Episode Overview

This episode of Armstrong & Getty centers around the failures and dysfunctions of American institutions—especially Congress and state-level governmental dysfunction, with extended commentary on election management, pandemic response, and cultural shifts. The hosts dig into why they believe Congress has become ineffective, highlight the slow pace of election vote counts in California, and critique heavy-handed pandemic policies and the media’s narratives around them. There's also discussion of sports, tech (especially AI), and plenty of the duo’s signature banter, digs at political figures, and playful asides.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

The Central Theme: Why It's "Time to Close Congress"

• Joe Getty sets the tone early, labeling Congress as "completely useless. It's a clown show. It's a joke. It's ineffective. It doesn't do its job." (03:05)
• Jack and Joe riff on the failure of Congress to function, using the metaphor of a "wrinkled hobo shirt" to mock its lack of respectability (03:31)
• They sarcastically suggest taking a Sharpie to Article 1 of the Constitution.

How Self-Image and Mood Work (Light Banter)

• Extended lighthearted debate about the difference between an "outfit" and a "fit"; how self-confidence (swagger) impacts mood, drawing analogies to sports performance (04:16–06:14).
• Joe: "We all spend way too much energy appraising ourselves when the rest of the world isn't really paying that much attention." (04:43)

Sports Highlights

• Brief notes on Jalen Brunson's playoff performance and Shohei Ohtani's baseball statistics as record-setting, but with the punchline that such extraordinary feats are, in context, ultimately not that meaningful to everyday life (05:10–06:28).
• Amusing, albeit borderline, jokes about Japanese stereotypes and Godzilla when discussing Ohtani's dominance (06:40–07:15).

NPR, Pandemic Authority, and the Push for Legislative Oversight

• Jack rants about an NPR report implying it’s a disaster that states are removing pandemic power from unelected health officials in favor of legislatures (08:47–10:49).
• "Why would I want one person on a whim...to decide the rules as opposed to the legislature, who would be responsible to the people..." — Jack Armstrong (10:00)
• Joe: "For all of their constant howling about democracy, the left is extremely uncomfortable with democracy. They really want dictatorship." (10:28)
• Critiques of Dr. Fauci and the mainstream media, with Joe and Jack expressing clear frustration with pandemic overreach and restrictions.
• Both hosts call for clear legal definitions of what constitutes a public emergency and transparent oversight.

Vote-Counting Dysfunction in California

• Detailed discussion of California's reputation for slow, drawn-out vote counts, the confusion and suspicion it generates, and how it’s unique among U.S. states (16:39, 19:02–29:50).
• Joe: "California's vote-counting system essentially puts lipstick on...weird hotel stays that can't be explained, but then denies there's an affair going on. It sets it all up to look like electoral fraud." (18:31)
• Criticism of mail-in ballot systems, highlighting the lack of deadlines, overwhelming logistics, and susceptibility to fraud.
• Jack defends the idea that quick counts are more trustworthy: "Everybody does it fast, and the likelihood that you believe a fast result just is obviously higher..." (26:57)

Media Critique: Spin and Bias

• Breakdown of how different news outlets (NBC, Fox News, Washington Post, etc.) frame the same political stories very differently, sometimes misleadingly omitting key facts (16:57–17:43).
• Lampooning headlines that omit the symbolic nature of congressional votes or misrepresent complex international situations.

Political Culture and California's Leadership

• Commentary on LA mayoral politics, referencing Bill Maher and Jimmy Kimmel, with the hosts lamenting that "pointing out the obvious" about homelessness and crime gets dismissed as being a "Karen" (24:08–24:44).
• Jack: "Are you being a Karen when you point out that poor woman who was chased into a furniture store and stabbed to death by a crazed junkie?" (24:35)

Election Policy and Voter ID

• Support for measures aimed at speeding up counts and requiring voter ID.
• Jack: "...anything that makes it faster and leans towards showing your ID is a good idea. And everybody should be on board with that, 100%." (29:50)

US Foreign Policy and Middle East Ceasefires

• Discussion of the supposed ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon, explaining the complexity of Lebanese-Hezbollah relations and debunking overly simplistic media or political statements (30:11–32:22).
• Joe: "Israel has no desire for conquest. They just don't want to be attacked anymore." (31:30)
• Further debate about Trump's position on military action regarding Iran—with frustration over both media simplifications and what they see as Trump's loss of resolve (34:02–35:03).
• Joe: "I think Trump has lost his nerve and his willingness to rattle the world economy to push as hard as it's going to take..." (34:54)

Tech & AI: Sam Altman’s Optimism Met with Skepticism

• Sam Altman's comments that AI won’t be "as disruptive to jobs as some fear" are met with utter disbelief. Jack: "I would trust his honesty on this topic about as little as anybody I could possibly imagine." (16:16)

