Democrats Engage in Anti-Gun Political Theater in Wake of Texas School Shooting

Why is New York City set up Fox and friends saw America's receptive voice Brian Kilby was reading your body. The brain Kilby Joe the Tuesday edition of the show. I think it will be as good if not better than Monday's Lieut. Col. Allen West is coming up.

Surely you know him was 30 years in the business of serving the military or my body yeah guys of the elevator was just a little bit stuck there so just trying to get appears quick as I could never happen far as like us to like 70 people in there when I finally got in the elevator. It was between there was like five stops so can help us know you are being a VIP elevator for my now or I could play tactically and got out of the city get in the first elevator in the second one, but we're back so is a lot going on everybody focus on what's going on you Valley. Of course this also things going on colder war in Ukraine. This help bad shooting was this about the shooting was the president of Ukraine offer condolences to us.

That's how bad when you that's when you shoot 80 and 10-year-olds.

That's how horrific this is so. Congressman Mike Walt when we just get right to them is right there, he Carson welcome back Brian, first off I'm on what's happening right now and you Valley.

We have 19 to 2019 children dead. 21. Overall, with the two teachers was to try to find out about the take down how well or how many people on the outside and for how long the law enforcement know that happen with Stoneham in Florida, but I'm just wanting from the outside perspective in the insider.

Are you shocked how quick this devolved into politics badly.

Sally, Brian, I'm not shocked, and I think Beto Rourke got there really backfired on.

Americans are tired of this device of politics interesting on the one hand, they wanted to fight the Piper values above, but on the other hand they wanted to come together in times like these, and I think that really has blown back on him. The Senate is in session this week, we saw a session yesterday where Sen. Rick Scott from Florida Ron Johnson tried to move America forward. That would harden our schools. Schumer slapped it down and and and that devolved into the political infighting and people are tired of it and right now we need to be Focus on the Family's what happened yesterday so gutters going over the month debts to tick-tock of what happens is the chain of events that took place that as we try to unwind what and this is what bitter Rourke had somebody hold his seam to the press conference started and then they quickly left her seat and he jumped in and leaned over almost hiding content is expressly set down throughout your outline will so so he got up there stood up and he gradually was tossed out of the press coverage they had a big scrum around them on the outside to degree. Did he accomplish his goal.

Now people talk about him getting the nomination to run for governor again. You know you told political hack approach. Any publicity is good publicity and I guess there's something to that, but look, not in the middle of a bleeping parent for grieving loved ones for a small town in America.

That's just devastated and just trying to figure out what the heck happened and that's really what that briefing was for Adobe future forums to talk about what we do about it.

All of this whether it dealing with gone mental health things that are broken in our society that was just absolutely not the time, and then the way you did. It's one thing to stand up and ask a question it's another thing to have a civil debate. But the really grandstand like that. I think it just I don't think you can accomplish his goals that they can make them seem like the kind of shallow political showman that you want to get into because you know tactics know how to go I go into a room with hostile people.

You probably don't want to knock that's with present by most cop to do to start knocking out before they try to rest a killer estimate come outside a nicely but here's what you abide. I mean, I could not be more angry about this list is cutting the idea 18-year-old to walk into a store and buy weapons of war designed and marketed to kill just wrong just pilots common sense manufacture the inventor of that weapon as well. You know where is the backbone. Where's the courage to stand up to a very powerful lobby really the NRA is this the powerful lobby. If you don't stand if you stand up for your second amendment. You don't have a backbone.

Put your reaction to that. That's the leader of our country really bad moment. I would love to hear the president of the United States really trying to get to the heart of the issue. What is going on.

I heard you on the show earlier talking Lieut. Gov. technical Lieut. Gov. Dan Patrick. I think email me know what is going on the world. We have a societal issue that I think it set the conditions in some ways for this to happen. We have violent video games that children play and parents are under well on totally unaware whether society telling children. It anything is okay.

Whatever you think is okay society thinking that that parents are that when parents are starting to when their kids that it vetted some type of abuse or society telling criminals that they can just commit violent crime and not be held accountable and that's not offering any pollution, but that's really getting to the heart of the weather.

This 18-year-old, or the one in Buffalo wanted to walk in there with a knife or a pistol or an AR 15 or what have you. Okay week week we got a deal with that. Why did he want to do this and kill little kids in the first place. And why is it systemically happening, but that's the root cause that the leader of the free world should be trying to address and leading our society in a better direction, but instead he went right to politics because he knows that numbers are upside down amazing as you go down there and he gives the same speech every time we have dear, don't walk around the Kevlar vest is the same thing all the time you know he had tragic his life. No one is happy about that, but he's not the only only tragedy he keeps on going to this is if it's a great campaign line. John McCain didn't walk around saying I was a prisoner of war every time there was a military conflict affect you couldn't get him to talk about the times he was a prisoner of war. Just the way he does it. It's it it sounds gratuitous personally.

Couple things that happened number one you going to be asked, how do we I would like to analyze the last let's say 15 school shootings.

If there is there is there any commonality between these last 15 school shootings number two. In the meantime, we have to harden the targets and visit ever money needed for economically disadvantaged areas in schools. That's with the national money should go to write, you could put it to those who don't tell me my town is too small. We can afford it to put armed guards front back on every school. While we try to figure this thing out so hard in the targets.

Can't we all agree on that one would think exactly what Rick Scott Ron Johnson try to put on the floor for yesterday that it would codify a federal clearinghouse for school safety practices that are ready on the same page and Brian. By the way, under under coded. We passed $150 billion to go out to schools may become that you be diverted from the latest greatest HVAC systems and and actually harder for just five point of reference.

That's almost the size of the entire United States Army budget but got going out to schools and and I think it could be far better spent the hard number to protect her kids. I think so too. Would you take away these between needs from 18 to 20 want to buy a gun. Well, you know, Florida done that and I think there's a lot of people that they look if you can't buy a beer until 21 you should be able to buy guy. I think that that quick and easy argument, but in the same time you got a constitutional right to have a beer.

You have a constitutional right to protect yourself. I think that the state obviously you know a 19, 20-year-old in Wyoming and in their ability to go get a rifle it different than today and and and and downtown LA and I think this is perfectly appropriate for the state standards understood when you hear this exchange visit could be got you two in Florida, this is Congressman God Tony Gonzalez of Texas on with Gayle King of CBS cut 20 against two gun gun reform measures are you rethinking that position this morning in light of what is happened policy today.

We should unite us as well is it's not a political football for me this is what you think about that that exchange now again they're going right to a symptom rather than the court illness that is causing people to want to do the and believe they can they can go baking to do it get away with it again. Whether that weather kid walked in with a backpack full of pickles whether he walked in with with shotgun or he walked to mean that there there so focused on the individual type of weapon and I'm I want to get to the court illness in the course thickness tear of what's going on so that again, but this is but this is the politics of the left and and I think between I need to turn it into the political conversation for a moment between Roe versus Wade and that ruling that will come out at the end of the month in the shooting.

I think this is where the Democrats believe they have a real issue you see is just something was happy with Ukraine and Russia. Russia try to quickly just basically annex the area in which they have for whether it's variable a cure son and they're looking to try to encircle couple of other towns will could you tell me it's happening on the ground while a couple things. One, you're just saying that the Russians continue to compensate for their failures and logistics command-and-control morale with with heavy artillery, which they have unlimited numbers of the Russian military is the most artillery of any military in the world and unlimited shelter stay shelved 40 cities and towns.

Yesterday, Brian. So they're going to continue to pound away, and meanwhile you're seeing the rush of vacation of the areas that they have taken where they're already putting them on the ruble, they're already trying to send in Russian leaders are already mandating that everybody speak Russian. So so prudent I think is running out of steam. Here he is lost an estimated third 30% of his battle groups and he's essentially gonna move the line and if you listen to people like former Secretary of State Kissinger this week said Zielinski should just give up part of this country just to achieve peace.

That is, I mean that's that's the mentality of 1938 and and and and Neville Chamberlain. If if prudent solidify these lines, he will lick his wounds in the next 3 to 5 years. Mark my words, and he'll be back at it again.

We have to help 20 go on offense. We need to give him the arms and ammunition. He needs to go on offense. Otherwise entire world is going to be facing this crisis in the future and we have to help Zielinski deal the Russians an actual defeat and what about the fact that they basically shut off the black CNL enabling frugal Greyhound and food to leave the breadbasket of Europe and maybe even getting to Africa, Russia, since you will let that happen. If you release all the sanctions which are responsive yeah yeah which is essentially holding food, holding the world's food supply or lease that regions of the hostage.

