That's something really 25 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 3: a tradition that Rush Limbaugh started at the noon to 26 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 3: three hour, and it is a tradition that we are continuing. 27 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,960 Speaker 3: You know what's interesting, someone told me Dylan a couple 28 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 3: of what is a couple of weeks ago, it turns 29 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 3: out that our program is now the longest running noon 30 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 3: to three show since since the passing of Rush Limbaughs. 31 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 3: So we're very honored that. Again, we don't we don't 32 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 3: step out to take jobs somewhere else, or we don't 33 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 3: step away away from radio to do TV. We have 34 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 3: always been from day one. We've always been a radio program. 35 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 3: That is the most important thing we do. And I 36 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,839 Speaker 3: love radio. And you know, a lot of people always say, well, 37 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 3: you know, talk radio, it's you know, radio is dead, AM, 38 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 3: radio is dying. No, that is simply not true. As 39 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:22,639 Speaker 3: a matter of fact, when you look at a lot 40 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 3: of the industry news surrounding a radio, you will find 41 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 3: that radio is just as strong today. And many people 42 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 3: are getting a little weary of all the podcasts and 43 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 3: they're loving to go there. They're they're they're going old school, 44 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 3: and by old school, they're returning to the roots of 45 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,959 Speaker 3: radio where people can call in and have a conversation. 46 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 3: You can scream at the radio host. I don't want 47 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 3: you to do that pod diving. You know if you 48 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 3: if you disagree with something I say, well every now 49 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 3: and again, you know that's that that happens. But all 50 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 3: that to say is that I love radio and it 51 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 3: really bothers me when you've got these folks and they've 52 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 3: got the huge social media following. Said. Look, don't get 53 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 3: me wrong, we've got a huge we have a huge 54 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 3: social media following. But you know who I'm talking about. 55 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 3: I don't like naming names, but they use the platform 56 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 3: and then they toss it away because they're like, oh, 57 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 3: I want I've got to get on TV. No, you 58 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 3: really don't. You really don't need to have an in. 59 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 3: You can make an impact by doing what we do 60 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 3: here on the radio. And that's one of the reasons 61 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 3: why I especially love the locally owned radio stations, and 62 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 3: I hope you guys, if you live in a community 63 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 3: where you have a locally owned news talk radio station, 64 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 3: you should do whatever you can to help support that 65 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 3: radio station. And it doesn't matter if it's volunteering or 66 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 3: helping drum up advertising, because you have something that is precious. 67 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 3: A lot of these corporate radio stations. All you hear 68 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 3: is syndicated programming, and there's nothing wrong with syndicated programming. 69 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 3: You don't have any local news, you don't have any 70 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:03,119 Speaker 3: local weather, you don't have any local traffic. And that's 71 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 3: a problem, right, You've got to have you have to 72 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 3: have a local component to what you do, and we're 73 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 3: able to do that as the owners of locally owned, 74 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 3: locally operated radio stations. So thank you so much for 75 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 3: all of that. All right, our telephone number again open 76 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,720 Speaker 3: live Friday.

Well, now 85 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 3: we're starting to get a lot of the backstory, and 86 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 3: let me it's important for you to hear this from me. 87 00:04:55,960 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 3: We love President Trump, We love President Trump's agenda. It 88 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 3: is a winning agenda, and that has been proven time 89 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 3: and time again. The challenge that President Trump has is 90 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 3: that not everyone on board in the administration is actually 91 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 3: on board with that agenda. Now they may smile and 92 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 3: nod and say yes, mister President, but as soon as 93 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 3: the President leaves the room, will they turn around and 94 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 3: they stab the president in the back, or or they 95 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 3: take advantage of their platforms to advance their own agenda. 96 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,160 Speaker 3: And we've said this from day one, the day that 97 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 3: Donald J. Trump got elected to his third term in office, 98 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 3: the day that happened, I said on this very radio 99 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:47,840 Speaker 3: program that the most important thing was getting the president's 100 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 3: agenda across the finish line. That's it. Nothing else, nothing 101 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 3: else matters, nothing else. Marco Rubio gets that. Marco Rubio, 102 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 3: every single day is out there delivering on the President 103 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 3: Trump's agenda. By the way, so is Pete Hegseth. And 104 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 3: as a result of that, they're getting great press. Be 105 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 3: caught well, well theoretically they should be getting great press. 106 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 3: They're getting great press from us, but the media hates them. 107 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 3: But still they're doing the job that President Trump asked 108 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 3: them to do. They're not out there grandstanding, you know, 109 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 3: Marco Rubio. He understands his place in the great scheme 110 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,720 Speaker 3: of things. He's got one, eight or nine jobs now. 111 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:30,480 Speaker 3: And the President loves joking about that, because the President 112 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 3: when he sees Marco, when he sees Pete heg Saith, 113 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 3: when he sees those men, these are men that are 114 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 3: very comfortable in their own skin. They understand their job. 115 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 3: And the job is not Pete Hegseth. The job is 116 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:48,600 Speaker 3: not Marco Rubio. The job is advancing Trump's agenda. Christine 117 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 3: Home didn't get that, and by the way, Pam BONDI, 118 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 3: sure as heck doesn't get it. But right now we're 119 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 3: going to talk about christin Home because there's something going 120 00:06:57,920 --> 00:06:59,919 Speaker 3: on behind the scenes that you need to be a 121 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 3: were up and it's it's going to be a challenge. 122 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 3: And here's my question for you, and this is and 123 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 3: I hope that we got some calls people people answering 124 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 3: this specific question. Do you support the president's deportation plan 125 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 3: and the president's deportation plan is everybody who is here 126 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 3: illegally has to leave everybody, that's the plan, or do 127 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 3: you believe there should be some carve ounce because the 128 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 3: car ounts I believe are coming and I say that 129 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 3: because Mark Wayne Mullen, who is the Senator from Oklahoma, 130 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 3: he is a little soft. I'm not saying totally soft, 131 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 3: but he is a little soft on immigration. And it 132 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 3: goes back to a conversation you have with Brian Kilmead, 133 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 3: and we've got that audio and we're going to play 134 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 3: that audio in just a moment. But the challenge here 135 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 3: with christin no First of all, she wasn't doing what 136 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 3: President Trump had and the White House wanted her to do. 137 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 3: No mis firing back, and we're going to get to 138 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 3: her side of the story. But a couple of things. 139 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 3: Everything went south after this Senate hearing, and it was 140 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 3: a contentious hearing. We told you about Tom Tellis, who 141 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 3: was just really inappropriate. But John Kennedy, the Senator from Movisiana, 142 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 3: actually asked a very legitimate question about an advertising campaign 143 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 3: that Christy Nome had had filmed and then used your 144 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 3: tax dollars two hundred and twenty million dollars. Take a 145 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 3: listen to Senator Kennedy, how. 146 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 5: Do you square that concern for waste which I share 147 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 5: with the fact that you have spent two hundred and 148 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:58,679 Speaker 5: twenty million dollars running television advertisements that feature you prominently. 149 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:00,199 Speaker 3: Sure. 150 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 6: The President tasked me with getting the message out to 151 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 6: the country and to other countries where we were seeing 152 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 6: the invasion come from, with putting commercials out that told 153 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 6: them that if they were in this country illegally, that 154 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 6: they needed to leave or we would detain them and 155 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 6: remove them, and they did not get the chance to 156 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 6: come back to America the right way that has been 157 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 6: extremely effective. 158 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 5: Ask you to run these advertisements, is that right? 159 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 6: We had that conversation. Yes, before I was put in 160 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 6: this position and sworn in and confirmed and since then 161 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 6: as well. 162 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 2: Okay, did. 163 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,719 Speaker 5: You bid at those service contracts? Yes, they did. 164 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 6: They went out to a competitive bid, and career officials 165 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:47,319 Speaker 6: at the department chose who would do those advertising commercials. 166 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 5: And the people that you ended up picking were people 167 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,679 Speaker 5: who had formerly done your political work back in shout 168 00:09:58,720 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 5: to cot. Is that right? 169 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 6: No, that's not correct, sir, No, it's not, sir. The 170 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 6: individuals who I believe, the careers who they chose were 171 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 6: two different media firms. There's been conversation about their subcontractors, 172 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,479 Speaker 6: but we have no legal authority to look into subcontractors 173 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:18,200 Speaker 6: on work like that. 174 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 5: Okay, and you're saying that you're testifying that President Trump 175 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,560 Speaker 5: approved this ahead of time, because I might understanding. 176 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 6: We had conversations about making sure that we were telling people. 177 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 5: I'm asking you a short to interrupt, but the President 178 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 5: approved ahead of time. You spending two hundred and twenty 179 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 5: million dollars running TV ads across the country in which 180 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,200 Speaker 5: you are featured prominently, Yes. 181 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 6: Sir, we went through the legal processes. Did it correct? 182 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 7: Yes? 183 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 8: He did? 184 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 5: Yes, Okay. 185 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 6: One thing Senator I think would be helpful to know 186 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 6: is how effective communications has been that overwhelmed active in 187 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 6: your name recognition. 188 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 5: I mean, I personally, just I mean to me, it 189 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 5: puts the president in a terribly awkward spot and it 190 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 5: and I just I'm not saying you're not telling the truth. 191 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:20,319 Speaker 5: It's just hard for me to believe. 192 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:22,680 Speaker 3: You know, I'm the president, all right, So you get 193 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 3: the gist of it. It goes on. And do you know 194 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 3: that he's the same age as I am, He said, 195 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 3: poor John Kennedy sounds like in his eighties. So look, 196 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 3: here's here's the deal. Two hundred and twenty million dollars. 197 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 3: We've seen the video and you probably have to. It 198 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 3: shows Christinome on horseback galloping across the country with these 199 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 3: scenic shots of America and talking about how great America is. 200 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,600 Speaker 3: My question is, why do we need to spend two 201 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 3: hundred and twenty million dollars of our tax money on 202 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 3: an advertising campaign. I would much rather spend that money 203 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 3: to hire more ice officers and agents so that we 204 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 3: can deport the eagle aliens. Now here's where it's going 205 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 3: to get a little squirrelly. It turns out that the 206 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 3: advertising campaign was a big issue for the White House, 207 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 3: and the White House is throwing Nome under the bus. 208 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 3: They're saying they didn't know anything about it, they had 209 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 3: no knowledge of this. The very next day she gets fired, however, 210 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 3: And there was also when you might have heard the 211 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 3: allegations of infidelity between Christy Nome and Corey Lewandowski. I 212 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 3: don't know. I'm not in the bedroom. I can't tell 213 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 3: you what happens there, but I do know this. It's 214 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:37,559 Speaker 3: very strange. It's weird. People have been talking about this 215 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 3: for at least the past couple of years. Everywhere she goes, 216 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 3: Corey Lewandowski is by her side and not her husband. 217 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 3: I don't know why that. I do not know why 218 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 3: the problem here is that Lewandowski does not get along 219 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 3: with Susie Wiles or Chris La Savita, who are who 220 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 3: were then the president's campaign man. And now, of course 221 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 3: Susie Wiles is the White House Chief of Staff, and 222 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 3: g Nome is suggesting that that's where the problem is, 223 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 3: that Susie Wiles is the problem, and she's the one 224 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 3: who wanted her out as well as Lewandowski. By the way, 225 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 3: Lewandowski is getting whacked as well. Christy Oman had a 226 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 3: chance to address those issues during the hearing. I think 227 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 3: a Democrat actually asked, all right, are you having an affair? 228 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:32,599 Speaker 3: And Christine Nome did not say yes or no. She 229 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 3: himmed and hawed and did not answer the question. That 230 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 3: for me is problematic. But again it seems as though 231 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 3: for when it came to homeland security, Christy Nome really 232 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 3: felt like Lewandowski. She could not do the job without 233 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 3: him by her side for whatever reason. Now here's where 234 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 3: the challenge comes in, and we're going to play this 235 00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 3: audio a little bit later this hour. Mark Kwaynemullen is 236 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 3: not does not share my viewpoint on immigration. He believes 237 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:11,680 Speaker 3: there should be some carve outs for a children under 238 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 3: the age of eighteen some of these so called DACA kids, 239 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 3: and we're gonna play that audio so you'll be able 240 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 3: to hear it for yourself.