Cultural Change and Ideological Shifts (Mailbag)

• Listeners weigh in on leftist strategies ("cultural revolution, not armed rebellion") and the conservative long-game in chipping away at Roe v. Wade (41:20–43:53).
• "It’s a strategy of patience and persistence...By methodically placing ideological sympathizers into education, media, government, and corporate power structures, the American worldview has been shifted..." — Email from listener Jeff, read by Joe (41:36)

Episode Flow & Tone

The tone is irreverent but thoughtful, swinging between pointed political critique (of both the left and right), cultural observations, mockery of media coverage, and lighthearted personal asides (sports, self-esteem, celebrity, tech). The style is conversational, at times digressive, but always circling back to their core theme: the dysfunction of America’s governing institutions and the media that covers them.

---

This rich and lively episode is a must-listen (or read) for those interested in media criticism, election reform, the limits of government power, and the enduring wit and skepticism of Armstrong & Getty.

[Joe Getty]

Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty. Armstrong and Getty.

[Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship Announcer]

And now, here's Armstrong and Getty.

[Joe Getty]

Live from Studio C. Senor, My shirt's wrinkled.

[Jack Armstrong]

I feel like a hobo. I hate when that happens somehow.

[Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship Announcer]

Oh no.

[Jack Armstrong]

When I put it in the closet, you got bent and it was pressed between shirts and now I look like a hobo.

[Joe Getty]

You hate to Start the day feeling like a hobo.

[Jack Armstrong]

You know you do. It's a dimly lit room deep within the bowels of the Armstrong and Getty Communications compound. And today we're toiling under the title of the show.

[Joe Getty]

Only one title today. This is a dictatorship. This is a one party state. Your title is time to close Congress. Or reboot it or shut it down, or just to just, you know, take a big sharpie and cross out Article 1 in the Constitution. It's completely useless. It's. It's a clown show. It's a joke. It's ineffective. It doesn't do its job.

[Jack Armstrong]

I'm sure you're going to back up that title later in the program.

[Joe Getty]

It's like a wrinkled hobo shirt of an institution. Congress.

[Jack Armstrong]

Terrible. Yeah, she hadn't mentioned that.

[Joe Getty]

How bad is it?

[Jack Armstrong]

It's. It's pretty bad. You can't see where you're standing below my. The desk.

[Joe Getty]

But I'm not gonna.

[Jack Armstrong]

The bottom part of my shirt is. Yeah, you'd have to stare at my crotch. But the bottom part of my shirt is very wrinkled. It is awful. Amazing, though, how, like, I noticed sometimes I can put on certain. I don't want to say the word outfit, but certain group of clothes.

[Joe Getty]

Why don't you want to say outfit?

[Jack Armstrong]

I don't know.

[Joe Getty]

Because of the Jason Isabel song?

[Jack Armstrong]

Because of the Drive By Truckers song. Yes.

[Joe Getty]

Oh, yeah. I guess it was Drive By Truckers. Yeah.

[Jack Armstrong]

Don't call what you're wearing an outfit. It's not manly.

[Joe Getty]

You're fit.

[Jack Armstrong]

As my son says, like you're fit. Sometimes you can have a fit on and you're like, man, I really look good today. Which at least for me, helps my entire mood. But then put exact same thing on two weeks later and like, it lost its zip somehow. I don't know what's going on.

[Joe Getty]

And so it's.

[Jack Armstrong]

So just pointing out. It's all in your mind, really. A lot of it. Not all of it, but some of it is just in your mind certainly how you're looking, how you're feeling, you know, you got your swagger or not.

[Joe Getty]

Well, and we all spend way too much energy appraising ourselves when the rest of the world isn't really paying that much attention.

[Jack Armstrong]

Having your swagger, though, helps with the day. That is true. Having your. I don't know, what's the French term you. You like throwing? French or Latin?

[Joe Getty]

Yeah, I got to plume.

[Jack Armstrong]

I got zero. I got zero. Numb to plume today.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah, that's too bad. I tell you had their swagger. Was the Knickerbockers.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah.

[Joe Getty]

Game one of the NBA Finals, man.

[Jack Armstrong]

I'd say.

[Joe Getty]

Not that I watched, but it sounded exciting.

[Jack Armstrong]

That Jalen Brunson dude is. He is something. He's. He's. He performs better in playoffs, and he does regular season more than any other player than NBA history statistically. Like, he's bored during the regular season, and then he gets into the games. That, and he's a different guy more than anybody ever has been.

[Joe Getty]

It's weird, something you see sometimes in sports Guy swagger. Got to have a lot at stake to focus or to be properly motivated.

