Jennifer Griffin
And we have some breaking news just in. President Trump just announcing on social media a 10 day ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon set to begin, he Sundays, in about five hours.
- [05:03]
Jack Armstrong
Interesting. I wouldn't think Israel would agree to a ceasefire with Lebanon unless they felt like they were really, really close to ending Hezbollah as a threat.
- [05:14]
Joe Getty
I suspect it's an agreement with the Lebanese government to make the point that Hezbollah is utterly lawless and not bound by anybody but Iran. I'm looking at some of the mainstream media analysis of it. It is precisely 180 degrees wrong. For instance, the New York Times. It's a development that could remove a major hurdle to the broader peace talks with Iran. Blah, blah blah. No pound Hezbollah out of existence. Kill the infection now. Kill it now and forever defeat Iran's proxies completely. Deny them their power.
- [05:45]
Jack Armstrong
Finish the job, which is what 2/3 of Israelis say and they don't like Netanyahu currently, he doesn't poll well. But 2/3 of Israelis say finish the job with Hezbollah.
- [05:56]
Joe Getty
Hezbollah has not commented on the claim of a ceasefire and is not cooperating with anything. So end them.
- [06:03]
Jack Armstrong
I don't know. I'll send you a message to your pager. Check your pager. Blow it. Your junk is blown off.
- [06:09]
Joe Getty
There goes my junk again.
- [06:12]
Jack Armstrong
Finish the job and blown off your junk. Okay, so the to the war in general proper against Iran. The current situation is with the blockade. Not a single boat has made it through. Not a single shot has been fired and no boat has had to be boarded. We have had to yell at a couple of boats, you better turn around. Turn around now. We mean it. And they've turned around, but for the most part that we haven't been challenged on the blockade yet. Jennifer Griffin reports on where things are then with the blockade and its effect on Iran.
- [06:45]
Jennifer Griffin
The Iranian economy is really on the verge of collapse. And if you take away the shipping, the oil tankers, there were nine oil tankers I think that were turned back. Those oil tankers are normally leaving the Kharg island and that area on a daily basis. And that's how they make their money. We spoke to one expert who said that if this goes on two weeks longer that the oil capacity, if they can't get the oil out of those ports, we saw this in Venezuela. If they can't get it out of those ports, they'll have to turn off their kind of oil pipeline and that backs up the whole system. And then really you're going to see the, the economic collapse come rather quickly.
- [07:28]
Jack Armstrong
Wow. I like her stating it so decisively. I assume that that's based on information she's getting from reliable sources there. Jen Griffin with Fox and other people have said the same thing. They're on the verge of complete collapse. My guess is, and who knows on this war is I think there's going to be a sudden it all falls apart and this is all going to look completely different immediately.
- [07:54]
Joe Getty
I think you're right 100%. And one of the parts of this I'm enjoying a great deal. I hope it doesn't go sideways. I don't think it will. But who knows is that China is in an incredibly difficult position. Xi Jinping hates the this because he's thinking, wow, this is great. You know, two weeks ago, he's thinking, oh, this is a perfect example. It really pants the United States, embarrassed them on the world stage, isolate them, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And now he's thinking, holy crap, we need that oil. And anybody who's like been an ally of China has learned this lesson bitterly. China don't care about nothing but China, not for a second. We have an actual moral obligation with our allies. China is entirely transactional. So I think the mullahs and the IR are about to find out just how good a friend China actually is as China's economy gets dragged down into the dirt because China faces the choice of all right, do we like really go chest to chest with the United States or do we just sacrifice Iran and we're back to the happy days. Please, easy decision.
- [08:53]
Jack Armstrong
I know Trump watches Morning Joe on msnbc. Did he get this idea from Richard Haas last week? Richard Haass one of your thinking tank people who suggested, and I mentioned this on the air, cuz I thought that sounds like a good idea. He mentioned on MSNBC what we should do is blockade the Strait of Hormuz so Iran can't get any boats in or out. That flips the script. And now, oh yeah, you want the strait closed. Now it's really closed because they were making lots of money while, you know, ships that are favorable to Europe and us couldn't get through. And he suggested that and like two, three days later, we did it.
- [09:33]
Joe Getty
You know, Haas isn't the only guy saying that, but you need to draw a line.
- [09:37]
Jack Armstrong
It's the first place I heard it said, yeah. And I know Trump watches that show because, you know, he talks on the phone with Scarborough all the time and they hate each other. Anywho, that doesn't really matter. This is working. And as we said, no ships have gotten through. A few have, like left port and like semi challenged us and this is the message we send to them. This is an actual recording.
