1
00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:14,120
Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's

2
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: America's favorite gun, total bible clinging, deplorable American.

3
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:19,919
Speaker 2: That's us, that.

4
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:23,279
Speaker 3: American.

5
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 2: Todd Starns And Hello everybody. This is the Todd Starns

6
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 2: Radio Show. I am your host, Todd Starns broadcasting border

7
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:41,400
Speaker 2: to border, coast to coast across the Fruited Plain. And wow,

8
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 2: do we have a very busy show for you today, everybody.

9
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 2: Great to have you with us. And can we start

10
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:52,600
Speaker 2: out with the great big elephant in the room. And

11
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 2: that elephant would be none other than Senate Majority Leader

12
00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 2: John Thoon. Now, I watched the President's remarks yesterday and

13
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 2: the President did a terrific job. He was doing two

14
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 2: big events and yesterday a lot of just about all

15
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 2: of the congressional delegation in the Congressional Caucus rather was

16
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:20,960
Speaker 2: in Miami for this meeting, Republicans meeting with the President

17
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 2: who is not only the leader of the free world,

18
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:29,400
Speaker 2: but he's also the leader of the Republican Party. And

19
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 2: the President gave a terrific speech. Did I think a

20
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 2: wonderful job of outlining all of the incredible successes that

21
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 2: he has achieved over the very brief I mean not

22
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,320
Speaker 2: even a year and a half in office, and the

23
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 2: President has just really done some pretty remarkable things for

24
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 2: the country. But one of the big challenges here is

25
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 2: the voter ID, and ladies and gentlemen, if we do

26
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 2: not get voter ID across the finish line, the republic

27
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 2: is going to be in serious trouble here, and the

28
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 2: President is catching all sorts of blowback. And what really

29
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 2: bothered me about yesterday, and I don't know if you

30
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,960
Speaker 2: had a chance to watch it on Newsmax, but it

31
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 2: was we broadcast the entire speech, and it really angered

32
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:25,079
Speaker 2: me to watch our president, a man who literally took

33
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 2: a bullet to the head for this nation, a man

34
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 2: who literally provided the coattails that the Republicans needed to

35
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:39,799
Speaker 2: win Congress. It was alarming to me to watch this

36
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:46,919
Speaker 2: man beg and plead with members of his own party

37
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 2: to get this legislation across the finish line. It was

38
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 2: it was embarrassing. But this is the position that John

39
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 2: Thune and the Republicans in the US Senate have placed

40
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 2: our president in, and it's really it's just unacceptable. Here

41
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 2: is the president pleading with these four to five senators

42
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 2: that simply refuse to vote on the same act take

43
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:15,840
Speaker 2: a lesson, and.

44
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 4: We're going to have to push the Senate because you

45
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 4: have four or five senators that are I don't know,

46
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,639
Speaker 4: four or five Republican senators. You'll have to explain them

47
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 4: to me. But we're not going to get into that.

48
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:29,360
Speaker 4: But we're going to push them to get it done

49
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 4: because I don't think you can politically exist if you're

50
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 4: not going to do voter idea in these things. I

51
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 4: don't think the people in this country will stand for it.

52
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 4: So I'm making my biggest plea tonight. It'll make you

53
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 4: and I'm not doing it for this reason at all.

54
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 4: It'll guarantee the midterms. It'll guarantee the midterms. If you

55
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 4: don't get it, big trouble. My opinion. If you get

56
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 4: this your midterms and they know it for two reasons.

57
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 4: Number one, they won't be able to cheat, and number two,

58
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 4: the people are demanding it. Every time I go out,

59
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 4: Save America, sir, Save America Act. We want the Save

60
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,920
Speaker 4: America Acts, sir. That's all they talk about. They don't

61
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 4: talk about housing, they don't talk about anything. That's what

62
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 4: they talk about. And if you send it up that

63
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 4: you're gonna win the midterms at levels that you can't

64
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 4: even believe, and you're gonna win every election for a

65
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 4: long time until somebody really screws things up, and hopefully

66
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 4: that won't happen.

67
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 2: And that's the President. And he went back to this

68
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,039
Speaker 2: theme several times, and every single time he went back,

69
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 2: I just felt my blood pressure going up. I had

70
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 2: to stop what I was doing and go drink an

71
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:42,280
Speaker 2: emergency doctor pepper. That's how bad it got. So it

72
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,159
Speaker 2: frustrates me because now the Senate Majority Leader is coming

73
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:50,159
Speaker 2: out and he is saying John Thune is now saying

74
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 2: that the American people really don't want the Save America Act,

75
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 2: that it's just a bunch of paid influencers. So the

76
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 2: Majority Leader is trying to convince and maybe he has

77
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,280
Speaker 2: convinced all of the folks up on Capitol hilp that

78
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 2: the majority of the American people just simply do not

79
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 2: want voter integrity. This is something that the paid social

80
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 2: media influencers are getting money to advance this cause. I

81
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,599
Speaker 2: just want to go on the record here, yours truly

82
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 2: has not received a single penny from anyone to promote

83
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 2: the Save America Act. Not a single penny, you say, Todd,

84
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 2: what are you doing here? You're playing with words. You

85
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,280
Speaker 2: know they don't make pennies anymore. Okay, fine, not a

86
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 2: plug nickel. They haven't given me a plug nickel to

87
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 2: promote the Save America Act, and it bothers me, and

88
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 2: quite frankly, it's offensive that John Thune would somehow suggest

89
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 2: that my support of the Save America Act is based

90
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 2: on how much money I'm getting from lobbyists, which is

91
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 2: really rich coming from someone like John Thune who was

92
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 2: a multimillionaire many times over, How exactly did Senate majority

93
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 2: of Leader John Thune get his riches, get his treasure?

94
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:16,360
Speaker 2: I do wonder so. Senator Mike Lee is now firing

95
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:20,279
Speaker 2: back at John Thune. Here's what he had to say,

96
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 2: got number three.

97
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 5: Over the last few months, tens of millions of Americans

98
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 5: have jumped on the cause of supporting the Save America

99
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:33,840
Speaker 5: Act and using the talking filibuster to advance it. I

100
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 5: regret that Smon Washington tonight are dismissing all those who

101
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 5: feel this way and who have weighed in as somehow

102
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 5: paid influencers or the product of paid influencers.

103
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 3: This is wrong.

104
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:50,359
Speaker 5: So if you're hearing this message and you agree with

105
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 5: these objectives, please redouble your efforts. Make clear this is

106
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 5: not the product of paid influencers. These are real Americans

107
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 5: doing what Americans do best.

108
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 2: So look, here's what needs to happen. We need to

109
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 2: know from the President officially who are the four to

110
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 2: five senators. I mean, I've got a pretty good idea,

111
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 2: but we need to know officially from the White House

112
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 2: who are the senators who are standing in the way.

113
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 2: You ladies and gentlemen need to be calling your senators

114
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 2: from your states to make sure that they're supporting this

115
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 2: and they know that you want them to support the

116
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 2: Save America Act. And all of us need to be

117
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 2: deluging Senate Majority Leader John Thune's office. This is an

118
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 2: all hands on deck moment because now Thune is saying, well,

119
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 2: we just don't know if we got the time to

120
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 2: do it. No, no, no, you got to make the time.

121
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 2: You have to make the time to get this across

122
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 2: the finish line. But my question is very simple, and

123
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 2: we have i would say thousands of people in our

124
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 2: nation's capital that listen to this program, and they need

125
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 2: to hear from you. Senator John Thune says, all you

126
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 2: people really don't care about this. The only folks who

127
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 2: care are the paid social media influencers. Is that true?

128
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 2: Is that true? Ladies and gentlemen, our telephone number nine

129
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:12,679
Speaker 2: oh one two six zero five nine two six. Again,

130
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 2: that's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six,

131
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 2: And we're going to be taking your calls on this

132
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 2: during this hour of the program. By the way, coming up,

133
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 2: we're excited to talk to our good buddy, doctor Robert Jeffers,

134
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 2: who is pastor of the First Baptist Church in Dallas.

135
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 2: He has some things to say about James tallerco who

136
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 2: most recently cloaked the cross of Jesus Christ in a

137
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 2: transgender flag. Also, we're going to be talking to Josh

138
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:49,079
Speaker 2: Jones from Washington, DC. He is our great Republican strategist.

139
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 2: And a little bit later on we're going to be

140
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 2: talking to the director of an incredible program called Combat

141
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:58,439
Speaker 2: Anti Semitism. So a lot going on here, the very

142
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 2: latest on the terror attack in New York City, the

143
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:06,440
Speaker 2: very latest on the war. Senator Lindsey Graham, Lady Graham

144
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 2: wants to send the sons and daughters of South Carolina

145
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,320
Speaker 2: off to war. We're going to get into that as

146
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 2: well again. Our number nine oh one two six zero

Speaker 2: hundred and say Starns, all right, a lot of moving

166
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 2: parts today. But ladies and gentlemen, I think, and it

167
00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 2: is not an understatement to say that the fate of

168
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 2: the Republic really does lie with what the Senate does

169
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 2: here or does not do when it comes to the

170
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 2: Save Act and the Save America Act. And I do

171
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:54,080
Speaker 2: encourage you to call your senators and let them know

172
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 2: where you stand on this. There's really and again you're

173
00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 2: gonna hear, You're gonna hear your senators say, oh no, no, no,

174
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 2: I do support the Save Act, but we just don't

175
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 2: have the votes. No, they do have the votes. They

176
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 2: can force a talking filibuster, but they don't want to

177
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 2: do it. And John Thune is hiding behind And there's

178
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 2: not even a rule. Do you know when you look

179
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,439
Speaker 2: at the rules of the US Senate that have been

180
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 2: around since the start of the Republic, the word filibuster

181
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 2: is not even in the rules of the Senate. So

182
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 2: this is nothing more than the Republicans trying to slow

183
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:36,320
Speaker 2: down President Trump's agenda and his plans. Look Dick Durbin

184
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 2: just a few moments ago, speaking in the Senate said

185
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:44,319
Speaker 2: flat out, and he said Look, if this thing passes,

186
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,079
Speaker 2: millions of people are going to be coming off the

187
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 2: voter rules. Yeah. Absolutely, And that's the point of all

188
00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 2: of this, is that we have so many people voting

189
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 2: that should not be voting, and the Save America Act

190
00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 2: is going to take care of that. We're finally going

191
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:03,439
Speaker 2: to have fair elections. We're going to have integrity at

192
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,560
Speaker 2: the ballot box. And by the way, Senator John Cornyn,

193
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 2: he's already exposed himself on this. He's already exposed himself.

194
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 2: And I know the President still waiting to endorse in

195
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 2: the Texas Senate race the primary. I think the President

196
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 2: needs to go ahead, jump in there and throw his

197
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 2: full support behind Ken Paxton, because at least we know

198
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 2: where Ken Paxton's going to stand on all of this.

199
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 2: We don't know where John Cornet. John Cornyn will say

200
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 2: one thing and do another. And that's one of the

201
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,320
Speaker 2: reasons why the good people of Texas are done with

202
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 2: this guy. The level of animosity being directed at John

203
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 2: Cornyn by his fellow Republicans there in the Loan Star

204
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 2: State is simply breathtaking, ladies and gentlemen. So this is

205
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 2: where we are now. I got to note what's a

206
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,960
Speaker 2: couple of nights ago, they said, Starne, what is going

207
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 2: on here? This makes absolutely no sense. And it doesn't

208
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:01,400
Speaker 2: make any sense. Again, going back to the CNN data,

209
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,840
Speaker 2: eighty percent of the American people believed that we should

210
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,439
Speaker 2: show an ID when we go to vote. Eighty percent.

211
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 2: This is common sense. And yet the Republicans refused to.

212
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 2: They refused to bunch and thess Tom, what's going on here?

213
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 2: What am I missing?

214
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:19,319
Speaker 6: Well?

215
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 2: I want you to think about something. And this goes

216
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:25,080
Speaker 2: all the way back to twenty fourteen, twenty fifteen, when

217
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 2: Trump finally announced that you came down the Golden Escalator,

218
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 2: announced that he was going to be running for the

219
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 2: White House, and everybody thought Trump was a joke. Everybody did.

220
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 2: But then Trump started to debate. Keep in mind that

221
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 2: this was back in twenty sixteen. That should have been

222
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 2: a Jeb Bush election. Jeb Bush was the guy. Okay,

223
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 2: I know, we had what seventeen people running in that

224
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,680
Speaker 2: Remember what though you had Mi Kackabee, you had Rick Perry,

225
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 2: Carly Fiorina, Ted Cruz, But it was Jeb Bush. He

226
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 2: was the establishment's choice. And they were enraged not only

227
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:08,080
Speaker 2: that Jeb Bush lost, but that Donald Trump took him out.

228
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 2: Remember low Energy Jeb. Remember that there was payback for

229
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:17,600
Speaker 2: that moment. Payback, and that's what we're watching right now

230
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 2: because the Republicans know they really can't they can't do

231
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,240
Speaker 2: anything to stop President Trump's agenda. Keep in mind, President

232
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 2: Trump's agenda is not the Republican Party's agenda. It is

233
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:32,800
Speaker 2: a populist agenda. It's the Republicans that kept getting us

234
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 2: into these endless wars. And I'll get to Iran in

235
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:39,080
Speaker 2: just a moment. It was the Republicans who wanted to

236
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 2: play nice with the Democrats, and Donald Trump came in

237
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 2: and he blew all of that up. It's a new

238
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:50,480
Speaker 2: day in DC, and they know the only way they

239
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 2: can stop his agenda, and there are two ways, and

240
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 2: we're about to see both of these play out. I'm

241
00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 2: afraid Number one is to to use the system up

242
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 2: on Capitol Hill to slow down and stop the president's agenda,

243
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 2: which is what's happened here. That's why they've slow rolled

244
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 2: a lot of these judicial nominations, that's why they're stopping

245
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 2: the Save America Act, and they're blaming it all on

246
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 2: Senate procedure, but it's really not procedure. It's about the

247
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 2: Senate Republicans themselves. They're the ones that are doing this.

248
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 2: You say, well, what's the point of all of that, Well,

249
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 2: the second point is this, the only way that Trump

250
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 2: can succeed is with a Republican majority. And these guys

251
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 2: hate Donald Trump so much they are willing to sacrifice

252
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 2: leadership in the House of Representatives and the Senate if

253
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 2: it stops Donald Trump's agenda. So I think what's happening

254
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 2: here and what we're going to see moving into the midterms,

255
00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 2: you are going to see establishment Republicans working behind the

256
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 2: scenes to try and sabotage the midterm elections. By the way,

257
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 2: you pay attention to Tucker Carlson. Tucker's out there now

258
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 2: and he's man. That guy is completely off the reservation.

259
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,800
Speaker 2: And you've got Nick Fuintes who is now saying he's

260
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,920
Speaker 2: going to be voting for Democrats. He's not voting for

261
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 2: Republicans anymore. All the puzzle pieces are coming together here,

262
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 2: and you're going to have all of these forces lining

263
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 2: up to stop Donald Trump. That's what the midterms is

264
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:34,680
Speaker 2: really about. It's about stopping the Trump train. And when

265
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 2: the Democrats finally when they finally take control of the

266
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 2: House and the Senate. It comes to a stop. Mission accomplished.

267
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 2: And yeah, people ask that all the time. Would Republicans

268
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 2: really give up all that power? Yes, they would. They've

269
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 2: done it before and they will do it again. That's

270
00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 2: how much they hate this man. So we've got a

271
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 2: lot of work to do, and a lot of that

272
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,399
Speaker 2: depends upon you making sure you do your homework on

273
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,360
Speaker 2: all these Republicans running for Congress. You've got to make

274
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:14,639
Speaker 2: sure that you are voting for America first Republicans, not

275
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:18,040
Speaker 2: the establishment Republicans. I'm just going to tell you right now,

276
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 2: North Carolina, it's going to be a miracle if Michael

277
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 2: Watley wins that Senate race. It truly is. So we've

278
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,639
Speaker 2: got we've got a lot, We've got a lot to

279
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,679
Speaker 2: talk about. We've got a lot to a lot of

Speaker 2: a pass and one of their stories that came out yesterday.

287
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 2: It was disgusting. It was almost like some sort of

288
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 2: a novel where they're trying to turn these guys into

289
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 2: just unfortunate teenagers. They're not unfortunate teenagers. They're grown men.

290
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:11,840
Speaker 2: They're Jiehattist and they wanted to slaughter American conservatives on

291
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:15,280
Speaker 2: the streets of New York City. It's unbelievable. So we're

292

Speaker 2: to be able to carry that flag moving past the

310
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:21,640
Speaker 2: Trump administration? Nine oh one two six zero five nine

311
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 2: two six our number. This is the Todd Stern Show.

312
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:50,040
Speaker 2: All right, welcome back, everybody, This is the Todd Stern Show.

313
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:52,400
Speaker 2: Let's go to the phone lines nine oh one two

314
00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:56,640
Speaker 2: six zero five nine two six Mark in Florida listening

315
00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,439
Speaker 2: to us on the mighty nine ninety Mark. What's on

316
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:00,680
Speaker 2: your mind?

317
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 7: Hey, Todd devourneen. You know, Todd, for all that we know,

318
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 7: all these price pikes could be caused by the Democrats

319
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 7: and their followers to cause division and have people not

320
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 7: vote in the midterm off food and the rest of

321
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:16,959
Speaker 7: the rhinos they're seeing is an opening to sabotage twenty

322
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:22,159
Speaker 7: twenty eight. It's that simple and Todd the way I

323
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 7: see it, if we don't get out and vote in

324
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,280
Speaker 7: the midterms, most of what we've gained could be lost.

325
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 7: You already have seen what damage the Democrats are capable

326
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 7: of doing. And if we don't get out and vote

327
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 7: against them. You're selling your soul to the devil. My

328
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:38,120
Speaker 7: question is simple, Todd, what price are you willing to

329
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:42,399
Speaker 7: spend for your freedom? For your freedom gas and gas

330
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,119
Speaker 7: and food price is going up? Is not worth losing

331
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:45,719
Speaker 7: my freedom?

332
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,479
Speaker 2: Well, and you know that's exactly how people are going

333
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 2: to be voting in the midterms if if these prices

334
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 2: are still I don't and I don't think the prices

335
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,679
Speaker 2: are going to be high right. I understand gas prices

336
00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 2: are going up, still much lower than what they were

337
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 2: during the Biden administration, but those gas prices are going

338
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:06,719
Speaker 2: to come back. I will say this. Grocery prices are

339
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 2: still struggling, you know, they're still high and people are

340
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 2: complaining about that. The affordability issue I think is getting

341
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 2: under control. But mark this. The administration does have a

342
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:20,920
Speaker 2: challenge here because right now it's all about the the

343
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:27,880
Speaker 2: international crises, whether it's Venezuela, Colombia, Uh, what is it you, Iran,

344
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:31,639
Speaker 2: and of course Cuba, which apparently, according to Lindsey Graham,

345
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 2: we're about to we're about to, you know, blow up.

346
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 2: I don't know what's going on with that guy. But

347
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,920
Speaker 2: all that to say, we've got to get this administration

348
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:44,119
Speaker 2: focused back on the main narrative, which is domestic policy.

349
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 7: Yeah, gas prices here jumped up seventy five cents to

350
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:51,639
Speaker 7: a dollar here in Florida. And the thing is Trump

351
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:55,679
Speaker 7: is trump stating he's working with Venezuela. They're getting their

352
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,640
Speaker 7: equipment backed up. We're going to be getting the oil

353
00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 7: coming back in. You know, they're protecting and now so

354
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 7: the oil can get into them. I don't know what

355
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,240
Speaker 7: kind of skill's going on there, but the thing is,

356
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 7: if we don't get out both, you know, we're gonna

357
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,920
Speaker 7: lose it. And they're just trying to destroy this country?

358
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 7: Is that that's all these Democrats are trying to do.

359
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:16,119
Speaker 7: You're right, they're just trying to destroy it and sabotize it.

360
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:19,359
Speaker 7: We can't let that happen because are you ready? Is

361
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 7: this country ready to deal with what we dealt with

362
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 7: with Biden? Do you want to deal with that again?