[Jack Armstrong]

One more sports sports note, which I know is annoying to people who don't like sports. Shohei Otani, the greatest baseball player in the world, maybe of all time, has the lowest ERA at this point in the season. Pretty early in the season, but he's however many innings in. Has the lowest ERA since 1913. I know it as a pitcher, and he's hitting over.300, which will put you in the hall of Fame on its own.

[Joe Getty]

No, he's. He's. He's the greatest.

[Jack Armstrong]

That is ridiculous. That is absolutely ridiculous. It's kind of funny, though, when you get into sports stats, when you go way, way, way back, because the sport is so different, you barely can call it the same thing. I mean, you know, the equipment and just all kinds of different things.

[Joe Getty]

But this is of no significance to anyone or anything. But how much of an outlier is he physically in Japan? Because Japanese men are famously smaller, generally speaking, say, Americans.

[Jack Armstrong]

But he's got to be, like, the equivalent of 8 foot tall, doesn't he?

[Joe Getty]

Yeah, he's an enormous man. So, yeah, he's got to. They gotta fear him like Godzilla. I mean, please have mercy on the subway trains. Shohei. Oh, great. Shohei. Right to traffic in the worst cliched Japanese stereotype.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, exactly. Man, when he comes back to Tokyo, he's probably walking through the streets and they got airplanes flying around and trying to stop him. Makes those noises.

[Joe Getty]

I've never heard him make that noise. But he might in his private time with his bookie translator guy. They've severed ties.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yes, exactly.

[Joe Getty]

So this is interesting. I got a question. Speaking of the playoff clutch thing, I've either died emotionally or I've reached a new plateau of Zen. I used two computers and an iPad for the show. I got tabs, I got screens, I got sheets, I got updates. Both of my computers crashed today. I mean, like, crashed. I lost dozens of carefully arranged tabs of Articles I wanted to talk about arranged by subject and like in order of most like newsworthy to most evergreen and everything genius system. If I just crashed, lost it all and yes, I know how to get it back but it keeps coming back in the wrong way and I don't care.

[Jack Armstrong]

It's fine.

[Joe Getty]

I thought now we'll work our way around it. In the past I would have been panicked, sickened.

[Jack Armstrong]

Do you have any idea why I

[Joe Getty]

think I've died emotionally?

[Jack Armstrong]

I have a friend who used to say, you know how I handle it. I'm dead inside.

[Joe Getty]

I wonder. I wonder. But we will forge ahead nonetheless.

[Jack Armstrong]

If you don't care anymore. Is that it?

[Joe Getty]

I happen to be talking to my wife. I said it's not like it was a patient on the table. It's okay. Low T. Well, that. No, no T. I have no measurable T. I'm like a female veal calf as a man. It's terrible.

[Jack Armstrong]

I got a comment on an NPR story that I heard on the way to work today that it's going the right direction. Their. Their coverage of it, their version of it, the lefty version of it really bothers me.

[Joe Getty]

It's.

[Jack Armstrong]

There are quite a few states in the country. They said most mostly red states. I think it's interesting that it's not all red states, but I'll have to look into it before we discuss it all around the topic of states that have decided. Yeah, we didn't really know the county or city health commissioner had the power to do all these things in a pandemic. So we're changing the rules here so that of the legislature or some bigger body can decide whether or not schools are going to be closed for two years or the parks are closed down or you can no longer go to the beach or whatever. As opposed to one person that somehow got elected health commissioner who you don't have any idea who it is or what their deal is. Right.

[Joe Getty]

Their qualifications are practically nil for county health commissioner.

[Jack Armstrong]

NPR presented that as a horror with a bunch of quotes from Dr. Fauci, I guess, who's.

[Joe Getty]

Oh.

[Jack Armstrong]

Part of the pushback on this across the country.

[Joe Getty]

Oh my God.

[Jack Armstrong]

And I'll talk about that more later. Just. Oh, I couldn't. It brought back all the horrors of the whole thing. And, and the idea that some people like one individual who the hell knows what their qualifications are in your county that can say you're right, parks are closed down. Put yellow tape around the playground equipment so the kids can't play. Why doesn't matter. I make those decisions as opposed to the legislature, who would be responsible to

[Joe Getty]

the people making that decision. Right. For all of their constant howling about democracy, the left is extremely uncomfortable with democracy. They really want dictatorship.

[Jack Armstrong]

God, Fauci saying something like, we want to strip the power of someone whose sworn duty is to protect your health and put it in the hands of a committee. That's outrageous.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah. If they're going to revoke our rights 100%.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah.

[Joe Getty]

Dr. Gain of function.

[Jack Armstrong]

I want the.

[Joe Getty]

Dr. Wuhan.

[Jack Armstrong]

I want the legislature who legislates. In other words, makes laws to decide the rules as opposed to some person on a whim. One person.

