Hey, it's Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity.
Sean's in London.
He'll do the show tomorrow live from London, so don't miss that.
Normally, you hear me on our big flagship station here in New York, WOR, or you can get my podcast, wherever you get podcasts.
Speaking of which, one of my favorite podcasts every day is Lou Dobbs podcast, The Great America Show.
You should be listening every day.
President Trump was on this week, The Great America Show, Lou Dobbs' new podcast, and he's with us right now.
Lou Dobbs, how you doing?
Well, I'm doing great, Mark.
Great to be with you.
Hey, the president in Texas, it was great to see him comfort these families and do whatever he could.
But when I see these Democrats, Buffalo, Texas, horrible tragedies.
But where is their concern for the 19,000 people shot on the streets of our cities all week, all year because of these crazy DAs and their no bail, no jail?
Where's the concern for that?
Well, there's no concern at all.
I mean, George Soros said, let there be freedom for the violent criminal and DAs all over the country from Missouri to California, as you know, implementing it.
It's just unconscionable to think that we have a system of justice right now that is utterly broken, and it's by design by the leftist Democrats.
And this is 2022, Soros style.
Yeah, but Chicago, they have two of these Texas things on their streets every weekend, and nobody says a word.
And it's great to pass these gun laws, but for politicians, it's just a gimmick, something to do, and then they go back to sleep.
So what's the point?
Yeah, exactly.
And when you listen to Kamala Harris and you listen to Biden, all of their drama and nonsense, I mean, it's just more political theater.
And you know that it's not about fixing the problem.
It's not about preventing more tragedies.
It is about a political agenda and just really giving the media something of a sop to the tragedy and the political theater plays out.
You didn't hear a single one of these elected officials talk about mental illness.
You didn't hear a single one take to account the fact that a door was open and unlocked and the killers stepped right through it.
There was no armed special resource school security guard.
What are people thinking?
And why would there be no knowledge whatsoever in that school, its counseling system amongst its teachers, that this young killer had two parents, both were felons, and a grandparent who was also a felon.
He was from two broken homes, and he was a disaster in terms of the potential to be a danger to society, and everyone apparently simply ignored those what should have been, it seems to me, very clear and present dangers.
Yeah.
Sandy Hook, too.
You see a kid who had all kinds of problems on all those weird drugs, should have been flagged.
And in New York, we have a red flag law where you can be denied a gun, and they forgot to apply it to the kid who shot up the people in Buffalo.
So where's the governor to be held accountable for that?
Well, the governor should be held accountable for it.
But the Democratic Party doesn't hold anybody accountable for anything.
I mean, look at everything from Michael Sussman.
What?
You know, convict one of our own?
Are you crazy?
And the D.C. jury lets the guy off.
As a matter of fact, I can't think of a single instance where the Democratic Party has held anyone to account for atrocious governance and disastrous policies.
This inflation, this gas price, this is a brutal, cruel tax on every working family.
They say in some cases $400 or $500 extra a month.
It's killing everybody, bankrupting people.
Where's any Democrat to speak out about this?
There is not a one speaking out about it.
But other than the fact that at least they have quieted down about calling it transitory, now it's hyperinflation.
We're in double digits.
Whether the next number reflects that or it's the one after, it's going to be double-digit inflation without any question.
And most importantly, energy and food prices, which are the center of every budget for a working man and woman in this country, it's just they're going through the roof.
And this president of ours, who is impaired and is unconscionable in his lack of empathy for all of those millions of middle-class and hardworking families in this country, they are really, really in pain here.
And these Democrats, if they don't understand it now, it's going to be a tsunami in November because they are behaving as if it were all a joke, taking nothing seriously, and again, holding no one to account.
But you really think it'll be a tsunami?
You know, I've talked to somebody in San Francisco.
It was the most beautiful city in America.
Now it's a disaster, homeless everywhere, crime everywhere, that city's destroyed.
But those Democrats, they're keep electing more Democrats.
Well, I think that San Francisco will stay Democrat as long as there's such a thing as a Democrat.
But that's also a cultural issue there as much as anything.
I think New York will also remain Democrat, but the rest of the country and independents, like never before, are polling decisively Republican in this election.
That's very bad news for the Democrat Party.
Now, that also raises another question.
Why isn't Biden more concerned?
Why aren't the Democrats more concerned?
And that makes me then worry that they think that they have the ability to carry off another 2020 in 2022.
Yeah.
Lou Dobbs has a great podcast, every day, The Great America Show.
