Biden Caught Using a Cheat Sheet at Press Conference

From high atop Fox News headquarters in New York City, always seeking solutions, never sowing division. It's Brian Kilmead. Hi, everyone. Welcome to the latest moments of the Brian Kill Me Chow.

So glad you're here.

So glad you're watching Fox and Friends and watching perhaps 8 o'clock at night. This hour, we're going to be joined by Senator Bill Cassidy. How did he get a Grammy? You're going to love that story. And Senator Joe Lieberman, if you want a Democrat, That can care about the country first and has a lifetime of experience in foreign affairs.

As well as domestic policy, it is Senator Joe Liebman. You know, he's the one who came up with the idea of a Homeland Security division, Department, and It was well intended. I think it's gotten way too big, but it was his idea.

So he's going to be with us shortly. Is this the Joe Lee? Is this the Joe Biden that he used to travel with? Let's get to the big three.

Now, with the stories you need to know, it's Brian's big three. Number three. I don't think the suit has merit. They really went so headstrong into trying to get the sexualization of the curriculum into the elementary schools. We don't think that that's appropriate in Florida.

Parents, they want kids to be kids and they want to focus on the basics of academics. That is Ron DeSantis, not from an old press conference, but from hours ago in Israel. This guy is ready for the major leagues, internationally and domestically. He took questions from everywhere. I know you weren't up.

I was at 4 o'clock in the morning.

So you're going to love these excerpts from these questions. Anything but easy. None of it was scripted. And now it's DeSantis versus Disney. Iger sues Ron.

Ron responds: why this is bigger than these two men, this state and this corporation, why I think DeSantis already won for all of us. Number two. I discovered that children are being trafficked.

Some sponsors view children as commodities and assets to be used for earning income. This is why we are witnessing an explosion of labor trafficking. Tara Lee Rhodes. Talking about what she sees at the border exposed. The Biden-broken border is responsible for massive pain and suffering in America.

Amongst the many illegals, hundreds of thousands are unaccompanied minors. 85,000 are missing. The pain was on display in hearings on Wednesday. You work, you missed it, we didn't. We will expose the death, destruction, and dereliction of duty.

Number one. A photographer in the White House Press Corps got a picture of the President's placard in his hand. The name, outlet, and question from that LA Times reporter. The question that she actually asked the President was quite a bit more elaborate, but Biden certainly got a heads up on the topic and the general thrust of her question. Yeah, the question's almost verbatim.

Jackie Heinrich saw it, reported it, and now you know it. Taking stage. Taking shape. The president's limitations are clear, but his party has the machine ready to grind down all comers. And Republicans want to make it clear: it's not all about Trump.

Even though he may be leading now, we are still in spring training. That's my analogy. And let's talk about it. Last night I had Tim Scott on the 8 o'clock show and had a chance just to talk to Marco Rubio, too. This week, also, we talked to Asa Hutchinson on Fox and Friends a short time ago.

Might want to pan the camera down. We're on Fox Nation, I should remind you.

So the President of the United States answered a couple of questions. In a press conference setting. This should not be a rarity, but it is with him because obviously his staff knows what you've seen. He's not performing well, and they don't want to put him in unscripted situations. And when he is, they script it.

No question. They script the questions. How do we know? You just heard Jackie Heinrich report. They have a picture of the LA Times reporter and name.

Okay, that's fine. With it, the topic.

Okay, that's unusual. You gave the topic.

Okay.

Sometimes they want to get on top of things so you don't have to say, I'll look that up. Foreign policy, domestic, want to find out what's going on at the border. That's it. You don't say, when they ask you, well, what about the borders? Listen.

I'll ask the question. And if they drill down at it, you just got to tell them no. I mean, I dealt with this before with a music situation. Of all things. They said, We don't want, we need to know what you're going to ask.

He said, I'll give you general. We just had to, okay, you're not going to tell me your questions? Just don't ask this. I said, I got to ask that. That's a major story.

And then we didn't do the interview.

So in the LA Times, this reporter gave the question. They had it verbatim. She asked it almost exactly like it was on the card. That should disturb you as an American. We all know there's a compliant press to a degree that leans way left, we understand.

But the fact is, the president's got to get the question ahead of time is nuts. Here is the question. Cut to.

Now we're going to take some questions. The first question is from Courtney of the Los Angeles Times. Thank you, Mr. President. Your top economic priority has been to build up U.

S. domestic manufacturing in competition with China. But your rules against expanding chip manufacturing in China is hurting South Korean companies that rely heavily on Beijing. Are you damaging a key ally in the competition with China? To help your domestic politics ahead of the election, he knew the answer, and his ally was South Korea right there.

And you would need to be prepped for that, I imagine. I mean, not like Ron DeSantis or Barack Obama, you know, because he's doing policy every day. He might not like the answer, but they'd be able to answer it. George W. Bush would be able to answer it.

You might not like the answer. Donald Trump used to walk up and down the line: go, go, go, go. And you know, every question was about Mueller or something about Jared being arrested. Nothing about the policy Abraham Accords. But he just said, go ahead, throw them at me.

I was I'm used to that.

So, don't think it's I'm putting down anybody's age. It's nothing to do with that. You have to be able to do the job. Tim Scott could do the job. I don't know if he'll get the opportunity in this cycle, but he's about, he has an exploratory committee.

He's probably two weeks away from declaring. He almost told me last night that he's in. But in response to seeing what we saw this afternoon, here's what he said, cut three. In 2024, the White House will be in control by the Republican Party. The Great Opportunity Party will win in 2024, without any question.

We cannot take two more years of this presidency, much less six years. That is something we can't stomach in America. I'm doing everything in my power to listen to the American people, to understand their issues, to make sure that a principle-centered campaign that's really cloaked in the positivity that we've seen over the last decade from me, as well as an optimistic view of the future, it has to be anchored in conservatism, though. Our policy positions are strong. I believe that getting in this race is indicative of the fact that our campaign will win and be President Biden.

The enemy for the American people is the left.

So Tim Scott would have no problem supporting a nominee if it's not him. I don't think anybody else besides President Trump would have a problem. I'm not saying he wouldn't, but if he gets beat, it's going to be a close. That's no question. It's got to be close.

And would he. Would he take a primary loss in a major state that he simply had to have? Or would he say it's been stolen by another Republican in a primary? I'm very curious. But making it clear yesterday, I don't know, did you have a chance to pollute Allison, the soundbite of John Castamatidis talking to?

It's on there.

So he made it clear yesterday when he put on Truth Social that there's an excellent chance that Donald Trump will not debate. He doesn't feel as though he has to. Looking at the polls right now, Fox had a poll released yesterday. Donald Trump has 53% of the vote among Republicans, primary voters. In March, it was at 54%.

In February, it was at 43%. Ron DeSantis was at 28% in February.

Now he's at 21, but he hasn't declared yet. And there's a lot of hit pieces on it. Uh Mike Pence had six Had six in March Had seven in February. Nikki Haley at four, three, had seven after she launched. Vivek is hanging in there.

He went from zero NA. Nobody knew who the heck he was to 1% in March.

Now he's at 3%. Wiz Cheney's got 2%, and Tim Scott's at 2%.

So here's what Donald Trump said: looking at all the polls when it comes to the debates, that the first one will be in August. There was word that you may not do a Republican debate. Is that true?

Well, I'm leading by forty points. And a lot of people say, why would you do a debate when you have people at two and three and fifteen and fourteen? And DeSanctus is coming way down, and he's he's really showed us up. I guess that's where it ended. That is way down.

Sanctus, did you think he intentionally mispronounced that? Yes. I thought so. When we come back, I'm going to talk to Bill Cassidy about that. President's got a point.

You know, he almost feels like an incumbent. He didn't debate last time. He had no opponents, legitimate opponents. And Joe Biden's not debating.

So that's who he's going to look to do. But I actually think that he's out there to sharpen himself. I would go do the debate. I'd go out and do it. And it's a way to unite people around you rather than saying I'm above you and other people saying he wouldn't debate me.

I think it's going to be in a tough spot. I think predominantly, I think he's working the refs to get the best scene possible and to possibly let everybody know who he wants as a moderator. Brian Kilmeicho, a lot to discuss.

It's Brian Killmeade. I can't even say, I guess, how old I am. I can't even say the number. It doesn't register with me. And uh but the only thing I can say is that Um One of the things that people are going to find out is going to see a race.

And they're going to judge whether or not I have it or don't have it. I respect them taking a hard look at it. I take a hard look at it as well. I took a hard look at it before I decided to run. And I feel good, I feel excited about the prospects.

And I think we're on the verge of really turning the corner in a way we haven't in a long time. I don't know what country he's looking at, and maybe Democrats agree with that, but not according to the polls. His approval rating, 41% cumulatively. Reuters says 38%. 27% of people want him to run again, but he's doing it anyway.

And age is just a number, depending on who you are. Senator Bill Cassidy is also a doctor joined us now, and he actually is a Grammy Award-winning doctor. And Senator, Senator, welcome. Hey, Brian, thanks for having me, man. Who would ever think?

Bill Cassidy Grammar Award? Wouldn't have thought that would be in the same situation. I want everyone to understand this story because we have so much to go over. Senator, you found out about this young group of female musicians in Afghanistan, and you got them out of the country where their life would have been over or destroyed. And what happened?

Yeah, so there's a a visionary man who had started a school in Kabul teaching young people how to play classical music. And among them were about 200 something young women.

Now we can imagine when the Taliban took back over that those young women would have been punished, they would have been maybe forcibly married, and no matter what their age, they would have soon been pregnant, locked up in their homes. Playing secular music under the Taliban could be a death sentence. We heard about this. We worked with other people. The Qataris served as a go-between between the U.S.

government and the Taliban. The Portuguese agreed to accept the women and give them visas and to allow them to stay there, continue their education. And we worked it through. We didn't get them out before the fall because there was a bomb that went off, that bomber, that ISIS bomber that went off, shut down the gates. But after that point, we're able to get them out, and now they're continuing their studies in Portugal.

And you end up getting a Grammy for your efforts? You know, because the Grammys, they're not just about the musician, but they're about the um the support for music. And and for me, I'm from New Louisiana. I mean, New Orleans Great musical tradition. Arcadiana, great musical tradition.

Shreveport. They used to have what they call the Louisiana Hayride, our version of the Grand Ole Opry. A great tradition. I understand the importance of music for expression, for bringing people together, frankly, for economic development. But for these young women, it is more than that.

They are a beacon of hope to everyone still stuck in Afghanistan. This is what it can be like. We just need to get rid of the Taliban. I know, Senator, and this is what I said. I admit I didn't fight over there, but by keeping a small contingent of people, we would have given these people an additional time to become more part of a Western society, not a Western culture society, an opportunity to do this thing called learning, reading.