We just a meeting with the King of Jordan and he was telling us the Palestinian territories, less than a month supply on hand and they're completely dependent. That whole region and in Turkey, the Middle East, Africa.

I mean, this could be a master family crisis if Russia doesn't allow their ships to leave and time is running out. I think one of the things that all of those countries should be talking about putting pressure on Russia about and we should as well along with Europeans as a humanitarian quarter works in, and perhaps even an armed one year Brian we completely defeated the black sea bite and pulled all of our ships out and just gave that I gave that area completely off and I've been asking the Pentagon repeatedly.

When are we going to send our ships back in. Stop appeasing stop letting him deter a bit, but I think we should look seriously at a humanitarian quarter were out of Odessa and let those ships out full of grain, oilseeds, fertilizer think people need to survive and session waters as you point any other point is that they are so scared because they were blown up by with.

I guess some version of the harpoon pulled their ships way back wishes go in and just assert ourselves because I think it's people starving to death is enough of a reason Michael Walter was great. Thanks so much. Okay I 1-866-408-7669 back and take your calls and co-Shimkus at the bottom of the hour, don't move your knowledge base. Brian kill me show Fox News time tasks network and on the next Fox News contributor and editor of the transom.com daily newsletter.

This is Brian kill me show please don't politicize the death record numbers of Americans waters political happening because uniquely American politics happening because 327 million American are essentially hostages to a morally and financially bankrupt gun lobby though. It's called the gun culture because that's how we were fought for freedom and we have a Second Amendment that allows it.

Australia lost you. So what happened to their country and you see what happens.

They disarmed the population when they want to take over population and now you have people like Michael Moore and joyless Reed coming out and saying hey you know what was take the guns away and let's undo the Second Amendment. That's their answer. Joel in Grand Rapids Michigan, Angel and all the actors Hollywood. I can't take away from the movie and then I didn't need Tucker to tell me yesterday right have always known it, and you mentioned earlier commonality with all these while the perks look at those guys there like zombies and you never hear at least I've never heard anybody sandlot get done, Internet games or videos yet for these kids are blindly shooting people would know they don't all day and that's the problem I mean is I know the gun lobby's of the NRA is in tatters the NRA is not even a force the enemy played no role in the 2020 election at all.

The being sued maybe for no reason. I look closely at the case by the Atty. Gen. New York others had terrible leadership. The states threw away a lot of their money to did not have a powerful lobby is people live like guns. The law-abiding people with guns are not the issue. The people are crazy people will find a way to get guns like they always do. 18 to 21. Let's have let's have a talk about that red flag was let's try to do it right, but other things, vilifying that second work that's anti-leader Fox News time just network these ever-changing times you can rely on Fox News for hourly updates for the very latest news and information on your listening download now in Fox News time just.com or wherever you get your favorite contest will gain close to Fox and friends, we can share my thoughts in a wide range of topics in sports and pop culture, politics and business.

It's not about the power necessary, but the why and in the sense that these are people that want to harm people in a mass scale an instrument to use in many cases are guns, but that sentiment of wanting to hurt people's well really need to really focus on one thing I can tell you is we do have tools available now for risk assessment. It's one of the ways the Secret Service protects presidents is not so much about the physical protection alone is that they are able to profile and identify people and they believe pose a threat to the president or leader and are able to go to them and prevent them from acting in that same system that is able to identify that that risk assessment protocols exist for things like mass shooting in and the question becomes can you have tools in place to identify and intervene before people take that next step. Sir Marco Rubio try to think analytically about how to stop the next attack rather politically, had a score for it.

And yes, he is in no not an easy race.

Val Deming's to keep ascendancy for six more years with me right now.

Co-Shimkus is always in the battle to keep her seat for the next six years. You really run on for your terms right until the pressure you like to always be raising money that's that's the problem so you surprised how quickly this to Bob and the politics of in the present with our is is talking about politics and then obviously they are rock yesterday ways stunning out what I was watching the time and going that's shocking you don't expect anything like that to happen when about listening to it and then Sandra and John can dominate. Yet it was they now like I think he did himself so much political damage by doing that and making the moment completely about himself at a time when people are grieving, and I guess he thought about ways scoring political points in his floundering in failing to Vittorio Ryan on it is a shame I don't think it should be a focus with this right moment maybe pupil the left are paying attention to. Maybe they've maybe I mean Carly. That's how I feel. That's obviously I think your assessment, but maybe pupil ellipticals bookie standing up that Gov. Wallace and I was a little clip that we played on Fox and friends first. Maybe there is a greater context and that segment than what we Aaron but she was saying something like this is how the trip they are entering data like kicking in out that really says a lot about the city of volunteer or how Texas is treating the situation really. I'm that person on the case is they is the in his eye that said at the twist lobby needs you want. First he says I want to raise going away.

Remember to be guns are for Joe Biden's Family. Only 47 yes anyone take on the wall to, as I would take on that. Well if I become if I was can present. And then he change that now when he starts running for governor. So now what does he think what would he do different well he said on the campaign trail. He said know no one taking your guns away anymore. I think even said that he wanted to protect the Second Amendment and then this school shooting happens and he's standing up at Prescott conference and saying the exact opposite. So I don't know where he stands on the issue here what you in fact we have it. He had a little scrum afterwards cut 18 solutions tuition universal background checks you want to solution red flag laws or extreme risk protection or switch to stop shooting before it happens. One solution safe storage for solutions is been brought up by the people of Texas. Each one of those broad bipartisan support.

Right now we can get that done about the people of Texas as his own political career was fealty to the approval that struck the schedule for the NRA convention this Friday right here in the state of Texas will be in Houston and that's the NRA can have conventions. I do know that yet will does political opinions in the country guys and not completely fine. Nobody's arguing that that political debate can and should happen in this country. That's how we operate as a democracy. It's the fact that he timing of when he tried to do this now South Boston to the press conference and a day after the second most deadly school shooting and yell at people that's really gonna change their mind, then you are crazy no no minds are being changed on gun control because Beto Rourke stood up there and pointed fingers and was shamefully kicked out by law enforcement from front of the Civic Center where they are holding us comfortable. Let's look at somebody just said universal background pictures, background checks, number two. Stop selling era 15s that's a debate that we've pretty much to prepare prevalent that they are not assault weapons, that weapons of war.

They are commonplace in this country don't have a debate on that. I think red flag laws are could be good if implemented, the correct way we we would stop the guy in Buffalo because at the very least, gun owner, and this guy just sat down for 90 minutes or two and half hours with state police because of his mental illness and threatening to blow up the school and shoot up a school. I like to know about that before he sold the gun, but when he comes to when it comes to what they're talking about in terms of red flags. This kid had no right now. This guy had not.

So anyone in their new Pentagon stores.

I feel terrible, but this too is always a risk not having turned 18 I went about raising the age of 21. The Florida did under Republican governor.

We sent Michael wall traces that's really up to your state right so you could have the debate if you think that I'm going back and forth on this and don't drink 221 when going to war you get training you said yeah but the point is that you can.

This debate is something that should be had. I just at that time that each has had at least completely self disgusting and ridiculous try to accuse the other side of it and be NBC seem to love it. Cut 19 political thought about our work thing yesterday. I think is going to continue.

This is the kind of thing where this is what a lot of Democrats have been hoping for in the state of Texas under expressed frustration that they have felt it's in line with the kind of politics. He has like to practice evidence in line with the political theory that says there is a voter base in Texas who wants the kind of thing that you been outlining that there is an 80% majority in a state like Texas who wants the kind of policies that we haven't seen here in this state like red flag laws which were discussed after Santa Fe and Sutherland Springs.

The other two. Mass shootings in Texas but didn't get off the ground. The question of buying longjohns buying rifles at 18, but handguns are not allowed to be bought in Texas until you're 21 is the other big piece of this puzzle. Gov. Abbott was asked about that at the press conference and made an argument that it's been 60 years that that's been the law in Texas that you could buy a long done. 18 not a handgun and essentially said that was the reason not to change it is a Texan myself, I can tell you that a very much has changed in this state in 16 years and that that question deserves a follow-up yeah where you stand on this issue depends on where you set now, politically, and I think that the alliance people to support Second Amendment say we hear you there by a diverse. There are more guns in this country and people so you can't taking guns away from law-abiding citizens isn't going to stop that Adam Lanza and Sandy Hook. He kills his mom and takes her guns okay the age to be 40 nonstop you bring up Adam Lanza and then you think about that Parkland shooter and dating back to Columbine and I think this time around.