You talked to President Trump the other day.
What did he have to say about 2024?
Well, he didn't offer much.
He said he did say that he thought I would like his answer when it comes time to answer, which I took as a positive sign, but not the declaration that I would prefer to have been.
Right now, the country, if there's ever been a case of buyer's remorse, even Democrats who voted for the disaster in the White House have to be begging President Trump to run again.
It's astonishing if you have the media totally corrupt cover-up, what you can get away with from inflation to Hunter Biden scandals to how many lies has Joe Biden been caught in just this week, the Naval Academy, all that stuff.
When you talk about five policemen were killed by the insurrectionists, as he called them, on January 6th, no one mentions it.
It's not even worth dealing with.
It used to be in local news, at least, people would carry some sort of a series of spots as sound of the Biden gaps and nonsense.
They don't even bother anymore.
It's just who he is.
It's what it is.
And they know there's no relief until there's another election.
And what do you think?
Will he run for a second term?
Is that possible?
Biden?
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't think that's possible at all.
He may want to.
That's what's really amazing.
But with Kamala Harris and Joe Biden right down the top two jobs in this government, the most powerful people in this government, in the country, I just can't imagine the Democratic Party even, as woeful as it is and craven and cynical.
I can't imagine them after witnessing how they perform that they would dare put them forward for re-election.
I don't know.
I mean, if you think Pete Buttigieg is qualified or Jennifer Granholm or any of these people, who knows what they'll do next.
Well, but that's just further confirmation of what they are.
Butigej is a joke.
Granholm, I once actually thought was a pretty decent governor in her early term.
She has turned into as big a joke as the rest of these Biden acolytes, or if you will, extensions of the Obama administration's third term.
I don't know what to make of them because they've all become dysfunctional, disinterested, it seems, and completely, completely inept.
Well, Lou Dobbs, great talking to you.
Everybody should listen to, he does an excellent podcast.
It's The Great America Show.
You can get it wherever you get podcasts.
Getting choked up talking about it, but follow Lou Dobbs on Twitter and check out the podcast, The Great America Show.

And of course, watch Hannity every night at 9 on the Fox News channel.
And we'll take your calls next.
Hey there.
I'm Mary Catherine Hammond.
And I'm Carol Markowitz.
We've been in political media for a long time.
Long enough to know that it's gotten, well, a little insane.
That's why we started Normally, a podcast for people who are over the hysteria and just want clarity.
We talk about the issues that actually matter to the country without panic, without yelling, and with a healthy dose of humor.
We don't take ourselves too seriously, but we do take the truth seriously.
So if you're into common sense, sanity, and some occasional sass, you're our kind of people.
Catch new episodes of Normally every Tuesday and Thursday on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen.
I'm Ben Ferguson, and I'm Ted Cruz.
Three times a week, we do our podcast, Verdict with Ted Cruz.
Nationwide, we have millions of listeners.
Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, we break down the news and bring you behind the scenes inside the White House, inside the Senate, inside the United States Supreme Court.
And we cover the stories that you're not getting anywhere else.
We arm you with the facts to be able to know and advocate for the truth with your friends and family.
So down with Verdict with Ted Cruz now, wherever you get your podcasts.
Hey, welcome back.
It's the Sean Hannity show.
Mark Simone here.
Sean will be back tomorrow.
Can you imagine if there was no Hannity radio show?
Imagine if there was no Hannity on the Fox News channel.
Imagine if you had to depend on Lester Holt for the news.
Imagine if all you had was George Stephanopoulos or Chuck Todd to tell you what was going on.
You wouldn't know about inflation being so out of control.
Can you imagine if Donald Trump, if prices of gas went up 10 cents, it'd be the opening story for 10 minutes on every newscast.
It's now $7 a gallon in California.
Steve Moore just told us $6 where he is.
Barely on the news.
And if they have to, they'll do it once in a while just to say they did it.
It's at the end of the newscast.
It's 30 seconds.
Look at this Sussman trial.
Michael Sussman acquitted.
And that's because of the rigged news media.
When there's totally rigged news coverage, you can get away with a lot of stuff.
Biden can lie about this and that.
No coverage of the Sussman trial in mainstream media.
You could watch Lester Holt every night.
You wouldn't have seen anything about the Sussman trial.
They'll do it once at the end just to say they did it.
But you had a judge who had so many conflicts of interest on this.
And they clearly proved that he was guilty.
But because it wasn't front page news, because the world wasn't watching this trial, because there wasn't tremendous news coverage, this judge, this jury, they could do whatever the hell they wanted.
