1
00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:14,240
Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's

2
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 1: common sense conservative commentary from Todd stars Samaritan.

3
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:32,200
Speaker 2: Well, Hello, everybody, Welcome to the Todd Sterns Radio Program.

4
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:36,479
Speaker 2: I am Todd Sterns, your host, your voice of truth

5
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:41,599
Speaker 2: and hope across the Fruited Plain. And we begin with

6
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:45,919
Speaker 2: an interesting story out of Indianapolis, and we're gonna get

7
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 2: to the fraud story in just a minute. And I

8
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:53,519
Speaker 2: have a theory about what's really going on in Minneapolis

9
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 2: and and and parts beyond. We're gonna get to that

10
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 2: in just a moment. But this story crossed my desk

11
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 2: earlier today and I thought, you know, this is this

12
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 2: is an interesting idea. You know, we've been we've been

13
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 2: dealing with with a lot of unrest in this country,

14
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 2: especially among the utes of America. They they're restless, and

15
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,400
Speaker 2: a lot of people have been blaming it on the

16
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 2: China virus and the fact that for several years the

17
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 2: children had been isolated, they weren't able to develop us

18
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:31,800
Speaker 2: social skills. And so we have all this fighting and

19
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:36,040
Speaker 2: all of this violence and whatnot happening across the nation,

20
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 2: and it's really gotten bad. And what I find very

21
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 2: interesting and hear me on this. I I it is.

22
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 2: It is prevalent, I believe in many demographics, but predominantly

23
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 2: in the in the in the black community, this has

24
00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 2: become a big issue. And we know it's becoming a

25
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 2: big issue because black leaders are now beginning to speak out.

26
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 2: And you can have the debate as to why. I mean,

27
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,360
Speaker 2: you know, AOC and others have come out and said, well,

28
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 2: you know the reason why kids are fighting and writing

29
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 2: and looting and doing all these others because they they're

30
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 2: just hungry and nothing satisfies hunger like a beautiful Gucci bang.

31
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,919
Speaker 2: So there are some that are saying this is all

32
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,640
Speaker 2: being done because others are saying, well, you know, the

33
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 2: ute of America, they have nothing to do, Todd, what

34
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,079
Speaker 2: do you expect them to do? Just send it home

35
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 2: and read a book? Who does that? These days? We

36
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 2: need community centers, we need more basketball courts. I mean,

37
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 2: that's that's the argument being made. But now it's gotten

38
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 2: so bad, so bad out there that even people in

39
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 2: the black community are saying enough is an. So there's

40
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 2: a story out of Indianapolis and there's a very popular

41
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 2: establishment there and this establishment, it's a night club. Many

42
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 2: of you may some of you may have been.

43
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:15,799
Speaker 3: I don't know.

44
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:20,079
Speaker 2: I'm not a big nightclub guy. I don't even try

45
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 2: to stay at the Piccadilly after dark. You know, I

46
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 2: want to get out of there. You never know what's

47
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 2: going to happen in me in the lie. I'm just

48
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 2: saying so anyway, there is a club, and this club

49
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 2: has been having some issues, and it's a really nice club.

50
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 2: It's an upscale it's an upscale club, and the name

51
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 2: of the club is Georgia Street Rhythm and Blues. It's

52
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 2: a lounge, and they're making national headlines and it's really

53
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 2: funny because people are accusing the lounge of being racist,

54
00:03:55,520 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 2: when in fact, I believe blacks actually own this lounge,

55
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 2: and I only say that based on the way they

56
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 2: have been able to frame the problem. This is from WIHTV.

57
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:16,599
Speaker 2: Kat Sandoval is the writer. Downtown Indianapolis bar Georgia Street

58
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 2: Rhythm and Blues Lounge just got an age restriction upgrade

59
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:27,840
Speaker 2: from over twenty one to thirty and older. The bar

60
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 2: posted an announcement early Sunday on social media. It said

61
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 2: the bar will now be restricted to people ages thirty

62
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 2: and older because younger patrons don't know how to conduct

63
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 2: themselves in the environment. Some bar hoppers said this is

64
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 2: great news, others not so much. Tom Howkin says, I

65
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,279
Speaker 2: love this. More bars should do this. I hate being

66
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 2: the older one at the bar. I've noticed that as

67
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 2: I got older. I'm thirty one. Wait, thirty one. Thirty

68
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 2: one is not old. Come on, sir, He says. There

69
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 2: needs to be more thirty plus bars in Indianapolis. It

70
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 2: turns out, in twenty twenty five alone, Indianapolis Metropolitan Police

71
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 2: say there were at least six cases at the lounge,

72
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 2: including thefts, public disturbances, and an assault. Abby Richardson not

73
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,479
Speaker 2: too keen about the new restriction. She just turned thirty,

74
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 2: and while she can get into the downtown bar, she

75
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 2: says she can't bring everyone in. All of my siblings

76
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,359
Speaker 2: are younger, my husband is younger than me. Oh she's

77
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 2: a cougar, and some friends are younger. So that's a turnoff.

78
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 2: If I was going with other people, obviously it's a turnoff.

79
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:50,360
Speaker 2: I would not go there. So I want to read

80
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:55,160
Speaker 2: to you the statement, and Dylan, I'm curious to hear

81
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 2: your thoughts because you have been known to go out

82
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 2: and participate paid in these kinds of activities, going out

83
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 2: to some of the cool hip places around around Memphis.

84
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,840
Speaker 2: So have you noticed that that's a problem. I mean

85
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 2: when you go to these establishments, Are there fisty cops?

86
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,160
Speaker 2: Is that what they call it? Are there Brew hahas?

87
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 4: Maybe a few here or there.

88
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 2: All right? And I have to and these aren't like

89
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,600
Speaker 2: dive bars. These are really nice places. Yeah, yeah, And

90
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 2: that's what I believe. This R and B bar is

91
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 2: here in an Indianapolis. But I want to tell them,

92
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,039
Speaker 2: I want to get your take here because I I

93
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 2: have a question about one phrase. This is what they wrote.

94
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,560
Speaker 2: Due to the increased number of y ends and y

95
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 2: f nds does that mean female an okay? Due to

96
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 2: the increased number of y ends and y f ns

97
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,040
Speaker 2: that clearly do not know how to conduct themselves and

98
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 2: they've grown and sexy environment. Georgia'stor Eat Lounge will now

99
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 2: be age restricted to thirty and over. Unless you are

100
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 2: a special guest of our staff or marketing team, you

101
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 2: will not be allowed entry. Do not contact us for

102
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 2: any under thirty birthdays or special events because the answer

103
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 2: will be no. Go somewhere else. I think they've had

104
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 2: some problems.

105
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 4: Wow, thirty is thirty is a lot. That's that's a

106
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 4: pretty high number to be But you know it's interesting.

107
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 2: I mean, if you're a bar owner and here's the problem,

108
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 2: you know, you could get if you have enough police reports.

109
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 2: I mean, you could get slapped with nuisance fees. They

110
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 2: could come in and shut you down, and then your livelihood,

111
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 2: you're the business that you own is gone. I mean,

112
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 2: and there's nothing you can do about it.

113
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 4: That's a good point. Maybe, I mean, I don't know.

114
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 4: I would just I would hate to see, you know,

115
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 4: maybe hopefully it's a temporary thing because I know a

116
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,119
Speaker 4: lot of young people, you know, they're just now getting

117
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 4: old enough to drink, but they want to be responsible,

118
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 4: so they're missing out maybe, but you know, wait wait

119
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 4: till you're thirty. I guess.

120
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 2: They play R and B music, and they had an

121
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 2: ugly sweater contest for Christmas. One guy is wearing a

122
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 2: sweater that reads horny and lit Class A joints.

123
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 4: He's ready for a good time class joint.

124
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 2: And I've noticed that most of the photographs of the

125
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 2: women are taking where it looks like they're well on

126
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 2: the grounds right The photographers, Oh, apparently they've also had

127
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 2: to install This is funny, they've had to install like

128
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 2: these metal detectors. So going to the club, that's how

129
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 2: that's how bad it is. And so look, I this

130
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:51,839
Speaker 2: may be your scene, and that may be what the

131
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 2: nightclub scene looks like these days. I don't know. I

132
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 2: was just never into all of that. And that's fine

133
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 2: if that's you. You do you, Oh, they have ladies

134
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 2: night op can't call up those photos, but I will

135
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 2: say this, how bad is it out there that you

136
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 2: can't even go to, say, you know, a bar, or

137
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 2: let's say apple Bee's. You can't even go to Applebee's

138
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 2: because you've got people fist fighting and Applebee's. Nobody knows

139
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 2: how to behave in public anymore? Have you noticed that,

140
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 2: Dylan is You're you guys are out and about. Have

141
00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 2: you just noticed people don't know how to act?

142
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like fights will start very easily over the stupidest things.

143
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 4: And obviously you know when people are drinking, you know,

144
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 4: fights can start over someone stole my straw. But like, yeah,

145
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 4: it's pretty out of hand, and it's just sad because

146
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,520
Speaker 4: it makes you not want to go out anymore, like

147
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 4: with your wife or with your family trying to have

148
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 4: a good time. People are just dis erupting everything.

149
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,959
Speaker 2: So you want to you just want a nice refreshing beverage.

151
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:57,960
Speaker 2: delicious sasparilla. And you know, it's like you're in the

152
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,560
Speaker 2: middle of a of an mma.

153
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 4: Should as signed a waiver to get into this.

154
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,960
Speaker 2: Bar, Ryan, It's but this is not But this is

155
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 2: happening all over the place. And if you think it's

156
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 2: bad at the bar, try to go into a Chuck

157
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 2: E Cheese.

158
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:15,959
Speaker 4: Don't get me started on Chuck E Cheese or a

159
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:16,679
Speaker 4: waffle house.

160
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 2: Oh wellady, yeah, but you know, at least with waffle

161
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:22,079
Speaker 2: house you're being entertained.

162
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, and the workers are you know, they're trained. It

163
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 4: seems like they've had mixed martial arts.

164
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,959
Speaker 2: Training, so they know how to wheel a gas iron

165
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 2: skillet or a spatula. So I bring all this up

166
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 2: because again it's the twenty one is that the kids

167
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:42,680
Speaker 2: in the twenties they're the problem. And there's a guy

168
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 2: named Dwight Howard, who, if you know anything about basketball,

169
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 2: is a former NBA champion. Dwight Howard has come up

170
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 2: with an idea that I'm curious to get your take on.

171
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:59,720
Speaker 2: He believes that President Trump should make military service mandatory

172
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:05,240
Speaker 2: to teach young Americans' discipline. Now hear me on this.

173
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:10,199
Speaker 2: We live in a society right now where you've got

174
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 2: a frightening number of parents who are just simply abdicating

175
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 2: their responsibilities. They're not raising their kids. And as bad

176
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,200
Speaker 2: as the ones who are just out of the streets

177
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 2: causing mayhem and stealing the Gucci bags so they can,

178
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:28,960
Speaker 2: you know, get some id wonderbread. As bad as those

179
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 2: people are, even the rich people, they're not raising their kids.

180
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:37,480
Speaker 2: A bunch of spoiled little brats. And we live in

181
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 2: a society where you've got kids that are just running wild.

182
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 2: And I like this idea, So Dwight Howard says, and

183
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 2: let me give you some let me give you some background.

184
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 2: This guy NBA champion with the LA Lakers, he played

185
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 2: for the Orlando Magic. He's he's the real deal. He's

186
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 2: the real deal, and he says, and it was just

187
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 2: kind of a random thought here, and I as I was,

188
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 2: somebody sent this to me and I thought, oh wow,

189
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:14,479
Speaker 2: this ties right into what happened in this bar in Indianapolis,

190
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 2: where it's so bad people don't know how to behave.

191
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 2: Even because it used to be like, okay, twenty one

192
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:23,720
Speaker 2: and then maybe twenty five. Now it's at thirty. And

193
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 2: if you don't know how to behave by the time

194
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:29,199
Speaker 2: you're thirty, we're done as a country. But he said this,

195
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,600
Speaker 2: and I'm curious to hear your thoughts on this. He says,

196
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:35,319
Speaker 2: I honestly feel like the president should make one year

197
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:39,319
Speaker 2: of service mandatory for everyone born in America. A lot

198
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,800
Speaker 2: of other countries do it, and I think it would

199
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 2: help with discipline and structure. I'm curious what y'all think

200
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:53,000
Speaker 2: of what y'all think would this help America? That is

201
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 2: a great question. Would it help America? Do you think

202
00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 2: that a year or let's just say two years of

203
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 2: military service would help provide structure for kids that are

204
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 2: growing up without structure? I mean, the Mormons do it right,

205
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 2: They send them out door knocking all over the place.

206
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 2: How long did they have to do that, Dylan, It's

207
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 2: like a year, two years or something. They got to

208
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,520
Speaker 2: wear the little black pants and the white shirt with

209
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 2: the little name tag there. I get the magazine. No,

210
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 2: it's no, they don't do the magazines. That's just what

211
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 2: the Jehovah, the Jhopah's Witness, thank you. Do the Mormons

212
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:33,959
Speaker 2: give you anything?

213
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 4: Maybe the Book of Mormon.

214
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 2: I got to take a pass good reading material. I mean,

215
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,440
Speaker 2: the Jehovah's Witness used to live in a neighborhood where

216
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:45,560
Speaker 2: those folks lived. Did you know that they kind of

217
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:50,080
Speaker 2: they like their headquarters was in Brooklyn, downtown Brooklyn. I

218
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:53,560
Speaker 2: think they moved down. They were the largest property owner

219
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 2: in downtown Brooklyn. The Jehovah's Witness. Yeah, could not go

220
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 2: anywhere on a Saturday without somebody giving. And you have

221
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 2: watched Hour magazine.

222
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 4: There you go.

223
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 2: I'm like, I already gave it the office for crying

224
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:09,840
Speaker 2: out loud worse than the Girl Scout parents want some cookies.

225
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 2: I don't need any tagalogs, But if you got to

226
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 2: watch Tower, I'll take it. So anyway, back to whatever

227
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 2: we were talking about here, I like this idea of

228
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 2: sending your kids not to boot camp, to literal boot camp,

229
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 2: and honestly it could it could actually help the country

230
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:36,160
Speaker 2: become a stronger country. Going back to you got to

231
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 2: go back to World War two and follow me on

232
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 2: this World War two became our greatest generation. And why

233
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 2: did they become the greatest generation. A lot of those

234
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 2: kids that were fighting, they were like in their early

235
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 2: or late teens. We're talking seventeen eighteen, nineteen year olds.

236
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 2: They went in and they served in the military, and

237
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 2: they got that structure in their their lives. They put

238
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 2: it all on the line for their country. And I'm

239
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 2: just curious, ladies and gentlemen, if you think this might

240
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 2: be the solution to the big problem in our country.

241
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 2: We have got not just one, but two generations of

242
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 2: young people who are just wandering, just wandering. Could you

243
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 2: imagine Dylan sergeant dead drill, sergeant deader.

244
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 4: How would you put a hat on that hair? How

245
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 4: would you do that?

246
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 5: No?

247
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 2: No, No, he'd had that buzz cut going. Yeah, he'd

248
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 2: be what a jar head, right, sergeant. I love it.

249
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 2: One guy writing it it says, I think military service

250
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 2: would be better, learn how to defend yourself, shoot and

251
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 2: handle guns properly. The bond and respect for each other

252
00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 2: would go up. I love this idea. Nine oh one

Speaker 4: Crap.

269
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 2: Oh, we could do that, Dylan, we could do like

270
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:09,879
Speaker 2: drills here on the show. I think it's a great idea.

271
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 2: All right, let's go to the phone lines here Brock

272
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:16,159
Speaker 2: in Memphis, Tennessee, starting our day at k o U

273
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,440
Speaker 2: A M. Hey Brock, what's on your mind?

274
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 3: Hey, I'm well into the park the last couple of months.

275
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:25,360
Speaker 2: What's going what's what's that now?

276
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:27,960
Speaker 3: So you've been knocking it out of the park the

277
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:28,960
Speaker 3: last couple of months.

278
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 2: Well, thank you, sir. We try, we try.

279
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:31,840
Speaker 6: Brock.

280
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 2: What's what's going on?

281
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 5: Uh?

282
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 3: You talking about that bar? He's like it's new, but

283
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:41,359
Speaker 3: uh Memphis, like you know, it's sketchy down there around

284
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 3: Firestone and Thomas late at night. And I did a

285
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:49,040
Speaker 3: career on the police department. But like fifteen years ago,

286
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 3: Led had an age list owner. He ran a tight club.

287
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,879
Speaker 3: I mean it was security everywhere. It was a big operation.

288
00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,640
Speaker 3: It was a Green Bay packer guy or something played

289
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 3: for the actor. So the story went back maybe like

290
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 3: back in the seventies or something better club down there,

291
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 3: and he had like twenty six or twenty seven years

292
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:10,120
Speaker 3: old before you could go in.

293
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 2: Really, so this is nothing new.

294
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 3: Right two thousand you know, two thousand three, two thousand

295
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:20,639
Speaker 3: and four or something like that. And then another thing

296
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,920
Speaker 3: I want to take to touch on was a coincidential

297
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 3: irony oye oft all Uh I noticed this decade ago.

298
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:32,119
Speaker 3: But the Somali flag that the sky blue background with

299
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 3: the white star to the middle, it's the same flag

300
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,880
Speaker 3: as old Confederate Bonnie blue flag. So now I guess

301
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 3: people can fly Confederate flag and nobody would know the difference.

302
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 2: You know, true, you know?

303
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 3: So wow?

304
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:49,920

00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:32,680
Speaker 7: And when we would uh? And I just retired six

348
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:36,879
Speaker 7: months ago, And mister start our biggest problem that the

349
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 7: company was when we bring in twenty new employees, if

350
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:45,720
Speaker 7: they were under thirty years old, they didn't have any

351
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:49,639
Speaker 7: work esses, they didn't have any structure, they didn't have

352
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:55,880
Speaker 7: any discipline, and they would literally quit if they were

353
00:21:55,920 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 7: not at the top pay within six months. And us

354
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 7: guys who's been driving for thirty and thirty some years,

355
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:07,359
Speaker 7: who were looking like, what in the world is going

356
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 7: on here? Who has entitled these kids to lease you

357
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:15,239
Speaker 7: so much that they think they're supposed to be at

358
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:19,600
Speaker 7: the top and the beginning they think they're not supposed

359
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:23,720
Speaker 7: to work hard, They're not supposed to earn anything in life.

360
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 7: It's just supposed to be getting to them.

361
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:28,880
Speaker 2: You know, Dave, I wonder where do you think, Where

362
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:33,280
Speaker 2: do you think that mentality is coming from?

363
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:37,200
Speaker 7: All I can say it's got to be society, the

364
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 7: parents raising them that way. These kids, Yeah, parents raising

365
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 7: them that way, No father's in the home, no discipline.

366
00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:54,840
Speaker 7: I mean, it's really totally total lack of respect. They

367
00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:58,280
Speaker 7: don't respect the supervisor, they don't respect your parents, don't

368
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,160
Speaker 7: respect to teaching, they don't I used to coach football,

369
00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:04,639
Speaker 7: that was the coach. I don't I don't understand it,

370
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 7: but they really it needs to change because we're definitely

371
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 7: headed in a bad direction.

372
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:14,160
Speaker 2: You know, it's interesting. I'm sorry, finish your thought. They're Dave.

373
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:18,119
Speaker 7: I got two brothers that were in the military, and

374
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 7: I'm pretty sure a good year, year and a half,

375
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 7: maybe years of military for these young people. Give them

376
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:31,719
Speaker 7: some structure and some learn, learn respect, and give them

377
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:34,159
Speaker 7: some structure and put them on a better path in

378
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,960
Speaker 7: life because they need it bad and the country needs.