- [10:03]
US Navy Announcer
All vessels are advised to immediately return to port if leaving and discontinue transit to Iran if that is your next port of call. Do not attempt to breach the blockade. Vessels will be boarded for interdiction and seizure transiting to or from an Iranian port. Turn around and prepare to be boarded. If you do not comply with this blockade, we will use force. The whole of the United States Navy is ready to force compliance.
- [10:23]
Jack Armstrong
Now, that last sentences something. First of all, I don't we send it to them in English and hope that they speak English or is it also going out in Farsi or That's
- [10:32]
Joe Getty
the international language, Commerce. Jack, everybody knows that the whole of
- [10:36]
Jack Armstrong
the US Navy is prepared to enforce compliance is a heck of a sentence.
- [10:42]
Joe Getty
I'd like to think if I was a naval man, I'd have been chosen for that, that assignment to, to issue that stern, stern warning.
- [10:49]
Jack Armstrong
That fellow did a nice job with your nice pipes.
- [10:51]
Joe Getty
Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Mr. And Mrs. Tehran and all ships at sea need to warn you. Entire navy is ready to enforce this action.
- [11:08]
Jack Armstrong
Turn around 15 pass the hour.
- [11:12]
Joe Getty
We'll have traffic and weather together on the sixes. Ain't no traffic because we got a
- [11:16]
Jack Armstrong
blockade on right now. Bachmann Turner overdrive.
- [11:21]
Joe Getty
Wow. Taking care of business. Well, well chosen.
- [11:26]
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, that is something. Apparently that landed the full power of the U.S. navy because the so far all the boats have turned around. I gotta believe like you said earlier, it's gotta be somebody. Try and see. Do they actually. Are they actually gonna shoot at us or board our boat? Somebody's gonna try it, aren't they?
- [11:44]
Joe Getty
As you said earlier, it's a suicide mission. They've got to get some IRGC dead ender. To what, take over an oil tanker and you know, oh, here's my strategy. This is evil. Does anybody know like Trump watches Morning Joe. Do the mullahs listen to us? I kind of doubt it. They'd probably find it very annoying.
- [12:03]
Jack Armstrong
I love the way they do the news, but with the jokes,
- [12:09]
Joe Getty
they don't seem to be beholden to one side or the other. They just see it, call it as they see it. I enjoy it. Although they are Satan, Durham, Armstrong and Getty. Yeah, thank you. That would be wonderful endorsement. It's like when Gavin Newsom called us a holes. I've never been prouder. Here's your insidious from the evil mind of Joe Getty plan. You get a couple of dead enders, you get rid of the crew, whatever, it doesn't matter. And you have them defy the blockade. Well, they'd get boarded though. Here was my insidious plan, which may be half baked. Well, it's almost certainly epic is you intentionally draw fire and cause an environmental disaster because you know how that would play in the American media.
- [12:56]
Jack Armstrong
You're right, it's funny. I was about to say, I think what we do is we say stop, stop, stop. You go any further, we're sinking you and we just put it at the bottom of the sea. But you're right, if it's an oil tanker, that would be an environmental disaster. It would get tremendous coverage.
- [13:12]
Joe Getty
Yeah, you got to board it like the. What was the Tom Hanks movie where I'm the captain now? Board it and take over the.
- [13:19]
Jack Armstrong
The ship. Take it. How do you do that with guns and helicopters?
- [13:24]
Jennifer Griffin
But you.
- [13:24]
Jack Armstrong
You just. You put a. Run a boat right up next to it and just jump on top of it and, like guns drawn and say, get away from that steering wheel.
- [13:35]
Joe Getty
Yeah, you lower. Like Navy seals or Special Forces guys on choppers.
- [13:39]
Jack Armstrong
All right. Yeah, that's an option.
- [13:40]
Joe Getty
Yeah.
- [13:41]
Jack Armstrong
Yeah.
- [13:42]
Joe Getty
With automatic weapons and the techniques of the United States military. And everybody poops their pants and says, you're the captain now.
- [13:50]
Jack Armstrong
I'd be exciting. Yeah, but you would. It would be practically a suicide mission.
- [13:58]
Joe Getty
Yeah, unless you're willing to throw up your hands and give up. But.
- [14:01]
Jack Armstrong
But then what's the point of challenging it? I guess to see if we're serious.
- [14:06]
Joe Getty
They can't be serious.
- [14:07]
Jack Armstrong
They can't be doubting whether or not we're serious.
- [14:10]
Joe Getty
They bombed 4,000 of your sites or 20,000 or 100,000, whatever it is. At this point, they seem serious. I would tell them all, from where I sit, they look pretty serious.