They could toss it out.
They could acquit him.
Had everybody been looking, it would have been a different story.
You remember the Manafort trial, Paul Manafort?
It was some kind of money laundering from 20 years before he even met Donald Trump.
He may have been guilty, but it was nothing relevant to anything.
It was the lead story on the news.
The first 10 minutes was the Manafort trial.
You remember the Roger Stone trial?
I still don't know what that was for.
Do you even know what it was for?
Supposedly he talked to the WikiLeaks guy, something like that.
But you remember when they arrested him, they launched an entire Normandy invasion on his front lawn.
Literally tanks and jeeps coming up his lawn.
They had boats in the inner coastal behind his house.
They had helicopters all to arrest this guy in his pajamas in the middle of the night.
It was all over the news.
It's all you heard about.
And what did Roger Stone have to do with the Trump campaign?
Just about nothing.
I think, you know, they're old friends.
I think Trump would talk to him on the phone once every couple of weeks.
That was about it.
He had no role in the campaign.
Now, in the case of this Sussman trial, he's working for the campaign.
And this is really serious business, this Russia hoax.
The trial gets no coverage.
And they're able to easily just toss the whole thing out.
We'll acquit him.
So that's what happens.
You remember they'd make up these fake lists of Donald Trump lies?
Washington Post, 7,163 lies.
Well, if you actually dug into it, 95% of them, you wouldn't even count as anything being a lie.
He would say in a speech, it's the greatest economy ever.
They would call that a lie.
They would check, and he said it 497 times in speeches.
So they counted that as 497 lies.
It's just cheerleading.
That's not a lie.
It's like if the coach says, it's the greatest team ever.
It's just, he's just saying it.
It's not a lie.
Now, Joe Biden does this all the time.
There's no fact checkers.
They're all on strike.
They don't work during the Biden administration.
There's no reporting.
No Washington Post keeping count.
You know, yesterday he made that speech where he said, this is the strongest, greatest economic recovery ever.
You could go to an insane asylum and nobody would believe you with that.
There's no coverage of that lie.
You heard that story about the Naval Academy?
He's speaking to the Naval Academy.
And he talked about the time he was going to join the Naval Academy.
And now he got the senator to write him a letter.
And he went into vivid detail about joining the Naval Academy.
Well, there's no truth to this at all.
There's no record of anything.
He's never tried to join the Naval Academy.
In fact, he wrote a long, long autobiography, every step of his life.
Never even mentioned this.
There's no fact-checking.
There's nobody pointing out any of his lies.
Remember, they used to attack Trump all the time.
Draft Dodger.
He got five deferments.
And he claimed he had, what did he claim he had?
Something with his foot.
You know that Joe Biden has five deferments, and he finally got out on a medical deferment saying he had asthma.
Again, he wrote a 500-page book every step of his life.
Never mentions anything about having any asthma.
In fact, if you read the book, he's a star football player.
He's a great athlete.
He's a lifeguard.
He's fighting corn pop.
There's nothing in there about any asthma.
You ever see them check to see if there was a guy named Cornpop back in Delaware?
I guarantee you there was no such guy.
Remember that?
My favorite.
Remember, he told that story about Angelo, the train conductor?
And how when Angelo said, sir, this is your millionth mile.
And they cried and they hugged.
And then they checked.
The few press that did check.
Angelo had retired 25 years before the story.
He had died 10 years before the story.
He just made it up.
Nobody says a word.
It's amazing what you can get away with when you're a Democrat.
Look at, I always ask these old-time reporters about Kennedy sleeping with Marilyn Monroe.
How come they never?
Well, it was a different era.
It was different back then.
It's because he was a Democrat.
Imagine if he was a Republican.
It would have been on the front page the next day.
Same thing with Watergate.
Had it been a Democrat, they would have said, bad security at the Watergate.
They left the door unlocked.
John Kerry making America green one Learjet liberal flight at a time.
You just can't make this stuff up.
Sean Hannity is on right now.
Yeah, Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity.
Sean will be back tomorrow.
John Kerry doing important work, warning the world that it could be a half a degree warmer within 100 years.
You know, what?
I mean, so what?
I mean, you know, people spend a fortune to go to Florida where it's 40 degrees warmer.
Let's say it went two degrees warmer in 100 years.
Does it really make a difference?
I'm a little chilly anyway.
Linda is with us.
Linda checking in and monitoring the show.
Linda.
I'm back.