363
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,200
Speaker 2: No? No, no, no. And it's not dealing with Biden, it's

364
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:32,399
Speaker 2: dealing with radical progressive I mean these folks. You know

365
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,720
Speaker 2: Biden was not running his White House. You have the

366
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 2: radical progressives running the White House, and you're going to

367
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 2: have them. I mean, whether it's a Kamala Harris or

368
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 2: who you will have somebody And this is going to

369
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 2: if we're not careful, the base of the party will

370
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:50,359
Speaker 2: become demoralized. And there are a lot of folks that

371
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:53,880
Speaker 2: are very upset, a lot of conservatives very upset that

372
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 2: we are we're bombing Iran. That you know, a lot

373
00:22:57,320 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 2: of people don't understand why we had to do it,

374
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 2: now what the big deal was. Also, there's some reporting

375
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:09,640
Speaker 2: out there that Israel told Obama the same thing they

376
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:13,640
Speaker 2: told Trump that if you guys, if you Americans don't

377
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:16,920
Speaker 2: start the bombing, we're going in without you. And Obama

378
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 2: called their bluff and they didn't. Of course, now is

379
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 2: a different story.

380
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:26,119
Speaker 7: Well, you got to get out and vote, these Christians,

381
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,680
Speaker 7: you got to get out and vote. And we went

382
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:32,880
Speaker 7: after Iran for a reason. Do your research, Do your

383
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:37,719
Speaker 7: research before you vote for somebody into Congress or the Senate.

384
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:42,719
Speaker 7: Do your freaking research before you put somebody in office.

385
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,199
Speaker 7: Because if you don't understand something, don't vote.

386
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 2: That's it. I mean, it's a great point. You bring up,

387
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 2: Mark and again when you go back and look at

388
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,959
Speaker 2: Iran and the history of Iran, going back to nineteen

389
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,879
Speaker 2: seventy nine, which is where our starting point is on

390
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,679
Speaker 2: all of this. This was a war that should have

391
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 2: been declared right then and there. It never was. They

392
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,679
Speaker 2: kicked the can down the road. And again it just

393
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:13,200
Speaker 2: what troubles me, Mark, is that you've got a certain

394
00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:18,720
Speaker 2: segment of the population and they're almost willing to say

395
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 2: that the moral high ground is for us not to

396
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,800
Speaker 2: attack Iran. And yet we would have to absorb some

397
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:28,840
Speaker 2: sort of a terrifying nuclear attack, a mushroom cloud over

398
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:31,399
Speaker 2: New York City or Chicago or Los Angeles. And I

399
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:35,400
Speaker 2: don't think Trump was willing to take that chance. And

400
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,480
Speaker 2: that's why he did what he did.

401
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,200
Speaker 7: If he was telling people that in nineteen seventy something,

402
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 7: remember when he was on that show talking before he

403
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:44,360
Speaker 7: even ever thought.

404
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:47,679
Speaker 2: About a president nineteen eighty, you're right, going on, yeah, no,

405
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 2: you're right, you're right, all right, Mark, Thank you for

406
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 2: the call, my friend. And Mark is right. You got

407
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 2: to do your homework at the polls. By the way,

408
00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 2: here is Senator Rick Scott from Florida, cut number nine.

409
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:00,639
Speaker 3: Now, we have to secure elections.

410
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,040
Speaker 8: If you you have, you have to show an ID

411
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 8: for almost everything in this country, show an ID to

412
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,200
Speaker 8: vote you have. You have to make sure where us

413
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 8: is and the rich to vote. So I'm gonna do

414
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 8: everything I want holding it up because I agree with you,

415
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:13,639
Speaker 8: and most Americans do.

416
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,360
Speaker 3: Eighty five percent of Americans.

417
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:18,440
Speaker 9: Believe, yeah, we should have we should we should.

418
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 3: Have proof of citizenship before we vote.

419
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:21,439
Speaker 2: So what's holding it up?

420
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:21,600
Speaker 3: Then?

421
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:23,920
Speaker 8: In the Senate, one of three things. I get to

422
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 8: sixty votes, we don't have them yet. We don't have fifty.

423
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:28,160
Speaker 8: Number two, you got to add it to a must

424
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:30,240
Speaker 8: pass bill. And number three we got to do the

425
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 8: talking filibuster. So we've got to do one of those

426
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 8: three things to get this pass. You know, the public

427
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 8: wants this done. On top of Donald Trump want and

428
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:42,200
Speaker 8: this done. And the public wants this done. Every Republican,

429
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,120
Speaker 8: Democrat and Independent needs to make sure they go vote

430
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,720
Speaker 8: for this. I have to ask your rate, call your senator,

431
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 8: all of them republic even if the people have been

432
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,399
Speaker 8: on board, say you've got to get this done. And

433
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,239
Speaker 8: call every Democrat senator say, if you believe in this

434
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 8: country and you what safe elections, you have got to

435
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,399
Speaker 8: get this bill passed. And just what they if you

436
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:02,760
Speaker 8: keep telling everybody do.

437
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:03,400
Speaker 3: It, they'll do it.

438
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,879
Speaker 8: Do you expect to talking for guys, you can't have

439
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,600
Speaker 8: a talking filibuster until the Department of Homeland Security is open.

440
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:13,399
Speaker 8: I'm told, well, then it's right, very important that we

441
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 8: get homeland security. I mean, you can look at the

442
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 8: airports at the risk of this country. What the Democrats

443
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 8: are doing. They don't care about Americans citizens. They don't

444
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,919
Speaker 8: care about the risk of a drone attack in this

445
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,679
Speaker 8: country or somebody doing a ID like they did in

446
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 8: New York City.

447
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 3: They don't care. But we do.

448
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 8: We've got to figure out how to get this done.

449
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:31,960
Speaker 8: I think what's going to put the presh on is

450
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,680
Speaker 8: when these airports are just packed with people that can't fly.

451
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 8: It's the reason we got the government open to the fall.

452
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 8: The same thing will happen this time. I don't get

453
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 8: what the Democrats are doing.

454
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 2: All right, there you have it, Senator. Look, I appreciate

455
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 2: what Senator Scott is trying to say here, but again

456
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:52,120
Speaker 2: the issue is are we going to get it done

457
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,760
Speaker 2: or not? And if John Thune is holding all of

458
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:57,160
Speaker 2: this up, I mean he's the majority leader. The bunk

459
00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:00,520
Speaker 2: stops with him. So if he's not budget it is

460
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 2: up to Marsha Blackburn and Bill Haggerty and Tom Cotton

461
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 2: and Rake Scott and Ted Cruz for all of them

462
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 2: to come out openly condemning their leadership. Nobody's done that

463
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:18,160
Speaker 2: because nobody wants to upset the Apple card in the Senate.

464
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 2: So so now we just have this gridlock. And I

465
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:23,520
Speaker 2: know that people want to go out there and blame

466
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:27,000
Speaker 2: the Democrats. It's not the Democrats, it's the Republicans. It's

467
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:30,760
Speaker 2: the Republicans. By the way, Senator Lindsey Graham, I want

468
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:32,560
Speaker 2: to get your thoughts on this that the guy may

469
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:35,400
Speaker 2: as well be a Fox News host. Some people call

470
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 2: him Lady Graham. That's a conversation for another time off

471
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 2: the air. Anyway, Lindsey Graham is demanding. He's been demanding

472
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 2: that we bomb Iran for years, and now he wants

473
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:53,760
Speaker 2: us to go into a Cuba. So anyway, here he

474
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 2: is now talking about the Middle East, and Lindsey Graham

475
00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 2: is upset. Are you ready for this? Well, I'm going

476
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 2: to play and then we'll go back and rehash what

477
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:03,800
Speaker 2: he had to say. Cut fine, please up to.

478
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:07,119
Speaker 10: Our allies, step up, get our air bases out of Spain.

479
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,920
Speaker 3: They're not reliable. Move all those airplanes.

480
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,880
Speaker 10: To a country that would let us use them when

481
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 10: we're threatened by a regime like Iran. To our friends

482
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:17,040
Speaker 10: in Spain, men, you have lost your way. I don't

483
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:19,959
Speaker 10: want to do business with you anymore. I want our bases,

484
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:23,399
Speaker 10: our air bases, out of Spain into a country that

485
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:25,720
Speaker 10: will let us chose them. To our air friends, I've

486
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:28,400
Speaker 10: tried to help you construct a new Mideast.

487
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:29,720
Speaker 3: You need to up your game here.

488
00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:32,360
Speaker 10: I can't go to South Carolina and say we're fighting

489
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 10: and you won't publicly fight what you're doing behind the scenes.

490
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 10: That has to stop the double dealing of the air

491
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 10: world when it comes to this stuff. Needs Then I

492
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 10: go back to South Carolina. I'm asking them to send

493
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:45,000
Speaker 10: their sons and daughters over to the Mid East.

494
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:46,840
Speaker 3: What I want you to do in the Mid East.

495
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 10: To our friends in Sardy, Raven and other places, step

496
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 10: forward and.

497
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 3: Say this is my fight too. I join America.

498
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 10: I'm publicly involved in bringing this regime down. If you don't,

499
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 10: you're making a great mistake and you're going to cut

500
00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 10: off the ability to have a better relatelationship with the

501
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 10: United States.

502
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:02,600
Speaker 3: I say this as a friend.

503
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,680
Speaker 2: All right, There you have it, Lady Graham, from South Carolina.

504
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 2: A couple of thoughts here. So first of all, I'm

505
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:14,239
Speaker 2: just curious what exactly do the sons and daughters of

506
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 2: South Carolina think about that, that idea you heard Lindsay Graham, Right, Well,

507
00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 2: our Arab neighbors, they're just they're just not willing to

508
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,080
Speaker 2: get out there from behind the shatters and get out

509
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 2: there and fight. So we're going to have to send

510
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 2: the sons and the daughters of South Carolina to get

511
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 2: out there and fight on their behalf. Uh yeah, I

512
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 2: got a problem with that. To be perfectly blunt about it.

513
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:47,120
Speaker 2: I had a problem with that idea back when we

514
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:51,960
Speaker 2: invaded Iraq, right, Remember that nobody in I Rock wanted

515
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 2: to fight for their freedom nobody. So what happened, Well,

516
00:29:55,360 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 2: George w and the military industrial complex, they and over

517
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 2: all of our sons and daughters to go and fight,

518
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 2: and many of them did not come back, and many

519
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:09,680
Speaker 2: of those who did came back missing limbs. And I'm

520
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 2: just going to be as blun as I can be

521
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 2: right now, Iran has been attacking a lot of these

522
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 2: Arab nations. It's up to the Arab nations to fight back.

523
00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:21,160
Speaker 2: And if the Arab nations don't want to fight back,

524
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:25,440
Speaker 2: Ladies and gentlemen, Why should we Why should we risk

525
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:30,400
Speaker 2: American treasure over there? Why should we do that? There

526
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:33,800
Speaker 2: are some people out there that agree with everything Lindsey

527
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 2: Graham said. But I've got a problem sending America's sons

528
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 2: and daughters to fight somebody else's war. Big problem. And

529
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,240
Speaker 2: by the way, what is this, what is this? How

530
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 2: difficult is it for us to say no boots on

531
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 2: the ground, Because I'm hearing every single day more rumblings

532
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:56,280
Speaker 2: inside our nation's capital that that is a very real

533
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 2: possibility that we could have American troops boots on the ground.

534
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:03,959
Speaker 2: I don't think that's going to go over well with

535
00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 2: what's left of the MAGA coalition. Here's Lindsay Graham again,

536
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:10,000
Speaker 2: cut number four.

537
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 10: All the anti Seminis, to all the isolationists, I don't believe,

538
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 10: forget it. I'm not with you. I'm with Israel. I'll

539
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:20,560
Speaker 10: be with Israel to our dying day. They're the best

540
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:22,720
Speaker 10: ally we could owe for. So we have a commander

541
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,200
Speaker 10: chief in President Trump, who I think is Ronald W.

542
00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 3: Reagan plus plus plus.

543
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,960
Speaker 2: I just don't like all you anti Seminits out there,

544
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 2: You anti seminits. I'm not with you. I'm with Israel

545
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:40,560
Speaker 2: until my dying day. Okay, I get that, But I'm

546
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 2: just I'm not sincing. I've never heard Lindsay Graham actually

547
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:48,760
Speaker 2: use I bear with me for a moment. I've never

548
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,200
Speaker 2: heard him use that sort of language or passion when

549
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 2: talking about the United States of America. And isn't that

550
00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 2: the country that he represents. By the way, Lindsay Graham

551
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 2: out there talking about how he's going out and he's

552
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 2: making all these deals, telling the Saudi Arabians this, and

553
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:11,280
Speaker 2: the United Arab Emirates this. Okay, when John Kerry was

554
00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 2: doing that, we said that was a violation of the

555
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:17,160
Speaker 2: Logan Act. So I'm just wondering exactly who is giving

556
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,360
Speaker 2: Lindsey Graham all of this authority to go out and

557
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 2: make deals with foreign countries, Because if you read the

558
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 2: Logan Act, even lawmakers elected senators and congress peoples, even

559
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 2: lawmakers can be held accountable under the Logan Act. Something's

560
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 2: weird there. And all I'm telling you is that Israel

561
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:45,320
Speaker 2: is our most cherished ally, but we still have to

562
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 2: put America first, right nine oh one two six zero

563
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:52,120
Speaker 2: five nine two six Our telephone number. That's nine oh

564
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:55,760
Speaker 2: one two six zero five, nine two six. This is

565
00:32:55,760 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 2: the Todd Sterns Show, and welcome back everybody. It is

566
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:17,160
Speaker 2: the Todd Stearns Radio Show. You've got to be working

567
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,960
Speaker 2: those lines today. We've got to be calling Campitol Hill,

568
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 2: and we've got to insist that these Republicans get the

569
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:27,280
Speaker 2: Save Act, the Save America Act passed. You know, President

570
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 2: Trump yesterday was really sort of bothered. He said it

571
00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:33,360
Speaker 2: was a He blasted the original name. It was called

572
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 2: the Save Act, and he said nobody knew what they

573
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:39,600
Speaker 2: were saving. So the President called it the Save America Act.

574
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:43,000
Speaker 2: And well, now the rest is history. As you know,

575
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,440
Speaker 2: nine oh one two six zero five nine two six

576
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 2: is our telephone number. That's nine oh one two six

577
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:54,080
Speaker 2: zero five, nine to six. Man, are you stuck at

578
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 2: an airport? Have you been stuck at the airport? This

579
00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:01,800
Speaker 2: is insane. So the Democrats were refused to reopen Homeland Security.

580
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 2: Keep in mind that a portion of the Department of

581
00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:06,480
Speaker 2: Homeland Security has been shut down for a couple of

582
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:12,880
Speaker 2: weeks now, and even though DHS is funded, TSA workers

583
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:17,160
Speaker 2: are not getting paychecks, and you've got people that are

584
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:21,320
Speaker 2: waiting in line upwards of what four or five hours.

585
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:25,360
Speaker 2: This has just really been insane. Take a listen to

586
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:29,760
Speaker 2: cut number sixteen this morning.

587
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:34,080
Speaker 11: As spring break travel ramps up, chaos at multiple US airports,

588
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:38,719
Speaker 11: travelers facing hours long delays during this partial government shutdown.

589
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:42,240
Speaker 11: Funding for the Homeland Security Department, which includes the TSA,

590
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 11: expired last month, meaning TSA officers for this second time

591
00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:50,480
Speaker 11: in six months, are being forced to work without pay,

592
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:54,720
Speaker 11: prompting more agents to call out sick. That's causing delays

593
00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 11: of up to three hours in security lines, including here

594
00:34:58,120 --> 00:34:58,680
Speaker 11: in Houston.

595
00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,839
Speaker 12: We got here at t My flight was departing at

596
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:03,560
Speaker 12: one point fifty and we're not going to make that here.

597
00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:05,840
Speaker 5: The guy said to me, heads up, it's a mess

598
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:06,680
Speaker 5: down there, man.

599
00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:07,319
Speaker 13: He was right.

600
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:11,440
Speaker 11: In New Orleans, lines stretched through multiple floors and into

601
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:14,799
Speaker 11: the parking garage. The disruptions come as airlines brace for

602
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:17,840
Speaker 11: a four percent increase in spring break travelers compared to

603
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 11: last year. That's nearly three million passengers expected each day.

604
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:27,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's it's not getting any better. And this

605
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 2: is going to be going on for a while. And

606
00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 2: so the Democrats are like, yeah, tough cookies, now understand this.

607
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:34,840
Speaker 2: We've got chaos at airports. We have a lot of

608
00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:40,560
Speaker 2: severe storms, tornadoes ravaging places like Michigan, for example, and

609
00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:44,480
Speaker 2: then you have these domestic terrorist attacks in New York

610
00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 2: City and homeland security is hamstrung because the Democrats refuse,

611
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:56,439
Speaker 2: refuse to fund DHS. This is just unacceptable, but this

612
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,760
Speaker 2: is the reality of where we are. These Democrats hate you, ladies.

613
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 2: Have you noticed that there's like a theme in Washington,

614
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:06,520
Speaker 2: d c. Once you get elected. Once you get elected,

615
00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:09,960
Speaker 2: you just turn your back on the American people that

616
00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:12,640
Speaker 2: sent you to Washington in the first place. And I'm

617
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:14,719
Speaker 2: telling you right now, folks, we've got to put a

618
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 2: stop to that. And we have the power to put

619
00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:19,520
Speaker 2: a stop to that by sending these people back home.

620
00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 2: You good people in Texas have illustrated that with Steve

621
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:29,120
Speaker 2: Toath again, Dan Crenshaw off his rocker and he got

622
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 2: sent packing. So now you've got Steve Toath, who's going

623
00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:35,000
Speaker 2: to be your new congressman, hopefully if he wins the

624
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:39,439
Speaker 2: general election there and by May we could find out

625
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:42,399
Speaker 2: if you guys are going to have an America first

626
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 2: Senator by the name of Ken Paxton. All right, nine

627
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,760
Speaker 2: oh one two six zero five nine two six are number.

628
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:51,960
Speaker 2: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.

629
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:55,560
Speaker 2: I've got to tell you about Field of Greens man.

630
00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 2: It's things are looking up on the the weight loss

631
00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:01,759
Speaker 2: campaign and they say in a couple of weeks you'll

632
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:05,600
Speaker 2: be able to start telling hey, Sterns, you're losing weight. Sterns.

633
00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 2: Right now, I'm not at that stage. But let me

634
00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:11,359
Speaker 2: tell you something. We've been doing it with Caltron with

635
00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 2: my PhD weight loss and one of the healthier options

636
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:18,760
Speaker 2: is something called Field of Greens. And Field of Greens

637
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:23,480
Speaker 2: designed every fruit, vegetable, every vegetable that's included in this

638
00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 2: is designed to support your cells, your heart, lung, kidneys,

639
00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:30,600
Speaker 2: and healthy weight. In fact, a university study actually found

640
00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:34,560
Speaker 2: that people who only added Field of Greens saw measurable

641
00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:40,800
Speaker 2: improvements in key health markers. Just one change literally changed everything.

642
00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,720
Speaker 2: And that's why I want you to check out Field

643
00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:46,120
Speaker 2: of Greens. You can do that by going to fieldogreens

00:37:57,560 --> 00:37:59,640
Speaker 2: All right, got to take a quick break here, folks.

648
00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:02,359
Speaker 2: Doctor Robert Jeffers coming up next.

649
00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:25,080
Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's

650
00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:29,239
Speaker 1: common sense conservative commentary from Todd Stars That.

651
00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:41,040
Speaker 2: American and Hello everybody. Welcome to the Todd Stearns Radio program.

652
00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:43,239
Speaker 2: What an honor to have you with us today. And

653
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:47,120
Speaker 2: what a busy day it's been. It's only Tuesday, a

654
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:50,000
Speaker 2: very busy day. Write down our telephone number. You will

655
00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,920
Speaker 2: need this if you plan on calling into the show.

656
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:56,000
Speaker 2: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.

657
00:38:56,080 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 2: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six. Well,

658
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:04,399
Speaker 2: as I mentioned there is, there's a lot of controversy

659
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,080
Speaker 2: right now in the state of Texas, a lot of conversations,

660
00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:11,360
Speaker 2: a lot of debates over the Democrat nominee for the

661
00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:14,680
Speaker 2: US Senate, a guy by the name of James Tallerico

662
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:21,440
Speaker 2: who has cloaked himself in the LGBT rainbow flag. He

663
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 2: is a Presbyterian theologian, and he is making all sorts

664
00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:30,719
Speaker 2: of headlines for all the wrong reasons. I could think

665
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,880
Speaker 2: of no better person to help us understand exactly what

666
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:37,359
Speaker 2: is going on and who this guy is than our

667
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:39,560
Speaker 2: good friend. He is the pastor of the Great First

668
00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 2: Baptist Church in Dallas, Texas. Also, he has a great

669
00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:48,560
Speaker 2: new book on miracles coming out in September called Divine Invasions,

670
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:52,239
Speaker 2: Doctor Robert Jeffers, Doctor Jeffers, good to have you on

671
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:52,920
Speaker 2: the show today.