[Joe Getty]

Right. It'll never happen in corruptifornia. But I'd also like to see every statehouse around the nation rule firmly on what constitutes an emergency.

[Jack Armstrong]

No kidding.

[Joe Getty]

How one is declared and when one ends quite specifically to reign in the future. Lunatics like Gavin Newsom.

[Jack Armstrong]

And then they ended the story. It's just so funny because NPR constantly runs promos about how the place you go to get the real story with no spin and all the facts, and it's just so hilarious. Anyway, they ended the story. With hantaviruses cases continuing to show up in the Ebola virus not under control, this could become an issue sooner than many of us realize.

[Joe Getty]

Back to you, Jim. Oh, I pray it does. And I pray all those red states and their legislatures take a careful look at the policy and scient actual scientific fact, not the craze that took place during COVID but what all of the responsible health organizations had declared years before would be the response to pandemics. And follow those carefully, and then let's draw a contrast. If it happens again, God forbid, between your economy, our economy, our schools, your schools, our health outcomes, your health outcomes. That seems to be the only way to do it.

[Jack Armstrong]

The time is to strike his now, though, before people forget about it, because the next pandemic could be another century away.

[Joe Getty]

But let's just apparently, and this is good news, I am not emotionally dead because I hear the name Anthony Wuhan Fauci and I get. My blood starts to boil.

[Jack Armstrong]

Joe, I represent science. Here's our headline for the day. Joe's not dead inside. That's. That's our breaking news.

[Joe Getty]

I'm not doing well, but not dead yet.

[Jack Armstrong]

I'm Jack Armstrong. He's Joe Getty on this. It is Thursday, June 4, the year 2026, where Armstrong and getting. We approve of this program.

[Joe Getty]

Okay, let's begin officially, then, according to FCC rules or eggs. Here we go.

[Jack Armstrong]

At mark on the drive, spins underneath, puts it up, puts it in. Jalen Brunson does it again. It's a six point lead with seconds left. They were down by 14 late in the third quarter.

[Joe Getty]

Never say die, that's what I say.

[Jack Armstrong]

Timothy Chalamet was digging it. He was in the second row. He was in the second row behind what's his name, the comedian that got all the money from the car wreck.

[Joe Getty]

Tracy Morgan.

[Jack Armstrong]

Tracy Morgan was in the front row. Chalamet was in the second row. So, hey, shallow, you need a little more money or something?

[Joe Getty]

Oh, that's twice as many rows as the first row.

[Jack Armstrong]

Sam Altman, one of the biggest AI guys in the world says, ah, this whole thing about people losing their jobs is overblown. I think it's going to be just fine. And I would trust his honesty on this topic. About as little as anybody I could possibly imagine. But more on that later.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah, no kidding. Who asked you? I just came across a fascinating bit of American history. The farm boy, the Vermont farm boy who in the early 1800s invented something that made skyscrapers possible. What? The plucky young American. Great story. We'll share that with you coming up. But first let's figure out who's reporting what. It's the lead story with Heather Myers.

[Heather Myers]

Heather, Joe, Jack, good morning. Let's find out how the networks are covering the news this morning From NBC News. House votes to rebuke Trump over war with Iran.

[Jack Armstrong]

Nobody, I have to jump in just because nobody is pointing out because they want the excitement that goes with it. It's a symbolic vote. It holds no weight. It has no power.

[Joe Getty]

It doesn't help politically, but no, it does not signal the end of anything.

[Heather Myers]

Well, Fox News covered it this way. Trump suffers rare House defeat as bipartisan vote moves to withdraw troops from Iran conflic. And then the Washington Post said it like this. The four Republicans who broke with Trump on Iran and now face his wrath.

[Jack Armstrong]

No, it's interesting that in a Republican controlled House, you know, that it, that it passed. But to leave out the fact that it's symbolic and does not have the ability to end the war is beyond disingenuous. I mean, you're misleading on purpose.

[Heather Myers]

It's a tough story. We're covering out of Northern California this morning. KCRA reporting one dead and three injured in shooting after graduation ceremony at Fairfield High School.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, it's getting national attention. It's just down the road from us, from Forbes.

[Heather Myers]

Trump baselessly accuses Democrats of stealing California primaries.

[Jack Armstrong]

Well, if you allow counting to go on for days and weeks, it, it certainly helps the argument from people for people who want to claim there Are shenanigans going on?

[Joe Getty]

Yeah. California's vote counting system essentially puts lipstick on color, blond hair across shoulder of shirt, and weird hotel stays that can't be explained, but then denies there's an affair going on. It sets it all up to look like electoral fraud. So if people say, wow, that looks kind of fraudulent, you can't act like that's unreasonable.

