PENCIL ACTS, LOOK UP DONALD
TRUMP EXPLANATION WHY IT IS
CALLED PENCIL.
SECURITY CONCERNS AFTER POSTING
ON TIKTOK, THE APP BANNED ON
U.S. GOVERNMENT DEVICES IN 30.
>> I’M ADAM SCHIFF WITH
TROUBLING NEWS, TODAY KEVIN
McCARTHY REMOVED ME FROM THE
HOUSE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE FOR
HOLDING TRUMP ACCOUNTABLE AND
STANDING UP TO MAGA REPUBLICANS.
>> Ashley: JOE CONCHA JOINS US
NOW, GOING OUT ON A LIMB HERE, I
WILL SAY THIS IS THE TYPE OF
BEHAVIOR WHY PEOPLE THINK HE
DOESN’T NEED ACCESS TO SENSITIVE
MATERIALS.
>> Joe: THE HUBRIS OF THE
DEFEATED AND THIS NOT COO BE ANY
MORE ILL ADVISED BY MOST
PROLIFIC LEAKER IN THE FORM OF
ADAM SCHIFF.
TIKTOK IS OWNED BY THE CHINESE
COMMUNIST GOVERNMENT, BANNED
FROM GOVERNMENT DEVICES FOR
SPYWARE CONCERN IN 30 STATES.
NOW THE FACT THAT MATT GAETZ IS
GOING TO INTRODUCE THE PENCIL
ACT, BLOCKING SCHIFF FROM REVIEWING INFORMATION.
REVIEWING INFORMATION.
HERE IS WHAT PENCIL STANDS FOR.
PREVENTING EXTREME NEGLIGENCE
WITH CLASSIFIED INFORMATION
LICENSES RESOLUTION, IT STANDS
FOR SOMETHING, AN ACRONYM.
SCHIFF ISUN ARING FOR CALIFORNIA
SENATE IN DEEP BLUE STATE LIKE
CALIFORNIA AND GIVEN HE’S A
MEDIA DARLING ON OTHER CABLE
NEWS NETWORKS, HE MAY VERY WELL
WIN.
>> Todd: THAT WOULD BE INSANE IF
RO KHANNA DOESN’T COUNTER
BALANCE HIM.
READ THE ROOM, BRAH.
ASSOCIATED PRESS ISSUING
GUIDANCE ON THE WORD "THE."
THIS IS REAL.
AP TWEETING WE RECOMMEND
AVOIDING DEHUMANIZING "THE"
LABEL SUCH AS THE POOR, THE
MENTALLY ILL, THE FRENCH, THE
DISABLED, THE COLLEGE EDUCATED.
USE WORDING SUCH AS PEOPLE WITH
MENTAL ILLNESS.
I THINK, JOE, ON THIS SHOW, WE
JOKED THE WORD POLICE WOULD
EVENTUALLY COME FOR THE WORD
"THE" BUT I THOUGHT THEY WERE
JOKING, THEY ARE COMING FOR
"THE."
>> Joe: DEPENDING WHAT YOUR
DEFINITION OF THE WORD "IS" IS.
THIS IS NOT A SPOOF, EVERYONE
WATCHING AT HOME, ASSOCIATED
PRESS, AS A WRITER, I USE THEIR
STYLE GUIDE AND NOW THEIR STYLE
GUIDE IS SUPPOSED TO BE
NONPARTISAN WIRE SERVICE, NOW
THE WOKEST OF THE WOKE.
I GUESS WE CAN’T SAY THE FREE
PRES ANYMORE, IT IS JUST FREE
PRESS.
THIS IS ONE OF THE MANY REASONS
WHY THE MEDIA, SORRY, MEDIA, HAS
A TRUST ISSUE WITH THE AMERICAN
PEOPLE.
THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE TO DO, HOW DO
YOU NOT PUT THE IN FRONT OF
SOMETHING THAT IS AN ENTITY.
HOW DO YOU DO IT?
>> Todd: THE FRENCH ARE LIKE,
WHY DID YOU DRAG US INTO THIS.
>> Ashley: JOKINGLY CHANGED
TWITTER BIOTO ELIMINATE THE WORD
"THE."
FANS ARE BLASTING THE MILWAUKEE
BUCKS FOR A HALF-TIME DRAG SHOW
DURING PRIDE NIGHT.
HERE IS WHAT THE PLAYERS ARE
SAYING ABOUT IT.
LISTEN.
>> THE POWER OF SPORTS CAN BRING
EVERYBODY TOGETHER, DOESN’T
MATTER GENDER, ETHNICITY,
POLITICAL VIEW OR YOUR SEXUAL
IDENTITY.
>> VERY IMPORTANT FOR THE FANS
AND ATHLETES AND EVERYONE IN
THIS WORLD TO MAKE SPORTING
EVENTS AND ANY EVENT FOR THE
LGBTQ COMMUNITY MORE SUCCESSFUL.
>> Ashley: PEOPLE ON SOCIAL
MEDIA HAD MIXED FEELINGS ABOUT
THIS SITUATION, WHAT DID YOU
THINK?
>> Joe: I THINK THAT SPORTSES IS
THE ULTIMATE ESCAPISM.
WHEN YOU GO TO A GAME, IN PERSON
OR WATCHING AT HOME, WORK A HARD
DAY, YOU HAVE A FAMILY, YOU DO
INSANE AMOUNTS OF LAUNDRY, WHEN
YOU HAVE TWO KIDS AND ALL YOU
WANT TO DO IS RELAX AND WATCH A
GAME AND GET AWAY FROM IT ALL.
IT SEEMS LIKE OVER AND OVER
AGAIN, PARTICULARLY WITH THE
N.B.A., ALL THINGS INJECTED IN.
STAND UP FOR STUFF, THAT IS
FINE, IF YOU’RE A PLAYER OR
OWNER OR PART OF THE
ORGANIZATION, DO THAT, BUT TO
INJECT IT INTO THE GAME ITSELF,
PARTICULARLY HALFTIME, I THINK
THAT THERE IS A TIME AND PLACE
AND THAT IS NOT FOR MANY
SPORTINGS FANS THE TIME AND
PLACE FOR THIS.
WE WANT TO SEE THE MILWAUKEE
BUCKS PLAY A CHAMPIONSHIP, NOT
THE OTHER STUFF.
>> Todd: ON THE TOPIC OF DRAG,
YOU HEARD MANY VOICES IN THE GAY
COMMUNITY SAY THE DRAG ATTENTION
IS DROWNING OUT THE MESSAGE AND
THE GAINS GAY PEOPLE HAVE MADE
