1
00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:07,080
Speaker 1: The voice of free speech, the truth deliveredy common sense

2
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:08,760
Speaker 1: for the American people.

3
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:13,440
Speaker 2: Welcome to the Scott Jenny Show.

4
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:17,599
Speaker 3: The Senator from Montana Tim Shee He has given one

5
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,440
Speaker 3: of the most important speeches that you will hear on

6
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 3: Iran happened on the Senate floor yesterday. We will bring

7
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 3: it to you in its entirety. Truly one of the

8
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 3: most compelling orations I've ever heard in Washington. You do

9
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,920
Speaker 3: not want to miss this. Another anti Semitic hate crime

10
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 3: in New York City. But will the media admit it?

11
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:40,520
Speaker 3: Stand by for news on that. And It's Friday Punditry,

12
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:44,560
Speaker 3: North Carolina political guru and my old friend Jonathan Felts

13
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:48,200
Speaker 3: is here to run through the weekend politics. Today is Friday,

14
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,519
Speaker 3: July the twenty fourth. I'm Scott Jennings broadcasting for Salem

15
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 3: and we are live today in your nation's capital. Now

16
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 3: tonight I'll appear on CNN as we cover the rescheduled

17
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 3: White House Respondent's dinner. Join us at eight o'clock this evening.

18
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:06,559
Speaker 3: On this day, nineteen fifty nine, one of the more

19
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 3: unusual diplomatic exchanges in modern history took place, so called

20
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 3: kitchen debate between Vice President Richard Nixon and Soviet Premier

21
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 3: Nikita Khrushchev happened in Moscow in the middle of an

22
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 3: American exhibition to increase cultural communication between the two nations.

23
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 3: Listen to this cut thirteen and this increase in communication.

24
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 3: We'll teach us some things, and it will teach you

25
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 3: some things too.

26
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 4: That's well, we don't know everything.

27
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 3: I don't know everything.

28
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,119
Speaker 5: Then I would say that you know absolutely nothing about communism,

29
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 5: nothing except fear of it.

30
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 3: Well, well, every word that you have said, every word

31
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 3: that you have said, has been taken down.

32
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 1: And I will promise you that every word that you

33
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: have said, well, they were parted.

34
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 4: In the United States, and they will see you say

35
00:01:58,320 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 4: that on television.

36
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 3: Nixon and khrushchiev there for a few minutes, and the

37
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 3: confines of a mocked up modern kitchen really something. The

38
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 3: diplomatic gloves came off and they headed out over which

39
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 3: system was superior, communism or capitalism. Now, sixty seven years later,

40
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 3: I think we know the answer, well, at least most

41
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 3: of us do. In today's news, the modern communists continue

42
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 3: their attempts to infect American politics as they take over

43
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:30,959
Speaker 3: the Democratic Party. But there are American patriots fighting this infection.

44
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 3: President Trump spoke in Georgia this week and made clear

45
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 3: the states of the fight. Cut fourteen.

46
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:41,639
Speaker 6: Communism is. In my opinion, communism is the single greatest

47
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 6: threat to our country and its history, including even World

48
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 6: War One and World War Two.

49
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: Pearl Harbor nine to eleven.

50
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 6: I think it's the greatest threat that I've ever seen

51
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 6: to our country. These people the Stone called crazy, and

52
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 6: it is the enemy of the free people. Everywhere and

53
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 6: everywhere in the world you see it happening, and every

54
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,839
Speaker 6: time it starts to happen, the areas where it's at,

55
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 6: whether it's Blue states, you see the Blue states are

56
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 6: all going bed. They're all going bad because communism is

57
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,360
Speaker 6: a loser, the concept, the policy. It's a loser, and

58
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,080
Speaker 6: it always has been and it always will be.

59
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 3: And on Capitol Hill this week, Representative Nicole Malatokis of

60
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:26,959
Speaker 3: New York gave powerful testimony on her own family's experience

61
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 3: fleeing communist Cuba. Cut fifteen.

62
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:34,079
Speaker 4: My mother fled Communist Cuba and they stole my grandfather's

63
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 4: gas station is small business.

64
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 1: They stole his home. My mother came to.