And this was first reported by 267 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 3: the Washington Post. CBS News now confirming that information as well, 268 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 3: and not much of a surprise that the Russians are 269 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 3: doing that. All right, let's go to the phone lines. 270 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 3: We're going to start our open Line Friday in Little Rock, Arkansas. 271 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 3: Steve listening to us on KWAM high Steve, what's going on? 272 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 8: Hey Ton? 273 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 9: The deal about deporting all the elders. One thing we 274 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 9: need to be realistic about this. There's no realistic way 275 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 9: that Pump under the spinal three years of his administration 276 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 9: is going to deport I've heard up to up to 277 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 9: fifty million illegals. That's just not realistically possible. A little 278 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 9: bit in Christy Nowlan's defense on this advertising thing, I 279 00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 9: think right now, what's more important than the actual numbers 280 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 9: and the actual stuff and what the Trump administration ought 281 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,199 Speaker 9: to be trying to sell. And I don't think they 282 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 9: should do it by running two hundred and twenty million 283 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 9: dollars TV commercials riding horses and stuff. But they need 284 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 9: to sell the American people more on why these need 285 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 9: the illegals need to get done, get out of here. 286 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,160 Speaker 9: They need to start stressing more on the fraud that's 287 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 9: linked to them. They need to start stressing more on 288 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 9: you know, they push, push, push these violent crimes, which 289 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 9: is very important. But these violent crimes are touching a 290 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 9: fraction of one percent of this country. The fraud, all 291 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 9: the money we're spending, all this stuff with the illegal voting, 292 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 9: all the other stuff that's linked to them, touches every 293 00:17:59,080 --> 00:17:59,640 Speaker 9: one of us. 294 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 3: Well, it does, Steve. Let me ask you a question here, 295 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 3: because again, these what's really generating a lot of the 296 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:12,160 Speaker 3: news coverage, at least in the conservative side, would be 297 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 3: the people that are killed by the illegals. And I understand, 298 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 3: you know, those are horrible stories. But if you really 299 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,479 Speaker 3: want to talk about impact, I think to your point, 300 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 3: you need to go in and let's say there's a 301 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:27,879 Speaker 3: city like Wichita, Kansas that's being run by a liberal mayor. 302 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 3: You've got Wichita, Kansas maybe coming in and saying, hey, look, 303 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 3: people of Wichita, every time you've got X number of 304 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 3: illegals living in your community, they're using up X number 305 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:44,919 Speaker 3: of dollars worth of whatever resources that should be going 306 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 3: to the law inviding taxpayers of Wichita, for example. 307 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 9: That's my point exactly. I think we ought to be 308 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 9: putting more emphasis on punishing than trying to make it. 309 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 9: Because everybody believe all the depots the Democrats are just 310 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 9: using that as uh, I guess, I mean, that's there, 311 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 9: that's what they steve. 312 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 3: All I'm asking. All I'm asking is that the Trump 313 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 3: administration deport as many people as Barack Hussein Obama did. 314 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,879 Speaker 3: And I have some serious questions about the so called 315 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 3: millions of people who have self deborded. I have a 316 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 3: lot of questions. I'd like to see that documentation. All right, 317 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:29,400 Speaker 3: we've got to take a break. Nine oh one two 318 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six, coming back with more 319 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:44,719 Speaker 3: of your calls, all right, welcome back.

By the way, President 322 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 3: Trump issuing an ultimatum now to Iran, we expect nothing 323 00:19:56,560 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 3: more than the unconditional surrender of the Iranian leadership, whoever 324 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:04,439 Speaker 3: those people are. You know, they keep getting blown up 325 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 3: every day, so there's always a new leader, and you 326 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:08,680 Speaker 3: don't want to be that guy. 327 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 2: Right. 328 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 3: Can you imagine me next in line and you're like, yeah, 329 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 3: I'm good, I'm good. I was going to say something 330 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:21,360 Speaker 3: that could have gotten me in trouble, so my apologies. 331 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 3: So anyway, now, President Trump says it looks like we 332 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 3: may be going into Cuba, as JFK famously called the 333 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:36,120 Speaker 3: island nation.

Gentlemen, good to. 501 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 2: See both of you. 502 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 3: Dalton, I want to start with you, what do you 503 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 3: think of what Congressman Burchett had to say there? 504 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:39,440 Speaker 15: Representive Burchute. 505 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 16: It can always talk about serious issues while also offering 506 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 16: some level of humor, which is much needed, especially when 507 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 16: we're talking about heated subjects. 508 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 17: But I think he's right. 509 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 16: People should be vigilant and they should hold people accountable, 510 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 16: especially elected officials, accountable, to make sure that those fears 511 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 16: aren't realized and I think those are legitimate fears from 512 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 16: the American people, and I also hope this is not 513 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 16: a forever war, and I trust those in the administration 514 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 16: right now to try and make sure the rating people 515 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:09,720 Speaker 16: are able to achieve their freedom. 516 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 3: Josh Howse Speaker Mike Johnson telling reporters today, quote we 517 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 3: are not at war right now. Is that the messaging 518 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 3: the American people and Republican voters are looking for. 519 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:25,720 Speaker 12: Look, Speaker Johnson's a great leader forever Republicans in the House, 520 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 12: but I think the message for Republicans across the board 521 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 12: right now needs to be We've been a war of 522 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 12: Iran for years. This didn't start on Saturday. This has 523 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 12: been happening for years. The world's biggest sponsor of terror, 524 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 12: and they've killed Americans via proxy for years, American service 525 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 12: members and citizens. So the notion that this is uncalled for, 526 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 12: it's just totally unfounded. I mean, this is a war 527 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 12: that's been raging in the background for years. But President 528 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 12: Trump is the first president that's have the courage to 529 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 12: actually stand up and take down this regime to save 530 00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 12: American lives in the long run. I think that's a 531 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 12: message that the Speaker and Republicans need to take to 532 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 12: the American voters. 533 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 3: Yes, since nineteen seventy nine, guys, nineteen seventy nine. President 534 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 3: Trump back in nineteen eighty actually told a reporter we 535 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 3: needed to go in and take care of business in 536 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 3: Iran way back then, some forty years ago, Dalton, just 537 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 3: a couple of days ago, we had some gen Z 538 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 3: conservatives on this very program adamantly against the war with Iran. 539 00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 3: Here is Jackson Heberlin from Clemson University, from the College Republicans. 540 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 3: Let's listen. 541 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 18: I do think that we will see rabid blowback from 542 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 18: a lot of the Trump's strongest supporters, and I feel 543 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 18: as though I am one of them. Like many Americans, 544 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 18: I've grown tired of endless wars in the Middle East, 545 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 18: and I feel as though time and time again we've 546 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 18: been led with a easy war that will be quick 547 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:49,960 Speaker 18: and has a really good reason to occur. And yet 548 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 18: I see it as very very rare that these things 549 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 18: turn out the way that we want them to. I'm 550 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 18: very skeptical of regime change like Pria, and I can 551 00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 18: say for me, at least, this has rapidly decreased my 552 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:01,720 Speaker 18: trust the presidency and our current administration. 553 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 3: All right, daldonde, where are the where are the youngsters 554 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:06,720 Speaker 3: getting this sort of stuff at. 555 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 16: Well, first, I'm going to age you a little bit. 556 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 16: Nineteen seventy nine. I wasn't even thought of at that point, 557 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 16: and so this has been going on well beyond how. 558 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 19: Old I am. 559 00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 2: Thank you for that. Yeah. 560 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 16: So, I mean when we're talking about this issue, Americans 561 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 16: historically have been isolationists until we can't be any longer. 562 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 16: And that's a privilege because of our location being protected 563 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 16: by two oceans. But we're naive if we think that 564 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:34,440 Speaker 16: these policies will or that America is safe soul because 565 00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 16: we're isolation it's because of interventions in the past. And 566 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 16: I trust the power of the presidency. He's been given 567 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 16: more information that I will not be given. And he's 568 00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:44,239 Speaker 16: been given more information and briefings than any of us 569 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 16: while we get in our lifetime. And that's why we 570 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 16: elect a commander in chief to be able to make 571 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 16: decisions when presented before them, to the act on behalf 572 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 16: of the safety of American citizens and American service members. 573 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 16: And that is a role of the presidency. I don't 574 00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 16: want to know about every single detail about why we 575 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 16: have to intervene the something that is the job of 576 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 16: the president. 577 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:04,960 Speaker 3: You know, that's a good point. And again a reminder here, guys, 578 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 3: not a single thing is leaked out of the Pentagon. 579 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 3: I mean, it's you got to give props there to 580 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 3: the War Secretary. They're running a pretty tight ship. That 581 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 3: being said, Josh, what do you say to these younger 582 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:19,320 Speaker 3: conservatives who say, hey, look, it's America first, we should 583 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 3: not be over there fighting Iran because that's not an 584 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 3: America first issue. 585 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 12: Look, I would argue the opposite. It is an American 586 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 12: first issue. And President Trump's been clear about that, going 587 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 12: back all the way to twenty sixteen. The President's been 588 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 12: clear about asserting American dominance back onto the world stage 589 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 12: because it was decimated after Obama was decimated Darren Biden. 590 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 12: And this is a clear message to our adversaries around 591 00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 12: the world that America's back and you can't just say 592 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 12: and do whatever you want and expect no consequence. Peace 593 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 12: through strength only works if the terrence is there. So 594 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 12: if we draw a redline in the sand, we have 595 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 12: to act on that. President Trump's been clear about that, 596 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:57,320 Speaker 12: and that'd be my message to those Republicans who may 597 00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 12: be apprehensive about this. Look, no one likes a war, 598 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 12: but sometimes it's a necessary thing, you. 599 00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:05,080 Speaker 3: Know, Dalton, that seemed to be a big argument among 600 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 3: the America First crowd. You've got Steve Bannon, Tucker Carlson, Candas, 601 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 3: Owen's MTG. The list goes on, and they're saying, we 602 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 3: have no business biting these wars. This isolationist wing of 603 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 3: the party. What do you tell those folks. 