379
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 2: You know what we need. We need a battalion of R.

380
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:46,720
Speaker 2: Lee Ermey's that's who we need. Dave, the drill instructor,

381
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:50,240
Speaker 2: remember the d I from Full Metal Jacket. That's that's

382
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,680
Speaker 2: what this generation needs.

383
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:54,200
Speaker 7: They couldn't they couldn't take that.

384
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 3: They could not.

385
00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:58,240
Speaker 7: I had a brother and Air Force, and a brother

386
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,880
Speaker 7: in the Army, and I guarantee my baby brother said

387
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 7: when he went to the army and he sat down

388
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 7: to eat his breakfast. The first time he had a

389
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 7: minute and a half to eat that breakfast a lunch

390
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,120
Speaker 7: of the help, he had to get up and run

391
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:16,639
Speaker 7: out of the of the myth hall. And the next

392
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 7: morning he had that breakfas down in a minute and

393
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:20,479
Speaker 7: a half.

394
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:24,119
Speaker 2: I bet he did. You know, it's interesting that he

395
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,200
Speaker 2: was actually even though he did a phenomenal job in

396
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,359
Speaker 2: the movie, he was actually a former drill instructor in

397
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 2: real life, so he brought a little bit of work

398
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 2: experience to the role.

399
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 7: But we need I'm telling you these young bees to me,

400
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:42,640
Speaker 7: these young people are hitted in the wrong.

401
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:48,200
Speaker 2: Direction, David, I appreciate that. Yeah, I appreciate that, call, sir,

402
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,720
Speaker 2: and thank you for listening. Give us a holler back

403
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 2: at nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.

404
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:58,680
Speaker 2: Let's go to German Shepherd who disagrees with me on

405
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,879
Speaker 2: this idea. Hey, German Shepherd, why do you disagree?

406
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 8: Well, for I got in a little of trouble as

407
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 8: a teenager straight out of high school. My dad said

408
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:12,720
Speaker 8: either going to military or be homeless. And because of

409
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,760
Speaker 8: the trouble, I took my I recruited to court with

410
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:19,399
Speaker 8: me and begged the judge not to put me in

411
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:22,160
Speaker 8: too much trouble. So I went into the Navy for

412
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:25,720
Speaker 8: four years. And let's just say I made e for

413
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 8: twice in four years because of a hard headed person

414
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,159
Speaker 8: that I was. And I would say the thing that

415
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 8: changed me is at age thirty when when God revealed

416
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 8: his holiness to me and my sin nature, and I

417
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 8: surrendered to him, and that's what changed my life into

418
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:50,080
Speaker 8: a direction to where I became a productive American citizen,

419
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 8: you know, without that that desire of selfish do you

420
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:54,399
Speaker 8: know what I'm saying.

421
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:57,840
Speaker 2: But don't you think though that you know, a good

422
00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 2: drill instructor could put the fear of Almighty God in

423
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:02,200
Speaker 2: these little heathens.

424
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:06,480
Speaker 8: He certainly put the fear in me. And I got

425
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 8: in trouble in boot camp a couple of times too.

426
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 8: But it's, uh, you know, consequences certainly do choose our actions,

427
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 8: but it's still in the long run, you know, it.

428
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:20,160
Speaker 6: Doesn't change us.

429
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 8: It just helps us to make good choices, that's for sure.

430
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 8: I'm glad I got in all the trouble I got

431
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 8: into and I and I did get an honorable discharge,

432
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 8: and I'm thankful for that, But it didn't change me.

433
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:35,400
Speaker 8: It just my life was more like can I get

434
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:37,879
Speaker 8: away with it or not? I mean, look at Tim Walt,

435
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,440
Speaker 8: he was in the military, and look at what he's

436
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:42,639
Speaker 8: done and who he is.

437
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:47,120
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, that's a fair assessment. I forgot about tampon. Tim. Yeah,

438
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 2: you're right, you're right, German Shepherd. You've given us something

439
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 2: to think about, and I appreciate you doing that. Nine

440
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:57,640
Speaker 2: oh one two six zero five nine two six. Let's

441
00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:01,159
Speaker 2: go to al in North Carolina. Hi, Hell, what say you?

442
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:02,920
Speaker 6: How are you doing?

443
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:03,200
Speaker 5: Mud?

444
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 2: Well, I'm doing pretty good things for asking well?

445
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 7: Great, Yeah, I love your show, Thank you.

446
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 6: But I was calling in. I just heard you asking

447
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,440
Speaker 6: about where all these people are getting these attitudes from

448
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,679
Speaker 6: these days. And what the problem is is parents do

449
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:19,679
Speaker 6: not raise their children like you already know. What's raising

450
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:23,679
Speaker 6: his children is this TV. They're all sitting watching TV

451
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 6: and it's all these reality shows, all these people acting

452
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:31,200
Speaker 6: like fools, yelling at each other, Jersey Housewives, all these

453
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 6: stupid shows. And this is what these kids are growing

454
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 6: up to believe adults are acting and you're supposed to

455
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,160
Speaker 6: this is the way you're supposed to act. And when

456
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 6: they leave and they go out in public and they're

457
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,680
Speaker 6: on their own, they never had any parents because the

458
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 6: parents are busy on Facebook and Instagram or or gaining

459
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 6: Like I got a wife, her kids got his and

460
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 6: her computers in the living room. They both spend all

461
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:59,160
Speaker 6: night sitting there playing games while their kids run wild.

462
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 3: Really, you're watching.

463
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,720
Speaker 6: The TV, you know, and this is what they grow

464
00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 6: up seeing at social media too, and it's just it's

465
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:11,400
Speaker 6: a poison. It's killing this country. This is why everything's

466
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 6: still outing here because there's no sense or reality anymore.

467
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:20,879
Speaker 2: It's interesting easy, So you know, it's it's interesting you

468
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:22,960
Speaker 2: bring that up, because I'm not sure if it's so

469
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:26,240
Speaker 2: much TV with this generation as it is these smartphones.

470
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 2: You know, they're watching all the TikTok videos. They've got

471
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,800
Speaker 2: the Instagram, and they see in a lot of these cases,

472
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:36,920
Speaker 2: these social media influencers on YouTube, and they they live

473
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:41,000
Speaker 2: these glamorous lifestyles. And you wonder if these kids think

474
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:45,640
Speaker 2: that they should be doing that as well, and I don't.

475
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,120
Speaker 2: I just it really troubles me when I see young

476
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,720
Speaker 2: kids that are already on social media. They're wandering wandering

477
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:55,120
Speaker 2: around with those phones. And you know, when you and

478
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,680
Speaker 2: I know that they've done the studies and they've talked

479
00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:01,000
Speaker 2: about how dangerous it is for kids to have, you know,

480
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:03,920
Speaker 2: exposure to all of those things because their brains are

481
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 2: not fully formed, so they really don't have a way

482
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,760
Speaker 2: to interpret all the data they're getting. And now, as

483
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,880
Speaker 2: a result of it, you've got these smartphones that are

484
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 2: raising these kids instead of moms and dads.

485
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 7: Yes, exactly right.

486
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 6: And when they're not on the smartphone, they're watching these

487
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:25,080
Speaker 6: reality TV shows and it's just another over the top drama.

488
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:28,240
Speaker 6: They think it's called the reality TV show. There's nothing

489
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 6: real about it. It's all scripted, it's all drama, and

490
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 6: everybody thinks everything got to be drama. I'm gonna stick

491
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 6: of drama. You can't just have a nice day anymore.

492
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:40,200
Speaker 6: Everything's got to be over the top.

493
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good point. It's a good point. What

494
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 2: do you think though about about sending the kids to

495
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 2: the military.

496
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,479
Speaker 6: I think that would be one heck of an idea.

497
00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 6: Every other country doesn't And they'll tell you what their

498
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:52,880
Speaker 6: kids will kick.

499
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,080
Speaker 3: Our kids butts there are.

500
00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 2: So you're not you're actually, you're actually very accurate. There.

501
00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:04,480
Speaker 2: There was a study done and there is great concern

502
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:06,960
Speaker 2: that if we had to fight a war that we

503
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 2: would not we would not be able to do that.

504
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 6: No, I know, our last couple of generations, they're nothing

505
00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 6: but mouth. That's all they know how to do is

506
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:20,480
Speaker 6: run their mouth. They don't know how to use their hands.

507
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:22,640
Speaker 9: They don't know how to use their hands.

508
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 6: Just they start running that mouth. He just reached red ass.

509
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 7: Smack them down.

510
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:28,240
Speaker 6: They shut right the hack up man, because they don't

511
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 6: know how to pack it with their hands. They just

512
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:33,239
Speaker 6: know how to run that mouth because that's what they

513
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 6: that's what they learn because they're sitting on the other

514
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 6: side of the screen somewhere watching somebody.

515
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:40,920
Speaker 3: Run that mouth. This is actually true, running that mouth

516
00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 3: and gets you.

517
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 6: I grew up in a digital world.

518
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 3: I grew up.

519
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:46,840
Speaker 6: You go outside, you better be ready to fight. You're

520
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 6: going to run that mouth.

521
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 2: See, I grew up in the eighties. We're pretty tough generation.

522
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 10: I too.

523
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:57,240
Speaker 2: All right, Oh well, you're tougher than I have.

524
00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:58,040
Speaker 11: Al.

525
00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,560
Speaker 2: God bless you, man, and thank you for calling in.

526
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 2: You know, I think Al would make a great drill instructor, Dylan.

527
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, And you know what, I was actually thinking of

528
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:13,760
Speaker 4: Major Pain, Major pain. If I if I had to

529
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:16,479
Speaker 4: go to the military, I would want Major Pain as

530
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 4: my instructor.

531
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 2: He's the guy, He's the guy. What is it? Clint Eastwood?

532
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 2: What was that? There was a movie that that Eastwood

533
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:26,040
Speaker 2: was in and it was sort of a comedy action

534
00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 2: drama kind of was a heartbreak Ridge that may have

535
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 2: been somebody will let us know. Yeah, that was a

536
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 2: great movie. But again you had all these yahoos and

537
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 2: they got themselves straightened out thanks to the military.

538
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 4: I do feel like this is the describing description of

539
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:48,280
Speaker 4: major pain because the delinquent JRTC students, you know, they

540
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:49,080
Speaker 4: got to get in line.

541
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 2: So I like this. I think we're onto something here.

542
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:54,120
Speaker 2: I think so all right, we got to take a break.

583
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:23,720
Speaker 2: who weighed in on our Facebook page. They said, Starns,

584
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:30,800
Speaker 2: that's unconstitutional. Forcing forcing people to join the military as unconstitutional. Actually,

585
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:35,560
Speaker 2: it is entirely constitutional. As a matter of fact, there

586
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,440
Speaker 2: have been a number of times through American history where

587
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 2: the government has used conscription we now call it the draft,

588
00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:47,759
Speaker 2: going all the way back to the Revolutionary.

589
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:50,040
Speaker 11: War, the Civil War, World War.

590
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 2: One and two, Korean War, and Vietnam. As a matter

591
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:57,680
Speaker 2: of fact, the mandatory service ended in the early was

592
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:02,840
Speaker 2: it nineteen seventy three? I believe nineteen seventy three, But

593
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:06,960
Speaker 2: it is in fact constitutional. But do we moved to

594
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:12,000
Speaker 2: an all volunteer military except for the draftees called up

595
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,160
Speaker 2: through the end of seventy two. So that's where we

596
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:16,960
Speaker 2: are now. Dylan, when you turned eighteen, did you have

597
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:18,840
Speaker 2: to register for the draft?

598
00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:19,040
Speaker 4: Oh?

599
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:22,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, you had to register. It's it's still it is

600
00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:26,279
Speaker 2: still the law of the land. Otherwise I would have Yeah,

601
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:28,920
Speaker 2: I would have just inadvertently outed you for not signing

602
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:30,040
Speaker 2: up for the Selective Service.

603
00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:31,400
Speaker 4: I was scared, but I did it.

604
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:33,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, so far, so good. But they do have the

605
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:37,719
Speaker 2: power to call folks up, so I would just say,

606
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,799
Speaker 2: young men, I think the young men of America need this.

607
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:46,760
Speaker 2: Let's go to Mike in clear Lake City, Texas, listening

608
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 2: to us on Patriot Talk nine twenty, wants to talk

609
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:54,000
Speaker 2: about Somalia. Hey, Mike, what you got for us?

610
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:59,320
Speaker 12: Call? Well, I'm following it on Newsmax, all the reporting

611
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,480
Speaker 12: and to make sure videos and a dawned army. Had

612
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:06,360
Speaker 12: he gone to a daycare and found children, the daycare

613
00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:09,759
Speaker 12: would have been, I guess, technically legit and there was

614
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 12: no fraud, so there would be no no one would

615
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,560
Speaker 12: be the wiser is what's going on? And my point

616
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:22,200
Speaker 12: is that's the reason why everybody's upset. But had the

617
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:26,480
Speaker 12: somalis or whatever else what other entity been meeting the

618
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:33,320
Speaker 12: government requirement, their dollars would still be going to that entity.

619
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's correct. As a matter of fact, I'll give

620
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,120
Speaker 2: you an example. I was just curious, so the other

621
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:43,520
Speaker 2: night I was just googled to see how many how

622
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 2: many childcare centers in Tennessee were actually provided federal tax dollars,

623
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,000
Speaker 2: And I can tell you just in the Memphis area alone,

624
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 2: over three hundred of those facilities exist. Is their fraud, Well,

625
00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 2: we don't know. But to your point, I mean, if

626
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:03,239
Speaker 2: they're providing a service, but when you've got what is it.

627
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:06,239
Speaker 2: They called it the they misspelled learning, they called it

628
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:08,960
Speaker 2: the learing center, I'm not sure I want my kid

629
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:10,400
Speaker 2: going to a learing center.

630
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:17,680
Speaker 12: Well, but my point is you've got unelected bureaucrats working

631
00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:24,719
Speaker 12: in various government agencies, departments, bureaucracy funneling money to people, places,

632
00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:29,120
Speaker 12: and things that they meet minimum government requirement. But that

633
00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:33,120
Speaker 12: doesn't mean they're justified in receiving taxpayer dollars. And to me,

634
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:37,160
Speaker 12: that's like a cancer eating in America from the inside,

635
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:39,960
Speaker 12: which is probably why we're they're almost thirty seven trillion

636
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:43,319
Speaker 12: in dead it's not dead, it's money not going to

637
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:44,400
Speaker 12: where it should be going.

638
00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:48,760
Speaker 2: There was a report out earlier today seventy billion dollars

639
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:52,240
Speaker 2: in fraud just in California alone. I mean, so everything

640
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:55,400
Speaker 2: else is looking like peanuts. But to your point, yes,

641
00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:59,080
Speaker 2: and I think you're right in the way you're framing

642
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:03,080
Speaker 2: the argument here. But look, the reality is we're getting

643
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:04,840
Speaker 2: to a point and I don't know if you guys

644
00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:09,240
Speaker 2: since this, we're getting to the end of the road

645
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:11,560
Speaker 2: on all of this. And what I mean by that

646
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:16,239
Speaker 2: is we are getting very We're getting dangerously close to

647
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:20,879
Speaker 2: people taking to the streets. I'm talking law abiding taxpayers

648
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:25,319
Speaker 2: taking to the streets because many of them realize, wait

649
00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:28,320
Speaker 2: a second, I can't afford to put my kid in childcare.

650
00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:31,280
Speaker 2: I'm working two jobs, and you're telling me my tax

651
00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:35,640
Speaker 2: money is going into these childcare centers in Minnesota and

652
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:40,320
Speaker 2: Ohio and other communities. You're telling me that my tax

653
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:43,560
Speaker 2: money is being used to take care of the Somalian children.

654
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:47,479
Speaker 2: Uh uh no, no, not at all. Those days are over.

655
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:50,480
Speaker 2: So that's where I think we're going with all of this.

656
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 2: It could be very soon that we see people starting

657
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,200
Speaker 2: to take to the streets and at that point, you

658
00:38:56,560 --> 00:39:01,359
Speaker 2: have a de facto revolution on your hands. So the administration,

659
00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:04,960
Speaker 2: they better take all this seriously. And let me just

660
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,760
Speaker 2: say this about our justice department. Not a single person

661
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:10,759
Speaker 2: has been arrested, nobody's been put on trial, nobody's been

662
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 2: thrown in jail, and it's been over a year. So

663
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:17,480
Speaker 2: I'm not sure what they're waiting on, but this is

664
00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:20,560
Speaker 2: going to spiral if they are not careful. So we

665
00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:24,480
Speaker 2: need to start seeing some big name people hauled into

666
00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:26,920
Speaker 2: jail as a result of all of this. All right,

667
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:29,279
Speaker 2: I gotta run here, folks. Hour two of the Big

668

Speaker 2: happens to me all the time, and I don't know.

683
00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:53,160
Speaker 2: I probably shouldn't have done this, but I got a

684
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:55,319
Speaker 2: text from somebody and they said, this is my new

685

Speaker 2: number with the smiley face emoji with the little cheeks,

686

Speaker 2: the little red and I'm like, who is this?

687
00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:06,560
Speaker 4: They didn't say their name, they just said I got

688
00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:07,240
Speaker 4: a new number.

689
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:10,360
Speaker 2: Says if this is my new number with the smiley

690
00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:14,799
Speaker 2: face emoji. So I'm trying to be like because sometimes,

Speaker 2: you know people, I get a lot of messages from people.

692
00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:21,680

00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,040
Speaker 4: You need to like channel one of your characters.

710
00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:13,800
Speaker 2: Your great grandmother. I'll never forget this. It's a family legend.

711
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:17,279
Speaker 2: One day the phone rang when they lived. My grandparents

712
00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:20,480
Speaker 2: lived in beautiful white Haven, which is a lovely suburb

713
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:23,799
Speaker 2: of Memphis. And the phone rang one day. And my

714
00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:26,800
Speaker 2: grandmother is very she's kind of like a She looked

715
00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:30,920
Speaker 2: just like Betty White back in the day, and she

716
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:34,280
Speaker 2: was very elegant and just. But she was very Southern

717
00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:38,239
Speaker 2: as well. But she was a steel magnolia. So she

718
00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:40,360
Speaker 2: was a lot of fun. But you didn't want to

719
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:40,920
Speaker 2: cross me.

720
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:41,080
Speaker 13: Ma.

721
00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:45,480
Speaker 2: Yes, she used to really get on her nerves. Did

722
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:45,960
Speaker 2: you know that.

723
00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:48,480
Speaker 4: I did not know this. I was probably not. I

724
00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:49,560
Speaker 4: don't remember anything.

725
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:51,920
Speaker 2: You were a tiny little fellow, but you would always

726
00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:53,759
Speaker 2: eat all the candy out of the candy.

727
00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:59,000
Speaker 4: Yeah. I do like candy, so sorry.

728
00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:03,920
Speaker 2: Anyway, she the phone rang one day and she answered

729
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:06,000
Speaker 2: the phone, and she must have been on that phone

730
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:08,600
Speaker 2: forty five minutes and it turned out to be the

731
00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 2: wrong number. Somebody called and she had such a nice conversation.

732
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:17,720
Speaker 4: I love that. That would never happen to my generation.

733
00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:19,920
Speaker 4: We would not even pick up the phone. Probably.

734
00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:22,160
Speaker 2: No, that's the right, exactly, ess.

735
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:25,840
Speaker 4: I love that. So make a new friend.

736
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:27,560
Speaker 2: Make a new friend. So I should come up with

737
00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:31,160
Speaker 2: a because now you know, this could be like a liberal.

738
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:34,600
Speaker 2: I mean, this could be like an Antifa person. And

739
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:38,880
Speaker 2: is is a but Isabella, No, Isabella doesn't sound like

740
00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:42,600
Speaker 2: a an Antifa person. It's a nice name, all right.