65
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 4: The United States and never saw our father again, that's

66
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 4: the reality. It's that they steal from people. They steal

67
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 4: from you. Redistribution of wealth, of course, but they do

68
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 4: it to make themselves powerful and wealthy, the people at

69
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 4: the top, while everyone lives in misery. Sadly, too many

70
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 4: people born here in the United States don't know what

71
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 4: it's like in other countries. They don't know what it's like,

72
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 4: and they don't appreciate or here in the United States,

73
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 4: with the freedoms, with the liberties, with the opportunities that

74
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 4: you have.

75
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 3: This is the fight, folks, and one of our two

76
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 3: major parties has given up, or more correctly given in.

77
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:17,599
Speaker 3: Communism promises equality, but it delivers equal misery. It crushes ambition,

78
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 3: it punishes success, confiscates your property, and it concentrates power

79
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 3: in the hands of an unaccountable few. Everywhere it has

80
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 3: been tried, the pattern is the same. Shortages, censorship, secret police,

81
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:38,600
Speaker 3: prison camps, and graves graves by the millions. Because communism

82
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 3: doesn't merely misunderstand economics, it misunderstands human nature. Freedom allows

83
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 3: ordinary people to build extraordinary lives, but communism forces extraordinary

84
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:54,919
Speaker 3: people to live under the boot of the state. And

85
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 3: if you're within the sound of my voice today, never

86
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 3: forget it, and please please counsel children not to fall

87
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 3: for the lefts propaganda. Here's some capitalism to us. By

88
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,480
Speaker 3: the way, initial jobless claims this week fell to their

89
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 3: lowest level since nineteen sixty nine, signs of a stable

90
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 3: employment situation. The lower the number on this figure, the

91
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 3: better for the US economy. So don't let the communist

92
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 3: democrats tell you we're living in an economic healthscape. Simply

93
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:25,920
Speaker 3: isn't true. New York City, another attack outside a synagogue yesterday.

94
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 3: Two people stabbed in broad daylight. Here's how CNN reported it.

95
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 3: Cut twelve right in New York.

96
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 7: Police are investigating whether two stabbings are hate crimes. So

97
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 7: this will say a fifty one year old man stab

98
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:43,480
Speaker 7: an Asian man and a Jewish man multiple times. Please

99
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:47,040
Speaker 7: say the attacks happened yesterday afternoon, and we're completely undervoked.

100
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,159
Speaker 7: They say mental health may have been a factory in

101
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,719
Speaker 7: all this, but a scary situation there.

102
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 3: Now for what was left out of this report, some

103
00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 3: might call this critical information. The assailant was yelling alu

104
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 3: akbar while he stabbed the victims. Now both are expected

105
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:10,240
Speaker 3: to survive, thank goodness. One was Asian, the other was Jewish.

106
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 3: But this is obviously an anti Semitic hate crime in

107
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:17,160
Speaker 3: a city where the spike in such crimes is undeniable.

108
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 3: This week, the mayor of New York, Zoron Mamdani, spent

109
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 3: most of his time demonizing and lying about the Jewish people,

110
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 3: and now we have alu akbar stabbings in front of

111
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 3: a synagogue. Even if you are but moderately good at math,

112
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 3: you can see the connection. Jewish leaders held a press

113
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 3: conference this morning to decry this anti Semitic violence. Rabbi

114
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 3: Levine is the rabbi of the Jewish Center on Manhattan's

115
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 3: West Side. The stabbing occurred two hundred feet outside of

116
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 3: his front door. Take a listen to this cut sixteen.

117
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 8: You know, when I was growing up, the only time

118
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 8: we saw security outside of my synagogue or outside of

119
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 8: my Jewish day school was when the mayor came to speak.

120
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 5: The police were there to protect him.

121
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 8: Today, every time the mayor speaks, we need the police

122
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,840
Speaker 8: to protect us.

123
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 3: Powerful words there from a man who leads a heartbroken

124
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 3: and scared community. Mom Donni is the smiling new face

125
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 3: of the Democratic Party. This violence doesn't bother him. In

126
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 3: the slightest that sure sect doesn't bother his supporters, and

127
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 3: it's only going to get worse as Democrats running for

128
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 3: president in twenty twenty eight seek to earn the favor

129
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 3: of this bloodthirsty anti Semitic mob that elected Mam Donnie

130
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 3: in the first place. It's disgusting, but I suspect that

131
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 3: most Democrats won't stop the propaganda that has led to

132
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 3: such Jew hatred and violence. And for all of the

133
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 3: thoughts and prayers liberals in New York like Brad Lander

134
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 3: and others who have enabled this hate, well, I don't

135
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 3: want to get in trouble with Brendan Carr over at

136
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 3: the FCC, but you can imagine what we like to

137
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 3: say and what rightfully scare Jews across this country are

138
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 3: saying today. While you slept, new Trump tariffs took effect overnight,

139
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 3: duties ranging from ten to twelve and a half percent

140
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 3: on goods coming in from more than eighty countries. These

141
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 3: new tariffs replace the ones struck down by the Supreme Court.