604 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:23,480 Speaker 16: Tood, My first memory was nine to eleven. That does 605 00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 16: the first cogg and memory have my life? And I 606 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 16: saw what terrorism can do to this country, and we 607 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 16: see Iran funding these operations, which is what my first 608 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 16: memory in life was. We have to be able to 609 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 16: make sure that we're addressing these conditions and making sure 610 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 16: that we show that America is an idea and we 611 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 16: also are our country simultaneously. 612 00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 3: Josh, I want to give you the last word here. 613 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 3: It just seems to me America First means making sure 614 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 3: that we don't have enemies that are going to put 615 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 3: nuclear clouds over American cities. And that's what the President's 616 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:56,280 Speaker 3: trying to do here, doing what other presidents should have 617 00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 3: done but failed to do. 618 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 12: You are one hundred percent correct, that's what this instration 619 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 12: is following through on, and that's what the Secretary of 620 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 12: State is following through on the Secretary of War. And 621 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 12: they're doing a great job and they should be committed 622 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:07,800 Speaker 12: for that. 623 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is it's It's like someone said, on a 624 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:13,799 Speaker 3: scale of one to ten, and the President said that 625 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 3: it's a fifteen. Every single military leader, including those that 626 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 3: have been critical of President Trump in the past, have 627 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:23,880 Speaker 3: actually said this White House has done a phenomenal job 628 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 3: managing the war in Iran. All right, let's go to 629 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 3: the phone lines. Here, Don in Houston, Texas listening to 630 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 3: us on Patriot Talk nine to twenty. Don, what's on 631 00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 3: your mind today? 632 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 8: Well, I've got a question for you, Todd. I'm a 633 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 8: long time listener and a frequent caller. I happen to 634 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:46,279 Speaker 8: wonder what's going on with Christina Olmo. I thought she 635 00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 8: was doing a heck of a job, and now she's 636 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:53,800 Speaker 8: been replaced. Now I understand she's been moved to new position. 637 00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:59,480 Speaker 8: Was this a promotion or was it a demotion? What's 638 00:34:59,560 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 8: going on? 639 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 3: No, this is it's going to be a newly created position, 640 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:06,319 Speaker 3: and this is a demotion. I know that a lot 641 00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:08,920 Speaker 3: of folks on the America of her side are saying, oh, 642 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 3: this is this is a promotion. No, she's being booted 643 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:15,640 Speaker 3: out of the cabinet, so this is it's not a promotion. 644 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 3: Don There's been a lot of feuding and we're starting 645 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 3: to get you know, her side of the story, and 646 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:24,240 Speaker 3: her side is that there were people within the White 647 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 3: House who were trying to stop her. They did not 648 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:31,919 Speaker 3: like Corey Lewandowski, and it seems as though they're they're 649 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 3: trying she's trying to blame Susie Wiles and Chris Lotsovida. 650 00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 3: By the way, this is coming out of exclusive reporting 651 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:42,680 Speaker 3: from the Daily Caller. So there's been some bad blood there. 652 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:46,720 Speaker 3: And I think the tipping point was this Senate hearing 653 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 3: the other day where she admitted to spending two hundred 654 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 3: and twenty million dollars on an advertising campaign. 655 00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:58,759 Speaker 8: Oh I didn't know that, Okay, I missed that part. Yeah, 656 00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 8: I thought she was doing a heck of a job. 657 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:05,880 Speaker 3: So, I mean, well, there had been and we have 658 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:08,800 Speaker 3: been sharing. I don't think we connected it to Christine Nome. 659 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:11,040 Speaker 3: Maybe we should have done a better job of that, 660 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:13,879 Speaker 3: but you know, there there have been some problems for 661 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 3: a while and a lot of it goes back to 662 00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 3: something I said last title Newsmax that at the end 663 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:24,239 Speaker 3: of the day, it's not about the cabinet secretaries, and 664 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:27,920 Speaker 3: it's not about Corey Lewandowski or Christinome or Pam Bondi 665 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:31,440 Speaker 3: or even Jeanine Piro. This is about Donald J. Trump. 666 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 3: That's the only reason they're there. And and you've got 667 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:37,279 Speaker 3: to put aside, you've got to be willing. One of 668 00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:40,880 Speaker 3: the challenges here. Trump's got some great people. The problem 669 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:43,960 Speaker 3: is they've also got great egos. And these people are 670 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:45,439 Speaker 3: going to have to figure out a way to put 671 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 3: their egos to the side so they can do the 672 00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 3: job that Trump wants them to do. 673 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:58,320 Speaker 8: Okay, I'll buy into that. That sounds good. I realize 674 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,360 Speaker 8: there's a lot of those people up there have egos 675 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:07,319 Speaker 8: it's unbelievable. But I just I hate to see her 676 00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:12,880 Speaker 8: get demoted. You know, I moved to a different position. Okay, fine, 677 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 8: But then I don't know all the ins. 678 00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:17,960 Speaker 3: And outs, and I know that don Well. I appreciate.

No, 709 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,440 Speaker 3: it's I was saying star Spangled. That was That was 710 00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:34,320 Speaker 3: my devotion of a lot of books. I got a 711 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:37,359 Speaker 3: lot of books, good books. There's number ten, number book 712 00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:37,919 Speaker 3: number ten. 713 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:38,760 Speaker 2: Jeez a loop. 714 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 3: You know, a lot of people ask me, do you 715 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:46,200 Speaker 3: write all of your books? Yes, I do, and I 716 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:48,719 Speaker 3: will not name names. And there's nothing wrong with us. 717 00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:50,399 Speaker 3: By the way, there's nothing wrong with this at all. 718 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 3: But a lot of a lot of talk radio hosts 719 00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:55,600 Speaker 3: who do write books. There are several. They're not a lot, 720 00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:59,319 Speaker 3: but there are several, and they use ghostwriters, and there's 721 00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:02,160 Speaker 3: nothing wrong with that at all, because that's, you know, 722 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:03,960 Speaker 3: a great way for people to make a living. And 723 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:06,000 Speaker 3: people go on and they write. You say, what is 724 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,200 Speaker 3: a ghostwriter, Well, a ghost writer is somebody who goes 725 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:11,319 Speaker 3: in and they get paid to write a book and 726 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:13,760 Speaker 3: then they will put the name of the famous person 727 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:18,399 Speaker 3: on the cover of the book, and that's that's It's 728 00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:22,280 Speaker 3: a very common practice in the publishing business. But my 729 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:25,759 Speaker 3: writing style, they say, is is unique. I think it's 730 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:29,879 Speaker 3: just weird. But people enjoy my writing style and it's 731 00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:33,480 Speaker 3: very hard for someone to mimic that. So what you 732 00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,400 Speaker 3: see is what you get. And I write all of 733 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:39,480 Speaker 3: my books. So anyway, I've been working on this one 734 00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:42,040 Speaker 3: for a while, and I've been squirreling away notes here 735 00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:44,959 Speaker 3: and there with the interviews I've done with President Trump 736 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 3: over the past several years, and I really wanted to 737 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:52,440 Speaker 3: write to write a book that would celebrate the incredibly 738 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 3: great accomplishments of President Trump over these past several years 739 00:40:57,239 --> 00:41:01,040 Speaker 3: and really explore the idea of the golden as what 740 00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:02,959 Speaker 3: did the President mean when he said he was going 741 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:06,279 Speaker 3: to usher in the golden age of America. Well, I 742 00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:10,080 Speaker 3: write about that, and then I set the stage for 743 00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:13,600 Speaker 3: the midterm elections, because there is there is a turn 744 00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:18,799 Speaker 3: coming in American politics and in American culture. And I 745 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:23,600 Speaker 3: think ultimately, when you examine what Donald Trump has done 746 00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:26,239 Speaker 3: for this nation and who he is for this nation 747 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:30,520 Speaker 3: and what he means for the nation, this is a 748 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:34,840 Speaker 3: consequential presidency Here This is not some sort of a 749 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:38,560 Speaker 3: flash in the pan. This is a president who has 750 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 3: had a profound impact, not just on politics and not 751 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:47,480 Speaker 3: just on world affairs, but on the culture of America, 752 00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:50,279 Speaker 3: the very fiber of what it means to be an American. 753 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 3: And I really do believe that historians will look back 754 00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:59,920 Speaker 3: on the Trump years in office and they will write 755 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:04,719 Speaker 3: in very positive ways about how Donald Trump has changed 756 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:10,480 Speaker 3: the course of American history, much like Franklin Delano Roosevelt 757 00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:16,000 Speaker 3: did when he served almost four terms in office. I mean, 758 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:20,719 Speaker 3: what FDR did really transformed what it means to be 759 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:24,920 Speaker 3: an American. So I think Donald Trump is one of 760 00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:29,399 Speaker 3: those kinds of president, one of these transformational presidencies. And 761 00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 3: so I wrote about this in the book. And also 762 00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:35,719 Speaker 3: I wanted to take a look at the midterms. The 763 00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:41,520 Speaker 3: book will be out in May, and the midterms we 764 00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:45,080 Speaker 3: will just start, I mean it'll really start picking up 765 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:48,239 Speaker 3: the coverage around May and June as we go into 766 00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:50,319 Speaker 3: the summer months. And I wanted to make sure that 767 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 3: you had this in your hands so that you could 768 00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:56,360 Speaker 3: understand what is really at stake here, because all of 769 00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:59,520 Speaker 3: the good that President Trump has done can be undone 770 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:04,000 Speaker 3: by Republicans staying home and independence, staying home and not 771 00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:07,600 Speaker 3: voting in the midterm elections. So the name of the 772 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:12,560 Speaker 3: book again, it's called The Golden Age, Stop laughing, Bill, 773 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:18,280 Speaker 3: The Golden Age, How Trump Saved America. And when Joseph 774 00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:21,680 Speaker 3: Huntley is my designer. He one of the deals we 775 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:25,799 Speaker 3: work out with our publishing houses is that we get 776 00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:28,280 Speaker 3: to pick the person who designs the cover. And Joseph 777 00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:32,560 Speaker 3: has done a wonderful job. He's designed the covers for gosh, 778 00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:35,080 Speaker 3: six or seven of my books, and he's just a 779 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:39,600 Speaker 3: phenomenal designer. And so we said, Joseph, we've got to 780 00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:42,359 Speaker 3: have a it's got to be a Great Gatsby kind 781 00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:45,920 Speaker 3: of like Roaring Twenties, you know, sort of feel.

I'm listening to this guy talk 810 00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:17,759 Speaker 11: to you and Obviously, he got his facts mixed up 811 00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:22,000 Speaker 11: quite badly when he talked about an evacuation plan. I 812 00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:28,160 Speaker 11: think he was talking about Afghanistan. Trump had an evacuation 813 00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:31,600 Speaker 11: plan when we were pulling out of Afghanistan, and Joe 814 00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:36,799 Speaker 11: Biden was the one that messed it up.

