00:00:00.170 --> 00:00:04.950
The Rush Hour with James Golden, entertaining and informative on
2
00:00:04.969 --> 00:00:06.889
the Red Apple Podcast Network.
3
00:00:07.790 --> 00:00:14.910
Our Constitution identifies what is most important. Our Constitution is
4
00:00:15.150 --> 00:00:19.379
relatively brief. If you compare our Constitution to some of
5
00:00:19.410 --> 00:00:23.160
the other constitutions adopted by foreign countries or to some
6
00:00:23.320 --> 00:00:29.269
state constitutions, Ours is like this. The others are like this.
7
00:00:29.370 --> 00:00:33.229
They go into great detail. Constitution doesn't do that. It
8
00:00:33.289 --> 00:00:35.170
focuses on the essentials.
9
00:00:37.439 --> 00:00:39.479
Groups on the left now saying it's time to reform
10
00:00:39.520 --> 00:00:41.619
the court. They need to either add justices. You guys
11
00:00:41.659 --> 00:00:42.979
need to be term limited. There needs to be an
12
00:00:43.079 --> 00:00:43.520
age limit.
13
00:00:44.100 --> 00:00:45.600
Do you all discuss those when.
14
00:00:45.539 --> 00:00:46.539
They come up publicly?
15
00:00:47.159 --> 00:00:50.479
We do not discuss it. I am concerned about that.
16
00:00:50.899 --> 00:00:54.219
There has been a concerted effort to intimidate the court.
17
00:00:54.969 --> 00:00:57.850
and justices on the court to try to influence us
18
00:00:58.009 --> 00:01:01.950
to decide cases differently from the way in which we
19
00:01:02.020 --> 00:01:08.840
have been deciding them. And I am concerned about the
20
00:01:08.879 --> 00:01:12.680
future of the court. I think it's an important institution.
21
00:01:12.859 --> 00:01:16.019
It has not always done the right thing, but I
22
00:01:16.079 --> 00:01:19.760
think on the whole, it has been fundamental in protecting
23
00:01:19.780 --> 00:01:25.349
our constitutional structure. and the rights that all Americans enjoy.
24
00:01:28.090 --> 00:01:33.650
That is Justice Samuel Alito, who was making the rounds
25
00:01:33.689 --> 00:01:35.950
this weekend. Not only was on Fox, he was on
26
00:01:36.150 --> 00:01:39.409
another network as well. I think it was Disgrace the
27
00:01:39.469 --> 00:01:43.560
Nation that he was on, on the CBS network. Face
28
00:01:43.599 --> 00:01:48.719
the Nation, Disgrace the Nation, same difference. Welcome to the
29
00:01:48.760 --> 00:01:51.280
Monday edition of Boston Early's Rush Hour, the fastest hour
30
00:01:51.500 --> 00:01:56.260
in American media. I asked Carlos at the beginning of
31
00:01:56.299 --> 00:02:00.659
the hour, so who's winning the football fantasy? And I
32
00:02:00.700 --> 00:02:03.980
wish I could do a good Carlos. There's a game
33
00:02:04.079 --> 00:02:07.500
on Monday. There's a game tonight. There's a game tonight.
34
00:02:08.340 --> 00:02:10.180
So as soon as he said, there's a game tonight,
35
00:02:10.800 --> 00:02:15.699
I said, okay, that must mean that, So who is, Carlos,
36
00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:20.639
who's winning the football fantasy? For now, it's Phil. But
37
00:02:20.659 --> 00:02:24.659
there's a game tonight. There's a game tonight. So this
38
00:02:24.699 --> 00:02:29.379
means tonight you can just come back from whatever losses
39
00:02:29.419 --> 00:02:32.430
that you've incurred and sweep it and become the winner.
40
00:02:32.819 --> 00:02:34.259
I mean, to be honest with you, I had a
41
00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:37.150
hard time keeping my people healthy and on the team
42
00:02:37.310 --> 00:02:42.310
than them scoring actual points. But because of a malfunction
43
00:02:42.349 --> 00:02:45.090
to the system we're playing at, Now I have more
44
00:02:45.169 --> 00:02:52.090
chances to win because the applications screwed over Phil pretty much.
45
00:02:52.150 --> 00:02:56.509
So out of his misfortune, I might have a chance
46
00:02:56.530 --> 00:02:56.849
to win.
47
00:02:58.479 --> 00:03:01.479
So you're counting on Phil being misfortunate in order for
48
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:01.849
you to win.
49
00:03:01.860 --> 00:03:04.560
You always count on other people being misfortunate when it
50
00:03:04.639 --> 00:03:05.379
comes to that game.
51
00:03:06.479 --> 00:03:11.879
This is the only way you win. A life lesson there,
52
00:03:11.919 --> 00:03:22.139
my friends. From Phil. You can take that to the bank. Yes. Okay,
53
00:03:22.180 --> 00:03:25.240
we have more from Justice Alito, ladies and gentlemen. And
54
00:03:25.259 --> 00:03:29.060
I also discussed with the team up there, with Phillip
55
00:03:29.139 --> 00:03:33.819
and with Phil and with Carlos, on Friday, perhaps we're
56
00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:41.090
going to do a women's only audio roster. We're undecided yet. Folks,
57
00:03:41.560 --> 00:03:48.520
they're raging. They are raging again. I'm trying to remember
58
00:03:48.560 --> 00:03:51.919
what it was before Lindsay Clancy that the women were
59
00:03:51.960 --> 00:03:54.849
raging about, because they were raging about something we had.
60
00:03:55.870 --> 00:03:57.969
And now I've forgotten what it was that was the
61
00:03:58.009 --> 00:04:01.050
big thing before Lindsay Clancy that they were raging about.
62
00:04:01.969 --> 00:04:04.389
And then came Lindsay Clancy, and that went into a
63
00:04:04.550 --> 00:04:08.939
month-long spiral rage that's still going on, by the way.
64
00:04:10.180 --> 00:04:16.110
It's just been overshadowed by this business, this unfortunate, ugly
65
00:04:16.350 --> 00:04:20.769
incident that happened at Ithaca, up in Ithaca at Cornell
66
00:04:22.050 --> 00:04:28.910
University in beautiful Ithaca, New York. Around 2 a.m. this morning,
67
00:04:29.089 --> 00:04:30.629
while many of you were sleeping.
68
00:04:40.949 --> 00:04:45.129
While Carlos was still trying to figure out his football dealie.
69
00:04:46.870 --> 00:04:55.060
Student activists painted messages condemning Cornell University on buildings there.
70
00:04:55.379 --> 00:05:00.740
They spray painted messages and they smashed the windows at
71
00:05:01.180 --> 00:05:08.759
Day Hall, which is the seat of the university's senior administrators.
72
00:05:12.040 --> 00:05:15.139
One of the messages that is painted in bright red
73
00:05:15.500 --> 00:05:21.360
on the outside of the building says the following. At Cornell,
74
00:05:22.459 --> 00:05:33.569
rapists are protected. Protesters are expelled. Another message that was
75
00:05:33.689 --> 00:05:42.810
left simply says smash the patriarchy. So I think you
76
00:05:42.829 --> 00:05:49.720
can tell where this is all headed. They are organizing
77
00:05:49.899 --> 00:05:58.240
for not anything to boost their academic performance up at Cornell.
78
00:05:59.620 --> 00:06:06.209
Organizers are now busy, ladies and gentlemen, gearing up for
79
00:06:06.350 --> 00:06:14.139
a week of protest. In support of the former classmate
80
00:06:15.800 --> 00:06:20.480
who alleges she was gang raped by seven chi-fi. Is
81
00:06:20.500 --> 00:06:25.149
that how you pronounce it? Chi-fi? Chi-fi? Chi-fi? Chi-fi?
82
00:06:25.810 --> 00:06:26.029
What?
83
00:06:26.089 --> 00:06:30.209
What is it? Chi. Why don't they just use a K?
84
00:06:31.790 --> 00:06:36.129
It's Greek. It's Greek. Oh. How do you feel about that, Carlos?
85
00:06:36.470 --> 00:06:38.839
I'm not a fan because.
86
00:06:39.379 --> 00:06:44.329
No, there's no because. I'm not a fan.
87
00:06:44.370 --> 00:06:44.810
Yeah.
88
00:06:45.629 --> 00:06:47.430
They just got a reason to party. I can find
89
00:06:47.449 --> 00:06:53.490
reasons to party by myself, you know? Ladies and gentlemen.
90
00:06:53.550 --> 00:06:57.959
In case you don't know it, Carlos is of Greek heritage.
91
00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:03.399
And he occasionally leaves us in here, abandons us to
92
00:07:03.439 --> 00:07:05.540
go back to Greece so that he can hang out
93
00:07:06.860 --> 00:07:09.120
and do what he does over there.
94
00:07:09.829 --> 00:07:11.430
Very serious matters to attend to.
95
00:07:12.769 --> 00:07:13.129
Serious.
96
00:07:17.310 --> 00:07:20.939
And so these Greek, I don't even know. Why are
97
00:07:21.500 --> 00:07:26.019
there Greek fraternities in the first place? What does this
98
00:07:26.180 --> 00:07:31.920
all mean, a Greek fraternity? Does anybody know here?
99
00:07:33.550 --> 00:07:33.759
No.
100
00:07:33.899 --> 00:07:36.649
How did this Greek business get started? How come they
101
00:07:36.670 --> 00:07:42.360
don't have Roman fraternities? How come they don't have, you know,
102
00:07:44.720 --> 00:07:49.170
Asian fraternities? How come they don't have, I don't know,
103
00:07:50.769 --> 00:07:58.310
Russian fraternities? Well, what do you mean, whoa, whoa, whoa?
104
00:07:58.509 --> 00:08:01.829
Or how about the poor Africans? Don't they get fraternities too?
105
00:08:03.269 --> 00:08:05.430
You know, I mean, we got seven continents in this world.
106
00:08:05.490 --> 00:08:09.699
Why don't the Greeks have the fraternities? How about an
107
00:08:09.779 --> 00:08:17.889
Italian fraternity? Can we have an Italian fraternity? Anyway, organizers
108
00:08:17.970 --> 00:08:19.990
are gearing up for a week of protest in support
109
00:08:20.009 --> 00:08:22.009
of a classmate who alleges she was gang raped by
110
00:08:22.050 --> 00:08:27.290
seven Chi Phi fraternity members in 2024. The accusers identified
111
00:08:27.310 --> 00:08:30.490
in court documents only as Jane Doe. She's suing the university.
112
00:08:30.509 --> 00:08:32.570
She's suing the sorority. She's suing the seven men she
113
00:08:32.610 --> 00:08:37.480
alleges assaulted her. The lawsuit sparked a national outcry over
114
00:08:37.500 --> 00:08:39.419
the handling. Boy, oh boy, did we have some of
115
00:08:39.470 --> 00:08:43.090
the outcry there today. And we will have more on Friday.
116
00:08:45.889 --> 00:08:53.169
A Cornell spokesman in relation to these students vandalizing the building,
117
00:08:53.250 --> 00:09:00.879
smashing windows, leaving messages at Cornell rapist protected protesters said,
118
00:09:02.419 --> 00:09:08.940
Rapists at Cornell, rapists are protected, protesters are expelled. Smash
119
00:09:09.019 --> 00:09:15.029
the patriarchy. You know, if the patriarchy is smashed, how
120
00:09:15.169 --> 00:09:22.070
is the matriarchy going to continue? I wonder about that.
121
00:09:22.269 --> 00:09:27.149
If we smash the patriarchy, whatever that means, I'm assuming
122
00:09:27.190 --> 00:09:33.000
that means abolish the patriarchy. What happens to the matriarchy?
123
00:09:33.019 --> 00:09:33.279
It takes.
124
00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:38.580
Over. It can't take over because you need both in
125
00:09:38.720 --> 00:09:41.350
order for there to be a patriarchy or a matriarchy.