741
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:44,080
Speaker 2: I've got to figure out what to do now, because

742
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,520
Speaker 2: now she'll what she'll do is she'll do what I did,

743
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:50,799
Speaker 2: which is google the phone number. M Yeah, it came

744
00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:56,520
Speaker 2: up with a recovery a recovery center for Yeah, maybe

745
00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:58,279
Speaker 2: she needs a ride. I don't know.

746
00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:01,080
Speaker 4: You should ask what what she needs? What's up?

747
00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:05,279
Speaker 2: I can't do that, Yeah, I can't do it. I

748
00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:08,000
Speaker 2: feel bad. I mean, I mean, if she's coming out

749
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:09,719
Speaker 2: of rehabit, I don't want to send her right back in.

750
00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:14,399
Speaker 2: That would be terrible. I'm having flashbacks of talking about

751
00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:15,600
Speaker 2: Santa Claus being dead.

752
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:22,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, at the diners, and then a hundred over the radio,

753
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:24,040
Speaker 4: just many, many more.

754
00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:26,239
Speaker 2: I should probably explain. A couple of weeks ago, we

755
00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:29,400
Speaker 2: took the staff out for breakfast. A great diner is

756
00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:32,319
Speaker 2: called Sunrise here in Memphis. If you were ever in

757
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:34,920
Speaker 2: our city, which you should be now that it's safe,

758
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:37,799
Speaker 2: you should go and eat there. It's amazing food. We're

759
00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:40,880
Speaker 2: having a conversation. And what were we talking about? Santa Claus.

760
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:43,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, somehow he ended up on Santa Claus.

761
00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:46,600
Speaker 2: And I just casually said, and again it's a packed place,

762
00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:50,520
Speaker 2: and I just I said, sorry, kid, Santa Claus is dead.

763
00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:55,080
Speaker 2: And this woman shoots me this evil eye. Look I

764
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:59,239
Speaker 2: was getting the steinki. Yeah, and I didn't. And then

765
00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:02,400
Speaker 2: it's didn't catch on until you know, one of the

766
00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:03,960
Speaker 2: one of the people in our crew. I think it

767
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:08,120
Speaker 2: was a lovely Miss Cheryl said, or Miss Becky said, Todd,

768
00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:11,799
Speaker 2: there are children, don't say Sam's dead.

769
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:15,320
Speaker 4: To be fair, you were yelling across the table because

770
00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:17,840
Speaker 4: again there was a lot of people, so you needed

771
00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:20,200
Speaker 4: to say something loudly. And that's just you know.

772
00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:23,279
Speaker 2: It was noisy, and you know what, kids, sometimes you

773
00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:26,759
Speaker 2: got to buck up. It's time for it's time for

774
00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:28,160
Speaker 2: to be an adult.

775
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:31,000
Speaker 4: Scares. You need to know the truth.

776
00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:36,000
Speaker 2: Sometimes life is going to let you down, just like

777
00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:44,200
Speaker 2: Santa Claus ho ho ho. Anyway, I'll have to say sorry, Isabelle,

778
00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:48,239
Speaker 2: you got the wrong number. All right, Uh, let's go

779
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:51,239
Speaker 2: to the phones real quick. Campy's been holding on w

00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:56,400
Speaker 2: h KP are great affiliate in Hendersonville, North Carolina. Canthy

781
00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:57,200
Speaker 2: what's going on?

782
00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:02,320
Speaker 14: Well, Codd, I heard your comments about the draft before

783
00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:05,719
Speaker 14: the break, and I just wanted to comment. You said

784
00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:09,000
Speaker 14: it stopped in nineteen seventy two, which probably did at

785
00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:13,680
Speaker 14: that point. However, I'm hoping I'm gonna let you know

786
00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:17,360
Speaker 14: that all mails between the ages of eighteen and twenty

787
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:22,200
Speaker 14: five the US citizens and immigrants are required to register

788
00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:26,319
Speaker 14: with the Secrets Selective Service Department.

789
00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:27,799
Speaker 7: It's still a requirement.

790
00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:29,960
Speaker 14: I mean, they're not drafting them in the disservice, but

791
00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:31,440
Speaker 14: you have to register.

792
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:36,640
Speaker 2: Kathy, you are correct, and we did mention that Dylan,

793
00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 2: who is in his I guess you're in your mid

794
00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:41,400
Speaker 2: twenties now or late twenties.

795
00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:43,359
Speaker 4: Twenty six, so all right, you're.

796
00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:45,920
Speaker 2: Still in the mid twenties, yeah, Kathy. He I had

797
00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:48,240
Speaker 2: asked him if he had if he had registered, because

798
00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:51,520
Speaker 2: you know you're still required under law to do that, right.

799
00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:51,759
Speaker 11: I didn't.

800
00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:53,520
Speaker 14: I'm sorry I didn't hear him say that. I wouldn't

801
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:54,480
Speaker 14: have called in if I had.

802
00:46:55,080 --> 00:46:58,360
Speaker 2: Well, Kathy, I'm glad you did call in. It's always good.

803
00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:02,040
Speaker 2: You never know, I may end up forgetting something one day,

804
00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:04,839
Speaker 2: and it's always good for you to have my back.

805
00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:05,919
Speaker 2: I appreciate that.

806
00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:09,799
Speaker 7: Okay, all right, thank you for.

807
00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:14,600
Speaker 2: Taking my well, you're so welcome. Now, well, thank you, Kathy.

808
00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:18,200
Speaker 2: All right, great lady, right there, Kathy from Hendersonville. What

809
00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:21,040
Speaker 2: a fun town. By the way, good folks there. Nine

810
00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:23,560
Speaker 2: oh one two six zero five nine two six hour

811
00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:27,759
Speaker 2: telephone number. That's nine oh one two six zero five

812
00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:32,880
Speaker 2: nine two six. Congressman Chip Roy says we got a

813
00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:35,840
Speaker 2: big problem in the country and he is now calling

814
00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:41,800
Speaker 2: for an introducing legislation that would pause all immigration into

815
00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:45,560
Speaker 2: the United States of America, including our H one B

816
00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:48,319
Speaker 2: visa program. Cut number one place.

817
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,560
Speaker 15: Empower the American people to do what they do best,

818
00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:53,719
Speaker 15: and we've got to pause immigration. I introduced a bill

819
00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:56,560
Speaker 15: a pause immigration because we've got to stop this massive

820
00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:59,920
Speaker 15: abuse of our system using H one b's, using diversity visas.

821
00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:03,600
Speaker 15: President Trump is exactly right to have frozen the diversity pieces,

822
00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:06,560
Speaker 15: to have stopped that, to freeze the flow from countries

823
00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:09,440
Speaker 15: of concern. Remember that in nineteen twenty, when we had

824
00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:11,440
Speaker 15: a high percentage of people that were for and born,

825
00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:15,400
Speaker 15: we froze immigration for forty years and our country vanquished.

826
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:18,479
Speaker 15: You know, the Ni Nazis in Germany freed the world.

827
00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:20,680
Speaker 15: We did great things in those forty years. We can

828
00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:23,640
Speaker 15: do it again. That's why I introduced legislation to pause immigration.

829
00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:25,680
Speaker 15: The President's right to do that, and I'm supporting him

830
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:26,560
Speaker 15: in that effort.

831
00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:26,600
Speaker 4: All right.

832
00:48:26,840 --> 00:48:28,879
Speaker 2: I think this is a brilliant idea. I was talking

833
00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:32,640
Speaker 2: to Congressman David Kustov earlier today and he actually backs

834
00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:36,279
Speaker 2: this as well. So look, here's here's where we are

835
00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:39,560
Speaker 2: in the country right now, and it is just I

836
00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:44,360
Speaker 2: just thank God for Donald Trump every single day because

837
00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:48,399
Speaker 2: President Trump has just torn back the covers and we're

838
00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:52,359
Speaker 2: getting to see just how far gone the country has been.

839
00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:55,800
Speaker 2: I mean, it is terrible, just terrible what has happened.

840
00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:59,760
Speaker 2: The tens of millions of ilegals, the billions and billions

841
00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:02,600
Speaker 2: in it. It may bee trillions of dollars in fraud,

842
00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:07,040
Speaker 2: the elections that have been stolen, and we're getting all

843
00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:11,160
Speaker 2: the evidence now of all of this. Well, the Supreme

844
00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:14,680
Speaker 2: Court issued a ruling, I believe this was last week,

845
00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:18,279
Speaker 2: and the Supreme Court said, hey, look, we're just you

846
00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:22,080
Speaker 2: cannot President Trump cannot send in the National Guard to

847
00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:24,560
Speaker 2: these cities in Illinois. And a lot of people thought

848
00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:29,480
Speaker 2: at the time, Okay, that's that's insane. But if you

849
00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:33,760
Speaker 2: actually read what the Supreme Court ruled, it gives President

850
00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:37,759
Speaker 2: Trump the back door opportunity to send in the military,

851
00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:44,839
Speaker 2: the US military into Illinois and specifically Chicago. And I'm

852
00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:46,840
Speaker 2: just going to throw this out there everybody, and I

853
00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:50,960
Speaker 2: don't want this is not to be overly anxious or

854
00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:55,320
Speaker 2: be overly alarmed about things, but we are in dire

855
00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:59,799
Speaker 2: We are in a dire situation right now in this country.

856
00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:03,120
Speaker 2: When you look at the seventy billion dollars in fraud

857
00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:07,320
Speaker 2: in California and the nine billion dollars in Minnesota that

858
00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:11,120
Speaker 2: we know about whatever the dollar amounts are in places

859
00:50:11,160 --> 00:50:17,920
Speaker 2: like Maine and also in Ohio, the numbers of illegals

860
00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:21,760
Speaker 2: that are still still wandering around, and I do wonder

861
00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:25,480
Speaker 2: if we do need to invoke the Insurrection Act and

862
00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:28,680
Speaker 2: that's what the Supreme Court is giving President Trump the

863
00:50:28,719 --> 00:50:34,759
Speaker 2: backdoor opportunity to do. Invoke the Insurrection Act, declare martial law,

864
00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:38,480
Speaker 2: send in the military, and put a stop to all

865
00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:42,919
Speaker 2: of this. In less than a month, round everybody up

866
00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:47,160
Speaker 2: and ship them back to wherever they came from. But

867
00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:50,359
Speaker 2: I'm telling you the H one B VISA program, that

868
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:53,920
Speaker 2: thing's got to come to an immediate halt because I

869
00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:57,600
Speaker 2: know know about you, but I know plenty of young people.

870
00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:00,000
Speaker 2: I know plenty of old people who would be great

871
00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:06,520
Speaker 2: marketing marketing marketing executives replace those like FedEx. So I

872
00:51:06,600 --> 00:51:08,759
Speaker 2: wonder why FedEx is going all the way over to

873
00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:14,240
Speaker 2: India to hire a marketing person. Why is that? Something

874
00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:17,120
Speaker 2: doesn't make sense about all of that. Anyway, here's more

875
00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:21,040
Speaker 2: of Chip Roy from Texas cut too.

876
00:51:21,239 --> 00:51:23,839
Speaker 15: Certainly not I mean, he's certainly supportive of whatever they're doing.

877
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:25,120
Speaker 15: And this is one of the other things that we

878
00:51:25,120 --> 00:51:27,960
Speaker 15: need to address, is the extent to which members of

879
00:51:28,040 --> 00:51:30,680
Speaker 15: Congress find themselves getting wealthy while they're in Congress. In

880
00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:34,319
Speaker 15: this case, it appears by being completely in bed with

881
00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:36,640
Speaker 15: all of the fraudulent activity that's going on in Minnesota.

882
00:51:36,680 --> 00:51:39,120
Speaker 15: Of course, we should investigate this, of course we look

883
00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:42,240
Speaker 15: into what they're scrubbing from their website. I think we've

884
00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:44,280
Speaker 15: got to explore this as far as we can, including

885
00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:48,239
Speaker 15: potentially looking into denaturalizing and removing a lot Omar if

886
00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:51,040
Speaker 15: she's violated our laws. And by the way, we should

887
00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:53,520
Speaker 15: also banstock trading on members of Congress, since we're talking

888
00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:55,040
Speaker 15: about the wealth of Congress, and I have a bill

889
00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:56,680
Speaker 15: to do that, and I hope we will do that

890
00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:59,560
Speaker 15: next year. Mike Johnson, the speakers working with us to

891
00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:02,040
Speaker 15: do that. We've got to stop all of this flow

892
00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:05,480
Speaker 15: of dollars that is corrupting our system, empower the American

893
00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:07,719
Speaker 15: people to do what they do best. And we've got

894
00:52:07,719 --> 00:52:10,720
Speaker 15: to pause immigration. I introduced a bill to pause immigrate.

895
00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:15,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, you got to, And he's absolutely right here. Look,

896
00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:20,279
Speaker 2: do you realize in Minnesota they allow one person, the

897
00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:24,080
Speaker 2: Democrats in Minnesota allow one person to vouch for eight

898
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:29,960
Speaker 2: migrant voters. Do you understand what happened in Minnesota and

899
00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:32,920
Speaker 2: what is happening in Minnesota right now? This is I mean,

900
00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:38,640
Speaker 2: Minnesota was once a very red state, not anymore, not anymore.

901
00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:39,239
Speaker 3: So.

902
00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:45,520
Speaker 2: Look, I think President Trump, and this may end up happening,

903
00:52:45,640 --> 00:52:47,400
Speaker 2: is that the President will have to send in the

904
00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:50,600
Speaker 2: military to put a stop to this, because we're looking

905
00:52:50,680 --> 00:52:53,680
Speaker 2: at an uprising around the nation. I mean, that's what

906
00:52:53,760 --> 00:52:56,120
Speaker 2: this is. It's an uprising. Got to take a break here,

907
00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:58,879
Speaker 2: of folks. Nine oh one two six zero five, nine

908
00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:02,480
Speaker 2: two six. That's nine one two six zero five, nine

909
00:53:02,480 --> 00:53:14,640
Speaker 2: two six. We'll be right back. You know, a lot

910
00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:19,960
Speaker 2: of people have been perplexed. My Marjorie Taylor Greene, the

911
00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:27,439
Speaker 2: Republican congress gal from Georgia, Northwest Georgia, and MTG has

912
00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:31,480
Speaker 2: gone off the reservation. Just did a long interview with

913
00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:37,239
Speaker 2: the New York New York Slimes and she suggested, and

914
00:53:37,800 --> 00:53:40,080
Speaker 2: more of this is leak at is very long piece.

915
00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:47,240
Speaker 2: It was published yesterday, and MTG says that President Trump

916
00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:51,719
Speaker 2: is not a Christian, does not have any faith, as

917
00:53:51,760 --> 00:53:54,520
Speaker 2: the exact quote which implies that he is not a

918
00:53:54,640 --> 00:54:05,520
Speaker 2: believer in Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. She said

919
00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:12,000
Speaker 2: quote that President Trump's eulogy for the late Charlie Kirk

920
00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:14,120
Speaker 2: in September proved to her that he does not have

921
00:54:14,160 --> 00:54:17,400
Speaker 2: any faith, and that her decision to leave Congress was

922
00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:24,040
Speaker 2: in part because of her faith based pivot. Green said,

923
00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:28,320
Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk's assassination moved her to reconsider her own Christian

924
00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:32,760
Speaker 2: faith and convinced her she was contributing to a toxic

925
00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:37,120
Speaker 2: political culture, which, by the way, let me stop you

926
00:54:37,160 --> 00:54:40,640
Speaker 2: and you Georgia listeners will know the name Eric Erickson,

927
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:46,799
Speaker 2: who is clearly never a Trump guy, and he's very

928
00:54:46,840 --> 00:54:50,120
Speaker 2: excited about all of this, this potential change in MTG.

929
00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:54,280
Speaker 2: So here's what MTG said. After Charlie died, I realized

930
00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:57,240
Speaker 2: that I'm part of this toxic culture. I really started

931
00:54:57,239 --> 00:55:00,520
Speaker 2: looking at my faith. I wanted to be more like Christ.

932
00:55:01,640 --> 00:55:07,120
Speaker 2: Was that before or after the Shenanigans with the gymnast

933
00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:17,640
Speaker 2: just asking is she going back to her husband? Trump,

934
00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:21,200
Speaker 2: who prompted concern among some Christian supporters last summer for

935
00:55:21,280 --> 00:55:25,520
Speaker 2: appearing to suggest he could earn his salvation by inking

936
00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:29,880
Speaker 2: peace deals, praised Kirk during his memorial in Glendale, Arizona

937
00:55:29,960 --> 00:55:34,520
Speaker 2: as a missionary with a noble spirit and a great,

938
00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:38,080
Speaker 2: great purpose. But Trump admitted that he does not yet

939
00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:44,440
Speaker 2: exhibit the grace toward his enemies that Kirk did. Quote

940
00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:46,799
Speaker 2: he did not hate his opponents, he wanted the best

941
00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:49,600
Speaker 2: for them. Trump said, That's where I disagreed with Charlie,

942
00:55:49,840 --> 00:55:52,040
Speaker 2: I hate my opponent, and I don't want the best

943
00:55:52,080 --> 00:55:58,120
Speaker 2: for them. May I just say something about that. I

944
00:55:58,160 --> 00:56:02,840
Speaker 2: think Trump was being very honest and very open, and

945
00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:06,440
Speaker 2: I do not know the spiritual condition of President Trump.

946
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:09,640
Speaker 2: I have my thoughts and I'm going to keep those

947
00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:15,640
Speaker 2: to myself because it's not my business. But my business

948
00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:18,759
Speaker 2: is to pray for our president and to set a

949
00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:21,640
Speaker 2: good example whenever I had the opportunity to be in

950
00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:28,160
Speaker 2: his presence. I've seen many people, and it's it's hard

951
00:56:28,760 --> 00:56:35,440
Speaker 2: not to wonder if MTG is weaponizing her faith, whatever

952
00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:40,799
Speaker 2: faith that might be, to smear President Trump. I think

953
00:56:40,840 --> 00:56:45,160
Speaker 2: what this woman is doing right now is appalling and

954
00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:51,200
Speaker 2: it is a great betrayal. But that's just me, Green,

955
00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:55,480
Speaker 2: said post Kerk. She grew weary of Trump's approach to politics.

956
00:56:56,120 --> 00:56:58,439
Speaker 2: Our side has been trained this is a quote. Our

957
00:56:58,520 --> 00:57:01,560
Speaker 2: side has been trained by Donald Trump to never apologize

958
00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:04,680
Speaker 2: and to never admit when you're wrong. You just keep

959
00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:07,720
Speaker 2: pummeling your enemies no matter what, and as a Christian,

960
00:57:07,800 --> 00:57:11,000
Speaker 2: I don't believe in doing that. I agree with Erica Kirk,

961
00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:13,839
Speaker 2: who did the hardest thing possible and set it out

962
00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:20,520
Speaker 2: loud with great fanfare. They're at the memorial service with

963
00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:26,160
Speaker 2: the pyrotechnics and all the jewelry and all the trappings,

964
00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:35,080
Speaker 2: and it was a very emotional moment. Green struck a

965
00:57:35,120 --> 00:57:38,600
Speaker 2: tone of disillusionment in her resignation statement. By the way,

966
00:57:38,640 --> 00:57:42,640
Speaker 2: she's leaving Congress, signing the President's attacks and his potential

967
00:57:42,680 --> 00:57:47,040
Speaker 2: support for her primary challenger as key reasons for her decision.