He didn't understand it was Afghanistan. 817 00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:46,920 Speaker 10: Not Iran or Iraq. 818 00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:50,080 Speaker 11: I just wanted to make that point. And obviously he 819 00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:53,560 Speaker 11: called us names, and Todd, you were very graceful and 820 00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:57,560 Speaker 11: calling that mule muffin sniffer, calling him out. But I 821 00:45:57,640 --> 00:45:58,799 Speaker 11: just wanted to make that point back. 822 00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:02,680 Speaker 3: And I'm sorry you call him a mule muffin sniffer. 823 00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:07,320 Speaker 11: Yes, a mule muffin sniffer or a cow pie pounder. 824 00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:12,040 Speaker 11: The point is, Todd, is that he didn't know his facts. 825 00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:12,799 Speaker 2: Yeah. 826 00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:16,120 Speaker 11: No, obviously, And the thing about it is, Todd, you 827 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:18,799 Speaker 11: did try to make the facts known. We are not 828 00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 11: boots on the ground. Trump is trying to President Trump 829 00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:25,000 Speaker 11: is trying to avoid that, and what he's basically doing 830 00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:29,840 Speaker 11: is using air supremacy. And here's another thing the previous 831 00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:33,920 Speaker 11: caller didn't understand. Did you hear about that navy frigate 832 00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:38,480 Speaker 11: from Irande literally ran to another fort and surrendered their ship. 833 00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:44,440 Speaker 11: Remember that one too? Oh I'm like, oh wait, there's more. 834 00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:47,440 Speaker 11: And everything that he does is he is trying to 835 00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:51,399 Speaker 11: avoid the loss of American lives. Well, fortunately those six 836 00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:56,120 Speaker 11: soldiers were killed by a drone attack. But you know 837 00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:58,920 Speaker 11: my son's brother because from you know, one of my 838 00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:02,759 Speaker 11: son's relative kiss is currently in Kuwait. Now, first thing 839 00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:05,240 Speaker 11: I did is I called to make sure his relative 840 00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 11: is okay, and he was. But he believes in the 841 00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:13,200 Speaker 11: mission is taking And obviously your previous caller didn't understand. 842 00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:16,320 Speaker 11: We've been at war with Iran since nineteen seventy nine, 843 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:19,120 Speaker 11: that's right. And the only difference now now is this 844 00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:22,279 Speaker 11: becoming more prevalent and we are taking their butts and 845 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:26,319 Speaker 11: taking names. So the mule muffin sniffer needs to do 846 00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:29,440 Speaker 11: his homework before he does anything else. And Todd, seriously, 847 00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:31,560 Speaker 11: just let me make this real quick. I love you 848 00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:34,239 Speaker 11: and your staff. You guys have always given us a 849 00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:36,440 Speaker 11: form to speak with my wife and Ivy and a 850 00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:38,160 Speaker 11: veteran and I'm trying to encourage you to call because 851 00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:41,239 Speaker 11: she's smarter than me.

A mule mule muffin sniffer, Dylan, I'm 861 00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:07,960 Speaker 3: gonna have to remember that. We're gonna have to write 862 00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:08,200 Speaker 3: that one. 863 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:09,520 Speaker 14: I literally said that in here. I was like, we're 864 00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:11,040 Speaker 14: gonna use that almost every day. 865 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:12,920 Speaker 3: Now it sounds a little. 866 00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:16,319 Speaker 2: Sexual. Well, I guess. 867 00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:21,520 Speaker 3: Maybe, Okay, I know which, which reminds me. We've got 868 00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:25,720 Speaker 3: to play this audio. Uh, this is from a congressional hearing. 869 00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:30,440 Speaker 3: Speaking of weird. It turns out the Biden administration was 870 00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:32,680 Speaker 3: using your tax I know this is going to sound absurd, 871 00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:36,920 Speaker 3: but the Biden administration was actually using your tax dollars 872 00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:41,840 Speaker 3: to make maps, like you know Rand McNally and the 873 00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:46,759 Speaker 3: to make maps more more homosexual. Take a listen, Can 874 00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:49,200 Speaker 3: you tell me, uh, what is queering the map? 875 00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:52,360 Speaker 20: So I think we were trying to make the maps 876 00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:52,880 Speaker 20: more gay. 877 00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:56,279 Speaker 14: Literally, well, how do you make a map? 878 00:48:56,719 --> 00:48:59,120 Speaker 20: I mean, especially we're gay. You know, since the age 879 00:48:59,120 --> 00:49:01,520 Speaker 20: of cartography, we've had pretty good maps, but maybe they 880 00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:02,360 Speaker 20: weren't gay enough. 881 00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:03,520 Speaker 21: So I know. 882 00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:05,680 Speaker 20: Also, I took critical theory in college. I think sometimes 883 00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:08,359 Speaker 20: people use queer as a verb. I do understand that 884 00:49:08,400 --> 00:49:11,680 Speaker 20: the maps that we were trying to make gay were 885 00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:14,440 Speaker 20: I think of Cchuchia and Slovakia, So maybe those countries 886 00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:16,640 Speaker 20: asked for it. I doubt it, but I don't know. 887 00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:18,960 Speaker 22: We have real things to work on in comas, like 888 00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:21,600 Speaker 22: what's going on with the imminent threat of Iran, and 889 00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:24,319 Speaker 22: it is embarrassing that we have to talk about the 890 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:27,560 Speaker 22: fact that things like this were funded. Non binary and 891 00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:34,240 Speaker 22: trans Francophones, linguistic attitudes and ideologies towards inclusive French in Montreal, Canada. 892 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:34,680 Speaker 18: These things. 893 00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:35,680 Speaker 14: I'm going to give you a list. 894 00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:37,200 Speaker 22: My time is expired. I'm going to give you a 895 00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:40,600 Speaker 22: list of these and any of these that you can 896 00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:46,080 Speaker 22: provide me the receipt for the Facebook link to where 897 00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:49,239 Speaker 22: they wanted to take photos of how they were doing 898 00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:53,720 Speaker 22: a Deia flash mob in Kregas, Stan. You know, whatever, 899 00:49:53,800 --> 00:49:56,560 Speaker 22: documentation they have of all of these things. We would 900 00:49:56,600 --> 00:49:59,319 Speaker 22: love to see that and would absolutely love to know 901 00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:03,840 Speaker 22: the individual specifically that we're busy writing these grants because 902 00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:04,120 Speaker 22: they have. 903 00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:08,440 Speaker 3: No business stop so wait to say so did the 904 00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:11,560 Speaker 3: So basically now they're telling us, Dylan, is this true 905 00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:14,600 Speaker 3: that Slovakia is a gay country? 906 00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:14,919 Speaker 2: Right? 907 00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:17,240 Speaker 14: Well, they said they didn't want to, but they asked 908 00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:20,479 Speaker 14: for it. They wanted to be a gag. They wanted 909 00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:20,960 Speaker 14: to be gay. 910 00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:25,080 Speaker 3: That sounds like a I don't know, a me too movement, right, yeah, 911 00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:28,799 Speaker 3: a little bit too. Wow, that's it made me feel uncomfortable. 912 00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:31,439 Speaker 3: I want to have the Slovakians feel about this. Their 913 00:50:31,480 --> 00:50:40,799 Speaker 3: country's queer. That's unfortunate. Sorry, we don't judge here. I mean, 914 00:50:40,880 --> 00:50:43,800 Speaker 3: I just what was the other country? Was it Czechoslovakia 915 00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:45,200 Speaker 3: as well or just Slovakia? 916 00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:47,319 Speaker 14: I don't know it neither sounds good for. 917 00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:49,920 Speaker 3: Them, No, it's not good. Now, if you had asked me, 918 00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:53,960 Speaker 3: I would have thought, I mean again, maybe Rhode Island. 919 00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:57,960 Speaker 3: I guess I could have seen that, seen that California, definitely, 920 00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:02,800 Speaker 3: at least Berkeley. So I decided to go in to 921 00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:07,200 Speaker 3: chance Ept and I was wondering how mule muffin sniffer 922 00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:13,640 Speaker 3: translates into Slovak and dylan. According to Chance ept Uh, 923 00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:17,759 Speaker 3: it does not have a direct Slovak equivalent, but there 924 00:51:17,880 --> 00:51:21,680 Speaker 3: is a literal translation, and the literal translation would mean 925 00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:25,160 Speaker 3: quote sniffer of mule's backsides. 926 00:51:26,960 --> 00:51:30,640 Speaker 14: Well, there you go, no harm done. We're all good here. 927 00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:42,040 Speaker 23: I'll tell you Jules Joleseph biting you sniffer or mule backside. 928 00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:46,919 Speaker 3: That's terrible. All right, we gotta take a wow your 929 00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:49,759 Speaker 3: tax dollars at work, ladies and gentlemen. Nine oh one 930 00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:52,360 Speaker 3: two six zero five nine two six. This is the 931 00:51:52,400 --> 00:52:04,080 Speaker 3: Todd starn Show. All right, let's go to Newburn, North Carolina. 932 00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:08,040 Speaker 3: Wayne is listening to us on the talk station. Hi, Wayne, 933 00:52:08,040 --> 00:52:09,280 Speaker 3: what's on your mind today? 