There is huge focus on who is committing these mass murderers at school and they are all teenage boys. Why is that happening and you know there is clearly a mental illness factor that is going on in this country like we've never seen before and we had Jack Peron and he was talking about how it there's a breakdown in family structure and society and religion are likely never seen before in this country. I mean my parents and have to deal with mass shootings but it started in the 90s and it's continuing in today and into today in a more aggressive fashion than ever before self, looking at the psychology of these people and really targeting who they are. I think it be beneficial to figuring out really was going on here I to the other thing is to talk about tone deafness yesterday. The president announced I know is true, the anniversary. George Floyd's murder, but he was killed.

Legal netreform inconsequential acts all looking to diminish their power. Number one let's let's limit no knock warrant okay so you go. Break into that house. Mr. politician until the murderer to give himself up knock first you mind and then we come to show cause find you see some of these assailants will no longer have the fear of cops so don't shoot them limited time use the the stun gun and number three is whatever you do don't restrain them in a way that might be perceived as a chokehold so why were you rolling that out yesterday when clearly the problem is law and disorder, not law enforcement. I think that everybody across the board really recognizes now that cops are not the problem.

Maybe the president needs to be clued in on that.

If there's one bad officer then that person should not be a police officer taken out.

We don't want you here, but to demonize all police and really that's what this is about. This was a message at the president was sending that we need to tighten the reins around law enforcement because we don't trust you needed at a time when crime is on the rise across the country.

Any national mood right now it is pro police because we recognize what happened when you cut police out of the equation so course he was doing it because of the death of George Flay but he also didn't dampen school shooting took place and it police ran into the life I was exactly that these were the black vote more and anything else Heather MacDonald who breaks down law enforcement anybody else with the best statues I would talk less like a 37. The police are not the problem in the black community. Criminals are the police shot six allegedly unarmed Blacks in 2021. Compare that to the 10,000 Blacks were killed by criminals. In fact, the police officer is 400 times as likely to be killed by a black is an unarmed black is to be killed by police officer George Floyd's death was sickening but it wasn't a pattern it doesn't represent the way most Blacks die and if Biden really cared about black lives.

He would call for law and order and stop demonizing the cops you need to see anymore and she's armed with the facts and the statistics and she is afraid to say that she's with the heritage foundation ably and 97 children had been shot 97 children had been shot in Chicago. Chicago alone so far this year and is reading about one of Dan. He was murdered last weekend over the weekend before. His name is Chantel holiday on and it's so sad. He was 17 years old and he recently told his teacher in his honest conversation about his future and teacher said what you want to be when you grow up and he said well if I make it to 21. I want to be my own music studio while you make it to 21. You know I mean it. Chicago kids die all the time and the fact that he even knew that was the date that was the ever present danger in his life. He need to make it 18 are tragic. Yeah, I was in Los Angeles when those first rights. Abbott and 94 and I was interviewing the schoolkids and other. This one kid said to me. I've always been told. No one ever promises you tomorrow. Eddie was like 11 wow yeah I know I will promise you tomorrow anything that's going on in Chicago right now. It really did Brian really really did coincide with the riots in the black lives matter movement in the summer of 2020 is that the bad areas Chicago the tale of two cities for sure that areas are getting worse in the nice areas are getting really dangerous nation grab to. I mean yeah but shootings tale I and there was my husband.

We have an apartment in Chicago and on incident. It's a good area. There was a man sitting right outside the apartment a couple couple months about eight people got shot and it's just that's kind of becoming the norm, and it is really concerning and I think life that ran on a platform of fixing the issue and it has completely devolved under her think she's not that good of abusing a jump to conclusions intuitiveness that I really like that you write. That's one of your superlative to have any others know you can use a long pause ever saying hey we come back a little bit more, maybe takes you know you know what Mike did focus more call quality time with the with Carly because I do want to talk to about baby formula and what we found out yesterday will buckle up into July. No joke entertaining and like you're with Brian kill me no more you listen more, you'll know Brian kill me. During the hearing on the work of work to slow some of the surgeons and brothers could've been more so that is the talk yesterday.

The new FDA commission came out to try to explain why we don't have any baby formula in the most powerful country in the world. Co-Shimkus year Carly.

It turns out in the whistleblower put something in the mail saying this is that this let the epilepsy mess and it was yeah that inspection should be, and it turns out it got caught in the mailroom by the time we got back to the guy.

It was December already. By the time they saw the lab subject dangerous. It was a shut it down, but no one shut it down and see what happens if we shut it down.

Does anyone know this is 40% of the entire market in the whole country to be out of now mailroom element is like the most government excuse ever the mailroom so embarrassing it really is so embarrassing and then we also learned that the lab then the plan was a total mess leaking roofs. Water pooled on the floor cracks in key production equipment that allow bacteria to get in and process.

That's what the FDA Commissioner told the House panel yesterday. He said that it was agreed justly unsanitary.

The plant didn't need to be shut down and then I have heard the argument that one of the things that the FDA could do more to do more inspections because apparently this plan had been expected in a really long time so people get sloppy right and so some people are saying okay will the only way to get more inspections going as you have to give the FDA more money there. Their budget is $8 billion to some outrageous and if you can't do regular inspections on these key factories, especially ones that provide food for babies with an $8 billion budget that's on you. We don't need to increase the budget.

You just need to do better management of the money that you help with this. If you're the FDA and you shut down something like that you you don't you jump start on their estate haven't fixed it set up timelines because it could affect national security. Your job then acting director whoever it is is go to the White House and say by the way, commerce could become a secretary.

This can be a problem because we don't get this up and running a short minute time we have to have a plan.

Does anyone think bigger responsibility now so that you nor Joe if you say all I do is read the news. If you have another anchor there on the couch is really not my father metatarsal an empty couch to keep you here see what happened now why can anyone think beyond the paycheck is truly unbelievable. And it's not the FDA Commissioner's fault right that that testified yesterday could I just got a job. Yeah why did you take forever to nominate, especially when you're coming off a pandemic. You would think that would be one of the first commissioner is that the by demonstration would want to appoint. I really do wonder why it took them so long out on these like the ATF guide anywhere two years and that is this normal usually know it doesn't but a lot of times nominations are held up within this case. They're just not make so well the first ATF guy was. It was anti-so anti-gun he could get past right right and this new guy doesn't seem as one of you just wanted to find what is wrong with you that we want to ban this outlet and identify nominating for all that you would use a which persuaded the music to eventually get letter off site should I say goodbye now shut by college.

I Fox News radio studios in New York City giving you opinions and facts with a positive approach.

Brian kill me.

I want thank you much was the right to me Joe, six around the country from the world, especially in Ukraine. This arrow going to go inside the evolving shootings and the latest on the timeline Commissioner Ray Kelly, 34 minutes with me in studio is averaging looking to get here for one very good reason. If it is counterproductive in his free time is writing books it frees you up from your DC contract is the 16th supreme Allied Cmdr. of NATO.

Your kind enough to do the radio show with me on a regular basis. You got that because that you fought hard to put in.

I'm sure by now you have out on paperback are risk it all nine conflicts in the crucible of division are you also have other recent books the sailors off the sales bookshelf 50 books to know the sea, and 2034 a novel of the next world war would freak a lot of people out because it seems like it's playing out right now but risk it always a new book right brand-new Brian just came out this weekend. I'm pretty propitious timing if you will, in the sense that in this war. In Ukraine you see two leaders who work kind of risking it all you got, Vladimir Putin, the dark side of risks to recklessness, the lack of a moral foundation.

On the other side you have loaded Tamir Zelinski who is literally risking everything he looks over his shoulder from those front lines. He sees his wife, his children, his parents, the elders in his society, his cities, his civilization, his language he is risking it all alongside other Ukrainians. These two leaders are colliding and it's all about risks of the book to risk it all I think comes out it up pretty good time and that some people just under this act are that is somebody there a lot of people in take serious it is. First he ran on him in a minute I'll be able to work with Vladimir Putin.

He's a guy that worked in Moscow doing his chosen kind of new Russian culture, but on the other side. He looked at Vladimir Putin looked as pure weakness. This guy doesn't have the moral fiber he doesn't. He thinks going to deal with me really learned on stage and it told he was totally wrong. Mr. KGB was totally wrong hundred percent correct and let's add to that that flow. Tamir Zelinski is 5 feet five and 5 inches tall. He's my height, I'm a very short guys. You know you're looking at me.

I can barely see over this my favorite things and is a powerful gland and Zelinski is remarkable.