126
00:09:41.370 --> 00:09:47.409
It's about one being in control. One being in control.
127
00:09:47.450 --> 00:09:47.710
Really?
128
00:09:49.669 --> 00:09:49.850
Yeah.
129
00:09:49.990 --> 00:09:57.929
Yeah, okay. Okay. Anyway, so there are going to be
130
00:09:57.950 --> 00:10:04.360
a week of protest up at cornell and we have
131
00:10:04.419 --> 00:10:06.580
more on that story too i tell you what we
132
00:10:06.620 --> 00:10:09.279
should do let's listen to samuel alito let's close the
133
00:10:09.320 --> 00:10:14.259
loop on that uh cut five this is justice alito
134
00:10:15.039 --> 00:10:18.179
You heard him say that in praise of our Constitution,
135
00:10:18.340 --> 00:10:24.330
one of the briefest, when he was saying it's like this,
136
00:10:24.389 --> 00:10:28.870
it's like that, our Constitution is not even a huge document.
137
00:10:28.970 --> 00:10:33.379
It's a small document compared to the Constitution. Focus is
138
00:10:33.429 --> 00:10:37.220
on the essentials, she said. He sounded the alarm on
139
00:10:37.240 --> 00:10:39.399
the leftists that are trying to rip apart the court
140
00:10:39.440 --> 00:10:44.039
with their endless smears and And so forth. Cut five.
141
00:10:44.100 --> 00:10:47.870
This is Justice Alito asked about the leak and other matters.
142
00:10:47.879 --> 00:10:52.690
Anticipated that it would anger a great many people.
143
00:10:52.710 --> 00:10:53.730
The Dobbs decision.
144
00:10:53.769 --> 00:10:57.230
Who believed and continue to believe strongly that there should
145
00:10:57.269 --> 00:11:01.149
be a constitutional right to abortion. So I understood that.
146
00:11:01.909 --> 00:11:04.639
I wasn't surprised that there was such a reaction. I
147
00:11:04.679 --> 00:11:09.639
didn't anticipate the particulars, what that would, the forms that
148
00:11:09.679 --> 00:11:14.129
that reaction would would take the most extreme forms. And
149
00:11:14.250 --> 00:11:17.840
I never dreamed that the draft of the opinion would
150
00:11:17.879 --> 00:11:23.240
be leaked. That was totally unprecedented in the history of
151
00:11:23.299 --> 00:11:27.360
the country. It was a grave breach of the trust
152
00:11:27.480 --> 00:11:32.639
that everybody who worked in this building had before that point.
153
00:11:33.100 --> 00:11:37.320
And it very predictably made the five of us in
154
00:11:37.340 --> 00:11:41.990
the majority targets for assassination. and nearly resulted in the
155
00:11:42.049 --> 00:11:44.350
assassination of my colleague Brett Kavanaugh.
156
00:11:45.269 --> 00:11:48.000
Do you have an opinion about who you think the
157
00:11:48.039 --> 00:11:48.600
leaker was?
158
00:11:49.220 --> 00:11:55.200
I do have an opinion, but the evidence available at
159
00:11:55.240 --> 00:11:59.299
this time is not strong enough for the court or
160
00:11:59.440 --> 00:12:02.850
for me to say this is the person who was responsible.
161
00:12:05.429 --> 00:12:07.840
Interesting. I wonder who, I wonder if we'll ever learn
162
00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:09.759
who the leaker was. Anyway, let's take a break now
163
00:12:09.799 --> 00:12:12.360
so we have some time on the other side. We
164
00:12:12.399 --> 00:12:15.820
have one more from Justice Alito regarding, by the way,
165
00:12:15.879 --> 00:12:19.080
the attacks. And he was trying, boy, I tell you,
166
00:12:19.100 --> 00:12:21.360
they were just trying to bait him to say something
167
00:12:21.419 --> 00:12:25.419
about Donald Trump. James Golden and Snerdley keep it right here.
168
00:12:25.519 --> 00:12:28.600
Both Snerdley's Rush Hour Fastest Hour in American Media continues.
169
00:12:28.620 --> 00:12:29.240
Don't go away.
170
00:12:29.399 --> 00:12:33.990
The Rush Hour with James Golden. Entertaining and informative.
171
00:12:34.110 --> 00:12:36.230
On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
172
00:12:36.279 --> 00:12:41.070
Guys, look at this.
173
00:12:41.230 --> 00:12:42.549
I was just looking at my degree.
174
00:12:43.610 --> 00:12:44.330
Bachelor.
175
00:12:45.210 --> 00:12:50.250
Bachelor as in bachelor as in man. Does that make
176
00:12:50.289 --> 00:12:51.669
anyone else pissed or is it just me?
177
00:12:55.779 --> 00:12:59.019
What are you looking stunned? Carlos, this is what I'm saying.
178
00:12:59.539 --> 00:13:01.909
On Friday, I think we're going to just do an
179
00:13:02.029 --> 00:13:07.149
hour of these women. Of women. Because this is the
180
00:13:07.190 --> 00:13:09.309
kind of... Play that again. Folks, this is what this
181
00:13:09.450 --> 00:13:12.149
one is upset about. It went by fast. So listen.
182
00:13:12.490 --> 00:13:17.899
She's a college graduate. And she got her degree. And
183
00:13:17.960 --> 00:13:21.940
now she's holding her degree as she says this.
184
00:13:22.500 --> 00:13:28.289
Guys, look at this. I was just looking at my degree. Bachelor. Bachelor,
185
00:13:28.370 --> 00:13:33.029
as in bachelor, as in man. Does that make anyone
186
00:13:33.090 --> 00:13:34.250
else pissed, or is it just me?
187
00:13:38.039 --> 00:13:40.860
She apparently has a Bachelor of Arts degree in something,
188
00:13:40.919 --> 00:13:52.929
and she's quote-unquote pissed because bachelor means man. So listen
189
00:13:52.990 --> 00:13:56.950
to the way that Justice Samuel Alito is. This was
190
00:13:57.070 --> 00:14:01.049
once this was on. I believe this one was on
191
00:14:01.769 --> 00:14:07.950
the CBS show, if I'm not mistaken. Maybe or maybe
192
00:14:07.970 --> 00:14:11.929
it's because he was on Fox. But listen, cut six.
193
00:14:12.009 --> 00:14:14.580
This is Samuel Alito. And listen, boy, to the way
194
00:14:14.629 --> 00:14:17.340
they try to goad him. Go ahead.
195
00:14:17.600 --> 00:14:20.740
When you have political leaders on both sides talking about
196
00:14:20.779 --> 00:14:23.360
the Supreme Court as though justices are just nothing more
197
00:14:23.379 --> 00:14:27.220
than political actors trying to deliver victory to their team,
198
00:14:27.990 --> 00:14:29.409
how damaging is that to the court?
199
00:14:31.710 --> 00:14:34.870
I think it's damaging. I think it can be quite damaging.
200
00:14:34.929 --> 00:14:38.429
There's been a great change in what presidents have said
201
00:14:38.629 --> 00:14:43.279
about the court when they are unhappy about our decisions. Traditionally,
202
00:14:43.740 --> 00:14:47.049
what presidents would say is, As the Supreme Court, it's
203
00:14:47.100 --> 00:14:50.759
made its decision. I disagree with it, but we have
204
00:14:50.799 --> 00:14:53.460
to abide by it. And that was it. That's what
205
00:14:53.519 --> 00:14:57.830
presidents said. That's what members of the cabinet said. That
206
00:14:57.870 --> 00:14:58.590
has changed.
207
00:14:59.009 --> 00:14:59.909
Did Trump change that?
208
00:15:01.299 --> 00:15:04.929
It's been bipartisan. It's a bipartisan effort.
209
00:15:05.710 --> 00:15:07.429
In terms of presidents, I mean, the language that we're
210
00:15:07.450 --> 00:15:11.480
hearing from President Trump is different, certainly with social media.
211
00:15:11.519 --> 00:15:14.480
He has his own way of saying things, but the
212
00:15:14.519 --> 00:15:17.009
criticism of the court... I mean, I want to be
213
00:15:17.090 --> 00:15:20.720
even handed on this. The criticism of the court by
214
00:15:20.750 --> 00:15:24.940
President Biden and justices by President Biden and his administration
215
00:15:25.500 --> 00:15:30.139
was very harsh. And President Trump has been very harsh.
216
00:15:30.340 --> 00:15:32.259
But, you know, when you when you see the president
217
00:15:32.279 --> 00:15:34.320
of the United States and you're saying you're following the law,
218
00:15:34.679 --> 00:15:36.990
whichever way it leads you. But when you see the
219
00:15:37.029 --> 00:15:41.330
president of the United States talking about you and some
220
00:15:41.370 --> 00:15:44.830
of your colleagues as being part of his political MAGA
221
00:15:44.870 --> 00:15:47.389
movement that you're trying to make America great again, does
222
00:15:47.409 --> 00:15:48.059
that bother you?
223
00:15:49.100 --> 00:15:53.159
Well, we are not part of any political movement, and
224
00:15:53.179 --> 00:15:59.529
we are not attempting to further any political agenda. We
225
00:15:59.570 --> 00:16:03.899
are trying to Interpret the Constitution as best we can
226
00:16:04.120 --> 00:16:06.350
and apply it in the cases that come before us.
227
00:16:08.070 --> 00:16:11.250
When you see Trump, when Trump, Trump trying to say,
228
00:16:11.450 --> 00:16:15.690
he said it's been both. But no, got to blame Trump.
229
00:16:15.710 --> 00:16:18.370
We'll be back, folks. We have so much more to say.
230
00:16:28.320 --> 00:16:29.539
I actually want men to shut the * * *
231
00:16:29.480 --> 00:16:31.879
* up. I want a full media blackout for men.
232
00:16:31.919 --> 00:16:33.259
I don't want to see any more content for an
233
00:16:33.299 --> 00:16:36.539
entire week from men, okay? And if you really, really
234
00:16:36.799 --> 00:16:38.450
want to post some * * * * content, then
235
00:16:38.470 --> 00:16:40.769
it better be a full-ass research paper on all the
236
00:16:40.809 --> 00:16:43.570
factors that contributed to the Cornell 7, okay? Maybe a
237
00:16:43.570 --> 00:16:45.429
full-ass research paper on all the factors that led to
238
00:16:45.450 --> 00:16:47.730
the Gisele Pelico case. Oh, you haven't heard of that case?
239
00:16:47.929 --> 00:16:50.269
You should. If you gave a * * * *, you.
240
00:16:50.149 --> 00:16:54.679
Would be following women's news, okay? I don't want to
241
00:16:54.720 --> 00:16:57.279
hear anything from a man unless it's a full accounting
242
00:16:57.320 --> 00:16:59.940
of all the men in his life and recognizing some
243
00:16:59.960 --> 00:17:01.940
of the red flags that you might have skipped over
244
00:17:02.039 --> 00:17:04.339
because you saw them reflected back in yourself. And to
245
00:17:04.359 --> 00:17:07.190
hold him accountable would require you to hold yourself accountable
246
00:17:07.289 --> 00:17:08.289
and then change.
247
00:17:08.390 --> 00:17:09.369
And that would just be.
248
00:17:09.470 --> 00:17:10.269
No, no, no.
249
00:17:10.529 --> 00:17:11.650
That's inconvenient, okay?
250
00:17:12.150 --> 00:17:16.289
I want to hear a full counting of how you
251
00:17:16.849 --> 00:17:19.230
are working on yourself and how you're going to show
252
00:17:19.259 --> 00:17:21.920
up in the world differently to contribute to taking.
253
00:17:21.680 --> 00:17:22.440
Down rape culture.
254
00:17:22.859 --> 00:17:24.319
And I want to hear what it's costing you.