- [14:22]
Jack Armstrong
Right. Okay. So Jennifer Griffin said within two weeks, just physical reality would be they got to shut down their pipelines and everything like that because they're pumping oil. Where's it going to go? There ain't no place for it to go. And then, from what I understand, once you. When shutting down that equipment, you can't just turn it back on. It's. It's for reasons I don't know. Much, much, much more difficult than that to get it all ramped back up again.
- [14:47]
Joe Getty
You got to prime the pumps.
- [14:49]
Jack Armstrong
But that's two weeks, probably max, on the whole collapse of the regime. The peace talks this weekend, if they happen, could look much different than last weekend's where they are all tough and we ain't giving on anything. Take that and, you know, get on your camel and right out of town. But they might not be feeling quite
- [15:11]
Joe Getty
as cocky this week, and I stand by my words from earlier. Their surrender talks. We may not call them that publicly, but that is clearly what's happening now. One side has all the power, increasingly, and it's for the good of humanity. Katie has helpfully given me the transcript of the warning to the vessels. I don't know what approach I would take. I think, you know, because I'm a middle child, I try to bring people together. I'd probably go with all vessels. All vessels. All vessels, this is the United States Navy warship. You are approaching a blockaded area. Discontinue your transit immediately. You know, you draw more flies with honey than vinegar. I would start with a welcoming. Hey, I'm here to help you, not get your ass blown to kingdom come. Approach. Discontinue your transit immediately. Do not proceed further toward Iranian territorial waters or ports. Turn around and return to your port of origin. Home sweet home, huh? I'd throw that in the captain would look at me. What are you doing? Get back to the script, you idiot. Failure to comply with this warning will result in interdiction. You may be subject to boarding search and seizure. We will use force if necessary. Acknowledge on this channel, over. Oh, you left out the. The whole. The entirety of the United States Navy is ready to enforce this action. So it's kind of say, gary, I
- [16:43]
Jack Armstrong
warned you, quit ad living. So you want to go with kind of a bouncers. When the bars close, you don't have to go home, but you can't stay here.
- [16:52]
Joe Getty
Exactly. Hey, hope everybody had a great time. Thanks for coming to the Silver Bullet. You don't have to go home, but you can't stay here. Remember to tip your bartenders. They've been taking care of you all night. Have a great night, everybody. And then the bouncers eyeball everybody and see who needs a little elbow to the chops. Armstrong and Getty, Daily Mail.
- [17:17]
Commentator
Of course, Daily Mail. They release audio of Brian Gnomes dominatrix. Apparently he was very much the confidant of this. This is who we really talk to a lot, this dominatrix. And he had been telling her that he very much wanted to take the do the surgery and get the hormones and become a woman. He is now leading in the polls for the Democratic nomination for Donald Trump. And it's, you know, I feel for this guy. He's a nice guy, weird life. You know, one time she told Brian Noem to drink from the dog bowl. And he said, that's a little dangerous around here.
- [17:52]
Joe Getty
Oh, I get it.
- [17:53]
Jack Armstrong
So I missed this. So he was thinking about transitioning.
- [17:58]
Joe Getty
Well, at least that's what he was telling his bimbo. Ification model girlfriend. Okay, I don't know if he's serious or not.
- [18:07]
Jack Armstrong
And then I assume because we're about to hear a little bit of their conversations. Are we? Is that what we're going to hear?
- [18:12]
Joe Getty
Yeah. So he would get dressed up in his like gigantic balloon breasts, tight outfit, makeup, nipples point in different directions for some reason. You gotta consult your plastic surgeon, get your money back. Anyway, and so he would dress up like that and like talk to this, this pro about his fantasies and all.
- [18:34]
Jack Armstrong
Who was recording this, though?
- [18:37]
Joe Getty
Katie's got the handle on this.
- [18:38]
Katie
She was. She had another recording device on her phone and had him on speaker.
- [18:42]
Jack Armstrong
Does she record everybody?
- [18:44]
Katie
I don't know.
- [18:45]
Joe Getty
Probably.
- [18:46]
Jack Armstrong
Do they hold on to them to blackmail you later or. Why do they hang on to it?
- [18:50]
Joe Getty
To ensure excellent customer service. This call may be recorded. Now put the balloons under your shirt and let's get started.
- [18:57]
Jack Armstrong
One of your nipples is pointing straight north. What's the deal,
- [19:02]
Joe Getty
eh? What are you gonna do?
- [19:04]
Brian
So.
- [19:05]
Joe Getty
Yes. Yes, indeed. And these incredibly important recordings have come to light.
- [19:09]
Jack Armstrong
Jack, there's no reason we should hear these. We're about to. But there's no reason.