[Heather Myers]

Well, this headline from the LA Times well, backs that up. Does Nithya Raman still have a chance? California's uncounted votes could help Democrats.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, speaking of disingenuous, a lot of the coverage around this just giving people totals of who's ahead and whatever. With 50 some percent of the vote counted, there's no point. So wait until they're got.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah.

[Jack Armstrong]

Every number you hear about results in California could be flipped completely upside down by the time they're done counting.

[Heather Myers]

From the Sacramento Bee. Katie Porter's failed bid for governor is a loss for all Californians.

[Jack Armstrong]

What? Who said that?

[Joe Getty]

What?

[Heather Myers]

Sacramento B. Their opinion page this morning.

[Jack Armstrong]

Wow.

[Joe Getty]

It used to be a newspaper. That's hilarious.

[Heather Myers]

From ABC7, Newport Beach CEO accused of illegally selling US tech to Iranian government.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, that's a big story we got into later. Why? Why was this person so rich hanging out in California for so long and selling secrets to the Iranians? What was going on there?

[Heather Myers]

Yeah, they nabbed him at his throat. $45 million mansion.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah.

[Heather Myers]

From CNN. SpaceX sets the stage for a record 75 billion dollar IPO.

[Jack Armstrong]

We got to talk to him, somebody smart about all these IPOs that are coming out the big tech things. What it means, should you be trying to get involved. Blah, blah, blah.

[Heather Myers]

From people.com Service dogs extreme in flight action Accident sickens passengers.

[Jack Armstrong]

What happened?

[Heather Myers]

Oh, oh, the dog got the squirts.

[Joe Getty]

Oh, that's. Well, that's. Well, okay. That's an unfortunate delicate Heather. But at least nobody's left wondering what happened. So. Clarity.

[Jack Armstrong]

Points for clarity.

[Heather Myers]

Well, I just wanted to sum it up so there was no guessing.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, exactly. That settled the issue.

[Heather Myers]

From the Associated Press this morning. Woman sues Outback Steakhouse for one and a half million after allegedly slipping on mashed potatoes.

[Jack Armstrong]

Oh, God.

[Heather Myers]

All right, from the AP again, the winner pays 9 million in charity auction for a private lunch with Warren Buffett and Stephen Curry.

[Jack Armstrong]

Wow.

[Joe Getty]

I would like to lunch with the greatest investor of all time.

[Jack Armstrong]

And the greatest jump shooter of all time. Yeah.

[Heather Myers]

Together.

[Joe Getty]

The same table. Exactly. They must be together.

[Heather Myers]

Warren, finally.

[Joe Getty]

Why so many three pointers in the NBA? Stefan, is there growth in the housing industry. Sorry.

[Heather Myers]

15 seconds go from the Babylon Bee. California announces they have finished counting the votes. Ronald Reagan has won the 1966 governor's race.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, that's an embarrassment. I got a scenario around that to present. Oh, and have you heard the Steph Curry business story?

[Heather Myers]

Armstrong and Getty.

[Parent 1]

So no dinosaurs and dinosaurs.

[Jack Armstrong]

Everything kids love, download it for free. 60% of the vote has been counted. If that holds, it means that in November, Los Angelenos are gonna have to choose between a woman named Karen and a man who is one. This is insane. Oh, wow. We should be very embarrassed. Spencer Pratt should not be a top two finalist for maybe here. He should be DJing the worst new Year's Eve party in Reno right now. Now, he's unlikely to win, and in fact, he's already filming a reality show about his run for mayor. So he definitely has his priorities in order. That is so interesting because, like, I know Bill Maher and Jimmy Kimmel are friends. I've seen Jimmy Kimmel on his show a couple different times, hanging out and talking and stuff like that.

[Joe Getty]

And likewise, the very practical and very realistic Adam Carolla.

[Jack Armstrong]

But Bill Maher, you know, as a lifelong lefty who lives in Los Angeles, saying, look, this is ridiculous. We got street people everywhere. You can't get anything Done. Jimmy Kimmel goes with a Spencer Pratt's a Karen for complaining about drug addicts. Intense everywhere. Wow, that's really interesting.

[Joe Getty]

Are you being a Karen when you pointed out that poor woman who was chased into a furniture store and stabbed to death by a crazed junkie? I mean, was that. Is that being a Karen to point out the horror of that?

[Jack Armstrong]

Anyway, I got another thing on the California elections, but I wanted to follow up on a couple of things that Heather had for us. Headlines that one about somebody paying a bunch of money to have lunch with Warren Buffett and Steph Curry. That sounds. I would love to have lunch with either one of those guys alone, but I feel like if I was there with them together and you have that whole thing going where you're trying to include everybody, like at a party or something like that, it'd be really difficult to do. I mean, I have specific questions for Warren. I have specific questions for Steph Curry, but neither one of them. I don't know how. Steph Curry.