255
00:17:24.900 --> 00:17:25.500
Anything else?
256
00:17:25.619 --> 00:17:33.940
Just go ahead and shut the up for me. Okay. Folks,
257
00:17:34.279 --> 00:17:37.259
we have enough for shows of these women. They're out.
258
00:17:38.380 --> 00:17:43.049
They're loaded for bear. Okay. Let's get to it. This
259
00:17:43.150 --> 00:17:48.069
Cornell business, ladies and gentlemen, both ABC and everybody's done
260
00:17:48.309 --> 00:17:53.500
the packages on this. But I think the package that
261
00:17:53.599 --> 00:17:59.599
came from ABC are kind of, well, just listen to them.
262
00:18:01.049 --> 00:18:04.390
Cut 12, this is ABC News, and listen to this
263
00:18:04.430 --> 00:18:07.630
package that they did on the Cornell rape situation.
264
00:18:07.690 --> 00:18:10.099
ABC News has obtained a recording of a phone call
265
00:18:10.140 --> 00:18:13.180
between Jane Doe and the fraternity brother she went to
266
00:18:13.259 --> 00:18:16.339
see the night she was allegedly attacked. The call appears
267
00:18:16.400 --> 00:18:18.599
to show that he was trying to convince her he
268
00:18:18.660 --> 00:18:20.809
meant no harm, and she consented.
269
00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:24.849
You want me to give my recollection of the entire night?
270
00:18:25.089 --> 00:18:27.849
Three weeks after her traumatic night at the Chi Phi house,
271
00:18:27.910 --> 00:18:30.730
a then Cornell student now known as Jane Doe called
272
00:18:30.809 --> 00:18:33.930
Matthew Ingalls, the friend who invited her to the fraternity
273
00:18:33.970 --> 00:18:37.369
that night, recording the entire conversation. She told him she
274
00:18:37.390 --> 00:18:40.089
spent time in the emergency room and in therapy because
275
00:18:40.130 --> 00:18:42.869
there's so much damage on my body and my brain.
276
00:18:43.029 --> 00:18:45.009
She said, if I wanted to take this somewhere, what
277
00:18:45.049 --> 00:18:47.930
y'all did would be classified as gang rape. You already
278
00:18:47.970 --> 00:18:50.430
knew when I came in, I was 10 shots deep.
279
00:18:50.950 --> 00:18:58.500
Ingalls responded with a different recollection. Jane Doe said she
280
00:18:58.539 --> 00:19:01.200
was 100% sure she told him she had been at
281
00:19:01.240 --> 00:19:04.039
a bar for a sorority event, and I never lie.
282
00:19:04.299 --> 00:19:06.299
She asked him how they ended up in a threesome
283
00:19:06.319 --> 00:19:07.420
with one of his frat brothers.
284
00:19:11.470 --> 00:19:15.339
We start dancing for, like, maybe three to five minutes,
285
00:19:15.579 --> 00:19:16.920
and then I pop the question.
286
00:19:17.680 --> 00:19:18.500
You say yes.
287
00:19:18.900 --> 00:19:21.799
Then I remember, like, we didn't know who else to bring,
288
00:19:21.900 --> 00:19:22.380
so I go.
289
00:19:22.359 --> 00:19:23.549
Up to * * * *.
290
00:19:23.220 --> 00:19:26.180
Who was on the dance floor, too, and I pop
291
00:19:26.220 --> 00:19:29.420
the question, and he's like, yeah, and then we go upstairs.
292
00:19:29.839 --> 00:19:32.299
Jane Doe then asking for his help to identify all
293
00:19:32.319 --> 00:19:34.759
of the men, saying she remembered four in the bed
294
00:19:34.940 --> 00:19:37.940
and more standing around the room. Ingalls seemed to suggest
295
00:19:38.099 --> 00:19:40.000
both of their memories may not be accurate.
296
00:19:40.640 --> 00:19:44.809
I have racked my brain for this mystery. You know,
297
00:19:44.910 --> 00:19:47.440
it's possible that both of us like, remember this and
298
00:19:47.480 --> 00:19:48.140
it's not true.
299
00:19:48.480 --> 00:19:51.819
Jane Doe pushed back, saying, no, because I remember looking
300
00:19:51.900 --> 00:19:54.220
up and being like, that is too many people. She
301
00:19:54.259 --> 00:19:56.400
then asked, do you remember how any of these guys
302
00:19:56.440 --> 00:19:56.900
walked in?
303
00:19:56.920 --> 00:19:58.400
The party was sort.
304
00:19:58.220 --> 00:20:02.690
Of, like, crowded, so people started, like, um.
305
00:20:04.309 --> 00:20:06.250
Building up the balcony just because there was nowhere else
306
00:20:06.289 --> 00:20:06.609
to go.
307
00:20:07.029 --> 00:20:09.670
Ingalls did not mention that during the incident, he posted
308
00:20:09.710 --> 00:20:12.119
to a group on Snapchat a photo of her in
309
00:20:12.160 --> 00:20:15.759
bed and an invitation to his fraternity brothers, saying, boys,
310
00:20:15.880 --> 00:20:19.140
come whip it out. Cornell expelled Ingalls and another student
311
00:20:19.240 --> 00:20:22.740
and suspended two others. In this video obtained by ABC News,
312
00:20:22.880 --> 00:20:25.720
Cornell police inform one of the suspended students he is
313
00:20:25.900 --> 00:20:38.140
unwelcome on campus. All seven fraternity brothers have denied wrongdoing.
314
00:20:38.400 --> 00:20:41.319
Ingalls has not responded to Jane Doe's lawsuit, but during
315
00:20:41.380 --> 00:20:44.910
Cornell's internal investigation, he said he was too intoxicated to
316
00:20:44.970 --> 00:20:48.210
consent and suggested Jane Doe assaulted him.
317
00:20:51.150 --> 00:20:54.589
Yeah, that's not going over well, by the way, on
318
00:20:54.690 --> 00:21:00.059
social media with the women crowd. The idea that he
319
00:21:00.119 --> 00:21:04.539
was too intoxicated to give his consent and he was
320
00:21:04.599 --> 00:21:09.839
the victim. As you can imagine, that is just simply
321
00:21:09.880 --> 00:21:13.619
not going well. Here's another report, ladies and gentlemen. Go
322
00:21:13.660 --> 00:21:16.119
to Cut 13. The week after at Cornell. Prestigious.
323
00:21:29.970 --> 00:21:32.430
University's president is speaking out for the first time in
324
00:21:32.450 --> 00:21:36.759
a video message, promising a transparent investigation while acknowledging that
325
00:21:36.799 --> 00:21:39.779
the school, in his words, must do better. It comes
326
00:21:39.839 --> 00:21:41.900
as The New York Times reports on how the seven
327
00:21:41.940 --> 00:21:45.599
fraternity members, Jane Doe's alleged attackers, were disciplined by the
328
00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:48.859
school to were expelled. Late last week, New York's governor
329
00:21:48.900 --> 00:21:52.119
named the state's attorney general as a special prosecutor, taking
330
00:21:52.140 --> 00:21:54.490
the investigation out of the hands of a local district
331
00:21:54.529 --> 00:21:58.910
attorney who decided not to file criminal charges in 2024.
332
00:21:58.910 --> 00:22:01.970
All of the men have denied any wrongdoing. ABC's Olivia
333
00:22:02.009 --> 00:22:02.930
Rubin leads us off.
334
00:22:04.150 --> 00:22:07.230
Weeks after a former student sued Cornell, alleging she was
335
00:22:07.309 --> 00:22:10.740
gang raped and drugged by fraternity brothers and the university
336
00:22:10.799 --> 00:22:14.099
failed to protect her. Now the school's president is speaking out.
337
00:22:14.480 --> 00:22:18.890
I believe we as an administration and we as a community.
338
00:22:19.740 --> 00:22:21.099
Must do better.
339
00:22:21.519 --> 00:22:25.029
Michael Kotlikoff calling out party culture on campus.
340
00:22:25.289 --> 00:22:31.539
It raises heartbreaking and troubling issues about sexual assault, dehumanization,
341
00:22:32.279 --> 00:22:35.220
and aspects of party culture, alcohol, drugs.
342
00:22:35.819 --> 00:22:39.160
This as new details emerged tonight about how exactly the
343
00:22:39.339 --> 00:22:43.480
Ivy League University disciplined those seven Chi Phi fraternity members
344
00:22:43.900 --> 00:22:47.619
Jane Doe accused in 2024 of sexually assaulting her. We're
345
00:22:47.660 --> 00:22:50.420
learning for the first time the punishment for those seven
346
00:22:50.460 --> 00:22:55.009
men after the university launched an internal investigation. According to
347
00:22:55.029 --> 00:22:58.250
the New York Times, the school expelled the two fraternity
348
00:22:58.269 --> 00:23:01.569
members who first invited Jane Doe to that house and
349
00:23:01.609 --> 00:23:05.309
sent these Snapchat messages inviting others to the room. The
350
00:23:05.349 --> 00:23:08.269
two others who Jane Doe claims forced her to perform
351
00:23:08.349 --> 00:23:11.710
sex acts without her consent were suspended for two years
352
00:23:11.829 --> 00:23:15.839
and three semesters each and ordered to write reflection papers.
353
00:23:16.099 --> 00:23:19.720
Another student who graduated accused of forcibly kissing Jane Doe
354
00:23:19.980 --> 00:23:23.359
barred from campus. and the remaining two men accused of
355
00:23:23.519 --> 00:23:26.759
entering the room where the alleged assault occurred ordered in
356
00:23:26.819 --> 00:23:30.680
part to study sexual harassment and write those reflection papers.
357
00:23:31.079 --> 00:23:35.160
No criminal charges were ever filed. The district attorney declining
358
00:23:35.220 --> 00:23:38.619
to prosecute after he said campus police only sent him
359
00:23:38.660 --> 00:23:42.329
a six-page summary of Jane Doe's allegations, which her attorney
360
00:23:42.349 --> 00:23:45.349
says omitted her explicit allegation of rape.
361
00:23:45.529 --> 00:23:48.329
If you have a complaining witness saying, I'm 100% certain
362
00:23:48.369 --> 00:23:48.670
I was raped.
363
00:23:50.809 --> 00:23:52.730
That should make it into a report.
364
00:23:52.910 --> 00:23:56.390
But now, in a memo from November 2024 reviewed by
365
00:23:56.490 --> 00:24:00.329
ABC News, an investigator from Cornell said that the DA's
366
00:24:00.430 --> 00:24:04.349
office declined to review more evidence gathered by police. The
367
00:24:04.369 --> 00:24:07.349
DA saying Cornell didn't share all the materials.
368
00:24:07.549 --> 00:24:08.450
It was not complete.
369
00:24:09.019 --> 00:24:11.680
It was stick your head in the sand and don't
370
00:24:11.700 --> 00:24:12.680
look to find a crime.
371
00:24:12.900 --> 00:24:15.859
The state of New York launching a new criminal investigation.
372
00:24:16.019 --> 00:24:20.720
Governor Kathy Hochul tapping Attorney General Letitia James, a special prosecutor.
373
00:24:21.000 --> 00:24:21.880
I want the truth.
374
00:24:22.079 --> 00:24:24.140
How is this woman denied justice?
375
00:24:24.500 --> 00:24:27.960
As women around the country flood social media in support
376
00:24:28.000 --> 00:24:31.359
of Jane Doe, writing, I am Jane Doe, sharing their
377
00:24:31.420 --> 00:24:36.240
own stories of sexual assault and harassment. Lindsay, all seven
378
00:24:36.279 --> 00:24:39.019
of those men deny wrongdoing, one of them filing a
379
00:24:39.099 --> 00:24:43.039
lawsuit against Cornell looking to overturn that disciplinary decision and
380
00:24:43.140 --> 00:24:46.519
have his record expunged. Now, a judge has already denied
381
00:24:46.559 --> 00:24:50.349
that lawsuit, but his attorney appealing, telling ABC News tonight
382
00:24:50.400 --> 00:24:54.190
their efforts are for every student whose future Cornell puts
383
00:24:54.250 --> 00:24:54.789
in jeopardy.