And how are we doing so far?
I mean, I think it's great.
I think everything's going really well.
Oh, now wait till we get off the air.
What the hell was that?
No, everything's been great.
You've been doing such an awesome job.
Everything's been really good.
You know that story about the Mona Lisa that this crazy guy threw cake all over it?
No, I don't.
Linda, even when she's not here, keeping up on the news.
I don't know the story.
I don't want to lie to you.
I don't.
Oh, okay.
Well, you know what?
Probably a lot of people don't know.
The Louvre is where the Mona Lisa is.
And a guy comes in.
Now, he's all disguised as a little old lady in a wheelchair.
So everybody lets the little old lady in a wheelchair right up near the front of the crowd, right at the painting.
It turns out it's a guy.
He jumps up out of the chair, takes a cake, and throws it right at the Mona Lisa.
What?
Covering the paint.
Yeah.
Yeah, actually, it's horrible.
It's disgusting.
Now, the good news is they have that painting under glass.
It's actually bulletproof glass because people have, I didn't realize this, but over the last 40 years, somebody threw a rock at it once.
Somebody else tried to throw a chemical or something.
So it's under glass.
And there is video where they wipe the cake off and everything.
But it's.
Oh, my God.
It's horrible.
And no reason, just a random.
It's all good.
Oh, it was for a reason.
Oh, I can't wait to hear it.
The nutty guy.
It's about climate change.
Something about climate change.
Okay.
Now, you ever watch that?
I hadn't seen it in a long time.
If you watch The View nowadays, they are completely insane.
They're total lunatics now in The View.
Okay, this is assuming that they were ever sane, but go ahead.
They used to be just left-wing, way too far to the left.
Now they're just nuts.
So this Sonny Hostin, she's one of the viewpoints.
Oh, she said, no, this guy was justified, very justified.
It's important.
And he did a great service by bringing, everybody's talking about it.
He brought climate change to the front so it's being discussed.
And he did the right thing by doing that.
What?
Yeah.
So, and ABC, which is owned by Disney, is broadcasting this.
If you were in the Disney boardroom, wouldn't you say, do we have to promote trying to damage the Mona Lisa?
I don't think the guy knew there was glass on it, and they probably thought he was going to ruin the painting.
I'm just trying to figure out at what point when you get up in the morning, do you think, I'm going to dress up as an old woman.
I'm going to get in a wheelchair.
I'm going to buy a cake.
I'm going to throw it at the Mona Lisa because I'm going to save the planet.
Like, I'm just trying to figure out where these dots all connect.
You know, but that's, I mean, you can't figure out crazy, which is probably why Sonny Hostin understands him because she's as nuts as he is.
You know, the other thing about climate change, everybody would be glad to switch to an electric car when they're perfected in 10 years or 15 years or whenever they're great.
We'll all switch over.
But to try to force everybody now by driving up the price of gas, you know, remember when the cell phone first came out and you couldn't hear anything and you lost the signal every 10 seconds?
And the battery didn't last and it was the size of your head.
Yeah.
All those things.
So they didn't make the cost of a landline $8 million forcing you over to the cell phone.
That's actually a really good analogy.
Yeah, they waited 10 years until it was so good, people got one over immediately, happy to go over.
They got rid of the landline.
I actually, I mean, I don't actually think that's what's happening.
I mean, you know, my own pontification on all of this is that the same people that are, you know, corporate and invested in all of the green energy are the same people that are invested in big oil.
It's just where they're invested.
And I think they're making money out of, you know, both pots as far as I'm concerned.
And at the end of the day, until you can tell me that you can charge your electric car off of just the sun and not fossil fuels, there's really not a conversation to have.
Not to mention the fact that the Paris Climate Accord doesn't have the two biggest offenders even having to do anything to acclimate their own country's needs to even reach the standard that we're at right now for another 10 years.
We're talking about China and India.
I mean, it is astronomical.
It is, I don't even know what the number is.
I think it's like 100 times what we do here in our country.
We have to completely fulfill all of our obligations to the climate accord.
They don't have to do anything for another 10 years.
So what are we doing?
No, it makes no sense.
And nobody has made things worse pollution-wise than Joe Biden.
He switched off our oil, which is drilled in a very clean, very regulated way, to use foreign oil that's dirty as can be.
So he's caused more pollution.
Not to mention how much gas it takes to get it on the tankers across the oceans, how they're transporting it.
None of this makes any sense, but nobody's, it's like you were saying earlier, nobody's asking the hard questions.