Writing. having interests like they have interests. That happened because we were there. And now the Taliban's back, and they're going to bring him back to the Stone Age. But on this accomplishment, Pharrell weighed in.

Listen. I'd like to also congratulate Senator Schumer and Senator Cassidy for their recognition tonight. I mean, the work that those gentlemen have done and continue to do is just It's unmatched and um We certainly need it. That's pretty cool. Congratulations on doing that.

That's pretty much why you got in the business. You could have just been a doctor. You just said, that's what doing your job is for you: it's service. It absolutely is. And by the way, every one of us, Brian, is called to make a difference.

You make a difference. you make a difference and you encourage others to make a difference, and that's how our country is so great. Our country is not great because of the government. My gosh, anything but. It's great because of the American people.

And you and I have the privilege to be among that troop. Absolutely, thank you.

So I want to talk about real quick on the President's same four more years, the tape he put out, his finding out that he had to have his questions ahead of time verbatim from a reporter. What does it say to you as a medical doctor? I mean, to me, it's so clear he is not up for this job, yet he wants to do it for six more years. I'm going to speak like a doctor, not about Joe Biden. You can decide what you want.

But everybody, you know, you can kind of break your life down into decades. You know, you're born 10 years later, big difference. You're 10 years old, you're 20, big difference.

Somewhere around your 30s to your 60s, 70s, your body kind of breaks down a little bit, but your mind gets a little bit sharper, at least a little bit more experienced. and somewhere around seventy five to eighty. you begin a period of decline.

Now now so think of think about uh you know uh uh mountain. You just begin that down slope. And that when that slope downward begin when that downward slope begins, You can mark it over ten years. It's going to get worse and worse.

So if someone is not the same that they were, If someone is not the same that they were, Six years ago. And they're eighty years old. They've begun that process of decline. And it's not going to get better. It's going to get worse.

Senator, I just can't believe that there's not another Democrat who says it's my turn. I mean, Republicans would be out there. Are you kidding? Barack Obama didn't wait. Barack Obama said, hey, yeah, I don't care if it's Hillary's turn.

I'm running. Why where's it? Does anyone feel as though they could do the job better? You're supposed to be for the country. You know, Democrats have to sort things out.

Republicans have to sort their things out. It's just an observation. What's your thought? What am I missing? I'm agreeing with you.

You've got to know that there is a power establishment behind President Biden that is squeezing everybody else out, whether it is the major donors, whether it is just kind of the people in the Democratic National Committee, but they're trying to squeeze other people out. It may be because they think that the natural heir apparent is Kamala Harris. And Carla Harris probably would lose. Uh but I don't know that. Uh they got other people over there that are, you know, I think would have a broader appeal to the electorate, not to me, but to the electorate.

So um um but I think that there's a lot of forces in play here beyond the President's I've been impressed with President Trump's team that he put together. Got a minute left. I'm just wondering if he. Oh, he just dropped off. All right.

We only got about a minute left anyway, right? I want you to hear uh this. What I really wanted to bump in with, it's a 10-second bite from Tim Scott. He said this to me last night. I asked him, Do you think Donald Trump can win?

Because people like Trey Gowdy, Chris Inunu, said he can win the nomination, but he can't win the general. Here's what Tim Scott said: cut for.

Well, more importantly, I know that I can beat Joe Biden. That is the issue on the table. If I get in this race and I hope to have a decision before the end of May, I believe that we beat Joe Biden, period.

So, Tim Scott, he believes he can win. Center, we only have 25 seconds left, but do you have a pick that you want to see win the nomination? No, but I think, just being blunt, I think that the reason they want Trump to win our nomination is they think Trump's the only one they can beat. But that's just my Senator Bill Cassidy, thanks so much. Joe Lieberman next.

A photographer in the White House press corps got a picture of the president's placard in his hand, the name, outlet, and question from that LA Times reporter, the question that she actually. Asked the President was quite a bit more elaborate, but Biden certainly got a heads up on the topic and the general thrust of her question. It was almost verbatim. Jackie was being kind. I've never seen anything quite like it.

Especially if you're considering the predecessor, nobody ever gave him a heads up, although he probably knew it was going to be about the Mueller report or about how great Anthony Fauci is and how he's screwing up the pandemic. Joe Lieberman joins us now, one of our fav one of America's favorite guests. Former U.S. Senator from Connecticut, Vice Presidential candidate, co-chair of the Bipartisan Commission on Biodefense, Chairman of the United Against Nuclear Iran, and author of The Century Solution: How We Make Government Work. And how we can make it work again.

Senator, welcome back. Hey, Brian, thank you. You're one of my favorites, and I would say America's favorites, too.

Well, you're way too nice, but I'll tell you, I learned more foreign policy from you, John McCain, Lindsey Graham, because you guys go out and see it. You don't say, well, this seems to be the way they're debating it at War College, and this seems to be where it goes at the Foreign Affairs Council. You go and meet the players over the last 30, 40 years, and I know Joe Biden was part of the posse for a long time, and I know he's your friend, and I know he's from your party, but I cannot help but notice the decline that I'm seeing. And I just worry about the country over the next six years if he's to win reelection. You like him and you you love the country.

What do you think? Huh. First off.

Well, I just in passing want to say. You're absolutely right about John McCada, Lizzie Graham, and me. Dave Petraeus. General Petraeus, after about our seventh or eighth visit to him in Afghanistan or Iraq. Dubbed us the three amigos.

I mean, we just decided we're being we got a responsibility as senators to make. important national policy. You can't do it in your office back in Washington alone or talking to the Washington think tankers. You got to go out. And we did.

And we learned a lot. And I'll tell you what else happened, which doesn't happen enough. in uh Washington today. You know, you travel for hours on a plane, you talk to each other, you laugh with each other and you become friends and you trust each other. And so even if you disagree on s still work together.

But on on Biden, um, look, uh uh he's eighty one and uh He's not the same as he was at 61. Almost nobody is. In my opinion, d does he have it all together now, mentally? I think so. I don't see him a lot.

I watch him publicly like you do on the T V and radio, etc. Uh but uh there's no question his age is gonna be Maybe the biggest question. uh challenging him uh in the campaign and uh only he can Deal with it. And Brian, as you know, it's not just a question of whether people reach a judgment that is capable of being. President of the United States today, but w how how will he be Uh three years from now or our Basically, let's go two thousand eight when he's eighty Six.

And those are anyway, we've never had this experience in America before. Obviously, w um people are living longer and better, but still it's a It's a challenge, and people are going to be watching him closely. And he's got to deal with it. He can't hide from it. He's got to deal with it.

To me, it's the big. I mean, there are obviously policy questions that people disagree with them on, but I think ultimately the big challenge to his candidacy is his age. I think you're right. And the thing is too, and I'll give you an example. When I talk to you, you maybe you'll tell me that you can only do an eight hour day instead of a twelve hour day.

What's the big deal? Or maybe you need an extra day off where you didn't have to. I understand it. I look at Bernie Sanders the same way. And I don't you know, he's older, but he's still He's still Bernie Sanders.

Do I think he'd be a great president? I think he'd kill us, kill the country, right? But but would you would Senator, if right now I told you to hold the press conference, would you need the questions verbatim ahead of time? No, I mean, it would be nice, but I never had that wonderful experience.

So, you know, I've lived with this for so long, and I must say Uh it's not quite like the bucks are responding to the bell and wanting to go back into the ring. But you know, once you follow all this for all those years, Even though I don't have access anymore since I left the set of the classified material, I just am hungry for it. I read about it all the time and I think about it.

So and I learned, I was trained. It wasn't easy at first. That if you're going to be an elected official, you got to be out there and ready to take the questions from the media and public, but also. You know, you're going to be campaigning and people are going to stop you and ask you this or that. You better be ready to answer in a way that's.

That's honest and informed. Yeah, he's just not doing the press conferences. He's not doing those sit-downs with ABC, CBS, Fox, anybody. And then people would say this: one of w like the magic bullet would be saying, Look, here's my 45-year-old Teddy Roosevelt. In case something happens, McKinley had Roosevelt.

You know, you had George H.W. Bush. Nobody thought he was not qualified to be president should something happen to Reagan. Here's what Ted Cruz said, because he worked with Kamala Harris, about the vice president, cut eight. Can you imagine Kamala sitting across from Putin?

Can you imagine Kamala sitting across from Xi? And when they stand up and bully America, which is what they do, can you imagine her just cackling ineffectively and weirdly and creepily? It really is amazing. Joe Biden's popularity is in the low forties. Kamala Harris's pop popularity is in the thirties.

Even Democrats are embarrassed of the job she's done. And there's a reason why the Biden White House stuck Kamala in a bunch of those images with Biden. They're trying to rehabilitate all of the damage she's done to herself. The center she has not afforded herself strongly. And we watched her with the Polish press conference and she's giggling through it, didn't go to the front lines and where the refugees were crossing.

Her instincts aren't strong. And not many Americans. Feel good about her in the number two slot, and you can't move her out as the first woman of color as vice president politically.

So what are we to do? Yeah, no, I agree with you. I don't think you can, but you can't. Running mates, although there will be people. Um uh urging him to do that, but uh it's not his nature and it's pretty hard to do.

For, in this case, with an African-American woman, even though he could replace her with somebody else. You know, I never served with her. She came into the Senate after I left it. I've met her a few times. I saw her just this last February in Munich at the Munich Security Conference.

You know, she gave a good speech, but she hasn't. Look, I talked about President Biden's age. Is a big test for him. The the sub A test to that, and it's a big one. If you start to think about, unfortunately, as people will, will the president be okay?

uh and uh after after two, three, four more years, In the White House. If not, she's the one, the Vice President, of course. will have the responsibility. I mean, God forbid if he doesn't live, but if he If it's not well and Uh sh uh No, another great test and and the Republicans uh whoever uh presumably President Trump will be the Republican nominee. It's awkward, but they will find a way.

And if anybody Well uh it's uh President Trump. uh to uh raise the question about Vice President Harris's Capacity to be president. And this is the great challenge for her. I mean, she had a wonderful reputation as Attorney General of California. And uh uh she came into the Vice Presidency and the Senate with that and then the Vice Presidency.

But She hasn't gained the the confidence of people. And that's the test for her as she they she's got to be out there. In the in the next couple of years. Uh but uh to try to reassure people That she's ready to be president. I remember when Al Gore asked me to run.

With him Um, you know, he said, Look, after he decided he wanted me to be his running mate, you and I think alike in a lot of things, not everything. We trust each other, but the main thing that I've got to be able to convince the American people is that should I not be able to continue in this job, you could do it. And, you know, God bless him. And I'm I was grateful he decided I was. That's the test.