- [19:13]
Joe Getty
That's what I was. I was up for a careful and heartfelt ethical discussion. You apparently want to leap forward.
- [19:20]
Jack Armstrong
Well, if other people are playing them. But it is awful. I mean, it's like I. It's like my thing about the, you know, DUI cop footage. We. We don't need to see this and we don't need to hear this, but we're about to.
- [19:38]
Joe Getty
I vote no, for the record.
- [19:40]
Jack Armstrong
Okay, well, I'll vote yes. We need two people at least to vote yes. I'm a yes.
- [19:45]
Katie
Katie, do it.
- [19:47]
Jack Armstrong
I'm a yes. That's three. Why was she recording it, though?
- [19:51]
Joe Getty
Good, I get it both ways. I can pretend to be virtuous and hear it.
- [19:55]
Jack Armstrong
Yay.
- [19:55]
Joe Getty
I win.
- [19:56]
Jack Armstrong
Okay, here we go.
- [19:57]
Brian
You know what serendipity is?
- [20:00]
Shy Sotomayor
I've heard of it. I've seen some articles on it.
- [20:05]
Brian
I think we should go there for dessert. Yeah, and I would bow to you.
- [20:12]
Shy Sotomayor
What if people saw us together?
- [20:16]
Brian
I don't give a.
- [20:18]
Shy Sotomayor
Not even if you got recognized.
- [20:21]
Brian
I don't care. You know what I want?
- [20:26]
Jack Armstrong
What?
- [20:28]
Brian
To be seen with you.
- [20:29]
Shy Sotomayor
Yeah.
- [20:33]
Brian
I don't give a. About anything else.
- [20:35]
Shy Sotomayor
Yeah.
- [20:36]
Jack Armstrong
Is he.
- [20:36]
Brian
It's time we'd be seen together.
- [20:38]
Jack Armstrong
Is he working his man during this conversation?
- [20:41]
Joe Getty
Oh, good lord, sir, I have no idea. So the conversation was killing me.
- [20:47]
Jack Armstrong
So she knows who he is. She knows he's a high profile person. That's why she's recording it. That makes her an awful human being.
- [20:54]
Joe Getty
Her name is Shy Sotomayor. Any relation? Firing minds want to know.
- [21:00]
Jack Armstrong
She's recording this because he's high profile. So she can extort him or something. It ain't. Whatever her reason is, it ain't good. You expect more out of your bimbofication hired whatever she is.
- [21:13]
Joe Getty
Whatever happened to professionalism?
- [21:18]
Jack Armstrong
There's more.
- [21:19]
Joe Getty
But wait, it gets worse.
- [21:22]
Shy Sotomayor
You told me you loved Me, didn't you?
- [21:28]
Brian
I do love you.
- [21:29]
Shy Sotomayor
Do you? So much better than your wife, aren't I?
- [21:36]
Jack Armstrong
No. Not cool.
- [21:38]
Brian
You're so much better.
- [21:43]
Joe Getty
Corre.
- [21:43]
Shy Sotomayor
You can't live without me, can you?
- [21:46]
Brian
I can't.
- [21:49]
Jack Armstrong
Oh, my God.
- [21:52]
Joe Getty
This is way more sickening than I thought.
- [21:54]
Shy Sotomayor
Weak and desperate for me.
- [21:57]
Jack Armstrong
Yes.
- [21:57]
Brian
God. Thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.
- [22:04]
Jack Armstrong
See, I don't know how.
- [22:05]
Shy Sotomayor
Good boy.
- [22:06]
Jack Armstrong
I don't know how this is being portrayed. Oh, good boy.
- [22:14]
Katie
I'm having a physical awful reaction to
- [22:17]
Jack Armstrong
listening to that, but I don't know how this is being portrayed.
- [22:20]
Joe Biden
They love each other.
- [22:21]
Jack Armstrong
I don't know how this is being portrayed other places, but I'm coming away from this not in more in judgment of him. I'm in judgment of her. She's a horrible human being and she was dragging that out. You love me more than your wife. She had a game going on. She had a plan for this. Yeah, that was a question. Yeah, that was a bait question. And she's recording it and she's going to extort him or something. She's an awful human being. She should be. If anybody's going to be embarrassed and doxxed and outed, it should be her.
- [22:48]
Joe Getty
So this does not square with your experiences of good ethical bimbo vacation talks.
- [22:54]
Jack Armstrong
Oh, my God.
- [22:55]
Joe Getty
So that whole you love me more than you. Maybe that's a standard part of it. I have no idea.
- [23:00]
Jack Armstrong
I don't know. You tell us.