934 00:52:10,320 --> 00:52:12,319 Speaker 15: Well, well, I hope I'm not a little too late 935 00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:18,000 Speaker 15: to asked a question earlier about do we agree with immigration, 936 00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:24,680 Speaker 15: you know, sending back all illegals or carving it out. 937 00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:25,719 Speaker 15: I think that was a question. 938 00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:26,640 Speaker 2: Wayne. Let me ask you. 939 00:52:26,680 --> 00:52:30,720 Speaker 3: Are you on a speaker phone behind each Chance? Yes, 940 00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:33,279 Speaker 3: why don't yeah? Pick up that phone there? Up there 941 00:52:33,320 --> 00:52:36,200 Speaker 3: we go? Perfect? All right. Yes, by the way, it's 942 00:52:36,239 --> 00:52:39,759 Speaker 3: never too late on open line Friday. You control the conversation. 943 00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:44,719 Speaker 24: Yeah, and so I mean with your question like that, 944 00:52:45,040 --> 00:52:48,960 Speaker 24: it seems all these people that are not upset with 945 00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:52,640 Speaker 24: with the illegals coming over here would probably more upset 946 00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:55,640 Speaker 24: if you cut in in line at a movie theater 947 00:52:55,760 --> 00:52:59,920 Speaker 24: with them. I have sort of a different perspective, and 948 00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:02,520 Speaker 24: I hope I'm not redundant with I had to take 949 00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:04,520 Speaker 24: a break. I couldn't listen to any of the callings 950 00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:10,239 Speaker 24: on this subject. So anyhow, not that it matters, but 951 00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:16,200 Speaker 24: I'm a retired marine and so my situation happened because 952 00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:20,600 Speaker 24: of my travels in the military, end up marrying a 953 00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:24,439 Speaker 24: Philippine lady and stuff like this. So my perspective is 954 00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:30,200 Speaker 24: is I've actually sponsored like probably around seven people from 955 00:53:30,200 --> 00:53:32,040 Speaker 24: the Philippines to come over. 956 00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:34,280 Speaker 9: Legally to the States. 957 00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:35,640 Speaker 15: And each time. 958 00:53:36,920 --> 00:53:39,279 Speaker 24: I don't recall there being tons of money involved, but 959 00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:43,040 Speaker 24: there was a lot of time and I had to 960 00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:46,839 Speaker 24: sign my agreement that I had to sign said that 961 00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:50,680 Speaker 24: I was responsible for all of these people. You know, 962 00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:52,399 Speaker 24: these were at different times, it wasn't all at once. 963 00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:56,160 Speaker 24: Every time, I was responsible for the next three years 964 00:53:56,320 --> 00:53:58,799 Speaker 24: of these people financially that they were not allowed to 965 00:53:58,840 --> 00:54:04,799 Speaker 24: go on any government assistance during that time, and that's. 966 00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:06,719 Speaker 15: Kind of going through the legal way. 967 00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:11,520 Speaker 24: And so for me, it burns me that that people 968 00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:13,520 Speaker 24: just jumped the line. And I know there are lots 969 00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:16,919 Speaker 24: of good people and stuff, but you can't, in my mind, 970 00:54:16,920 --> 00:54:20,600 Speaker 24: you can't just you know, have rules for them. I 971 00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:23,200 Speaker 24: liken it to, hey, we gave you a good run 972 00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:25,759 Speaker 24: for ten years here, but now you have to go 973 00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:28,920 Speaker 24: because it was legal. Well, you still had two you 974 00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:32,880 Speaker 24: still had a good ten years here. So might I 975 00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:35,000 Speaker 24: lack a little a little bit of sympathy in that 976 00:54:35,080 --> 00:54:37,520 Speaker 24: regards that way, But I think it's so. 977 00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:40,560 Speaker 3: You think they all so you Wayne, you think everybody 978 00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:43,800 Speaker 3: here illegally has to go and come back the right way? 979 00:54:44,760 --> 00:54:48,080 Speaker 24: Yes, absolutely, yes, you know, for. 980 00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:51,560 Speaker 3: Me, it's as much as everybody who came across. And 981 00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:54,719 Speaker 3: that's like Mark Mark Wayne Mullin's position is everybody who 982 00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:57,719 Speaker 3: came here during the biding years, they all have to 983 00:54:57,760 --> 00:55:01,520 Speaker 3: go back. But it's open for debate what we do 984 00:55:01,600 --> 00:55:04,719 Speaker 3: with with the folks that came across, you know, before 985 00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:10,080 Speaker 3: Biden took office. That and that tells me that there 986 00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:13,319 Speaker 3: is going to be a softening of the position on 987 00:55:13,360 --> 00:55:19,080 Speaker 3: the on the issue of who gets deported. Moving moving forward, yeah, 988 00:55:19,120 --> 00:55:19,480 Speaker 3: well it. 989 00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:22,080 Speaker 24: Is sort of like the reparations thing though too. You know, 990 00:55:22,280 --> 00:55:23,879 Speaker 24: it's not going to be fair to any your all, 991 00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:28,160 Speaker 24: no matter how you look at it. So again, I 992 00:55:28,160 --> 00:55:32,040 Speaker 24: think these people have benefited they in their little way 993 00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:35,759 Speaker 24: with the immigration, they have had somewhat reparations for them, 994 00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:37,960 Speaker 24: and that they were able to live here for as 995 00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:39,840 Speaker 24: long as they did. And I don't know where they 996 00:55:39,960 --> 00:55:43,239 Speaker 24: keep coming up and saying they all, you know, they 997 00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:46,160 Speaker 24: make it sound like they're all contributing to the taxes 998 00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:49,319 Speaker 24: and stuff, and you know, I find that hard to 999 00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:51,400 Speaker 24: believe because if they don't have socials and don't have this, 1000 00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:55,080 Speaker 24: you know how, you know, how they could even track 1001 00:55:55,200 --> 00:55:55,919 Speaker 24: something like that. 1002 00:55:57,719 --> 00:55:59,680 Speaker 3: Wayne. We've got to leave it here, my friend, but 1003 00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:02,720 Speaker 3: it it's a good thought. And thank you for serving 1004 00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:05,359 Speaker 3: our great nation, and thank you for making sure again 1005 00:56:05,719 --> 00:56:08,360 Speaker 3: we want legal immigrants.

We're what except it's March 1025 00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:22,840 Speaker 10: and we're with some eight nine months away from the midterms, 1026 00:57:23,600 --> 00:57:27,400 Speaker 10: and I can honestly say that, you know, I didn't 1027 00:57:27,400 --> 00:57:30,200 Speaker 10: believe it was even possible, but somehow things have gone 1028 00:57:30,240 --> 00:57:33,840 Speaker 10: bad to worse for Republicans. Even on the night of 1029 00:57:34,840 --> 00:57:39,439 Speaker 10: the State of the Union, Democrats somehow flipped a seat 1030 00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:42,960 Speaker 10: and flipped the congressional seat in Pennsylvania. And just this 1031 00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:47,840 Speaker 10: week they also during election day or primary election day, 1032 00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:52,240 Speaker 10: they flipped the seat in Arkansas, of all places, Arkansas, 1033 00:57:53,440 --> 00:57:57,560 Speaker 10: and just and just today we found out we lost 1034 00:57:57,640 --> 00:58:02,200 Speaker 10: ninety two thousand jobs in film be wary alone. On 1035 00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:05,120 Speaker 10: top of this, on top of this Iran war that 1036 00:58:05,240 --> 00:58:09,920 Speaker 10: nobody wanted, nobody asks for, with gad, with oil prices spiking, 1037 00:58:11,040 --> 00:58:15,960 Speaker 10: it's it's it's looking it's looking bad. And my only 1038 00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:20,760 Speaker 10: concern with Republicans especially this is after they lose, after 1039 00:58:20,800 --> 00:58:23,520 Speaker 10: they lose the House, or after they lose basically lose 1040 00:58:23,520 --> 00:58:27,919 Speaker 10: the House, which they will. Now's the time you really, 1041 00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:32,280 Speaker 10: y'all really have The question I want to know is 1042 00:58:34,440 --> 00:58:36,960 Speaker 10: who's going to be Who's going to be the candidate 1043 00:58:37,080 --> 00:58:41,120 Speaker 10: to run at twenty twenty eight, simply because now's the 1044 00:58:41,160 --> 00:58:42,760 Speaker 10: time you need to be fund You need to figure 1045 00:58:42,760 --> 00:58:44,360 Speaker 10: out who your candidate is, or at least have a 1046 00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:47,920 Speaker 10: short list of who they are. You need the fundraise 1047 00:58:48,360 --> 00:58:52,640 Speaker 10: because presidential elections aren't cheap. So just to run for 1048 00:58:52,720 --> 00:58:56,600 Speaker 10: president alone, who runs up runs upwards of a billion dollars. 1049 00:58:57,240 --> 00:58:59,560 Speaker 10: And I don't think nobody most people don't have that 1050 00:58:59,720 --> 00:59:03,280 Speaker 10: just went under the couch somewhere. And then the one 1051 00:59:03,320 --> 00:59:06,840 Speaker 10: thing I heard during the entire time after Kamala Harris 1052 00:59:07,120 --> 00:59:11,880 Speaker 10: was the Democratic nominee is is are the Republicans going 1053 00:59:11,920 --> 00:59:15,400 Speaker 10: to have a primary. Are they going to primary a candidate? 1054 00:59:16,040 --> 00:59:19,080 Speaker 3: Oh, I have no doubt about that. And Arnez, I 1055 00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:20,880 Speaker 3: just wanted to kind of hear you out here, and 1056 00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:23,840 Speaker 3: I want to try to answer some of your questions. 1057 00:59:23,520 --> 00:59:26,240 Speaker 3: I'm really not going to disagree with you. I mean, 1058 00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:28,160 Speaker 3: the numbers are bad for February. 1059 00:59:28,240 --> 00:59:28,920 Speaker 2: They're not good. 1060 00:59:29,560 --> 00:59:34,000 Speaker 3: I think the labor market well, well, for example, let 1061 00:59:34,040 --> 00:59:36,080 Speaker 3: me get into the labor market in a moment. Gas 1062 00:59:36,120 --> 00:59:38,880 Speaker 3: prices are going up. That's because of what's happening with 1063 00:59:38,960 --> 00:59:43,000 Speaker 3: the war. That is a residual effect. Those prices should 1064 00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:48,000 Speaker 3: come down once the war ends. Grocery prices have been 1065 00:59:48,560 --> 00:59:50,720 Speaker 3: still pretty high, and a lot of that is because 1066 00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:54,680 Speaker 3: the price of diesel, which fuels the trucks. The price 1067 00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:57,480 Speaker 3: of diesel has yet to come down. And the fact 1068 00:59:57,520 --> 01:00:01,280 Speaker 3: of the matter is a lot of the retailers are 1069 01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:05,160 Speaker 3: not going to lower prices unless people really start raising 1070 01:00:05,240 --> 01:00:07,360 Speaker 3: a steak, come at it, and or just stop buying 1071 01:00:07,400 --> 01:00:11,600 Speaker 3: the product. So those are all big problems. And is 1072 01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:14,000 Speaker 3: it possible this is this could be an anomaly, and 1073 01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:15,880 Speaker 3: so far it is an anomaly. 