142
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 3: The administration says the policy will protect American industries from

143
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 3: unfair foreign competition. Critics say we'll raise the costs for

144
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 3: businesses and consumers either way, President Trump continues his fundamental

145
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 3: reshaping of American trade policy. We have an incredible show

146
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,839
Speaker 3: lined up for you today. In just a few minutes,

147
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 3: after we take our next commercial break, we're going to

148
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:45,680
Speaker 3: spend five and a half minutes bringing you something that

149
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:49,199
Speaker 3: we rarely do, an entire floor speech from the United

150
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 3: States Senate. We don't often play that much tape from

151
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 3: individual politicians. But after we went off the air yesterday,

152
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:01,839
Speaker 3: I was perusing my news clips and my social media feed,

153
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 3: and I came across a speech from Montana Senator Tim Sheehey.

154
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 3: And as I listened to democrats and media pundits broadcast

155
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 3: and carry water for the Iranian regime, I listened to

156
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 3: this sheihe speech, and his words were so powerful in

157
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 3: defeating this nonsense that I felt compelled to bring it

158
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:27,600
Speaker 3: all to you. We're going to play it after this

159
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 3: next commercial break. I want you to listen to every

160
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,440
Speaker 3: word in its entirety. Now, when it comes to supplements,

161
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 3: two things matter the most. Does this work? Can I

162
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 3: trust it? Now? I could tell you that it works

163
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,080
Speaker 3: and that you should trust it, and I often do

164
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 3: when it comes to relief factor, But I thought maybe

165
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:45,840
Speaker 3: it might be more meaningful if we just let our

166
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 3: customers do it. I get a lot of stories from

167
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 3: people who are using Relief Factor. Here's one to share

168
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 3: with you. His name is Jim, and Jim tells us

169
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 3: I ran out of relief Factor twice. Both times. What

170
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 3: happened to Jim? His aches, stiffness, and pain. It all

171
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 3: came back, Jim says, and I quote, you know something's

172
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,559
Speaker 3: working when you run out of it and the aches

173
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,959
Speaker 3: and pains return immediately. Now, once he restarted, he says,

174
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 3: he fell better again. It's easy to find out, by

175
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 3: the way, if you could be the next Relief Factor

176
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 3: story here on the show. Because a three week supply

177
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:25,200
Speaker 3: of relief Factor is only seventeen dollars and seventy six cents.

183
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 3: cannot recommend it highly enough. And maybe you'll soon be

184
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 3: sharing your Relief Factor story. That sheeehe speech is coming

185
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,200
Speaker 3: up next, stay tuned to Scott Jennings here on Salem.

186
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 3: Thank you in its entirety, we present the floor speech

187
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 3: of Montana Senator Tim Sheehey on the stakes in the

188
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 3: fight against Iran. Turn your radio up here on the

189
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 3: Scott Chenning Show.

190
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 1: The senator from Montana, Thank you, Miss President.

191
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 2: Yesterday we saw the President United States and many others

192
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 2: at Dover Air Force Base presiding over a ceremony that

193
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 2: is very sacred to those of us who served, and

194
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 2: that is a dignified return of remains from the war zone.

195
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 2: And that process happens beginning in the war zone through

196
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:29,600
Speaker 2: Dover to the hometown of our fallen heroes. I participated

197
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:33,199
Speaker 2: in many of those ceremonies myself, to include carrying friends

198
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 2: of mine off the plane. One of those isma's bracelet

199
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:47,319
Speaker 2: he was cut in half by an Iranian EFP. This

200
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 2: regime that we are fighting does not care about our

201
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:56,840
Speaker 2: partners in politics. They don't care who you voted for,

202
00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 2: who you pray to, or where you live. They won't

203
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 2: do kill all of us, and they don't just say it,

204
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 2: they actually do it, and they've been doing it for

205
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,200
Speaker 2: forty seven years. This is a war of choice. The

206
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 2: Democrats are correct. It's a war of choice that was

207
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 2: begun by a radical, lunatic band of terrorists that took

208
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 2: over a beautiful nation forty seven years ago, took it

209
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 2: over with brutality, force and savagery. And the second they

210
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:29,840
Speaker 2: took it over, they didn't free their people. They didn't

211
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,440
Speaker 2: unleash the largest oil reserves in the world to build

212
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 2: schools and bridges. They took it over to murder their

213
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 2: own people and to spread their disgusting ideology.