He is almost like Winston Churchill in this moment and we are to continue to be behind him and behind this nation for all the reasons we know will think about this. How horrific of the of all the shooting was when you have 19 children between eight and 10 years old, who were murdered by some twisted 18-year-old. He felt compelled with all the the Cornish cities experience to offer condolences here to this country to the parents here. That's how horrific this was indeed it's just hard to imagine and I saw cover of the New York Post coming in here with the photographs of those little angelic faces and it breaks your heart, and a second piece of this. Brian and and you raise it correctly is as we ought to. We need to have a big huge national debate about why this is happening, what to do about it.

But you know where I come from, is the international world and I will tell you, Brian. This hurts us in the world. It makes other nations question us. He reduces our ability to lead. There is an international component to this that goes beyond our domestic tragedy. What you think. There is more violence here. It seems I haven't looked at the stats, but this is just just from cleaning from the headlines. I can tell you what's going on, the Netherlands, I can't tell you what's going on in Germany, but we don't see things like this will first and foremost were awash in guns and again we need a national debate about this, but I am with most Americans. Polls consistently show we need to find a way to control the the huge numbers of guns and if you look at the numbers and look at that guns per person kind of ratios that's I think problem one problem two is Americans have a very independent sense of themselves. We've always been a fractious country have divisions in our society. I think that is part of these challenges. Thirdly, and I heard your previous guests talking about it.

So many of these are young males and I am concerned about that demographic. You know the in so many cases the young boys are the challenge here and I think we need more focus on how we are raising our boys in this society. Only one thing I would do and I would think you would would support this is okay with the problem. The problem is these these this these kids become assassins. A lot of times for some issues. The horrific move. It's not like they've killed what we finally got a method in 19th time. So number one it's it that's I combines usually one person. Why can't we get experts, law enforcement, forensic experts, criminal justice is to study this and see with the commonality is at the same time you harden the targets with all the great military minds we have, like yourself, we can harden targets and if you want it ever naturally fund anything to get and would get bipartisan support.

It would be for the smallest town in the big city to have financing to get the right security so you know you do this, these guys getting a kill before they get in and what were or what our security would have broken as opposed to not be there. Why can we do those two things and I'll add 1/3 which is the ability to have so-called red flag events so that we can be watching what's happening on social media in so many times these red flags are out there. So I think the point were both making is there is no silver bullet here. Yes, no, one thing that's going to solve this, but this particular shooting is so heartbreaking that I I am hopeful it will at least get different people to come in together with different solutions, several of which you and I just talked and I view for two segments right you do okay great I just want talk so Toby your book, but I also want to talk about what's going on with our Russia and Ukraine. We seem to be writing very positively and nobody phoned more for Ukraine than I am about what's gonna but I see even the New York Times is writing very possibly putting up the nine good things going on the crimper. By the way, the Russians have begun to move towards changing the currency and curse on MM variable and surround in various cities and expanding their reach. So I even though they're paying an awful price they are expanding where we had as you with the with all the experience you had a military operation sandwiching over the region. Yes, supreme Allied Cmdr. of NATO.

I literally looked at all of these scenarios. This is not a fresh new music here prudently invaded Georgia in 2008 he invaded Ukraine the first time in 2014 so NATO has been studying this in some depth and yes the Russians are making some small advances you know you're the sports guy.

It's kinda 3 yards and a cloud of dust.

At best, and it's more like one or 2 yards is going very slowly and so much a life is compared to what so Putin's plan was to take the entire country and so yeah he's grinding out a few more kilometers I don't think he's going to get much more than that. That's the good news. The bad news is it's gonna be very difficult militarily to dislodge him from this so-called land bridge that he's created from mother Russia down through the doomed city of Mary Opal down to Crimea. It's hard to see a military solution there so to push them back correct him because think about it this way, Brian, and you know this in military terms.

We always say that defense is an offense history is to one, so the Ukrainians had the advantage because they were on defense. Well guess what now is troops are again they've got very strong defenses. So for the Ukrainians to overcome. It is can be very difficult. So, bottom line, I think, ultimately working at go to some kind of an armistice state, a war probably continues. Think of the Korean Peninsula were North and South Korea are still technically at war. I think that's probably how this ends it'll be months, but I don't think it's gonna be years. Here's a couple things. It also this guerrilla war aspect with the little guy gets to. So if your son already was taken immediately. All you heard about the mayor got shot already got blown up.

The Russian appointed mayor number two is the Ukrainians are to be on the can be relentless so the Russian Tory disparity might be same way I muck to be a mayor there on the code go grab Mary open the Mary Opal Mayor ship to be good law enforcement to be a cop there a been conscripted for one year and even what I'm doing uniform does even fit. So if they continue to be harassed and blown up almost like the Iraqis were doing with us that could be an interesting scenario right absolutely and to some degree. All of this for Vladimir Putin is the original poisoned chalice. You know he's won this prize, except it's full of poison and it's gonna cost him billions and billions of rubles that are getting scarcer and scarcer as he falls under sanctions and your point. Ukrainians have shown us. If nothing else, they are very tough, very determined people.

I know you always thought about scenarios and the right. If had a lot of your books are like that. But did you ever think to Finland and Sweden be knock on the door, filling out applications to be a member.

NATO and the gotta be fast-track. Right now he call Vladimir Putin himself did the two of Pres. Finland and he said you'd I'm not a threat to you while I'm doing this anyway. Yet that distant boom you just heard is Vladimir Putin's head exploding Windows applications hit NATO to answer the question when I was supreme Allied Cmdr., I literally begged the Swedes and the fins to at least think about joining NATO, but they were determined to remain kinda neutral. Putin is the greatest salesman for NATO in the history of the alliance here to get the salesman of the year award and we want them. Believe me, Brian. These are two very capable militaries they deployed under my command as allies to NATO into Afghanistan.

Heck, my security detail was a bunch of 6'4" Swedish Vikings follow me around in the Balkans to sows once he was asked by Jonathan Swan, would you say to Americans is a this is not our file problem. Here's what he said, 44 to start reading memoirs of this war so people think this is just for you. This is our way this is no spaces somewhere in the well will this much smaller than we think he's telling us you guys study history at all.

This is your fight eventually.

He's exactly right.

And recall that World War II analogy with Zielinski now playing the part of Churchill what did Churchill say to FDR he said give us the tools we can do the job and I think that's exactly what's unfolding.

We need to continue to push those tools forward.

Adding Finland and Sweden will be a powerful disincentive for Russia at the big level. Things are going pretty well despite some small Russian advance, Emma Jim Shavit is here right now. His book is now out risk it all nine conflicts in the crucible of the decision in just a moment. We'll talk about that when we come back and more use of the brain to meet you diving deep into today's top story. Brian, kill me if you're interested in it.

Brian is talking about your Brian kill me about 10 minutes telling us about your target killers till now what approximation and with James W distant video.

One thing he's got a great book out it's all risk it all nine conflicts in the crucible of decision talk to me about this. The book Brian is story of nine different individuals, men and women who have to make a decision under extreme stress. So many of our decisions are made with time.

We can talk to mentors. We can think about it. The big decisions, but occasionally you have to make a decision now now now think of an active shooter as we've been talking about are either in charge or you run or you can hide those kind of decisions are hard and so what I do is talk about these nine sailors because that's what I know and talk about their moment of decision.

Both men and women and then trying draw some lessons from it that can be applied for anybody.

So it's really book for anybody who faces hard decisions and what you've done of the past leads up to making the best decision possible. Right mean you can when you get lucky or you could say my whole life I've been waiting for this moment and act instinctively which is what you practice in sports or anything like that. You don't tell Tom Brady with the Dewey feels it at this point, so give me one short I'm good at coming to start at the very beginning and that's John Paul Jones if you will the father.

The American Navy.

He is on board his ship the bun Armory shard fighting the British in the 1770s off the coast of the United Kingdom and his ship is literally being blown apart underneath him. His crew is begging him to surrender John Paul Jones. Here's the Capt. on the other ship the Serapis call across the space between the two ships are grappling at this point in the British captain says now is the moment you must strike your colors and John Paul Jones says Sir I have not yet begun to fight and he wins that battle.