1074 01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:16,360 Speaker 2: Arnez. 1075 01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:19,240 Speaker 3: I mean, we've seen great, great growth in the labor 1076 01:00:19,320 --> 01:00:22,720 Speaker 3: market up until February, so this could be an anomaly, 1077 01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:25,160 Speaker 3: and I'd like to see what those numbers are going 1078 01:00:25,200 --> 01:00:27,000 Speaker 3: to look like, the March numbers when they come out 1079 01:00:27,040 --> 01:00:29,480 Speaker 3: in April. You know, let's take a look then. But 1080 01:00:29,560 --> 01:00:33,480 Speaker 3: I will say this, there are problems, and that's clear 1081 01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:36,040 Speaker 3: to me based on the turnout or the lack of 1082 01:00:36,080 --> 01:00:41,000 Speaker 3: turnout from Republican voters in these major primary elections, Texas 1083 01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:43,560 Speaker 3: and North Carolina being the most recent examples of it. 1084 01:00:43,600 --> 01:00:46,640 Speaker 3: So I'm really not disagreeing with you a lot on 1085 01:00:46,680 --> 01:00:47,680 Speaker 3: your assessment here. 1086 01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:51,720 Speaker 10: It's like you're you're asolutely and you're absolutely right. And 1087 01:00:51,960 --> 01:00:54,280 Speaker 10: the thing is, it's like you also got to look 1088 01:00:54,280 --> 01:00:57,320 Speaker 10: at the top of the ticket, because you know, we 1089 01:00:57,440 --> 01:01:00,520 Speaker 10: just saw Christy Nolan lose her job yesterday, which was 1090 01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:03,560 Speaker 10: which was which was bound to happen, because I mean, 1091 01:01:03,600 --> 01:01:06,240 Speaker 10: she definitely pissed off with more than enough people on 1092 01:01:06,520 --> 01:01:10,360 Speaker 10: all sides. And you look at Trump's approval rating, which 1093 01:01:11,000 --> 01:01:14,080 Speaker 10: I mean, since Gallup doesn't do approval numbers anymore, we 1094 01:01:14,120 --> 01:01:17,440 Speaker 10: don't know what that is, but I know the last 1095 01:01:17,440 --> 01:01:19,960 Speaker 10: one was down to at least thirty seven thirty eight percent, 1096 01:01:20,280 --> 01:01:23,400 Speaker 10: and once you get to thirty three percent, which very 1097 01:01:23,440 --> 01:01:26,240 Speaker 10: well can happen. That's when you cut into the base. 1098 01:01:26,760 --> 01:01:33,000 Speaker 10: The long story short is, right now, the American people 1099 01:01:33,680 --> 01:01:37,200 Speaker 10: are not simply not buying what this administration is selling. 1100 01:01:38,160 --> 01:01:40,920 Speaker 10: And either they want to turn either they have a 1101 01:01:40,960 --> 01:01:46,440 Speaker 10: strong desire to turn that around, or or they just 1102 01:01:46,560 --> 01:01:49,280 Speaker 10: don't care. That's pretty much where we're at right now. 1103 01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:52,280 Speaker 3: Well, Arnez, I will say this, there has been some 1104 01:01:52,360 --> 01:01:56,360 Speaker 3: polling data and this is from Newsweek. Newsweek says that 1105 01:01:56,400 --> 01:02:01,680 Speaker 3: the president's approval rating has actually edged higher in research weeks, reversing. 1106 01:02:01,800 --> 01:02:04,920 Speaker 3: There have been a downward trend, but now it appears 1107 01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:09,520 Speaker 3: those numbers are are going up. So again, everything is 1108 01:02:09,560 --> 01:02:12,880 Speaker 3: sort of fluid right now. I will say this as 1109 01:02:13,040 --> 01:02:14,560 Speaker 3: and we're going to have to ramp this because we've 1110 01:02:14,560 --> 01:02:16,720 Speaker 3: got to get to Joe Messina. But Arnz, I'll say this, 1111 01:02:17,520 --> 01:02:21,080 Speaker 3: if the economy, if the economy does take a turn 1112 01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:24,160 Speaker 3: for the worse, and if gas prices are still high 1113 01:02:24,560 --> 01:02:28,240 Speaker 3: and grocery prices are still out of reach, come you know, 1114 01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:31,720 Speaker 3: October and November, Republicans are going to lose. I mean, 1115 01:02:31,760 --> 01:02:36,800 Speaker 3: it's that simple. Because American voters they vote on pocketbook issues, 1116 01:02:37,280 --> 01:02:40,800 Speaker 3: and that's ultimately what's going to decide who controls Congress. 1117 01:02:40,880 --> 01:02:43,520 Speaker 3: Arnez got to run. Great call, though, Let's bring in 1118 01:02:43,520 --> 01:02:48,600 Speaker 3: our good friend national nationally syndicated radio hosts Joe Messina. Joe, 1119 01:02:48,680 --> 01:02:52,120 Speaker 3: I hope you're doing well today. And you heard Arnez 1120 01:02:52,120 --> 01:02:54,640 Speaker 3: there sort of rattling off. I mean what he said 1121 01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:58,600 Speaker 3: was not incorrect. You know it was tough job numbers 1122 01:02:58,640 --> 01:02:59,520 Speaker 3: that came out today. 1123 01:03:00,320 --> 01:03:00,560 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1124 01:03:01,200 --> 01:03:03,880 Speaker 19: Again, but I want to make sure that people understand 1125 01:03:03,880 --> 01:03:06,840 Speaker 19: if you've been watching some of these major corporations, and 1126 01:03:06,840 --> 01:03:09,200 Speaker 19: I'm not making excuses for Trump, let's just be clear, 1127 01:03:09,640 --> 01:03:13,760 Speaker 19: but you're watching these major corporations around the planet talking 1128 01:03:13,760 --> 01:03:17,840 Speaker 19: about AI and how they're incorporating AI into their day 1129 01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:19,880 Speaker 19: to day use, and a lot of these jobs that 1130 01:03:19,920 --> 01:03:23,040 Speaker 19: we're talking about being lost. What was it, you know, 1131 01:03:23,080 --> 01:03:27,400 Speaker 19: it was seven thousand jobs or something, whether it was Facebook. 1132 01:03:27,480 --> 01:03:29,800 Speaker 19: A lot of the big companies are laying off a 1133 01:03:29,840 --> 01:03:31,960 Speaker 19: bunch of people and it's not due to a lack 1134 01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:35,720 Speaker 19: of work, it's due to the AI issue. So I 1135 01:03:35,720 --> 01:03:38,240 Speaker 19: really would like to know how many, how much, or 1136 01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:42,120 Speaker 19: how many of those job numbers were due to AI 1137 01:03:42,240 --> 01:03:43,440 Speaker 19: slash technology. 1138 01:03:44,480 --> 01:03:46,440 Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, it's a fair question. I 1139 01:03:46,480 --> 01:03:49,600 Speaker 3: know that in the healthcare industry, and I'm not sure 1140 01:03:49,640 --> 01:03:52,360 Speaker 3: they don't break down, you know, AI. You know what 1141 01:03:52,400 --> 01:03:56,440 Speaker 3: AI was responsible for then, Also about nineteen thousand jobs 1142 01:03:56,480 --> 01:03:58,640 Speaker 3: in February, and a lot of that was due to 1143 01:03:58,800 --> 01:04:04,160 Speaker 3: a nurse's strike in California, So so you can kind 1144 01:04:04,160 --> 01:04:06,920 Speaker 3: of factor factor that into it as well. 1145 01:04:07,080 --> 01:04:07,280 Speaker 5: Well. 1146 01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:10,800 Speaker 19: You know, you see that there were there were mandatory 1147 01:04:10,960 --> 01:04:16,080 Speaker 19: raises given to here, you know, for the fast food industry, 1148 01:04:16,160 --> 01:04:21,600 Speaker 19: for the hospitality industry, for the again, for the medical industry, 1149 01:04:21,680 --> 01:04:23,360 Speaker 19: and I don't know how much of that, honestly, that 1150 01:04:23,440 --> 01:04:24,360 Speaker 19: the nurses. 1151 01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:25,800 Speaker 2: Got or were able to partake of. 1152 01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:28,360 Speaker 19: But again, a lot of these hospitals are cutting back, 1153 01:04:28,360 --> 01:04:32,320 Speaker 19: they're cutting back on people, they're going more to automated services. 1154 01:04:32,640 --> 01:04:34,880 Speaker 19: In my area, we have two major hospitals, and the 1155 01:04:34,960 --> 01:04:37,600 Speaker 19: nurses were concerned here about how many of the jobs 1156 01:04:37,640 --> 01:04:43,400 Speaker 19: were being taken over again by AI devices, robots, delivering food, 1157 01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:47,200 Speaker 19: delivering medications. There's a lot of there's a lot to this, 1158 01:04:47,360 --> 01:04:49,560 Speaker 19: and I'm todd if you were paying attention way back. 1159 01:04:49,680 --> 01:04:52,640 Speaker 19: I was in the technology world for twenty years and 1160 01:04:52,680 --> 01:04:56,240 Speaker 19: I remember the crying that went on when we brought 1161 01:04:56,280 --> 01:04:59,160 Speaker 19: in new equipment because the accounting department would go from 1162 01:04:59,160 --> 01:05:01,919 Speaker 19: ten to eleven twelve people down to three or four 1163 01:05:02,520 --> 01:05:04,280 Speaker 19: because the computers were doing a lot of the work 1164 01:05:04,280 --> 01:05:06,760 Speaker 19: that people were doing manually. So I think there's a 1165 01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:10,320 Speaker 19: lot more to this than just what people perceive as 1166 01:05:10,360 --> 01:05:11,400 Speaker 19: a bad economy. 1167 01:05:11,520 --> 01:05:14,760 Speaker 3: Think about ninety thousand. They're about ninety thousand jobs that 1168 01:05:14,840 --> 01:05:18,640 Speaker 3: were lost. One of those, by the way, came from 1169 01:05:18,880 --> 01:05:23,280 Speaker 3: an AI company, the company behind Square cash app. They 1170 01:05:23,320 --> 01:05:26,600 Speaker 3: cut their staff by forty percent because of AI. So 1171 01:05:26,680 --> 01:05:30,040 Speaker 3: those jobs and they laid off more than a thousand people. 1172 01:05:30,720 --> 01:05:33,520 Speaker 3: Four thousand people, rather more than four thousand people lost 1173 01:05:33,560 --> 01:05:37,480 Speaker 3: their jobs and they were replaced by artificial intelligence. 1174 01:05:37,640 --> 01:05:40,760 Speaker 19: To your point, Yeah, I mean, actually I did a 1175 01:05:40,760 --> 01:05:43,520 Speaker 19: piece the other night was pretty creepy about a restaurant 1176 01:05:43,560 --> 01:05:45,840 Speaker 19: that actually has robots that are serving people. 1177 01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:48,160 Speaker 2: And I'm not. 1178 01:05:48,160 --> 01:05:50,320 Speaker 19: So sure that's not a place i'd go right now. 1179 01:05:50,360 --> 01:05:51,440 Speaker 2: It just looked weird. 1180 01:05:51,560 --> 01:05:53,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'd be curious to know. You know, we have 1181 01:05:53,880 --> 01:05:56,840 Speaker 3: a couple of those here in the Memphis area, like Mexican. 1182 01:05:56,840 --> 01:06:01,840 Speaker 3: They're like Mexican restaurants, and I don't know, I'm just 1183 01:06:02,040 --> 01:06:05,120 Speaker 3: I haven't actually been to one of those restaurants. We 1184 01:06:05,120 --> 01:06:08,720 Speaker 3: were joking around though that you asked the little robot 1185 01:06:08,800 --> 01:06:13,320 Speaker 3: cable it was running a sombrero, and asked for more ice, 1186 01:06:13,520 --> 01:06:15,680 Speaker 3: and the thing just whipped around and took right out 1187 01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:19,720 Speaker 3: the front door. But no, I am curious, though, how 1188 01:06:19,840 --> 01:06:22,320 Speaker 3: is that working out? Because there are I was reading 1189 01:06:22,360 --> 01:06:24,680 Speaker 3: where a new McDonald's is coming up, and there's no 1190 01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:27,720 Speaker 3: there's no actual staffing right at the front. It's all 1191 01:06:27,840 --> 01:06:29,960 Speaker 3: you know, it's all automated. 1192 01:06:30,080 --> 01:06:31,560 Speaker 19: Right they look I don't know if you've been to 1193 01:06:31,600 --> 01:06:34,720 Speaker 19: one of those that actually looks like a humongous iPhone, 1194 01:06:35,080 --> 01:06:36,960 Speaker 19: So they make it as easy as they can for 1195 01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:39,000 Speaker 19: you to go ahead and hit the right buttons in 1196 01:06:39,080 --> 01:06:39,880 Speaker 19: order what you want. 1197 01:06:40,400 --> 01:06:41,480 Speaker 2: So yeah, I've seen that. 1198 01:06:41,600 --> 01:06:45,200 Speaker 19: I've also if you google it, there's also a small 1199 01:06:45,240 --> 01:06:46,120 Speaker 19: restaurant chain. 1200 01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:47,400 Speaker 2: That's totally automated. 1201 01:06:47,920 --> 01:06:50,720 Speaker 19: So you place your order and and the robot flips 1202 01:06:50,720 --> 01:06:52,880 Speaker 19: the hamburger.