968
00:57:49,800 --> 00:57:52,400
Speaker 2: I find this all fascinating because up until now I

969
00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:56,920
Speaker 2: had not heard of MTG being open about her faith,

970
00:57:56,920 --> 00:57:59,720
Speaker 2: and I'm glad she is. And again, I don't question

971
00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:04,840
Speaker 2: her faith. That's not my place. That's your spiritual condition

972
00:58:04,960 --> 00:58:10,360
Speaker 2: is between you and God. Ladies and gentlemen. All right,

973
00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:13,680
Speaker 2: nine oh one two six zero five nine two six, No,

974
00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:16,240
Speaker 2: I don't think she's getting invited back tomorrow. Algo, Dylan,

975
00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:31,920
Speaker 2: I really know we'll be right back. So elon Musk

976
00:58:32,560 --> 00:58:37,280
Speaker 2: sharing this bombshell report. It turns out Minnesota process nearly

977
00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:42,720
Speaker 2: three hundred thousand online voter registration forms with zero proof

978
00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:48,760
Speaker 2: of the citizenship. Minnesota only mandates a migrant claim they

979
00:58:48,880 --> 00:58:54,120
Speaker 2: are citizens without proving it. This is terrible, they're saying,

980
00:58:54,160 --> 00:58:58,800
Speaker 2: this is just ginormous. Minnesota also lets one person vouch

981
00:58:58,920 --> 00:59:03,680
Speaker 2: for eight mon migrant voters eligibility to vote without them

982
00:59:03,680 --> 00:59:09,680
Speaker 2: having to prove it. This is insane, insane. Welcome back, everybody.

983
00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:12,040
Speaker 2: Let's go right away to the Patriot Mobile news maker

984
00:59:12,040 --> 00:59:14,520
Speaker 2: line s heal it or our good friend, Republican strategist

985
00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:20,200
Speaker 2: Josh Jones. Josh, I have to tell you that we

986
00:59:20,320 --> 00:59:23,000
Speaker 2: followed you know. You know how it is you follow

987
00:59:23,040 --> 00:59:26,360
Speaker 2: somebody on social then their family follows, and so I've

988
00:59:26,360 --> 00:59:30,760
Speaker 2: been following the Josh Jones family, you know, saga for Christmas.

989
00:59:31,280 --> 00:59:33,360
Speaker 2: You guys had one heck of a holiday down there

990
00:59:33,400 --> 00:59:34,400
Speaker 2: in Virginia.

991
00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:39,520
Speaker 16: Yes, yeah, we had multiple Christmases because they have Dad's

992
00:59:39,520 --> 00:59:41,480
Speaker 16: side of the family and the momside the family, and

993
00:59:41,480 --> 00:59:45,280
Speaker 16: then our direct family. So I'm sure you were privy

994
00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:49,200
Speaker 16: to a lot of different photos from Christmas back home.

995
00:59:49,640 --> 00:59:54,960
Speaker 2: So this is fascinating. Because Dylan turned your microphone on here, Josh,

996
00:59:55,040 --> 00:59:57,800
Speaker 2: I noticed that you guys all dress alike for Christmas.

997
00:59:58,920 --> 01:00:01,680
Speaker 16: Apparently was the first for me. We had never done

998
01:00:01,720 --> 01:00:04,080
Speaker 16: that before. It wasn't my idea. I do have to say,

999
01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:06,080
Speaker 16: I mean I went along with it.

1000
01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:06,520
Speaker 2: We don't.

1001
01:00:06,640 --> 01:00:07,520
Speaker 16: Yeah, this year, we.

1002
01:00:07,480 --> 01:00:09,840
Speaker 2: Did, I do, Dylan, I had to work. I missed

1003
01:00:09,880 --> 01:00:11,640
Speaker 2: our family Christmas. Did we do that?

1004
01:00:12,520 --> 01:00:14,479
Speaker 4: Uh? No, we did not do that this year.

1005
01:00:14,720 --> 01:00:16,400
Speaker 2: But everybody was clothed.

1006
01:00:16,520 --> 01:00:17,480
Speaker 4: Everyone had clothes on.

1007
01:00:17,520 --> 01:00:18,920
Speaker 2: All right, that's a good step forward.

1008
01:00:19,040 --> 01:00:21,840
Speaker 4: It was warm here, so short sleeves.

1009
01:00:22,320 --> 01:00:25,080
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it was super hot. Now tell me you

1010
01:00:25,120 --> 01:00:28,040
Speaker 2: were I didn't realize you were a published author either.

1011
01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:34,400
Speaker 16: Josh Well, I'm not, at least not yet. My mom

1012
01:00:34,520 --> 01:00:36,760
Speaker 16: got me this Christmas gift. I don't know what the

1013
01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:39,800
Speaker 16: company is, but apparently you can give them like a photo,

1014
01:00:40,040 --> 01:00:42,200
Speaker 16: and then I can give them a little bit of

1015
01:00:42,200 --> 01:00:44,880
Speaker 16: background on the person and they write a whole AI

1016
01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:49,920
Speaker 16: generated book about you. I printed out hard copy. I like,

1017
01:00:50,040 --> 01:00:52,200
Speaker 16: you know, all the bells and whistles, and it's basically

1018
01:00:52,240 --> 01:00:54,800
Speaker 16: like a real book. So I opened that up on

1019
01:00:54,880 --> 01:00:57,040
Speaker 16: Christmas morning from my mom. I haven't read it yet,

1020
01:00:57,040 --> 01:00:59,920
Speaker 16: but I guess I dudo published authored.

1021
01:01:00,360 --> 01:01:03,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, congratulations. What's the name of the book. Do we

1022
01:01:03,320 --> 01:01:04,160
Speaker 2: have a name for it?

1023
01:01:05,480 --> 01:01:08,000
Speaker 16: I got it right here, Actually, I says the Art

1024
01:01:08,040 --> 01:01:11,640
Speaker 16: of Political Espionage inside Joshua Jones's Playbook.

1025
01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:15,920
Speaker 2: Oh I like that, all right, very good. Well, you

1026
01:01:16,320 --> 01:01:18,400
Speaker 2: could make a lot of money selling that book.

1027
01:01:18,960 --> 01:01:22,479
Speaker 16: Apparently, I've hear my grandma whenever she came over later

1028
01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:24,640
Speaker 16: that later in the day on Christmas Day, just like,

1029
01:01:24,760 --> 01:01:26,080
Speaker 16: you know, hang out with us for a little bit.

1030
01:01:26,160 --> 01:01:27,480
Speaker 16: She saw the book and start reading through it. I

1031
01:01:27,520 --> 01:01:28,200
Speaker 16: haven't even read it.

1032
01:01:30,800 --> 01:01:37,960
Speaker 2: That's brilliant, Josh, big, big scandal brewing in Minnesota now Ohio.

1033
01:01:38,800 --> 01:01:43,800
Speaker 2: This is insane, the level of fraud that we're seeing

1034
01:01:43,920 --> 01:01:45,400
Speaker 2: in this childcare thing.

1035
01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:50,040
Speaker 16: Yeah, no, it's absolutely insane. And it goes back to

1036
01:01:50,360 --> 01:01:52,720
Speaker 16: a lot well, I say a lot, a good handful

1037
01:01:52,760 --> 01:01:56,080
Speaker 16: of Republicans. We're saying during all this COVID stimulus spending

1038
01:01:56,720 --> 01:01:59,120
Speaker 16: back in twenty twenty, twenty twenty one, of all the

1039
01:01:59,160 --> 01:02:02,080
Speaker 16: fraud that's gonna come along with that, and then years later,

1040
01:02:02,160 --> 01:02:05,960
Speaker 16: here we are, I'm covering literally billions in fraud, you know,

1041
01:02:06,000 --> 01:02:08,439
Speaker 16: in Minnesota, Ohio, and I'm sure other places as well.

1042
01:02:08,520 --> 01:02:11,840
Speaker 16: So the huge issue and frequly a huge insult to the.

1043
01:02:11,800 --> 01:02:12,720
Speaker 3: Ameria tacks there.

1044
01:02:13,160 --> 01:02:16,080
Speaker 2: You know, I do wonder, and again we're still months

1045
01:02:16,080 --> 01:02:19,440
Speaker 2: away from the midterms, but this level of fraud, and

1046
01:02:20,320 --> 01:02:24,080
Speaker 2: I know people here in Tennessee that are angry over this,

1047
01:02:24,360 --> 01:02:27,800
Speaker 2: and because you know, they're being denied the same resources

1048
01:02:28,080 --> 01:02:32,120
Speaker 2: that are literally being lavished upon these migrants.

1049
01:02:33,280 --> 01:02:35,760
Speaker 16: Yeah, no, I mean I hope it becomes a bigger

1050
01:02:35,760 --> 01:02:37,800
Speaker 16: issue in the midterms and that Republicans use it as

1051
01:02:37,840 --> 01:02:40,160
Speaker 16: a messaging point because it is a real issue. It's

1052
01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:44,480
Speaker 16: something that they estimated. We'll see what the investigation comes

1053
01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:47,680
Speaker 16: out with. But it's in Minnesota alone, they sold the

1054
01:02:47,720 --> 01:02:52,160
Speaker 16: equivalent of the GDP of the country of Somalia. So

1055
01:02:52,240 --> 01:02:54,120
Speaker 16: this is no small amount of money that we're talking about.

1056
01:02:54,160 --> 01:02:56,919
Speaker 16: And to your point, I mean, the primary issue heading

1057
01:02:56,960 --> 01:02:59,560
Speaker 16: into the mid terms is affordability and the cost of

1058
01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:03,000
Speaker 16: living American still life served tax stars are quite literally

1059
01:03:03,040 --> 01:03:05,880
Speaker 16: being stolen from them. That will be a motivator of

1060
01:03:05,880 --> 01:03:07,960
Speaker 16: the voters out to the polls, and we should use that.

1061
01:03:09,000 --> 01:03:13,400
Speaker 2: I'm looking at your home state, the Commonwealth of Virginia,

1062
01:03:13,680 --> 01:03:17,320
Speaker 2: and you've got a Democrat that's about to take office,

1063
01:03:17,400 --> 01:03:21,680
Speaker 2: Governor elect, Abigail Spanberger, and some of the people she

1064
01:03:21,880 --> 01:03:26,640
Speaker 2: is associating with, Josh it's really remarkable. She just named

1065
01:03:26,680 --> 01:03:33,360
Speaker 2: a new incoming DEI chief and this individual actually recounted

1066
01:03:33,360 --> 01:03:36,240
Speaker 2: a mob yanking down a monument, dumping into the water,

1067
01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:41,000
Speaker 2: and then treating it as righteous because the ancestors supposedly

1068
01:03:41,080 --> 01:03:46,840
Speaker 2: guided it. Talking about the Christopher Columbus Statue, which was

1069
01:03:46,840 --> 01:03:52,240
Speaker 2: funded by about a thousand Italian American residents of Richmond.

1070
01:03:52,360 --> 01:03:54,240
Speaker 2: You guys are in for quite a shock over there

1071
01:03:54,240 --> 01:03:54,920
Speaker 2: in Virginia.

1072
01:03:55,840 --> 01:03:58,920
Speaker 16: Yeah, because look, Ama Ottenburger and the Democrats as a

1073
01:03:58,920 --> 01:04:03,120
Speaker 16: whole on on this last campaign Backflasher ran as a

1074
01:04:03,120 --> 01:04:05,280
Speaker 16: moderate and a lot of ways ablace memberg can be

1075
01:04:05,320 --> 01:04:07,920
Speaker 16: a moderate. But the risk you run with that is

1076
01:04:07,960 --> 01:04:11,160
Speaker 16: her getting pressured by you know, whether it's Democrats in

1077
01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:14,600
Speaker 16: the General Assembly or in other components of the Democratic

1078
01:04:14,640 --> 01:04:19,080
Speaker 16: machine forcing or you know, seemingly forcing her to hire

1079
01:04:19,080 --> 01:04:21,760
Speaker 16: some of these people that definitely have more left wing,

1080
01:04:22,320 --> 01:04:26,320
Speaker 16: frankly woke views than she does. So yeah, no, I mean,

1081
01:04:26,440 --> 01:04:29,880
Speaker 16: Virginians will see, you know, what her final team ends

1082
01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:33,280
Speaker 16: up being when she takes office in January. In January,

1083
01:04:33,360 --> 01:04:35,840
Speaker 16: but I mean, that's definitely one of her worst hires

1084
01:04:35,880 --> 01:04:36,160
Speaker 16: so far.

1085
01:04:36,240 --> 01:04:39,040
Speaker 2: Frank have you heard this crazy story out of Is

1086
01:04:39,080 --> 01:04:41,960
Speaker 2: it Blacksburg, Virginia? Are you familiar with Blacksburg?

1087
01:04:42,680 --> 01:04:43,000
Speaker 3: I am?

1088
01:04:43,080 --> 01:04:44,360
Speaker 16: That is where Virginia Tech is.

1089
01:04:44,720 --> 01:04:47,080
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, well that makes sense that. So there's

1090
01:04:47,120 --> 01:04:50,720
Speaker 2: a city councilman, a kid by the name of Lean Watson.

1091
01:04:51,600 --> 01:04:54,600
Speaker 2: He was convicted of fraud charges and he's a big

1092
01:04:54,640 --> 01:04:58,200
Speaker 2: pal of Spamberger's. By the way, this guy in his

1093
01:04:58,280 --> 01:05:01,640
Speaker 2: mid twenties, he was con victed a fraud and was

1094
01:05:01,680 --> 01:05:05,360
Speaker 2: forced to resign. And the reason why he apparently was

1095
01:05:05,400 --> 01:05:08,640
Speaker 2: not living in the district where he was running for office.

1096
01:05:10,920 --> 01:05:14,320
Speaker 16: Frankly, there's been more surprising things his last election.

1097
01:05:14,400 --> 01:05:15,200
Speaker 13: Sorryphon Virginia.

1098
01:05:15,280 --> 01:05:19,440
Speaker 16: So I mean, this guy at the Grand Scheme not

1099
01:05:19,440 --> 01:05:22,240
Speaker 16: not too bad authors considered. But yeah, I mean, obviously

1100
01:05:22,360 --> 01:05:24,720
Speaker 16: he should resign, should have run for office. But just

1101
01:05:24,800 --> 01:05:26,520
Speaker 16: taking back to some of the scandals that came out

1102
01:05:26,560 --> 01:05:28,360
Speaker 16: the election cycle.

1103
01:05:28,280 --> 01:05:30,680
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, there were, and there were a lot in Virginia.

1104
01:05:30,680 --> 01:05:33,200
Speaker 2: I don't know what's going on over there in that state.

1105
01:05:33,240 --> 01:05:35,120
Speaker 16: But you should write a political drama about him.

1106
01:05:35,120 --> 01:05:35,920
Speaker 6: Maybe that should be my.

1107
01:05:35,880 --> 01:05:40,600
Speaker 2: Book, your second book. Yeah, I love it, all right,

1108
01:05:40,680 --> 01:05:44,200
Speaker 2: goodness gracious. Yeah, this guy found guilty on two counts

1109
01:05:44,200 --> 01:05:48,360
Speaker 2: of felony election fraud, one count of illegally voting an election.

1110
01:05:48,680 --> 01:05:51,880
Speaker 2: They say he registered, he registered to vote, He listed

1111
01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:57,480
Speaker 2: the mayor's address as as his residence. This is insane.

1112
01:05:58,360 --> 01:06:02,560
Speaker 2: So anyway, very remorseful now apparently, so there you go,

1113
01:06:03,160 --> 01:06:10,120
Speaker 2: all right, Josh Jones published author Ish published ish author, Josh,

1114
01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:12,320
Speaker 2: when are you heading back down to Texas? Is going

1115
01:06:12,360 --> 01:06:14,000
Speaker 2: to be out on the campaign trails soon? I have

1116
01:06:14,040 --> 01:06:15,880
Speaker 2: to imagine, Yeah.

1117
01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:17,480
Speaker 16: Yeah, I'm back in DC now for a couple of

1118
01:06:17,560 --> 01:06:20,160
Speaker 16: days and then heading back down to Texas. Either choose

1119
01:06:20,160 --> 01:06:23,600
Speaker 16: their Wednesday of next week. So right, not much downtime,

1120
01:06:23,640 --> 01:06:25,600
Speaker 16: but you know, got a couple of days back home

1121
01:06:25,640 --> 01:06:27,760
Speaker 16: in DC and then back down to Texas again.

1122
01:06:28,440 --> 01:06:31,240
Speaker 2: How are things? What's your gut telling you about the midterms?

1123
01:06:32,480 --> 01:06:36,000
Speaker 16: I mean, look, the holiday season, nobody's really tuned in politically,

1124
01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:37,560
Speaker 16: so it's kind of hard to tell what the area

1125
01:06:37,680 --> 01:06:41,320
Speaker 16: is going to be. I think, I mean genuinely a

1126
01:06:41,400 --> 01:06:43,800
Speaker 16: coin tosses them right now. If Republicans can get a

1127
01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:47,280
Speaker 16: core message on affordability and blast that the entire way

1128
01:06:47,280 --> 01:06:49,240
Speaker 16: between now and November, I think we'll be in a

1129
01:06:49,240 --> 01:06:51,920
Speaker 16: decent spot. But it depends on you know, we got

1130
01:06:51,920 --> 01:06:54,480
Speaker 16: a political attorney into the midterms, so who knows what happens.

1131
01:06:54,520 --> 01:06:57,200
Speaker 16: But it's truly a coin tosses them right now.

1132
01:06:57,400 --> 01:07:01,600
Speaker 2: All right, good stuff, Josh, Joe os Republicans strad to

1133
01:07:01,600 --> 01:07:02,520
Speaker 2: just be safe out there.

1134
01:07:02,600 --> 01:07:04,680
Speaker 7: Josh, thanks to appreciate it.

1135
01:07:04,680 --> 01:07:08,640
Speaker 2: All right, good man, right there, everybody, Josh Jones the

1136
01:07:08,720 --> 01:07:13,600
Speaker 2: campaign trail. Uh, let's go to Statesville, North Carolina. Charles.

1137
01:07:13,640 --> 01:07:16,640
Speaker 2: You know it's been a long time, Charles, glad you called.

1138
01:07:16,360 --> 01:07:20,120
Speaker 9: In yet hast tied a bladd Merry Christmas and Happy

1139
01:07:20,120 --> 01:07:21,560
Speaker 9: New Year to you. Hope you're doing well.

1140
01:07:21,640 --> 01:07:24,280
Speaker 2: I'm well. I thought you said bloody, but you said belated.

1141
01:07:24,440 --> 01:07:28,400
Speaker 2: My apologies, Yeah, I said belated, yes, elated?

1142
01:07:28,960 --> 01:07:29,360
Speaker 9: Yeah.

1143
01:07:29,440 --> 01:07:30,000
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1144
01:07:30,160 --> 01:07:34,680
Speaker 9: Well, hey, Todd uhigh in on this illegal immigration with

1145
01:07:34,920 --> 01:07:40,280
Speaker 9: these Somali's and others. The scab has been pulled off,

1146
01:07:40,320 --> 01:07:42,800
Speaker 9: and I think the American people just are just seeing

1147
01:07:42,840 --> 01:07:46,520
Speaker 9: the tip of the iceberg. But probably just like you,

1148
01:07:46,760 --> 01:07:48,960
Speaker 9: the last few days and weeks, I just it's just

1149
01:07:49,000 --> 01:07:51,360
Speaker 9: made my blood boiled about what's going on in Minnesota

1150
01:07:52,040 --> 01:07:55,360
Speaker 9: and how they've gotten away with this, and just the

1151
01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:59,280
Speaker 9: scale of it, and with this being front and center

1152
01:07:59,400 --> 01:08:03,000
Speaker 9: right now in the minds of the American people, this

1153
01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:05,960
Speaker 9: is the perfect opportunity for President Trump, I think, had

1154
01:08:05,960 --> 01:08:10,120
Speaker 9: to go full board on doubling down on removing these

1155
01:08:10,200 --> 01:08:14,800
Speaker 9: illegal immigrants from the country, and that dove tails into

1156
01:08:14,840 --> 01:08:20,160
Speaker 9: this whole affordability crisis. You know, yesterday I read something

1157
01:08:20,160 --> 01:08:23,800
Speaker 9: on X by General Michael Quinn. They just said, basically,

1158
01:08:24,479 --> 01:08:28,200
Speaker 9: you know, if the Trump administration and the MAGA movement

1159
01:08:28,280 --> 01:08:32,479
Speaker 9: doesn't do something now to implement this agenda, you know,

1160
01:08:32,560 --> 01:08:34,400
Speaker 9: with all the evidence, then it was all a bunch

1161
01:08:34,439 --> 01:08:36,839
Speaker 9: of bs to begin with, and it was just all phony.