It's that determination that can get us through so many of these hard decisions where we have to risk it all and a lot of times it comes from mistakes made the past, absolutely. And your point also about preparation. It comes from study and thinking about others and then put yourself in their shoes. I give you one other example it's a woman, Adm. She's a one star at this point name Michelle Howard. She is the on station. Adm., when Capt. Phillips is taken hostage by all of the Somali pirates and Michelle is a brand-new Adm. she's just kinda learning the ropes. But what she does is she relies on all this preparation, but she also brings together all the different tools at her disposal and makes the decision to take the shot that kills those hostages if you seen the film. Capt. Phillips is a remarkable story and behind it is this navy one star Adm. quite new to her job makes the right decision because of all the preparation your point right seal team six was that those who do not in for by bin Laden before they did the bin Laden raid right it's an amazing story, and in one of the toughest sniper shots because they are on a pitching deck on the back of the destroyer taking the shot down into a very small lifeboat so that's really a hard sniper shot normally. Of course the snipers on land. The targets on land. This is as hard a shot as you can imagine the executor to flawlessly. I think another guard took the shot. The guy might've met him. Good for you right okay when I don't recommend height is to get detail on that so that is that is also tremendous is good to have instincts with that Adm. Are you concerned with the battle having right now. We just got $33 billion and some Republicans bailed out of supporting that.

Are you concerned about where were going with this. And do you think the administration to do a better job maybe making people feel better. That is going to the right people and it's getting in the right hands. Yeah, I'm always understanding when legislators say, you know, that's a lot of money and we need to make sure your point it gets to the right kind of tools to put those in the hands of the Ukrainians and that's not corruption funneling it off the component.

I got it I got that. But this is a big big moment and so here you you have a world where Nancy Pelosi and Mitch McConnell are in total agreement about doing this so I think that between the two parties will be plenty of oversight we've got the Inspector General's sure, but I would say to any member of Congress.

Please get behind this. It matters and I want the military to understand.

Do not give them the people did the isolationists a reason to say I told you so back to history. World War II absolutely eventually will get to get in if we don't pay attention exact. This is all we wanted from Afghanistan. Let them fight for their own freedom.

I will congratulations go pick up his book, you will not you will not regret it. Risk it all nine conflicts in the crucible of decision shall see you soon hopefully on on one nation on the weekend with you at your command radio that makes you think this is the Brian kill me and show what law enforcement is the public neighbors, schoolteachers, relatives, friends, classmates, whoever the people who are likely somebody's behavior online and see it change from just being somebody just blowing off steam to taking a bit of a turn that is Commissioner Ray talk about what would help in his testimony yesterday. The FBI because it was try to stop the school shooting at the same time try to stop an assassination attempt by the prayer on the phone prison United States, George W. Bush, and we are able to infiltrate that to the FBI and guess where the assailant will come in from ISIS from the southern border and angry Iraqis that Ray Kelly but had both worked his own counterterrorism unit in New York City when at these longest-serving police commissioner through a with Mike Bloomberg and the head of a previous term.

Ray Kelly joined just now Commissioner. First off is all we have to point out the FBI's asking the American people to help out the neighbors are really going to be one of our unused assets here were family members turning in there would be unbalanced kids. I don't have a problem with the red flag process that is employed in 17 space that if you see someone emotionally stable indications that they going to commit violent acts.

You notify the employee please can come in temporarily take a weapon from the person taking the appropriate and then take the case to Judge Siewert. What a perhaps a permanent solution or all more permanent solution conveyed. I think that the one appropriate ways to go but very few people know about the flight look better avocado do not want the police don't know about it is what you know I think it's something of value to do so is not something that I think can have an effect. I talked with the soul time, but I would look at the last 10 to 25 school shootings and see if there's any commonalities between them nonetheless to both 18-year-olds. Both got there, both both got their guns illegally are the Buffalo shooter was somebody that you had to sit down state police because of his threatened book is going to himself any of them is considered okay to buy a gun that did not appear in his background check. When he went and picked up the gun that ends up killing his people in Buffalo.

So as we look at these cases. In particular if Ray Kelly I'm thinking. First off, we got to harden the targets foot from this most big school in the country but in the meantime, would we do to stop the next attack on the card and I think the money out there." Good morning" rollout of school districts should be able to fund a security guard on person but then the start of the school log that will drive the number security people but yeah I think the time is come to do that in particular places like Texas to know where you can wait 20 minutes for above police officer to arrive grade for 911 call just because of the distances. I can see having a rain guard or ideally a police officer could be at the school locations are going to give parents a much-needed sense of comfort in the situation as we understand it and we know how much things will change. We understand there was about 40 to 60 minutes before some people are saying before the police in this case, the sum of the elite border patrol were able to enter the school with a big shield is in a one unit get into that classroom take some incoming shots and then kill the shooter.

So does that time seen in Orden to you absolutely tired of the letter from Columbine, 1990.the overarching lesson from that situation that the police waited key law in got it away yet dangerous work, get paid for their different ways to approach that they waited in my judgment, way too long that and in a situation like that, you got a man to make a quick tactical vision and the get go and unfortunately that that was in the water that saved lives. You know I do.

They were there. While the treatment going on, but the days they definitely violated the cardinal rule these days and mass shootings. Are you getting going, particularly when children are involved, and I'm open to the fact we don't have all the facts yet but right now that's with the EP and New York Times reporting and we have not seen the police command so you you're right we were on the outside trying to assess the situation, like who happen in Florida at Stoneham.

They stood on the outside and the police Commissioner just said you are are I do is stay back and can and try to contain it all which obviously as it was a horrible mistake is when an and this guy just went on a shooting rampage in this situation is people getting frustrated the playing politics. If you asked me in there saying Redgrave AR 15's number one number two you got a raise the age to 21 and number three of universal background checks. I'm not in the red flag law.

First off when it comes to red flag law. If you were to define what it is how we would qualify for you to temporarily or personally take my gun away. I think I think you know it when you see it police officers would respond making a call to their observation of what's happening now they can take a weapon, but only temporary station. This is holding that weapon and then in every state is a little bit different contracting company in but then that case is presented and so do processes involved in the judge makes a determination as to what the final outcome of final, but the patient should be the individual needs medical that that's what the judge could do I make it a good policy.

Can it be abuse possibly to BD but we don't have enough data on because quite frankly a little bit user has been used in the and I think it is because no advertising just don't know about that and I think the cops don't know about that even think that all the books so that the process I think it may be a different purchaser different things that happened in the faith, but overall I think the sound.

A sound approach to solve the problem right we do is raise the age to 21. You know, probably like to consume probably not going to give the help very much, but it gives the legislature something you do set them something to do, so that that would not be that would not be effective. So would you think the fact is I look at the last five shooters are all mentally unbalanced. Not a lot of them were killing for the first time they don't have 19 arrests like the subway shooter that we saw on Sunday, so these kids seem to be loners. Number one, there seem to be some similarities number two number two very involved in some type of social media or our video games and indications that their antisocial, but that doesn't mean necessarily should call the cops and say I'm worried that this guys going to go shoot up a school. So how do it on the offensive with this and is there something that you noticing about you been in the business for so long.

You will viewed you start is just as a cop on the street is a something different about the these two recent generations know there think of the moral law, and social interaction, probably because of the the Internet that have their community and I all communicating. I also video games may well play a role because they are they are really all about violent winds that I see are particularly gruesome shooting people in our great abandon on the site so that it will take 30 smart of the confirm that I think it is something that should be at least and Terrence paid attention to the video games is no death and destruction on the videogame several hours a day. There are, I don't know but I like the accompaniment qualifications.

Take a look at right is so so everybody's adjusting God's police Commissioner right around me this morning said by the way, Nassau County. This we have done explains it is done a lot you're now allowed to have gone in, for example, in towns by me on Long Island. You're allowed to have armed all armed officers there if if the if you so choose to protect the school from would be a situation like we saw anybody. I also saw the that Mayor Adams comes out any selling Chad telling all parents to check the backpacks of their kids. Make sure that I bring guns to school that they brought up they found two guns in schools.

Just last week and is also urging us to go back in the subways and buses despite we saw on Sunday we think about what New York City's doing well more crime is 40%. New York, the term everything is up and could take it. I was looking at some of the wealthy area of the city. The upper East side of Manhattan.

Probably on the wealthiest were involved in the world of robbery is up there for 50% grandiosity order grandma from the person of a purse snatch robbery being kind of a classic monkey we know people are leaving the city, and we know people not writing on the subway because of fear of crime service have shown several services that have shown so you have to do more, you know, I think if the anti-crime unit that we used to have incivility close all absolutely essential and they been limited by the blog administration. We need the perpetrators of these crimes have to look over the shoulder and see if there's somebody calling him or somebody got wind breakers on the only focus on God. That's basically say I'm a policeman and and they only focus on guns.