[Joe Getty]

I would like to lunch with Getty Lee and Sam Altman. I mean, come on, get. How do you get that bass sound, Sam? Will this restructure the economy, Getty? How do you play the keyboards, Sam? What? That's an odd combo.

[Jack Armstrong]

Anyway, Steph Curry's closer to Warren Buffett than the other way around. Steph Curry just signed a four. A new. He's going with a new shoe. His Under Armour shoe thing ended. Biggest sports contract at that time that had ever been signed his new one with some Chinese shoe I've never even heard of.

[Joe Getty]

Oh, boy.

[Jack Armstrong]

They're all kind of Chinese shoes because, I mean, Nike's an American company, but everything's made in China. Anyway, leaning $400 million shoe deal. Steph Curry signed and his career is practically over $400 million. So, yeah, he could talk business with both of those guys.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Jack Armstrong]

Wow.

[Joe Getty]

I'm super uncomfortable with that, though. It's a Chinese owned company. That's the difference. Under the influence of the communist Chinese, by definition.

[Jack Armstrong]

By definition. On the election thing. Oh, well, we. So we got this text. People that are complaining about how slow California is in counting the ballots and lots of different people pointing out

[Joe Getty]

how

[Jack Armstrong]

long it takes in different states, cities, or countries around the world. California is the worst of any, like, developed democracy on planet Earth in terms of getting results. And the problem is. Well, we got this text. If they did it super quick, you guys would say, that's too fast. It had to be rigged. No, I wouldn't.

[Joe Getty]

Nobody in history has Ever said that

[Jack Armstrong]

everybody does it fast and the likelihood that you believe a fast result just is obviously higher than a slow, drawn out result. Now I don't like, I was thinking about my big local measure where I live and you don't need to know the details, but it's a housing development. So I was thinking like how much money is involved here in one small town? And the vote is really close. They're like 500 votes apart and they're 40% of the way counting. Two days later you've got how many, how many millions of dollars would you have involved in a 1500 home development of hundreds of acres? It would, it would have to be hundreds of millions of dollars, wouldn't it? That's an awful lot of money because there's a park and there's roads and there's all kinds of stuff that has to happen. That's a lot of money hinging on a very tiny election. Now I don't have any reason to think that it's gonna be rigged in any way, but oh my God, there'd be a lot of people that would love to rig it if they could. And you only gotta change a couple hundred votes, right? So yeah, you gotta get those results out fast. You're just asking for people to speculate when it takes you this long to count votes.

[Joe Getty]

The problem is it's got to take this long because the bizarro practically unprecedented in electoral history system California has, you can mail in a ballot anytime before the election. You can mail it in day of it can get there a week later, it still has to be counted. There's nothing like a deadline, there's no structure to it. It's the most unstructured voting I've ever seen in terms of time. And then the blanketing of the state with mail in ballots, a state of 40 million people, I mean, that's just the reason nobody else does it like that, is because it's so wildly unmanageable both logistically and security of the vote wise. But I, you know, I don't know, I just.

[Jack Armstrong]

So it was all driven by the goal, I suppose, to get as many people to vote as possible, make it the easiest vote as possible.

[Joe Getty]

Every half wit bum junkie moron in every corner of California, let's get a ballot from them. They have no ability to manage their lives, to get to the polls, to, to figure out when voting day is.

[Jack Armstrong]

What's your address?

[Joe Getty]

Collect all those votes?

[Jack Armstrong]

I don't know. Know.

[Joe Getty]

Yes.

[Jack Armstrong]

Can you tell me what your previous address was? I Don't know.

[Joe Getty]

Well, the. The young woman you were talking about, you, we, Jack, actually witnessed in line, who didn't know her present nor former address, but was still voting. She's in, like, the 80th percentile. She got herself to the poll. She knew where to go, or at least knew where a polling place was. That's what she's above average. It's all designed to allow A, collecting votes from morons and B, fraud.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, the whole, A lot of the Save act stuff that Trump's trying to get through, still claiming that the 2020 election was stolen from him is nonsensical or counterproductive. But anything that makes it faster and leans towards showing your ID is a good idea. And everybody should be on board with that, 100%.

[Joe Getty]

Practically everybody is on board with it, as we've discussed many times, including the vast majority of Democrats. A couple other headlines just to touch on. Israel and Lebanon agreed to implementation of a ceasefire. It's so complicated. And Trump oversimplified it the other day.

[Jack Armstrong]

What does that mean? So your headline right there, you talked about this yesterday. Israel's not at war with Lebanon. So calling a ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon and them signing an agreement, that's not the problem.