1162
01:08:37,600 --> 01:08:41,240
Speaker 9: And I don't believe that that's what you know, President

1163
01:08:41,240 --> 01:08:45,599
Speaker 9: Trump is. But I agree with what you said earlier.

1164
01:08:45,760 --> 01:08:49,160
Speaker 9: We need to Number one is revoke get rid of

1165
01:08:49,200 --> 01:08:53,320
Speaker 9: this AH to one D VISA program. We have a

1166
01:08:53,360 --> 01:08:56,320
Speaker 9: budget that's going to be coming up in thirty days

1167
01:08:56,360 --> 01:08:58,040
Speaker 9: in Congress. You know that they're going to have to

1168
01:08:58,080 --> 01:09:00,840
Speaker 9: pass a budget, and the last thing I want to

1169
01:09:00,880 --> 01:09:03,840
Speaker 9: see is a reconciliation bill that's by the pass by

1170
01:09:03,840 --> 01:09:06,719
Speaker 9: the Republicans, because all that's going to do is funded

1171
01:09:06,760 --> 01:09:09,439
Speaker 9: at current levels, which means that Somali immigrants are going

1172
01:09:09,479 --> 01:09:12,280
Speaker 9: to get the same thing that they had been getting.

1173
01:09:12,680 --> 01:09:16,080
Speaker 9: So this is a perfect opportunity to cut out the waste, fraud,

1174
01:09:16,160 --> 01:09:17,040
Speaker 9: and abuse there.

1175
01:09:19,960 --> 01:09:21,599
Speaker 12: I wholeheartedly think that.

1176
01:09:21,640 --> 01:09:25,400
Speaker 9: There needs to be a ten year moratorium owned legal immigration.

1177
01:09:26,680 --> 01:09:28,519
Speaker 9: We have to put as palls to this and so

1178
01:09:28,680 --> 01:09:31,160
Speaker 9: we can get the ones that are already here to

1179
01:09:31,280 --> 01:09:36,880
Speaker 9: assimilate But Todd, another fath is what's going on politically

1180
01:09:36,960 --> 01:09:40,599
Speaker 9: in the country with twenty million people coming in illegally tied.

1181
01:09:41,680 --> 01:09:43,920
Speaker 9: If you take that number and you divide that by

1182
01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:47,400
Speaker 9: seven hundred and fifty thousand, which is the number of

1183
01:09:47,439 --> 01:09:52,280
Speaker 9: people that you know, that's one congressional seat. There are

1184
01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:55,360
Speaker 9: twenty six seats in Congress right now that should not

1185
01:09:55,439 --> 01:09:59,719
Speaker 9: be there, and they're primarily Democrats. And I think President

1186
01:09:59,720 --> 01:10:02,400
Speaker 9: Trump needs to in pam Vyindy. They need to say

1187
01:10:02,400 --> 01:10:07,200
Speaker 9: there's going to be a mid decade you recount of

1188
01:10:07,280 --> 01:10:10,639
Speaker 9: the census, and all twenty million people that are here

1189
01:10:10,680 --> 01:10:14,599
Speaker 9: illegally are not going to count for congressional abortionment. I mean,

1190
01:10:14,640 --> 01:10:17,960
Speaker 9: go ahead and put through that whole birthright citizenship thing

1191
01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:20,680
Speaker 9: and to the Supreme Court and left them decide that.

1192
01:10:21,320 --> 01:10:23,720
Speaker 9: But the way you move this thing forward, Todd, in

1193
01:10:23,720 --> 01:10:26,479
Speaker 9: my opinion, and through both houses of Congress, is you

1194
01:10:27,000 --> 01:10:29,880
Speaker 9: tell the American people that the main reason that you

1195
01:10:29,960 --> 01:10:32,920
Speaker 9: can't afford a house, that you can't afford groceries, that

1196
01:10:33,000 --> 01:10:35,639
Speaker 9: you can't afford a lot of the things, it's because

1197
01:10:35,720 --> 01:10:41,080
Speaker 9: easy illegalists have caused prices to skyrocket from everything education,

1198
01:10:41,320 --> 01:10:45,880
Speaker 9: the healthcare, and they're suppressing the wages of working Americans

1199
01:10:46,280 --> 01:10:49,960
Speaker 9: to where young people are just indentured servants. So I

1200
01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:53,000
Speaker 9: think the two go hand in hand. But I think

1201
01:10:53,000 --> 01:10:55,840
Speaker 9: if the trumpet, if Trump and the Republicans will do that,

1202
01:10:56,479 --> 01:10:58,719
Speaker 9: I think that we'll win the midterms. If we don't

1203
01:10:58,760 --> 01:11:01,559
Speaker 9: take some action on it and put some actions behind

1204
01:11:01,560 --> 01:11:05,160
Speaker 9: the rhetoric, I think we're gonna we're gonna lose.

1205
01:11:05,439 --> 01:11:08,640
Speaker 2: Do you think that that there may be people inside

1206
01:11:08,760 --> 01:11:12,400
Speaker 2: the the Trump enter circle that are whispering in his ear, Hey,

1207
01:11:12,560 --> 01:11:15,400
Speaker 2: you need to be kinder, you need to be gentler,

1208
01:11:15,760 --> 01:11:18,880
Speaker 2: you need to be thinking about legacy. And that could

1209
01:11:18,960 --> 01:11:22,360
Speaker 2: be one of the reasons why the administration's taking its

1210
01:11:22,360 --> 01:11:25,599
Speaker 2: foot off the gas when it you know, in connection

1211
01:11:25,760 --> 01:11:29,080
Speaker 2: to all the do O J scandals and things of

1212
01:11:29,120 --> 01:11:29,719
Speaker 2: that nature.

1213
01:11:31,800 --> 01:11:34,599
Speaker 9: Uh, Todd, Yeah, I think that's possible, But I don't

1214
01:11:34,600 --> 01:11:37,120
Speaker 9: think that that's I don't think the ones that could

1215
01:11:37,160 --> 01:11:40,599
Speaker 9: be saying that President Trump are actually sincere and that's

1216
01:11:40,640 --> 01:11:43,479
Speaker 9: the real, uh, their real motivation for telling them that.

1217
01:11:44,200 --> 01:11:47,000
Speaker 9: I think the real motivation is so many Republicans, as

1218
01:11:47,040 --> 01:11:49,759
Speaker 9: you and I both know, Uh, they want they wanted

1219
01:11:49,760 --> 01:11:53,000
Speaker 9: illegal immigration, they wanted cheap labor. Oh yeah, the chance,

1220
01:11:53,360 --> 01:11:56,240
Speaker 9: the Chamber of Commerce crowd. And you know, you can

1221
01:11:56,280 --> 01:11:59,360
Speaker 9: go after all the criminal illegal aliens all you want to,

1222
01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:02,080
Speaker 9: but you know what it's time to go after. And

1223
01:12:02,120 --> 01:12:03,920
Speaker 9: I know President Trump may not like to hear this.

1224
01:12:04,479 --> 01:12:07,919
Speaker 9: You got to go after the hospitality industry, the construction industry,

1225
01:12:08,120 --> 01:12:12,400
Speaker 9: the restaurant industry, the agricultural industry. You've got to go

1226
01:12:12,520 --> 01:12:15,280
Speaker 9: all that, go after all of that and get these

1227
01:12:15,320 --> 01:12:21,320
Speaker 9: illegals to self to port and start finding companies that

1228
01:12:21,360 --> 01:12:24,240
Speaker 9: are hiring these illegals because they know that they're illegal.

1229
01:12:24,240 --> 01:12:28,360
Speaker 9: There's something called e verify, and I just think that

1230
01:12:28,360 --> 01:12:31,639
Speaker 9: that's the main reason that we're not moving any fasters.

1231
01:12:31,960 --> 01:12:35,280
Speaker 9: So many Republicans are in deablus Democrats and this whole

1232
01:12:35,880 --> 01:12:38,559
Speaker 9: this is all by designs to import cheap labor and

1233
01:12:38,640 --> 01:12:40,719
Speaker 9: change the voting demographic of the country.

1234
01:12:40,960 --> 01:12:44,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, John Rich seems to think more than ninety percent

1235
01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:50,360
Speaker 2: of Congress is being blackmailed in some capacity. I think

1236
01:12:50,400 --> 01:12:53,640
Speaker 2: that it maybe too low of a number. If you

1237
01:12:53,680 --> 01:12:56,080
Speaker 2: asked me, Charles, we've got to run. Good to hear

1238
01:12:56,120 --> 01:12:59,000
Speaker 2: from you, my friend, Thank you. You know it does

1239
01:12:59,120 --> 01:13:01,280
Speaker 2: remind me. All of this reminds me going back to

1240
01:13:01,320 --> 01:13:06,040
Speaker 2: your Greek mythology. Remember remember the Siege of Troy and

1241
01:13:06,120 --> 01:13:09,880
Speaker 2: the Trojan horse, right, And I think what we've what

1242
01:13:09,920 --> 01:13:13,120
Speaker 2: we've had here exposed to us is a great, big

1243
01:13:13,400 --> 01:13:18,799
Speaker 2: trojan horse with millions and millions of illegals that flooded

1244
01:13:18,800 --> 01:13:23,720
Speaker 2: the country. And now we're discovering exactly how much this

1245
01:13:23,840 --> 01:13:27,640
Speaker 2: is costing the American tax mayer. And this is just

1246
01:13:27,800 --> 01:13:30,719
Speaker 2: it's simply not sustainable. I got to take a quick break.

1247
01:13:31,000 --> 01:13:33,479
Speaker 2: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.

1248
01:13:33,760 --> 01:13:46,120
Speaker 2: This is the Tod Stern Show, all right. Coming up

1249
01:13:46,160 --> 01:13:48,240
Speaker 2: to the next hour, we're gonna be talking to doctor

1250
01:13:48,360 --> 01:13:55,600
Speaker 2: John Fleming. He is going to primary Bill Cassidy and Louisiana.

1251
01:13:56,160 --> 01:13:59,840
Speaker 2: Bill Cassidy of course a never trumper, So looking forward

1252
01:13:59,840 --> 01:14:03,800
Speaker 2: to that conversation coming up in the next hour of

1253
01:14:04,080 --> 01:14:07,479
Speaker 2: the show. Nine oh one two six zero five nine

1254
01:14:07,560 --> 01:14:10,360
Speaker 2: two six is our telephone number. That's nine oh one

1255
01:14:10,439 --> 01:14:15,040
Speaker 2: two six zero five, nine two six. Yesterday we had

1256
01:14:15,080 --> 01:14:19,600
Speaker 2: Michael Lindell on the program. I love that guy. He

1257
01:14:19,720 --> 01:14:24,360
Speaker 2: is a great testimony, great story overcoming all sorts of obstacles.

1258
01:14:24,760 --> 01:14:29,439
Speaker 2: He found he found a relationship with Jesus Christ and

1259
01:14:29,760 --> 01:14:33,479
Speaker 2: it radically changed the direction of his life. Going from

Speaker 1: Todd starts.

1298
01:17:26,240 --> 01:17:31,479
Speaker 2: Well, well, hello, everybody, Welcome to the Todd Sterns Radio Show.

1299
01:17:32,120 --> 01:17:36,559
Speaker 2: Great to have you with us this hour of the program. Well,

1300
01:17:37,680 --> 01:17:40,479
Speaker 2: yesterday last night on our NEWSMAC show, we had an

1301
01:17:40,479 --> 01:17:46,440
Speaker 2: opportunity to speak to the Speaker of the House in Minnesota,

1302
01:17:46,840 --> 01:17:50,840
Speaker 2: and needless to say, Republicans in that state are under

1303
01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:55,920
Speaker 2: siege by these Democrats, the socialists, but they're fighting back.

1304
01:17:56,439 --> 01:17:58,960
Speaker 2: I want you to oh, and we're going to get

1305
01:17:58,960 --> 01:18:03,479
Speaker 2: to that and just a few moments. But again, the

1306
01:18:03,520 --> 01:18:10,240
Speaker 2: situation out of out of Minnesota is just unhinged, just unhinged.

1307
01:18:10,320 --> 01:18:12,519
Speaker 2: So we're going to be talking to the Speaker of

1308
01:18:12,560 --> 01:18:15,519
Speaker 2: the House in just a few moments. But one of

1309
01:18:15,600 --> 01:18:18,400
Speaker 2: the big problems we've had is dealing with all of

1310
01:18:18,439 --> 01:18:25,559
Speaker 2: these rhinos on Capitol Hill and individuals, especially Republicans, who

1311
01:18:25,640 --> 01:18:29,639
Speaker 2: are standing in the way of President Trump's agenda. One

1312
01:18:29,680 --> 01:18:33,240
Speaker 2: of those individuals is actually from Louisiana, and our next

1313
01:18:33,280 --> 01:18:35,880
Speaker 2: guest wants to do something about it. He is running

1314
01:18:35,960 --> 01:18:40,360
Speaker 2: for the US Senate against Bill Cassidy. Doctor John Fleming

1315
01:18:40,640 --> 01:18:43,800
Speaker 2: joins us the Louisiana State Treasurer. Doctor Fleming, hope you're

1316
01:18:43,840 --> 01:18:44,639
Speaker 2: doing well today.

1317
01:18:45,800 --> 01:18:50,120
Speaker 10: I am Todd. Thank you, and happy almost new years

1318
01:18:50,360 --> 01:18:52,400
Speaker 10: and great to talk with you once.

1319
01:18:52,200 --> 01:18:55,960
Speaker 2: Again, Doctor Fleming. There is a lot at stake, And

1320
01:18:56,000 --> 01:19:00,320
Speaker 2: as we go through these next few months, getting closer

1321
01:19:00,320 --> 01:19:03,439
Speaker 2: and closer to the midterms, fewer and fewer things are

1322
01:19:03,479 --> 01:19:07,599
Speaker 2: going to be accomplished on Capitol Hill. And I'm just wondering,

1323
01:19:07,760 --> 01:19:11,320
Speaker 2: what is it that Cassidy has not done? Why is

1324
01:19:11,360 --> 01:19:13,640
Speaker 2: it that you're jumping into this race and you're going

1325
01:19:13,680 --> 01:19:15,559
Speaker 2: to primary a sitting US senator.

1326
01:19:17,160 --> 01:19:22,840
Speaker 10: Well, first of all, Todd Bill Cassidy has been one

1327
01:19:22,880 --> 01:19:25,639
Speaker 10: of the most moderate or shall I say, left leaning

1328
01:19:26,120 --> 01:19:30,360
Speaker 10: Republican senators in the US, and it coming from a

1329
01:19:30,880 --> 01:19:36,960
Speaker 10: ruby red Trump America first state. And the worst of

1330
01:19:36,960 --> 01:19:39,720
Speaker 10: all is in twenty twenty one, he was one of

1331
01:19:39,760 --> 01:19:44,400
Speaker 10: the seven senators Republican senators who voted with the Democrats

1332
01:19:45,000 --> 01:19:48,559
Speaker 10: to impeach President Trump, and he was actually already out

1333
01:19:48,560 --> 01:19:51,799
Speaker 10: of office, which means that what he was really doing

1334
01:19:52,000 --> 01:19:56,519
Speaker 10: is interfering with the possibility of Trump running once again,

1335
01:19:56,600 --> 01:19:59,960
Speaker 10: which is you know he did because they were not successful.

1336
01:20:00,320 --> 01:20:03,880
Speaker 10: But even along the way as Trump began to enter

1337
01:20:03,960 --> 01:20:06,880
Speaker 10: the arena to run once again, he called for him

1338
01:20:06,920 --> 01:20:12,479
Speaker 10: to step down, said he couldn't win, said that neither

1339
01:20:12,520 --> 01:20:15,439
Speaker 10: Biden nor Trump were good, and that maybe we should

1340
01:20:15,479 --> 01:20:21,040
Speaker 10: have a third party, a non Republican, non Democrat. But

1341
01:20:21,160 --> 01:20:27,320
Speaker 10: then you know, once Trump was elected, he resisted the

1342
01:20:27,400 --> 01:20:31,639
Speaker 10: Secretary of Health and Human Services, Bobby Kennedy, but finally

1343
01:20:31,680 --> 01:20:35,520
Speaker 10: gave in under heavy pressure, but has tried to micromanage

1344
01:20:36,120 --> 01:20:39,639
Speaker 10: the Secretary of Health and Human Services ever since and

1345
01:20:39,880 --> 01:20:43,599
Speaker 10: preventing him from doing his job, but at the same

1346
01:20:43,640 --> 01:20:47,519
Speaker 10: time claiming that he's now a big buddy and partner

1347
01:20:47,600 --> 01:20:50,680
Speaker 10: with President Trump, which nobody buys in Louisiana.

1348
01:20:51,120 --> 01:20:54,760
Speaker 2: No, and they shouldn't. I mean, it's pretty clear where

1349
01:20:54,800 --> 01:21:00,120
Speaker 2: this guy stands, and he stands against our president, doctor Fleming.

1350
01:21:00,280 --> 01:21:04,360
Speaker 2: When you look at the lack of action that's happened

1351
01:21:04,400 --> 01:21:07,799
Speaker 2: in the Senate. For example, the House back in April,

1352
01:21:07,800 --> 01:21:10,320
Speaker 2: they passed the Save Act, which would the Safe Act,

1353
01:21:10,360 --> 01:21:15,360
Speaker 2: which would protect our ballots and ensure ballot integrity. That

1354
01:21:15,479 --> 01:21:18,040
Speaker 2: piece of legislation has yet to be picked up by

1355
01:21:18,080 --> 01:21:20,680
Speaker 2: the Senate. And it seems to me that you've got

1356
01:21:20,680 --> 01:21:24,120
Speaker 2: a lot of Republicans that are hiding behind Senate tradition

1357
01:21:24,840 --> 01:21:28,720
Speaker 2: as opposed to delivering on the agenda that we the

1358
01:21:28,760 --> 01:21:33,400
Speaker 2: people sent the Republicans to Washington to accomplish.

1359
01:21:33,479 --> 01:21:40,240
Speaker 10: Well, absolutely, we're up against filibuster problem, which means that,

1360
01:21:40,439 --> 01:21:44,439
Speaker 10: you know, Democrats, because you have to have a sixty

1361
01:21:44,560 --> 01:21:48,439
Speaker 10: vote margin in order to get things passed, except for

1362
01:21:49,720 --> 01:21:54,400
Speaker 10: the reconciliation deals. That's a problem, the blue slip problem.

1363
01:21:54,720 --> 01:21:59,519
Speaker 10: President Trump didn't get his appointee in New Jersey as

1364
01:21:59,560 --> 01:22:03,760
Speaker 10: the US attorney because of the blue slip issue, which

1365
01:22:03,800 --> 01:22:07,480
Speaker 10: is an archaic tradition that's not found in the Constitution.

1366
01:22:08,840 --> 01:22:09,519
Speaker 3: So you're right.

1367
01:22:09,640 --> 01:22:13,760
Speaker 10: There are people who are resisting President Trump in his

1368
01:22:13,920 --> 01:22:19,120
Speaker 10: policies and in his initiatives. And as I say, Bill

1369
01:22:19,200 --> 01:22:21,559
Speaker 10: Cassidy has been one of the leaders, may be the

1370
01:22:21,720 --> 01:22:25,559
Speaker 10: leader of that, particularly in the health and human services arena,

1371
01:22:26,080 --> 01:22:30,639
Speaker 10: where there's attempts going on right now to reform our

1372
01:22:30,720 --> 01:22:34,080
Speaker 10: national health care policies, which are way overdue.