I understand that you know I don't know about (what are they doing focusing on ongoing uniform wearing a uniform that unit community will yell out one for people so the city so please Mrs. job used to have Ray Kelly school is giving private unannounced security briefings to the top top firms in the city, including the four big accounting firms want to Goldman Sachs is right now only 8% of Manhattan office workers are back five days a week that the ripple effects that is there not using mass transit know that's revenue the not certainly not using subways that's revenue so if you not getting people back into go out to lunch and go to the car to the end of the block are not going shopping that is ripple effect to the city they got this huge budget and their of the tax revenue so these one-on-one briefings.

Have you ever gone to that point and are they effective well I tell her we know of people medical. Wealthy people leaving the city and the primary reason that were told fear of crime. So please, Commissioner can talk to me to assuage that concern show on paper. And the numbers speak for themselves. Now we've got a lot of time transit crime is only 60% that this is the reality of life in New York. We can talk all we want about how horrific it is and we're going to stop chocolate no action. The action is reflective on the slick scribes nominated on a weekly basis.

Here, crime is 4040% in New York City the wrong reason.

Grand larceny grandma semiauto over 50% interest.

I have found this man that 2000 22,021. I find years sober talking about a percentage increase coming from a base that itself is people" shooting to Dan but down 7% in 2000 2200% in 2021 Iraq 70% so inordinately high in New York and now people can feel it on the street you just read the paper you can you can got to the test emergency on on the street below concern of walkout walk on the street and you said right & you try to say is make the city safe. You don't need to. Briefings will figure it out for ourselves.

Commissioner Ray Kelly, thanks much appreciate your expertise right and try to have a great Memorial day three days 1-866-408-7669 I see in there from Orlando over to Gainesville up to Albany New York use of the brain to Mitchell get the all we come back and use the fax to Bryan's got a lot more to say. Stay with Brian until made breaking news opinions. All Brian until made to go clean but don't politicize the BS that is, record numbers of Americans slaughter our political happening because of uniquely American politics. They are happening because 327 million Americans are essentially hostages to a morally and financially bankrupt gun lobby and the heartless, gutless politicians that they buy and own. I live every day as to what we played you a revisit you so absurd that yesterday's politics NRA just is really nuts. The president's remarks coming off that coming off his trip to the Far East comes back he says he NRA stand up. You don't need a Kevlar vest on a do this Board that you were Kevlar vest. What he needed an assault weapon was not labeled as a weapon we have these talks. If you want to takes is take it difficult if you actually want to solve a problem.

He 78 years old. How much longer do you want to play politics for what you put together blue ribbon panel of law enforcement experts, will some respected politicians Tom Daschle Trent Lott. They tend to be very very acceptable on both sides want to go ahead and say let's study the last 20 shootings. Let's either succumb it now to hear what she was change.

Let's see what's going on with the actual assailants and killers obscenely. You and I are nuts because these people have gone to go crazy stuff to get away from people to want a hunter shoot then because people are nothing go crazy and realize this is separation filled On that separation stop.

The next attack. In the meantime we could do right away is for every target now live from the Fox News radio's New York City rash office set up Fox and friends saw America's receptive voice.

Brian would kill me. Thanks much greener buddies.

The brain kill me Joe company from 46 but heard around the country heard round the world this out by martinis and Washington Post boxes contributor Chris Rufo, Chris for the senior fellow. The Manhattan Institute program series of big stories along the way. I'm just amazed at how much politics is playing a role with this horrific school shooting that's going to live on in memory like Sandy Hook for all the wrong reasons but it took nine seconds for this administration to stop playing politics with it and hope Republicans day out, so it's good to the big three, before we talk to Mark the stories you need to know Brian's three sponsored by life facts save a life in a choking emergency visit life back.net to learn more and use code BK tend to save 10% number three Executive Order raises bands chokehold restricts no knock warrants tightens use of force policies emphasize de-escalation stop. Another officer is an executive force, just as occurred yet. There's no commas and no spaces between words and the president's world tone deaf or just idiotic that the choice I give you is the present decides to stick to his time unannounced police reform.

Cops really care the problem. My goodness appears timeliness of interviewing the whistleblower and getting under the facility for Parker for cause instruction or to slow some decisions in retrospect could have been more optimal robbery caliph use the new FDI director, but he was not on the job until recently, and he's talking about the baby formula debacle it straight. You think the stress is bad now it's going to last until July. We got the details on what we know right now that this particular shooter did not have a criminal background about no gang affiliation.

We do know that he was residing with the grandparents at this time and also that he was unemployed at a high school dropout the shooter and you Baldy leaves 21 dead. 19 kids were learning more about the timeline of events, and out of nowhere help of the politicians are playing politics within hours of the school shooting. Try to jam down gum before long the gun reform and blame the NRA when you simply didn't exist. And if you bear O'Rourke look pathetic and interrupting a press conference as we try to make heads or tails about what happened in Texas with the right now is more teasing, you know, Mark Mark, welcome back.

So, so, first of the prison United States is the problem is, Republicans have the guts to stand up to the NRA is at the problem.

I know not like teaching kids and parents are grieving and like in a nano second they're using it for political purpose and is so shocking that we don't used to take like a moment to stop and take a breath and greet with the family like were not in our politics become so bad so that shameful number one number two no problem if there is a mental health problem school security problem. You know I was. We can secure federal courthouses. We secure airport.

We secure all sorts of building like you. You can't walk into a federal courthouse and with a gun and get in there because there's enough security and why do we not by now or at least one or two armed police officers at every school public school in America no reason why what what why do shooting why the shootings are happening you can harden every target we gotta do it and don't tell me this. Not money there from the pandemic to use it. Of course, in order to secure the country and so we secure secured other other parts of the country made her heart. Whether whether a terrorist or a crazed person or a mentally ill person. Whatever we need to be a partner school. It's not rocket science, and the idea that you know when when somebody abuses their free speech rights. We don't talk about taking people's First Amendment rights to deal with it. So why would somebody abuses gone why we take away a constitutional right away from lawful citizens who did nothing wrong. In order to in order to do what to do about it just yet. You don't take away fundamental rights we find other ways to protect it. Listen to just interrupt the press conference he had somebody hold the seat on his staff, I imagine. And then the minute the press conference started.

They quickly swapped in incomes beta O'Rourke of the Democratic nomination to be the next governor of Texas hold your tongue got 10 fixtures that are out of your outline will serve you got it to benefit from this even though I I'm sure use you with me this. It was wildly inappropriate and if he if you want to hold the press covers want to be governor. That's we do, don't interrupt one hours but we just unravel the identities of all the kids were killed. No political event governor and the leaders of the state were holding a press conference to update people on the law enforcement operations are surrounding this and what and what we know about what happened and what this word providing vital information for people who are grieving at Staples worry he comes in and disrupt the political stunt.

I remember how rich people were when president from premier early in the pandemic.server getting into fights with reporters during the briefing because of the time like that people wanted to know information what's going on with the pandemic what's going on with the virus and they got upset about that but it's okay for beta O'Rourke to come into it to a government briefing where they're trying to update people on a on a tragedy was taken place and to turn that into political into political theorists is absolutely appalling that he's the mayor who used one interrupting him with a cane. By the way, special cancer surgery.

Cut 14 person I don't and so you might be a hero to the left and number. When I hear that that city leads Democratic you know what might have inspired a lot of white rabbit gun control on the left-wing base a little bit but in Texas when you went over moderates and independence right so I'm sure more people he needed in the election then then he game so it wasn't even smart politics. It where it was bad humanity and and political incompetence to do something like that and to show the nonqualified oolitic out of public office. Don't capture and market to bring to the politics of this is so tapped in now that's a big push to abandon what they call assault rifles, but the new ATF nominee is not doing so assault rifle as he refuses to define it and is going to raise the age to 21 they can look to do that nationally, and of universal background checks. You see anything getting done or what should be done what what what what should be done not take away gun rights what should be done. Bipartisan agreement on red flag laws.

To encrypt or increase reporting and make sure that the people that are if they are mental health problem and people knew to know about this guy, this guy come out of nowhere is there. There, people were aware that the sky was having mental health problems of family obviously had to be so you should do red flag laws also submit something that we should all be able to agree on which is heartening school. There should be united again how much it would've beat.