[Joe Getty]

Here's a little tip for you from your old Uncle Joe. Say you're forming up a country and one of your political parties decides. You know, we're hardcore Islamists and we don't want to wait around for our country to make decisions about who needs to be killed or fought. We're going to arm our giant political party and kind of do what we want most of the time. Don't do that. You don't want that in your country. So Lebanon's in a situation where they do join with Hezbollah at times if they think Israel's gotten too belligerent or they're in an armed conflict and Hezbollah says, yeah, we'll help you out if you'. They'll say, all right, yeah, throw some rockets at Israel. But a significant amount of the time, the legitimate government of Lebanon, Lebanese people are thinking, can we get these lunatics out of here? Or at least get them to disarm, because then we can have peace with Israel. Israel has no desire for conquest. They just don't want to be attacked anymore. So what's happened now? And as you're kind of indirectly pointing out, it doesn't mean peace has come. Lebanon has just said to Israel, look, we're not fighting each other, right? So do us a favor and be Israel. Be a little restrained. When you're attacking Hezbollah because don't draw us into it because we don't want any part of it. And Israel said, okay, let's be cool and concentrate on Hezbollah. So that's my nickel version of what's happening right now. But Trump said Israel's got to stop fighting Lebanon. And that's, that's again oversimplified. But it's a good sign. I think at least maybe if fighting resumes, Israel can point out to Trump and others, look, we're not fighting Lebanon. We have an agreement with Lebanon. Lebanon, are we fighting you? No, you're not. And it's just the Islamist Iranian proxies again.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, there's some interesting Wall Street Journal reporting on Trump's attitude about the war. But we can tell you about it right after we tell you about rough greens, which is something you need to get for your dog. You put it on your dog's current food. You don't have to change your dog's because your dog doesn't like your dog's stomach does not like it when you change food has been my experience. But you put rough greens on top of the food and you got all this live probiotics, enzymes, omega oils, 20 vitamins and minerals. That's a good idea.

[Joe Getty]

It's all about giving your dog a longer, healthier life. It's America's number one dog supplement. All natural, made in the usa. There are thousands of dogs feeling younger, more energetic and healthier than ever before. More good days and more time together.

[Jack Armstrong]

According to the Wall Street Journal's reporting around the war with Iran, President Trump has told aides privately that he would would consider surprised. It's just consider ending the ceasefire if Tehran kills American troops, US Officials said, insisting that the weeks long pause in airstrikes remains intact despite a steady stream of violent skirmishes. So he's going to hold on to it. The little tit for tat. They call it tit for tat when you're sending ballistic missiles at each other. That's some pretty heavy duty tit for tat. But if you kill A bunch of American troops. Trump's going to end the ceasefire and attack. He'd consider it.

[Joe Getty]

They said here. Yeah, beware. Because the headline in the Wall Street Journal's exclusive is Trump tells aides he won't resume all out war unless US Troops are killed. And then you read the entire body of the article and you realize, no, that's not what he said. He said he would seriously consider ending the ceasefire if Iran killed American troops. Not that that was the, the only trigger or that that was the only scenario. It's, it's a terrible misleading.

[Jack Armstrong]

I see the difference you're pointing out, but I would rather he used the words hell, yeah, F. Yeah, if they kill US Troops, we're going back to war as opposed to, I'll consider, I'd like stronger language.

[Joe Getty]

Right. And, or how about, yeah, we're going to go back to serious war unless they come to the table in a serious way and agree to a deal.

[Jack Armstrong]

Right.

[Joe Getty]

I think think Trump has lost his nerve and his willingness to rattle the world economy to push as hard as it it's going to take to get Iran to actually agree.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah. I have not been on board with the taco thing through any of this stuff, tariffs or any of this stuff. He has lost his nerve on this one. He chickened out and I'm not exactly sure why the mark. I mean, there's, he doesn't care about people's opinions. He does care about the market. But yeah, he's, he's, he clearly is chickened out. We were talking to Nora Rothman yesterday. He is a journalist with the National Review and he's got a book called Blood and Progress about left wing violence. Anyway, we did a podcast with him yesterday that you can find where you find podcasts. But anyway, we, we, we said what Joe said a couple of weeks ago to him because I wondered what his reaction was. Iran getting a nuclear weapon would be one of the biggest developments in world history. And he said, absolutely, absolutely, he agrees. I don't know how it would not. I don't know how you'd make the argument that wouldn't be. With that on the table and a negative development, not like electricity is one of the biggest developments in world history too, but didn't lead to World War 3. How is that the case? Iran getting a nuclear weapon to be one of the worst things that's ever happened on planet Earth. And because gas is going to be high this summer, we're just going to not bother. Not bother.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah. Now I think it's awful. It's terrible mismanagement I want to pay off. Next hour, the young Vermont farm boy who made skyscrapers possible. Might be a slight overstatement, but it's a cool story. It's a Wright Brothers esque tale. A couple of bicycle repairmen that'll never happen. Plus, we've got Mailbag coming up.