384
00:24:55.009 --> 00:24:55.309
Lindsay.
385
00:24:55.630 --> 00:24:56.430
Olivia, thank you.
386
00:24:59.390 --> 00:25:02.549
There was a lot to unpack there, but how do
387
00:25:02.569 --> 00:25:10.240
you like that idea? Of writing reflection papers. Okay. So you.
388
00:25:12.420 --> 00:25:12.819
You are.
389
00:25:12.980 --> 00:25:14.220
Alleged to have.
390
00:25:14.700 --> 00:25:14.960
Had.
391
00:25:16.380 --> 00:25:23.650
Sexual contact with a woman. Allegedly. Without consent. Which by
392
00:25:23.690 --> 00:25:27.150
the way. Is a crime. Just so we're clear on that.
393
00:25:28.109 --> 00:25:31.630
Now the issue was. Did she have consent or not.
394
00:25:31.730 --> 00:25:34.839
And we'll see. I, by the way, I don't trust
395
00:25:34.859 --> 00:25:37.599
Letitia James to run a fair investigation. She already said
396
00:25:37.619 --> 00:25:40.140
that she sympathizes with the victim in this. So how
397
00:25:40.160 --> 00:25:41.720
are these guys going to get a fair shake from
398
00:25:41.740 --> 00:25:44.440
Letitia James? I don't think that's going to happen, but
399
00:25:44.480 --> 00:25:49.099
at any rate, the university, okay. Why don't you go
400
00:25:49.200 --> 00:25:59.880
and write a reflection paper? What the, I'm sorry. I
401
00:25:59.900 --> 00:26:02.920
was busy. I'm, If I use that word, I'd have
402
00:26:02.960 --> 00:26:11.740
to write my own reflection paper. Moving on, ladies and gentlemen.
403
00:26:12.880 --> 00:26:16.789
Cut 14. Other news about another woman in another state
404
00:26:16.950 --> 00:26:19.190
and definitely another state of consciousness.
405
00:26:20.569 --> 00:26:23.910
Krista Pike is still alive, unconscious and on a ventilator,
406
00:26:23.950 --> 00:26:26.980
her lawyer says, as hospital staff work to clear her
407
00:26:27.039 --> 00:26:30.720
system of two pentobarbital doses, the drug that was supposed
408
00:26:30.740 --> 00:26:31.539
to end her life.
409
00:26:31.960 --> 00:26:34.039
It may still be a long time before she's able
410
00:26:34.079 --> 00:26:34.920
to participate in.
411
00:26:35.029 --> 00:26:36.009
The legal process.
412
00:26:36.170 --> 00:26:38.890
Pike's attorney says even if she wakes up, her future
413
00:26:38.970 --> 00:26:39.609
is unclear.
414
00:26:40.109 --> 00:26:42.130
The least that could happen now is that we at
415
00:26:42.150 --> 00:26:44.950
least take death off the table and start looking for
416
00:26:45.390 --> 00:26:48.190
what the future could be for her. And we're certainly
417
00:26:48.450 --> 00:26:51.730
willing to discuss that with the governor, with whoever could
418
00:26:51.779 --> 00:26:52.650
make that decision.
419
00:26:53.019 --> 00:26:55.420
Tennessee Governor Bill Lee has put all of the state's
420
00:26:55.500 --> 00:26:58.359
executions on hold through the end of the year. His
421
00:26:58.420 --> 00:27:03.420
final term ends mid-January. Republican Senator and gubernatorial nominee Marsha
422
00:27:03.460 --> 00:27:06.140
Blackburn vowed to bring back the electric chair and deliver
423
00:27:06.200 --> 00:27:10.700
justice if elected. Meanwhile, her Democratic opponent, Jerry Green, opposes
424
00:27:10.759 --> 00:27:15.000
the death penalty altogether. Pike's botched execution was Tennessee's second
425
00:27:15.039 --> 00:27:18.630
this year under State Correction Commissioner Frank Strada, who announced
426
00:27:18.690 --> 00:27:23.150
his resignation Saturday. Before Pike, seven U.S. inmates had survived
427
00:27:23.230 --> 00:27:27.809
execution attempts since 2009. Two were later executed, three died
428
00:27:27.869 --> 00:27:31.009
on death row, and two remain alive. Pike is the
429
00:27:31.150 --> 00:27:34.670
first woman known to survive an execution attempt. Her case
430
00:27:34.730 --> 00:27:38.609
is unprecedented because she survived after receiving the lethal drugs.
431
00:27:39.150 --> 00:27:39.930
So far as we know.
432
00:27:41.119 --> 00:27:46.140
The Department of Correction followed exactly the protocol as outlined.
433
00:27:46.400 --> 00:27:49.339
Pike has been on death row for more than 30 years.
434
00:27:49.759 --> 00:27:53.380
She was convicted of brutally torturing and murdering her classmate,
435
00:27:53.400 --> 00:27:54.589
19-year-old Colleen Slemmer.
436
00:27:54.960 --> 00:27:58.089
One thing I can tell you that isn't justice for
437
00:27:58.150 --> 00:28:02.509
Colleen's family was coming up for an emotional event and
438
00:28:02.750 --> 00:28:06.390
for Krista Pike to be left so far in a
439
00:28:06.430 --> 00:28:10.579
state of unconsciousness I don't know that that's justice for anybody.
440
00:28:10.819 --> 00:28:13.710
Pike's lawyers are now calling on Governor Lee to commute
441
00:28:13.759 --> 00:28:15.680
her death sentence to life in prison.
442
00:28:17.940 --> 00:28:20.480
And there you have the latest on Krista Pike. One
443
00:28:20.599 --> 00:28:25.980
other thing, if you were out partying in Vienna, Georgia,
444
00:28:27.119 --> 00:28:29.920
you know, they had a block party in Vienna, Georgia.
445
00:28:30.559 --> 00:28:33.640
Cut 17. Here's the result of you go out for
446
00:28:33.660 --> 00:28:35.640
a block party on the weekend and you're in a
447
00:28:35.680 --> 00:28:37.299
certain neighborhood. This is what happened.
448
00:28:37.319 --> 00:28:40.700
Two people are dead in South Georgia and dozens are
449
00:28:40.740 --> 00:28:43.450
wounded after a mass shooting at a neighborhood block party
450
00:28:43.589 --> 00:28:44.450
early Sunday.
451
00:28:44.970 --> 00:28:46.029
The Dooley County.
452
00:28:45.809 --> 00:28:49.170
Sheriff says more than 1,000 people were gathered when more
453
00:28:49.210 --> 00:28:53.569
than 50 shots were fired. Most of the 35 injured victims,
454
00:28:53.630 --> 00:28:56.950
some as young as 14 years old. suffered gunshot wounds,
455
00:28:56.990 --> 00:29:00.130
while several others were hit by cars or sustained other
456
00:29:00.190 --> 00:29:05.190
injuries as people fled. A 21-year-old and a 23-year-old were
457
00:29:05.250 --> 00:29:08.829
both pronounced dead at the scene. No arrests have been
458
00:29:08.849 --> 00:29:09.329
made yet.
459
00:29:11.269 --> 00:29:15.579
There you go, Vienna, Georgia. Let's hang out for a
460
00:29:15.619 --> 00:29:20.140
black party. When we get back, we have Clip of

00:29:20.160 --> 00:29:24.009
the Day. Folks, tomorrow we're going to spend some time
462
00:29:24.089 --> 00:29:26.190
on the midterms as well. We had a lot of
463
00:29:26.230 --> 00:29:28.859
cuts today, but you know, time constraints and all that.
464
00:29:30.380 --> 00:29:35.039
Harry Enten, Byron Donalds on the governor's race in Florida,
465
00:29:36.569 --> 00:29:39.970
did a great interview. He was asked if he was running.
466
00:29:40.250 --> 00:29:45.599
away from donald trump that's the media spin of larry
467
00:29:45.630 --> 00:29:51.380
cudlow interviewed him and of course and then there's the
468
00:29:51.400 --> 00:30:00.380

The Rush Hour with James Golden. Entertaining and informative. On
471
00:30:07.779 --> 00:30:09.759
the Red Apple Podcast Network.
472
00:30:13.539 --> 00:30:18.119
The Clip of the Day. You want to hear it.
473
00:30:18.200 --> 00:30:23.220
It's the Clip of the Day. Ladies and gentlemen, we
474
00:30:23.240 --> 00:30:28.730
go to an event called Hands Off Our Vote. And
475
00:30:28.789 --> 00:30:32.740
there we find one of the foremost Hollywood actors of
476
00:30:32.799 --> 00:30:39.559
the left, Robert De Niro, addressing the crowd. Here is Mr.
477
00:30:39.779 --> 00:30:40.460
De Niro.
478
00:30:40.799 --> 00:30:44.529
When masked and armed ice thugs stalk our polling places, what.
479
00:30:44.460 --> 00:30:45.369
Do we say to them?
480
00:30:46.150 --> 00:30:48.569
Keep your hands off our vote.
481
00:30:49.430 --> 00:30:54.789
And when that coward, that piece of shit, Donald Trump
482
00:30:55.349 --> 00:30:58.269
tries to take our voice and power away.
483
00:30:58.650 --> 00:30:59.690
What do we tell him?
484
00:31:01.680 --> 00:31:03.460
Hands off our vote.
485
00:31:12.059 --> 00:31:13.269
I think they got the message.
486
00:31:15.089 --> 00:31:17.930
Now, with your commitment and support, we won't just send
487
00:31:17.950 --> 00:31:18.609
them a message.
488
00:31:18.950 --> 00:31:27.660
We're going to send them away. Take back the House. Yes.
489
00:31:29.500 --> 00:31:33.230
Take back the Senate. Yes. Take back the power.
490
00:31:34.309 --> 00:31:34.569
Yes.
491
00:31:34.849 --> 00:31:36.089
Take back our country.
492
00:31:36.769 --> 00:31:37.069
Yes.
493
00:31:38.049 --> 00:31:44.740
Thank you. Yeah. Take back the House. Take back the Senate.
494
00:31:45.720 --> 00:31:46.099
Yeah.
495
00:31:46.380 --> 00:31:53.970
Take back the country. We're going to leave it today.
496
00:31:53.990 --> 00:31:56.210
And there's so many things we didn't get to today,
497
00:31:56.269 --> 00:31:59.079
by the way, the formation of the Jimi Hendrix experience,
498
00:32:00.380 --> 00:32:03.500
which was of course, uh, monumental in the music world.
499
00:32:04.160 --> 00:32:07.059
Beyonce was on top of the charts with baby boy.
500
00:32:07.180 --> 00:32:10.789
Sabrina Carpenter had a great run on this day. Espresso, please, please.
501
00:32:10.869 --> 00:32:14.869
All that first woman in billboard history to chart three
502
00:32:14.890 --> 00:32:17.750
of her singles. But on this day, one of the
503
00:32:17.910 --> 00:32:21.799
voices of the 1960s, the temptations, uh, Shared the lead
504
00:32:21.839 --> 00:32:26.380
with David Ruffin. Eddie Kendricks passed away. Eddie Kendricks went
505
00:32:26.420 --> 00:32:28.630
on to have a brilliant solo career. I met him
506
00:32:28.670 --> 00:32:32.670
at Radio City Music. And this is one of his
507
00:32:32.710 --> 00:32:39.920
hits that I love so much. All men don't discriminate, baby.
508
00:32:42.880 --> 00:32:47.750
May God bless. Each and every single one of you,

What the heck is going on here?