- [23:02]
Joe Getty
You're. I can't say you're wrong on that angle, but I have no idea.
- [23:08]
Jack Armstrong
Or what. I don't fully understand what the bimbofication thing is, but you're a good boy. Ew. That part was rough.
- [23:17]
Commercial Announcer
Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.
- [23:20]
Jack Armstrong
We are Armstrong and Getty, and this is the best weekend talk show in America.
- [23:24]
Joe Getty
Grab our podcast. It's called Armstrong and Getty on Demand. Clinging to life. Apparently, Joe Biden was, for some reason, invited to speak before Syracuse Law's graduation or something. Here he is.
- [23:38]
Joe Biden
I'm. Turn around one guy and say, Barack,
- [23:41]
Jack Armstrong
what are you doing? Come here, come here, come here, come here, come here.
- [23:52]
Joe Biden
I feel like. Like he should be standing on the right and I should be standing left.
- [23:57]
Jack Armstrong
Hey, did I just look at Barack?
- [23:59]
Joe Biden
Anyway, as I say, you've done good.
- [24:02]
Jack Armstrong
Well, you know, I tried.
- [24:05]
Joe Getty
Young man apparently looks a little like Barack Obama.
- [24:08]
Jack Armstrong
Have you seen the video?
- [24:10]
Joe Getty
I have not.
- [24:11]
Jack Armstrong
Oh, yeah, you got to watch a video. So Biden is up there looking twice as old as he looked the last time you saw him. So, first of all, I thought he could have, with a couple of things working out differently here and there, be a couple of months into his second term. And I mean, and he is a ghost of a human being. Anyway, he's at Syracuse Law. That's where he graduated top of his class. Remember that story? Top of his class at Syracuse Law. Except that turns out to be a law.
- [24:41]
Joe Getty
A lie.
- [24:42]
Jack Armstrong
But anyway, that's who you invite to be at your graduation for Syracuse Law. I mean, I realize he's quite the alumni as a president, but anywho, he's there and he sees it because they all look alike to him. He sees a black guy. He looks like Barack Obama. He says, come here. And he gestures to him with his hand with like the Khmer gesture. Yeah, like, just keeps doing. I know. Come here. Come here. No, no, no. Come here. And the guy is clearly like, what? I'm not. No, I'm not. You're gonna tell me I look like Barack? Nah. And then finally he gives in and walks up there and is obviously really uncomfortable with this. Doesn't this guy look like Barack Obama? Everybody was like, kinda, a little bit. I mean, he's a black man. That's about it.
- [25:30]
Joe Getty
Wow.
- [25:30]
Jack Armstrong
Yes. K. No, I saw the video. I thought he.
- [25:33]
Katie
He kind of did. He also kind of sounded like him,
- [25:36]
Jack Armstrong
but that's a weird thing to do.
- [25:38]
Joe Getty
Yeah, you're right. All right.
- [25:39]
Jana Kramer
Well.
- [25:40]
Joe Getty
Well, Jack says he didn't look very good, but he sounded terrific.

Joe Biden
Neil and I got married in skandas after my first year in law school with a huge reception thrown by the Hunter family. And countless Bidens made the trip up from Delaware and Scranton to celebrate us on that day, just like they have today.
- [26:01]
Joe Getty
All right, play the first part again.
- [26:05]
Joe Biden
Neil and I got married in scandas after my first year in law school.
- [26:10]
Joe Getty
He got married and scanned ass after his first year. And I don't. You got it. You're supposed to stop scanning ass when you get married, Joe. All right, that's enough of that foolishness. We need to move on.
- [26:20]
Jack Armstrong
I don't know if it is enough of that foolishness. The fact that the Democratic Party was going to run that guy and pretended he was fine. Now he's got lisp. Well, you got something against someone with a lisp?
- [26:36]
Joe Biden
Neil and I got married in skinned ass after my first year in law school.
- [26:40]
Joe Getty
He had a stutter as a child.
- [26:42]
Jack Armstrong
There's a black guy, looks kind of like broccoli. Come here.
- [26:45]
Joe Getty
Come here, black guy. You look like Obama.
- [26:49]
Joe Biden
Obama.
- [26:51]
Joe Getty
All right.
- [26:51]
Jack Armstrong
You also look like Sammy Davis Jr. And

You made it right a long time.
- [27:09]

Can you imagine?

Oh, that would have been. Would have been great for talk radio if he had had a second term, but bad for the world.

- [27:30]
Bill Malugin
Embattled California Congressman Eric Swalwell officially submitting his resignation from Congress as he faces mounting allegations of sexual misconduct.
- [27:39]
Podcast Host
He raped me and he choked me.