Brandon Vice President. And I just say this: you know what? I don't care. You can make a mistake. I got it.

I do it. But you cannot hustle. There's no excuse for not hustling. And you get down to the border, you grab that jean shirt, and you set up camp. You grab, you get yourself a Ramada in room.

You say you're going to be taking it for at least a month. And you sit out there and you see and you watch, you observe. You know why? Because the president asked you to. The president also said, I want you to crack down on voting rights, whatever it means for a Democrat.

And she didn't do it. She just didn't do it. I never saw anything like it.

So, you know, you got to sort, you know, people got to sort out their team, but there's no excuse for not hustling. Making a bad decision, having a bad answer, freezing.

Okay, welcome to the human race. But not hustling, that's a decision. That's where I find it inexcusable. And I think you would have trouble tolerating it if you were the president. I want to move on just because you have so many areas of expertise.

One is Israel. Governor DeSantis is in Israel right now and gave a press conference at 4 in the morning, our time, at which time he talked about this, that the Democratic Party. Sympathizes in the latest poll. 53% sympathize with the Palestinians over the Israelis. Currently, for the first time ever since they've taken that poll, unlike the Republican Party.

Here's what DeSantis said about that Cut 49. America does really well when we have relationships with countries like Israel that doesn't get consumed in kind of the polarization of the political scene. And I think unfortunately, in the last five or ten years, Israel has become more politicized, where you have the left going one way, and I think the right and the center siding with Israel. And I think that that's unfortunate. The interests are very strong to have a good relationship between the two countries.

And I would like to think that that would be more important than some of the political currents. Look, the political currents come and go, but when you start talking about a lasting alliance, that's something that really matters for the security of both countries.

So that's what he's re referring to. You must have seen that poll and you must be worried as a Jewish American, this must worry you. Yeah, I mean, I worry about it as a Jewish American and as an American who who cares about our our security and knows that our our American security and knows that our relationship with Israel is critically important to them. to Israelis, but it's also important to us because look, in the end, Israel is our number one and most trustworthy. Ally in the in the Middle East.

With all the changes you see going on now with I mean, the Saudis are very important to us, but but now you watch China coming in and broken brokering some sort of They taunt between Saudi Arabia and Iran. That's very unsettling. But let let me go back to. American public opinion toward the U.S.-Israel relationship and Israel, I would say that in Congress among elected officials, Israel still enjoys bipartisan support, except on the left wing of the Democratic Party and really the far left wing, which has turned skeptical to downright negative. Against Israel.

But I tell you, Brian, I've seen a change. In uh the years, it's decades now that that uh I I've been involved in American politics and And the attitude of the two parties toward uh Israel. When I first got in, the Democratic Party was what I would call the reflexively pro-Israel party. The the Republicans were not anti-Israel, but In famous words of a former president or secretary of state, they sort of favored a balanced policy between Israel and the Arab world. Uh to date, over the years, for various reasons, Uh that's a a thwart.

And and you just have to speak the truth here. The the reflexive Pro-Israel Party Is the Republican At the grassroots level and the One that now is skeptical is the Democratic Party. I said to you a moment ago that the Democrats in Congress uh and the White House are still uh basically pro-Israel. But that poll that showed that rank and file Democrats now favor the p are more sympathetic, I think was the way the question was to the Palestinian side than the Israeli side is was a very alarming poll. It maybe it reflects the a a division in Israel right now over so-called judicial reform.

Proposals that the Netanyahu government puts up, but it's a bad sign, and anybody who cares about the US-Israel relationship has to really. Confront it and that that starts. With Israel, obviously, and it's leaders. But also with the Biden administration and Democratic leaders in Congress. But, Senator, you can't, but when you go back in and you do this and it drove you nuts, and you say, I want to reinvigorate that Iran nuclear deal, that undoes the spirit behind the Abraham Accords, who realize, who in going with Israel realized Iran's the problem.

Saudi Arabia says, okay, I'm isolated. I might as well make a deal with the devil, with Iran, who are hardly an ideal country, but one we've always dealt with in the past. And now there's the UAE is now setting up relations with Iran. Iran reinvigorated over into Syria. Turkey, we have no idea.

They're blowing with the wind. Our hands are totally off the Middle East, and we're watching it. And we're being critical of our one true ally in the Middle East. It's crazy. Final thought?

No, I I agree and you you're right that the Uh the the distrust and fear of uh Iran that uh Israel and the Arab world Share is a big part of why the Abraham Accords, which were historically transformational, were achieved. But if you keep talking about See, I think p part of what happens Is that the Arab countries began to wonder whether they could totally? Trust the US to be with them in a time of crisis. And that's true of the UAE, where I know the leadership was very upset. With the Biden administration, after they uh very people don't know about this much here, the terrorist attack.

on their big hotel. And they didn't hear from the administration for like three weeks. And the Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed was very angry about that. And Saudi Arabia is a power, and they're flexing their muscles. And they see a contest developing between us and China, kind of Cold War II.

And they're going to play both sides for their own benefit. I know, Senator, and unfortunately, we're against a break. But you know who went over there? Lindsey Graham himself to meet with Saudi Arabia. Because the State Department evidently is too busy.

And he had great meetings, so you know, God bless him. He should keep traveling. All right. And he's keeping you informed. That's great.

Senator, always great to have quality time. Senator Joe Lieberman, thank you. and have a great day. Back in a moment. Both sides, all opinions, It's Brian Kill Me.

From his mouth to your ears, it's Brian Killmead. Hey, just closing out that hour. I just love talking to Senator Joe Lieberman. He's so experienced. But please tell me, you know I could not have had that conversation with Joe Biden.

I'm telling you. I don't want to put him in an odd spot because they're friends, but they're the same age. That's why Joe Liebanz talks very deliberately. He's right on top of it. He says, I don't get the intelligence.

But I get all the information and I can't wait to read about it and be on top of it. And remember, he was a finalist. He might have been offered to become Secretary of Defense with Donald Trump. Not so much he trusted Trump, and how much he knew is like a different personality, like General Keene. General Keene knows he's different than us.

He never served in the military, doesn't travel as much as I do to get to know these players. But I could work for him. He would have been good as Secretary of Defense. That's what I think. Lucid the Brain, Kill Me Cho.

So glad you're here.

From the Fox News Radio Studios in Midtown Manhattan, it's the fastest growing radio talk show. Brian Kilmead. Hi, board. Welcome to the latest moments of the Brian Killmeat Show.

So glad you're here.

We come to you from 48th and 6 in Midtown Manhattan, heard around the country, around the world. Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry is going to be with us shortly. He's investigating into the financial organizations who are prioritizing climate change and ESG standards over the over. Making a profit for all of us. Can you imagine that?

You have a mutual fund, you're counting on your financial planner to do the best to maximize.

So you're picking out Vanguard or other things because you just want to be able to retire in a few years. And I'm not talking about the day trader, you don't need any advice. But for people who are don't do this for a living, you just assume that these the bloodthirsty Wall Streeters are going to do the most to maximize profits for all of us.

Well, it turns out they're doing things that are politically correct or so called better for the environment, which is always disputable. And that's why we need people now like Attorney Generals cracking down on this. What is your responsibility, you know, for us? You can't go out and take my money and do what the. What Sam Bankman Free did, correct?

But to a degree, a much lesser extent, these people aren't looking out for us either with our money.

So, who's looking after us?

Well, they're going to look at that. And also. I'm just stunned by there's this huge liquid gas opportunity in Wyoming. Red State, they want to do it, it burns clean. This administration just stopped it.

How does that work in our interest? Let's get to the big three.

Now, with the stories you need to know, it's Brian's big three. Number three. I don't think the suit has merit. They really went so headstrong into trying to get the sexualization of the curriculum into the elementary schools. We don't think that that's appropriate in Florida.

Parents, they want kids to be kids and they want to focus on the basics of academics. That is Ron DeSantis taking questions in Jerusalem about book banning and talk about the reality of it. And then he went into the details. He said, I grabbed a book from an elementary school library. I read it out loud, and all the networks had to cut away from it because it was so sexually explicit.

So, if it's not worthy of the 6 o'clock news, he said, why is it worthy in an elementary school library? That's not book banning. That's appropriate for your kids in Florida. That was leadership, and he was very comfortable in front of the world press. Number two.

I discovered that children are being trafficked.

Some sponsors view children as commodities and assets to be used for earning income. This is why we are witnessing an explosion of labour trafficking. I'm talking about hundreds of thousands of unaccompanied minors. I'm talking about 85,000 we have lost in our country. I hope they are alive.

These kids, in many cases, are working 12 hours a day, not in school, with no contact with their family, even their sponsor. That's Joe Biden's border policy. Number one. A photographer in the White House Press Corps got a picture of the President's placard in his hand. The name, outlet, and question from that LA Times reporter.

The question that she actually asked the president was quite a bit more elaborate, but Biden certainly got a heads up on the topic and the general thrust of her question. That is Jackie Heinrich pointing out that a photographer saw the card with the Los Angeles Times reporter on it, and the LA Times reporter with the question that was actually very close to the actual question. The press secretary is asking people not only the topic, which happens, but the question, specifically writing it down, so Joe Biden can prepare for it. It's an open book test. In a country that can't have an open book president.

Mark Thieton, former chief speechwriter for Bush, Fox News contributor, Washington Post columnist, a fellow at the AEI. Mark, welcome back. Good to be with you, Brian. Mark Premier inside the White House. I mean, George W.

Bush was in on all these major decisions. If you've got to go speak to the Iraqi leader, go talk to him. You've got to go talk about the economy. He understood it. Barack Obama, pretty much pretty eloquent on his feet.

Bill Clinton was a genius on his feet. I'm not talking about parties. Does a president ever get cards like that? Do you ever know exactly the question? Yeah.

They they always all the reporters always gave Bush the questions ahead of time. Same thing with Trump. All the time. It's unbelievable. Are you kidding me?

I mean, good Lord. And this is the thing that, like, so this is this is governmental control of the media because if what happened with the w if you've got a situation where so there's only two questions per leader right in this press conference And so they're g so they go to a bunch of reporters. And say, what do you want to ask the president? And then they're offering up their questions. to get picked, right?

And so that means the White House can not only choose the reporter, They can choose the question and the topic they want.

So I can't imagine that they would pick Peter Ducey's question. You would never submit. You would never submit it. You submitted. But the idea that you can actually, that the White House press editor can pick all the questions and then choose the reporters who get to ask the questions based on their submission and then pre-script the answers for the President, obviously, because you know the question in advance.