672
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:54,919
Speaker 13: Great to be back with you, Todd.

673
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:55,880
Speaker 6: Thanks for having me.

674
00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,839
Speaker 2: You know, doctor Jeffers, I want to talk about your

675
00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:03,080
Speaker 2: book in just a moment. But first, James Tallerrico, this

676
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:06,720
Speaker 2: guy claims to, you know, be the spokesman I guess

677
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:10,440
Speaker 2: we Christianity, and he's got some pretty far fetched ideas

678
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:14,520
Speaker 2: when it comes to God being non binary, suggesting that

679
00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 2: the virgin birth is an example of why the Bible

680
00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:21,920
Speaker 2: is pro abortion. What say you, well, I what.

681
00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:26,600
Speaker 6: Say me is maloney. The fact is this guy is

682
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:29,640
Speaker 6: a wolf in sheep's clothing, and you know, he is

683
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:34,640
Speaker 6: so appealing. He's very eloquent, he's pleasant natured, and you know,

684
00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:40,439
Speaker 6: the un discerning voter might say, what, that's a nice guy.

685
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:43,640
Speaker 6: And he's gone to the seminary. He must know the Bible,

686
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:47,560
Speaker 6: and he's talking about Jesus and things we believe in.

687
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:50,840
Speaker 6: But you have to listen very carefully to what he's saying.

688
00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:54,520
Speaker 6: Here's the thing about progressive theologians, Todd. They use our

689
00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:59,239
Speaker 6: same vocabulary, but they don't use the same dictionary. Their

690
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:03,200
Speaker 6: words means something different. For example, when they talk about salvation,

691
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,600
Speaker 6: they're not talking about salvation from Hell. They're talking about

692
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:10,319
Speaker 6: salvation from the hell of the inequality. When they talk

693
00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:14,120
Speaker 6: about Jesus, they're not talking about the Jesus of the Bible.

694
00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:18,120
Speaker 6: They're talking about the Jesus of their imagination. They're talking

695
00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:20,680
Speaker 6: about what they wish Jesus had said, not what he

696
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:24,760
Speaker 6: actually said. And when they talk about the value of Christianity,

697
00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 6: they say Christianity is a path to God, but they

698
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,359
Speaker 6: don't say it's the only path to God. They say

699
00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 6: it's one of many paths to God. I mean this guy,

700
00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:40,320
Speaker 6: Tyler Rico, he said Hinduism, Islam, Buddhism, these are different

701
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:43,240
Speaker 6: paths to God. And he said he's on the Christian path,

702
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:46,360
Speaker 6: but all paths lead to the same God. That is

703
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:49,719
Speaker 6: heresy and he needs to be rejected out rightly for.

704
00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:53,160
Speaker 2: What he's saying. You know, some of his comments regarding,

705
00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:57,440
Speaker 2: for example, transgenderism, where he actually said, I think the

706
00:41:57,560 --> 00:41:59,160
Speaker 2: question was you know when you know when you don't

707
00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:01,399
Speaker 2: think about your family you don't think about your close friends.

708
00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:03,399
Speaker 2: What do you think about And the first thing he said,

709
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:05,960
Speaker 2: transgender kids, What do you make of that?

710
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:09,839
Speaker 6: Well, he's really hung up on this. And you know

711
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:14,399
Speaker 6: he says they're not two genders, there may be six genders. Well,

712
00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:17,880
Speaker 6: the Jesus, whom he says he loves and follows, I

713
00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:21,399
Speaker 6: beg to differ. You know. In Matthew nineteen, Jesus said

714
00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:27,040
Speaker 6: to the Pharisees, God made them male and female, two genders.

715
00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:31,600
Speaker 6: And when he says God is not binary, well it's true.

716
00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:35,040
Speaker 6: God is neither male nor female. But his son Jesus

717
00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,719
Speaker 6: came in the form of a male, and Jesus taught

718
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:41,800
Speaker 6: us that God has made mankind binary male or female.

719
00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:44,520
Speaker 6: So again, all we have to do is test what

720
00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:47,759
Speaker 6: this heretic is saying against the truth of scripture.

721
00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:50,960
Speaker 2: Doctor Robert Jeffers joining us, the pastor of the First

722
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 2: Baptist Church in Dallas, Texas. You know, it's interesting when

723
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:58,479
Speaker 2: you see all the political maneuvering happening in the state

724
00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:03,400
Speaker 2: right now. Of course, that contention a Republican primary, Doctor Jeffers,

725
00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:06,960
Speaker 2: you're looking towards the midterms. What are you hearing from

726
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:09,879
Speaker 2: the congregation there. What are you hearing from people there

727
00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:12,680
Speaker 2: in Texas about the big issues on their minds?

728
00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:16,600
Speaker 6: Well, one thing I'm hearing, and I don't lagle myself

729
00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:19,600
Speaker 6: as a Republican. I'm an independent. I vote for the

730
00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:23,719
Speaker 6: candidate I think best represents biblical values. But what I

731
00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:28,120
Speaker 6: hear from people like me in our congregation is whomever

732
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:31,960
Speaker 6: is the Republican nominee, We've got to get somebody who

733
00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:35,520
Speaker 6: can defeat James Tallerico. I mean, I think there's a

734
00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:39,840
Speaker 6: very real possibility of losing the state of Texas turning

735
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:43,719
Speaker 6: up purple turning up blue if the wrong person is elected.

736
00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:47,040
Speaker 6: And so there are no perfect candidates. But we need

737
00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,600
Speaker 6: to look for one, yes, that votes like we do

738
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:52,799
Speaker 6: and upholds our values. But we need one that can win.

739
00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:56,200
Speaker 6: And I hope Texas Republicans will make the right choice

740
00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:56,560
Speaker 6: in that.

741
00:43:56,680 --> 00:43:59,760
Speaker 2: You know, doctor Jeffers, There's a congressman out of Tennessee.

742
00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:02,879
Speaker 2: Has name is Andy Ogles, and he's making a lot

743
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:06,600
Speaker 2: of headlines. He's calling for the deportation of all Muslims

744
00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:10,880
Speaker 2: in America. After the terrorist attacks in New York City,

745
00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:14,040
Speaker 2: they still have not qualified what happened in Austin Texas

746
00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:17,359
Speaker 2: to be a terrorist attack, but all the indications are

747
00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:20,800
Speaker 2: certainly there. What do you say to people who want

748
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:24,160
Speaker 2: to deport all of the Muslims. A lot of folks

749
00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:26,279
Speaker 2: will push back and say, wait a second, we've got

750
00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:27,800
Speaker 2: freedom of religion here.

751
00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:31,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'd say be careful of asking for that, because

752
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:35,080
Speaker 6: the day may come somebody wants to deport all Christians,

753
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:38,920
Speaker 6: and as we further fall into a minority status, I

754
00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:41,759
Speaker 6: think we need to be real careful. Look, Islam is

755
00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:45,040
Speaker 6: a false religion. I talked about it on Sunday in

756
00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:49,160
Speaker 6: my sermon. A false prophet named Mohammad claimed Gabriel gave

757
00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:53,320
Speaker 6: him this revelation that became the Qur'an. It's a false

758
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:56,919
Speaker 6: book built on the premise that Muslims ought to kill

759
00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:00,319
Speaker 6: the infidels, which would be you and me and ju use.

760
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:06,560
Speaker 6: It is a religion of violence. Now, most Muslims are

761
00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:09,799
Speaker 6: not violent people, very few of them are violent. But

762
00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:12,600
Speaker 6: of one point five billion Muslims in the world, if

763
00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:16,359
Speaker 6: only one percent are radicalized, that's something very scary, and

764
00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:20,240
Speaker 6: we need to understand how wrong Islam is. But Todd

765
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:24,080
Speaker 6: tolerance means giving people the right to be wrong, and

766
00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:27,319
Speaker 6: I do believe that if we infringe on people's right

767
00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:31,240
Speaker 6: to believe the wrong thing, to embrace a heresy like Islam,

768
00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:34,319
Speaker 6: if we try to outlaw that, it will boomerang on

769
00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:38,480
Speaker 6: it on us. I believe that our forefathers bled and

770
00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:42,839
Speaker 6: died to found a Christian nation, but a nation that

771
00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:46,879
Speaker 6: exercises tolerance and the allowance of people to be wrong

772
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:48,000
Speaker 6: in their belief in God.

773
00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:50,879
Speaker 2: It does seem to be especially in Texas, where there's

774
00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:53,440
Speaker 2: I guess here lately there's been a lot of concern

775
00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:57,120
Speaker 2: over the number of mosques that are being built, and

776
00:45:57,160 --> 00:46:00,560
Speaker 2: it certainly seems as though that's to accommodate law larger

777
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:04,799
Speaker 2: populations of Muslims coming into the country and coming into

778
00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:05,760
Speaker 2: the state of Texas.

779
00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:09,960
Speaker 6: Well. I mean, we've got, you know, what some people

780
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:13,680
Speaker 6: would consider some mooney been Christians, And from a nunbeliever's

781
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:17,520
Speaker 6: point of view, Christians look like they're insane having their

782
00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:20,600
Speaker 6: own way of worship and what they do on Sundays

783
00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:25,000
Speaker 6: or don't do. But remember, Christians have no right to

784
00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:27,680
Speaker 6: follow a legal system that is in opposition to the

785
00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:32,600
Speaker 6: congregation of the Constitution, and in the same way Muslims,

786
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:35,400
Speaker 6: they can set up whatever mosque they want to, and

787
00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:38,120
Speaker 6: whatever systems of behavior they want to, but what they

788
00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:41,720
Speaker 6: can't do is violate the constitution of the United States

789
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:44,480
Speaker 6: of America. And I think that's clear and needs to

790
00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:48,160
Speaker 6: continue to be made clear. There is no sanctuary city

791
00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:52,839
Speaker 6: or sanctuary mosque or sanctuary church. We all live under

792
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:55,320
Speaker 6: the laws of the United States of America.

793
00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:58,839
Speaker 2: You have a brand new book coming out in September.

794
00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:04,440
Speaker 2: It's called it's called Divine Invasions. Tell us what an

795
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:07,320
Speaker 2: unusual What an unusual title for a book.

796
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:11,000
Speaker 6: Well, it's a hope filled book about God who is

797
00:47:11,040 --> 00:47:13,680
Speaker 6: still at work today. You know, I grew up in

798
00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:18,120
Speaker 6: a theological tradition that taught that seemingly miracles were over.

799
00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:20,720
Speaker 6: They were just for the first century before the Bible

800
00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:25,000
Speaker 6: was written, and there's no need for miracles today and

801
00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:28,200
Speaker 6: the only miracles that may occur in third world countries. Well,

802
00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:29,320
Speaker 6: I don't believe that, Todd.

803
00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:30,400
Speaker 13: I believe God.

804
00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:34,520
Speaker 6: Is the same. I believe he performs miracles a provision

805
00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:38,760
Speaker 6: of protection of providence. And this is a book about

806
00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:42,600
Speaker 6: how to discern real miracles from unreal miracles. So I

807
00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:44,680
Speaker 6: hope I'll be back with you in September to talk

808
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:47,920
Speaker 6: about the book when it comes out. But we had

809
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:52,560
Speaker 6: an interesting opportunity Thursday to go to the Oval Office

810
00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:56,239
Speaker 6: and pray for President Trump, and I'll just give you

811
00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:59,600
Speaker 6: the report of frontline view of how the war's going.

812
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 6: He told us, quote, we are kicking ass. I was

813
00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:07,319
Speaker 6: a little hesitant to share that with my congregation, but

814
00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:11,319
Speaker 6: somebody reminded me ass is a biblical word. So we

815
00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:14,000
Speaker 6: need to continue to pray for President Trump and for

816
00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:17,399
Speaker 6: our troops in this important action. I got to say

817
00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:20,160
Speaker 6: to the president. You know, mister President, we are here

818
00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:23,480
Speaker 6: to thank you for your courage in pushing back not

819
00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:27,640
Speaker 6: against another nation or even another religion. You are pushing

820
00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:31,280
Speaker 6: it back against evil itself. This is a war between

821
00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:34,880
Speaker 6: good and evil, and I think this is the case

822
00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:37,080
Speaker 6: and why we all need to be in prayer for

823
00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:40,160
Speaker 6: our great president and for our troops around the world.

824
00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:43,160
Speaker 2: I'm stunned. I've never heard such language coming out of

825
00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:45,920
Speaker 2: the mouth of a pastor before, a Baptist. I was

826
00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:49,080
Speaker 2: just quoting. I was just quoting. By the way, did

827
00:48:49,120 --> 00:48:52,400
Speaker 2: he give you any shoes? We've been hearing reports.

828
00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:55,240
Speaker 6: You know, I felt jip I didn't get my Floorsheim's shoes.

829
00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:58,080
Speaker 6: I'm gonna have to. He gave me a nice challenge coin,

830
00:48:58,160 --> 00:48:59,840
Speaker 6: but I'm gonna have to ask for some shoes.

831
00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:02,640
Speaker 2: So I got one of those challenge coins when I

832
00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:05,200
Speaker 2: was there. And it's so funny. I had a little

833
00:49:05,200 --> 00:49:09,240
Speaker 2: PTSD because I read a piece yesterday that the President

834
00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:12,400
Speaker 2: really pays attention to the shine on his shoes, and

835
00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:15,320
Speaker 2: I thought, oh boy, I forgot to shine my shoes

836
00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:17,920
Speaker 2: when I went into the Oval Office. I hope I

837
00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:19,759
Speaker 2: didn't have a bad impression there.

838
00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:22,920
Speaker 6: He does notice the little things as well as the

839
00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:23,319
Speaker 6: big thing.

840
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:26,600
Speaker 2: Boy, he certainly does. He certainly does. Oh my goodness, well,

841
00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:28,719
Speaker 2: doctor Jeffers, we're so glad that you were able to

842
00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:31,040
Speaker 2: get to see the President, and we know you've been

843
00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:34,560
Speaker 2: a great friend to him and a great counselor as well.

844
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:37,759
Speaker 2: And we look forward to the book coming out in September.

845
00:49:38,600 --> 00:49:39,600
Speaker 6: Thank you for having me.

846
00:49:39,680 --> 00:49:43,200
Speaker 2: Todd really appreciate it, all right, the great doctor Robert Jeffers, everybody,

847
00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:45,799
Speaker 2: pastor of the First Baptist Church in Dallas, Texas. A

848
00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:47,759
Speaker 2: great new book coming on at September. We'll get him

849
00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:50,360
Speaker 2: back between now and then, but we certainly I have

850
00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:52,160
Speaker 2: every single one of his books I have in my

851
00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:55,680
Speaker 2: library so he is a great, great writer and a

852
00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:58,200
Speaker 2: great Bible teacher. All right, got to take a break

853
00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:00,640
Speaker 2: here of folks. Nine oh one two six zero five

854
00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:15,760
Speaker 2: nine two six. This is the Todd Stern Show. All right,

855
00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:20,400
Speaker 2: welcome back to the ton Searns Radio Show. So, I

856
00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:23,480
Speaker 2: don't know if you've been following this story out of Iran,

857
00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:28,800
Speaker 2: where there are allegations the United States accidentally bombed a

858
00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:33,040
Speaker 2: school and killed a bunch of kids. Now, the President

859
00:50:33,160 --> 00:50:37,279
Speaker 2: was asked about this yesterday and the President said, look,

860
00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:40,560
Speaker 2: I don't think we did this. I believe he said

861
00:50:40,880 --> 00:50:44,680
Speaker 2: he believes Iran is responsible. Then he said, I don't know.

862
00:50:45,080 --> 00:50:48,120
Speaker 2: I just don't know enough about it. I think it's

863
00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:52,160
Speaker 2: something that I was told was under investigation. So that's

864
00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:54,839
Speaker 2: been the administration. And then the President wanted to say, hey,

865
00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:59,600
Speaker 2: look tomahawks were used, but other nations used tomahawks, and

866
00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:04,120
Speaker 2: he doesn't seem to think that it was us. Then

867
00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:09,120
Speaker 2: Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana comes out yesterday and he

868
00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:13,000
Speaker 2: tells reporters, Oh, yeah, we did it. We bombed the girls'

869
00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:15,600
Speaker 2: school in Iran. It was terrible. We made a mistake.

870
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:19,040
Speaker 2: Other countries do that sort of thing. Intentionally like Russia,

871
00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:23,520
Speaker 2: we would never do that intentionally. I think the Department

872
00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:29,239
Speaker 2: is investigating it now. So look, terrible tragedy, no doubt

873
00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:31,560
Speaker 2: about it. But I'm just wondering, and some of you

874
00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:35,560
Speaker 2: old timers will remember. I have to think that back

875
00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:39,760
Speaker 2: during World War Two, there were many, many, many bombs dropped,

876
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:43,600
Speaker 2: and I'm wondering, did the United States ever apologize for

877
00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:46,720
Speaker 2: any of the bombs that were dropped that took out,

878
00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:52,320
Speaker 2: you know, inadvertently civilian civilian buildings, like a school or

879
00:51:52,360 --> 00:51:57,880
Speaker 2: a hospital or a church. I don't recall that happening.

880
00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:01,719
Speaker 2: What about during the in conflict as they call it,

881
00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:09,440
Speaker 2: or Vietnam. So anyway, a lot of people are very

882
00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:12,879
Speaker 2: upset about this. They're calling the United States immoral. They're

883
00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:17,719
Speaker 2: saying that we should pay reparations. I'm looking at this,

884
00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:20,520
Speaker 2: I mean as a terrible tragedy. But ladies and gentlemen,

885
00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:24,600
Speaker 2: I mean, we are in a war against Iran. Well

886
00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:27,319
Speaker 2: it's really not there. They're pushing back now, they're not

887
00:52:27,360 --> 00:52:31,200
Speaker 2: calling it a war. We're in an operation with Iran.

888
00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:37,239
Speaker 2: So anyway, we'll follow that story. It's it's troubling and

889
00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:41,120
Speaker 2: it's an unfortunate set of circumstances. But the reality is

890
00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:45,719
Speaker 2: horrible things happen in conflicts like wars. I'm gonna call

891
00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:47,719
Speaker 2: it a war because it's a war. I mean, we're

892
00:52:47,719 --> 00:52:50,200
Speaker 2: blowing a lot of stuff up. Nine oh one two

893
00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:52,799
Speaker 2: six zero five nine two six are number. That's nine

894
00:52:52,840 --> 00:52:56,719
Speaker 2: oh one two six zero five nine two six. Rampaul

895
00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:01,640
Speaker 2: is now saying that he doesn't believe Donald Trump's reason

896
00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:08,400
Speaker 2: for going into Iran. Does that matter to you at all? Again?

897
00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:10,560
Speaker 2: For me, I think we should have been We should

898
00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:13,640
Speaker 2: have gone into Iran a long time ago. So now

899
00:53:13,640 --> 00:53:16,640
Speaker 2: that we're there, we're there, let's get it done. Let's

900
00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:20,520
Speaker 2: accomplish whatever mission needs to be accomplished, and then go

901
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:23,080
Speaker 2: back home. I mean, it seems to me that's the

902
00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:27,640
Speaker 2: right thing to do. Here, I want to play some audio,

903
00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:33,240
Speaker 2: this again from Well let's see here, Jonathan Carl from

904
00:53:33,560 --> 00:53:37,840
Speaker 2: ABC News giving the president a little bit of a compliment.

905
00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:38,520
Speaker 2: Take a listen.

906
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:43,000
Speaker 14: I've covered five different presidents. I have never seen one

907
00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:46,520
Speaker 14: other than Donald Trump, who regularly takes phone calls from reporters.

908
00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:48,680
Speaker 13: So I thought I would talk a little bit about that.

909
00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:53,960
Speaker 14: I've spoken to him over the phone three times since

910
00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:59,759
Speaker 14: the military operation. The war against Iran started and each

911
00:53:59,800 --> 00:54:02,920
Speaker 14: of the cases I simply called him and he answered.

912
00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:05,400
Speaker 14: Some of the conversations are short, some of them can

913
00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:09,279
Speaker 14: be quite lengthy. I talked to him today during the

914
00:54:09,320 --> 00:54:13,720
Speaker 14: middle of the afternoon and the call lasted for about

915
00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:17,120
Speaker 14: twenty minutes. When I called, I was actually calling to

916
00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:21,000
Speaker 14: ask him because if he was firing Christinome, because ABC

917
00:54:21,160 --> 00:54:22,920
Speaker 14: News was about to report.

918
00:54:22,600 --> 00:54:23,480
Speaker 2: That had happened.

