty two-year-old mauritanian muslim and who's detained and released san diego sector that's correct who was yelling allah akbar in a shootout with police after shooting and uh... jewish fellow
Yeah, which was a detail that some people are denying or trying to keep out of the story, the discussion.
And that's the commonality between this abhorrent religion-based hate crime in Chicago and the stabbings of the little girls in England, specifically Southport.
The guy who did that, who the authorities and the press denied over and over again was any sort of jihadi or Muslim or whatever, it's finally come out that he had ricin and al-Qaeda training materials.
And only a moron would say, wow, therefore every Muslim is a murderer and wants to stab little girls.And virtually nobody on earth leaps to that idiotic conclusion.
This is more example, if we need it, of the utter condescension of the left toward anybody who isn't them.They think we're all cavemen running around grunting brutishly and can't think.But the absolute dishonesty
Of any time a white woman looks askance at a black man, we've all got to talk about it for two weeks.And racism toward black people is abhorrent, for the record.It's abhorrent and ugly.But the slightest hint of it, that President
makes a statement from the Oval Office, the slightest hint, yet Jews get gunned down by Muslims and we're all told to go about our business, there's nothing to see here.
I don't want those people in power anymore, whether they're in the media or the government.I don't know what to do about the media, I cherish the First Amendment, but by God, I'll fight them till I'm dead.
That is something.I mean, you talk about a double standard.And imagine, remember how this story would have been covered 20 years ago, 23 years ago, shortly after 9-11?Yeah, appropriately.Appropriately, yes.Yeah, yeah.
How about the people killed by the, and thank God the Jewish man in Chicago survived barely, although his life will be changed forever.He will feel terrible emotional and physical pain until his dying day.It's worth remembering.
But if our country is going to survive and thrive, the one thing we must have is the truth.We can't have the power brokers of information utterly dedicated to distorting and hiding the truth all the time.I won't have it.
I don't know what to do about it again except to fight it.
but it's it's it's utterly unacceptable according nbc chicago police said during a meeting with the group monday that the guy did shout out a lot more will firing at officers i mean if that's the case it's as clear-cut as can be what we're going over if you ever miss any chunk of your strong and get a show you can get it by a podcast armstrong you get the on-demand better to subscribe thank you for being here