They're just not.
No, and no media.
Otherwise, they'd say something.
Oh, God, no.
Sir, the pipeline seems to be the cleanest way to deliver oil.
Why would you shut that off and bring it by trucks and railroads?
That's dirty.
Nobody ever asked.
Not to mention the jobs, the thousands of jobs that we had in, you know, in the Bakken.
I mean, one of the things that we did here on the show was we did a Get America Back to Work campaign.
We were out in the Bakken, North Dakota.
And these people have spent their livelihoods, their entire lifetimes out there figuring out how to drill cleaner and safer through hydro fracking so that they don't damage the earth, so that they don't damage the environment around them and they're still able to extract clean oil.
And there is a difference.
There is a difference between different types of oil.
And I think that there are a lot of people that are experts in natural gas and oil.
And I would say 100% that no one in the Biden administration has any expertise in this area whatsoever.
And if there is one, please come forward.
And the other thing, as you say, drilling, you're hurting the earth.
That's the belief.
But if you switch to electric cars, and nobody ever mentions this, again, no news media, the batteries require these minerals that you have to strip mine the entire earth to get.
You have to tear up the earth to get these minerals.
And then when the battery is done, it's the size of the bottom of the car.
Where do you try to dispose of this battery?
You think nuclear waste is a problem?
So nobody in the media covers this, says a word about it.
And to play devil's advocate, Mark, everything you're saying is accurate.
But again, you know, this is our first attempt at an electric car.
This is our first attempt at doing something that doesn't take gas or oil.
So of course we're going to find our way here.
And I'm sure, you know, someday our kids are going to be like the Jetsons flying around in spaceships.
I have no doubt that that's going to happen at some point.
But we have to go through the various modules.
You know, I'm sure if we look back through history at all of the inventions and so many people and how many wrongs they had to do to make it right, we would say, oh, yeah, we've come a long way from that.
Like you said, with the cell phone.
But there is another option right now that I think also presents an opportunity for the American people.
And they should all contact their local legislators, which is if the UAW would agree to modify the gas tanks, our gas, our cars could take ethanol, it could take corn, it could take methanol, it could take all different types of natural gas.
But the UAW and the governments and the oil companies all have this strategic alignment.
And that alignment has nothing to do with the American taxpayer's pocketbook.
Not one.
That's a very good point.
Thank you.
But when you say call your leg, you know what happens if you call Chuck Schumer's office?
Oh, I know exactly what happens.
I call him often.
Yeah, and they'll say, is this about a donation?
No.
See, that's where you're wrong.
You always say, I am here to tell him what a good job he's doing.
Yeah.
I want to donate every last dollar that I have until you get all the way through to the top person.
Then you say, so here's what I'm really calling him.
Oh.
And then you break it in.
That's how you do it.
That's how you get through it.
Because listen, even as a member of the press, I try to reach out to people from various offices who shall remain nameless and try to get them on the show or ask them, why did you say that?
That makes no sense.
Or did you know that you voted for this before you voted against it?
Or did you know that you were one of the signers on this previous legislation?
And nobody wants to talk about that.
Yeah.
And I'm telling you, this is a real problem.
But again, people are far more interested in making their TikToks than they are in talking to their legislators.
Yeah.
You know, but when Kerry runs around, it could be a half a degree warmer.
You know, it was like 75 on Friday here in New York and now it's 93.
That's 20 degrees warmer.
So what?
I wear a different shirt.
Not killing me.
First of all, everything feels hot in New York.
It's disgusting in the summer.
It's 93.
Let's say it was 95.
That's going to make a difference.
What's the difference?
And then yeah, but they'll say, if he were here, he'd say, well, yeah, but the sea level, the ocean will rise.
He's got three houses on the water.
Obama just bought four houses on the water.
By the way, CNN moved its headquarters to on the water here in New York.
Yes, they did.
Hudson Yards.
Yeah, it didn't seem to bother them.
Yeah, I mean, listen, it's everything is, you know, for thee, not for me.
It's that whole let them eat cake mantra.
You know, they live and they die by it.
And the only time that they try to address it and say it's not true is if someone actually calls them on it.
But because of the fact that it's just an echo chamber on this left-wing media, it's basically impossible to get out to the American people.
Although I do feel with Elon Musk and Twitter, it's like you were saying, like, you know, your Twitter numbers are, you're no longer shadow banned.
You actually feel like you're reaching people.
Like, maybe we'll finally start to make a dent if some of these platforms actually do how are used the way they were intended to be.