919
00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:27,239
Speaker 14: And it turned out that he was. As I was

920
00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:30,600
Speaker 14: talking to him, reviewing the statement that he would put

921
00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:34,439
Speaker 14: out saying that she was leaving office, and he told

922
00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:37,600
Speaker 14: me he was sitting there with Marco Rubio and he

923
00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:40,680
Speaker 14: started to read the statement to me, and then he

924
00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:45,120
Speaker 14: pressed to send and said, look, you can see it now.

925
00:54:45,239 --> 00:54:47,839
Speaker 14: You can see it now. And sure enough, while we

926
00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:50,880
Speaker 14: were talking, it appeared on True Social him saying that

927
00:54:51,520 --> 00:54:54,480
Speaker 14: Christy Nooam was leaving and being replaced by Mark Wayne Mullen.

928
00:54:55,800 --> 00:55:00,760
Speaker 14: The conversation then turned to Iran, obviously the really big

929
00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:04,960
Speaker 14: story and major decision which made define not just his

930
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:10,759
Speaker 14: presidency but his entire political career, and I have to

931
00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:15,560
Speaker 14: say he just sounded incredibly triumphant. He said to me,

932
00:55:15,760 --> 00:55:19,400
Speaker 14: they're calling me the goat greatest of all time. And

933
00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:21,840
Speaker 14: he asked me, then this again, this is one of

934
00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:26,359
Speaker 14: the unusual things. He asked me if I thought it

935
00:55:26,480 --> 00:55:31,319
Speaker 14: was impressive, meaning the war, He said, what do you make?

936
00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:35,800
Speaker 14: What do you think of the performance? He clearly feels

937
00:55:36,920 --> 00:55:41,200
Speaker 14: that he is a president right now that is almost

938
00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:46,919
Speaker 14: unlimited in his power, and he feels that he can

939
00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:50,920
Speaker 14: do no wrong. And he told me, well, in the

940
00:55:50,960 --> 00:55:55,840
Speaker 14: first term, I built the military. In my second term,

941
00:55:55,880 --> 00:56:00,880
Speaker 14: I am using it. But again, the conversation goes on,

942
00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:03,000
Speaker 14: and it's in the middle of the day, in the

943
00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:09,120
Speaker 14: middle of the war. He had just fired his secretary

944
00:56:09,120 --> 00:56:15,240
Speaker 14: of Homeland Security, just replaced her, and you know, he's

945
00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:21,319
Speaker 14: available and talking about it. It's very unique. Let's just

946
00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:23,640
Speaker 14: say it that way. It's a very unique situation.

947
00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:27,040
Speaker 2: Well, I think it's pretty darn remarkable. The president is

948
00:56:27,080 --> 00:56:30,680
Speaker 2: able to multitask like nobody else, and the fact that

949
00:56:30,719 --> 00:56:34,600
Speaker 2: he's making himself accessible to these reporters, it's something that

950
00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:37,719
Speaker 2: no other president has done. All right, nine oh one

951
00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:40,160
Speaker 2: two six zero five nine two six, this is the

952
00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:58,640
Speaker 2: Ton Starne Show. All right, welcome back. By the way,

953
00:56:58,920 --> 00:57:03,080
Speaker 2: this just in Aparently there's a suspicious package that's being

954
00:57:03,160 --> 00:57:06,839
Speaker 2: investigated in New York City near the area where those

955
00:57:06,920 --> 00:57:09,960
Speaker 2: Muslims trying to blow everybody up over the weekend. So

956
00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:12,840
Speaker 2: we'll keep you updated on Man, there doesn't seem to

957
00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:16,800
Speaker 2: be a great I don't think people are freaking out,

958
00:57:16,960 --> 00:57:22,280
Speaker 2: but still it's a little discombobulating. Let's go to the

959
00:57:22,280 --> 00:57:25,440
Speaker 2: phone lines nine oh one two six zero five nine

960
00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:28,240
Speaker 2: two six. Say hello to our good friend, great republic

961
00:57:28,360 --> 00:57:33,240
Speaker 2: Republican strategist Josh Jones. Josh, hope you're doing well today.

962
00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:34,640
Speaker 3: I'm doing good.

963
00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:38,280
Speaker 2: How are you good? Good? Good? So we've been following

964
00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:41,320
Speaker 2: the developments of I mean, there's this all sorts of

965
00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:44,360
Speaker 2: stuff breaking loose, and I know a lot of people

966
00:57:44,440 --> 00:57:47,320
Speaker 2: are freaking out about the midterm elections. You've got a

967
00:57:47,360 --> 00:57:50,560
Speaker 2: lot of candidates out there. How are things looking. What

968
00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:52,120
Speaker 2: is the mood of the country.

969
00:57:54,120 --> 00:57:58,040
Speaker 15: I think very competitive across the country right now between

970
00:57:58,040 --> 00:57:59,160
Speaker 15: Republicans and Democrats.

971
00:57:59,440 --> 00:57:59,840
Speaker 16: Especially.

972
00:57:59,880 --> 00:58:01,520
Speaker 15: The big thing that you want to be looking for

973
00:58:01,680 --> 00:58:04,240
Speaker 15: right now is the turnout in some of these primaries.

974
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:07,000
Speaker 15: And look, some of them should be a warning time

975
00:58:07,040 --> 00:58:09,479
Speaker 15: for Republicans right now in terms of motivating the base

976
00:58:09,520 --> 00:58:13,840
Speaker 15: to come out. If you looked down at Texas, you

977
00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:16,560
Speaker 15: had a competitive primary on the Democrat and the Republican

978
00:58:16,680 --> 00:58:19,320
Speaker 15: size state wide for that Senate nomination on both sides,

979
00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:22,440
Speaker 15: and yet Democrats still got more people to turn out

980
00:58:22,440 --> 00:58:24,880
Speaker 15: in their primary. Now, is that being Texas is turning blue?

981
00:58:25,120 --> 00:58:27,880
Speaker 15: Probably not, But what it does tell you is that

982
00:58:27,880 --> 00:58:31,160
Speaker 15: the Democratic base is energized more so the Republicans right

983
00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:34,360
Speaker 15: now to get out and vote. To Republicans in Congress

984
00:58:34,400 --> 00:58:36,040
Speaker 15: that are running these ni terms, you have to give

985
00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:38,760
Speaker 15: a reason to your voters to come out on election day,

986
00:58:38,800 --> 00:58:41,000
Speaker 15: otherwise you just won't have the numbers and you can't win.

987
00:58:41,600 --> 00:58:44,840
Speaker 2: John Shaw, I know that John Thune has created a

988
00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:47,960
Speaker 2: lot of anger around the nation. Looks like the Senate

989
00:58:48,040 --> 00:58:51,560
Speaker 2: Republicans are not going to budge on the Save Act,

990
00:58:51,560 --> 00:58:55,320
Speaker 2: the Save America Act. What is it going to take

991
00:58:55,600 --> 00:58:59,800
Speaker 2: to get the Republican base ramped up and ready to

992
00:58:59,840 --> 00:59:01,160
Speaker 2: vot vote in the midterms.

993
00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:04,480
Speaker 15: I think a lot of it has to do with

994
00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:08,720
Speaker 15: and it's true to the conservative movement ever since twenty sixteen.

995
00:59:09,240 --> 00:59:13,280
Speaker 15: Honestly circling back to president and having the president out

996
00:59:13,280 --> 00:59:15,120
Speaker 15: in the campaign drawing what he said, and he's been

997
00:59:15,160 --> 00:59:17,400
Speaker 15: out and about, but he said that he was going

998
00:59:17,480 --> 00:59:19,320
Speaker 15: to campaign this mid term like he was on the

999
00:59:19,360 --> 00:59:23,160
Speaker 15: ballot himself, and I think, look, that will motivate people

1000
00:59:23,200 --> 00:59:24,680
Speaker 15: they get to the polls. That will get his base

1001
00:59:24,720 --> 00:59:26,880
Speaker 15: out to the polls. Now, the question is twenty eight

1002
00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:30,720
Speaker 15: and onwards. Once President Trump, you know, completes the second term,

1003
00:59:31,080 --> 00:59:33,880
Speaker 15: is it keeps showing up. So I think that's the

1004
00:59:33,920 --> 00:59:37,280
Speaker 15: thing that Republicans in the mid terms right now, and

1005
00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:39,200
Speaker 15: the short term is Look, we're in crunch time. Frankly,

1006
00:59:39,240 --> 00:59:42,120
Speaker 15: it's already March and we're on the on our way

1007
00:59:42,160 --> 00:59:45,320
Speaker 15: to November. So I think it's getting the president's base

1008
00:59:45,400 --> 00:59:48,200
Speaker 15: motivation motivated by bringing him out into the campaign trail

1009
00:59:48,240 --> 00:59:50,280
Speaker 15: with you as part of it. But also too, it's

1010
00:59:50,920 --> 00:59:54,000
Speaker 15: it's spending the coalition. So whenever President Trump is done,

1011
00:59:54,560 --> 00:59:56,400
Speaker 15: like I said, with his second term, we can still

1012
00:59:56,440 --> 00:59:58,640
Speaker 15: have those voters be part of the Republican team coming

1013
00:59:58,640 --> 00:59:59,640
Speaker 15: out in future life.

1014
01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:02,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I gotta tell you, I don't see that happening.

1015
01:00:02,880 --> 01:00:08,520
Speaker 2: I am looking at significant divisions in the party post Trump,

1016
01:00:08,560 --> 01:00:10,680
Speaker 2: and it may it may be, it may happen even

1017
01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:13,320
Speaker 2: before he leaves office. And I think you've got the

1018
01:00:13,400 --> 01:00:16,360
Speaker 2: Marco Rubio and I think it'll be some It'll be

1019
01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:18,720
Speaker 2: multiple divisions. One of them is going to be the

1020
01:00:18,760 --> 01:00:21,000
Speaker 2: Marco Rubio camp. I think the other is going to

1021
01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:25,520
Speaker 2: be the JD Vance camp, and then probably the John

1022
01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:29,560
Speaker 2: Thune establishment camp. And the question is who can bring

1023
01:00:29,640 --> 01:00:33,000
Speaker 2: all of those folks together because I think we may

1024
01:00:33,040 --> 01:00:35,480
Speaker 2: have some big problems post midterms.

1025
01:00:37,120 --> 01:00:40,320
Speaker 15: You're absolutely correct, that's totally a possibility, because I mean,

1026
01:00:40,400 --> 01:00:42,600
Speaker 15: Donald Trump has been the leader of the party going

1027
01:00:42,600 --> 01:00:44,960
Speaker 15: back to twenty sixteen till now, so we're going on

1028
01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:48,120
Speaker 15: ten years of Donald Trump leading the Republican Party, which

1029
01:00:48,120 --> 01:00:50,760
Speaker 15: has been great for the Republicans in terms of having

1030
01:00:50,880 --> 01:00:53,400
Speaker 15: unity and not really having a major division within the party.

1031
01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:56,280
Speaker 15: But to your point, once there's a power backing at

1032
01:00:56,280 --> 01:00:58,440
Speaker 15: the top and President Trump can't run anymore, you are

1033
01:00:58,440 --> 01:01:01,280
Speaker 15: going to have these different divisions in the Republican Party

1034
01:01:01,280 --> 01:01:03,320
Speaker 15: that are going to start in fighting. And look, that's

1035
01:01:03,320 --> 01:01:06,840
Speaker 15: not always a bad thing, because the primaries is meant

1036
01:01:06,840 --> 01:01:10,040
Speaker 15: to grind grind your acts against each other, so whenever

1037
01:01:10,080 --> 01:01:11,680
Speaker 15: you head to the general election, we have of the

1038
01:01:11,680 --> 01:01:15,000
Speaker 15: best candidate that we can possibly put forward. So primary

1039
01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:18,840
Speaker 15: not inherently a bad thing, but you're definitely very easily

1040
01:01:18,840 --> 01:01:21,160
Speaker 15: and I don't need to ex plays to your listeners.

1041
01:01:21,200 --> 01:01:24,400
Speaker 15: But like paulitics can get dirty sometimes, So it'd be

1042
01:01:24,480 --> 01:01:26,640
Speaker 15: interesting to see if Trump trying to be a king

1043
01:01:26,680 --> 01:01:30,000
Speaker 15: maker and kind of annoint his successor, or if I

1044
01:01:30,120 --> 01:01:32,480
Speaker 15: like everybody, you know, I like Rubio, like man, you

1045
01:01:32,560 --> 01:01:34,040
Speaker 15: guys fight it out kind of situation.

1046
01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:37,160
Speaker 2: I will say this, I think Rubio stock has certainly

1047
01:01:37,200 --> 01:01:41,760
Speaker 2: gone up. He's showing himself to be the statesman. I

1048
01:01:41,760 --> 01:01:44,080
Speaker 2: wouldn't say the elder statesman of the guy is not

1049
01:01:44,200 --> 01:01:47,760
Speaker 2: all that old. But but again, he's got the experience.

1050
01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:50,160
Speaker 2: And when you look at who's in the room and

1051
01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:53,920
Speaker 2: who Trump is talking to and giving praise, it's here. Lately,

1052
01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:56,760
Speaker 2: it has not been the vice president. It's been Marco Rubio.

1053
01:01:57,960 --> 01:02:00,560
Speaker 15: You're right, I mean Mark Rubio is kind of became

1054
01:02:00,560 --> 01:02:03,840
Speaker 15: a joke on Twitter and online everywhere else about how

1055
01:02:03,880 --> 01:02:06,080
Speaker 15: many jobs he has in this administration. I mean, he

1056
01:02:06,160 --> 01:02:07,919
Speaker 15: is a Secretary of State, but he's also a national

1057
01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:12,000
Speaker 15: security advisor, a special envoy to all these different initiatives

1058
01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:16,200
Speaker 15: that that presidents initiated. So look, who is a workforce,

1059
01:02:16,960 --> 01:02:19,720
Speaker 15: who is you know, pushing through one of the biggest

1060
01:02:19,760 --> 01:02:23,080
Speaker 15: people pushing through President Trump's agenda, but also too he's

1061
01:02:23,120 --> 01:02:26,760
Speaker 15: well alike across a large swath of the Republican Party

1062
01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:28,960
Speaker 15: because he kind of checks that box for your more

1063
01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:32,520
Speaker 15: traditional establishment. So you know, if this was going to

1064
01:02:32,520 --> 01:02:35,080
Speaker 15: call it conservative, but he's also i mean proven himself

1065
01:02:35,120 --> 01:02:37,960
Speaker 15: to be a magna fighter as well. So and to

1066
01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:39,840
Speaker 15: your point, I think President Trump is tarting to pick

1067
01:02:39,880 --> 01:02:42,600
Speaker 15: up on that, especially with his inner circle. I mean,

1068
01:02:42,600 --> 01:02:44,720
Speaker 15: he was just that Martin Lago, the President was a

1069
01:02:44,720 --> 01:02:47,840
Speaker 15: couple like a week ago. I was asking some high

1070
01:02:47,880 --> 01:02:51,280
Speaker 15: value Republican donors there who they prefer, and the rooms

1071
01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:52,240
Speaker 15: leaning towards Rubio.

1072
01:02:52,800 --> 01:02:53,000
Speaker 13: Yeah.

1073
01:02:53,040 --> 01:02:55,400
Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, that was the huge cheer

1074
01:02:55,440 --> 01:02:59,200
Speaker 2: in the room was for Rubio. And I love the

1075
01:02:59,240 --> 01:03:02,280
Speaker 2: fact that you know, he's able to dispatch Rubio to

1076
01:03:02,360 --> 01:03:05,320
Speaker 2: all of these countries and these folks have they have

1077
01:03:05,400 --> 01:03:06,600
Speaker 2: great respect for the guy.

1078
01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:08,000
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1079
01:03:08,120 --> 01:03:10,920
Speaker 15: I think you see that internationally. I mean, if you

1080
01:03:11,040 --> 01:03:13,480
Speaker 15: go back to the Munich conference a month or two ago,

1081
01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:17,600
Speaker 15: even the international leaders seem to respect him, you know,

1082
01:03:17,640 --> 01:03:21,040
Speaker 15: and take him seriously. So I think, look, this is

1083
01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:23,080
Speaker 15: a testament to the Republican Party across the board.

1084
01:03:23,160 --> 01:03:23,360
Speaker 17: Right now.

1085
01:03:23,520 --> 01:03:24,960
Speaker 15: We have a deep bench, we have a lot of

1086
01:03:25,040 --> 01:03:27,160
Speaker 15: qualified candidates. Mark Ribo, J D.

1087
01:03:27,360 --> 01:03:27,600
Speaker 3: Dance.

1088
01:03:27,840 --> 01:03:29,960
Speaker 15: You have plenty of great governors across the country that

1089
01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:33,120
Speaker 15: could potentially run, So you know, it's not the discredit

1090
01:03:33,120 --> 01:03:36,360
Speaker 15: anybody else, but he's really been you know this past

1091
01:03:36,400 --> 01:03:39,680
Speaker 15: year since taking office, are really standing out amongst the crowd.

1092
01:03:40,720 --> 01:03:44,240
Speaker 2: Josh Jones, Republicans Stranded, just joining us on the Patriot

1093
01:03:44,280 --> 01:03:47,960
Speaker 2: Mobile news maker line today. Josh, just curious how things

1094
01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:50,160
Speaker 2: are going in Virginia. I know there's been a lot

1095
01:03:50,160 --> 01:03:54,960
Speaker 2: of pushback over the plans to gut the Republican congressional delegation.

1096
01:03:55,880 --> 01:03:58,600
Speaker 2: Do you think that could end up still happening or

1097
01:03:58,640 --> 01:04:00,920
Speaker 2: are we gonna be able to save those rusial seats.

1098
01:04:01,880 --> 01:04:05,640
Speaker 15: Look, the path we're on right now, it's not looking

1099
01:04:05,640 --> 01:04:08,840
Speaker 15: good for Republicans. Frankly, you have a lot of Democrats

1100
01:04:08,880 --> 01:04:12,320
Speaker 15: special interests getting involved in in this referendum. It's going

1101
01:04:12,360 --> 01:04:14,600
Speaker 15: to the voters. The courts have already ruled that this

1102
01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:18,000
Speaker 15: is going to happen. So the last, the last way

1103
01:04:18,040 --> 01:04:20,200
Speaker 15: to stop this is the voters to beat the referendum

1104
01:04:20,240 --> 01:04:23,160
Speaker 15: in April. And look, you have a lot of Democrats

1105
01:04:23,200 --> 01:04:26,520
Speaker 15: pouring money in. President Obama just cut an ad for

1106
01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:30,720
Speaker 15: the Democrat effort to get these Republican maps. So my

1107
01:04:30,800 --> 01:04:33,320
Speaker 15: message Republicans, particularly in Virginia is get out and vote. No,

1108
01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:35,120
Speaker 15: you can actually get out and vote right now because

1109
01:04:35,200 --> 01:04:38,520
Speaker 15: early voting has already started on the referendum, but also too,

1110
01:04:38,680 --> 01:04:40,720
Speaker 15: get your friends to kill vote, and if you're not

1111
01:04:40,840 --> 01:04:45,080
Speaker 15: in Virginia, get send your money to the r n

1112
01:04:45,200 --> 01:04:49,160
Speaker 15: C and tell them send us to Virginia. For some reason,

1113
01:04:49,760 --> 01:04:51,800
Speaker 15: it doesn't seem like a lot of these national Republican

1114
01:04:51,880 --> 01:04:53,200
Speaker 15: organizations are getting involved.

1115
01:04:53,800 --> 01:04:55,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, by the way, speaking of the r n C,

1116
01:04:57,720 --> 01:05:01,000
Speaker 2: what the heck, I don't even know. I don't even

1117
01:05:01,000 --> 01:05:04,000
Speaker 2: know what they're open. Are they open for business? If

1118
01:05:04,040 --> 01:05:06,280
Speaker 2: you asked me right now who's the chair of the RNC,

1119
01:05:06,520 --> 01:05:09,960
Speaker 2: I could not tell you. And Josh, someone in my position,

1120
01:05:10,080 --> 01:05:11,880
Speaker 2: I think that's a problem.

1121
01:05:12,200 --> 01:05:15,680
Speaker 15: I know I do too. Look the r and C,

1122
01:05:17,280 --> 01:05:21,480
Speaker 15: it is their primary responsibility is to be fighting for

1123
01:05:21,600 --> 01:05:25,520
Speaker 15: Republican candidates that causes across the entire country, and organizing

1124
01:05:25,560 --> 01:05:28,960
Speaker 15: those efforts and allocating resources. So the fact that you know,

1125
01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:31,760
Speaker 15: as people who kind of live and breathe this stuff

1126
01:05:31,800 --> 01:05:34,080
Speaker 15: and we don't know what they're doing is you know,

1127
01:05:34,320 --> 01:05:36,160
Speaker 15: just an absolutely awful.