I mean, it's like you'd g you would get you would get kicked out of college for an honor code violation for this. But apparently there's no honor code in the White House, and so they can do whatever the hell they want. But it's embarrassing. It's embarrassing. You know, we always say we always use this term, compliant press.

Meanwhile, they're not going to print they're not going to ask a hunter question. Very rarely what it is, it makes news that you're asking real news questions. But this is a new level. How she feels about this. I mean, why did she submit her question?

Why do you what you know, this is you know, cheap if we're talking about the compliant press, let's talk to the compliant journalist. Why has any has anybody interviewed her and asked her, why did you cooperate with this system? Don't you do you have any credibility as a journalist after this? I understand they are blitzing the L.A. Times with calls and inquiries.

You can imagine. Donald Trump got 71 million votes. Yeah, he may not have got as many as he needs to win, but there's a lot of people who are skeptical and didn't vote for him. Kaylee McEnany used to do that job, cut nine. The idea that a presidential press conference, you would be given the questions in advance and be able to write down the first question and the exact question from the reporter, that is an inconceivable thought to me as a former press secretary.

I mean, do you think that they submitted to me, we want to ask Trump, you know, why are you evil? Of course they didn't submit that to me. But to Joe Biden, it's a different ballgame because the press, you're members of the administration. You might as well be at the Navy mess socializing with us back in the West Wing because you're not true members of the press if you're doing that. I I think we'd be in a lot of trouble if we did that.

I mean, if they if they found out we were doing that, it would be unbelievable. That's what I do in Russia. I mean, if you want to get called on by Putin, you're going to have to submit your question first. And I get I guarantee you is it's not why is the war in Ukraine going so badly, Mr. President?

Because you're not going to get called get called on for that. I want to get your take on. I know you wrote a column saying Donald Trump can win the nomination, but he cannot beat Joe Biden. Why do you believe that? Yeah.

So here's the thing.

So Biden is the most unpopular president in the history of polling, going back all the way to Harry Truman. On average, over the course of his first two years in office, he was below everybody except maybe Trump occasionally. He was back and back and forth with Trump. And yet in the midterm elections, he had the best performance of any president since JFK, except Bush after 9-11. Why is that?

It's not because voters approve of Joe Biden, it's because they disapproved of the alternative we're presenting.

Now, this Wall Street Journal poll came out and quantified this.

So Biden has a 54% disapproval rating. That should be He should be dead on arrival as a presidential candidate. That should be the, he should be like Lyndon Johnson saying, I'm not going to run because I can't win the election. But they've told the people who disapprove of both men. Right.

They disapprove of Biden, but they also disapprove of Trump. And among those voters, Thirty nine percent advantage for Joe Biden. He wins 54 to 15 with Trump.

So, what that means is these swing voters who disapprove of Joe Biden. Disapprove of Trump even more. They don't like Biden's performance, but they don't want Trump back. And those are the voters. If we're going to win this election, you got to get the 54% who disapprove of Biden.

That's the only way you do it. And so what's happening, we have this phenomenon where understandably because of this politicized indictment, and because he was a he had a great record in office, there's a surge in support for Trump now because he's gone from like the mid forties to the fifties in most of these polls.

So it's helping him get the nomination, but he's probably the only person who can't wrap Biden's record around his neck like an albatross and sink it.

So, are you not factoring in that Trump has the best team he has had yet? That he has kept his powder dry for the last two and a half weeks, which is smart, as people focus on Biden and he does not want to leave it in the locker room, so to speak. He's not having a rally that would be nice for the moment but wouldn't be sustainable. He seems to be much more organized. Are you factoring in that maybe Donald Trump at 76?

Has discovered discipline? Yeah. For the first time in his political career, and the fact that for two weeks he's he's behaved okay is is is giving me confidence. Here's the problem, I think, is that and look, you know me, I'm not a never Trumper. You know that I've spilled more ink than any human being alive in the Washington Post defending his record and defending him during his presidency.

I am not a never Trumper. What Donald Trump has done, unfortunately, is made himself irreparably toxic to the swing voters who are going to decide this election. This election is not going to be decided by everything you said, but you think irreparable. I think irreparable because of swing voters.

So he had, going into the last election in 2020, 56% of Americans said they were better off now than they were four years ago. under hip.

So people approved of his policies, but they didn't vote for him. Because if 56% of the country had voted for him, he'd be president.

So he drove away a lot of swing voters who benefited from his policies but didn't like him. And then, with his behavior after the election, he solidified that. And so now what you're seeing, and all the polls bear this out, all the data, is those swing voters are not going to vote for Donald Trump. And so he and so he he's alienated them so much that th those those impressions are set in stone now with a lot of them.

So we need somebody who can take Biden's fifty four percent disapproval and wring it around his neck like an anchor and sink him. And Trump's the one candidate in our field who can't do that. The thing that might change Mark Thiessen's mind is President Biden's policies, especially of late, have proven so bad The foreign policy has everybody I know nervous. The border, the testimony yesterday, what's happening? There's not one person who wouldn't want a clear-thinking person that wouldn't be on.

But that was true in in in No last November. I mean, that was true. That was you know, that we saw but don't you think abortion played a big role in that in November more than that? No, I don't. I really don't.

I honestly, no, I don't. I d I think that's the biggest myth.

So every governor who signed who actually signed an abortion ban into law got reelected. DeSantis got re-elected. Everybody's saying, oh my gosh, DeSantis isn't great. Why doesn't Brian Kemp run? He seems like such a reasonable guy.

He signed a six-week abortion ban. And he got re-elected by like eight or nine points. Sukusununu signed an abortion ban. He got reelected. Dewine signed an abortion ban.

He got re-elected. It wasn't that. The only reason abortion comes into play and maybe has an effect on the margins is if the other, if the Republican candidate is so unpopular and underperforming based on, if you're in a state where you should be winning by 10 points, but it's neck and neck, then abortion can make a difference. But if you have a strong candidate on all the other issues, then abortion shouldn't make it. It might cost you a point or two, but it's not going to make the difference in the election.

That's not it. It was Trump. Listen, I just wanted to get your line of thinking on it. The one thing is Trump is doing better in these primary polls than I thought was possible. I thought it was going to be neck and neck the whole way.

I know DeSantis is not in. I know that Senator Tim Scott's not in. Vice President Pence is not in, and Governor Snootenu is not in. I think they all are getting in. Here's Trump yesterday with John Castamatidis and Rita Cosby on WABC Radio.

He surprised me with the Truth Social post about the debates, and then he made it almost official Cut 12. There was word that you may not do a Republican debate. Is that true?

Well, I'm leading by 40 points. And a lot of people say, why would you do a debate when you have people at two and three and fifteen and fourteen? And DeSanctis is coming way down, and he's really showed us up.

Okay, we stopped it there. It ended a little abruptly, but basically, he does not want to debate. I don't know if he's working the refs. How do you feel about his line of thought? Saying, I'm winning by so much.

I was president. I don't need to do it.

Well, let's see how he's doing by the time he debates. But look, in a way. Uh I mean, he has nothing to gain from the debates because the only thing can happen is that somebody if he's leading is that somebody can like d he hit a hit him in the solar plexus and and he can't recover and then he hurts himself.

So I don't know that he may be smart to not do it. But listen, there's really two GOP primaries happening right now. There's the Trump primary, which is he's going to get whatever, like 40-something percent of the vote, like he did, maybe like he did in 2016. And there's another primary going on for the guy to go up against Trump. And so I've perf I'm quite frankly, I'm perfectly fine with having a series of debates among all the anti-Trump non-Trump candidates.

And by the time we get to Iowa, if one person hasn't emerged as the leader, then Trump's going to get the nomination.

So let them debate. Let's see if anybody else can get some traction. Right now, DeSantis has the most uh the m the the strongest uh uh poll, but maybe he won't do well. Maybe somebody else will emerge. By the time we get to Iowa, it's got to be a two man race.

these peop if you're getting like if you're polling at five percent or nine percent or eight percent, you got to get off the ballot and get out and let and let and let this be a two man race.

So I you know, I have no problem with seeing having a Republican primary for the for the right to challenge the the The former President. I want to bring you to Florida real quick, where the President, excuse me, the Governor decided to take on Disney when they decided to call out some of his policies. Famously, they mislabeled it, Don't Say Gay Bill. And we know they took away their autonomous status. And then Disney switched leaders, and now they pulled a fast one when they before dissolving their board.

They put the autonomous status back. And then Governor DeSantis acted, and yesterday he is being sued personally in Tallahassee by Disney. This battle is going on. DeSantis was asked about this in Israel two hours ago, cut 18. I don't think the suit has merit.

I think it's political. I think they filed in Tallahassee for a reason because they're trying to generate some district court decision. But we're very confident on the law. And the days of putting one company on a pedestal with no accountability are over in the state of Florida. And I just think that he's doing a lot of good for politicians and for the American people who are tired of corporations bullying them.

A hundred percent. I mean, look, if if this was Universal Studios. And he was punishing them because they came out for it. I wouldn't have a big deal. I would say that's unfair because Universal Studies is just a company doing business.

They don't have their own special district and tax status and self-governing rights, all the things. Disney is a corporation that has been engaged in crony capitalism with the state of Florida for decades. And they got all sorts of exclusive benefits because they're such a big employer and they use their size to get all sorts of tax benefits, self-governing benefits, and all the rest of that. And then they go and they attack the state of Florida when they're trying to do something to protect kids. You know what?

You lose your special benefits. I got no problem with that. If it was just a small business somewhere who did nothing but speak out, then that would be punitive. But this isn't punitive, this is taking away special benefits. And so I've got no problem with that.

That's a concern. And we've got to take on these world corporations because they are a threat to our country. I hear you. Mark Thiessen, always making news. Mark Thiessen, appreciate it.

Yeah. Thanks, Brian. And by the way, Governor Stance is extremely impressive in Israel. Check out what he did. No scripted questions, just pointed to people and let them talk.

Can you imagine having a press conference like that? Those were the days. Educating, entertaining, enlightening. You're with Brian Kilmead. A talk show that's real.

This is the Brian Kill Me Show. I do feel like the general public, they're waking up to this. Parents, dads, moms, they don't want to see their daughters lose out on opportunities and be forced to undress in front of someone of the opposite sex in their locker room.

So I do think tides are turning. There have been some sports governing bodies who have done some good things, World Athletics, FINA.

So I'm appreciating the little steps, but I do believe the battle is nowhere near being won. Yeah, there's going to be someone really damaged playing soccer, lacrosse, some type of physical sport for people to understand it. And there's going to need some flagrant victories by transsexuals. And the more this Leah Thomas talks, the more Riley Gaines looks smart. And all of you.