Yeah.
Which would be great.
All right.
Let me give you today's survey question.
Okay.
You need a ride home.
Who would you want to drive you home?
Nancy Pelosi's husband or Joe Biden?
Who would you want to drive you?
Oh, my gosh.
I think Nancy Pelosi's husband any day of the week.
Yeah.
If you ask most people, would you get in a car being driven by Joe Biden?
They would not.
I wouldn't.
Listen, I don't think that Joe Biden can drive.
I don't think that Joe Biden can tie his shoes.
I mean, my whole thing is people are like, you have to be nice to him.
You know, it's elder abuse.
It's this and that.
No, it's not.
You decided to take the highest office in the land.
You've been doing this for 47 years.
This guy has been a creep his entire, his entire career in the Senate.
There's not a moment that I can look at in this guy's career and say, ah, he did all right there.
Not one time.
No.
And if you think for one second that any Republican could have a child that has done what Hunter Biden has done and not be talked about and ridiculed and run out of the swamp, forget about it.
The Clintons, the Bidens, that whole dynasty.
I mean, it's just whatever.
Anyways, no, I would have Nancy Pelosi's husband drive me every day of the week.
All right.
Speaking of gun control, you remember Hunter Biden threw away a gun once, a handgun and the Secret Service had to go find it and trash can he threw it.
Remember once he was stopped by the police?
They found a crack pipe, multiple driver's licenses, a badge.
Can you imagine if Don Jr.
was stopped and the inspection sticker expired?
It'd be front page news for three days.
I mean, think about Letitia James, who's, you know, was the attorney general here in New York.
I mean, her whole agenda, we have her on tape saying, if you elect me, this will be my sole purpose.
All I care about is getting the Trumps.
And I'm like, I'm sorry.
Have you seen what is happening in New York?
Have you seen what is happening to the people in New York?
We have crime waves like we haven't seen in decades.
And all you care about is going after the Trumps, which every time we do, I mean, my God, you talked about Mueller earlier.
I mean, we spent over $40 million on an investigation to find out, oh, guess what?
Nothing.
Absolutely nothing.
So we have $40 billion need going to Ukraine.
We're investigating false accusations, turning taxpayer dollars into nothing.
And what do we get out of it?
We can't give our babies formula.
Well, that worked out well.
Speaking of Ukraine, when you hear Biden always say, nobody needs AR-15.
Commit to you.
Oh, my gosh.
Right.
And then he's arming the Ukrainians.
Oh, give me a break.
Here's the guy.
Same guy left 300,000 guns on a runway in Afghanistan for the Taliban.
Here, they're yours.
Take them.
And you know what's so funny?
That's such an excellent point because we left billions of dollars in equipment.
And we have all of these, you know, people using our equipment, our machines, our weapons against our own SIVs, our own citizens, all of the interpreters and people and sources on the ground in Afghanistan who worked with our soldiers to help us.
And we just left them all behind.
And then we armed the enemy so that they could hurt us and them.
I'm like, nobody wants to talk about this, but we got, you know, but listen, we got our flags for Ukraine up in our yard and we feel really good about ourselves.
That's great.
I'm like, okay, so we can't feed our kids.
There's people dying in Afghanistan.
Nobody gave a crap about that.
And the guy was checking his watch as they pulled the bodies off of the 13 people that did die for our country there.
So, you know, I mean, I could go on and on.
Well, yeah, Joe Biden had dead bodies and the flag-draped coffins and he's checking his watch.
Disgusting.
But it's Joe Biden.
He's going, do I tell the Boe story now?
When do I tell the Boe story?
I mean, and the thing is, is that I think for most people, the loss of a child is a loss that nobody wants to feel.
And I don't, I don't wish that on anyone.
I mean, I think it's a tragedy.
I feel bad for, you know, his children that he left behind.
But to use it the way that Joe Biden does at every opportunity, I'm like, come on, man.
You know, that's when his phrase, come on, man, really does come into play.
Yeah, he also implies he died in Iraq.
Exactly.
He very skillfully implies it.
It's very well done.
And that's the part of me that's like, well, you're not that far gone.
You know, like when you were talking about corn pop.
Yeah.
You know, and like the hairy legs.
Really to listen to the show.
Look at that.
You knew about it.
See that?
I'm checked in.
I'm dialed up.
I'm listening.
You know?
Better be more careful then.
Well, we'll check in with you again later before the show's over.
Good talk.
It's you.
All right.
Take care.