1128
01:05:35,840 --> 01:05:36,240
Speaker 2: Test of it.

1129
01:05:37,200 --> 01:05:39,760
Speaker 15: What they're currently organizing. Oh look, you got other organizations

1130
01:05:39,760 --> 01:05:41,160
Speaker 15: who are getting involved. So I don't want to paint

1131
01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:45,680
Speaker 15: a picture if nobody's humping into this fight. But if

1132
01:05:45,720 --> 01:05:47,920
Speaker 15: you're trying to make the argument that the entire national

1133
01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:50,600
Speaker 15: Republican apparatus is coming in to try and save these

1134
01:05:50,640 --> 01:05:52,919
Speaker 15: congressional tees, it's just not happening, at least not yet.

1135
01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:55,120
Speaker 2: No, are you ready for these numbers, Josh? I can't

1136
01:05:55,120 --> 01:05:58,640
Speaker 2: wait for you to hear these numbers. They spent nearly

1137
01:05:58,720 --> 01:06:04,120
Speaker 2: one hundred million on campaign advertising for the Senate seat

1138
01:06:04,440 --> 01:06:06,960
Speaker 2: in Texas, the one fent they still don't have a

1139
01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:11,840
Speaker 2: nominee for. Can you believe that that was just outrageous

1140
01:06:11,840 --> 01:06:14,680
Speaker 2: the amount of money the Republicans spent, it.

1141
01:06:14,600 --> 01:06:18,000
Speaker 15: Is outrageous to your point, one hundred million dollars spent

1142
01:06:18,040 --> 01:06:22,360
Speaker 15: in Texas. Mind you look, whether whether you're on John

1143
01:06:22,440 --> 01:06:25,760
Speaker 15: qure Inside or Kim Paxson, frankly who for the Republican

1144
01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:27,760
Speaker 15: armen they used, they have a pretty good chance of winning,

1145
01:06:27,960 --> 01:06:30,040
Speaker 15: which probably be like the person or not. You know,

1146
01:06:30,120 --> 01:06:32,240
Speaker 15: while we don't have a chance of winning, is that

1147
01:06:32,320 --> 01:06:35,560
Speaker 15: the jerrymandered these naps in Virginia. There's just no passive victory,

1148
01:06:35,640 --> 01:06:40,920
Speaker 15: we lose four Republicans feeds. So look raises a lot

1149
01:06:40,920 --> 01:06:43,960
Speaker 15: of questions about their priorities with some of these organizations

1150
01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:45,720
Speaker 15: and people at the top of where they're allocating their

1151
01:06:45,760 --> 01:06:48,880
Speaker 15: time and money. Because reality is Texas is probably going

1152
01:06:48,920 --> 01:06:51,400
Speaker 15: to stay red when we keep that Senate see red.

1153
01:06:51,560 --> 01:06:53,200
Speaker 15: You know, how are about to lose four House seats

1154
01:06:53,240 --> 01:06:54,680
Speaker 15: and nobody seems to be doing anything.

1155
01:06:54,800 --> 01:06:56,800
Speaker 2: And if everybody went and here's the thing, there's so

1156
01:06:56,840 --> 01:07:01,320
Speaker 2: many Republicans that are retiring from safe district that that

1157
01:07:01,400 --> 01:07:03,680
Speaker 2: leaves those seats up for grams now. But let's just

1158
01:07:03,720 --> 01:07:06,400
Speaker 2: say everybody wins what they're supposed to win, and we

1159
01:07:06,560 --> 01:07:08,480
Speaker 2: lose those seats in Virginia, we lose the.

1160
01:07:08,440 --> 01:07:12,800
Speaker 15: House exactly exactly he road to majority. And look, Democrats

1161
01:07:12,840 --> 01:07:15,600
Speaker 15: recognize this. That's why they're all getting involved. That's Obama

1162
01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:20,680
Speaker 15: hiking Jeffries obviously, Governor Spamberger. That's why they're all pushing

1163
01:07:20,680 --> 01:07:22,960
Speaker 15: this go hard and getting involved because they know they

1164
01:07:22,960 --> 01:07:24,920
Speaker 15: want a majority in the House. This is the easiest

1165
01:07:24,920 --> 01:07:25,240
Speaker 15: way for.

1166
01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:25,760
Speaker 7: Them to do it.

1167
01:07:26,280 --> 01:07:29,360
Speaker 2: All right, Josh, be safe out there. I know you're

1168
01:07:29,400 --> 01:07:31,240
Speaker 2: on the road, my friend, and we hope to see

1169
01:07:31,240 --> 01:07:35,920
Speaker 2: it anight on Newsmax. Thanks DoD Josh Jones. Everybody a

1170
01:07:36,000 --> 01:07:39,640
Speaker 2: smart guy. He's he knows, and he's got his he's

1171
01:07:39,680 --> 01:07:42,600
Speaker 2: got his finger on the pulse of America. They spent

1172
01:07:42,760 --> 01:07:45,720
Speaker 2: are you ready for this, ninety eight point two million

1173
01:07:45,760 --> 01:07:50,240
Speaker 2: dollars in that Senate race so far. Fifty nine million

1174
01:07:50,320 --> 01:07:52,880
Speaker 2: dollars of that was spent by John Cornyn. That is

1175
01:07:52,920 --> 01:07:55,840
Speaker 2: fifty nine million dollars that could have been used to

1176
01:07:55,880 --> 01:08:00,479
Speaker 2: fight the Democrats in the general election that we will

1177
01:08:00,520 --> 01:08:03,920
Speaker 2: not have now. So there you go. That is the

1178
01:08:04,200 --> 01:08:07,360
Speaker 2: state of affairs in Texas. But that also shows you

1179
01:08:07,840 --> 01:08:11,280
Speaker 2: the amount of money and when you take a look

1180
01:08:11,280 --> 01:08:15,280
Speaker 2: at dollar numbers, that big John Cornyn is not the

1181
01:08:15,320 --> 01:08:18,519
Speaker 2: Senator for the good people of Texas. He is the

1182
01:08:19,000 --> 01:08:22,120
Speaker 2: Senator for the good people who gave him fifty nine

1183
01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:25,720
Speaker 2: million dollars. All right, gotta take a break. Nine oh

01:11:04,320 --> 01:11:06,599
Speaker 2: twenty five pledged.

1225
01:11:06,920 --> 01:11:11,400
Speaker 18: Both defendants have admitted that they acted on Saturday because

1226
01:11:11,520 --> 01:11:15,880
Speaker 18: of ISIS. As Kyumi was being placed into an NYPD

1227
01:11:16,000 --> 01:11:19,920
Speaker 18: vehicle following his arrest, a person in the crowd asked

1228
01:11:20,120 --> 01:11:23,519
Speaker 18: why he had done this, as shown on NYPD body

1229
01:11:23,520 --> 01:11:27,720
Speaker 18: warn camera footage reference in the complaint, Coyumi responded with

1230
01:11:28,439 --> 01:11:32,439
Speaker 18: ISIS and at the precinct after being advised of his

1231
01:11:32,520 --> 01:11:35,960
Speaker 18: miranda rights and waiving those rights, Coyumi said in recorded

1232
01:11:36,400 --> 01:11:40,240
Speaker 18: post arrest statements that he had watched ISIS propaganda on

1233
01:11:40,280 --> 01:11:43,679
Speaker 18: his phone and that his actions that day were partly

1234
01:11:43,760 --> 01:11:48,920
Speaker 18: inspired by ISIS. The complaint also detailed statements made by

1235
01:11:48,960 --> 01:11:52,040
Speaker 18: Emir Balat after his arrests En route to.

1236
01:11:52,000 --> 01:11:53,240
Speaker 3: The NYPD precinct.

1237
01:11:53,720 --> 01:11:58,120
Speaker 18: Ballot made spontaneous statements without being questioned by NYPD officers

1238
01:11:58,400 --> 01:12:01,880
Speaker 18: that were captured on body works camera footage. He said,

1239
01:12:02,360 --> 01:12:05,160
Speaker 18: this isn't a religion that just stands when people talk

1240
01:12:05,200 --> 01:12:07,000
Speaker 18: about the blessed name of the prophet.

1241
01:12:07,439 --> 01:12:08,280
Speaker 3: We take action.

1242
01:12:08,479 --> 01:12:12,320
Speaker 18: We take action as well as if I didn't do it,

1243
01:12:12,640 --> 01:12:15,720
Speaker 18: some will else, someone else will come and do it.

1244
01:12:16,320 --> 01:12:19,800
Speaker 18: And later, after waiving his rights, he requested paper and

1245
01:12:19,840 --> 01:12:24,000
Speaker 18: wrote a message declaring, in part, I pledge my allegiance

1246
01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:27,839
Speaker 18: to the Islamic state. Die in your rage, you kufar,

1247
01:12:28,560 --> 01:12:31,839
Speaker 18: now die in your rage is a commonly known ISIS slogan,

1248
01:12:32,280 --> 01:12:37,160
Speaker 18: and kufar is an Arabic term that refers to non believers.

1249
01:12:37,840 --> 01:12:40,479
Speaker 18: He also told investigators that he had hoped to carry

1250
01:12:40,479 --> 01:12:44,320
Speaker 18: out an attack even bigger than the Boston Marathon bombing,

1251
01:12:44,400 --> 01:12:49,320
Speaker 18: which he noted resulted in only three deaths. These statements,

1252
01:12:49,360 --> 01:12:51,880
Speaker 18: it's as set forth in the complaint, make clear that

1253
01:12:51,960 --> 01:12:55,519
Speaker 18: this was not random violence. This was a planned attack,

1254
01:12:56,000 --> 01:13:01,000
Speaker 18: motivated by extremist ideology and inspired by a violand foreign

1255
01:13:01,240 --> 01:13:06,240
Speaker 18: terrorist organization. The complaint alleges not only why the defendants acted,

1256
01:13:06,400 --> 01:13:09,840
Speaker 18: but how. Preliminary testing has determined that one of the

1257
01:13:09,880 --> 01:13:16,040
Speaker 18: devices contained triacetone triperoxide or TATP, also commonly referred to

1258
01:13:16,280 --> 01:13:20,160
Speaker 18: as mother of Satan, a highly volatile explosive that has

1259
01:13:20,160 --> 01:13:23,880
Speaker 18: been used in multiple terrorist attacks over the last decade.

1260
01:13:24,360 --> 01:13:27,439
Speaker 18: As we have previously discussed, the NYPD identified a vehicle

1261
01:13:27,520 --> 01:13:31,240
Speaker 18: yesterday on East End Avenue that was linked to the defendants.

1262
01:13:31,280 --> 01:13:37,720
Speaker 18: Inside that vehicle, investigators recovered handwritten notes referencing TATP explosive

1263
01:13:38,240 --> 01:13:41,759
Speaker 18: and listing chemical ingredients for the type of explosive device

1264
01:13:42,360 --> 01:13:44,520
Speaker 18: used by the defendants on Saturday.

1265
01:13:45,240 --> 01:13:49,839
Speaker 2: All right, that was Jessica Tish, she's the NYPD Police Commissioner. Now. Yesterday,

1266
01:13:49,840 --> 01:13:53,759
Speaker 2: President Trump and this press conference, said hey, look, there

1267
01:13:53,800 --> 01:13:58,800
Speaker 2: are thousands of Iranian sleeper cells all over America. Did

1268
01:13:58,840 --> 01:14:01,160
Speaker 2: he say thousands? I don't know if he said a number,

1269
01:14:01,160 --> 01:14:02,360
Speaker 2: but there were a lot of them, but he said

1270
01:14:02,360 --> 01:14:08,240
Speaker 2: they He said they had them all under surveillance. All right.

1271
01:14:08,280 --> 01:14:10,800
Speaker 2: I got a question about that. So, if we've got

1272
01:14:10,920 --> 01:14:15,920
Speaker 2: known Iranian sleeper cells in America and they're under surveillance,

1273
01:14:16,000 --> 01:14:19,840
Speaker 2: why aren't those sleeper cells in custody right now? Why

1274
01:14:19,880 --> 01:14:25,200
Speaker 2: are we not actively arresting these dangerous people and deporting

1275
01:14:25,240 --> 01:14:29,200
Speaker 2: them out of our country? Why are we not doing that?

1276
01:14:29,439 --> 01:14:32,800
Speaker 2: So it's it's a question that deserves to have a

1277
01:14:32,880 --> 01:14:35,280
Speaker 2: little bit more of an answer than we got yesterday

1278
01:14:35,280 --> 01:14:38,479
Speaker 2: at the press briefing at the news conference in Miami.

1279
01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:41,920
Speaker 2: But again President Trump says, hey, look, we know where

1280
01:14:41,960 --> 01:14:45,880
Speaker 2: these people are. We've got tabs on them. I got

1281
01:14:45,880 --> 01:14:48,639
Speaker 2: to tell you, folks, it's too much of a risk,

1282
01:14:49,120 --> 01:14:52,760
Speaker 2: especially with what happened in Austin, Texas last weekend, with

1283
01:14:52,760 --> 01:14:55,599
Speaker 2: what happened in New York City just recently over the weekend,

1284
01:14:56,040 --> 01:15:00,280
Speaker 2: and now we've got another situation unfolding in New York

1285
01:15:00,280 --> 01:15:02,280
Speaker 2: City on the Upper East Side. All Right, we've got

1286
01:15:02,320 --> 01:15:04,800
Speaker 2: to take a break. Nine oh one two six zero five,

1287
01:15:04,880 --> 01:15:07,080
Speaker 2: nine two six. If you want to weigh in today,

1288
01:15:07,120 --> 01:15:10,240
Speaker 2: that's nine o one two six zero five nine two six.

1289
01:15:10,280 --> 01:15:11,759
Speaker 2: This is the Todd Stern Show.

1290
01:15:32,920 --> 01:15:37,880
Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's

1291
01:15:37,960 --> 01:15:40,320
Speaker 1: America's Conservative Blowtorch.

1292
01:15:40,760 --> 01:15:46,240
Speaker 2: That's Samaritan.

1293
01:15:48,360 --> 01:15:50,320
Speaker 3: To starts.

1294
01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:54,040
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, hello, everybody, welcome to hour three of The

1295
01:15:54,080 --> 01:15:57,080
Speaker 2: Big Show. Great to have you with us this hour

1296
01:15:57,280 --> 01:16:01,639
Speaker 2: of the program. So we're dealing with some breaking news

1297
01:16:01,720 --> 01:16:05,320
Speaker 2: out of New York City right now. We understand that

1298
01:16:05,400 --> 01:16:10,160
Speaker 2: as many as ten blocks have been completely evacuated. Gracie Mansion,

1299
01:16:10,560 --> 01:16:12,960
Speaker 2: which is the residence of the New York City Mayor,

1300
01:16:13,040 --> 01:16:18,639
Speaker 2: has been evacuated because of a suspicious device. Now, this

1301
01:16:18,720 --> 01:16:23,240
Speaker 2: device was located near the area where you had the

1302
01:16:23,280 --> 01:16:27,360
Speaker 2: attempted Islamic bombing just a couple of days ago. Traffic

1303
01:16:27,479 --> 01:16:31,320
Speaker 2: is blocked off in the streets as well. The device

1304
01:16:31,520 --> 01:16:35,680
Speaker 2: was located in a nearby park and somebody called it in.

1305
01:16:35,760 --> 01:16:38,799
Speaker 2: So they're taking whatever is going on there at Gracie

1306
01:16:38,840 --> 01:16:42,599
Speaker 2: Mansion they're taking very seriously, and we're going to keep

1307
01:16:42,640 --> 01:16:46,880
Speaker 2: you updated on this particular story throughout the hour. Yesterday

1308
01:16:47,040 --> 01:16:49,719
Speaker 2: on my Newsmak's TV show, New York City council Woman

1309
01:16:49,840 --> 01:16:54,320
Speaker 2: Joanne Ariola drop by, and she is very concerned about

1310
01:16:54,360 --> 01:16:57,320
Speaker 2: the situation in New York City, and she had a

1311
01:16:57,360 --> 01:17:00,120
Speaker 2: message for all of you Christians and all of you

1312
01:17:00,000 --> 01:17:03,000
Speaker 2: you Jews. Let's take a listen. Well, joining me now,

1313
01:17:03,120 --> 01:17:07,280
Speaker 2: Joanna Ariola, Republican New York City council member, Good to

1314
01:17:07,360 --> 01:17:11,599
Speaker 2: have you with us. Just let's get right to the point.

1315
01:17:11,600 --> 01:17:14,960
Speaker 2: Here are the Christian and Jewish citizens of New York

1316
01:17:14,960 --> 01:17:16,040
Speaker 2: City safe tonight?

1317
01:17:16,479 --> 01:17:17,400
Speaker 3: They're not safe.

1318
01:17:17,640 --> 01:17:22,760
Speaker 9: No one is safe because finally our mayor has recognized

1319
01:17:22,760 --> 01:17:31,880
Speaker 9: that these are radical Muslim Islamic Isis driven terrorists and

1320
01:17:31,920 --> 01:17:34,200
Speaker 9: they are in our midst and we can thank the

1321
01:17:34,240 --> 01:17:38,600
Speaker 9: Biden and Obama administration for these cells being allowed to

1322
01:17:38,640 --> 01:17:41,720
Speaker 9: cross into our borders and be in our city, in

1323
01:17:41,760 --> 01:17:45,639
Speaker 9: many cities across the United States of America. And when

1324
01:17:45,840 --> 01:17:49,679
Speaker 9: you have and we can just talk about the police department,

1325
01:17:50,120 --> 01:17:54,799
Speaker 9: the job that they did protecting the peaceful protesters, because

1326
01:17:55,280 --> 01:17:59,280
Speaker 9: this is being portrayed as an attempt on the mayor

1327
01:17:59,320 --> 01:18:03,240
Speaker 9: and his wife's life, which they were adjacent actually to

1328
01:18:03,320 --> 01:18:07,559
Speaker 9: this terrorist attack, but it really was an attack on

1329
01:18:07,640 --> 01:18:13,080
Speaker 9: a peaceful protest with people with conservative values, and that's

1330
01:18:13,200 --> 01:18:13,879
Speaker 9: very scary.

1331
01:18:14,560 --> 01:18:18,280
Speaker 2: Well, the mayor actually downplayed the Islamic angle. He did

1332
01:18:18,320 --> 01:18:21,880
Speaker 2: that all weekend and instead accused the victims of being

1333
01:18:22,000 --> 01:18:23,120
Speaker 2: white supremacist.

1334
01:18:23,280 --> 01:18:24,120
Speaker 3: Let's take a listen.

1335
01:18:24,560 --> 01:18:29,040
Speaker 16: On Saturday, a protest was held outside Gracie Mansion, where

1336
01:18:29,040 --> 01:18:32,200
Speaker 16: I live with my wife Rama. Neither of us were

1337
01:18:32,240 --> 01:18:36,360
Speaker 16: home at the time. This was a vile protest rooted

1338
01:18:36,360 --> 01:18:39,800
Speaker 16: in white supremacy, entitled stop the Islamic Takeover of New

1339
01:18:39,880 --> 01:18:40,360
Speaker 16: York City.

1340
01:18:40,760 --> 01:18:43,360
Speaker 2: All right, council member, you just heard the mayor there.

1341
01:18:43,400 --> 01:18:44,720
Speaker 2: How do you respond.

1342
01:18:45,080 --> 01:18:47,360
Speaker 9: I think that if he doesn't want the Muslim community

1343
01:18:47,400 --> 01:18:52,120
Speaker 9: painted with a wide brush, he shouldn't paint other communities.

1344
01:18:51,520 --> 01:18:52,800
Speaker 6: With a wide brush.

1345
01:18:53,000 --> 01:18:56,920
Speaker 9: They were peaceful protesters, They were not being disruptive. Police

1346
01:18:56,920 --> 01:18:59,920
Speaker 9: were on site. They were exercising their first Amendment right

1347
01:19:00,520 --> 01:19:06,439
Speaker 9: when Islamic radical ISIS terrorists came to throw bombs at them,

1348
01:19:06,479 --> 01:19:11,960
Speaker 9: and admittedly have been motivated by ISIS, admittedly wanted.

1349
01:19:11,680 --> 01:19:12,960
Speaker 18: More depths at that.