You know the rules. You have girls, you are a girl, you are a guy competing, you compete against your own gender. A radio show like no other. It's Brian. Kill Mead.

I don't think the suit has merit. I think it's political. I think they filed, you know, in Tallahassee for a reason because they're trying to generate some district court decision. But we're very confident on the law. And the days of putting one company on a pedestal with no accountability are over in the state of Florida.

And I will say a lot of Floridians were upset, particularly parents, that they really went so headstrong into trying to get the sexualization of the curriculum into the elementary schools. We don't think that that's appropriate in Florida. And that spans partisan, it spans everything. Parents, they want kids to be kids and they want to focus on the basics of academics. So the I'm just telling you, for those people who are skeptical about Ron DeSantis, why is he waiting so long?

Why is he taking on Disney? You should have watched that press conference today. And he is taking on Disney. He is not backing off. Disney is now helping the ante, hoping they get more Republican support because Chris Sununu, former Governor Jeb Bush, former Governor Rick Scott.

Chris Christie, you think that Governor Santis doing the wrong thing here. I actually don't. I think he's doing the wrong thing. I do want to add this news: that a very popular governor, Jim Justice, will now be running, made it official. He'll be running for the senate seat currently held by Joe Manchin.

He has in the latest poll a thirty point lead over Joe Manchin. Joe Manchin has been doing a lot of interviews. Did an interview with Sean Hannity. I guess he knew this was coming. Game on.

So he's one of the richest men in America. Very self-made success story. High school basketball coach.

Now he's a little older, but now he's looking to be the next senator from West Virginia. That is a state that's been dominated by Republicans. That could be a quick Senate flip. Jeff Landries, Louisiana Attorney General, joins us now. Jeff, welcome.

Brian, thank you. Good morning. Hey, I wanted to play that corporate before that news broke, I wanted to play that corporate fight that Ron DeSantis is having. Even though it's a very unique situation, autonomous zone within a state, do you think that's a fight Republicans should be comfortable with? Absolutely.

Look, what we've been seeing more and more is that these corporations, because of the immense power and market share in some particular sectors that they control, They are instead of using their influence at the capitals. and with elected officials They're trying to bend policy. To their in their mind, they're trying to affect policy through their boardroom and through their market share rather than through the normal democratic process. We've seen it at the Second Amendment, we've seen it with firearms manufacturers, we've seen it in the oil and gas sector. I mean, the list just goes on and on and on.

And that's the problem. When you start to see these things, recognize that. that our system of government has completely broken down. Yeah, I love the pushback. Do you notice there has not been a lot of corporate eruption since?

Remember the All-Star game? Remember the pushback on the mischaracterization of the Georgia law? There has not been a lot of overt corporations taking a stand. because they see it could be disastrous for their shareholders and it's irresponsible. What you're focusing on is something that I think is extremely important too.

You're prioritizing these companies like BlackRock who are prioritizing climate change and ESG standards over doing what they're supposed to be doing, and that is earning the most from the money we invest. Yeah, you know, Ron, and look, let me just say this: you're seeing a number of those boardrooms kind of quiet down for a little while right now, because that's what. What the left does, they go out, they get a little bit of ground, they get some pushback, and then they stop. But they're still holding that particular ground. We want to go back and reclaim that ground from them for the American people.

And what we're seeing is these financial institutions again embrace these ESNG policies that are not.

Sound business practices that basically force investors to invest in companies. Under which the technologies are not profitable are basically skeptical, and they're a high-risk. Stock. Can you give me an example?

Well, yeah, well, look, do I give you a better example than Silicon Valley Valley Bank? Listen, let's just think about that. Think about the reason. that that bank went on to think about the number of companies uh that they invested in in green technology uh that that were not basically being able to meet There Um uh the debt that they had as interest rates rose. Because again, many of these companies, especially in the green space, are relied upon certain government Tax breaks, credits.

uh grants and so forth. And so what we're trying to do is make sure that these Investment houses the Yeah. Those people who are holding Americans' retirement portfolio. or investing in companies that have a sound true pr uh record of producing profits. And so, you know, we look at we looked at Franklin Templeton.

And we saw that they have executives that are sitting on On the Climate Action 100 board, and that they're basically instituting ESG policies in the way that they're investing and basically skipping over say. Oil and gas? or fossil fuel companies. Which have been known to Produce great profits, okay? affordable energy that Americans need.

And they're basically shunning those particular companies for companies that. We don't know what their investment, w what what their profitability track record is. It's just crazy. Have you felt, I mean, as this Americans became aware of this, maybe 18 months ago, have you felt there's been a change in the Wall Street, these major forms, the BlackRocks, the JPMorgans, and others? Because guys like me, who you trust financial advisors, whether you have $4 or $4 million, you trust financial advisors doing the best to maximize your earnings.

But maybe they don't know I was being informed by some of my business people that this stuff is going on. Yeah, look, I I d I don't I don't think they've changed. I think they've done exactly what you said. They're just quietly going about still doing the same thing, which certainly doesn't place our retirement portfolios in any safer position. But let's look at CalPERS, right, the largest retirement system in the country, which is California's retirement Board, right?

That's that's what Cal the state of California is holding all of the retirement portfolio. One of the things we we want to know from them is like how much Stock did you have? in Silicon Valley Bank. Right? And why did you invest in that particular bank?

Did you invest in it? Because you thought that it had sound practices, or did it meet some ESNG scores? You know, those are the questions that we'd like to find out.

So, you know, again, Brian, those are questions that every American should be asking. I mean, the last thing we want to do is be looking back and finding that we've got some big Wall Street crash only because. The investments were all made in companies that don't have the ability to turn over profits.

So we're talking to Jeff Landry, the Louisiana Attorney General.

So, Jeff, I know West Virginia and Florida are starting to divest from these companies and taking their pension funds and going elsewhere, just pulling money out. Have you guys done that? We have been putting a tremendous amount of pressure on our state treasurer. To do exactly that. He seems to be moving in that particular direction.

We look, Louisiana has been a traditional oil and gas state. We have twenty-one percent of the entire refining capacity in the state of Louisiana. We produce great things that Americans need each and every day. The largest fertilizer plant in the country is right here in Louisiana. Yet financial institutions want to shun those particular manufacturing centers to go out there and build I don't know, wind farms?

Right? That doesn't do us any good. It doesn't make the corn grow any faster.

Well, not only is that experimental and unproven, but they're not going to the thing that is proven, and that the world needs oil and gas, and we have it, and that you produce it.

So it's counterintuitive and productive against your own state interest to be to put any of your money or anybody to put their money who refuse to maximize oil and gas production when we do it cleaner than anybody else.

Well exactly, and Brian, look, here's something maybe m many listeners don't know. One of the key ingredients of making fertilizer is natural gas. Natural gas is used in the making of fertilizer. Right, so if we don't have any natural gas, we don't have any fertilizer, we don't have the ability to increase yields, guess what happens? We end up starving.

Right. People don't want to hear that. They just want to hear you got an electric car and how clean you're driving, but they don't want to know that 70% of all the batteries come from China. You know, they don't want to hear it.

Well well, let me give you another another great example. I was talking to a fellow the other day who was in the coal industry. All right. Do you know that one of the byproducts Of coal when you burn coal. Is ash.

Yes. Okay, without ash. You can't make steel without ash. Like that, the problem is, people don't understand. the value that many of these companies and many of these products have That makes our lives easier and more enjoyable.

Look, I've said it again and again and again. And we're going into the oil and gas sector. There is no. Industry. No industry.

And I'd love you to find somebody. I'll debate 'em on your radio show. that has lifted more people out of poverty. Not just here in this country. Then oil and gas and coal.

I mean, those forms of energy have bec are reliable? We've learned to make them affordable. We've learned to do it completely. Cleaner. The United States leads in the reduction of carbon emissions, yet we receive all of our products.

From a country that has a terrible record. in carbon emissions. And yet we're penalized while China continues to be able to build coal factories Continue to build reliable power, and Americans over here are suffering. That's why we see inflation. Jeff, I'm going to have to let you go now, but I just did you made your point.

But you know what? The other point is. I never hear from the oil and gas companies. I never hear people making the coal industry making that point about ash and talk about the role it plays with steel. Very easy concept to understand, but unless you're in the business, we'd never know it.

So if they could make the case by telling the facts to what they do, and it would help bring people back into your industry, because one of the things diabolical thing they're doing is they're discouraging kids from getting into oil and gas as if it's a bad thing. And look family legacies are dying in this generation. And you're doing the good thing, bringing awareness to it. But these people in these businesses, in these industries, have to sell their story. And they have money, get some PR, get some marketing, and do what the other guys are doing.

Jeff, go ahead. Thank you.

Well, thank you. There are some folks out there. I know Tom Raskins has an organization called T, it's called the Energy Alliance. I think it's TEA. There are some of them, but you're right.

I have been saying for a long time, Brian, we need to tell that story. And I appreciate you giving me some time on your show today to say that story. People need to know what's happening before it's too late. Jeff Landry, Louisiana Attorney General, appreciate it. All right, we come back.

I'm going to take the phone calls from you, I promise. 1-866-408-7669. Brian Killmee Cho.

So glad you're here.

Coming to you on a need-to-know basis, because Mandy, you need to know. It's Brian Kilmead. The more you listen, the more you'll know. It's Brian Killmeade. All right, guess what?

That means we came right out of the break to More to Know. You actually surprised me, Josh.

So that's my bet. When I redo this for the West Coast, I'm gonna knock that out. I'm gonna start right away. Hey, it's time for More to Know, and I got a fist full of stories, so let's get started. More to know.

I've been talking to this girl on the internet for a while. I've actually been trying to save some money to go see this woman. To talk to her online. I go to the library, believe it or not, to talk to this woman. I met her on MySpace, and she's a very beautiful woman.

She's tall, skinny, red-headed, very beautiful woman. Her name is Joby. You met here, Brad, here on the internet. Yes, we met on MySpace. On MySpace?

You think this could be the one? Yes. Because I have a secret to tell him. You have a secret to tell him. Yes.

And your secret is, I'm a man, Jarian. Right, he was Hmm. What a great tribute. If I die, promise not to bring up any transsexual interviews I've done.

So, you pulled this cut to show how crazy Jerry Springer was.

Now, the crazy Jerry Springer, that's mainstream. We're covering it on the news. The guest on Jerry Springer could be Dylan Mulvaney today. Literally, like, looks very similar. Dead at 79.

Unfortunate.

Next. Aaron Rodgers, for me, I was stunned. He is so excited to be part of the New York Jets. I am now a believer this team can contend for the Super Bowl. He's that electric.