1
00:00:00.170 --> 00:00:04.950
The Rush Hour with James Golden, entertaining and informative on
2
00:00:04.969 --> 00:00:06.889
the Red Apple Podcast Network.
3
00:00:07.790 --> 00:00:14.910
Our Constitution identifies what is most important. Our Constitution is
4
00:00:15.150 --> 00:00:19.379
relatively brief. If you compare our Constitution to some of
5
00:00:19.410 --> 00:00:23.160
the other constitutions adopted by foreign countries or to some
6
00:00:23.320 --> 00:00:29.269
state constitutions, Ours is like this. The others are like this.
7
00:00:29.370 --> 00:00:33.229
They go into great detail. Constitution doesn't do that. It
8
00:00:33.289 --> 00:00:35.170
focuses on the essentials.
9
00:00:37.439 --> 00:00:39.479
Groups on the left now saying it's time to reform
10
00:00:39.520 --> 00:00:41.619
the court. They need to either add justices. You guys
11
00:00:41.659 --> 00:00:42.979
need to be term limited. There needs to be an
12
00:00:43.079 --> 00:00:43.520
age limit.
13
00:00:44.100 --> 00:00:45.600
Do you all discuss those when.
14
00:00:45.539 --> 00:00:46.539
They come up publicly?
15
00:00:47.159 --> 00:00:50.479
We do not discuss it. I am concerned about that.
16
00:00:50.899 --> 00:00:54.219
There has been a concerted effort to intimidate the court.
17
00:00:54.969 --> 00:00:57.850
and justices on the court to try to influence us
18
00:00:58.009 --> 00:01:01.950
to decide cases differently from the way in which we
19
00:01:02.020 --> 00:01:08.840
have been deciding them. And I am concerned about the
20
00:01:08.879 --> 00:01:12.680
future of the court. I think it's an important institution.
21
00:01:12.859 --> 00:01:16.019
It has not always done the right thing, but I
22
00:01:16.079 --> 00:01:19.760
think on the whole, it has been fundamental in protecting
23
00:01:19.780 --> 00:01:25.349
our constitutional structure. and the rights that all Americans enjoy.
24
00:01:28.090 --> 00:01:33.650
That is Justice Samuel Alito, who was making the rounds
25
00:01:33.689 --> 00:01:35.950
this weekend. Not only was on Fox, he was on
26
00:01:36.150 --> 00:01:39.409
another network as well. I think it was Disgrace the
27
00:01:39.469 --> 00:01:43.560
Nation that he was on, on the CBS network. Face
28
00:01:43.599 --> 00:01:48.719
the Nation, Disgrace the Nation, same difference. Welcome to the
29
00:01:48.760 --> 00:01:51.280
Monday edition of Boston Early's Rush Hour, the fastest hour
30
00:01:51.500 --> 00:01:56.260
in American media. I asked Carlos at the beginning of
31
00:01:56.299 --> 00:02:00.659
the hour, so who's winning the football fantasy? And I
32
00:02:00.700 --> 00:02:03.980
wish I could do a good Carlos. There's a game
33
00:02:04.079 --> 00:02:07.500
on Monday. There's a game tonight. There's a game tonight.
34
00:02:08.340 --> 00:02:10.180
So as soon as he said, there's a game tonight,
35
00:02:10.800 --> 00:02:15.699
I said, okay, that must mean that, So who is, Carlos,
36
00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:20.639
who's winning the football fantasy? For now, it's Phil. But
37
00:02:20.659 --> 00:02:24.659
there's a game tonight. There's a game tonight. So this
38
00:02:24.699 --> 00:02:29.379
means tonight you can just come back from whatever losses
39
00:02:29.419 --> 00:02:32.430
that you've incurred and sweep it and become the winner.
40
00:02:32.819 --> 00:02:34.259
I mean, to be honest with you, I had a
41
00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:37.150
hard time keeping my people healthy and on the team
42
00:02:37.310 --> 00:02:42.310
than them scoring actual points. But because of a malfunction
43
00:02:42.349 --> 00:02:45.090
to the system we're playing at, Now I have more
44
00:02:45.169 --> 00:02:52.090
chances to win because the applications screwed over Phil pretty much.
45
00:02:52.150 --> 00:02:56.509
So out of his misfortune, I might have a chance
46
00:02:56.530 --> 00:02:56.849
to win.
47
00:02:58.479 --> 00:03:01.479
So you're counting on Phil being misfortunate in order for
48
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:01.849
you to win.
49
00:03:01.860 --> 00:03:04.560
You always count on other people being misfortunate when it
50
00:03:04.639 --> 00:03:05.379
comes to that game.
51
00:03:06.479 --> 00:03:11.879
This is the only way you win. A life lesson there,
52
00:03:11.919 --> 00:03:22.139
my friends. From Phil. You can take that to the bank. Yes. Okay,
53
00:03:22.180 --> 00:03:25.240
we have more from Justice Alito, ladies and gentlemen. And
54
00:03:25.259 --> 00:03:29.060
I also discussed with the team up there, with Phillip
55
00:03:29.139 --> 00:03:33.819
and with Phil and with Carlos, on Friday, perhaps we're
56
00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:41.090
going to do a women's only audio roster. We're undecided yet. Folks,
57
00:03:41.560 --> 00:03:48.520
they're raging. They are raging again. I'm trying to remember
58
00:03:48.560 --> 00:03:51.919
what it was before Lindsay Clancy that the women were
59
00:03:51.960 --> 00:03:54.849
raging about, because they were raging about something we had.
60
00:03:55.870 --> 00:03:57.969
And now I've forgotten what it was that was the
61
00:03:58.009 --> 00:04:01.050
big thing before Lindsay Clancy that they were raging about.
62
00:04:01.969 --> 00:04:04.389
And then came Lindsay Clancy, and that went into a
63
00:04:04.550 --> 00:04:08.939
month-long spiral rage that's still going on, by the way.
64
00:04:10.180 --> 00:04:16.110
It's just been overshadowed by this business, this unfortunate, ugly
65
00:04:16.350 --> 00:04:20.769
incident that happened at Ithaca, up in Ithaca at Cornell
66
00:04:22.050 --> 00:04:28.910
University in beautiful Ithaca, New York. Around 2 a.m. this morning,
67
00:04:29.089 --> 00:04:30.629
while many of you were sleeping.
68
00:04:40.949 --> 00:04:45.129
While Carlos was still trying to figure out his football dealie.
69
00:04:46.870 --> 00:04:55.060
Student activists painted messages condemning Cornell University on buildings there.
70
00:04:55.379 --> 00:05:00.740
They spray painted messages and they smashed the windows at
71
00:05:01.180 --> 00:05:08.759
Day Hall, which is the seat of the university's senior administrators.
72
00:05:12.040 --> 00:05:15.139
One of the messages that is painted in bright red
73
00:05:15.500 --> 00:05:21.360
on the outside of the building says the following. At Cornell,
74
00:05:22.459 --> 00:05:33.569
rapists are protected. Protesters are expelled. Another message that was
75
00:05:33.689 --> 00:05:42.810
left simply says smash the patriarchy. So I think you
76
00:05:42.829 --> 00:05:49.720
can tell where this is all headed. They are organizing
77
00:05:49.899 --> 00:05:58.240
for not anything to boost their academic performance up at Cornell.
78
00:05:59.620 --> 00:06:06.209
Organizers are now busy, ladies and gentlemen, gearing up for
79
00:06:06.350 --> 00:06:14.139
a week of protest. In support of the former classmate
80
00:06:15.800 --> 00:06:20.480
who alleges she was gang raped by seven chi-fi. Is
81
00:06:20.500 --> 00:06:25.149
that how you pronounce it? Chi-fi? Chi-fi? Chi-fi? Chi-fi?
82
00:06:25.810 --> 00:06:26.029
What?
83
00:06:26.089 --> 00:06:30.209
What is it? Chi. Why don't they just use a K?
84
00:06:31.790 --> 00:06:36.129
It's Greek. It's Greek. Oh. How do you feel about that, Carlos?
85
00:06:36.470 --> 00:06:38.839
I'm not a fan because.
86
00:06:39.379 --> 00:06:44.329
No, there's no because. I'm not a fan.
87
00:06:44.370 --> 00:06:44.810
Yeah.
88
00:06:45.629 --> 00:06:47.430
They just got a reason to party. I can find
89
00:06:47.449 --> 00:06:53.490
reasons to party by myself, you know? Ladies and gentlemen.
90
00:06:53.550 --> 00:06:57.959
In case you don't know it, Carlos is of Greek heritage.
91
00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:03.399
And he occasionally leaves us in here, abandons us to
92
00:07:03.439 --> 00:07:05.540
go back to Greece so that he can hang out
93
00:07:06.860 --> 00:07:09.120
and do what he does over there.
94
00:07:09.829 --> 00:07:11.430
Very serious matters to attend to.
95
00:07:12.769 --> 00:07:13.129
Serious.
96
00:07:17.310 --> 00:07:20.939
And so these Greek, I don't even know. Why are
97
00:07:21.500 --> 00:07:26.019
there Greek fraternities in the first place? What does this
98
00:07:26.180 --> 00:07:31.920
all mean, a Greek fraternity? Does anybody know here?
99
00:07:33.550 --> 00:07:33.759
No.
100
00:07:33.899 --> 00:07:36.649
How did this Greek business get started? How come they
101
00:07:36.670 --> 00:07:42.360
don't have Roman fraternities? How come they don't have, you know,
102
00:07:44.720 --> 00:07:49.170
Asian fraternities? How come they don't have, I don't know,
103
00:07:50.769 --> 00:07:58.310
Russian fraternities? Well, what do you mean, whoa, whoa, whoa?
104
00:07:58.509 --> 00:08:01.829
Or how about the poor Africans? Don't they get fraternities too?
105
00:08:03.269 --> 00:08:05.430
You know, I mean, we got seven continents in this world.
106
00:08:05.490 --> 00:08:09.699
Why don't the Greeks have the fraternities? How about an
107
00:08:09.779 --> 00:08:17.889
Italian fraternity? Can we have an Italian fraternity? Anyway, organizers
108
00:08:17.970 --> 00:08:19.990
are gearing up for a week of protest in support
109
00:08:20.009 --> 00:08:22.009
of a classmate who alleges she was gang raped by
110
00:08:22.050 --> 00:08:27.290
seven Chi Phi fraternity members in 2024. The accusers identified
111
00:08:27.310 --> 00:08:30.490
in court documents only as Jane Doe. She's suing the university.
112
00:08:30.509 --> 00:08:32.570
She's suing the sorority. She's suing the seven men she
113
00:08:32.610 --> 00:08:37.480
alleges assaulted her. The lawsuit sparked a national outcry over
114
00:08:37.500 --> 00:08:39.419
the handling. Boy, oh boy, did we have some of
115
00:08:39.470 --> 00:08:43.090
the outcry there today. And we will have more on Friday.
116
00:08:45.889 --> 00:08:53.169
A Cornell spokesman in relation to these students vandalizing the building,
117
00:08:53.250 --> 00:09:00.879
smashing windows, leaving messages at Cornell rapist protected protesters said,
118
00:09:02.419 --> 00:09:08.940
Rapists at Cornell, rapists are protected, protesters are expelled. Smash
119
00:09:09.019 --> 00:09:15.029
the patriarchy. You know, if the patriarchy is smashed, how
120
00:09:15.169 --> 00:09:22.070
is the matriarchy going to continue? I wonder about that.
121
00:09:22.269 --> 00:09:27.149
If we smash the patriarchy, whatever that means, I'm assuming
122
00:09:27.190 --> 00:09:33.000
that means abolish the patriarchy. What happens to the matriarchy?
123
00:09:33.019 --> 00:09:33.279
It takes.
124
00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:38.580
Over. It can't take over because you need both in
125
00:09:38.720 --> 00:09:41.350
order for there to be a patriarchy or a matriarchy.