What is the TSA budget for heartening airport. It is the hardening our school credit could be a fraction of that and that we should we should be trying to find things that we can all agree on that would actually have an impact on on stopping the shootings as opposed to going into our corners and and fighting and getting nothing done so yet solicit will see what happens on this. I know that after 40 shooting the Republican governor did raise the age of 21. The last two shoes did get it at 18 and Elise of the Buffalo shooter case, there should've been a red flag on this clown who sat there for hours with the state police because he threatened to kill people in the school and kill himself. So we'll see where that goes, the better I want for you to two of the topics this baby formula situation is so avoidable. Robert Caleb testified he's a new FDA commissioner. This guy just got named in it and approve the other day in a year and 1/2 later in the middle of a pandemic is such an emergency. He could even name and FDA director. Here's a little about what he said is the reason why we are down 45% of capacity for baby formula 20 rooms that were failing on decisions that could've been better, and that those findings will be made public on the question about but there'll also be a review of the entire food program, which is vast and includes things that you all have discussed, including chemicals and nutrition yeah chemicals and nutrition him again said Robert. Robert Caleb says in December they got the whistleblower. Why was delayed got caught in the mailroom whistleblower letter and then if I looked at and got down there they realize it is a messy epilepsy coasted. It's amazing to be Martha. Nobody said if we close this is 40% of our baby formula production. We can't make it at home. We have to inform the White House US commerce of our US agriculture. It's amazing that nobody thinks beyond their little tunnel of responsibility now and that and that we do about this in December and did nothing about it until we get people there was no baby formula on the shelves and people west of the year not doing anything about it. The other thing is uncertain of the great article on the front page of the Wall Street Journal this week about how the baby formula industry is the most regular one of the most regulated industries and am a country which means it is almost the it's it's a monopoly monopoly between a couple companies and end it was impossible to guess the market if you wanted baby formula so that they've intentionally through government regulation limited the number of companies that are that are producing baby formula minutes baby baby formula is basically cornstarch milk protein and nutrients and you know that we don't regulate baby food, which the doctors after 6 to 9 month of giving us or we don't really extreme peas to the point that is only like two or three manufactures in the entire country.

Why do we do that would baby winter. Maybe we could have some free-market competition get the government out of the way and let people baby formula in this country is not rocket science and Mark is a thing the president said he could.

He's not a mindreader. That's why in May. He's just realizing it's a problem that's that's another example of the terrible administration. Someone told him he forgot the other thing is if you know that is run between four companies that control the whole country. At the very least, if you die if you like American babies at least understand what this means if you shut down one lab with 40% of that overall production which means were begging France in Europe and the Netherlands for some of their baby formula for Mexico to buy the way and and caddis got plenty this a desperate situation. I know people just in the phone all day looking for baby formula. The other big story is the pleat to present Joe's yesterday to do to announce police reform because Republicans were standing in the way. Why would he not what I know is true in Ford's death anniversary within the understand the tone deafness of this presser of a lot of things to do all, the reason we don't have police reform momentum. Scott police reform bill that 90% agreement on that there don't really disagree with anything Tim Scott has and is believed one like to add things that they don't. What he doesn't agree to the police reform that could be done and Biden's executive actually foster federal law enforcement doesn't apply to law enforcement throughout the country. Jim Stockstill could've applied to one person across the country and he wanted to do something that was reasonable, but didn't. That didn't demonize the police but also had commonsense reforms we can we� Nothing wrong with it.

The Democrats wouldn't do it. Big big killed it before the election because they didn't want Pres. Trump to be able to sign it into law and claimed that he did something on police reports of the purposely killed it. Then and then Biden promised to work with Tim Scott and the Democrats wouldn't deal with it so you know that the only reason they don't have a police report bill that was signed in the long months ago, is because they refuse to work with Republican and want to give Republican credit for anything, Washington Post and on Fox News last question how bad, how tarnished is the president after Brian Kamps's triumphant victory as governor to please keep denomination in Georgia and Purdue barely registered didn't even get into a runoff in the present, firmly went behind him. He also lost the Secretary of State battle only with Herschel Walker is a present, severely injured there in terms of perception of power from 12 Trump 70 Congress and Republicans said didn't go for his candidate didn't didn't do it and he's getting about in all of you running up the score with a lot of uncontested races, but he's basically a candidate for getting about 25, 30, 32% of the vote.

So there's a lot of Republicans were not following his lead. They love him, but Georgia Republicans in particular were burned by by the by the losing to Democratic Senate seat which led to $1.9 trillion in spending which led to a 40 year inflation likely a bigger defeat for Joe Biden. Joe Biden was the one who said Jim Crow 2.0 you called were all Republican traders enemies of the country and all the rest to get that horrible speech in Atlanta.

That's been completely repudiated because it was voter suppression voter suppression when we have free time. The African-American overall primary boat simple the African-American vote from four years ago in the primary big defeat for Joe Biden bigger than Perdomo from school places it took to stand on the president's urging, hurting the people in order to get our all started back to Mark. Thanks so much, you got it we come back will take some calls and Chris Russo roof will be with us. Big hour don't move Branko Mitchell use that up. Thanks to Bryan's got a lot more to say.

Stay with Brian until made the fastest three hours in radio with Brian until made a welcome back everybody just a quick follow-up to talk about it is not one is calm somebody down to knock your head off. Now you going to say national database for cops. If there screw up in Orlando you want him showing up in Washington state. I know I'm pretty sure that most cops look at background checks wherever you go in any job they look in your background, I mean restaurant judge might be a little different for career jobs.

I'm pretty sure the running that are ready to me these are all insulting little moves as if cops are the issue when you know the stats reveal that the people to pay the price. Over the last two years because of the George Floyd murder waterbed that is bad policing, but the George Floyd as a person is nobody look up to look at his track record. I mean look at his police record the talented guy had. But now the fact is that you cut attacking cops diminishing the force the funding them. In many cases including right here in New York City by millions of dollars.

You hurt the morale. This is an insult. This national police plant 11 no impact except to try to placate part of society that you think you're losing and that's why the black America.

This is the brain from the talkshow that's getting you your with Brian kill me if you now know that is the grandfather of the killer.

The 18-year-old shooter this mutant barbarian. The thought he would target eight and 10-year-old and did killed 19 to teachers wounded 17 as many as 17 or the hospital most respected survive. Many of them got out what makes these last two shooters. In particular, this 18-year-old in Buffalo, a plot and plan and announce and also be spotted earlier that he was sure bizarre behavior going up bottom plan to kill as many people as possible in Buffalo and then of course this terrible person in Texas who killed the elementary school kids in Uvalde what is happening to our youth is that they did to do with what were seeing in our schools and we didn't see for the last two years and that's kids in the classroom here to speculate with us to somebody's been at the forefront of finding out what is happening in our schools and our businesses. Chris of Rufo Senior fellow of Manhattan Institute was really impactful journalist Chris welcome back Chris. When people start looking at what's going on with these last two shooters in particular should we also look at what's going on in the schools yeah I think so and I think we should really take that back and look at exactly what happening with our culture and with any of really any measurement you have young people a special young boy, suicide, violence, drug abuse, depression and anxiety, severe mental illness. These are all friends that are going in very much the wrong direction and you have a generation of that is totally disconnected from the grounding in the fusions of family, community of faith community connections that keep people within the bounds of sanity and so you have these two horrific examples of kids who have been just totally disconnected from society to the point where they think that it is good thing to do, indiscriminately kill other human being within our culture people not just that the practical legal or policy levers that we can do to keep people say what happened to the generation of young people where they feel like this is not only okay but they feel like it's their only avenue to pursue the details of the suit is clearly deranged with their not out of their minds and not where they they plot and plan they know what to drive the Noida use a gun that they know how to work social media so they may be diabolical and sinister, but they're not ill they're not out of their minds to the point where they can't somehow function in society.

And that's what you been exposing to what's been happening with these school systems with CRT and with these companies in this whole deal.

You know I'll pick my own pronoun attitude. I know where this stuff came from and you're starting to unmask it. I would not be surprised if these two worlds meet direct connection and just make a broader observation that are public and to petition the special public schools are promoting a vision of the country of society of human nature that only nihilistic pessimistic vision of a negative vision vision that really doesn't connect to with a sense of the deeper meanings in life and so when you compare the fusions that are transmitting those kind of values with private institution, particularly the family and the kinship relationships that have been shattered and the one thing that you see over and over. When you go back into the history of mass shooter school shooter there almost always lacking a father. They almost always come from abusive or destructive models and of course, not all people who grew up in those conditions become shooters. Not one to one causal relationship, something that I think is profoundly important and if we want to stop this kind of violence, whether a school shooting gang style shootings in American we have to look at those key relationships that been destroyed. I don't think human beings are different now than they were years ago or 100 years ago by nature that our culture has changed in our culture is in a very precarious, very scary and very dangerous position right now, so that also makes a lot of the Mars monologues of all things that devoid of class to use the lately I found really intriguing seems to be logical, not political. Listen to what he said about what's going on this whole pronoun push cup 49. Something about the human race is changing at a previously unprecedented rate. We have to at least discuss it broken down over time, the LGBT population of America seems to be roughly doubling every generation.