1350
01:19:14,439 --> 01:19:18,320
Speaker 9: Incident than they had at the Boston marathon. This is

1351
01:19:18,360 --> 01:19:22,120
Speaker 9: what we have in our borders, in our cities, and

1352
01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:24,719
Speaker 9: New York isn't safe and New York will be less

1353
01:19:24,760 --> 01:19:29,879
Speaker 9: safe because the mayor has now canceled any additional police

1354
01:19:29,960 --> 01:19:36,640
Speaker 9: recruitment classes coming out of the MIPD, which Mayor Adams

1355
01:19:36,880 --> 01:19:40,640
Speaker 9: during his term had funded and allowed. I don't know

1356
01:19:40,680 --> 01:19:43,120
Speaker 9: why he wanted to cut that. We need our police,

1357
01:19:43,280 --> 01:19:44,799
Speaker 9: it's shown right there in the video.

1358
01:19:44,880 --> 01:19:48,760
Speaker 2: Why how concerned? How concern should New Yorkers be that

1359
01:19:48,760 --> 01:19:52,679
Speaker 2: the Mayor's wife has been liking a lot of very

1360
01:19:53,640 --> 01:19:59,519
Speaker 2: very dangerous and disturbing messages on social media, seemingly backing

1361
01:19:59,600 --> 01:20:04,519
Speaker 2: the terror who committed those great atrocities in Israel back

1362
01:20:04,600 --> 01:20:05,519
Speaker 2: October seventh.

1363
01:20:05,800 --> 01:20:09,599
Speaker 9: Well, I came out and came out against that right away,

1364
01:20:09,960 --> 01:20:12,799
Speaker 9: and the Mayor's response was, well, she's a private citizen.

1365
01:20:12,920 --> 01:20:14,800
Speaker 3: No, she's married to the mayor.

1366
01:20:14,880 --> 01:20:18,160
Speaker 9: One of the greatest cities in the world. She is

1367
01:20:18,200 --> 01:20:20,879
Speaker 9: his wife, She is our first lady. She has staffing

1368
01:20:20,960 --> 01:20:25,280
Speaker 9: that is funded by our taxpayers. She needs to be

1369
01:20:25,360 --> 01:20:29,000
Speaker 9: held accountable. And what my tweet said was not only

1370
01:20:29,040 --> 01:20:36,160
Speaker 9: affiliates with radical Islamic terrorists, he's actually married to someone

1371
01:20:36,160 --> 01:20:38,280
Speaker 9: else who believes the same way. And we've said from

1372
01:20:38,400 --> 01:20:40,720
Speaker 9: day one, show me who your friends are, and I'll

1373
01:20:40,760 --> 01:20:43,480
Speaker 9: tell you who you are and this mayor is certainly showing.

1374
01:20:43,280 --> 01:20:43,800
Speaker 17: Us who he is.

1375
01:20:44,520 --> 01:20:46,880
Speaker 2: Well, he certainly is ladies and gentlemen. And we always

1376
01:20:46,920 --> 01:20:51,280
Speaker 2: appreciate Joanne Ariola joining us on our NEWSMAC show. They

1377
01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:54,040
Speaker 2: were in meetings today, she was able to join us live.

1378
01:20:54,120 --> 01:20:57,640
Speaker 2: Also Vicki Palladino, who hopes to be with us tomorrow.

1379
01:20:57,960 --> 01:21:02,439
Speaker 2: But again, it is a very chaotic situation. Uh, and

1380
01:21:03,040 --> 01:21:06,840
Speaker 2: it's unacceptable. Now the question is what's gonna happen. Well,

1381
01:21:06,880 --> 01:21:09,559
Speaker 2: there's not much that can happen. This is the guy

1382
01:21:09,720 --> 01:21:13,880
Speaker 2: the New York City voters wanted. So what you get

1383
01:21:13,880 --> 01:21:16,360
Speaker 2: what you vote for? I mean, it really is it

1384
01:21:16,400 --> 01:21:19,920
Speaker 2: really is that simple. Nine oh one two six zero

1385
01:21:20,040 --> 01:21:22,880
Speaker 2: five nine two six is our telephone number. That's nine

1386
01:21:22,960 --> 01:21:27,880
Speaker 2: oh one two six zero five, nine to six. So

1387
01:21:28,160 --> 01:21:30,760
Speaker 2: I want to play some audio here. This is from

1388
01:21:31,000 --> 01:21:35,960
Speaker 2: This is an interesting CNN poll, and they asked Americans

1389
01:21:36,120 --> 01:21:39,120
Speaker 2: about serving in the military. All right, Americans who served

1390
01:21:39,120 --> 01:21:43,160
Speaker 2: in the military whether they support President Trump's airstrikes on

1391
01:21:43,320 --> 01:21:45,759
Speaker 2: Iran cut number twenty three.

1392
01:21:45,960 --> 01:21:49,000
Speaker 19: Overall public and those who are either currently or have

1393
01:21:49,160 --> 01:21:50,960
Speaker 19: served in the military. Take a look at this Fox

1394
01:21:51,000 --> 01:21:53,320
Speaker 19: News poll that came out during the past week. Net

1395
01:21:53,320 --> 01:21:56,240
Speaker 19: approval rating of the current US military action against iron

1396
01:21:56,360 --> 01:21:59,599
Speaker 19: Look at that overall, Fox News shows a dead even split.

1397
01:22:00,040 --> 01:22:03,160
Speaker 19: Look at those who served in the military, significantly higher

1398
01:22:03,200 --> 01:22:06,320
Speaker 19: support for the US military action currently going on in Iran.

1399
01:22:06,520 --> 01:22:09,160
Speaker 19: It plus twenty points. That should not be so much

1400
01:22:09,160 --> 01:22:11,600
Speaker 19: of a surprise, because take a look at how they

1401
01:22:11,680 --> 01:22:14,680
Speaker 19: view Trump's foreign policy overall. Again, look at those who

1402
01:22:14,800 --> 01:22:17,439
Speaker 19: served in the US military versus overall. If you look

1403
01:22:17,439 --> 01:22:20,040
Speaker 19: at Trump's foreign policy overall, the net approval rating on

1404
01:22:20,080 --> 01:22:22,520
Speaker 19: that per Fox News, those who served in the military,

1405
01:22:22,720 --> 01:22:25,080
Speaker 19: they like what's going on on average. Look at that,

1406
01:22:25,160 --> 01:22:28,680
Speaker 19: the net approval rating plus eight points for Trump's foreign policy.

1407
01:22:28,880 --> 01:22:31,800
Speaker 19: But look at those overall, way way down there at

1408
01:22:31,840 --> 01:22:35,000
Speaker 19: minus twenty points. We're talking about a nearly thirty point

1409
01:22:35,080 --> 01:22:38,000
Speaker 19: gap between those who served in the military and overall.

1410
01:22:38,080 --> 01:22:40,360
Speaker 19: And this split when it comes to those who served

1411
01:22:40,400 --> 01:22:43,600
Speaker 19: in the military and overall dates back to Trump's elections,

1412
01:22:43,640 --> 01:22:45,400
Speaker 19: all the way back to twenty sixteen. But let's look

1413
01:22:45,400 --> 01:22:47,679
Speaker 19: at the twenty twenty four numbers. Look at this twenty

1414
01:22:47,680 --> 01:22:50,559
Speaker 19: twenty four results. Those who served in the military. Trump

1415
01:22:50,560 --> 01:22:53,559
Speaker 19: won them by get this thirty one points. Kamala Harris

1416
01:22:53,680 --> 01:22:56,479
Speaker 19: actually won all other voters by two points, and that

1417
01:22:56,560 --> 01:22:59,240
Speaker 19: means Johnny Berman, that means that Donald Trump only won

1418
01:22:59,280 --> 01:23:02,080
Speaker 19: in twenty twenty five because of support from those who

1419
01:23:02,160 --> 01:23:03,400
Speaker 19: served in the military.

1420
01:23:03,800 --> 01:23:05,559
Speaker 2: Well there you go. I mean, it really is that

1421
01:23:05,640 --> 01:23:08,920
Speaker 2: simple when you look at the military, especially, I know

1422
01:23:08,960 --> 01:23:10,920
Speaker 2: we have a lot of veterans, a lot of active

1423
01:23:11,000 --> 01:23:14,240
Speaker 2: duty folks that listened to the show. What Donald Trump

1424
01:23:14,280 --> 01:23:19,160
Speaker 2: did to the military is just simply remarkable. The President

1425
01:23:19,320 --> 01:23:24,040
Speaker 2: and our War Secretary Pete Hegseth understanding almost immediately that

1426
01:23:24,120 --> 01:23:27,040
Speaker 2: the Pentagon was broken and it had to be fixed,

1427
01:23:27,160 --> 01:23:29,600
Speaker 2: and in no time at all, they were able to

1428
01:23:29,680 --> 01:23:35,800
Speaker 2: return that warrior ethos back to the Pentagon, where you

1429
01:23:35,960 --> 01:23:40,160
Speaker 2: had literally drag queens running around prancing around Navy ships,

1430
01:23:40,600 --> 01:23:44,439
Speaker 2: when you had diversity, equity and inclusion that was being

1431
01:23:44,479 --> 01:23:47,640
Speaker 2: shoved down the throats of the service members, when you

1432
01:23:47,680 --> 01:23:50,519
Speaker 2: had the greatest fighting force on the planet, turned into

1433
01:23:50,560 --> 01:23:55,040
Speaker 2: a social engineering peatrie dish. Yeah, there were problems, and

1434
01:23:55,360 --> 01:23:59,599
Speaker 2: Trump and hankseth are undoing all of the damage. All right,

1435
01:24:00,040 --> 01:24:02,320
Speaker 2: take a break. Nine oh one two six zero five

Speaker 20: Saturday anti Muslim protest in New York City. Never detonated,

1479
01:26:54,200 --> 01:26:56,559
Speaker 20: but could have, but if they had, it would have

1480
01:26:56,600 --> 01:27:01,080
Speaker 20: been catastrophic. Both men appeared in Federal Core yesterday. The

1493
01:27:51,840 --> 01:27:54,800
Speaker 12: to violence, and this is taking place against the backdrop

1494
01:27:55,000 --> 01:27:59,000
Speaker 12: of social media, the dynamics of online culture. It's not

1495
01:27:59,080 --> 01:28:02,680
Speaker 12: limited to isis, It's across the ideological spectrum.

1496
01:28:03,080 --> 01:28:05,800
Speaker 20: Both men are being held without bail and are due

1497
01:28:05,800 --> 01:28:07,400
Speaker 20: back in court early next month.

1498
01:28:07,920 --> 01:28:10,519
Speaker 2: All right, there you go. The very latest Congressman Rae

1499
01:28:10,520 --> 01:28:16,200
Speaker 2: in Define from Florida weighing out on that cut number eight.

1500
01:28:18,240 --> 01:28:20,640
Speaker 17: One word, it's deport I mean. The fact of the

1501
01:28:20,680 --> 01:28:25,120
Speaker 17: matter is Mondami hates America, hates the Judeo Christian civilization

1502
01:28:25,240 --> 01:28:28,360
Speaker 17: that we have here. You know, we're allowed to protest

1503
01:28:28,479 --> 01:28:31,840
Speaker 17: whatever we want. We hear this all the time from

1504
01:28:31,920 --> 01:28:34,679
Speaker 17: the left. When they were doing all this ridiculous stuff

1505
01:28:34,680 --> 01:28:38,400
Speaker 17: on our college campuses, people like this jerk mayor talked

1506
01:28:38,400 --> 01:28:40,320
Speaker 17: about how they had a First Amendment right to say

1507
01:28:40,360 --> 01:28:41,240
Speaker 17: whatever they want.

1508
01:28:41,720 --> 01:28:42,719
Speaker 3: That's not the issue.

1509
01:28:42,720 --> 01:28:43,879
Speaker 13: The issue is two.

1510
01:28:43,880 --> 01:28:48,559
Speaker 17: Muslim terrorists who were inspired by Isis, who traveled to

1511
01:28:48,600 --> 01:28:51,400
Speaker 17: the Middle East threw bombs at people.

1512
01:28:51,800 --> 01:28:52,960
Speaker 3: That is the issue.

1513
01:28:53,000 --> 01:28:55,559
Speaker 17: You are allowed to say whatever you want in this country.

1514
01:28:55,800 --> 01:28:58,799
Speaker 17: You're not allowed to throw bombs. But Mandami is covering

1515
01:28:59,080 --> 01:29:01,960
Speaker 17: for the Muslim tears that he supports, whether it's in

1516
01:29:02,000 --> 01:29:04,719
Speaker 17: the Middle East or whether it's in America. He should

1517
01:29:04,760 --> 01:29:07,839
Speaker 17: be stripped of his citizenship and he should be deported.

1518
01:29:08,320 --> 01:29:11,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with him. I agree with him. You

1519
01:29:11,120 --> 01:29:13,200
Speaker 2: got to you gotta do it. You gotta crank down.

1520
01:29:13,439 --> 01:29:16,280
Speaker 2: You do Dylan when was the last time he went

Speaker 2: out for dinner.

1522
01:29:18,040 --> 01:29:21,400
Speaker 13: Oh, it's been a minute. Actually, I always I tend

1523
01:29:21,400 --> 01:29:24,559
Speaker 13: to order in and that's not smart financially, but it's

1524
01:29:24,600 --> 01:29:25,080
Speaker 13: been a minute.

1525
01:29:25,520 --> 01:29:27,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not judging. I mean we dis ordered. We

1526
01:29:27,240 --> 01:29:29,360
Speaker 2: had a Chick fil A, we had the whole staff.

1527
01:29:29,400 --> 01:29:30,479
Speaker 2: We grabbed Chick fil A.

1528
01:29:30,560 --> 01:29:32,240
Speaker 13: I've been trying to eat better as well.

1529
01:29:32,320 --> 01:29:34,960
Speaker 2: So the couples, we got a new guy and he

1530
01:29:35,120 --> 01:29:37,280
Speaker 2: was like, I'll have a number seven. We're like, wait,

1531
01:29:37,560 --> 01:29:39,960
Speaker 2: how do you you memorize your order?

1532
01:29:40,320 --> 01:29:42,360
Speaker 13: Yeah, I only know number one from Chick fil A,

1533
01:29:42,560 --> 01:29:44,880
Speaker 13: so number seven is way way down there. I don't

1534
01:29:44,880 --> 01:29:45,479
Speaker 13: even know what that is.

1535
01:29:45,520 --> 01:29:46,440
Speaker 2: That's very specific.

1536
01:29:46,560 --> 01:29:48,760
Speaker 13: It is. That is very specific, at least the grilled

1537
01:29:48,800 --> 01:29:50,280
Speaker 13: chicken sandwich. If you were curious, Oh.

1538
01:29:50,280 --> 01:29:52,919
Speaker 2: Was that right? Yeah, well I was somewhat curious.

1539
01:29:53,240 --> 01:29:54,800
Speaker 13: Well, since we're both, you know, kind of we're on

1540
01:29:54,880 --> 01:29:56,599
Speaker 13: a diet, so we need to know number seven.

1541
01:29:56,720 --> 01:29:59,439
Speaker 2: That's that's good to know. I did not have number seven.

1542
01:30:00,120 --> 01:30:04,280
Speaker 2: Number one. The reason I asked that is there somebody

1543
01:30:04,360 --> 01:30:06,400
Speaker 2: that wrote this on social media and it's getting a

1544
01:30:06,400 --> 01:30:10,160
Speaker 2: little attention. She said, my husband and I went out

1545
01:30:10,200 --> 01:30:12,680
Speaker 2: to dinner last night and the bill came out to

1546
01:30:12,720 --> 01:30:16,559
Speaker 2: two hundred dollars. I left a fifty dollars tip on

1547
01:30:16,600 --> 01:30:19,000
Speaker 2: the table. That's a pretty good tip for a two

1548
01:30:19,080 --> 01:30:22,120
Speaker 2: hundred dollars meal. That's not too bad, thinking it was

1549
01:30:22,160 --> 01:30:26,120
Speaker 2: pretty reasonable. But the waiter looked at it and refused

1550
01:30:26,120 --> 01:30:29,880
Speaker 2: to take the tip. The waiter then told the couple

1551
01:30:31,080 --> 01:30:33,120
Speaker 2: that if we weren't willing to leave at least eighty

1552
01:30:33,160 --> 01:30:35,439
Speaker 2: five dollars, we should not be eating out in the

1553
01:30:35,479 --> 01:30:40,759
Speaker 2: first place. What ow, the woman says, I was honestly

1554
01:30:40,800 --> 01:30:44,080
Speaker 2: caught off guard. I felt embarrassed sitting there, like we'd

1555
01:30:44,080 --> 01:30:48,880
Speaker 2: done something wrong. We weren't trying to be cheap or disrespectful.

1556
01:30:49,240 --> 01:30:52,680
Speaker 2: I genuinely thought fifty dollars was a fair tip for

1557
01:30:52,720 --> 01:30:55,840
Speaker 2: that bill. Now I keep replaying the whole thing in

1558
01:30:55,840 --> 01:30:59,599
Speaker 2: my head, wondering if I misjudged it, and questioning whether

1559
01:31:00,080 --> 01:31:06,080
Speaker 2: dollars really wasn't enough. SEEZ, could you imagine.

1560
01:31:05,680 --> 01:31:07,559
Speaker 13: I just said, yeah, i'll take I'll take it back

1561
01:31:07,600 --> 01:31:08,439
Speaker 13: then if you don't want it.

1562
01:31:08,640 --> 01:31:11,320
Speaker 2: Wow, that's you know what I would have done. I

1563
01:31:11,360 --> 01:31:13,320
Speaker 2: would have just slipped the I would you know, I

1564
01:31:13,320 --> 01:31:15,880
Speaker 2: would have taken the fifty dollars back, and I would

1565
01:31:15,920 --> 01:31:20,920
Speaker 2: have slipped a one dollar bill in there. You go, unbelievable,

1566
01:31:22,080 --> 01:31:26,880
Speaker 2: that's that's crazy. But anyway, that's and again it's I

1567
01:31:26,880 --> 01:31:30,160
Speaker 2: mean that's a pretty reasonable I mean that's above twenty percent.

1568
01:31:30,600 --> 01:31:33,800
Speaker 13: Yeah. Well maybe maybe he didn't deserve it, maybe he

1569
01:31:33,800 --> 01:31:35,120
Speaker 13: didn't deserve more than fifty dollars.

1570
01:31:35,200 --> 01:31:37,880
Speaker 2: You never know, but that's I mean, the average tip.

1571
01:31:37,920 --> 01:31:39,479
Speaker 2: What do you what is it? Twenty percent?

1572
01:31:39,560 --> 01:31:39,760
Speaker 14: Now?

1573
01:31:39,840 --> 01:31:40,960
Speaker 2: Is that what people say?

1574
01:31:41,000 --> 01:31:42,360
Speaker 13: Pretty average? Yeah? Twenty percent.

1575
01:31:43,000 --> 01:31:45,840
Speaker 2: I mean, look, I and I have a long history

1576
01:31:45,880 --> 01:31:48,280
Speaker 2: of doing this. I normally tip one hundred percent. You know,

1577
01:31:48,320 --> 01:31:50,559
Speaker 2: I just like to be generous and the service is

1578
01:31:50,600 --> 01:31:53,519
Speaker 2: really good. I I always, I always tip at least

1579
01:31:53,560 --> 01:31:56,519
Speaker 2: twenty five percent, and then if the service is really good,

1580
01:31:56,760 --> 01:31:59,519
Speaker 2: I'll do one hundred percent. And I'm it's an honor

1581
01:31:59,520 --> 01:32:02,160
Speaker 2: to be able to do that because all those guys

1582
01:32:02,200 --> 01:32:05,320
Speaker 2: and gals work very hard. But the reality is this

1583
01:32:05,439 --> 01:32:07,920
Speaker 2: tipping thing, it's off the charts. I think we're going

1584
01:32:08,000 --> 01:32:10,680
Speaker 2: to have a civil war based on how much you

1585
01:32:10,720 --> 01:32:11,799
Speaker 2: should tip somebody.

1586
01:32:12,600 --> 01:32:15,760
Speaker 13: Yeah, the the little tablets that they have sometimes at

1587
01:32:15,800 --> 01:32:18,760
Speaker 13: these coffee shops and they just flip it around, Oh

1588
01:32:18,800 --> 01:32:20,720
Speaker 13: my gosh, and then they stare at you until you

1589
01:32:20,760 --> 01:32:21,320
Speaker 13: press something.