214
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 1: Across the world.

215
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 2: And that is exactly what they have been doing. They

216
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 2: don't just say it and talk about it. You don't

217
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 2: have to believe what they say. You can simply watch

218
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 2: what they've done. They have attacked families, women, children, innocent people.

219
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 2: They don't just attack them and kill them. They rape them,

220
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:03,680
Speaker 2: They skin them alive on camera. They celebrate it. They

221
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 2: honor those people who do disgusting things that.

222
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 1: We would put in jail for the.

223
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,840
Speaker 2: Rest of their lives in this country. And they do

224
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 2: it for fun, and they pay them money to do it,

225
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:13,520
Speaker 2: and their heroes to that nation.

226
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 1: They've done it to friends of mine.

227
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 2: They've done into families who've been in this chamber and

228
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:23,680
Speaker 2: the fact that we sit here and listen to elected

229
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:27,800
Speaker 2: officials of this country defend these lunatics who want us

230
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 2: all dead. They want all of you dead. They want

231
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,960
Speaker 2: all of us dead. They don't want us to disappear

232
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 2: with a snap of a finger. They want us to

233
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 2: be raped, burned alive, and cut into pieces. Watch the

234
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 2: video from October seventh. That's what they want to happen.

235
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 2: From Maine to San Diego, from Seattle to Miami. They

236
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:51,559
Speaker 2: want this country turned into a burning puska of its

237
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 2: former self. And you don't have to theorize that. That's

238
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,960
Speaker 2: what they do. From the nineteen eighty three Barracks bombing,

239
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,560
Speaker 2: what two hundred eighty Marines were vaporized in the morning, from.

240
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 1: USS coal, the Achille Laurel, to every.

241
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:08,320
Speaker 2: Terrorist attack from the Huthis Hesbelo Hamas. These are not

242
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 2: humanitarian freedom organizations. They are death dealing cults, and they

243
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 2: want all of us to die brutal deaths. William Buckley

244
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 2: was abducted in nineteen eighty five an American military officer.

245
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 2: He was skinned alive on camera by the Iranians.

246
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 1: American prisoners of war who were captured, they were never

247
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 1: called prisoners of war because they were captured by lunatic terrorists, so.

248
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 2: They were not subject to the Geneva Convention. They were

249
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 2: captured and murdered, power drills through their brains.

250
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: This is an Irat.

251
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 2: These are families that have dealt with this, and they

252
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,840
Speaker 2: have never gotten a single dime. These families have never

253
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 2: gotten restitution. And not a single president has ever stood

254
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 2: up to them. Love Donald Trumper, hate him, love.

255
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 1: His policies, hate ice, love ice whatever.

256
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 2: There's never been a single president who has stood up

257
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 2: to Iran and hit back. For forty seven years, our

258
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 2: troops and our families have been absorbing attack after it,

259
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 2: attack after attack all over the world. And their radical

260
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 2: ideology is not stop at the person Gulf, doesn't stop

261
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 2: at Tel Aviv.

262
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 1: They want to do this everywhere. It's a global.

263
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 2: Radical ideology and we've been fighting it for half a century.

264
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 2: We didn't start this war, we did not, but we

265
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:23,400
Speaker 2: will finish it. And forever wars. They're not popular with

266
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 2: anybody these days, both sides that I love to.

267
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 1: Attack our forever wars.

268
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 2: And I can promise you, being someone overseas were in

269
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 2: the uniform. When you're fighting for your country, you don't

270
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 2: care what parties in office, but you're fighting to defend

271
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 2: your country.

272
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 1: You turn on the news and.

273
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,920
Speaker 2: See your elected officials stabbing you in the back, telling

274
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 2: you that you're failing.

275
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:41,720
Speaker 1: That you've failed every goal of the War's what I

276
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 1: just heard. Last time I checked.