I haven't heard anything too negative 1522 01:23:21,520 --> 01:23:22,120 Speaker 14: about it yet. 1523 01:23:22,240 --> 01:23:25,280 Speaker 3: The best fast food burger, it's got to be Burger King. 1524 01:23:25,720 --> 01:23:28,760 Speaker 3: I mean, if you're picking, like between Wendy's, McDonald's and 1525 01:23:28,760 --> 01:23:30,479 Speaker 3: Burger King, I'm going with the Whopper. 1526 01:23:30,720 --> 01:23:34,639 Speaker 14: Interesting, I've always stuck to the quarter pounder of cheese. 1527 01:23:34,880 --> 01:23:36,720 Speaker 3: Really, you see, I'm not a big cheese guy, and 1528 01:23:36,840 --> 01:23:38,880 Speaker 3: I should have not ordered it with cheese either.

So you've got to have 1532 01:23:45,880 --> 01:23:50,080 Speaker 3: all the components there, and then you've got to take 1533 01:23:50,120 --> 01:23:52,080 Speaker 3: that big you know, the big bite. 1534 01:23:52,200 --> 01:23:52,599 Speaker 2: It's true. 1535 01:23:52,640 --> 01:23:54,719 Speaker 14: I'm glad you.

It 1910 01:42:04,360 --> 01:42:08,240 Speaker 13: wasn't a demotion because this position is special envoy to 1911 01:42:08,360 --> 01:42:12,760 Speaker 13: the shield of the America's plural that's I've looked into 1912 01:42:12,760 --> 01:42:15,760 Speaker 13: that and literally is what I can see. This is 1913 01:42:15,760 --> 01:42:19,720 Speaker 13: a structural part of this agenda. Twenty thirty consolidation of 1914 01:42:19,760 --> 01:42:23,840 Speaker 13: the Americas, and with you know, President looking at taking 1915 01:42:23,880 --> 01:42:29,240 Speaker 13: over Greenland and Canada and now Venezuela. It's literally the 1916 01:42:29,280 --> 01:42:33,720 Speaker 13: globalist agenda in our face, and it scares the heck 1917 01:42:33,760 --> 01:42:36,320 Speaker 13: out of me because so many people have kind of 1918 01:42:36,400 --> 01:42:39,160 Speaker 13: pooh pooed this idea. But the global hast's been talking 1919 01:42:39,200 --> 01:42:40,320 Speaker 13: about this for a long time. 1920 01:42:41,280 --> 01:42:43,120 Speaker 3: Let me let me ask you about that. Do you 1921 01:42:43,160 --> 01:42:46,479 Speaker 3: think that President Trump is a globalist though, or do 1922 01:42:46,520 --> 01:42:49,160 Speaker 3: you believe that you know that he's just going into 1923 01:42:49,160 --> 01:42:53,879 Speaker 3: these countries like Iran, Venezuela looks like Cuba to protect 1924 01:42:53,920 --> 01:42:55,480 Speaker 3: American assets. 1925 01:42:55,960 --> 01:42:59,160 Speaker 13: Yeah, exactly, it's a false flag after false flag. I 1926 01:43:00,120 --> 01:43:03,240 Speaker 13: don't think we've got the same president we had a 1927 01:43:03,320 --> 01:43:07,000 Speaker 13: year ago. I think something has changed. I can't put 1928 01:43:07,000 --> 01:43:09,680 Speaker 13: my finger on it. I've got some ideas, but I 1929 01:43:09,680 --> 01:43:13,320 Speaker 13: guarantee you we're heading in the globalist to Jena. Look 1930 01:43:13,320 --> 01:43:16,800 Speaker 13: at Volunteer, Literally a surveillance grip being put upon us 1931 01:43:16,880 --> 01:43:20,840 Speaker 13: right now, and it's not It has nothing to do 1932 01:43:20,920 --> 01:43:23,960 Speaker 13: with the individual sovereignty. Our privacy is out the window. 1933 01:43:24,240 --> 01:43:26,800 Speaker 13: And look at all the I mean, yes, we had 1934 01:43:26,840 --> 01:43:29,760 Speaker 13: a lot of good things, but now look at all 1935 01:43:29,760 --> 01:43:32,120 Speaker 13: the people that are losing your jobs, not just because 1936 01:43:32,120 --> 01:43:35,799 Speaker 13: of AI companies going out of business because they can't compete. 1937 01:43:36,439 --> 01:43:40,080 Speaker 13: The tears are not a good I support tears. I 1938 01:43:40,120 --> 01:43:44,320 Speaker 13: support President Trump, but some things just don't work, and 1939 01:43:44,400 --> 01:43:46,639 Speaker 13: you have to acknowledge when it's not working, and you have. 1940 01:43:46,680 --> 01:43:51,880 Speaker 3: To pivot to that point. Just gosh, about a half 1941 01:43:51,880 --> 01:43:55,280 Speaker 3: an hour ago, word came out Blue Oval City, which 1942 01:43:55,360 --> 01:43:57,840 Speaker 3: is supposed to it was originally going to be what 1943 01:43:57,960 --> 01:44:03,120 Speaker 3: the largest production facila for electric vehicles electric trucks in 1944 01:44:03,840 --> 01:44:07,240 Speaker 3: Ford's history, and it was being built outside of Memphis, 1945 01:44:07,560 --> 01:44:10,200 Speaker 3: and of course, Mike, that didn't work out, so they 1946 01:44:10,320 --> 01:44:13,960 Speaker 3: switched over to I believe, regular truck. Now they're announcing 1947 01:44:13,960 --> 01:44:15,759 Speaker 3: they're laying off one hundred and fifty workers. 1948 01:44:16,840 --> 01:44:19,880 Speaker 13: I suspect they'll turn that into a manufacturing plant for 1949 01:44:20,320 --> 01:44:23,400 Speaker 13: cruise missiles, tanks. It's going to be put to use. 1950 01:44:23,439 --> 01:44:26,920 Speaker 13: It could be a detention facility, but I think it'll 1951 01:44:26,920 --> 01:44:31,680 Speaker 13: be building war machines sadly, and I'm look, I'm not 1952 01:44:31,720 --> 01:44:34,479 Speaker 13: a conspiracy theorist, but I've seen things over and over 1953 01:44:34,520 --> 01:44:36,599 Speaker 13: and over. I think we're looking at a false flag, 1954 01:44:36,960 --> 01:44:39,559 Speaker 13: probably an Operation Northwood type event where they bring down 1955 01:44:39,600 --> 01:44:42,559 Speaker 13: an airliner. I don't trust the CIA. I don't trust them. 1956 01:44:43,000 --> 01:44:47,400 Speaker 13: They've they've you know, they've been manipulating things for too long. 1957 01:44:47,600 --> 01:44:50,680 Speaker 3: Sorry, all right, Mike, got to run. We want to 1958 01:44:50,720 --> 01:44:53,000 Speaker 3: try to get more calls in. But thanks for thanks 1959 01:44:53,040 --> 01:44:56,439 Speaker 3: for listening, and thanks for the intel on the military stuff. 1960 01:44:57,439 --> 01:45:02,880 Speaker 3: Blue Oval City. Originally, this is crazy that the original 1961 01:45:02,920 --> 01:45:07,040 Speaker 3: timeline had trucks coming off the assembly line by this year, 1962 01:45:08,280 --> 01:45:11,680 Speaker 3: and now we understand that it may be as late 1963 01:45:11,720 --> 01:45:15,160 Speaker 3: as twenty twenty nine, and they're not going to be 1964 01:45:15,360 --> 01:45:19,439 Speaker 3: electric vehicles. They'll be gas powered trucks. But now they're 1965 01:45:19,560 --> 01:45:21,519 Speaker 3: starting to lay off a lot of people, so that's 1966 01:45:21,680 --> 01:45:25,920 Speaker 3: certainly not looking good in the auto industry. All right, 1967 01:45:26,040 --> 01:45:28,719 Speaker 3: nine oh one two six zero five nine two six. 1968 01:45:29,040 --> 01:45:32,120 Speaker 3: Let's go to Richard and o'calla, Florida, listening to us 1969 01:45:32,160 --> 01:45:35,160 Speaker 3: on WOCA. Hi, Richard, what's on your mind today? 1970 01:45:36,880 --> 01:45:37,760 Speaker 9: Elementric pad? 1971 01:45:38,000 --> 01:45:41,679 Speaker 21: This couple of small items. The one caller had said 1972 01:45:41,680 --> 01:45:43,479 Speaker 21: something about Trump had got us in the war that 1973 01:45:43,520 --> 01:45:48,360 Speaker 21: nobody wanted. That's only half true. Nobody in the right 1974 01:45:48,400 --> 01:45:50,280 Speaker 21: mind is jumping up down happy to get to go 1975 01:45:50,360 --> 01:45:52,720 Speaker 21: to war. We all got it and hated it, but 1976 01:45:52,840 --> 01:45:55,360 Speaker 21: yet it's like some of your callers have said, we've 1977 01:45:55,360 --> 01:45:58,840 Speaker 21: been at war for that country since nineteen seventy nine, 1978 01:45:59,000 --> 01:46:04,040 Speaker 21: and the sign of a strong leader he does watch right, 1979 01:46:04,439 --> 01:46:08,080 Speaker 21: even if it's unpopular. We're not happy you had to 1980 01:46:08,080 --> 01:46:10,280 Speaker 21: go to war, but we're happy that regime's out of power, 1981 01:46:10,560 --> 01:46:12,639 Speaker 21: and we're happy they took away their capability to make 1982 01:46:12,640 --> 01:46:14,920 Speaker 21: a nuclear bomb that they would have used against Us 1983 01:46:14,960 --> 01:46:18,439 Speaker 21: or Israel or whoever else they wanted to. And we're 1984 01:46:18,520 --> 01:46:22,240 Speaker 21: hoping that it gets finished and that that regime is 1985 01:46:22,240 --> 01:46:24,840 Speaker 21: completely gone. As far as being out of power, we'd 1986 01:46:24,840 --> 01:46:28,280 Speaker 21: love to see him surrender. On another issue, they've talked 1987 01:46:28,280 --> 01:46:33,479 Speaker 21: about the Republican primary in Texas. We don't want the 1988 01:46:33,560 --> 01:46:36,160 Speaker 21: Rhino to get it. Over the years, we've been sick 1989 01:46:36,560 --> 01:46:39,800 Speaker 21: with these rhinos half the time. They don't go with 1990 01:46:39,880 --> 01:46:42,640 Speaker 21: us when it's when, when they should, when it's necessary, 1991 01:46:42,640 --> 01:46:45,960 Speaker 21: when the chips are down. And the other guy they said, 1992 01:46:46,080 --> 01:46:48,200 Speaker 21: might have a little baggage, but I think the out 1993 01:46:48,200 --> 01:46:50,519 Speaker 21: of goo is a conservative guy. I forget his name, 1994 01:46:50,520 --> 01:46:52,400 Speaker 21: but they need to go with him passport, whatever his 1995 01:46:52,479 --> 01:46:55,639 Speaker 21: name was, no matter what he's got, because we definitely 1996 01:46:55,680 --> 01:46:58,080 Speaker 21: don't want the rhino. And that's just my opinion on 1997 01:46:58,080 --> 01:46:58,879 Speaker 21: those two issues. 1998 01:46:59,040 --> 01:47:02,320 Speaker 3: All right, Richard, thank you for the call, my friend, 1999 01:47:02,479 --> 01:47:06,759 Speaker 3: and certainly hope that hope that you have a great weekend. 2000 01:47:06,840 --> 01:47:07,160 Speaker 2: All right. 2001 01:47:07,240 --> 01:47:09,360 Speaker 3: Nine oh one two six to zero five to nine 2002 01:47:09,400 --> 01:47:12,400 Speaker 3: two six is our telephone number. That's nine oh one 2003 01:47:12,439 --> 01:47:15,439 Speaker 3: two six zero five nine two six. This is the 2004 01:47:15,479 --> 01:47:25,559 Speaker 3: Tod Sterns Show. By the way, you folks in Memphis, 2005 01:47:25,680 --> 01:47:29,280 Speaker 3: the White House just sharing this information on their social media. 2006 01:47:29,400 --> 01:47:33,439 Speaker 3: This is pretty remarkable.

