What controversial comments did Karoline Leavitt make about young workers?
Oh, snaps. What's up, everybody? Welcome to a brand new episode of Part of the Problem. I'm Dave Smith. He is Robbie the Fire Bernstein. How are you feeling today, my friend? I'm doing well.
Refreshed from being off yesterday, a full Fourth of July weekend. Had a nice time, so good to go.
Yeah, happy 4th. That's right. I think we haven't spoke since our fair country turned 250 years old. I hope everybody out there had a good 4th of July. Always a nice time. Man, it was hot.
How did the Fourth of July celebrations influence the discussion?
We got some hot weather over here on the East Coast. Where were you, Rob? Were you here? Were you...
I was up in Newport, Rhode Island, and it was rather hot, but I got real lucky because I'm never going to get off my ass and go to fireworks. It's just too annoying of an ordeal, and I don't like ordeals.
It's for children. Yes. It's for taking your children. For an adult, the firework is like, I mean, you watch one or two. It might be nice, but would you actually want to go somewhere and watch the whole firework show and come down a blanket, deal with the parking, getting in and out a porta potty, the whole thing.
I'm not doing any of it.
Yeah.
So this might be the first time in 25 years I got lucky. The place I was staying, like, boarded onto a park, and then they do in Newport the fireworks over the water.
What insights did Dave Smith share about his experience on Piers Morgan's show?
And I got to just walk outside of the rental unit I was in and be right there. But let me tell you, there's something really spectacular that I've not experienced in a long time, which is everyone gathering for something stupid. Like, it was, like, nice to see the crowds of people, like, getting in, everyone taking their seat, having a beer in hand. I'm like, this is beautiful.
yeah well there is something nice about it and and there is a weird uh you know i I thought, I guess I didn't, I was on Pierce Morgan the other day and I didn't, uh, it ended up just being one of those episodes where I, I, it wasn't that great of one in my opinion, but that happens sometimes. They're never going to all be great, but it's just like, I don't know. I just didn't really love the topics and I don't know. Um, but I mean, it was fine. I got a couple of good rounds out, but the day before I was on, they had out or maybe a couple of days before the big viral moment was, um, uh uh brianna what's her name brianna joy gray um who's like a um you know she's she's uh host the bad faith podcast and she's she's like an anti-war leftist uh type and so she was uh pierce is asking her like on this fourth of july are you proud to be an american and she was like well yeah i mean i'm proud of all the good stuff america's done but i'm not proud of all the bad stuff america's done
which like I thought was like a reasonable enough answer, you know, it's like kind of, yeah, I don't know. But, and then they all, of course, the other dummies on the panel are like, you'd be proud to be an American. And it's just such a funny, um, Anyway, I was prepared for them to ask me about that because 250 was one of the topics, but it never really came up. And I was on with the guy, Ben Ferguson, who was the guy who me and him had the viral back and forth where I said the U.S. military is the biggest terrorist organization or whatever. So I thought maybe that was going to come up. But anyway, I guess... It didn't.
Why did the clip of Brianna Joy Gray go viral?
But I thought of it as you're saying it, that it's very, you know, Frederick Bastiat wrote in his masterpiece, The Law, back in 1850. He wrote that the fundamental problem or maybe not the fundamental, but a major problem that socialists make is the conflation between society and the state. you know like just acting as if we are the people we are the one as if there's a but obviously that's really stupid it's not true like fucking donald trump in congress aren't what you're talking about when you're talking about watching people gathering for fireworks and there is something where and maybe it's just the time i grew up in the 80s and 90s as what for however much i hate uh our government, because that's what patriots do.
I do love Americana.