1373
01:22:34,520 --> 01:22:34,680
Speaker 4: You know.

1374
01:22:34,760 --> 01:22:37,719
Speaker 2: One of the things I'm excited, and you've had quite

1375
01:22:37,720 --> 01:22:42,960
Speaker 2: a career. You're former congressman, senior Trump advisor, now the

1376
01:22:42,960 --> 01:22:45,920
Speaker 2: state treasurer. And it's our understanding and correct me if

1377
01:22:45,960 --> 01:22:48,960
Speaker 2: I'm wrong here, But in January, you guys will officially

1378
01:22:49,040 --> 01:22:52,839
Speaker 2: ban junk food purchases on Snamp or EBT cards.

1379
01:22:54,120 --> 01:22:54,960
Speaker 3: That is correct.

1380
01:22:55,360 --> 01:23:00,639
Speaker 10: That was passed into law by the state legislature. Our

1381
01:23:00,680 --> 01:23:05,880
Speaker 10: Governor Jeff Landry sign that in the law. And you know,

1382
01:23:06,280 --> 01:23:13,400
Speaker 10: Louisiana is probably ranks the highest in obesity and metabolic diseases,

1383
01:23:14,120 --> 01:23:17,840
Speaker 10: and those who suffer from this the most are the

1384
01:23:17,880 --> 01:23:21,559
Speaker 10: population that gets that benefits, which is almost fifty percent

1385
01:23:22,040 --> 01:23:25,559
Speaker 10: of the population population of Louisiana. So it makes a

1386
01:23:25,560 --> 01:23:31,280
Speaker 10: lot of sense that we encourage physical activity and healthy

1387
01:23:31,360 --> 01:23:35,800
Speaker 10: eating among those who are more likely to suffer from obesity,

1388
01:23:36,200 --> 01:23:39,439
Speaker 10: which leads to diabetes, cancer, heart disease, and really just

1389
01:23:39,479 --> 01:23:44,520
Speaker 10: about anything that's harmful to you. So you know, Louisiana

1390
01:23:44,560 --> 01:23:47,559
Speaker 10: wants to rise to the top of the list in

1391
01:23:47,640 --> 01:23:51,320
Speaker 10: terms of healthy citizens. And so we begin with this.

1392
01:23:52,479 --> 01:23:56,400
Speaker 2: Doctor John Fleming is on our Patriot Mobile newsmaker line today.

1393
01:23:56,400 --> 01:24:00,880
Speaker 2: He is going to primary Bill Cassidy the areas. What

1394
01:24:01,000 --> 01:24:04,000
Speaker 2: had been the rumblings out there on the campaign trail.

1395
01:24:06,200 --> 01:24:13,200
Speaker 10: Well, we've done multiple polls. Other other campaigns and third

1396
01:24:13,200 --> 01:24:16,120
Speaker 10: parties have done multiple polls and they all come out

1397
01:24:16,160 --> 01:24:20,320
Speaker 10: the same, and that is that Bill Cassidy his feeling

1398
01:24:20,880 --> 01:24:24,280
Speaker 10: of support is thirty percent. He can't get above thirty percent,

1399
01:24:24,960 --> 01:24:28,320
Speaker 10: and he's tried, He's spent millions and millions of dollars

1400
01:24:28,360 --> 01:24:31,759
Speaker 10: to convince people that he's somebody that he's not really,

1401
01:24:31,800 --> 01:24:35,200
Speaker 10: which is a supporter of the First America Agenda and

1402
01:24:35,240 --> 01:24:40,920
Speaker 10: President Trump. And so what it shows is that in

1403
01:24:40,960 --> 01:24:45,720
Speaker 10: the crowded field of about ten people, he and I

1404
01:24:45,920 --> 01:24:48,240
Speaker 10: are way at the top of the list. On the

1405
01:24:48,320 --> 01:24:52,519
Speaker 10: closed primary results, the last one that was done in

1406
01:24:52,560 --> 01:24:56,639
Speaker 10: October showed me at twenty five percent Cassidy at twenty

1407
01:24:56,680 --> 01:24:59,320
Speaker 10: three percent. So I'm leading him by two points there.

1408
01:24:59,680 --> 01:25:02,240
Speaker 10: But then in the runoff, because there will be a runoff,

1409
01:25:03,000 --> 01:25:09,040
Speaker 10: I win by fourteen points. So clearly I'm leading him,

1410
01:25:09,320 --> 01:25:13,120
Speaker 10: and he's desperate to try to get his numbers up.

1411
01:25:13,560 --> 01:25:17,360
Speaker 10: But the people of Louisiana are skeptical because this was

1412
01:25:17,400 --> 01:25:19,640
Speaker 10: a man who was the last time he ran for

1413
01:25:19,720 --> 01:25:24,719
Speaker 10: reelection almost six years ago, he asked for and got

1414
01:25:24,760 --> 01:25:28,760
Speaker 10: Trump's endorsement, and it was only months later that he

1415
01:25:28,880 --> 01:25:32,000
Speaker 10: turned around and stabbed President Trump in the back by

1416
01:25:32,040 --> 01:25:36,280
Speaker 10: voting to convict him of high crimes and misdemeanors in

1417
01:25:36,320 --> 01:25:40,080
Speaker 10: the second impeachment trial. And that was after so called

1418
01:25:40,080 --> 01:25:44,600
Speaker 10: reviewing the evidence. So the people of Louisiana have not

1419
01:25:44,760 --> 01:25:49,920
Speaker 10: forgotten that. And the Louisiana GOP, the Republican Party of

1420
01:25:49,960 --> 01:25:55,439
Speaker 10: Louisiana have already sanctioned him and condemned him, and they're

1421
01:25:55,479 --> 01:26:01,240
Speaker 10: not supporting his reelection. So apparently the Ocassidy is persona

1422
01:26:01,280 --> 01:26:03,600
Speaker 10: and on broad in Louisiana, not only because of his

1423
01:26:03,680 --> 01:26:09,000
Speaker 10: opposition against Trump, but because he supports a Democrat left

1424
01:26:09,040 --> 01:26:16,360
Speaker 10: leaning woke policies the climate agenda, such as wind and

1425
01:26:16,400 --> 01:26:21,519
Speaker 10: sower and now carbon capture and sequestration, which involves imminent

1426
01:26:21,600 --> 01:26:25,960
Speaker 10: domain and control of people's land by private companies. In Louisiana,

1427
01:26:26,000 --> 01:26:29,679
Speaker 10: there's a big, big turmoil over that, and so he's

1428
01:26:29,800 --> 01:26:33,920
Speaker 10: really voted the wrong way in every case. He supported

1429
01:26:34,000 --> 01:26:36,840
Speaker 10: and was one of the architects of the Infrastructure Bill,

1430
01:26:37,640 --> 01:26:41,360
Speaker 10: which was supposed to renew our highways and our airways.

1431
01:26:41,800 --> 01:26:47,200
Speaker 10: But what it's actually done is put money into woke investments,

1432
01:26:47,240 --> 01:26:50,960
Speaker 10: you know, climate change type of investments. Five billion dollars

1433
01:26:51,040 --> 01:26:55,200
Speaker 10: in a fast railway in California that was never created.

1434
01:26:56,080 --> 01:26:59,479
Speaker 10: So Louisiana's just tired of this. They're ready for common

1435
01:26:59,520 --> 01:27:03,280
Speaker 10: sense governance, and that's why they want to send a

1436
01:27:03,400 --> 01:27:07,200
Speaker 10: first America a congress a former congressman like me to

1437
01:27:07,240 --> 01:27:09,280
Speaker 10: the US Senate to replace Field Cassidy.

1438
01:27:09,479 --> 01:27:13,559
Speaker 2: All Right, Fleming Senate campaign dot Com is the website, folks,

1439
01:27:13,560 --> 01:27:16,880
Speaker 2: Fleming Senate campaign dot Com and you can read all

1440
01:27:16,920 --> 01:27:21,479
Speaker 2: about doctor Fleming and all of his platform positions. But

1441
01:27:22,280 --> 01:27:24,640
Speaker 2: I think that you're going to be looking at the

1442
01:27:24,720 --> 01:27:30,360
Speaker 2: next US Senator from the great state of Louisiana, Congressman

1443
01:27:30,439 --> 01:27:35,920
Speaker 2: Doctor Fleming. Senator Fleming, thank you so much for joining us,

1444
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:37,800
Speaker 2: and we wish you nothing but the best out there

1445
01:27:37,800 --> 01:27:38,759
Speaker 2: on the campaign trail.

1446
01:27:39,120 --> 01:27:40,519
Speaker 10: Fantastic, Thank you so much.

1447
01:27:40,640 --> 01:27:41,080
Speaker 3: Doglin.

1448
01:27:41,200 --> 01:27:44,760
Speaker 2: All right, Happy New Year, Happy New Year. No, I

1449
01:27:44,800 --> 01:27:47,280
Speaker 2: am so glad to see somebody going up, going up

1450
01:27:47,320 --> 01:27:52,160
Speaker 2: against Bill Cassidy. This guy, I mean, he really did,

1451
01:27:52,200 --> 01:27:54,760
Speaker 2: and I think I think doctor Fleming just framed it

1452
01:27:54,880 --> 01:27:57,920
Speaker 2: beautifully them. He really did stab President Trump in the back,

1453
01:27:58,479 --> 01:28:02,200
Speaker 2: asked for the presidents in horsemen, and then stab the

1454
01:28:02,240 --> 01:28:06,200
Speaker 2: guy in the bag. Just unbelievable. All Right, our telephone

1455
01:28:06,240 --> 01:28:09,160
Speaker 2: number nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.

1456
01:28:09,200 --> 01:28:11,880
Speaker 2: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.

1457
01:28:12,280 --> 01:28:17,360
Speaker 2: Another big story we've been following is the situation in Minnesota.

1458
01:28:17,400 --> 01:28:19,680
Speaker 2: When we come back, we're going to be talking with

1459
01:28:19,720 --> 01:28:23,600
Speaker 2: the with the Speaker of the Minnesota House of Representatives.

1460
01:28:23,600 --> 01:28:31,120
Speaker 2: We'll be right back. Jack knowing that again, we're talking

1461
01:28:31,280 --> 01:28:34,200
Speaker 2: millions and millions of views, over one hundred million views

1462
01:28:34,240 --> 01:28:36,880
Speaker 2: of this video on x What do you what do

1463
01:28:36,920 --> 01:28:39,960
Speaker 2: you make of the attention this is receiving nationwide.

1464
01:28:40,600 --> 01:28:44,200
Speaker 17: It's unbelievable that an independent journalist blew the lid off

1465
01:28:44,240 --> 01:28:47,559
Speaker 17: this whole scandal. And now Tim Watts and the liberal

1466
01:28:47,600 --> 01:28:52,040
Speaker 17: Democrats and the Attorney general and Minnesota can't run and

1467
01:28:52,320 --> 01:28:55,880
Speaker 17: they can't hide. But as I understood the video, that

1468
01:28:55,920 --> 01:28:59,080
Speaker 17: one hundred and ten million dollars he found that in

1469
01:28:59,160 --> 01:29:02,479
Speaker 17: one day. We do know that it's been proven that

1470
01:29:02,680 --> 01:29:06,960
Speaker 17: Feeding the Future, Feeding the Future two hundred and fifty

1471
01:29:07,120 --> 01:29:12,240
Speaker 17: million has been identified positively as taken for fraud. And

1472
01:29:12,280 --> 01:29:16,240
Speaker 17: then the total program could have lost up to eighteen

1473
01:29:16,680 --> 01:29:17,719
Speaker 17: billion dollars.

1474
01:29:17,880 --> 01:29:18,679
Speaker 11: In terms of.

1475
01:29:18,600 --> 01:29:23,000
Speaker 17: The federal entitlement programs that we believe could have been solen,

1476
01:29:23,120 --> 01:29:25,160
Speaker 17: that might be as low as five billion dollars.

1477
01:29:25,160 --> 01:29:28,719
Speaker 11: But keep in mind, Minnesota is not a huge state.

1478
01:29:28,840 --> 01:29:32,080
Speaker 17: George is about twice as big, and in terms of population,

1479
01:29:32,760 --> 01:29:33,320
Speaker 17: Minnesota is.

1480
01:29:33,280 --> 01:29:35,160
Speaker 11: About five point seven million people.

1481
01:29:35,439 --> 01:29:38,400
Speaker 17: So you're not talking New York City, you're not talking

1482
01:29:38,479 --> 01:29:39,760
Speaker 17: some California.

1483
01:29:39,960 --> 01:29:41,200
Speaker 11: This is a small state.

1484
01:29:41,360 --> 01:29:45,960
Speaker 17: Tim Waltz is either willfully blind, as that surely said,

1485
01:29:46,080 --> 01:29:48,320
Speaker 17: or as the most incompetent person in the world.

1486
01:29:49,280 --> 01:29:52,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, grin. Nick Shirley actually asked a one daycare owner,

1487
01:29:53,040 --> 01:29:54,920
Speaker 2: where are the kids? Where are those kids?

1488
01:29:55,160 --> 01:29:58,839
Speaker 11: Let's watch We don't want me to be video TV anything.

1489
01:29:59,080 --> 01:30:02,559
Speaker 11: You cannot stop people on the street and questioned them

1490
01:30:04,320 --> 01:30:07,559
Speaker 11: where are the children? I'll sue you. You don't have

1491
01:30:07,640 --> 01:30:11,040
Speaker 11: any permission. We have nothing to do with this, okay?

1492
01:30:11,080 --> 01:30:15,479
Speaker 18: And are they believe I've been attacked twice, once with

1493
01:30:15,520 --> 01:30:18,439
Speaker 18: a knife and the other time I was jumped last

1494
01:30:18,439 --> 01:30:23,160
Speaker 18: Saturday by three Smiley men simply for asking questions about

1495
01:30:23,200 --> 01:30:24,080
Speaker 18: what was going on?

1496
01:30:26,560 --> 01:30:29,679
Speaker 2: And again, gren why is it that the mainstream media

1497
01:30:29,760 --> 01:30:33,519
Speaker 2: that they're still ignoring this story? By and large, they're

1498
01:30:33,560 --> 01:30:34,479
Speaker 2: taking a pass on this.

1499
01:30:35,840 --> 01:30:36,200
Speaker 11: Listen.

1500
01:30:36,360 --> 01:30:40,280
Speaker 19: I know Nick Shirley personally. He's a friend, he's a coworker.

1501
01:30:40,560 --> 01:30:42,800
Speaker 19: I've been on the front line with Nick Shirley many

1502
01:30:42,840 --> 01:30:46,680
Speaker 19: times in Washington, DC. People don't understand his mother is

1503
01:30:46,720 --> 01:30:50,439
Speaker 19: the secret weapon and everything he's telling you is real,

1504
01:30:50,920 --> 01:30:54,800
Speaker 19: it's legitimate. Nick Shirley is the future of journalism, and

1505
01:30:54,920 --> 01:30:59,320
Speaker 19: mainstream media should have done this decades ago, because this

1506
01:30:59,400 --> 01:31:03,960
Speaker 19: is just Minnesota. Imagine right now I'm in Los Angeles.

1507
01:31:04,160 --> 01:31:06,880
Speaker 19: Imagine the fraud we're going to find in Los Angeles.

1508
01:31:07,040 --> 01:31:09,479
Speaker 19: Imagine the fraud we're going to find in New York City.

1509
01:31:09,840 --> 01:31:12,400
Speaker 19: People need to be on high alert because we have

1510
01:31:12,479 --> 01:31:16,880
Speaker 19: an incredible group of independent journalists who are out there

1511
01:31:16,920 --> 01:31:19,599
Speaker 19: on the front line. I do a lot of this work,

1512
01:31:19,640 --> 01:31:23,280
Speaker 19: and listen, Nick Shirley had to spend six thousand dollars

1513
01:31:23,600 --> 01:31:25,960
Speaker 19: just to get security, just to get the airplane tickets

1514
01:31:25,960 --> 01:31:28,160
Speaker 19: to the hotels, just to go back and forth. So

1515
01:31:28,200 --> 01:31:31,000
Speaker 19: it costs about ten grand to do this stuff. And

1516
01:31:31,080 --> 01:31:33,760
Speaker 19: so thank god his mother backs him up. I was

1517
01:31:33,840 --> 01:31:36,559
Speaker 19: just with them at the Turning Point America Fest conference

1518
01:31:36,640 --> 01:31:39,599
Speaker 19: last week in Phoenix, Arizona. He's one of the most

1519
01:31:39,640 --> 01:31:43,960
Speaker 19: amazing journalists, very brave, very brave on the front line.

1520
01:31:44,920 --> 01:31:47,280
Speaker 2: All right, Jack, I want to bring you back in.

1521
01:31:47,760 --> 01:31:51,400
Speaker 2: You served in Congress, and I'm just this makes me angry.

1522
01:31:51,520 --> 01:31:53,760
Speaker 2: I'm a little pissed off, to be perfectly honest with you,

1523
01:31:53,800 --> 01:31:57,000
Speaker 2: because it's not just Minnesota. This happened all over the country.

1524
01:31:57,360 --> 01:32:01,040
Speaker 2: So why can't Congress do something about this? And by

1525
01:32:01,160 --> 01:32:04,439
Speaker 2: doing something, they control the purse strings, and there is

1526
01:32:04,479 --> 01:32:08,360
Speaker 2: a way for them to freeze all federal funding to Minnesota.

1527
01:32:08,720 --> 01:32:11,679
Speaker 2: And I'm wondering maybe we ought to take that extreme

1528
01:32:11,760 --> 01:32:14,439
Speaker 2: step here until we can figure out where all this

1529
01:32:14,560 --> 01:32:15,360
Speaker 2: money is going.

1530
01:32:16,200 --> 01:32:18,120
Speaker 11: You know, Todd is similar to the border.

1531
01:32:18,240 --> 01:32:20,759
Speaker 17: We don't need a new law, we need a new president,

1532
01:32:20,880 --> 01:32:22,800
Speaker 17: and we have a new president, and I think that

1533
01:32:22,880 --> 01:32:24,840
Speaker 17: Donald Trump is going to be cracking down on this.

1534
01:32:25,560 --> 01:32:27,880
Speaker 17: We see this over and over again where people are

1535
01:32:28,000 --> 01:32:32,720
Speaker 17: enrolled in Medicaid and yet they also get an ACA subsidy.

1536
01:32:32,880 --> 01:32:36,759
Speaker 17: We see dead people who are listed in Medicaid, people

1537
01:32:36,760 --> 01:32:39,080
Speaker 17: who are in three or four states who are in Medicaid.

1538
01:32:39,200 --> 01:32:42,759
Speaker 17: So there is a lot of waste, a lot of fraud,

1539
01:32:42,880 --> 01:32:46,760
Speaker 17: and a lot of duplications. That what Actually much of

1540
01:32:46,800 --> 01:32:50,840
Speaker 17: this was addressed in the Big Beautiful Bill. Republicans could

1541
01:32:50,840 --> 01:32:52,720
Speaker 17: not get it as far as we wanted it in

1542
01:32:52,840 --> 01:32:55,800
Speaker 17: terms of the work requirements. But that's another area where

1543
01:32:55,800 --> 01:32:58,880
Speaker 17: there's a lot of fraud. I mean, work is going

1544
01:32:58,920 --> 01:33:01,759
Speaker 17: to school, are saying that you have a dependent child

1545
01:33:01,760 --> 01:33:05,000
Speaker 17: who could be elderly by the way, are an elderly parent.