I'm here because I believe in this team, I believe in Coesala. I believe in the direction Joe Douglas. Obviously, he's drafted really well the last couple of years, having the offensive and defensive rookie of the year. Um A big thanks to the Jets organization. Obviously, a big thanks to the Green Bay Pack organization for an incredible run.

Uh that chapter is over now. And I'm excited about the new adventure here in New York. There you go. Aaron Rodgers pumped up, and the Jets fans are over the moon. They have not won since 1969.

Class act. Also, when it was told that Joe Naman said you can wear my number 12, even though the Jets retired it, he said, Forget that. Joe's royalty. I'm going to wear my college number eight. That's good news, right, Pete?

Yeah, absolutely. But here's my question: if you're a fan of the Jets, are you upset that he wouldn't commit beyond this upcoming season? It says more than likely he'll come back. Listen, the guy just said in Mexico, would he have a bloodletting? Yeah.

And didn't he sit in the dark in the dark for three weeks? Yeah, I prefer only two weeks. Right. And doesn't he do psychedelic drugs with Joe Rogan or something? Yes.

And he inoculated himself from COVID. How he did that, I don't know. But he did. I would, yeah. By the power vested in him.

But I will say this. I think he's just being honest. Let's see how this goes. And then in the middle of the year, if it starts going well, I'm sure he'll make an announcement. If he does walk away, the Jets have less of a pick to give, right?

65% of the states. Yes, as long as he plays. If he plays 65%, then it becomes a first-round draft pick in 2024.

Next, Dwayne Wade is moving his family out of Florida. Why? Because he's got a transgender daughter, and he believes that Florida is unfriendly to transgenders. He said, another reason why I don't live in the States, a lot of people don't know it, but I have to make decisions for my family, not just personal, individual decisions. And he told that to Rachel Nichols, who got herself in some trouble a while ago, who's unbelievably talented, by the way.

So he's moving out of Florida. He's the one. Misunderstanding the law, but I will say you also have to make sure that your kids aren't bullied either. If this is what they're saying, is this all sports? You can tell Pete did this.

This is all sports. But transgender. I love it. Yeah, transgender. Apparently, though, he also had like a battle with his ex-wife, his daughter's mother, about changing her name and gender.

So, I mean, it's. Pretty controversial. You talk about controversial subjects, it's not just college. Yeah. You know, it's not like can they wear sneakers in days to school where they don't have gym?

That was the controversy in my house. But they say, you wear shoes unless you have gym. And that was We never stopped to argue. I'm still arguing about that today. Still today.

You can't get over it. And now defendable. One of the reasons why I wore white socks up until every day, including my wedding, was because one time I went to the gym in colored socks. And I forgot my days mixed up. And it was so embarrassing, I never wanted to be caught like that again, so I decided to wear white socks every day.

So were you just embarrassed or did kids make fun of you? I was just embarrassed. I don't remember people making fun of me because I don't know. We weren't really a mocking town. Not a big mocking town.

Not a lot of bullies. Wore white socks at your wedding? Oh yeah. And everyone was required to. Yeah, by a whole wedding party.

Should I wear white socks this weekend to my niece's confirmation? You have to. You never know when you have gym. You never know. It might be a weekend gym class.

You want to be caught? I love the way that Jyn teachers too, they go write your name on the back of the shirt. And across your backside on your shorts, like right from cheek to cheek. But you don't write them once they're on, you write them before you put them on. From high atop Fox News headquarters in New York City.

Always seeking solutions, never sowing division. It's Brian Kilmead. Hi, everyone. Welcome to the latest moments of the Brian Kill Me Show.

So glad you're here.

We have a lot on tap today. I'm going to at the bottom of the hour. I really look forward to this, be able to speak to Lindsay Berra, Yogi Berra's granddaughter, just about the dad's legacy, a brand new documentary out. One of the most beloved figures in sports history. Anywhere you go, if you say Yogi, they'll say Yogi Berra and what he meant as a manager, as a personality, as an ambassador, and he was a heck of a player in the Hall of Fame for a reason.

In fact, I was at Cooperstown this weekend, had a chance to see his plaque. Pretty impressive. Jonathan Turley is going to be up next. And then a little bit later, Dr. Jeanette Neshwat.

She has come out. She found the problem. As she's treating all these COVID patients, she's finding one thing: depletion in vitamin B and vitamin C. She's put it together. It's got a brand new, it's got a brand new supplement out.

So check that out also. Anthony Fauci gave an extensive interview about his decisions during the pandemic. He did nothing wrong ever and never had a mandate and never said anything about anything. It is comical, but it's so beyond aggravating and dishonest. Let's get to the big three.

Now, with the stories you need to know, it's Brian's big three. Number three. I don't think the suit has merit. They really went so headstrong into trying to get the sexualization of the curriculum into the elementary schools. We don't think that that's appropriate in Florida.

Parents, they want kids to be kids, and they want to focus on the basics of academics. And that is Ron DeSantis talking about the Disney suit when he's in Israel, which is where he is right now. Iger sues Ron. Ron responds, why this is bigger than these two men, this state and this corporation, and why I think DeSantis already won for all of us. Number two.

I discovered that children are being trafficked.

Some sponsors view children as commodities and assets to be used for earning income. This is why we are witnessing an explosion of labor trafficking. Yeah, that is Tara Lee Rodas, which he witnessed at the border is something that was exposed yesterday in hearings. The Biden broken border is responsible for massive pain, suffering in America amongst many, many illegals, hundreds of thousands of which are unaccompanied minors. The pain was on display in hearings on Wednesday.

They have lost track of 85,000 kids we exposed to death, destruction, and dereliction of duty. Number one. A photographer in the White House Press Corps got a picture of the president's placard in his hand, the name, outlet, and question from that LA Times reporter. The question that she actually asked the president was quite a bit more elaborate, but Biden certainly got a heads up on the topic and the general thrust of her question. And this is what I've been asked Jonathan Turley about.

That was Jackie Heinrich. Not only did they not call on Fox, they called on the LA Times and they knew the exact question that they were going to be asked. This to me is incredible. Plus, a picture of her laminated. You got to be kidding me.

You cannot script the press how this president wants four more years, six overall, yet he's proving time and time again that he's not up for the job. He doesn't talk to the press. He doesn't make himself available. Yet he takes long vacations at his vacation home and yet never does anything unscripted. When he does, we find out it was scripted.

Joining us now is Jonathan Turley. Jonathan, this is unbelievable that any member of the press, I can understand the subject. Hey, I'm going to be asking about this. Court case. Just going to tell you, Clarence Thomas, I want to find out how you feel about what he's doing with this billionaire.

Whatever it is, I could understand the subject, but I don't understand the question ahead of time. Do you? Yes, that's it's really breathtaking. Many of us have raised this question over the loss of an independent media. And the concern from a constitutional standpoint is we have a constitution that was really designed to deal with the classic threat to free speech and the free press.

That is a sort of ministry of truth, the imposition of government controls over media. But you can also have a state media by consent rather than coercion, and that's what we're seeing. is that we're seeing a enabling media assisting the president. I can't imagine any way a reporter could justify in her mind giving a question in advance to the President and at least not publicly acknowledging that. I mean, if this photographer hadn't taken this picture, there this would never have come out.

The reporter didn't say afterwards, oh yeah, I asked a question that I had previously given to the White House. And not only that, this happened a year ago. Remember that card was exposed where it said walk in the room, find the open seat, say hello to everyone, then welcome the press in. Basic things like wake up, put your feet on the floor, bend your knees, lock your knees, put your right foot first. I never would expect somebody to need that type of prompting.

What's going on? This is, to me, is really concerning. Kayleigh McEnany weighed in on it. She knows a thing or two about this situation as a former press secretary, as compared to a guy that obviously was never scripted. Cut nine.

The idea that a presidential press conference, you would be given the questions in advance and be able to write down first question and the exact question from the reporter, that is an inconceivable thought to me as a former press secretary. I mean, do you think that they submitted to me, we want to ask Trump, you know, why are you evil? Of course they didn't submit that to me. So you understand how outrageous it is for someone like her who took incoming like I've never seen before. Yeah, that's the great irony here is that the media, of course, hated Trump and still does.

Uh but they've rarely had a President with greater who gave greater access. The problem was getting the President away from the media. You know, at points it seemed like the media was looking at their watches trying to break off uh because Trump would have these uh you know unscripted encounters. And yes, he said things that really were breathtaking at points, highly controversial. But he gave that type of access.

The President here has rarely given interviews. He's at the far bottom of modern presidents in terms of press conferences. And that alone would not necessarily be concerning because you can have a sort of rose garden strategy if things aren't going well. But the concern is that it's occurring at a time when people are very concerned over his cognitive state. And what they're doing is fulfilling that narrative, whether true or not.

By protecting him from any types of questions or unscripted encounters. I just, I think it was the New York Times that said, you keep telling us, Mr. President, say, watch me. No, we would like to, but we can't find you. You're never around.

So we'll see. He does say that, don't judge me. Says two things all the time: watch me. We are. Number two is don't judge me against.

The Almighty judged me against the alternative, meaning Donald Trump. Another alternative might be Ron DeSantis. I'm sure you weren't up at 4 in the morning, or else I would have called you, Jonathan, when Ron DeSantis had his press conference, but he was asked about the Disney lawsuit. And just to update you out there, Bob Igers Disney, now that he's in charge, is suing Ron DeSantis for basically saying that they unjustly are personally attacking this company and hurting their ability to earn money. Cut 18.

I think it's political. I think they filed in Tallahassee for a reason because they're trying to generate some district court decision. But we're very confident on the law. The days of putting one company on a pedestal with no accountability are over in the state of Florida. And I will say a lot of Floridians were upset, particularly parents, that they really went so headstrong into trying to get the sexualization of the curriculum into the elementary schools.

We don't think that that's appropriate in Florida, and that spans partisan, it spans everything. Parents, they want kids to be kids, and they want to focus on the basics of academics. And he's focusing on the fact that he took away their autonomous status when they started weighing in on different policies that they collectively as a company didn't like.

So, what Disney did yesterday is they took action. At the governor's bidding, the state's oversight board was purported to void publicly noticed and unduly agreed developing contracts, which had laid the foundation for billions of Disney investment dollars. a targeted campaign of government retaliation orchestrated at every step by Governor DeSantis as punishment for Disney's protected free speech led to this lawsuit. And they go on. Who has the better Case here.

I think the state has the better case. I read the complaint. I was rather underwhelmed. The claims here are going to be rather difficult to make.