- [27:43]
Bill Malugin
Former model Lana Drew becoming Swalwell's fifth accuser, alleging today in a press conference that he drugged and sexually assaulted her in a West Hollywood Hotel in 2018.
- [27:53]
Podcast Host
He said he needed to get paperwork from his hotel room. When I arrived at his hotel room, I was already incapacitated, and I couldn't move my arms or my body.
- [28:11]
Jack Armstrong
Yeah.
- [28:12]
Joe Getty
She made it infinitely clear that she believed he drugged her, made the excuse to come up to the room. I got to grab some paperwork. And he raped her while she was incapacitated. One of several to make a similar claim. That's been established. Let's talk about his good buddy, Arizona. I think he's a. He's a senator. Yeah. Ruben Gallego, Democrat. In the news, he was best buddies with Swalwell, longtime Capitol Hill roommate, longtime wingman. They vacationed together many, many times. And the poor son of a gun was caught completely, completely by surprise.
- [28:47]
Bill Malugin
Arizona Senator Ruben Gallego, one of Swalwell's closest friends, told reporters today that Swalwell had everyone fooled.
- [28:55]
Jack Armstrong
This man led a double life. I was manipulated. I was lied to, and everyone else was, too.
- [29:02]
Joe Getty
One more. Here's a reporter with Gallego.
- [29:04]
Commercial Announcer
On trips, on vacations, officially, unofficially, you've gone out, presumably, with the congressman. You've never even witnessed him, I don't know, engaging in an affair.
- [29:15]
Jack Armstrong
No. What about. No.
- [29:18]
Joe Getty
Some of the photos, the one line. I know you addressed one, but there
- [29:20]
Jack Armstrong
is another one that shows both of you without shirts. I mean, how do you address some
- [29:24]
Joe Getty
of those compromising photos?
- [29:26]
Jack Armstrong
We were on a beach.
- [29:28]
Commercial Announcer
I think you were on.
- [29:29]
Joe Getty
Into the desert and on some camels. There was a beach and a camel, but it's a beach.
- [29:34]
Jack Armstrong
Yes. We're going to get into the beach.
- [29:35]
Joe Getty
Camel.
- [29:36]
Jack Armstrong
All right. We're going to get into. Is the desert a beach? As a discussion. So which, you know, it's a pretty good one. I could spend a whole hour on that. Is the desert a beach? Well, that part was stupid. Both of you without shirts.
- [29:51]
Joe Getty
That was idiotic.
- [29:52]
Jack Armstrong
That's. That's. That is dumb. But the idea that somebody who's roommates with a guy and went out with him all the time, vacation with him, is completely unaware that he, like, gets drunk and hits on chicks is hilarious.
- [30:05]
Joe Getty
Arizona. This is from the Washington Free Beacon. Senator Ruben Gallego is in the news. Here's what you need to know. The aspiring 2028 presidential candidate is either deaf or dumb, blind or a degenerate liar. There's really no other possible explanation for his supporting role in the saga of Eric Swalwell. Gallego was Swalwell's Capitol Hill roommate, longtime wingman bomb on. What did Gallego know and when did he know it? Gallego, the chairman of Swalwell's short live 2020 presidential campaign, the backer of his gubernatorial bid, responded to news of impending and explosive allegations against his best friend with a statement that Swalwell was being victimized because he's just that good. Quote, when you are in first place is when they target you. Eric is a fighter, and he will win the governor's race. That was just one week ago. Now, he says he never knew his roommate was a perv and rapey and the rest of it. He said his friendship with Swalwell clouded his judgment.
- [31:00]
Jack Armstrong
Well, he certainly might not have known that his buddy slips things in women's drinks, but the idea that he had no idea that he goes and gets drunken hits on chicks is.
- [31:12]
Brian
Come on.
- [31:13]
Joe Getty
When Gallego filed for divorce in 2016. And let's break that down a little bit. He filed for divorce from his wife, Kate Gallego, then a Phoenix city councilwoman. She was nine months pregnant and had no idea she was likely to give birth any day.
- [31:30]
Jack Armstrong
Oh.
- [31:31]
Joe Getty
She'd not been served with divorce papers. Her attorney entered an appearance in the case.
- [31:35]
Jack Armstrong
Oh, my God. That's horrible.
- [31:37]
Joe Getty
Yeah. And getting back. So that's the particulars in the divorce. He managed to seal even the existence of the case on the docket, citing the fact that he was a high profile public official. Free Beacon waged a successful battle non Silas records, which revealed that Gallego blindsided his pregnant wife, who's likely to give birth any day. When he served her with divorce papers, then demanded she pay his legal bills. He remarried a lobbyist 14 years his junior, in short order, announcing their engagement with great fanfare, even though they're actually already married.
