Summary
It’s another one of those weeks: 5G gives you better reception but possible plane crashes, Biden trusts Trump’s Postmaster General to get us our COVID tests, and the Supreme Court blocks a federal mandate to get everyone vaccinated. Plus, the voting rights bill is on its death march.
We’re at the first anniversary of Biden’s presidency. Republicans are licking their chops. Cable news has written Biden’s obituary. They’re missing one thing - the majority of Americans don’t want a Republican anywhere near the White House. The majority want paid family leave, a living wage, free pre-K, free community college, police reform, and a serious fight to save planet Earth. And the majority wants Biden and the Dems to quit dinkin’ around and crush the party of the coup.

| 0:00.0 | My podcast here was created using the anchor app. |
| 0:05.2 | Anchor is the free podcast platform that allows me and you and anyone to set up and start their own |
| 0:11.9 | podcast free of charge so that your voice is heard. Anchor will distribute your podcast for you. |
| 0:18.7 | Again, free of charge. So you can be on Spotify, you can be on Apple podcasts, many more. |
| 0:24.7 | Now, why are they doing this? Simply, it's because they believe in the democratization of audio. |
| 0:30.0 | That's why I use this platform and I encourage you to download the free anchor app or go to anchor.fm |
| 0:38.4 | and get started. I can't tell you how many people I've heard from, from you. |
| 0:43.0 | People listen to this podcast. We've gone on to create their own podcast. |
| 0:47.3 | I'm so happy to hear this. Now more than ever, our voices need to be heard. |
| 1:03.2 | This is Rumble with Michael Moore and I'm Michael Moore. |
| 1:19.2 | 5G. We've been inundated with commercials for the last year on 5G wireless from Verizon and AT&T. |
| 1:36.8 | Well, the head of the pilots union, airline pilots, has said that 5G is going to interfere |
| 1:43.2 | with a particular radio device that's in every cockpit that tells the pilot how close to the ground |
| 1:51.4 | that the plane is. It tells it says, okay, we're a thousand feet from the ground, we're a hundred feet |
| 1:57.9 | or a fifty feet. They got to know exactly how close this plane is flying to the ground. |
| 2:03.2 | Obviously, 5G apparently doesn't allow that piece of radio equipment to work in the cockpit. |
| 2:10.4 | So, the airline pilots association and others have been begging for months to slow this 5G thing |
| 2:18.3 | down or to remove it from anywhere within a couple of miles from an airport. Well, of course, AT&T and Verizon, |
| 2:25.2 | they don't want you to not have your 5G when you're at the airport. So, they're risking a pilot |
| 2:33.8 | not being able to get the information that she or he needs to land the plane safely. |
| 2:41.6 | This is crazy. I mean, they've already done this in Europe, you know, France and other countries, |
| 2:46.2 | you know, like you got to be at least a couple of miles away from the airport. |