Now the governor's governor noted they picked a particularly good jurisdiction to file in, and so they may be able to generate an initial victory. But in the long run, these are Highly challengeable claims. They're making free speech claims and a takings claim. As examples of where I think they're going to have a serious problem in the courts. I mean, Disney hasn't been silenced, it's allowed to speak.

What they're suggesting is that Florida doesn't have the right to essentially take away their special status, because what Florida is doing here is ultimately imposing the same requirements on Disney's other companies. For a court to say you can't do that. because it might be a retaliation for something the company said would be a pretty far intrusion into legislative authority. I just can't imagine that a court's going to sign off on that. Also, saying that the takings is sort of weird.

A takings is when someone takes something from you, the government takes something from you and doesn't give you compensation. But what's being removed here is a special status. It's a status that other companies don't have.

So, I'm pretty skeptical about this complaint. The other thing is that I'm not entirely sure Disney. Can cite the previous board for what it did at the last minute. It says that this was noticed. The state takes a different view.

They and so does the new board. They don't believe that this was properly noticed under state law. You're supposed to give notice seven days in advance of what you're going to be doing. This was more of a jump scare by Disney. They kept it sort of on the lowdown and then made this decision before anyone could stop it.

They may have been too clever by half in that sense. This thing could be dead as Dillinger because of how they did it. I always thought when Bob Iger came in, that would give him the out to just to calm things down, but it doesn't look like any effort was made on either side, and that's what we're witnessing now. What's interesting, too, and this is the political realm: Donald Trump is siding with Disney. We also have Jeb Bush siding with Disney, Governor Sununu siding with Disney, Chris Christie siding with Disney, and then Nikki Haley tweeted this out: says, My home state will happily accept your 70,000 jobs if you want to leave Florida.

We've got great weather, great people, and it's always a great day in South Carolina as not woke, but we're not sanctimonious about it either.

So it's politics. But they're not going anywhere. Yeah, I don't understand. Where they're coming from there because This is a popular cause for DeSantis, certainly in Florida, and I think elsewhere. I mean, Disney is sort of the Battlestar Galactica.

They're used to getting their way, and they're going to be fighting for the right to do things like setting their own environmental regulations and pay scales. That doesn't put them on the side of the Angels. And so we'll see how this plays out, but it seems to me that DeSantis is in a better legal and political position going forward. What I have to say is I don't understand the legal strategy here. Even if Disney prevails, there's a myriad of ways that the state can make their life miserable.

They're going to lose. They're going to lose either directly or indirectly, but they're going to lose. And I'm astonished that Iger's doubling down. He had the chance, as you've noted. to come in and say, you know what?

Flag on the play. Give DeSantis his day and say, let's repair this relationship. Instead, he's doubling down on a bad hand. And I think that's what this is. Also, he's looking at a situation where publicly he's laughing off hundreds of people.

This is what's going on at Disney. Excuse me, at ESPN, they just laughed off hundreds of people. They're doing it across the board on Disney. I wouldn't think that they wanted to waste any money fighting something legally. I got to ask you, too.

I have not been paying close attention, but it matters for this race, and that is the rape accusation on Donald Trump from 20, 25 years ago, and now that's morphed into a defamation case in New York City. They are going to be crossed, the complaint, the plaintiff, will be cross-examined today. Where is this heading?

Well, once again, this is coming down to the world's worst jury pool. You know, this is being litigated in a town where very few people have positive views of Trump. The most precarious aspect is that this is a type of case that not testifying can be really deadly. You know, because she testified yesterday in a very she gave a very tearful and emotional testimony about her claims of being raped. for Trump not to take the stand I could have a really bad impact on this jury.

They may take the view that, look, if you're not willing to answer on the stand for this, why should I really sweat the specifics? But on the face of it, this should be a difficult case to make for the plaintiff. I mean, this happened.

So many years ago, and the witnesses they're going to bring forward are largely tangential. Obviously, it's a she said, he said type of case. And so normally, particularly in the defamation realm, that would be a fairly weak case to bring. But nothing is normal when it comes to Donald Trump. And this is a risk for him.

Because even if this could get overturned later, a conviction here is not going to be viewed as a civil defamation ruling. It's going to be viewed as a reaffirmation of a rape allegation. Any th uh sense From your sources being in Washington, what happened with Hunter Biden's lawyers went into the Department of Justice this week? What does that usually indicate with a five-year-long investigation? You know, I think that Hunter Biden really is, his team is realizing that.

Time is no longer on their side, and it's because of the House Republicans. They are moving very aggressively to uncover Some of his dealings. And I think that what the White House particularly would like to see is for this to be capped off, even if there's a criminal charge. charge and a plea. And I think they would like to see it.

Come down with no FARA violations, no allegation that he was an unregistered foreign agent, because that would blow back on the Biden family and his father. Because a FARA violation would really raise the entire influence peddling scheme, and Joe Biden was the subject of that scheme. It would also put Merrick Garland in a bad position, because if he was an unregistered foreign agent, why didn't you appoint a special counsel since the president would have been the source of that?

So I think that what they would like to do is cap it off before things get worse with all of these house subpoenas. Wow, Jonathan, I just keep adding up the bill. I'd rather pay at the end of the month. I don't want to pay per appearance. I hit you on three detailed cases.

I always feel bad at the end. I do feel like I owe you something because you certainly help our audience. Jonathan, thanks so much. Thank you.

All right. Hey, listen to Brian Killmeat show. Don't forget, listen tonight at eight. Got a great show. They're just sending me the rundown now on the Fox News channel.

And then don't forget One Nation, which is Saturday at eight o'clock. I'm dominating the eight o'clock. You'll see a lot of Brian Killmead at eight o'clock. Eastern Time. Dr.

Jeanette Neshwatt, in about 15 minutes, you're next. Don't move. Giving you everything you need to know. You're with Brian Kilmead. If you're interested in it, Brian's talking about it.

You're with Brian Kilmead. He announced for presidency yesterday for president, and he did it through a video. He didn't even. Stand behind a podium and make an announcement. Who's ever heard of a thing like this?

You don't do that. You get up and you say, I'm going to be running for reelection or president and and that's the way it is. But He did it through a video. It's pretty sad. That is a little of President Trump's interview with John Castamatitis and read a Cosby essay on WABC Radio.

Donald Trump's also on trial, accused of. Accused of all types of things from 25 years ago. I believe rape was one of them, and now defamation is another.

So he's got that. He's got the Georgia situation. We do not know what that Attorney General is going to do. We also don't know what's happening with the Mar-a-Lago investigation, but there's been a ton of leaks. No leaks at all on what happened in Delaware.

And there has not been an effective briefing of the Gang of Eight on the intelligence that may have been in. They may have been in Joe Biden's garage, his summer homes, University of Delaware, as well as the University of Pennsylvania office, as well as his lawyer's office over in Boston.

So when we come back, we have a little bit of fun. We turn down the heat just a little bit with a very special guest. And then we'll end the hour, special guest with Dr. Jeanette Neshwat. And then we'll talk to Lindsay Berra, Yogi Berra's granddaughter.

Brand new documentary. Radio that makes you think this is the Brian Kill Me Show. The real issue is: how long do you keep that shutdown? How long do you keep the schools closed? And if you recall and go back on many of the things I've said in a lot of interviews, is that we've got to do whatever we can to get the schools open and get them open safe and keep them open.

And I've said that many, many times, but the initial decision. Early on in the middle of that crisis. I believe it was the right decision. How long you kept them closed really varied depending upon the locale. And again, Effie Fauci never stops.

He's maddening in his deception. The initial decision is definitive. To shut down was the right decision. Fine. The six feet apart, totally made up, dating back 100 years to the first pandemic.

That's a lot of reason why a lot of these classrooms didn't close. They said, we're not going to have room for all these kids. What have I got to do? Bring them in half the student body at a time? I can't even work that out.

That means I need two sets of teachers. And then what he did is, I wanted them to open up as quick as possible, safely.

Okay, no kidding. The question is: what are you doing to characterize any school as safe, safe enough as opposed to the Ramifications of not opening it up. He never compared it to the collateral damage of not opening up. Only looked at it from the medical side, not the psychological, emotional side. And we're still paying the price for that.

Well, he's denying he played a role in that. A person literally at the tip of the spear with this in New York City, treating COVID patients, trying to figure out if respirators would be effective and if a vaccine would ever come. Dr. Jeanette Neshwat, Fox News contributor, family and emergency medical doctor. She's got a big announcement.

That'll boost your immune system in a moment. But Dr. Neshwat, Do you understand the frustration for me representing the civilian, the people of this world without a medical degree, have with Anthony Fauci? Oh, absolutely. Absolutely.

They have every right to be frustrated. They have every right to be angry, especially what we've done to our children in this country and globally across the world. We've learned that children are the lowest risk cohort. They were the ones least likely to be hospitalized. They were the ones least likely to die.

Yet we put on them the most stringent requirements and restrictions. And, you know, I understand, Brian, as the first two weeks, the first 15 days, you know, to stop the spread, that's understandable, two weeks. But then that two weeks turned into two months, turned into two years, and that's when things got out of control. And it did nothing but harm our children mentally, emotionally, educationally, and development-wise when it comes to their growth and their cognition and their interactions with other children, the way they interact, the way they speak, the way they see their teacher's face, which was covered up with a mask.

So you take all of this together. They're combining it all together, and you see now they're declining with their education, with math, with reading, with their emotional status. We're seeing increases in anxiety and depression, increases in teen suicide, increases in ER visits because of anxiety and depression, and even substance abuse.

So, right now, it's damage control. We really need to focus on our kids and find ways and paths to catch up and help them heal. To show you how disingenuous he is. Uh and diabol and and deceptive. Is because I remember them scrambling to come up with some type of vaccine that would be in right proportion for kids for preschoolers.

For inference. They're looking for a vaccine to get kids into preschool. Wait, wait, wait a second. You see they're seeing the stats in real time. They understand there's almost no risk.

There's risk in everything. You get hit by a car on the way if you're walking to school a day on the way or driving, there's always a risk. But to do that a year and a half in Was absolutely insane. And then we find out the teachers' union is working with the CDC to make sure schools are closed. Randy Weingarten was on Capitol Hill yesterday, and she was basically admitting that she was changing the press release from the CDC with no qualifications.

CUD 47. I just don't know. I understand that. When was the first time you engaged with CDC? in any way, shape or form directly.

The first time was when they asked us to do the Zoom. I think the first time. Look, I'm 65 years old. I don't remember everything anymore. I'm sorry.

But she admitted to editing that. And that as soon as you let a union president edit a medical document that allows teachers to stay home, I think you lost credibility and you should have you probably should have been let go.