1546
01:33:05,040 --> 01:33:08,360
Speaker 17: There's so many loopholes in the work requirement alone. But

1547
01:33:09,240 --> 01:33:12,280
Speaker 17: Big Beautiful Bill took a great step in this direction,

1548
01:33:12,640 --> 01:33:12,960
Speaker 17: but we.

1549
01:33:13,040 --> 01:33:13,880
Speaker 11: Need to do more.

1550
01:33:13,960 --> 01:33:16,360
Speaker 17: And I think people like Nick Shirley and Karina want

1551
01:33:16,400 --> 01:33:19,200
Speaker 17: to hug his mother. I think they're going a long

1552
01:33:19,240 --> 01:33:21,439
Speaker 17: way to expose this stuff.

1553
01:33:22,320 --> 01:33:24,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, what say you about that? I mean,

1554
01:33:24,600 --> 01:33:26,439
Speaker 2: at some point we're going to have to get this

1555
01:33:26,600 --> 01:33:28,639
Speaker 2: nipped in the bud. And it seems to me we've

1556
01:33:28,640 --> 01:33:30,639
Speaker 2: got to turn off the money spigott here.

1557
01:33:31,160 --> 01:33:34,360
Speaker 19: It's very important to do that, and I just want

1558
01:33:34,400 --> 01:33:37,080
Speaker 19: people to be on highlert that in every state there

1559
01:33:37,120 --> 01:33:40,720
Speaker 19: are independent journalists like Nick Shirley, and everyone needs to

1560
01:33:40,800 --> 01:33:44,639
Speaker 19: really prepare because when I'm finding out, based in Washington,

1561
01:33:44,720 --> 01:33:47,880
Speaker 19: d C. Which is where I've lived since January twenty

1562
01:33:47,920 --> 01:33:51,960
Speaker 19: twenty one, is that most of these antifa groups, most

1563
01:33:52,000 --> 01:33:56,519
Speaker 19: of these liberal wacky democrats that cause violence, most of

1564
01:33:56,560 --> 01:34:01,800
Speaker 19: these protesters are paid by government rants. And so we

1565
01:34:01,880 --> 01:34:05,599
Speaker 19: need doge in every single town, every city, every state,

1566
01:34:05,960 --> 01:34:08,519
Speaker 19: and we need independent journalists. He was just using his

1567
01:34:08,600 --> 01:34:11,240
Speaker 19: cell phone. Of course, he had to have security. I

1568
01:34:11,280 --> 01:34:14,080
Speaker 19: want to really be clear about that. He's getting many

1569
01:34:14,240 --> 01:34:18,240
Speaker 19: death threats. The backlash for this is serious, and that's

1570
01:34:18,280 --> 01:34:21,400
Speaker 19: why women like me I'm a little bit careful.

1571
01:34:21,000 --> 01:34:21,639
Speaker 17: You know what I mean.

1572
01:34:21,720 --> 01:34:24,200
Speaker 19: But we have to have security to do this stuff,

1573
01:34:24,439 --> 01:34:27,639
Speaker 19: and it's important to know we're doing it. And when

1574
01:34:27,840 --> 01:34:30,559
Speaker 19: I find stuff, I give it to people like Nick Shirley.

1575
01:34:30,720 --> 01:34:32,559
Speaker 19: I give it to journalists that can handle it. And

1576
01:34:32,600 --> 01:34:35,839
Speaker 19: hopefully you'll take some of these stories because we're finding

1577
01:34:35,880 --> 01:34:37,639
Speaker 19: them every single month.

1578
01:34:39,120 --> 01:34:41,640
Speaker 2: All Right, That's some of the back and forth we

1579
01:34:41,720 --> 01:34:45,920
Speaker 2: hand on the NEWSMAC show last last night. This reporter

1580
01:34:46,479 --> 01:34:48,639
Speaker 2: she was a little fired up. And the reason why

1581
01:34:48,760 --> 01:34:51,320
Speaker 2: is I just asked a very simple question of one

1582
01:34:51,320 --> 01:34:54,679
Speaker 2: of the lawmakers. Has anybody been able to authenticate all

1583
01:34:54,680 --> 01:34:58,760
Speaker 2: of the information that Nick Shirley has uncovered? I mean,

1584
01:34:58,760 --> 01:35:00,960
Speaker 2: that's an important thing to do. We still have to

1585
01:35:01,000 --> 01:35:04,200
Speaker 2: do good journalism, no matter if you're on the Republican

1586
01:35:04,320 --> 01:35:07,479
Speaker 2: side or the Democrat side of the aisle, and some

1587
01:35:07,520 --> 01:35:11,520
Speaker 2: people get offended by that. Look, I have an obligation

1588
01:35:11,640 --> 01:35:14,280
Speaker 2: to you, my audience, to make sure that everything we

1589
01:35:14,400 --> 01:35:17,800
Speaker 2: present to you is accurate, and we will always do that.

1590
01:35:17,920 --> 01:35:20,960
Speaker 2: And if it irritates people, well, you know they'll get

1591
01:35:21,000 --> 01:35:47,720
Speaker 2: over it. We'll be right back. Got an email last

1592
01:35:47,800 --> 01:35:55,519
Speaker 2: night from one of our readers from the website. She

1593
01:35:55,760 --> 01:35:59,559
Speaker 2: had just purchased a copy of Twilight's Last Gleaming in

1594
01:35:59,600 --> 01:36:04,800
Speaker 2: America Be Saved and was really encouraged. She said it

1595
01:36:04,920 --> 01:36:07,559
Speaker 2: was a funny book, she said, but there was a

1596
01:36:07,560 --> 01:36:10,000
Speaker 2: lot of there was a lot of information that she

1597
01:36:10,120 --> 01:36:12,320
Speaker 2: was not aware of, and she came away from that

1598
01:36:12,400 --> 01:36:16,759
Speaker 2: book really really hopeful for America. And that's the big question,

1599
01:36:16,840 --> 01:36:19,840
Speaker 2: can America be saved? And I answer that question and

1600
01:36:19,840 --> 01:36:22,160
Speaker 2: the answer is yes, it can be saved. The question

1601
01:36:22,280 --> 01:36:25,400
Speaker 2: is are we willing to do the work necessary to

1602
01:36:25,560 --> 01:36:29,840
Speaker 2: save the country, And clearly President Trump is That's why

1603
01:36:29,880 --> 01:36:33,760
Speaker 2: he's working literally around the clock. This president. I've never

1604
01:36:33,800 --> 01:36:36,880
Speaker 2: seen anybody with a work ethic like Donald J. Trump.

1605
01:36:37,160 --> 01:36:39,839
Speaker 2: So anyway, I would encourage you to get a copy

1606
01:36:39,920 --> 01:36:44,240
Speaker 2: of Twilight's Laskally mean, Can America Be Saved? It's available Amazon,

1607
01:36:44,680 --> 01:36:47,439
Speaker 2: Barnes and Noble, wherever you get your books. You can

1608
01:36:47,560 --> 01:36:51,679
Speaker 2: order it online. Actually it is cheaper on Amazon fifteen

1609
01:36:51,840 --> 01:36:56,920
Speaker 2: twenty five for the hardcover edition. It came out last year,

1610
01:36:57,040 --> 01:37:00,559
Speaker 2: last March, and it has done incredibly well. And I

1611
01:37:00,600 --> 01:37:04,960
Speaker 2: think again it's it's a message that people need to hear.

1612
01:37:05,200 --> 01:37:07,320
Speaker 2: So be sure to get a copy of the Twilight's

1613
01:37:07,400 --> 01:37:10,280
Speaker 2: Las Gleaming. Can America Be Saved? Let's go to the

1614
01:37:10,280 --> 01:37:14,160
Speaker 2: phone lines Little Rock, Arkansas. Steve on the line, Hi Steve,

1615
01:37:14,200 --> 01:37:14,840
Speaker 2: what's going on?

1616
01:37:15,800 --> 01:37:20,080
Speaker 13: Hey, CAU. I want to connect a few conspiracy theory

1617
01:37:20,240 --> 01:37:26,479
Speaker 13: dots here. It seems like the Democrat Party, uh the

1618
01:37:26,560 --> 01:37:31,120
Speaker 13: last through this the two thousands Canada, they picked their

1619
01:37:31,160 --> 01:37:35,360
Speaker 13: presidential candidate based on bi They got to be the

1620
01:37:35,439 --> 01:37:39,799
Speaker 13: right race like gender writer Alica. But their vice president

1621
01:37:39,880 --> 01:37:43,479
Speaker 13: candidate seems to be the person who's the top grifter.

1622
01:37:43,800 --> 01:37:50,000
Speaker 13: They can fat Uh do you think uh Commala's choice

1623
01:37:50,040 --> 01:37:53,160
Speaker 13: of Tim Wallas, which at the time she was picked

1624
01:37:53,200 --> 01:37:56,599
Speaker 13: nobody could figure out once she picked this gap over

1625
01:37:56,720 --> 01:37:59,760
Speaker 13: where decome from. It may have been as all this

1626
01:38:00,520 --> 01:38:04,400
Speaker 13: money he was kind of had access to in Minnesota,

1627
01:38:05,120 --> 01:38:08,800
Speaker 13: just like when Obama picked Baden back in Oh wait,

1628
01:38:08,960 --> 01:38:11,479
Speaker 13: everybody kind of alone. You picked that old white man

1629
01:38:11,600 --> 01:38:14,200
Speaker 13: for well, come find out that old white man you

1630
01:38:14,320 --> 01:38:17,240
Speaker 13: were how to get hold of the big bucks out

1631
01:38:17,240 --> 01:38:19,080
Speaker 13: of China and all this stuff.

1632
01:38:20,640 --> 01:38:24,280
Speaker 2: That's true, and there was another reason why when it

1633
01:38:24,320 --> 01:38:26,920
Speaker 2: came to Obama and Biden and they needed a white

1634
01:38:26,920 --> 01:38:29,439
Speaker 2: guy on the ticket, so you know, just to kind

1635
01:38:29,439 --> 01:38:31,840
Speaker 2: of and that was part of their that was part

1636
01:38:31,880 --> 01:38:34,920
Speaker 2: of the rationale. They're thinking, you know they're The calculus

1637
01:38:34,960 --> 01:38:37,080
Speaker 2: they did is that, oh, we need we need an

1638
01:38:37,760 --> 01:38:40,920
Speaker 2: established white dude on the ticket to put everybody's minds

1639
01:38:40,920 --> 01:38:43,800
Speaker 2: at these I'm not kidding you. That was actually one

1640
01:38:43,840 --> 01:38:47,960
Speaker 2: of the reasons why the Democrats did that, and Steve

1641
01:38:48,080 --> 01:38:51,320
Speaker 2: I would not put it past them to have done

1642
01:38:51,320 --> 01:38:55,760
Speaker 2: the same thing with Kamala and Tim Waltz the but

1643
01:38:56,080 --> 01:38:59,599
Speaker 2: that is an interesting thought because he certainly does nowhere

1644
01:38:59,680 --> 01:39:02,680
Speaker 2: all the grift is. So it could be. It could be.

1645
01:39:03,760 --> 01:39:07,519
Speaker 13: I remember when they announced Kamala, I mean, the Democrat

1646
01:39:07,680 --> 01:39:12,280
Speaker 13: Party was broke, and then all of a sudden, almost overnight,

1647
01:39:12,400 --> 01:39:16,200
Speaker 13: they just raised hundreds of millions of dollars just came

1648
01:39:16,280 --> 01:39:19,639
Speaker 13: pouring in. Then a few days later they announced him

1649
01:39:19,760 --> 01:39:25,360
Speaker 13: wats And as far as the Baden Bill, here's my pay.

1650
01:39:25,880 --> 01:39:28,919
Speaker 13: I think when the Clinton's with the Washington in the nineties,

1651
01:39:29,439 --> 01:39:32,400
Speaker 13: they asked, because I saw how they operated in Arkansas,

1652
01:39:32,400 --> 01:39:35,479
Speaker 13: they asked, WHEO do we need to get with to

1653
01:39:36,520 --> 01:39:39,679
Speaker 13: get our hands on the money, And everybody told them

1654
01:39:39,760 --> 01:39:43,000
Speaker 13: Joe Biden's the guy you need to talk to. And

1655
01:39:43,080 --> 01:39:45,880
Speaker 13: I think Joe Biden set the Clintons up and showed

1656
01:39:45,920 --> 01:39:49,600
Speaker 13: them how to run the game and then his payback

1657
01:39:49,800 --> 01:39:53,559
Speaker 13: was when Barack Obama came along. The Clint was stepped

1658
01:39:53,560 --> 01:39:55,599
Speaker 13: in there and said, this is this is the gay

1659
01:39:55,720 --> 01:39:58,160
Speaker 13: you need. He took care of us, He'll take care

1660
01:39:58,160 --> 01:39:58,759
Speaker 13: of you.

1661
01:40:00,360 --> 01:40:04,960
Speaker 2: All right, Steve, appreciate the call. Good thought there. Nine

1662
01:40:04,960 --> 01:40:07,920
Speaker 2: oh one two six zero five, nine two six. That's

1663
01:40:08,080 --> 01:40:13,519
Speaker 2: nine oh one two six zero five nine two six. So, Dylan,

1664
01:40:13,600 --> 01:40:18,320
Speaker 2: the nil controversy is getting even louder, and there are

1665
01:40:18,479 --> 01:40:23,679
Speaker 2: calls really across all of college sports for the president,

1666
01:40:23,800 --> 01:40:26,640
Speaker 2: for Congress to step in and to deal with this,

1667
01:40:27,560 --> 01:40:32,320
Speaker 2: and there are it's really a shame what's happening here.

1668
01:40:32,640 --> 01:40:35,000
Speaker 2: But I want to play we yesterday we played some

1669
01:40:35,040 --> 01:40:38,439
Speaker 2: audio from coach Calipari, who was Cali Peri rather, who

1670
01:40:38,479 --> 01:40:44,920
Speaker 2: is at Arkansas, and he says, we've got to fix

1671
01:40:45,000 --> 01:40:47,600
Speaker 2: this cut number eleven.

1672
01:40:48,280 --> 01:40:52,800
Speaker 5: Well, look, I don't blame coaches. You know, I've got

1673
01:40:52,840 --> 01:40:55,000
Speaker 5: friends that are playing with twenty seven year olds and

1674
01:40:55,040 --> 01:40:58,000
Speaker 5: they feel bad. I said, don't feel bad. We don't

1675
01:40:58,000 --> 01:41:00,679
Speaker 5: have any rules. Why why should you you feel bad?

1676
01:41:00,680 --> 01:41:05,320
Speaker 5: But let me give you this real simple. The rules

1677
01:41:05,920 --> 01:41:09,920
Speaker 5: bes the rules. So if you put your name in

1678
01:41:10,000 --> 01:41:14,000
Speaker 5: the draft, I don't care if you're from Russia and

1679
01:41:14,040 --> 01:41:17,720
Speaker 5: you stay in the draft, you can't play college basketball.

1680
01:41:18,040 --> 01:41:23,080
Speaker 5: Well that's only for American kids. What if your name

1681
01:41:23,160 --> 01:41:27,360
Speaker 5: is in that draft and you got drafted, you can't

1682
01:41:27,360 --> 01:41:30,080
Speaker 5: play cup because that's our rule. Yeah, but that's only

1683
01:41:30,120 --> 01:41:37,200
Speaker 5: for American kids. Okay, Okay, Now here's the next lawsuit. Well,

1684
01:41:37,240 --> 01:41:41,080
Speaker 5: we don't have a say over European players. You do

1685
01:41:41,200 --> 01:41:44,439
Speaker 5: if they're playing in college basketball. So that means you

1686
01:41:44,479 --> 01:41:47,679
Speaker 5: don't have a say over high school kids. So whatever

1687
01:41:47,720 --> 01:41:50,639
Speaker 5: a high school kid does before he comes here, don't

1688
01:41:50,680 --> 01:41:51,759
Speaker 5: you do one thing.

1689
01:41:51,640 --> 01:41:52,679
Speaker 2: Because there's a suit.

1690
01:41:53,040 --> 01:41:57,320
Speaker 5: Because what you're saying is, if he's in Europe, we

1691
01:41:57,400 --> 01:41:58,840
Speaker 5: don't have the same rules.

1692
01:41:59,280 --> 01:42:01,639
Speaker 4: What if he puts his.

1693
01:42:01,680 --> 01:42:06,040
Speaker 5: Name in the draft, he can't go to college he

1694
01:42:06,120 --> 01:42:09,599
Speaker 5: left his name in, Well that's different because he's European. Okay,

1695
01:42:10,040 --> 01:42:12,840
Speaker 5: you're not doing anything with a high school player. Then

1696
01:42:13,479 --> 01:42:15,960
Speaker 5: we don't have any jurisdiction over a high school player,

1697
01:42:16,000 --> 01:42:21,400
Speaker 5: do we We don't, So when they come you just

1698
01:42:21,439 --> 01:42:22,960
Speaker 5: got to say, all right, now they're here.

1699
01:42:24,920 --> 01:42:28,240
Speaker 2: So he's complaining because the players, Dylan are getting older

1700
01:42:28,280 --> 01:42:31,920
Speaker 2: and older and older. I mean it's like, come on, guys.

1701
01:42:32,280 --> 01:42:35,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, the transfer of portal has essentially made it to

1702
01:42:36,000 --> 01:42:38,160
Speaker 4: where you can you're an eighteen year old and you

1703
01:42:38,160 --> 01:42:41,160
Speaker 4: can play against like a father of four that's just

1704
01:42:41,280 --> 01:42:45,639
Speaker 4: like taller, stronger, more, you know, experienced in the league.

1705
01:42:45,960 --> 01:42:50,120
Speaker 4: He's also talking about just the fact that in Europe

1706
01:42:50,240 --> 01:42:53,439
Speaker 4: you can go pro. Basically you can be drafted into

1707
01:42:53,520 --> 01:42:56,240
Speaker 4: the NBA. You can play pro over elite, over the

1708
01:42:56,280 --> 01:43:00,280
Speaker 4: seas and still be eligible to play college basketball, which

1709
01:43:00,360 --> 01:43:03,240
Speaker 4: makes it just completely unfair, like you're playing against a

1710
01:43:03,280 --> 01:43:06,280
Speaker 4: pro player at that point, and it's just yeah, there's

1711
01:43:06,320 --> 01:43:06,880
Speaker 4: no rules.

1712
01:43:07,240 --> 01:43:10,479
Speaker 2: Yeah no, here's here's Matt Painter talking about this as well.

1713
01:43:10,479 --> 01:43:11,280
Speaker 2: Cut number nine.

1714
01:43:12,240 --> 01:43:14,040
Speaker 20: Yeah, we just want to know the rules so we

1715
01:43:14,080 --> 01:43:16,840
Speaker 20: can abide by them, like we don't. We don't know

1716
01:43:16,840 --> 01:43:19,800
Speaker 20: what's going on. So that that's what I would say,

1717
01:43:19,840 --> 01:43:21,920
Speaker 20: Like we need some leadership, We need someone to step

1718
01:43:22,000 --> 01:43:25,040
Speaker 20: up and like here's how it's ran, here's name, image

1719
01:43:25,040 --> 01:43:28,040
Speaker 20: and likeness, here's the transfer situation, like whatever. Like we

1720
01:43:28,080 --> 01:43:31,479
Speaker 20: can go on to all these different examples and give

1721
01:43:31,520 --> 01:43:33,840
Speaker 20: us the rules, we'll abide by them, you know, because

1722
01:43:33,880 --> 01:43:35,880
Speaker 20: that's who the rules are for. The rules aren't for

1723
01:43:35,880 --> 01:43:37,479
Speaker 20: the people who cheat. The rules are for the people

1724
01:43:37,520 --> 01:43:41,120
Speaker 20: that abide by them. And so like that's where this

1725
01:43:41,280 --> 01:43:45,240
Speaker 20: is all goes down and there's no communication, like we

1726
01:43:45,600 --> 01:43:47,160
Speaker 20: just want to know, like tell us what to tell

1727
01:43:47,240 --> 01:43:49,040
Speaker 20: us what to do, tell us how to go about it,

1728
01:43:49,520 --> 01:43:51,519
Speaker 20: and then like you know, we'll go from there. And

1729
01:43:51,560 --> 01:43:53,880
Speaker 20: it's just there's just a lot of gray area right now.

