| 0:00.0 | We got some people coming out of the woodwork critiques of the documentary 2000 Mules, Ben Shapiro, |
| 0:05.7 | and others. I'm going to address a few of the specific points raised by these critics. |
| 0:11.1 | Duffy's going to join me. We're going to talk about the baby food shortage, about how Mike |