Well Absolutely. We've lost credibility with the teachers' unions, with the CDC, with the NIH, with almost every government organization because their priorities are backwards. And we always said follow the science, but that's exactly the opposite of what they did. You know, and you know, forcing kids to go to school wearing masks, Brian, that didn't work, that made things worse for them, forcing vaccines upon them, not letting them go to school because of vaccine requirements, which is ridiculous, forcing them through unnecessary testing, and then the lockdown. You know, it was completely inappropriate.

We've harmed them. And, you know, just like what we see at the southern border with Majorca not doing a good job and hurting Americans, we see this with Weingart hurting our children. And, you know, I happened to ran into her at the airport recently, and I said, Do you have any regrets? And I didn't get much of an answer. But, you know, it's very unfortunate what has happened.

It should never happen again. We really need to do everything we can to protect our children, especially with all that they've gone through. You know, I've taken care of thousands of COVID patients on the front lines. A handful of them were children who were sick. Most of them were the older people with underlying medical conditions.

And that's where we need to keep our focus, not on our children. And the other big thing would be firing nurses and teachers because they didn't want to get the vaccination. I have a friend who has a salon kettering, I think, for 22 years. And after going there day and night, they said, Oh, yeah, you got two weeks to get a vaccination and you're fired. And they fired her.

And she's been unable to get a job since. That basically brings her in where she was. That girl's name is Ann Masato. And she's been on our channel a few times. And she's still not hired back.

I mean, you should be hiring back people back. Then we find out, Dr. Neshwatt, and you knew this, that immunity was good, if not better, than the vaccination. And she got it. She got it right away.

So she had the antibody. No, sorry, you're fired. Teachers came back, but they went back as if they had no tenure.

So they go back at year one. This is punishment, and this is the problem with mandates. If people want to know the difference between administrations, Trump never would have mandated. He was proud of warp speed. He was convinced it was going to be effective.

I got the vaccination. I don't regret it. Because mainly it freed me up to do everything, but I never got it to this day. Before or after, and you know, I was working every day in Manhattan.

So you're more exposed than me, but I never got it.

So, having said that, That he never would have mandated is created so much anger in this country, I can't tell you. And then I'm watching a video last week of kids in Ithaca, New York, and we have a station up in Ithaca in Cor right around Cornell. And there's fourth graders walking outside with masks. That's abuse. That that was that's just pure ignorance.

That was absurd. And I agree, it is it's abusive. You're outside playing in the heat with a mask on, you can't breathe.

Some of these kids have asthma. That was one of the the most ridiculous Stupid policies I have ever seen as a physician. And then you're absolutely right, forcing our military, our firefighters, our police officers that we desperately need, firing them for not getting a vaccine when most of them had natural immunity, which you're absolutely right, in my opinion, can provide stronger protection than vaccine immunity. But you know what? Many people have natural immunity.

Many people have vaccine immunity or combination of both. That should have been an alternative. That should have been acknowledged. If you have natural immunity, you should have the freedom to choose if you want to get the vaccine or not. That's the beauty of living in America: freedom and not to be forced to take a vaccine.

That does not stop you from catching COVID and it does not stop you from spreading it.

Now, I will have to say that I did notice in my senior citizen patients who have underlying medical conditions like heart disease or diabetes or lung disease, it did help keep them out of the hospital. But risk versus benefit, like you said, there's risks with everything. Myocarditis can happen. Reaction can happen, rashes can happen. I've seen it with all of the thousands of patients that I've taken care of.

So we just need to use common sense and learn from these horrific mistakes that our leaders have made and make sure that it never happens again. Tell me about the supplement you came up with and why you did it. Yeah, so even prior to the pandemic, I always had patients come in, say they were tired, they were run down, they were achy, maybe they were just fighting a cold. And I always like to use natural conservative measures and treatments.

So I always say to them, drink some hot tea, take some vitamin B twelve, take some vitamin C. It'll help boost your immune system. And after saying that a million times, it just dawned on me. I it clicked. I came up with what's called BC Boost, which stands for vitamin B and vitamin C.

And it helps to help naturally strengthen your immune system, keep you healthy, keep you strong. It also has a touch of zinc, which helps strengthen your immune system. And you can get a bottle at bcboost.com. Dr. Nashua, it's great.

I have it. Thanks so much for my bottle, and I look forward to seeing you again. Yes, sir. Have a great day. Thanks for having me.

All right, when we come back, guess what? The game has changed, but one thing is pretty constant: our legends are remembered forever. From Joe DiMaggio to Babe Ruth to Ted Williams to Yogi Berra, Yogi's granddaughter, brand new documentary. We'll be here with a clip and an explanation on why this was the right time to salute that great catcher. Don't move.

Educating, entertaining, enlightening. You're with Brian Kilmead. Breaking news, unique opinions. Hear it all on the Brian Kill Me Show. To have Yogi not included in the Greatest Living Players of 2015.

I mean, that makes no sense to me whatsoever. I don't I don't quite understand that. There are only two people with more than 350 home runs and fewer than 500 strikeouts in the whole history of Major League Baseball. And their names are Joe DiMaggio and Yogi Berra.

So that's some of the reason why Lindsay Berra did not went ahead and put a documentary together on her grandfather, Yogi Berra, because he was not listed as the greatest Yankees. The problem is the all-time greatest players were Yankees. Babe Ruth, I guess Ted Williams, Boston, Red Sox, but yeah, Babe Ruth. Glue Gehrig. Yo DiMaggio, Mickey Manel.

The question is, does Yogi Berra belong there? Uh in the top ones.

So, yeah, let me know when we get her, and then we'll play some of that. Real quick, the Yankees did go out to win last night, first time in a long time. They won 12-6. The season high, 12 runs, 14 hits. They have not been getting over three runs for a while.

And they're now 14-11 on the year, and they scored a seed, and the Mets lost by a score of 4-1 yesterday. I was actually in Cooperstown on Sunday.

So Lindsay Barra, this is the perfect time for you to come on. Lindsay, what prompted you, I understand, to do this on your grandfather was the fact that maybe you're worried that people are going to start forgetting how great he was? I don't know that it was like maybe. I just started sort of seeing. kind of proof that he was.

You know, the movie opens Um right before the 2015 All-Star Game, they had a ceremony on the field at the Great American Ballpark in Cincinnati, and they introduced the four greatest living baseball players, and it was Hank Aaron, Willie Mays, Sandy Koufax and Johnny Bench. And I'm at home watching this on television with my very much alive Grandpa Yogi. And not that I think he should replace any of them, but if you're going to talk about the greatest living players in 2015, he should have been on that list. He had more World Series than any of them, more MVPs, more all-star game appearances. And I just think he belongs in that conversation.

And That's one thing that I want the documentary to remind people that he really was a tremendous player. I think the yogiisms kind of overshadowed his personality, became bigger than his accomplishments on the baseball field. But I also want to give full credit to our producer, Peter Sobolov, because it really was his idea to do the documentary. I didn't put the project into motion. It was really all Peter Soboloff.

But I do think that the doc goes a long way to introduce Grandpa to a new generation of fans and remind the folks who did see him play and who are more familiar with him just how great he was as a ball player and really as a human being as well.

So, Edward R. Murrow, I couldn't believe this. This is on your documentary. Here he is asking your grandfather and your grandmother about the people who make fun of him for his yogiisms. Cut 53.

Yogi, you take a lot of ribbing. Does it ever get onto your skin?

Well, not at all, Ed. There's an old saying in bass, Val. If the ball players kid you, they like you. If they don't kid you, they don't like you. Does this kidding ever bother you, Mrs.

Barrough? No, it doesn't. He's a pretty good bench document himself. Mrs. Barrett, you call your husband Yogi, too?

Yes, I do, mister Merrill, although I feel a little guilty about it. I feel that I should call him Larry, but we have a son named Larry also. And I feel that it's easier to distinguish between the two by calling him Yogi.

So, Edward Ormuro, talking to your grandfather and grandmother, what's that like? You know, it's so funny. I've seen that footage so many times, but I'm just sitting here and even just listening to my grandmother's voice just brings a tear to my eye. I miss them so much. That Edward R.

Murrow footage is tremendous. And like you said, that's early. That's around 1953, I believe, that that footage was from. And a lot of that making fun of, you know, Joe DiMaggio said grandpa looked like a fire hydrant. The New York press, he was called a gorilla, an ape.

Someone wrote that he was too ugly to be a Yankee. What does that even mean? Too ugly to be a Yankee. And grandpa's response to all that was, you know, I never saw anybody hit with his face.

So he was really able to let that criticism and the poking fun kind of roll off of his back and kind of silence the critics with what he was able to do on the field at that point. But he just really, it's just proof that he really was kind of underestimated at every turn. He didn't look like a ball player. He was too short, too thick, too stocky, apparently too ugly. I think he was adorable.

I don't really know what people were talking about. I actually, I 100% agree with you. Plus, obviously we wouldn't talk like that now. I want you to hear everyone knows Yogi Bear, but for a while he disappeared from the scene. He had a rift after the way George Steinbrenner fired him a handful of games into the season.

They came back together at the Yogi Bear Museum. Here's that moment. Yogi went to the door and let George in. Then there's George, and Yogi says, you're late. George, I'm not late.

And then they went into a room and had their chat. They started yelling. I heard yelling. I heard George yelling. And I saw Carm go in the room.

And all of a sudden, the voices stopped. She wanted this reconciliation and she wasn't going to let somebody's ego get in the way. Mr. Barrack, Mr. Barra, you remember Mr.

Steinberg. And I apologize to him and I just hope he can accept my apology. It's over. It's over. It's behind us.

What was that like?

So that was Susan Waldman talking there at the beginning, and she was instrumental in mending the relationship between Grandpa and George. She just got on George's case and really appealed to him as a fan of baseball and kind of made him understand that he was depriving a generation of Yankee fans of seeing Grandpa at the ballpark on the old-timers days and depriving the Yankee players of getting to be with him and learn from him. And all George had to do was say he was sorry. Grandpa didn't care that he'd been fired in 1985. He cared that George had sent Clyde King, the assistant general manager, to do the firing.

And he thought George should have had enough respect for him to come down and tell him he was fired himself. And as soon as George said that he was sorry, Grandpa was like, okay. And he was back at the ballpark the very next day.

Now, I was not there at the museum that day. I was a senior in college. I was finishing up at school, but I was eagerly waiting by the phone to find out how that day went. And we all got to go back for Yogi Berray Day in 1999, and grandpa was at spring training that year, and for the next 13 or 14 years, and I say very often, that reconciliation with George and Grandpa's ability to go back to the ballpark and back to spring training and interact with players like Posada and Nick Swisher and Derek Jeter, Bernie Williams, those relationships just kept him young. I think he probably did.