- [32:07]
Jack Armstrong
Okay, so he was living the Swalwell lifestyle.
- [32:11]
Joe Getty
Yeah, clearly.
- [32:11]
Jack Armstrong
But didn't know Swalwell was Living the
- [32:13]
Joe Getty
Swalwell lifestyle even though they hung out all the time.
- [32:17]
Jack Armstrong
Right. Why do we always have to take everything too far? I wish. I wish they would. I think it'd be better for everybody if we would stick with the crimes. Like, I've heard several time about the list of victims. And then they throw in victims that don't sound much like victims to me. You're not making the case better, you're making it worse. So drugging and raping women, horrible crime. Horrible. Like, I think I'd be pro death penalty for that. That is really, really bad. Kissing someone without asking consent first is ridiculous to call a crime and lump it in with that other one. But I've heard it several times, including yesterday. And then I also would like to point out there, I don't know if we have the clip of this. We don't need it. But there's a one woman, she's an intern or whatever, she was talking about how she and Swalwell exchanged emails and stuff like that. And then at some point he asked her to come to his hotel room and she thought, that's weird, and said no. And I thought, why is there not more emphasis on the idea of don't go to the hotel room?
- [33:34]
Commercial Announcer
Right.
- [33:34]
Jack Armstrong
Don't. That woman made the smart choice of not going to a guy's hotel room. Don't do that. Now, the woman that did do it, he's still a rapist. You're still a victim 100%. But don't go to a guy's hotel room unless you want to have sex with him.
- [33:54]
Joe Getty
Right. Speaking of idiotic narratives, the idea that reminding young women and girls especially that these situations will put you at risk of being victimized is not to blame the woman. It's to point out that was a mistake. That's not blaming the victim for being raped. The rapist is to blame for being whipped in for, you know, victimizing her. But there's absolutely, absolutely value in explaining, especially to young girls and young women. That's a dangerous thing to do.
- [34:26]
Jack Armstrong
Don't do it unless you're really good, long time friends. I mean, really good, longtime friends. I can't imagine a circumstance where I would ever invite a woman to my hotel room unless it was for those reasons. Right.
- [34:44]
Joe Getty
And I want to get to this real quick. How Eric Swalwell rose to the top of Democratic politics as rumors followed him. This is from the Washington Post that mentions that Nancy Pelosi, Ruben Gallego say they knew nothing about the misconduct. Gallego saying the congressman had led a double life. It leads with this When Cheyenne Hunt arrived on Capitol Hills, a staffer in 2020, several other young women working there privately warned her, stay away from Representative Eric Swalwell. He was creepy, the other woman told her, especially over social media. Six years later, you should throw in
- [35:19]
Jack Armstrong
the fact that the guy that invited you up to the hotel room reeks of the kind of guy that you wouldn't want to go to his hotel room. It's not like he's it's surprising that he'd be that kind of guy six years later.
- [35:31]
Joe Getty
Hunt is one of several women who have leveraged their large followings online to go after Swalwell, enlisting women to come forward with their stories, connecting them with reporters at various outlets. Late last week, allegations including sexual assault. We know all those details published by CNN in the San Francisco Chronicle. Swalwell's attorneys, of course, deny each and every allegation of sexual sexual misconduct and assault. The stunning fall has Hunt, Hunt, Ms. Hunt and others asking how someone who was dogged by persistent rumors of inappropriate behavior toward women similar to what she'd heard six years ago, could have risen so high and so fast in a party that says it supports women's rights. We do need to take a look inward as a party because it was an open secret, said Ms. Hunt, who leads a Gen Z Democratic group. Not necessarily that he was assaulting people, but that he was a creep that
- [36:26]
Jack Armstrong
was well known and he was a loud voice during the MeToo movement. He was one of the absolute believe all women guys. Wow.
- [36:34]
Joe Getty
At the very, very least, he was a serial harasser. They're complete hypocrites. Please.

Beef is getting harder for Americans to afford, which explains Pizza Hut's new leftover Easter candy lovers pizza.
- [36:58]
Jack Armstrong
No one out peeps as the Hut Pizza Hut originated in Kansas, so I'm very familiar with Pizza Hut. I was having a conversation with my brothers over the weekend about how crappy Pizza Hut is compared to when we were young, when it was delicious. I don't know that they started using cheaper ingredients, but they had to have. Yeah.
- [37:21]
Joe Getty
Some pizza joints compete on price, some on quality.
- [37:25]
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, yeah, is right.