According to a recent Gallup poll, less than 1% of Americans born before 1946 that's Joe Biden's generation identify that way.

2.6% of boomers do 4.2% of Gen X 10.5% of millennial's and 20.8% of Genji which means if we follow this trajectory we will all be gay and 25 you also in on the top of this pronoun thing and that is in will is on the both coasts.

It seems to be about every dinner party talks about how their kids transitioning but it's not happening in the Midwest.

Why is that there something in the water, something certainly that is a cultural element, and perhaps an element of social contagion and I was recently reporting a story in New York City and the mother child transitioning from one gender to the other.

I was very concerned about it. She confided in me that that actually on her block and even apartment building. There are three or four families within the stone each other that all have kids around the same age, and early teenage years. Adolescent years that are all transitioning and so something that appears to be hiked out that a lot of the community. It also kids who are struggling with. Maybe self image or body image or or sexual identity relationships in school to tap into a community that will immediately affirm them and give them a I think a lot of the things that fortunately are connected where you have young people who are not being served by adult they're not being served by an fusions are not being served by strong family seeking to find kind of solution to whatever pain and anxiety that their feeling, even in my rural community in small town community in Washington during a rough spot and we need to have a 350� conversation in the country about how we can get back connected with the main stream decide I want you to cut 52 yes part of the rise in LGBT numbers is from people's feelings free enough to tell it to a pollster and that's all to the good.

Some of it is it's trending this equals man okay boomer remember the prime directive of every team is anything to shock and challenge the squares who brought you up if you haven't noticed that with kids doing something for the likes is more important in their own genitals. You haven't been paying attention. Dr. Eric Anderson is a prominent 71-year-old clinical psychologist who is herself transgender and who now says I think it's gone too far. The Los Angeles Times summarizes she's come to believe that some children identifying test trends are falling under the influence of their peers and social media.

If you attend a small dinner party of typically very liberal upper income Angelenos. It is not uncommon to hear parents who each have a trans kid having a conversation about that. What are the odds of that happening in Youngstown, Ohio.

If this spike in trans children is all natural.

Why is it regional either Ohio or shaming them or California is creating if we can admit that in certain enclaves. There is some level of trendiness to the idea of being anything other than straight, then this is not a serious science-based discussion. It's a blow being struck in the culture wars using children as cannon fodder. I don't understand parents who won't let their nine-year-old walked to the corner without a helmet, and EpiPen and a GPS tracker and God from their lips touched dairy hormone blockers and genital surgery fine talk about another allergy would you say that Rikers changes spot on and I think it strikes at the heart of progressive orthodoxy in the big city living in DC and Los Angeles.

You have people that have this kind of purity so you have to have the pure pure organic consumable product and yet they're willing to dive headfirst into taking drugs that were invented for chemical castration and giving them to prepubescent children, totally insane, but you have to think of it, what is the thing that motivating them trend transgender has become an elite that even when I was at my kitten. I some of the kids have been going through this process and you can help parents and tell parents really believed that they wanted it were excited about it gave them a meaning that in those were the kids that were starting to be transition even kindergarten from one gender to the enactment so you have to look at the cultural incentives of these places and in most American people who are in the middle class suburban typical part of the country have to figure out how to protect against it because of what happened in the lead America starts to bleed over into the rest of the country. And lastly, we see what happened in Georgia. Jim Crow two point know all white people try to stop black people from voting. Joe Biden is this is a bull Connor's come back to life to the blatant racist segregationists and then you see how everybody voted how much voting in the primary.

When most people don't care to midterm the shut. The. The show at the show at the polls was overwhelming for both parties and all that the groups what he said to tell you very simply that the laptop to protect the country is forever stuck in 1953. The narrative that they bought into the narrative that gives movement of their politics, and so there pretending like the country haven't made any progress in the pre-civil rights era. It's patently false. It's been all over protected voting pattern in Georgia where, in which everyone has a very easy access.

Develop secure weight about supported by vast majorities of the public really shows the lie in the narrative. It shows that our country is moving toward a system of prenatal care and secure elections. And that's something that I want to tell you I do not match signatures is that so impressive. Most people want you to bring your ID of all ethnic backgrounds and lastly Chris.please into what you biggest impact would be arguably and that's what happened with Disney by exposing disease agenda having them come out blatantly against the parental rights bill and mislabeling it the don't say gay bill by bringing that forward in government Santa sticking up it stops what happened in Georgia. Corporations jumped on jumped out of that state, including major league baseball Delta threatened to leave, and all these other sub major corporations. Because of George's Jim Crow 2.0 bill which was mislabeled but in Florida it stopped and Disney still paying the price.

Do you think that's going to allow companies to legitimately put up their hands and say keep me out of this because it's not good for the stock price and says thing I have to do it happening all around the country are discussed with each other how to avoid becoming and what we did do my investigative reporting for the greatest leadership of Gov. my work with on the campaign. What we did is we took the favorability rating from 77% last year 33% turnout.

Which of the children's entertainment company is less popular than Joe Biden, and less popular than Trump's.

After the company and now all these corporations are figuring out how to take strong leadership think someone like Gov. defendant put a price on it and I think we developed a model for conservatives moving forward you your allowing these seals to do problem with their instinct told them they should do and say I don't want any part of this and you not to force me to do it. I don't care how woke my employees are and Netflix stood up and said the same thing to their people. I don't think there any less left. I think there being more business centric and that's what we should be getting back to risk a great work as usual your indefatigable Christopher Rufo. Thank you so much you got it we come back all to finish up some calls and some final thoughts on this hour of the brain to meet you challenging conventional thought and wisdom with Brian kill me. He is so busy he'll make dear, we are back couple things I really brought up police reform yeah that's got to be a part of it and I also think when you talk about the number one story is the ugly story you've all the shooting in Texas and you know I'm not sure the story went that there was another story. In Texas, about 3 miles away, that they were able to stop a would-be attacker to guys and they have evidently had AR 15's so were looking into that team that I can follow up. The other big story was Tuesday, not only because I went to was on assignment for Fox nation but Tuesday in many ways art is quite intriguing. Number one, we found out. This can be recounted Pennsylvania so it looks like Dr. has got about thousand vote lead and now they're pushing did Dave McCormick is pushing to count envelopes without dates on them.

That is huge problem because the minute you do that when Dr. Oz probably can win anyway. It's going to happen very, really, to recounts reveal something turnover elections. Obviously, look at past. Look at past recounts, but number two is now lives in every precedent in the pre-problem. Republicans have a Democrats is that the inefficiency of mailing voting. That's what they say show up the same day because he inefficiency. One of the things is dating. When did this come in and what exactly is the cut off and then why can't you come in time.

And did you fill out the did you fill at the ballot right so that they were courses on account everything that's a little bit of a problem number two. I think Donald Trump is a huge mistake. I knew the second he did it by not only alienating Georgia voters on the runoff election of put Warnock and Aust off into power.

But then he comes back and has center Purdue who failed because he was lazy to get the Senate seat again if you want to give go to debate and he begs him to governor. He has no message.

Nope, no campaign, he was by 40 points makes trouble terrible and Herschel Walker. As promising as he can be in as bright as he is.

He has not shown me yet he is went out of his way to study the issues. I feel real bad for George B Bush I think is the light years better than the current attorney general and will never be tarnished in scandal is Molly Hemingway on what's going on with the whole Jim Crow 2.0 in the election reform cut 38 Jim Crow was a real thing our country suffered through where the Democrat party is basically disenfranchised an entire race of people.

It was very difficult to get rid of those laws and so slurry really stings the people who wanted to pass election integrity said that it was very unfair that was horrible thing to say that they simply wanted to make it easy for people to vote difficult for them to cheat today slightly streamlined. Some things they made some improvements. They develop some consistencies. They made it so that you have to show a photo ID in order to vote and the proof is in the pudding. There was this primary yesterday. Voter turnout is way up across all categories including in the Democrat party. This was a horrible lie and people should have been held accountable.

Yeah, that's what Chris Rufo they weren't in the Army� Check signatures and limited number drop boxes before the last election was zero drop boxes and insult the same minority communities cake I got away to vote when they basically given 6/7 days months ahead of time to vote right over 100 meteorologists and the worldwide resources a fox in your box, whether podcast precise personal powerful subscriber Melissa Malik Fox is not just.com or wherever you did your