126
00:09:41.370 --> 00:09:47.409
It's about one being in control. One being in control.
127
00:09:47.450 --> 00:09:47.710
Really?
128
00:09:49.669 --> 00:09:49.850
Yeah.
129
00:09:49.990 --> 00:09:57.929
Yeah, okay. Okay. Anyway, so there are going to be
130
00:09:57.950 --> 00:10:04.360
a week of protest up at cornell and we have
131
00:10:04.419 --> 00:10:06.580
more on that story too i tell you what we
132
00:10:06.620 --> 00:10:09.279
should do let's listen to samuel alito let's close the
133
00:10:09.320 --> 00:10:14.259
loop on that uh cut five this is justice alito
134
00:10:15.039 --> 00:10:18.179
You heard him say that in praise of our Constitution,
135
00:10:18.340 --> 00:10:24.330
one of the briefest, when he was saying it's like this,
136
00:10:24.389 --> 00:10:28.870
it's like that, our Constitution is not even a huge document.
137
00:10:28.970 --> 00:10:33.379
It's a small document compared to the Constitution. Focus is
138
00:10:33.429 --> 00:10:37.220
on the essentials, she said. He sounded the alarm on
139
00:10:37.240 --> 00:10:39.399
the leftists that are trying to rip apart the court
140
00:10:39.440 --> 00:10:44.039
with their endless smears and And so forth. Cut five.
141
00:10:44.100 --> 00:10:47.870
This is Justice Alito asked about the leak and other matters.
142
00:10:47.879 --> 00:10:52.690
Anticipated that it would anger a great many people.
143
00:10:52.710 --> 00:10:53.730
The Dobbs decision.
144
00:10:53.769 --> 00:10:57.230
Who believed and continue to believe strongly that there should
145
00:10:57.269 --> 00:11:01.149
be a constitutional right to abortion. So I understood that.
146
00:11:01.909 --> 00:11:04.639
I wasn't surprised that there was such a reaction. I
147
00:11:04.679 --> 00:11:09.639
didn't anticipate the particulars, what that would, the forms that
148
00:11:09.679 --> 00:11:14.129
that reaction would would take the most extreme forms. And
149
00:11:14.250 --> 00:11:17.840
I never dreamed that the draft of the opinion would
150
00:11:17.879 --> 00:11:23.240
be leaked. That was totally unprecedented in the history of
151
00:11:23.299 --> 00:11:27.360
the country. It was a grave breach of the trust
152
00:11:27.480 --> 00:11:32.639
that everybody who worked in this building had before that point.
153
00:11:33.100 --> 00:11:37.320
And it very predictably made the five of us in
154
00:11:37.340 --> 00:11:41.990
the majority targets for assassination. and nearly resulted in the
155
00:11:42.049 --> 00:11:44.350
assassination of my colleague Brett Kavanaugh.
156
00:11:45.269 --> 00:11:48.000
Do you have an opinion about who you think the
157
00:11:48.039 --> 00:11:48.600
leaker was?
158
00:11:49.220 --> 00:11:55.200
I do have an opinion, but the evidence available at
159
00:11:55.240 --> 00:11:59.299
this time is not strong enough for the court or
160
00:11:59.440 --> 00:12:02.850
for me to say this is the person who was responsible.
161
00:12:05.429 --> 00:12:07.840
Interesting. I wonder who, I wonder if we'll ever learn
162
00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:09.759
who the leaker was. Anyway, let's take a break now
163
00:12:09.799 --> 00:12:12.360
so we have some time on the other side. We
164
00:12:12.399 --> 00:12:15.820
have one more from Justice Alito regarding, by the way,
165
00:12:15.879 --> 00:12:19.080
the attacks. And he was trying, boy, I tell you,
166
00:12:19.100 --> 00:12:21.360
they were just trying to bait him to say something
167
00:12:21.419 --> 00:12:25.419
about Donald Trump. James Golden and Snerdley keep it right here.
168
00:12:25.519 --> 00:12:28.600
Both Snerdley's Rush Hour Fastest Hour in American Media continues.
169
00:12:28.620 --> 00:12:29.240
Don't go away.
170
00:12:29.399 --> 00:12:33.990
The Rush Hour with James Golden. Entertaining and informative.
171
00:12:34.110 --> 00:12:36.230
On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
172
00:12:36.279 --> 00:12:41.070
Guys, look at this.
173
00:12:41.230 --> 00:12:42.549
I was just looking at my degree.
174
00:12:43.610 --> 00:12:44.330
Bachelor.
175
00:12:45.210 --> 00:12:50.250
Bachelor as in bachelor as in man. Does that make
176
00:12:50.289 --> 00:12:51.669
anyone else pissed or is it just me?
177
00:12:55.779 --> 00:12:59.019
What are you looking stunned? Carlos, this is what I'm saying.
178
00:12:59.539 --> 00:13:01.909
On Friday, I think we're going to just do an
179
00:13:02.029 --> 00:13:07.149
hour of these women. Of women. Because this is the
180
00:13:07.190 --> 00:13:09.309
kind of... Play that again. Folks, this is what this
181
00:13:09.450 --> 00:13:12.149
one is upset about. It went by fast. So listen.
182
00:13:12.490 --> 00:13:17.899
She's a college graduate. And she got her degree. And
183
00:13:17.960 --> 00:13:21.940
now she's holding her degree as she says this.
184
00:13:22.500 --> 00:13:28.289
Guys, look at this. I was just looking at my degree. Bachelor. Bachelor,
185
00:13:28.370 --> 00:13:33.029
as in bachelor, as in man. Does that make anyone
186
00:13:33.090 --> 00:13:34.250
else pissed, or is it just me?
187
00:13:38.039 --> 00:13:40.860
She apparently has a Bachelor of Arts degree in something,
188
00:13:40.919 --> 00:13:52.929
and she's quote-unquote pissed because bachelor means man. So listen
189
00:13:52.990 --> 00:13:56.950
to the way that Justice Samuel Alito is. This was
190
00:13:57.070 --> 00:14:01.049
once this was on. I believe this one was on
191
00:14:01.769 --> 00:14:07.950
the CBS show, if I'm not mistaken. Maybe or maybe
192
00:14:07.970 --> 00:14:11.929
it's because he was on Fox. But listen, cut six.
193
00:14:12.009 --> 00:14:14.580
This is Samuel Alito. And listen, boy, to the way
194
00:14:14.629 --> 00:14:17.340
they try to goad him. Go ahead.
195
00:14:17.600 --> 00:14:20.740
When you have political leaders on both sides talking about
196
00:14:20.779 --> 00:14:23.360
the Supreme Court as though justices are just nothing more
197
00:14:23.379 --> 00:14:27.220
than political actors trying to deliver victory to their team,
198
00:14:27.990 --> 00:14:29.409
how damaging is that to the court?
199
00:14:31.710 --> 00:14:34.870
I think it's damaging. I think it can be quite damaging.
200
00:14:34.929 --> 00:14:38.429
There's been a great change in what presidents have said
201
00:14:38.629 --> 00:14:43.279
about the court when they are unhappy about our decisions. Traditionally,
202
00:14:43.740 --> 00:14:47.049
what presidents would say is, As the Supreme Court, it's
203
00:14:47.100 --> 00:14:50.759
made its decision. I disagree with it, but we have
204
00:14:50.799 --> 00:14:53.460
to abide by it. And that was it. That's what
205
00:14:53.519 --> 00:14:57.830
presidents said. That's what members of the cabinet said. That
206
00:14:57.870 --> 00:14:58.590
has changed.
207
00:14:59.009 --> 00:14:59.909
Did Trump change that?
208
00:15:01.299 --> 00:15:04.929
It's been bipartisan. It's a bipartisan effort.
209
00:15:05.710 --> 00:15:07.429
In terms of presidents, I mean, the language that we're
210
00:15:07.450 --> 00:15:11.480
hearing from President Trump is different, certainly with social media.
211
00:15:11.519 --> 00:15:14.480
He has his own way of saying things, but the
212
00:15:14.519 --> 00:15:17.009
criticism of the court... I mean, I want to be
213
00:15:17.090 --> 00:15:20.720
even handed on this. The criticism of the court by
214
00:15:20.750 --> 00:15:24.940
President Biden and justices by President Biden and his administration
215
00:15:25.500 --> 00:15:30.139
was very harsh. And President Trump has been very harsh.
216
00:15:30.340 --> 00:15:32.259
But, you know, when you when you see the president
217
00:15:32.279 --> 00:15:34.320
of the United States and you're saying you're following the law,
218
00:15:34.679 --> 00:15:36.990
whichever way it leads you. But when you see the
219
00:15:37.029 --> 00:15:41.330
president of the United States talking about you and some
220
00:15:41.370 --> 00:15:44.830
of your colleagues as being part of his political MAGA
221
00:15:44.870 --> 00:15:47.389
movement that you're trying to make America great again, does
222
00:15:47.409 --> 00:15:48.059
that bother you?
223
00:15:49.100 --> 00:15:53.159
Well, we are not part of any political movement, and
224
00:15:53.179 --> 00:15:59.529
we are not attempting to further any political agenda. We
225
00:15:59.570 --> 00:16:03.899
are trying to Interpret the Constitution as best we can
226
00:16:04.120 --> 00:16:06.350
and apply it in the cases that come before us.
227
00:16:08.070 --> 00:16:11.250
When you see Trump, when Trump, Trump trying to say,
228
00:16:11.450 --> 00:16:15.690
he said it's been both. But no, got to blame Trump.
229
00:16:15.710 --> 00:16:18.370
We'll be back, folks. We have so much more to say.
230
00:16:28.320 --> 00:16:29.539
I actually want men to shut the * * *
231
00:16:29.480 --> 00:16:31.879
* up. I want a full media blackout for men.
232
00:16:31.919 --> 00:16:33.259
I don't want to see any more content for an
233
00:16:33.299 --> 00:16:36.539
entire week from men, okay? And if you really, really
234
00:16:36.799 --> 00:16:38.450
want to post some * * * * content, then
235
00:16:38.470 --> 00:16:40.769
it better be a full-ass research paper on all the
236
00:16:40.809 --> 00:16:43.570
factors that contributed to the Cornell 7, okay? Maybe a
237
00:16:43.570 --> 00:16:45.429
full-ass research paper on all the factors that led to
238
00:16:45.450 --> 00:16:47.730
the Gisele Pelico case. Oh, you haven't heard of that case?
239
00:16:47.929 --> 00:16:50.269
You should. If you gave a * * * *, you.
240
00:16:50.149 --> 00:16:54.679
Would be following women's news, okay? I don't want to
241
00:16:54.720 --> 00:16:57.279
hear anything from a man unless it's a full accounting
242
00:16:57.320 --> 00:16:59.940
of all the men in his life and recognizing some
243
00:16:59.960 --> 00:17:01.940
of the red flags that you might have skipped over
244
00:17:02.039 --> 00:17:04.339
because you saw them reflected back in yourself. And to
245
00:17:04.359 --> 00:17:07.190
hold him accountable would require you to hold yourself accountable
246
00:17:07.289 --> 00:17:08.289
and then change.
247
00:17:08.390 --> 00:17:09.369
And that would just be.
248
00:17:09.470 --> 00:17:10.269
No, no, no.
249
00:17:10.529 --> 00:17:11.650
That's inconvenient, okay?
250
00:17:12.150 --> 00:17:16.289
I want to hear a full counting of how you
251
00:17:16.849 --> 00:17:19.230
are working on yourself and how you're going to show
252
00:17:19.259 --> 00:17:21.920
up in the world differently to contribute to taking.
253
00:17:21.680 --> 00:17:22.440
Down rape culture.
254
00:17:22.859 --> 00:17:24.319
And I want to hear what it's costing you.