[Jack Armstrong]

And Sam Altman says you're not going to lose your job to AI. And I would certainly believe him. Why would he lie to you? Among other things on the way.

[Joe Getty]

Stay here, Armstrong and Getty.

It's really been working for me. It's quite amazing. Maybe it could help out, you know, somebody who's listening because it's. It's extraordinary.

[Joe Getty]

Jowl lift. Is that what you mean?

[Jack Armstrong]

Also have this headline we'll get to. It's here. The new world screw worm has shown up in the United States. First example in Texas. And look for it near you. Flesh eating bacteria loving. Gonna get into your eyeballs.

[Joe Getty]

Screw it may. Let's not frighten people people. So it eats your flesh and kills you.

[Jack Armstrong]

You got about a 5050 chance.

[Joe Getty]

Here's your freedom loving quote of the day. I decided in the wake of our discussion of Trump's negotiating with Iran, apparently whoever's in charge to do some quotes about negotiation. Let's go with this one. Where'd that go? Oh, there it is. John F. Kennedy from 1961. We cannot negotiate with people who say what's mine is mine and what's yours is negotiable.

[Jack Armstrong]

That's a good line.

[Joe Getty]

Or I actually like this one. It's, you know, laying out the very basics. It's from John Maynard Keynes. Who? The father of Keynesian economics who ruined the world. But when the final result is expected to be a compromise, it is often prudent to start from an extreme position.

[Jack Armstrong]

Ah, that's a good one.

[Joe Getty]

Peg the negotiations way over there. Oh my God, you're dragging me off away over there. What kind of monster are you?

[Jack Armstrong]

Okay, I'll come a little bit.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah. Mailbag, drop us a Note [e-mail] oh wow. Some folks have already listened to the long form interview of Nora Noah Rothman on One More Thing. Armstrong getting One More Thing. If you subscribe to Armstrong and Getty on Demand, it'll automatically download. Interesting chat, guys. Brilliant. Anyway, drop us a note mailbag at Armstrong&getty.com Roy the Marine writes. Heard your commentary about people. People who are bubbled don't know they're bubble. One munition. Slow down, Joe. One musician friend of mine who goes all the way back to school days is brilliant. A grad of a major university astounded me by being unaware of the enslavement, in some cases genocide of the Uyghurs. Turns out he had a National Geographic magazine on his coffee table with an in depth article about it. He just hadn't gotten around to it. He was clearly disturbed. He shook his head after reading quite a bit of it and said I had no idea this was happening. He was in disbelief when I commented that 89, 80 to 90% of homeless are drug addicts, alcoholics are both, which is why they can't keep a job or a domicile. He also believes that ms, now especially Rachel Maddow, are honest journalists. So.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, well, it's as been pointed out by us and many other people, it's a lot harder to be bubbled if you lean to the right because you're confronted with with a different version of it every time you flip on the television or go to a movie or your kids coming home from school or

[Joe Getty]

whatever, or you yourself Go to school as a younger person, you're subjected, subjected. You're exposed to those arguments and have to learn to deal with them and confront why you think they're either right or wrong your whole life. Liberals need not do that. So they're bubbled thought. This was a great, great summary from Jeff on the true Marxist strategy. It's a strategy of patience and persistence. The Marxist strategy to infiltrate the US was a long term cultural revolution, not an armed rebellion. By methodically placing ideological sympathizers into education, media, government and corporate power structures, the American worldview has been shifted dramatically over the past century. Today, many Americans are unaware that what they see as normal progress was in fact carefully orchestrated over decades following a playbook written by Gramsc, refined by Marcuse, and executed by a legion of activists posing as educators, journalists and public servants. That's exactly right. If there's a lesson to be learned, it's this cultural warfare is real and fought not with guns, but with ideas, textbooks and television screens.

[Jack Armstrong]

You know, it kind of reminds me of the way conservatives, pro life conservatives got Roe versus Wade finally overturned. That was a like half century project from the federal society to try to, you know, get judges in places at low, lower levels. Let it play out over a very long period of time to try to reverse that. You have to play a long game with some of these big ideas and they have on the other side with Marxism in our schools and media for longer than that.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah, yeah. And then finally, Kevin from beautiful Placerville, California points out that Nate Silver talking about California's electoral system and how hopeless it is, Nate called it learned helplessness. And he says, I take issue with the characterization because it completely mixed diagnoses the issue. This is exactly how they want the system to function. They want a gigantic untrackable flood of votes that they can then harvest and control. It's not a mistake, it's. And it's intentional.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah. And then it's got the help of. It makes it seem like you're trying to count every vote out there so you can get a lot of people on board who lean that direction.

[Heather Myers]