1590
01:32:21,360 --> 01:32:25,280
Speaker 2: It happened to me today today and I'm sitting there

1591
01:32:25,280 --> 01:32:27,439
Speaker 2: and hold on, here's the thing. The only thing I

1592
01:32:27,479 --> 01:32:31,000
Speaker 2: did was get a cup of coffee, well actually was tea,

1593
01:32:31,080 --> 01:32:32,640
Speaker 2: and they flip it over and it's like, give you

1594
01:32:32,720 --> 01:32:34,880
Speaker 2: tipping options, and you're like.

1595
01:32:35,479 --> 01:32:38,400
Speaker 13: For what have you noticed that the default numbers on

1596
01:32:38,439 --> 01:32:40,120
Speaker 13: those tablets are getting higher and.

1597
01:32:40,120 --> 01:32:42,800
Speaker 2: High as they are it was almost so I picked

1598
01:32:42,800 --> 01:32:45,360
Speaker 2: a three dollars tip, but I'm like the tea was

1599
01:32:45,439 --> 01:32:50,280
Speaker 2: like four bucks or something. That's seven dollars. What's the point?

1600
01:32:50,280 --> 01:32:52,400
Speaker 2: And then you have to deliver your own mug.

1601
01:32:53,080 --> 01:32:53,519
Speaker 13: Yeah you do.

1602
01:32:53,640 --> 01:32:54,759
Speaker 2: You have to bush your own.

1603
01:32:54,640 --> 01:32:56,080
Speaker 13: Table, you get to clean it, you got to put

1604
01:32:56,080 --> 01:32:56,439
Speaker 13: it back.

1605
01:32:57,720 --> 01:33:00,280
Speaker 2: There's got to be a better way. There has to

1606
01:33:00,320 --> 01:33:03,120
Speaker 2: be a better way. But I just I don't understand

1607
01:33:03,200 --> 01:33:08,080
Speaker 2: if you are if if you're not being served, why

1608
01:33:08,120 --> 01:33:09,400
Speaker 2: should you tip somebody.

1609
01:33:10,360 --> 01:33:12,479
Speaker 13: It's a good point. I don't really have any arguments

1610
01:33:12,520 --> 01:33:12,920
Speaker 13: against that.

1611
01:33:13,560 --> 01:33:16,960
Speaker 2: I'm just do you at what point? Fine? I mean,

1612
01:33:17,280 --> 01:33:19,439
Speaker 2: why not just charge a set them out for the

1613
01:33:19,479 --> 01:33:22,200
Speaker 2: food and be done with it. Yeah, that's what I

1614
01:33:22,200 --> 01:33:25,960
Speaker 2: don't understand. Simple or the worst part. And I got

1615
01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:29,200
Speaker 2: I called onto this really quickly. They automatically add for

1616
01:33:29,320 --> 01:33:31,519
Speaker 2: larger groups, I'll just go ahead and throw in a

1617
01:33:31,560 --> 01:33:34,679
Speaker 2: tap for you. And they don't tell you that though.

1618
01:33:34,960 --> 01:33:36,840
Speaker 2: You have to read the fine print. And I've been

1619
01:33:36,880 --> 01:33:40,800
Speaker 2: caught a time or two double tipping at one hundred

1620
01:33:40,840 --> 01:33:44,160
Speaker 2: percent for crying out loud. That's insane, all right, What

1621
01:33:44,200 --> 01:33:46,720
Speaker 2: would you do, ladies and gentlemen if the waiter said, yeah,

1622
01:33:46,760 --> 01:33:48,719
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm going to need more a better tip.

1623
01:33:49,080 --> 01:33:51,559
Speaker 2: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six

1624
01:33:51,640 --> 01:33:54,639
Speaker 2: are number. That's nine oh one two six zero five

1625
01:33:54,800 --> 01:34:09,240
Speaker 2: nine two six Dylan, And I'm furious. Do you tip

1626
01:34:09,680 --> 01:34:12,080
Speaker 2: like when you're at a fast food joint, say you

1627
01:34:12,160 --> 01:34:15,040
Speaker 2: go to Chick fil a? Is it really true? By

1628
01:34:15,040 --> 01:34:16,920
Speaker 2: the way, that it's now called Satan's Chicken?

1629
01:34:17,040 --> 01:34:20,400
Speaker 13: Is that I think we've changed it from the Lord's Chicken.

1630
01:34:20,400 --> 01:34:20,680
Speaker 13: I don't know.

1631
01:34:20,720 --> 01:34:22,479
Speaker 2: If it's Satan's Chicken, it's hard to keep up.

1632
01:34:22,680 --> 01:34:24,880
Speaker 13: It's like in the middle now they need to redeem themselves.

1633
01:34:25,680 --> 01:34:28,599
Speaker 13: But your question, I don't think so. I don't think

1634
01:34:28,640 --> 01:34:29,559
Speaker 13: I tip it fast food.

1635
01:34:30,120 --> 01:34:32,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think I would have ever. I don't

1636
01:34:32,800 --> 01:34:35,200
Speaker 2: think I've ever tipped at you know, at a fast food.

1637
01:34:34,960 --> 01:34:37,519
Speaker 13: They're making it harder and harder because McDonald's is just

1638
01:34:37,600 --> 01:34:39,720
Speaker 13: like a bunch of screens everywhere. Now you don't even

1639
01:34:39,720 --> 01:34:41,640
Speaker 13: see a person McDonald's.

1640
01:34:41,720 --> 01:34:42,320
Speaker 2: That's sad.

1641
01:34:42,479 --> 01:34:44,559
Speaker 13: So Chick fil A probably would be the only place

1642
01:34:44,560 --> 01:34:46,479
Speaker 13: I would tip because they actually bring your food.

1643
01:34:46,240 --> 01:34:48,360
Speaker 2: Out to you, and they do it with a smile.

1644
01:34:48,160 --> 01:34:49,479
Speaker 13: And they say my pleasure at the end.

1645
01:34:49,840 --> 01:34:52,000
Speaker 2: They do, they do, And you got to try not

1646
01:34:52,040 --> 01:34:54,120
Speaker 2: to run over the people. Those kids, you know, they're

1647
01:34:54,160 --> 01:34:56,879
Speaker 2: running around the drying through and you know you don't.

1648
01:34:56,640 --> 01:34:58,760
Speaker 13: Giving food out early, and you can't. You have to

1649
01:34:58,800 --> 01:34:59,519
Speaker 13: watch out for him.

1650
01:35:00,000 --> 01:35:02,200
Speaker 2: What happens is and and you know we've got the

1651
01:35:02,240 --> 01:35:04,960
Speaker 2: double drive throughs now, so you have to be careful

1652
01:35:05,000 --> 01:35:07,000
Speaker 2: because what will happen is somebody in the in the

1653
01:35:07,160 --> 01:35:11,120
Speaker 2: drive through lane closest to the building will inevitably get

1654
01:35:11,120 --> 01:35:13,720
Speaker 2: their food before the car in front of them. So

1655
01:35:13,760 --> 01:35:15,719
Speaker 2: they'll try to, you know, lurch out.

1656
01:35:16,000 --> 01:35:20,040
Speaker 13: Yeah, somehow it is an efficient system, they do know.

1657
01:35:20,320 --> 01:35:22,519
Speaker 13: They have like little exits within the line that help

1658
01:35:22,560 --> 01:35:25,080
Speaker 13: you get out, but it's a little chaotic.

1659
01:35:25,120 --> 01:35:26,160
Speaker 2: What happened to the cows?

1660
01:35:26,720 --> 01:35:27,320
Speaker 13: The cows?

1661
01:35:27,439 --> 01:35:28,120
Speaker 2: I missed the cow.

1662
01:35:28,200 --> 01:35:29,439
Speaker 13: I haven't seen the cows in a minute.

1663
01:35:29,520 --> 01:35:30,599
Speaker 2: The illiterate cows.

1664
01:35:30,760 --> 01:35:34,040
Speaker 13: Hope that's not what the new chicken sandwiches. I think

1665
01:35:34,080 --> 01:35:34,439
Speaker 13: we're good.

1666
01:35:34,439 --> 01:35:35,200
Speaker 2: There a burger.

1667
01:35:36,760 --> 01:35:39,840
Speaker 13: Jeez, they start no chick fil I would never do that. Yeah,

1668
01:35:39,840 --> 01:35:41,920
Speaker 13: but I haven't seen their mascot back in the in

1669
01:35:41,960 --> 01:35:42,400
Speaker 13: the restaurant.

1670
01:35:42,439 --> 01:35:44,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're coming out with some apparently some new foods.

1671
01:35:45,760 --> 01:35:47,160
Speaker 2: They lost me on kale.

1672
01:35:47,560 --> 01:35:51,320
Speaker 13: The kale and then the uh oh gosh, the cauliflower breast.

1673
01:35:51,320 --> 01:35:54,080
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I had nightmares over that.

1674
01:35:54,200 --> 01:35:55,680
Speaker 13: Yeah, a lot of people, you know.

1675
01:35:55,840 --> 01:35:58,400
Speaker 2: I took a bite and I said, oh, I can't.

1676
01:35:58,479 --> 01:36:00,439
Speaker 2: My tongue said, no, I can't all of this.

1677
01:36:01,120 --> 01:36:02,559
Speaker 13: It knew immediately it wasn't real.

1678
01:36:02,760 --> 01:36:04,719
Speaker 2: I had to just spit it out.

1679
01:36:04,800 --> 01:36:06,320
Speaker 13: No amount of breading could fix that.

1680
01:36:06,439 --> 01:36:06,519
Speaker 3: No.

1681
01:36:06,600 --> 01:36:08,599
Speaker 2: But the weird thing was, you took a bite out

1682
01:36:08,600 --> 01:36:10,960
Speaker 2: of that cauliflower thing and it like morphed back.

1683
01:36:11,400 --> 01:36:11,839
Speaker 13: Yeah.

1684
01:36:11,920 --> 01:36:15,120
Speaker 2: I don't know what's up with that. Speaking of cows,

1685
01:36:17,680 --> 01:36:21,880
Speaker 2: Democrat Maxine Dexter, she is a white woman, and she

1686
01:36:22,040 --> 01:36:26,480
Speaker 2: says that white milk is a sign of white supremacy.

1687
01:36:28,600 --> 01:36:30,880
Speaker 2: I no, I'm not kidding. She says that putting white

1688
01:36:30,880 --> 01:36:37,360
Speaker 2: milk in schools is akin to white supremacy. Now, I

1689
01:36:37,360 --> 01:36:40,200
Speaker 2: didn't realize this was a thing, but apparently it is

1690
01:36:40,280 --> 01:36:43,479
Speaker 2: a thing. This is the headline from the George Washington

1691
01:36:43,600 --> 01:36:48,680
Speaker 2: University Law School, the troubling link between milk and racism.

1692
01:36:50,600 --> 01:36:55,439
Speaker 2: Oh jeez, So there is a Huffington Post report and

1693
01:36:55,760 --> 01:36:59,880
Speaker 2: they're saying that there appears the reason why they say

1694
01:36:59,920 --> 01:37:04,600
Speaker 2: that milk is now connected to white supremacy is that apparently,

1695
01:37:05,040 --> 01:37:09,240
Speaker 2: during a white nationalist podcast, some of the people on

1696
01:37:09,280 --> 01:37:15,040
Speaker 2: the show actually drank from a glass of milk. According

1697
01:37:15,080 --> 01:37:17,360
Speaker 2: to Havin and Post, these and other incidents have been

1698
01:37:17,360 --> 01:37:22,200
Speaker 2: described as evidence that some white supremacist are co opting

1699
01:37:22,360 --> 01:37:25,880
Speaker 2: cow's milk as a symbol of their belief that white

1700
01:37:25,880 --> 01:37:31,400
Speaker 2: people are wholesome and pure. What if we like two percent.

1701
01:37:32,880 --> 01:37:35,160
Speaker 13: You're a little better than if you like two percent.

1702
01:37:35,520 --> 01:37:38,280
Speaker 2: I am a two percent guy, clearly not fat free, but.

1703
01:37:38,880 --> 01:37:42,000
Speaker 13: I'm not any If you find me drinking milk by itself,

1704
01:37:42,080 --> 01:37:43,200
Speaker 13: you should probably fire me.

1705
01:37:43,680 --> 01:37:47,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not a whole milk whole milk guy, or

1706
01:37:47,200 --> 01:37:48,400
Speaker 2: whole milk for that matter.

1707
01:37:48,479 --> 01:37:50,880
Speaker 13: See seems like the person that thinks choco milk comes

1708
01:37:50,880 --> 01:37:52,200
Speaker 13: from brown cows.

1709
01:37:51,840 --> 01:37:54,800
Speaker 2: Well that's the thing here. What about chocolate milk? I mean,

1710
01:37:55,000 --> 01:37:58,040
Speaker 2: and don't don't get me started on the strawberry.

1711
01:37:57,479 --> 01:37:59,479
Speaker 13: You who, yeah, who knows where that is?

1712
01:38:00,040 --> 01:38:00,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's frightening.

1713
01:38:00,880 --> 01:38:02,960
Speaker 13: I don't even know what liquid that comes out of.

1714
01:38:02,920 --> 01:38:11,719
Speaker 2: That is that native? Don't native milk? Hold on red, yellow, black, white?

1715
01:38:11,840 --> 01:38:14,240
Speaker 2: They are precious. I'm trying to go through the Sunday

1716
01:38:14,280 --> 01:38:14,880
Speaker 2: School saw.

1717
01:38:15,600 --> 01:38:17,679
Speaker 13: There's probably another flavor of milk out there. We don't

1718
01:38:17,680 --> 01:38:18,479
Speaker 13: even know so.

1719
01:38:19,200 --> 01:38:22,639
Speaker 2: According to Huffington Post, right wing news sites like Brent

1720
01:38:22,720 --> 01:38:27,799
Speaker 2: Bart have mocked the idea that milk is racist, no kidding,

1721
01:38:28,040 --> 01:38:32,760
Speaker 2: no kidding, huffingdam Post. Those who noted milk's popularity with

1722
01:38:32,840 --> 01:38:36,479
Speaker 2: white supremacists have been taunted as fools who fell for

1723
01:38:36,600 --> 01:38:38,840
Speaker 2: what was just a prank that was not meant to

1724
01:38:38,880 --> 01:38:42,519
Speaker 2: be taken seriously. But whether or not the alt right

1725
01:38:42,720 --> 01:38:47,000
Speaker 2: was indulging in a trolling exercise, some academics say these

1726
01:38:47,040 --> 01:38:53,759
Speaker 2: events are part of a murky history involving cow's milk. Well, okay,

1727
01:38:53,920 --> 01:38:57,719
Speaker 2: I'm so, what are they recommending we do here? That's

1728
01:38:57,800 --> 01:39:00,920
Speaker 2: the question. Are they suggesting that we we have to

1729
01:39:00,920 --> 01:39:02,439
Speaker 2: eat something else with our cereal?

1730
01:39:02,520 --> 01:39:02,760
Speaker 3: Now?

1731
01:39:03,360 --> 01:39:10,200
Speaker 2: Do we compensate by drinking from brown milk? Pardon me?

1732
01:39:10,360 --> 01:39:16,120
Speaker 2: Chocolate milk. Yeah, is that what they're suggesting?

1733
01:39:16,520 --> 01:39:20,880
Speaker 13: Well, if you mix the white milk with say, cinnamonos crunch,

1734
01:39:21,240 --> 01:39:24,479
Speaker 13: you know, it changes into a sort of cinnamoni milk,

1735
01:39:24,479 --> 01:39:26,000
Speaker 13: it's not really white milk anymore.

1736
01:39:26,080 --> 01:39:26,240
Speaker 12: You know.

1737
01:39:26,320 --> 01:39:27,160
Speaker 2: That's a fair point.

1738
01:39:27,280 --> 01:39:29,639
Speaker 13: Yeah, maybe that's what they want.

1739
01:39:30,040 --> 01:39:32,719
Speaker 2: And don't even get me started with a lactose intolerant crowd.

1740
01:39:33,000 --> 01:39:34,600
Speaker 13: Yeah, you know, isn't they milk milk for that?

1741
01:39:34,720 --> 01:39:34,920
Speaker 4: Now?

1742
01:39:35,479 --> 01:39:38,240
Speaker 13: It's like, I don't know what these drinks are. I

1743
01:39:38,240 --> 01:39:39,519
Speaker 13: don't think it's milk anymore.

1744
01:39:39,560 --> 01:39:41,760
Speaker 2: You would have loved this. So I I met Ho

1745
01:39:41,880 --> 01:39:46,439
Speaker 2: Foods the other day and I parked again. They have

1746
01:39:46,560 --> 01:39:50,000
Speaker 2: like seventy eight little you know, charging stations, and nobody

1747
01:39:50,080 --> 01:39:53,800
Speaker 2: drives nobody drives a battery powered car in the neighborhood.

1748
01:39:54,240 --> 01:39:56,200
Speaker 2: So I just pulled the Cadillac up, you know, and

1749
01:39:56,240 --> 01:40:00,280
Speaker 2: everybody's looking at me. They're staring at me, and I'm like, hey,

1750
01:40:00,320 --> 01:40:01,000
Speaker 2: how's it going?

1751
01:40:02,000 --> 01:40:03,240
Speaker 13: They probably just know it's your spot.

1752
01:40:03,439 --> 01:40:09,560
Speaker 2: Oh they know who I am too. So inconsiderate, So inconsiderate.

1753
01:40:09,960 --> 01:40:12,519
Speaker 2: What if somebody need to plug their battery powered car

1754
01:40:12,640 --> 01:40:15,720
Speaker 2: in for thirty minutes and you know what I would

1755
01:40:15,760 --> 01:40:18,519
Speaker 2: have done. I actually have an electrical OUTLT in my

1756
01:40:18,960 --> 01:40:21,680
Speaker 2: gas powered catleeg I would have. I'm like, you know what,

1757
01:40:21,720 --> 01:40:25,360
Speaker 2: you can plug your car into mine. Well, I don't

1758
01:40:25,400 --> 01:40:26,800
Speaker 2: like mating cars like that.

1759
01:40:26,880 --> 01:40:27,640
Speaker 13: Yeah, you know what I mean.

1760
01:40:28,160 --> 01:40:30,439
Speaker 2: So anyway, I'm in the I'm in the ho Foods

1761
01:40:30,880 --> 01:40:33,479
Speaker 2: and I'm trying to get I was gonna get some milk.

1762
01:40:33,600 --> 01:40:36,840
Speaker 2: I was looking for milk the two percent. So I'm

1763
01:40:36,840 --> 01:40:40,479
Speaker 2: walking and there's like the these row after row of

1764
01:40:40,600 --> 01:40:44,519
Speaker 2: these of the cases. And finally I'm throwing my hand.

1765
01:40:44,800 --> 01:40:48,240
Speaker 2: They've got the cashew milk and the almond milk and

1766
01:40:48,280 --> 01:40:51,120
Speaker 2: the squirrel milk and all this milk.

1767
01:40:50,920 --> 01:40:54,360
Speaker 13: I forget about Kiefer is that brand? Oh?

1768
01:40:54,400 --> 01:40:55,639
Speaker 2: I thought you smoke that.

1769
01:40:55,640 --> 01:40:58,599
Speaker 13: That's like the raw. It's like an unfiltered milk.

1770
01:40:59,040 --> 01:41:02,840
Speaker 2: So finally I'm tracking down one of the one of

1771
01:41:02,880 --> 01:41:06,439
Speaker 2: the petuli scented Whole Foods workers and I'm like, pardon me,

1772
01:41:06,439 --> 01:41:08,000
Speaker 2: can you help me? And they're like, yes, sir, what

1773
01:41:08,120 --> 01:41:11,960
Speaker 2: the very polite people, very kind people there at Whole Foods.

1774
01:41:12,280 --> 01:41:15,240
Speaker 2: And I said, I said, Whole Foods worker, I need

1775
01:41:15,240 --> 01:41:17,360
Speaker 2: some help here. They said, what can we do for you? Sir?

1776
01:41:17,760 --> 01:41:21,080
Speaker 2: I said, where is the milk for normal people. That's

1777
01:41:21,120 --> 01:41:22,400
Speaker 2: exactly what I said.

1778
01:41:24,360 --> 01:41:26,760
Speaker 13: Where's the pagan milk, ma'am.

1779
01:41:27,080 --> 01:41:30,519
Speaker 2: I'm just I'm like, can you just help me, help

1780
01:41:30,560 --> 01:41:33,559
Speaker 2: me out, help a brother out here. So anyway, they

1781
01:41:33,600 --> 01:41:35,479
Speaker 2: trying to sell me on this almond milk, and I

1782
01:41:35,600 --> 01:41:37,160
Speaker 2: just can't for the life of me. I'm like, how

1783
01:41:37,200 --> 01:41:39,559
Speaker 2: do you squeeze the almond? I mean, that's what gets me,

1784
01:41:39,720 --> 01:41:43,000
Speaker 2: is like these little tiny almonds and you're squeezing them.