- [37:27]
Katie
I disagree with your slamming of the Pizza Hut. I have had it a couple of times in the last couple of months and it has been a winner advantage
- [37:35]
Jack Armstrong
of being a pregnant woman.
- [37:36]
Joe Getty
Wow.
- [37:37]
Katie
My husband's not a pregnant woman and
- [37:39]
Joe Getty
he likes it, yeah, I still, boy,
- [37:42]
Jack Armstrong
I still, I still eat it. I have eaten it not that long ago. But it ain't what it used to be.
- [37:48]
Joe Getty
So getting back to I promised I would sprinkle in some more examples of how Washington state is indeed America's looniest state. And this terrific writer is describing several examples. Seattle's new 43 year old mayor, Katie Wilson spent the last several years as general secretary, a title she made up and gave herself of the Transit Riders Union, a group she created in 2011. A self proclaimed socialist, she's relied heavily on subsidies from her parents, from paying her college tuition to paying $10,000 for her childcare during her campaign. There's something too on the nose about a socialist mayor being reliant on funding from her parents into her 40s. She's now the mayor of Seattle.
- [38:31]
Jack Armstrong
And then that's a classic though. That's Karl Marx himself, that's Mamdani, that's this person. It's just, it happens all. It's Che Guevara and Fidel Castro as I've been going through a book on their revolution and rise. They were that kind of people.
- [38:48]
Joe Getty
Yep, yep. And gosh, he goes into the fact that it's 40 years of one party rule in the governor's mansion, makes California look like a purple state. And he addresses how could this be with all those innovative minds in Washington state, more college degrees than any city in the nation. Well, that's a minus, not a plus really. But he says part of the answer is the wealth generated by the high tech sector insulates voters from the consequences of their actions. If public policy won't materially change your situation, why not vote for candidates you believe reflect your own righteousness, even if they are incompetent or dishonest. But then he gets to. And this is the part I really wanted to get to. There was a state task force on artificial intelligence. And at the first meeting of the task force's subcommittee on Climate and Sustainability, a social worker who was a member of the panel for some reason explained at length her understanding of AI. And this is the short version. And I quote, I wish I had audio.
- [39:46]
Jack Armstrong
I don't.
- [39:47]
Joe Getty
So you can have a TV that doesn't need a plug. It either takes the energy out of the environment, like whatever the AI does. Right. We're talking nanotechnology, we're talking all kinds of stuff, all kinds of stuff already out there. So there is already a process out there where you can self power a tv. I don't know if there's any actual those type of TVs on the market. Is that something that I believe is out there? I've never seen it with my own eyes. Absolutely. You know, I'm a person. I live in this world and there's smart people out there.
- [40:16]
Jack Armstrong
What?
- [40:17]
Joe Getty
And it went on in that vein for some time. Apparently the Attorney General's office canceled that Subcommittee. Subcommittee meeting after. I'm sorry Subcommittee after just one meeting.
- [40:27]
Jack Armstrong
What's this person's name?
- [40:30]
Joe Getty
It's just a social worker who's a member of the the AI panel.
- [40:33]
Jack Armstrong
Feel like I need to follow them somehow.
- [40:35]
Joe Getty
Oh, I know.
- [40:36]
Jack Armstrong
That is stunning.
- [40:38]
Joe Getty
He mentions at that time Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkin's comment that the violent takeover of the several city blocked by protesters in 2020 was actually a summer of love and their billion dollars in fraudulent unemployment claims during COVID overseas scammers Chop
- [40:55]
Jack Armstrong
or Chaz or what was the name?
- [40:57]
Joe Getty
It was Chaz at first. Then they renamed it Chop. But few other states can combine Washington's sheer incompetence with the arrogance of believing that we are and looking down on the rest of the country even as we commit blunder after blunder. We are the New York jets, but we think we're the Seattle Seahawks.
- [41:18]
Podcast Host
We.
- [41:19]
Jack Armstrong
You don't need a plug for some TVs because they get their energy through the air like AI does. What are you talking about?
- [41:26]
Joe Getty
Right. We're talking nanotechnology. We're talking all kinds of stuff. All kinds of stuff already out there.
- [41:31]
Jack Armstrong
I've never seen it myself, but I'm sure it exists. These TVs that power themselves by the electricity in the air somehow.
- [41:38]
Joe Getty
So there is already a process out there where you can self power it. Tv? Absolutely. You know, I'm a person, I live in this world and there's smart people out there.
- [41:48]
Jack Armstrong
How'd you get to be in at a level of any influence whatsoever?
- [41:53]
Joe Getty
They live in a dream world supported by the wealth of the tech companies. Just like California. If California didn't have Silicon Valley, oh my God. It would be Venezuela.