1730
01:43:54,840 --> 01:43:58,760
Speaker 2: I mean, it's and it's basketball, it's football. I will say.

1731
01:43:58,880 --> 01:44:01,960
Speaker 2: I will say this, Delan, when you look at what's

1732
01:44:02,000 --> 01:44:05,080
Speaker 2: been happening to some of these Oh what was it

1733
01:44:05,200 --> 01:44:08,479
Speaker 2: a North Texas and there was another school James Madison.

1734
01:44:08,520 --> 01:44:12,799
Speaker 2: I think the entire starting lineup just left. They're gone.

1735
01:44:13,120 --> 01:44:15,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, And why wouldn't you, like, if you're a player

1736
01:44:16,280 --> 01:44:18,960
Speaker 4: and this is the game now, because it's all a game,

1737
01:44:19,320 --> 01:44:21,720
Speaker 4: why wouldn't you go to a school that's offering you

1738
01:44:21,760 --> 01:44:24,639
Speaker 4: more money? I mean that's the whole point of NIL

1739
01:44:24,720 --> 01:44:26,760
Speaker 4: in the first place, is you want to be represented

1740
01:44:27,120 --> 01:44:29,360
Speaker 4: and you want to like, you know, receive credit for

1741
01:44:29,400 --> 01:44:31,559
Speaker 4: the good work that you do. And now it's turned

1742
01:44:31,560 --> 01:44:35,400
Speaker 4: into this pay for play, like, Hey, I'm Alabama and

1743
01:44:35,439 --> 01:44:38,320
Speaker 4: I'll give you well, not Alabama saying this, but Alabama

1744
01:44:38,400 --> 01:44:41,800
Speaker 4: saying I can offer you these NIL contracts that can

1745
01:44:41,880 --> 01:44:45,759
Speaker 4: potentially get you millions. There's no it's a no brainer

1746
01:44:45,880 --> 01:44:49,160
Speaker 4: for these players in Power five conferences, and it makes

1747
01:44:49,200 --> 01:44:52,320
Speaker 4: everybody else suffer because you're only going to see the

1748
01:44:52,320 --> 01:44:55,880
Speaker 4: top schools in the playoffs and then you know, it's boring.

1749
01:44:56,320 --> 01:44:58,200
Speaker 2: I think all the other schools go away. I think

1750
01:44:58,240 --> 01:45:01,880
Speaker 2: you're going to see universities ending their football programs because

1751
01:45:01,880 --> 01:45:04,320
Speaker 2: those are very expensive. You're not going to be able

1752
01:45:04,360 --> 01:45:07,479
Speaker 2: to compete. I mean not everybody's got Bill Gates money, right,

1753
01:45:07,479 --> 01:45:08,919
Speaker 2: And that's what we're talking about.

1754
01:45:08,680 --> 01:45:13,719
Speaker 4: It exactly, and like, well, my opinion is to open

1755
01:45:13,760 --> 01:45:17,519
Speaker 4: the playoffs more like a March Madness style and just

1756
01:45:17,560 --> 01:45:19,839
Speaker 4: give it, give them a chance because at this point

1757
01:45:20,120 --> 01:45:24,320
Speaker 4: you're just you're out buying the players that are top level,

1758
01:45:24,760 --> 01:45:27,400
Speaker 4: and these high school recruits are not even given a

1759
01:45:27,439 --> 01:45:29,840
Speaker 4: shot anymore because the transfer portal has just given all

1760
01:45:29,880 --> 01:45:32,479
Speaker 4: these juniors and seniors to the top schools. No one

1761
01:45:32,479 --> 01:45:33,400
Speaker 4: else has a chance.

1762
01:45:33,720 --> 01:45:36,880
Speaker 2: Right now. You could play college football at four different

1763
01:45:36,880 --> 01:45:39,599
Speaker 2: schools over the course of your career, or maybe even

1764
01:45:39,640 --> 01:45:43,400
Speaker 2: five or six. And I mean, again, you're not getting

1765
01:45:43,439 --> 01:45:46,880
Speaker 2: an education that I mean right, I mean, that's the

1766
01:45:46,920 --> 01:45:49,080
Speaker 2: whole point of college sports is you're supposed to be

1767
01:45:49,120 --> 01:45:49,960
Speaker 2: getting an education.

1768
01:45:50,479 --> 01:45:53,160
Speaker 4: Yep, and you're coming out of there. You're twenty seven

1769
01:45:53,200 --> 01:45:56,400
Speaker 4: years old, twenty six years old, and you're not going pro.

1770
01:45:56,800 --> 01:45:59,360
Speaker 4: I mean, what's there left to do? Like that's all

1771
01:45:59,400 --> 01:45:59,920
Speaker 4: that there is.

1772
01:46:00,439 --> 01:46:03,880
Speaker 2: I love this coach, the Rutgers had football coach. He

1773
01:46:04,000 --> 01:46:05,880
Speaker 2: was doing a Q and A with the press and

1774
01:46:05,920 --> 01:46:07,960
Speaker 2: here's what here's what he had to say about it

1775
01:46:08,000 --> 01:46:08,400
Speaker 2: cut ted.

1776
01:46:09,200 --> 01:46:11,280
Speaker 19: A lot of teams have been adding guys or pursuing

1777
01:46:11,280 --> 01:46:12,479
Speaker 19: guys mid season.

1778
01:46:12,680 --> 01:46:13,200
Speaker 21: Yeah, let's go.

1779
01:46:13,280 --> 01:46:14,760
Speaker 2: You got anybody for me, let's go.

1780
01:46:14,800 --> 01:46:16,120
Speaker 21: You got any eligibility left?

1781
01:46:16,160 --> 01:46:17,240
Speaker 4: I have four years, I don't care.

1782
01:46:17,760 --> 01:46:19,599
Speaker 21: Let's put it in. Let's see if we can get

1783
01:46:19,640 --> 01:46:20,720
Speaker 21: you some eligibility here.

1784
01:46:20,720 --> 01:46:22,599
Speaker 5: I don't know if that's a good idea.

1785
01:46:22,720 --> 01:46:24,280
Speaker 4: Are you pursuing anybody.

1786
01:46:23,920 --> 01:46:26,320
Speaker 21: Or yeah, you have to whoever's out there, you try

1787
01:46:26,320 --> 01:46:29,120
Speaker 21: to pursue, you know, like it's a weird world.

1788
01:46:30,760 --> 01:46:30,960
Speaker 3: You know.

1789
01:46:31,120 --> 01:46:32,960
Speaker 21: I'd like to get a thirty six year old with

1790
01:46:33,040 --> 01:46:35,519
Speaker 21: four kids and hungry for a job. I'd like to

1791
01:46:35,520 --> 01:46:37,000
Speaker 21: get one of those guys. We'll see if one of

1792
01:46:37,000 --> 01:46:41,360
Speaker 21: those guys is available. But yeah, I mean you got

1793
01:46:41,360 --> 01:46:45,439
Speaker 21: to pursue, you know, any lead that you have on anybody,

1794
01:46:45,520 --> 01:46:47,840
Speaker 21: and then I'd go through all the steps to try

1795
01:46:47,880 --> 01:46:49,519
Speaker 21: to make it happen.

1796
01:46:49,560 --> 01:46:51,720
Speaker 2: It's very complex. Sure, as we.

1797
01:46:51,640 --> 01:46:53,760
Speaker 4: Sit here right now, if you anticipate adding anybody, I.

1798
01:46:53,720 --> 01:46:54,360
Speaker 2: Hope, I hope.

1799
01:46:54,360 --> 01:46:56,360
Speaker 21: I'll keep your fingers crossed, all right, you'll be the

1800
01:46:56,360 --> 01:46:57,000
Speaker 21: first one to know.

1801
01:46:57,080 --> 01:46:59,080
Speaker 2: All Right, enough of that, I want to I want

1802
01:46:59,080 --> 01:47:01,000
Speaker 2: to go back to Dylan. I mean, the guy was

1803
01:47:01,400 --> 01:47:03,720
Speaker 2: I think he was joking, but I think it was

1804
01:47:03,760 --> 01:47:04,639
Speaker 2: also serious.

1805
01:47:04,960 --> 01:47:07,360
Speaker 4: I mean, that's that's like the only option you have. Yeah,

1806
01:47:07,360 --> 01:47:10,439
Speaker 4: if there's no rules, I mean, you just got to

1807
01:47:10,439 --> 01:47:12,760
Speaker 4: go and find the best possible player you can, no

1808
01:47:12,800 --> 01:47:13,880
Speaker 4: matter where you find him.

1809
01:47:14,040 --> 01:47:16,320
Speaker 2: And that's and honestly, those are the kinds of players

1810
01:47:16,360 --> 01:47:17,760
Speaker 2: you would want on your team.

1811
01:47:18,400 --> 01:47:21,559
Speaker 4: Right Fortunately, But like if I'm an eighteen year old

1812
01:47:21,600 --> 01:47:25,719
Speaker 4: in high school and I'm seeing like father, Grandpa, that's

1813
01:47:25,760 --> 01:47:29,519
Speaker 4: like the starting point guard. I'm feeling so discouraged, like

1814
01:47:29,560 --> 01:47:32,800
Speaker 4: I'm not even grown yet, and there's just no chance

1815
01:47:32,800 --> 01:47:34,519
Speaker 4: for me to even get on the team, much less

1816
01:47:34,560 --> 01:47:35,759
Speaker 4: play if I'm on it.

1817
01:47:35,760 --> 01:47:39,240
Speaker 2: It's just like if I'm coaching in the WNBA, I'm

1818
01:47:39,240 --> 01:47:43,160
Speaker 2: going for every transgender athlete out there there, you go, right,

1819
01:47:43,280 --> 01:47:46,559
Speaker 2: I mean, you want the winning advantage you've got to take.

1820
01:47:46,680 --> 01:47:48,479
Speaker 2: I mean, these are the rules, and you're hearing these

1821
01:47:48,479 --> 01:47:51,400
Speaker 2: coaches over and over and over again. But lost in

1822
01:47:51,479 --> 01:47:54,479
Speaker 2: all of this are the fans. And the fans are screwed.

1823
01:47:54,920 --> 01:47:56,879
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, they've got nobody to cheer.

1824
01:47:56,680 --> 01:47:59,120
Speaker 4: For, unless you've already been cheering for those top teams.

1825
01:47:59,200 --> 01:48:03,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, and even then, I just again, how do we

1826
01:48:03,120 --> 01:48:03,840
Speaker 2: fix all of this?

1827
01:48:04,439 --> 01:48:07,680
Speaker 4: Yeah? I think the rules and the regulations have to

1828
01:48:07,720 --> 01:48:10,680
Speaker 4: be set in place, and not only that, they have

1829
01:48:10,720 --> 01:48:13,920
Speaker 4: to be enforced. And I know recruiting is so complicated,

1830
01:48:14,080 --> 01:48:18,040
Speaker 4: just how it happens, Like coaches can just text players

1831
01:48:18,080 --> 01:48:20,840
Speaker 4: and say anything they want, but something has to be

1832
01:48:20,880 --> 01:48:23,240
Speaker 4: in place where you're like, you can't do that, you

1833
01:48:23,280 --> 01:48:26,160
Speaker 4: can't do under the table, you know, little deals and

1834
01:48:26,439 --> 01:48:29,559
Speaker 4: all this stuff. And yeah, I mean you have to

1835
01:48:29,680 --> 01:48:32,559
Speaker 4: enforce something or else. It's just it's already out of hand.

1836
01:48:32,840 --> 01:48:34,559
Speaker 4: But we've got to bring it back to a scale

1837
01:48:34,600 --> 01:48:37,800
Speaker 4: where it's enjoyable for players to play the game, get

1838
01:48:37,840 --> 01:48:41,880
Speaker 4: an education, first of all, and for fans to stick

1839
01:48:41,960 --> 01:48:45,120
Speaker 4: with a team that they've been loyal to for years

1840
01:48:45,439 --> 01:48:45,960
Speaker 4: and so now.

1841
01:48:46,040 --> 01:48:49,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, but if you're paying somebody, you're paying a let's

1842
01:48:49,120 --> 01:48:51,400
Speaker 2: just say you're paying you know, a football player. I

1843
01:48:51,479 --> 01:48:54,000
Speaker 2: don't know just on average is And by the way,

1844
01:48:54,120 --> 01:48:56,320
Speaker 2: is everybody on the team getting paid or these just

1845
01:48:56,400 --> 01:48:57,920
Speaker 2: the big high profile I.

1846
01:48:57,960 --> 01:49:01,400
Speaker 4: Mean at this point, most players are paid something because

1847
01:49:01,479 --> 01:49:02,519
Speaker 4: that's just the name of the game.

1848
01:49:02,560 --> 01:49:04,200
Speaker 2: So let's just say, and I don't know how much

1849
01:49:04,200 --> 01:49:05,439
Speaker 2: how much did it cost for you to go to

1850
01:49:05,479 --> 01:49:05,960
Speaker 2: U of them?

1851
01:49:06,439 --> 01:49:10,719
Speaker 4: Oh? I don't remember. It's a couple thousand dollars a semester.

1852
01:49:10,880 --> 01:49:12,960
Speaker 2: Okay, So let's just say these kids are getting what

1853
01:49:13,040 --> 01:49:15,160
Speaker 2: fifty one hundred thousand dollars a year? They're getting a

1854
01:49:15,200 --> 01:49:17,479
Speaker 2: check one hundred and fifty thousand dollars a year paycheck

1855
01:49:17,800 --> 01:49:20,360
Speaker 2: to play college ball. I say, they don't get a

1856
01:49:20,360 --> 01:49:23,519
Speaker 2: free education. They got to pay that money. Why because

1857
01:49:23,560 --> 01:49:25,800
Speaker 2: the taxpayers, you and I are having to foot the

1858
01:49:25,840 --> 01:49:30,880
Speaker 2: bill for for a degree they're not even going to

1859
01:49:30,920 --> 01:49:31,679
Speaker 2: class to get.

1860
01:49:32,160 --> 01:49:37,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, and coach Caler Perry actually mentioned the transfer His

1861
01:49:37,640 --> 01:49:40,000
Speaker 4: idea for like the transferring is you have to sit

1862
01:49:40,080 --> 01:49:43,799
Speaker 4: out a whole year before you play in an actual game.

1863
01:49:44,200 --> 01:49:46,320
Speaker 4: And I thought that was a good idea to start with,

1864
01:49:46,880 --> 01:49:48,920
Speaker 4: just something where it's like you can't just come here

1865
01:49:49,040 --> 01:49:51,720
Speaker 4: get paid and then leave the next year because you're

1866
01:49:51,760 --> 01:49:53,480
Speaker 4: just leaving everybody else out.

1867
01:49:53,800 --> 01:49:56,679
Speaker 2: I just it's just beyond me why we have grown

1868
01:49:56,760 --> 01:50:00,880
Speaker 2: men who cannot understand what is happening here one of

1869
01:50:00,920 --> 01:50:06,200
Speaker 2: our cherished things, which is college sports, and especially march madness.

1870
01:50:06,280 --> 01:50:08,559
Speaker 2: I'm a big football guy, but you know, March madness

1871
01:50:08,600 --> 01:50:11,920
Speaker 2: rolls around everybody. You know, everybody does the brackets. That's

1872
01:50:11,960 --> 01:50:15,120
Speaker 2: all going away. Yeah, people are you're going to have

1873
01:50:15,200 --> 01:50:19,160
Speaker 2: I mean, we're spending tens of millions of dollars renovating stadiums.

1874
01:50:19,200 --> 01:50:21,320
Speaker 2: Those stadiums are going to be empty in a few years.

1875
01:50:21,760 --> 01:50:25,040
Speaker 2: I just don't see this as being sustainable. Yeah, got

1876
01:50:25,040 --> 01:50:27,439
Speaker 2: to bring it back, get everybody in a I would

1877
01:50:27,479 --> 01:50:30,479
Speaker 2: just at this point, I would just pay everybody a

1878
01:50:30,680 --> 01:50:35,000
Speaker 2: set amount and they got to go to college, they

1879
01:50:35,000 --> 01:50:36,519
Speaker 2: got to go to class, they got to keep a

1880
01:50:36,520 --> 01:50:41,360
Speaker 2: certain grade point average, and they can't transfer. You take

1881
01:50:41,400 --> 01:50:43,720
Speaker 2: that money, you're locked into that school for four years

1882
01:50:43,800 --> 01:50:44,960
Speaker 2: unless your coach leaves.

1883
01:50:45,080 --> 01:50:48,559
Speaker 4: I like that idea, because nil in itself is not

1884
01:50:48,640 --> 01:50:52,360
Speaker 4: a bad idea. I mean, like compensating these players for

1885
01:50:52,479 --> 01:50:55,000
Speaker 4: putting them, you know, their whole careers on the line.

1886
01:50:55,000 --> 01:50:57,040
Speaker 4: They're putting their bodies on the line all this stuff.

1887
01:50:57,200 --> 01:51:00,240
Speaker 4: That's great, they're getting compensated for it, but it's too far.

1888
01:51:00,920 --> 01:51:03,040
Speaker 4: They have to, you know, stay at the school, just

1889
01:51:03,720 --> 01:51:06,120
Speaker 4: have some school pride. The fans are there for you.

1890
01:51:06,200 --> 01:51:07,960
Speaker 4: They're not there just for anything.

1891
01:51:08,720 --> 01:51:10,840
Speaker 2: And and and that pride has gone. And I'll just

1892
01:51:11,120 --> 01:51:14,519
Speaker 2: use University of Memphis as an example. The average age

1893
01:51:14,520 --> 01:51:16,280
Speaker 2: of the fan base is what in their fifties and

1894
01:51:16,360 --> 01:51:20,240
Speaker 2: sixties old, hardly any young people. And part of that

1895
01:51:20,360 --> 01:51:23,160
Speaker 2: is most of the University of Memphis they're foreign students.

1896
01:51:23,479 --> 01:51:25,879
Speaker 2: You know, they don't they don't like American sports.

1897
01:51:25,920 --> 01:51:26,479
Speaker 4: It's a good point.

1898
01:51:26,640 --> 01:51:29,000
Speaker 2: I mean, if you had a cricket team, okay, maybe.

1899
01:51:29,000 --> 01:51:31,240
Speaker 4: Cricket would go crazy at Memphis.

1900
01:51:32,280 --> 01:51:35,000
Speaker 2: It's a shocking and our back to our tax dollars

1901
01:51:35,000 --> 01:51:38,720
Speaker 2: are paying for all of this. Unbelievable. All right, We're

1902
01:51:38,720 --> 01:51:41,080
Speaker 2: going to keep an eye on this. This goes down,

1903
01:51:41,240 --> 01:51:44,240
Speaker 2: This goes back to the culture of America. Rush Limbaugh

1904
01:51:44,920 --> 01:51:50,959
Speaker 2: predicted years ago that the left would destroy our beloved sports,

1905
01:51:51,520 --> 01:51:54,160
Speaker 2: and we are watching it happen in real time. Gotta

1906
01:51:54,200 --> 01:51:57,800
Speaker 2: take a break, we'll be right back. He's not bitter,

1907

Speaker 2: on the Republican side. And I do hope, because well

1926

Speaker 2: I hope that Lindell is going to be able to

1927
01:53:22,520 --> 01:53:26,160