1785
01:41:43,160 --> 01:41:46,120
Speaker 13: It's a great question. The two percent is probably the

1786
01:41:46,120 --> 01:41:47,920
Speaker 13: most normal milk that you can find in there.

1787
01:41:48,280 --> 01:41:53,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it didn't taste like milk. I'm gonna have

1788
01:41:53,360 --> 01:41:56,679
Speaker 2: to probably switch back to Kroger milk or or super

1789
01:41:56,720 --> 01:41:57,200
Speaker 2: Low milk.

1790
01:41:57,320 --> 01:41:58,320
Speaker 13: You're probably better off.

1791
01:41:58,720 --> 01:42:02,320
Speaker 2: But I can't go to super Low because they they cook.

1792
01:42:02,400 --> 01:42:05,120
Speaker 2: They have a like a deli there, but it's like

1793
01:42:05,200 --> 01:42:08,280
Speaker 2: a Southern themed, you know, grocery, so a great grocery store.

1794
01:42:08,800 --> 01:42:12,360
Speaker 2: But I can't go on Chitlan day. It just you

1795
01:42:12,479 --> 01:42:15,280
Speaker 2: walk in and it just smacks you right upside the face.

1796
01:42:16,800 --> 01:42:20,479
Speaker 2: Very pungent, yeah, very pungent. So anyway, I don't know

1797
01:42:20,520 --> 01:42:22,240
Speaker 2: what they put in the milk over at Hope Foods,

1798
01:42:22,280 --> 01:42:27,160
Speaker 2: but it's not for me. Yeah, I'm just saying, what

1799
01:42:27,280 --> 01:42:31,479
Speaker 2: were we talking about? Oh, yes, tipping. So anyway back

1800
01:42:31,520 --> 01:42:35,719
Speaker 2: to wow, that was sort of a roundabout sort of way.

1801
01:42:36,280 --> 01:42:38,680
Speaker 2: But they've got to get this figured out. And you know,

1802
01:42:38,760 --> 01:42:40,840
Speaker 2: one of the things I've noticed is that so many

1803
01:42:40,880 --> 01:42:43,880
Speaker 2: restaurants are now shutting down, and everybody's blaming me on

1804
01:42:44,160 --> 01:42:48,920
Speaker 2: the COVID. It's the COVID. It really changed people's eating hambits. No,

1805
01:42:49,080 --> 01:42:52,400
Speaker 2: I don't think that's it. I think people are tired

1806
01:42:52,600 --> 01:42:54,640
Speaker 2: of going out for dinner, which used to be a

1807
01:42:54,720 --> 01:42:57,320
Speaker 2: nice It used to be a rare thing, right once

1808
01:42:57,439 --> 01:43:00,040
Speaker 2: or twice a week. You go out for dinner and

1809
01:43:00,120 --> 01:43:02,800
Speaker 2: you want to be treated well, and you know the

1810
01:43:02,880 --> 01:43:05,400
Speaker 2: staff and a lot of these places they could care less

1811
01:43:05,400 --> 01:43:09,519
Speaker 2: about you, and they make that known they you know,

1812
01:43:10,000 --> 01:43:12,160
Speaker 2: you always have to you know, at one point I

1813
01:43:12,280 --> 01:43:13,920
Speaker 2: was at a very nice restaurant. Had they gonna have

1814
01:43:13,960 --> 01:43:16,439
Speaker 2: to ask for a glass of water or the waiter

1815
01:43:16,640 --> 01:43:20,080
Speaker 2: just disappeared. So I think people are tired of that.

1816
01:43:20,240 --> 01:43:24,120
Speaker 2: You know, the service industry really need some work. Then

1817
01:43:24,400 --> 01:43:27,200
Speaker 2: you know, the food, it's good, I guess, but you know,

1818
01:43:27,240 --> 01:43:30,439
Speaker 2: when you're dealing with an irate you know, gen z

1819
01:43:30,720 --> 01:43:33,840
Speaker 2: or millennial server, and you know, they feel like, you

1820
01:43:33,880 --> 01:43:37,880
Speaker 2: know that you ought to be serving them. People just said,

1821
01:43:37,920 --> 01:43:40,200
Speaker 2: you know what, let's just stay home. And then when

1822
01:43:40,240 --> 01:43:42,160
Speaker 2: you've got the folks. And I don't know if this

1823
01:43:42,240 --> 01:43:44,840
Speaker 2: has been a big problem in your area, but people

1824
01:43:44,880 --> 01:43:49,120
Speaker 2: will come in to nice restaurants and they smell of

1825
01:43:49,200 --> 01:43:55,559
Speaker 2: the devil's lettuce, and that is an unappetizing thing. When

1826
01:43:55,560 --> 01:43:57,679
Speaker 2: somebody comes in and you just smell like a weed factory.

1827
01:43:57,720 --> 01:44:00,560
Speaker 2: And then you know, by the way, the rule of

1828
01:44:00,640 --> 01:44:02,320
Speaker 2: thumb is when you go to a restaurant, you never

1829
01:44:02,479 --> 01:44:05,519
Speaker 2: order the the what the appetizers. You know, they always

1830
01:44:05,560 --> 01:44:07,960
Speaker 2: get you on the appetizers. You just go in there,

1831
01:44:08,080 --> 01:44:10,760
Speaker 2: get your meal, order water, and get out of there.

1832
01:44:11,760 --> 01:44:14,120
Speaker 2: But when you've got somebody coming into the restaurant and

1833
01:44:14,160 --> 01:44:17,960
Speaker 2: they smell of weed, all of a sudden, you get

1834
01:44:18,080 --> 01:44:20,519
Speaker 2: the munchies and the next thing you know, you're chowing

1835
01:44:20,600 --> 01:44:22,439
Speaker 2: down through the entire appetiser section.

1836
01:44:24,320 --> 01:44:25,880
Speaker 13: I didn't think that's where you were going with that,

1837
01:44:26,160 --> 01:44:28,360
Speaker 13: but I can see how that works.

1838
01:44:28,840 --> 01:44:33,880
Speaker 2: It be the case, man got any funians, any Cheetos,

1839
01:44:34,400 --> 01:44:40,080
Speaker 2: hot fries? Wow, So I think that's the reason. And

1840
01:44:40,120 --> 01:44:43,120
Speaker 2: then when you when you when you factor in the

1841
01:44:43,280 --> 01:44:46,960
Speaker 2: you've got to you know, pay almost double for your tip.

1842
01:44:47,520 --> 01:44:49,679
Speaker 2: People are like, you know what, let's just stay home

1843
01:44:50,240 --> 01:44:52,879
Speaker 2: and with all the YouTube videos now you can actually

1844
01:44:52,920 --> 01:44:56,480
Speaker 2: make you know. I made red lobster tartar sauce. Ooh,

1845
01:44:56,520 --> 01:44:57,759
Speaker 2: it was life changing.

1846
01:44:58,120 --> 01:44:59,479
Speaker 13: Is it like in the you got it from the

1847
01:44:59,520 --> 01:45:00,919
Speaker 13: grocery store? It was like a mixed.

1848
01:45:00,880 --> 01:45:04,920
Speaker 2: No, I made it from scratch. Went on the Instagram

1849
01:45:05,400 --> 01:45:08,720
Speaker 2: and they had a red lobster turner sauce recipe and

1850
01:45:08,720 --> 01:45:11,719
Speaker 2: it was good. It was delicious. You cannot tell the difference.

1851
01:45:12,640 --> 01:45:14,880
Speaker 13: Hey, sounds pretty good.

1852
01:45:15,200 --> 01:45:17,880
Speaker 2: I'm just telling you. And it didn't cost me thirty

1853
01:45:17,920 --> 01:45:18,880
Speaker 2: forty bucks.

1854
01:45:18,560 --> 01:45:21,400
Speaker 13: That's true. No tipping on that.

1855
01:45:21,479 --> 01:45:25,439
Speaker 2: And no bad attitude. I'm just saying, all right, nine

1856
01:45:25,479 --> 01:45:27,920
Speaker 2: oh one two six zero five, nine two six is

1857
01:45:27,920 --> 01:45:31,400
Speaker 2: our telephone over? That's nine oh one two six zero

1858
01:45:31,560 --> 01:45:33,799
Speaker 2: five to nine to six.

1859
01:45:34,640 --> 01:45:35,000
Speaker 3: On to.

1860
01:45:36,880 --> 01:45:42,839
Speaker 2: A disturbing story and this one, folks. I've often wondered

1861
01:45:42,920 --> 01:45:45,240
Speaker 2: why they don't talk about this, and I have a

1862
01:45:45,320 --> 01:45:49,799
Speaker 2: theory about why they're not talking about this. But Catherine

1863
01:45:49,800 --> 01:45:53,639
Speaker 2: Herriage came out with an interesting report the other day

1864
01:45:54,560 --> 01:45:59,919
Speaker 2: talking about the number of kids who have been assault

1865
01:46:00,320 --> 01:46:05,120
Speaker 2: on school campuses. It's unbelievable the number of young people

1866
01:46:05,640 --> 01:46:10,200
Speaker 2: that have been sexually assaulted by teachers and staff in

1867
01:46:10,280 --> 01:46:14,240
Speaker 2: American classrooms, and it pales in comparison. Everybody talks about

1868
01:46:14,240 --> 01:46:18,040
Speaker 2: all the Catholic schools, pales in comparison to those numbers,

1869
01:46:18,320 --> 01:46:22,880
Speaker 2: and yet nobody's doing any stories about it at all.

1870
01:46:22,920 --> 01:46:24,760
Speaker 2: And I think one of the reasons why it is

1871
01:46:24,960 --> 01:46:27,559
Speaker 2: because you've got all these perverts that are out working

1872
01:46:27,600 --> 01:46:30,280
Speaker 2: in public schools, and many of them are teaching these

1873
01:46:30,360 --> 01:46:34,120
Speaker 2: kids all about the alphabet activist community. So I'm glad

1874
01:46:34,160 --> 01:46:37,800
Speaker 2: to see that Catherine Herriage is exposing this, shining a

1875
01:46:37,920 --> 01:46:42,720
Speaker 2: light on a very disturbing story here in America. Nine

1876
01:46:42,800 --> 01:46:45,120
Speaker 2: oh one two six zero five nine two six are

1877
01:46:45,120 --> 01:46:48,360
Speaker 2: a telephone number. That's nine oh one two six zero

1878
01:46:48,520 --> 01:46:51,559
Speaker 2: five nine two six. New survey from the University of

1879
01:46:51,560 --> 01:46:57,680
Speaker 2: Wisconsin Madison faculty. They released a new survey today and

1880
01:46:57,720 --> 01:47:02,120
Speaker 2: it shows an overwhelming ideological bias at the University of

1881
01:47:02,120 --> 01:47:06,680
Speaker 2: Wisconsin Madison. I know you are shocked. Here are some

1882
01:47:06,760 --> 01:47:10,640
Speaker 2: of the key results from the study. At the Tommy G.

1883
01:47:10,840 --> 01:47:16,440
Speaker 2: Thompson Center. Seventy percent seventy percent of the faculty identify

1884
01:47:16,479 --> 01:47:24,080
Speaker 2: as liberal, only nine percent identify as conservative. Are you

1885
01:47:24,120 --> 01:47:27,280
Speaker 2: surprised by those numbers? I'm surprised. It's not higher, to

1886
01:47:27,320 --> 01:47:31,240
Speaker 2: be honest with you. The bias getting worse by the generation.

1887
01:47:31,360 --> 01:47:36,000
Speaker 2: Assistant professors are more progressive than associate professors, who are

1888
01:47:36,040 --> 01:47:41,120
Speaker 2: more progressive than full professors. So what does this mean? Well,

1889
01:47:41,240 --> 01:47:44,679
Speaker 2: faculty said they would be less likely to support hiring

1890
01:47:44,680 --> 01:47:48,360
Speaker 2: a candidate who expressed a conservative view compared to one

1891
01:47:48,360 --> 01:47:53,920
Speaker 2: who expressed a liberal view on itsues like abortion, immigration,

1892
01:47:54,520 --> 01:48:01,320
Speaker 2: transgender sports, or affirmative action. Faculty of all ideological background

1893
01:48:01,400 --> 01:48:05,120
Speaker 2: said that people with progressive views would feel welcomed on campus.

1894
01:48:05,400 --> 01:48:10,040
Speaker 2: They said conservatives would feel less welcome conservative faculty. We're

1895
01:48:10,120 --> 01:48:14,240
Speaker 2: especially concerned about this. Liberal faculty were more likely to

1896
01:48:14,360 --> 01:48:18,879
Speaker 2: value racial diversity, while conservatives were more likely to value

1897
01:48:19,600 --> 01:48:24,960
Speaker 2: ideological diversity. Yeah, I'm not surprised by this, but this,

1898
01:48:25,080 --> 01:48:28,519
Speaker 2: again is something that the president is going to have

1899
01:48:28,560 --> 01:48:30,200
Speaker 2: to address it. I only they're going to be able

1900
01:48:30,240 --> 01:48:32,519
Speaker 2: to get around to it. I really don't. I hope,

1901
01:48:32,920 --> 01:48:35,400
Speaker 2: I hope that is not the case. But we shall see,

1902
01:48:35,600 --> 01:48:37,320
Speaker 2: all right, got to take a break. Nine oh one

1903
01:48:37,360 --> 01:48:39,720
Speaker 2: two six zero five nine two six. This is the

1904
01:48:39,760 --> 01:48:56,120
Speaker 2: Todd Sterns Show. All right, welcome back, This is the

1905
01:48:56,160 --> 01:49:00,679
Speaker 2: Todd Sterns Radio Show. Just a few moments oh over

1906
01:49:00,920 --> 01:49:03,639
Speaker 2: Antony white House pre press briefing of the White House

1907
01:49:03,680 --> 01:49:10,280
Speaker 2: doubling down, Caroline Lovett calling on John Thune to move

1908
01:49:10,320 --> 01:49:12,639
Speaker 2: forward on the same act. It's it's not gonna happen.

1909
01:49:12,680 --> 01:49:15,599
Speaker 2: It's gonna take. It's gonna take a lot, a lot

1910
01:49:15,680 --> 01:49:18,920
Speaker 2: for for that to get across the finish line. Nine

1911
01:49:19,000 --> 01:49:21,559
Speaker 2: oh one two six zero five nine two six hour

1912
01:49:21,640 --> 01:49:25,080
Speaker 2: telephone number. That's nine oh one two six zero five

1913
01:49:25,200 --> 01:49:30,160
Speaker 2: nine two six. Where is that story? I so this

1914
01:49:30,360 --> 01:49:33,720
Speaker 2: is from a report out of New Orleans, Louis Armstrong

1915
01:49:33,800 --> 01:49:39,000
Speaker 2: International Airport where wait times still up to four hours

1916
01:49:39,479 --> 01:49:43,599
Speaker 2: to get through TSA checkpoints cut fourteen please and then I.

1917
01:49:43,600 --> 01:49:48,920
Speaker 20: Walked over here right and my dog dropped.

1918
01:49:49,280 --> 01:49:53,679
Speaker 21: Travelers were shocked to see massive TSA line span across

1919
01:49:53,800 --> 01:49:58,120
Speaker 21: Armstrong International Airport. Countless people were in the long line

1920
01:49:58,160 --> 01:50:01,920
Speaker 21: that spanned from the parking arrivee around the airline check

1921
01:50:01,960 --> 01:50:04,639
Speaker 21: in area and ended on the second level.

1922
01:50:04,880 --> 01:50:06,840
Speaker 19: Had a way through a bunch of lines that was

1923
01:50:06,880 --> 01:50:10,200
Speaker 19: actually just one line for the security that wove all

1924
01:50:10,200 --> 01:50:12,400
Speaker 19: around and it was where does it start?

1925
01:50:12,439 --> 01:50:14,000
Speaker 3: And they're like in the garage.

1926
01:50:14,520 --> 01:50:17,960
Speaker 21: According to airport leaders, it's an impact from the partial

1927
01:50:18,000 --> 01:50:23,680
Speaker 21: government shutdown. On Sunday, they experienced a shortage of TSA workers,

1928
01:50:23,720 --> 01:50:26,960
Speaker 21: causing major delays through the security checkpoint.

1929
01:50:27,160 --> 01:50:29,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's just this is ridiculous.

1930
01:50:29,439 --> 01:50:30,160
Speaker 8: This is crazy.

1931
01:50:30,360 --> 01:50:34,320
Speaker 21: The long wait times caused many travelers to miss their flights.

1932
01:50:34,760 --> 01:50:37,559
Speaker 20: We get here, we go through customs and it's so

1933
01:50:37,920 --> 01:50:40,320
Speaker 20: packed in here, you don't even you can't even find

1934
01:50:40,320 --> 01:50:41,599
Speaker 20: the direction they're trying to get.

1935
01:50:41,920 --> 01:50:43,720
Speaker 2: No one wants to stand in this line for over

1936
01:50:43,760 --> 01:50:44,120
Speaker 2: an hour.

1937
01:50:44,240 --> 01:50:46,200
Speaker 10: So I mean, I've flown it out of New Orleans

1938
01:50:46,240 --> 01:50:48,759
Speaker 10: a lot and it's a big hub.

1939
01:50:48,840 --> 01:50:50,960
Speaker 20: So I'm like, they have the TSA on log It's

1940
01:50:51,120 --> 01:50:52,320
Speaker 20: never been like this.

1941
01:50:52,800 --> 01:50:56,160
Speaker 21: While TSA workers tried to keep the lines moving, the

1942
01:50:56,240 --> 01:50:59,519
Speaker 21: DeLay's altered travel plans for a lot of people.

1943
01:51:00,040 --> 01:51:04,080
Speaker 2: I mean, we're completely in shock, obviously, huge respect for

1944
01:51:04,120 --> 01:51:06,439
Speaker 2: the TSA workers that are here doing their jobs and

1945
01:51:06,800 --> 01:51:08,600
Speaker 2: making sure that people are able to get where they

1946
01:51:08,680 --> 01:51:12,720
Speaker 2: need to go. Well, there you go. Here's the thing.

1947
01:51:12,920 --> 01:51:16,120
Speaker 2: Once you get into the airport, they're at New Orleans,

1948
01:51:16,120 --> 01:51:19,960
Speaker 2: the brand new airport. You're okay, because some of the

1949
01:51:19,960 --> 01:51:23,360
Speaker 2: best restaurants in all of America are actually located in

1950
01:51:23,400 --> 01:51:26,519
Speaker 2: their brand new airport facility. Dylan, I know for spring break.

1951
01:51:26,560 --> 01:51:28,360
Speaker 2: Did you were you ever a spring breaker? Did you'd

1952
01:51:28,479 --> 01:51:30,200
Speaker 2: like to go travel cut out of the beach?

1953
01:51:30,479 --> 01:51:31,880
Speaker 13: I did? In high school. I think we went to

1954
01:51:31,880 --> 01:51:32,759
Speaker 13: the beach a couple of times.

1955
01:51:32,840 --> 01:51:36,760
Speaker 2: Redneck ravi era. Yes, of course, yeah, you can't. Those

1956
01:51:36,800 --> 01:51:39,760
Speaker 2: are the good old days. We would never fly. It

1957
01:51:39,800 --> 01:51:42,599
Speaker 2: was always you know, driving somewhere. And then in college

1958
01:51:42,720 --> 01:51:45,800
Speaker 2: we had a really strong like Baptist student union group

1959
01:51:45,880 --> 01:51:48,599
Speaker 2: and our college group, and we would always go out

1960
01:51:48,640 --> 01:51:52,120
Speaker 2: on mission trips during spring break, which were a lot

1961
01:51:52,120 --> 01:51:54,439
Speaker 2: of fun. You know, you do good and then you

1962
01:51:54,600 --> 01:51:55,320
Speaker 2: goof around.

1963
01:51:55,840 --> 01:51:59,919
Speaker 13: So yeah, but this time seems terrible to go anywhere.

1964
01:52:00,200 --> 01:52:03,639
Speaker 2: Yes, And I suspect even those college youth groups are

1965
01:52:03,760 --> 01:52:06,280
Speaker 2: losing their religion. Standing in lines out we're staying at

1966
01:52:06,320 --> 01:52:09,080
Speaker 2: home doing a mission trip. Now there you go, a staycation,

1967
01:52:09,439 --> 01:52:13,679
Speaker 2: stay mission cation something. Okay, we'll work on that, folks.

1968
01:52:13,800 --> 01:52:15,800
Speaker 2: Been a nice day. Thank you for hanging out with