255
00:17:24.900 --> 00:17:25.500
Anything else?
256
00:17:25.619 --> 00:17:33.940
Just go ahead and shut the up for me. Okay. Folks,
257
00:17:34.279 --> 00:17:37.259
we have enough for shows of these women. They're out.
258
00:17:38.380 --> 00:17:43.049
They're loaded for bear. Okay. Let's get to it. This
259
00:17:43.150 --> 00:17:48.069
Cornell business, ladies and gentlemen, both ABC and everybody's done
260
00:17:48.309 --> 00:17:53.500
the packages on this. But I think the package that
261
00:17:53.599 --> 00:17:59.599
came from ABC are kind of, well, just listen to them.
262
00:18:01.049 --> 00:18:04.390
Cut 12, this is ABC News, and listen to this
263
00:18:04.430 --> 00:18:07.630
package that they did on the Cornell rape situation.
264
00:18:07.690 --> 00:18:10.099
ABC News has obtained a recording of a phone call
265
00:18:10.140 --> 00:18:13.180
between Jane Doe and the fraternity brother she went to
266
00:18:13.259 --> 00:18:16.339
see the night she was allegedly attacked. The call appears
267
00:18:16.400 --> 00:18:18.599
to show that he was trying to convince her he
268
00:18:18.660 --> 00:18:20.809
meant no harm, and she consented.
269
00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:24.849
You want me to give my recollection of the entire night?
270
00:18:25.089 --> 00:18:27.849
Three weeks after her traumatic night at the Chi Phi house,
271
00:18:27.910 --> 00:18:30.730
a then Cornell student now known as Jane Doe called
272
00:18:30.809 --> 00:18:33.930
Matthew Ingalls, the friend who invited her to the fraternity
273
00:18:33.970 --> 00:18:37.369
that night, recording the entire conversation. She told him she
274
00:18:37.390 --> 00:18:40.089
spent time in the emergency room and in therapy because
275
00:18:40.130 --> 00:18:42.869
there's so much damage on my body and my brain.
276
00:18:43.029 --> 00:18:45.009
She said, if I wanted to take this somewhere, what
277
00:18:45.049 --> 00:18:47.930
y'all did would be classified as gang rape. You already
278
00:18:47.970 --> 00:18:50.430
knew when I came in, I was 10 shots deep.
279
00:18:50.950 --> 00:18:58.500
Ingalls responded with a different recollection. Jane Doe said she
280
00:18:58.539 --> 00:19:01.200
was 100% sure she told him she had been at
281
00:19:01.240 --> 00:19:04.039
a bar for a sorority event, and I never lie.
282
00:19:04.299 --> 00:19:06.299
She asked him how they ended up in a threesome
283
00:19:06.319 --> 00:19:07.420
with one of his frat brothers.
284
00:19:11.470 --> 00:19:15.339
We start dancing for, like, maybe three to five minutes,
285
00:19:15.579 --> 00:19:16.920
and then I pop the question.
286
00:19:17.680 --> 00:19:18.500
You say yes.
287
00:19:18.900 --> 00:19:21.799
Then I remember, like, we didn't know who else to bring,
288
00:19:21.900 --> 00:19:22.380
so I go.
289
00:19:22.359 --> 00:19:23.549
Up to * * * *.
290
00:19:23.220 --> 00:19:26.180
Who was on the dance floor, too, and I pop
291
00:19:26.220 --> 00:19:29.420
the question, and he's like, yeah, and then we go upstairs.
292
00:19:29.839 --> 00:19:32.299
Jane Doe then asking for his help to identify all
293
00:19:32.319 --> 00:19:34.759
of the men, saying she remembered four in the bed
294
00:19:34.940 --> 00:19:37.940
and more standing around the room. Ingalls seemed to suggest
295
00:19:38.099 --> 00:19:40.000
both of their memories may not be accurate.
296
00:19:40.640 --> 00:19:44.809
I have racked my brain for this mystery. You know,
297
00:19:44.910 --> 00:19:47.440
it's possible that both of us like, remember this and
298
00:19:47.480 --> 00:19:48.140
it's not true.
299
00:19:48.480 --> 00:19:51.819
Jane Doe pushed back, saying, no, because I remember looking
300
00:19:51.900 --> 00:19:54.220
up and being like, that is too many people. She
301
00:19:54.259 --> 00:19:56.400
then asked, do you remember how any of these guys
302
00:19:56.440 --> 00:19:56.900
walked in?
303
00:19:56.920 --> 00:19:58.400
The party was sort.
304
00:19:58.220 --> 00:20:02.690
Of, like, crowded, so people started, like, um.
305
00:20:04.309 --> 00:20:06.250
Building up the balcony just because there was nowhere else
306
00:20:06.289 --> 00:20:06.609
to go.
307
00:20:07.029 --> 00:20:09.670
Ingalls did not mention that during the incident, he posted
308
00:20:09.710 --> 00:20:12.119
to a group on Snapchat a photo of her in
309
00:20:12.160 --> 00:20:15.759
bed and an invitation to his fraternity brothers, saying, boys,
310
00:20:15.880 --> 00:20:19.140
come whip it out. Cornell expelled Ingalls and another student
311
00:20:19.240 --> 00:20:22.740
and suspended two others. In this video obtained by ABC News,
312
00:20:22.880 --> 00:20:25.720
Cornell police inform one of the suspended students he is
313
00:20:25.900 --> 00:20:38.140
unwelcome on campus. All seven fraternity brothers have denied wrongdoing.
314
00:20:38.400 --> 00:20:41.319
Ingalls has not responded to Jane Doe's lawsuit, but during
315
00:20:41.380 --> 00:20:44.910
Cornell's internal investigation, he said he was too intoxicated to
316
00:20:44.970 --> 00:20:48.210
consent and suggested Jane Doe assaulted him.
317
00:20:51.150 --> 00:20:54.589
Yeah, that's not going over well, by the way, on
318
00:20:54.690 --> 00:21:00.059
social media with the women crowd. The idea that he
319
00:21:00.119 --> 00:21:04.539
was too intoxicated to give his consent and he was
320
00:21:04.599 --> 00:21:09.839
the victim. As you can imagine, that is just simply
321
00:21:09.880 --> 00:21:13.619
not going well. Here's another report, ladies and gentlemen. Go
322
00:21:13.660 --> 00:21:16.119
to Cut 13. The week after at Cornell. Prestigious.
323
00:21:29.970 --> 00:21:32.430
University's president is speaking out for the first time in
324
00:21:32.450 --> 00:21:36.759
a video message, promising a transparent investigation while acknowledging that
325
00:21:36.799 --> 00:21:39.779
the school, in his words, must do better. It comes
326
00:21:39.839 --> 00:21:41.900
as The New York Times reports on how the seven
327
00:21:41.940 --> 00:21:45.599
fraternity members, Jane Doe's alleged attackers, were disciplined by the
328
00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:48.859
school to were expelled. Late last week, New York's governor
329
00:21:48.900 --> 00:21:52.119
named the state's attorney general as a special prosecutor, taking
330
00:21:52.140 --> 00:21:54.490
the investigation out of the hands of a local district
331
00:21:54.529 --> 00:21:58.910
attorney who decided not to file criminal charges in 2024.
332
00:21:58.910 --> 00:22:01.970
All of the men have denied any wrongdoing. ABC's Olivia
333
00:22:02.009 --> 00:22:02.930
Rubin leads us off.
334
00:22:04.150 --> 00:22:07.230
Weeks after a former student sued Cornell, alleging she was
335
00:22:07.309 --> 00:22:10.740
gang raped and drugged by fraternity brothers and the university
336
00:22:10.799 --> 00:22:14.099
failed to protect her. Now the school's president is speaking out.
337
00:22:14.480 --> 00:22:18.890
I believe we as an administration and we as a community.
338
00:22:19.740 --> 00:22:21.099
Must do better.
339
00:22:21.519 --> 00:22:25.029
Michael Kotlikoff calling out party culture on campus.
340
00:22:25.289 --> 00:22:31.539
It raises heartbreaking and troubling issues about sexual assault, dehumanization,
341
00:22:32.279 --> 00:22:35.220
and aspects of party culture, alcohol, drugs.
342
00:22:35.819 --> 00:22:39.160
This as new details emerged tonight about how exactly the
343
00:22:39.339 --> 00:22:43.480
Ivy League University disciplined those seven Chi Phi fraternity members
344
00:22:43.900 --> 00:22:47.619
Jane Doe accused in 2024 of sexually assaulting her. We're
345
00:22:47.660 --> 00:22:50.420
learning for the first time the punishment for those seven
346
00:22:50.460 --> 00:22:55.009
men after the university launched an internal investigation. According to
347
00:22:55.029 --> 00:22:58.250
the New York Times, the school expelled the two fraternity
348
00:22:58.269 --> 00:23:01.569
members who first invited Jane Doe to that house and
349
00:23:01.609 --> 00:23:05.309
sent these Snapchat messages inviting others to the room. The
350
00:23:05.349 --> 00:23:08.269
two others who Jane Doe claims forced her to perform
351
00:23:08.349 --> 00:23:11.710
sex acts without her consent were suspended for two years
352
00:23:11.829 --> 00:23:15.839
and three semesters each and ordered to write reflection papers.
353
00:23:16.099 --> 00:23:19.720
Another student who graduated accused of forcibly kissing Jane Doe
354
00:23:19.980 --> 00:23:23.359
barred from campus. and the remaining two men accused of
355
00:23:23.519 --> 00:23:26.759
entering the room where the alleged assault occurred ordered in
356
00:23:26.819 --> 00:23:30.680
part to study sexual harassment and write those reflection papers.
357
00:23:31.079 --> 00:23:35.160
No criminal charges were ever filed. The district attorney declining
358
00:23:35.220 --> 00:23:38.619
to prosecute after he said campus police only sent him
359
00:23:38.660 --> 00:23:42.329
a six-page summary of Jane Doe's allegations, which her attorney
360
00:23:42.349 --> 00:23:45.349
says omitted her explicit allegation of rape.
361
00:23:45.529 --> 00:23:48.329
If you have a complaining witness saying, I'm 100% certain
362
00:23:48.369 --> 00:23:48.670
I was raped.
363
00:23:50.809 --> 00:23:52.730
That should make it into a report.
364
00:23:52.910 --> 00:23:56.390
But now, in a memo from November 2024 reviewed by
365
00:23:56.490 --> 00:24:00.329
ABC News, an investigator from Cornell said that the DA's
366
00:24:00.430 --> 00:24:04.349
office declined to review more evidence gathered by police. The
367
00:24:04.369 --> 00:24:07.349
DA saying Cornell didn't share all the materials.
368
00:24:07.549 --> 00:24:08.450
It was not complete.
369
00:24:09.019 --> 00:24:11.680
It was stick your head in the sand and don't
370
00:24:11.700 --> 00:24:12.680
look to find a crime.
371
00:24:12.900 --> 00:24:15.859
The state of New York launching a new criminal investigation.
372
00:24:16.019 --> 00:24:20.720
Governor Kathy Hochul tapping Attorney General Letitia James, a special prosecutor.
373
00:24:21.000 --> 00:24:21.880
I want the truth.
374
00:24:22.079 --> 00:24:24.140
How is this woman denied justice?
375
00:24:24.500 --> 00:24:27.960
As women around the country flood social media in support
376
00:24:28.000 --> 00:24:31.359
of Jane Doe, writing, I am Jane Doe, sharing their
377
00:24:31.420 --> 00:24:36.240
own stories of sexual assault and harassment. Lindsay, all seven
378
00:24:36.279 --> 00:24:39.019
of those men deny wrongdoing, one of them filing a
379
00:24:39.099 --> 00:24:43.039
lawsuit against Cornell looking to overturn that disciplinary decision and
380
00:24:43.140 --> 00:24:46.519
have his record expunged. Now, a judge has already denied
381
00:24:46.559 --> 00:24:50.349
that lawsuit, but his attorney appealing, telling ABC News tonight
382
00:24:50.400 --> 00:24:54.190
their efforts are for every student whose future Cornell puts
383
00:24:54.250 --> 00:24:54.789
in jeopardy.