By the way, 2017 01:48:10,960 --> 01:48:13,960 Speaker 3: big big doings at the White House today, Dylan, we've 2018 01:48:13,960 --> 01:48:16,800 Speaker 3: been talking about this for a long time, that there's 2019 01:48:17,280 --> 01:48:20,559 Speaker 3: there's just something broken right now with college sports. The 2020 01:48:20,760 --> 01:48:23,960 Speaker 3: nil that it's just it's a mess. So President Trump 2021 01:48:24,040 --> 01:48:28,679 Speaker 3: is convening a college sports roundtable today at the White 2022 01:48:28,720 --> 01:48:30,599 Speaker 3: House and they're going to get to the bottom of it. 2023 01:48:30,640 --> 01:48:33,320 Speaker 3: And what I what I love is that President Trump 2024 01:48:33,360 --> 01:48:38,519 Speaker 3: is serving as the chair. Governor Ron DeSantis, Florida vice chair. 2025 01:48:38,680 --> 01:48:42,679 Speaker 3: New York Yankees president Randy Levine also a vice chair, 2026 01:48:44,000 --> 01:48:46,320 Speaker 3: and it looks like they're going to try to hopefully 2027 01:48:46,400 --> 01:48:48,400 Speaker 3: fix what's broken in college sports. 2028 01:48:48,720 --> 01:48:50,320 Speaker 14: Yeah, I think it's a little sad that it has 2029 01:48:50,360 --> 01:48:53,479 Speaker 14: to come to this because, you know, the NCAA should 2030 01:48:53,479 --> 01:48:55,960 Speaker 14: have been fixing this. I mean, it's obviously there's a 2031 01:48:55,960 --> 01:48:58,880 Speaker 14: lot of money involved, and that's sort of the problem. 2032 01:48:59,320 --> 01:49:02,160 Speaker 14: You know, at this point, there's too many money. There's 2033 01:49:02,160 --> 01:49:05,200 Speaker 14: too much money going to players that are not getting 2034 01:49:05,240 --> 01:49:07,840 Speaker 14: an education and they're leaving their school and the fan 2035 01:49:07,920 --> 01:49:11,360 Speaker 14: experience is bad. So I'm glad this is happening, but 2036 01:49:11,439 --> 01:49:13,519 Speaker 14: I'm also sad that it's come to this. 2037 01:49:13,720 --> 01:49:16,240 Speaker 3: You know, Nick Saban, and here's the thing. Nick Saban 2038 01:49:16,280 --> 01:49:19,360 Speaker 3: didn't retire from college football because he was tired of coaching. 2039 01:49:19,520 --> 01:49:22,160 Speaker 3: Now He just saw what was coming and he said, 2040 01:49:22,200 --> 01:49:25,080 Speaker 3: this is not sustainable. Want he wanted out, Yeah, he 2041 01:49:25,120 --> 01:49:27,280 Speaker 3: wanted out. So Saban's going to be their Urban Meyer 2042 01:49:27,400 --> 01:49:31,759 Speaker 3: Mac Brown from North Carolina. I mean, it's a huge 2043 01:49:31,760 --> 01:49:35,440 Speaker 3: group of folks. Why do they invite the NBA commissioner, 2044 01:49:35,520 --> 01:49:36,599 Speaker 3: That's what I don't understand. 2045 01:49:36,640 --> 01:49:37,479 Speaker 14: That's a great question. 2046 01:49:37,800 --> 01:49:40,519 Speaker 3: That makes no sense in all. Oh, Condoleeza Rice is 2047 01:49:40,560 --> 01:49:42,479 Speaker 3: going to be there. You know, did you realize that 2048 01:49:42,560 --> 01:49:46,040 Speaker 3: she's also a minority owner in the Denver Broncos. 2049 01:49:45,640 --> 01:49:46,479 Speaker 14: I did not know that. 2050 01:49:46,560 --> 01:49:47,320 Speaker 2: How about that. 2051 01:49:47,920 --> 01:49:51,320 Speaker 3: Ted Cruz is going to be there, Eric Schmidt and 2052 01:49:51,600 --> 01:49:55,320 Speaker 3: a lot of let's see SEC coaches are going to 2053 01:49:55,400 --> 01:49:58,480 Speaker 3: be there, so or SEC teams are going to be representative. 2054 01:49:58,560 --> 01:50:00,679 Speaker 14: Yeah, I mean some of these older coaches, Nick Saban, 2055 01:50:00,840 --> 01:50:04,240 Speaker 14: Urban Meyer, those are the coaches that they they built 2056 01:50:04,479 --> 01:50:08,120 Speaker 14: great college football teams on recruiting and coaching, just being 2057 01:50:08,160 --> 01:50:10,519 Speaker 14: a good leader, and now none of that really matters 2058 01:50:10,520 --> 01:50:11,320 Speaker 14: because of the money. 2059 01:50:11,920 --> 01:50:14,040 Speaker 3: Well, look at what's happening right now, by the way 2060 01:50:14,120 --> 01:50:17,800 Speaker 3: with Memphis Tigers. You know where we had one of 2061 01:50:17,880 --> 01:50:22,840 Speaker 3: the preeminent basketball programs in America and now it's what 2062 01:50:22,960 --> 01:50:24,439 Speaker 3: we've I mean, we. 2063 01:50:24,360 --> 01:50:26,320 Speaker 14: Can't sell out, We can't sell tickets. No one wants 2064 01:50:26,360 --> 01:50:26,479 Speaker 14: to go. 2065 01:50:26,680 --> 01:50:30,080 Speaker 3: Nobody's going to the games. The players leave after one year. 2066 01:50:30,560 --> 01:50:33,720 Speaker 3: I mean, it's just And they had senior night last night. 2067 01:50:34,160 --> 01:50:35,679 Speaker 3: Nobody knew who the seniors were. 2068 01:50:35,840 --> 01:50:37,320 Speaker 14: Yeah, I'm pretty sure they lost too. 2069 01:50:37,439 --> 01:50:40,920 Speaker 3: And they lost, they got again, they lost again. It 2070 01:50:40,960 --> 01:50:43,840 Speaker 3: will be It's the worst season almost, I think, in 2071 01:50:43,840 --> 01:50:47,639 Speaker 3: one hundred years of the program. But again, it's nil 2072 01:50:47,840 --> 01:50:50,360 Speaker 3: and it's just completely ruined it. And here's the problem 2073 01:50:50,400 --> 01:50:52,960 Speaker 3: with Memphis. They're in the American League, which is a 2074 01:50:52,960 --> 01:50:56,760 Speaker 3: cramp conference anyway. We have more NIL money than any 2075 01:50:56,800 --> 01:50:58,920 Speaker 3: other team in the league, and we're I think we're 2076 01:50:58,920 --> 01:51:00,439 Speaker 3: not even gonna make the top two and we may 2077 01:51:00,479 --> 01:51:04,479 Speaker 3: not even make the conference tournament. That's how bad it is. 2078 01:51:04,560 --> 01:51:07,200 Speaker 14: Yeah, and that goes for both football and basketball. So 2079 01:51:08,360 --> 01:51:10,840 Speaker 14: we'll see. You know, we have a new football coach, 2080 01:51:11,080 --> 01:51:13,719 Speaker 14: so I'm hoping things are going to get turned around there. 2081 01:51:13,880 --> 01:51:16,880 Speaker 14: I know we lost our coach, Ryan Silverfield to Arkansas, 2082 01:51:17,240 --> 01:51:20,120 Speaker 14: but jeez see, I don't know how happy they are 2083 01:51:20,120 --> 01:51:20,720 Speaker 14: about that either. 2084 01:51:20,760 --> 01:51:25,479 Speaker 3: But Notre Dame Iowa State, the athletic directors from Notre 2085 01:51:25,560 --> 01:51:29,920 Speaker 3: Dame Iowa State, Indiana Wake Forest, Oklahoma, and are going 2086 01:51:30,000 --> 01:51:35,320 Speaker 3: to be there. Notre Dame, presidents of Clemson, Nebraska, Tennessee, Utah, Georgia, 2087 01:51:36,120 --> 01:51:38,600 Speaker 3: and Western Virginia and Kansas are all going to be 2088 01:51:38,600 --> 01:51:40,640 Speaker 3: at the meeting as well. Something tells me they're going 2089 01:51:40,680 --> 01:51:43,040 Speaker 3: to be talking more about not just football, but just 2090 01:51:43,040 --> 01:51:45,519 Speaker 3: sports in general, and how do you fix it INIL. 2091 01:51:45,720 --> 01:51:47,479 Speaker 3: I wish I would have been invited.