384
00:24:55.009 --> 00:24:55.309
Lindsay.
385
00:24:55.630 --> 00:24:56.430
Olivia, thank you.
386
00:24:59.390 --> 00:25:02.549
There was a lot to unpack there, but how do
387
00:25:02.569 --> 00:25:10.240
you like that idea? Of writing reflection papers. Okay. So you.
388
00:25:12.420 --> 00:25:12.819
You are.
389
00:25:12.980 --> 00:25:14.220
Alleged to have.
390
00:25:14.700 --> 00:25:14.960
Had.
391
00:25:16.380 --> 00:25:23.650
Sexual contact with a woman. Allegedly. Without consent. Which by
392
00:25:23.690 --> 00:25:27.150
the way. Is a crime. Just so we're clear on that.
393
00:25:28.109 --> 00:25:31.630
Now the issue was. Did she have consent or not.
394
00:25:31.730 --> 00:25:34.839
And we'll see. I, by the way, I don't trust
395
00:25:34.859 --> 00:25:37.599
Letitia James to run a fair investigation. She already said
396
00:25:37.619 --> 00:25:40.140
that she sympathizes with the victim in this. So how
397
00:25:40.160 --> 00:25:41.720
are these guys going to get a fair shake from
398
00:25:41.740 --> 00:25:44.440
Letitia James? I don't think that's going to happen, but
399
00:25:44.480 --> 00:25:49.099
at any rate, the university, okay. Why don't you go
400
00:25:49.200 --> 00:25:59.880
and write a reflection paper? What the, I'm sorry. I
401
00:25:59.900 --> 00:26:02.920
was busy. I'm, If I use that word, I'd have
402
00:26:02.960 --> 00:26:11.740
to write my own reflection paper. Moving on, ladies and gentlemen.
403
00:26:12.880 --> 00:26:16.789
Cut 14. Other news about another woman in another state
404
00:26:16.950 --> 00:26:19.190
and definitely another state of consciousness.
405
00:26:20.569 --> 00:26:23.910
Krista Pike is still alive, unconscious and on a ventilator,
406
00:26:23.950 --> 00:26:26.980
her lawyer says, as hospital staff work to clear her
407
00:26:27.039 --> 00:26:30.720
system of two pentobarbital doses, the drug that was supposed
408
00:26:30.740 --> 00:26:31.539
to end her life.
409
00:26:31.960 --> 00:26:34.039
It may still be a long time before she's able
410
00:26:34.079 --> 00:26:34.920
to participate in.
411
00:26:35.029 --> 00:26:36.009
The legal process.
412
00:26:36.170 --> 00:26:38.890
Pike's attorney says even if she wakes up, her future
413
00:26:38.970 --> 00:26:39.609
is unclear.
414
00:26:40.109 --> 00:26:42.130
The least that could happen now is that we at
415
00:26:42.150 --> 00:26:44.950
least take death off the table and start looking for
416
00:26:45.390 --> 00:26:48.190
what the future could be for her. And we're certainly
417
00:26:48.450 --> 00:26:51.730
willing to discuss that with the governor, with whoever could
418
00:26:51.779 --> 00:26:52.650
make that decision.
419
00:26:53.019 --> 00:26:55.420
Tennessee Governor Bill Lee has put all of the state's
420
00:26:55.500 --> 00:26:58.359
executions on hold through the end of the year. His
421
00:26:58.420 --> 00:27:03.420
final term ends mid-January. Republican Senator and gubernatorial nominee Marsha
422
00:27:03.460 --> 00:27:06.140
Blackburn vowed to bring back the electric chair and deliver
423
00:27:06.200 --> 00:27:10.700
justice if elected. Meanwhile, her Democratic opponent, Jerry Green, opposes
424
00:27:10.759 --> 00:27:15.000
the death penalty altogether. Pike's botched execution was Tennessee's second
425
00:27:15.039 --> 00:27:18.630
this year under State Correction Commissioner Frank Strada, who announced
426
00:27:18.690 --> 00:27:23.150
his resignation Saturday. Before Pike, seven U.S. inmates had survived
427
00:27:23.230 --> 00:27:27.809
execution attempts since 2009. Two were later executed, three died
428
00:27:27.869 --> 00:27:31.009
on death row, and two remain alive. Pike is the
429
00:27:31.150 --> 00:27:34.670
first woman known to survive an execution attempt. Her case
430
00:27:34.730 --> 00:27:38.609
is unprecedented because she survived after receiving the lethal drugs.
431
00:27:39.150 --> 00:27:39.930
So far as we know.
432
00:27:41.119 --> 00:27:46.140
The Department of Correction followed exactly the protocol as outlined.
433
00:27:46.400 --> 00:27:49.339
Pike has been on death row for more than 30 years.
434
00:27:49.759 --> 00:27:53.380
She was convicted of brutally torturing and murdering her classmate,
435
00:27:53.400 --> 00:27:54.589
19-year-old Colleen Slemmer.
436
00:27:54.960 --> 00:27:58.089
One thing I can tell you that isn't justice for
437
00:27:58.150 --> 00:28:02.509
Colleen's family was coming up for an emotional event and
438
00:28:02.750 --> 00:28:06.390
for Krista Pike to be left so far in a
439
00:28:06.430 --> 00:28:10.579
state of unconsciousness I don't know that that's justice for anybody.
440
00:28:10.819 --> 00:28:13.710
Pike's lawyers are now calling on Governor Lee to commute
441
00:28:13.759 --> 00:28:15.680
her death sentence to life in prison.
442
00:28:17.940 --> 00:28:20.480
And there you have the latest on Krista Pike. One
443
00:28:20.599 --> 00:28:25.980
other thing, if you were out partying in Vienna, Georgia,
444
00:28:27.119 --> 00:28:29.920
you know, they had a block party in Vienna, Georgia.
445
00:28:30.559 --> 00:28:33.640
Cut 17. Here's the result of you go out for
446
00:28:33.660 --> 00:28:35.640
a block party on the weekend and you're in a
447
00:28:35.680 --> 00:28:37.299
certain neighborhood. This is what happened.
448
00:28:37.319 --> 00:28:40.700
Two people are dead in South Georgia and dozens are
449
00:28:40.740 --> 00:28:43.450
wounded after a mass shooting at a neighborhood block party
450
00:28:43.589 --> 00:28:44.450
early Sunday.
451
00:28:44.970 --> 00:28:46.029
The Dooley County.
452
00:28:45.809 --> 00:28:49.170
Sheriff says more than 1,000 people were gathered when more
453
00:28:49.210 --> 00:28:53.569
than 50 shots were fired. Most of the 35 injured victims,
454
00:28:53.630 --> 00:28:56.950
some as young as 14 years old. suffered gunshot wounds,
455
00:28:56.990 --> 00:29:00.130
while several others were hit by cars or sustained other
456
00:29:00.190 --> 00:29:05.190
injuries as people fled. A 21-year-old and a 23-year-old were
457
00:29:05.250 --> 00:29:08.829
both pronounced dead at the scene. No arrests have been
458
00:29:08.849 --> 00:29:09.329
made yet.
459
00:29:11.269 --> 00:29:15.579
There you go, Vienna, Georgia. Let's hang out for a
460
00:29:15.619 --> 00:29:20.140
black party. When we get back, we have Clip of
461
00:29:20.160 --> 00:29:24.009
the Day. Folks, tomorrow we're going to spend some time
462
00:29:24.089 --> 00:29:26.190
on the midterms as well. We had a lot of
463
00:29:26.230 --> 00:29:28.859
cuts today, but you know, time constraints and all that.
464
00:29:30.380 --> 00:29:35.039
Harry Enten, Byron Donalds on the governor's race in Florida,
465
00:29:36.569 --> 00:29:39.970
did a great interview. He was asked if he was running.
466
00:29:40.250 --> 00:29:45.599
away from donald trump that's the media spin of larry
467
00:29:45.630 --> 00:29:51.380
cudlow interviewed him and of course and then there's the
468
00:29:51.400 --> 00:30:00.380

00:30:02.980 --> 00:30:07.740
The Rush Hour with James Golden. Entertaining and informative. On
471
00:30:07.779 --> 00:30:09.759
the Red Apple Podcast Network.
472
00:30:13.539 --> 00:30:18.119
The Clip of the Day. You want to hear it.
473
00:30:18.200 --> 00:30:23.220
It's the Clip of the Day. Ladies and gentlemen, we
474
00:30:23.240 --> 00:30:28.730
go to an event called Hands Off Our Vote. And
475
00:30:28.789 --> 00:30:32.740
there we find one of the foremost Hollywood actors of
476
00:30:32.799 --> 00:30:39.559
the left, Robert De Niro, addressing the crowd. Here is Mr.
477
00:30:39.779 --> 00:30:40.460
De Niro.
478
00:30:40.799 --> 00:30:44.529
When masked and armed ice thugs stalk our polling places, what.
479
00:30:44.460 --> 00:30:45.369
Do we say to them?
480
00:30:46.150 --> 00:30:48.569
Keep your hands off our vote.
481
00:30:49.430 --> 00:30:54.789
And when that coward, that piece of shit, Donald Trump
482
00:30:55.349 --> 00:30:58.269
tries to take our voice and power away.
483
00:30:58.650 --> 00:30:59.690
What do we tell him?
484
00:31:01.680 --> 00:31:03.460
Hands off our vote.
485
00:31:12.059 --> 00:31:13.269
I think they got the message.
486
00:31:15.089 --> 00:31:17.930
Now, with your commitment and support, we won't just send
487
00:31:17.950 --> 00:31:18.609
them a message.
488
00:31:18.950 --> 00:31:27.660
We're going to send them away. Take back the House. Yes.
489
00:31:29.500 --> 00:31:33.230
Take back the Senate. Yes. Take back the power.
490
00:31:34.309 --> 00:31:34.569
Yes.
491
00:31:34.849 --> 00:31:36.089
Take back our country.
492
00:31:36.769 --> 00:31:37.069
Yes.
493
00:31:38.049 --> 00:31:44.740
Thank you. Yeah. Take back the House. Take back the Senate.
494
00:31:45.720 --> 00:31:46.099
Yeah.
495
00:31:46.380 --> 00:31:53.970
Take back the country. We're going to leave it today.
496
00:31:53.990 --> 00:31:56.210
And there's so many things we didn't get to today,
497
00:31:56.269 --> 00:31:59.079
by the way, the formation of the Jimi Hendrix experience,
498
00:32:00.380 --> 00:32:03.500
which was of course, uh, monumental in the music world.
499
00:32:04.160 --> 00:32:07.059
Beyonce was on top of the charts with baby boy.
500
00:32:07.180 --> 00:32:10.789
Sabrina Carpenter had a great run on this day. Espresso, please, please.
501
00:32:10.869 --> 00:32:14.869
All that first woman in billboard history to chart three
502
00:32:14.890 --> 00:32:17.750
of her singles. But on this day, one of the
503
00:32:17.910 --> 00:32:21.799
voices of the 1960s, the temptations, uh, Shared the lead
504
00:32:21.839 --> 00:32:26.380
with David Ruffin. Eddie Kendricks passed away. Eddie Kendricks went
505
00:32:26.420 --> 00:32:28.630
on to have a brilliant solo career. I met him
506
00:32:28.670 --> 00:32:32.670
at Radio City Music. And this is one of his
507
00:32:32.710 --> 00:32:39.920
hits that I love so much. All men don't discriminate, baby.
508
00:32:42.880 --> 00:32:47.750
May God bless. Each and every single one of you,