277
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 2: We've wiped these bastards out an occasional missile strike and

278
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 2: boats in the straits. That's not military strength. Those are

279
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,680
Speaker 2: the flailings of a failing empire. Those are the flailings

280
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 2: of a nation and collapse because they deserve it. So

281
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 2: I encourage our colleagues on both sides of the aisle.

282
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 2: Whatever's political convenient, whatever plays well on Twitter or Facebook,

283
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 2: think about the people.

284
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 1: Who are deployed right now.

285
00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 2: Standing on that wall with a loaded weapon, who volunteered

286
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 2: to defend our country, in our way of life, because

287
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,120
Speaker 2: they're there defending us in a just war. Because we

288
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 2: did not start a war with the Ranian Revolutionary Guard.

289
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 1: They started with US forty seven.

290
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 2: Years ago, and their attacks have gone unanswered for half

291
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 2: a century. It's time to fix this problem and make

292
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 2: sure another generations of Americans does not have to fight

293
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,040
Speaker 2: this murderous, savage adversary.

294
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 1: Thank you, miss President.

295
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 2: The voice of reason, common sense for the American people.

296
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 1: This is the Scott Jenny Show.

297
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 3: It is Friday, July on to twenty fourth. Thanks for

298
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:49,880
Speaker 3: listening to the Scott Jennings Show. Common sense indeed for

299
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 3: the American people. We'll see if the people of Ohio

300
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 3: have any common sense. This November, one of the biggest

301
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:59,200
Speaker 3: battle grounds in America will be fought in the Cincinnati

302
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:04,840
Speaker 3: area in Ohio's first congressional district. The Democrat congressman there

303
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 3: is named Greg Landsman, but after redistricting added to conservative

304
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 3: Warren and Clinton Counties to this district, this is now

305
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:17,200
Speaker 3: a district that Donald Trump would have carried in twenty

306
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:21,159
Speaker 3: twenty four. Republicans here have nominated Air Force veteran and

307
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 3: former CIA officer Eric Conroy, who won his primary overwhelmingly

308
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 3: with President Trump's endorsement. Democrats here, predictably with an incumbent,

309
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,439
Speaker 3: have the advantage in money, but Republicans believe this is

310
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 3: one of their best pickup opportunities anywhere in America. Let's

311
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:41,399
Speaker 3: listen to what the Republican Eric Conroy is communicating to

312
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:42,880
Speaker 3: the people of Ohio.

313
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 9: Cut two, mission ready, proven under pressure, Eric Conroy served

314
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,960
Speaker 9: in the CIA and Air Force fighting overseas. Now Conroy

315
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,399
Speaker 9: is ready to take on Washington. Endorsed by Senator Bernie Marino,

316
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,800
Speaker 9: Conservative Eric Conroy for Congress.

317
00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 1: I'm Eric Conroy and I approved this message is.

318
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:03,600
Speaker 3: Now is Eric Conroy from Ohio. Eric, Welcome into the

319
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 3: Scott Jennings Show. We'll start here. Why did you decide

320
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 3: to run for Congress this year?

321
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:13,280
Speaker 10: Well, Scott, Firstly, as you mentioned, the district has been

322
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 10: redrawn into a fifty three percent Republican district, which makes

323
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:18,879
Speaker 10: it one of the few flippable seats around the country

324
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 10: and one that could determine not only control of the House,

325
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 10: but whether or not the President gets impeached. So make

326
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,919
Speaker 10: no mistake, this is Trump's alamo these midterms, and that

327
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,639
Speaker 10: battleground runs right here through the Cincinnati area. And I'm

328
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,200
Speaker 10: thrilled to have the President's endorsement, along with the support

329
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 10: of Speaker Johnson and the National Party. In Really, for me,

330
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,720
Speaker 10: I've dedicated my life to service, serving fourteen years in

331
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,080
Speaker 10: the Air Force and the CIA, and I view this

332
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 10: as that next chapter in a life of service. And

333
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 10: my famili's called this region home for over one hundred

334
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,199
Speaker 10: and thirty years, and I believe a common sense conservative

335
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:53,439
Speaker 10: is what's to take an into the future and the

336
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,320
Speaker 10: current incomemic. Greg Landsman is anything but common sense. This

337
00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 10: is a guy who votes for men and women's sports,

338
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,880
Speaker 10: the largest tax and create in American history, and wants

339
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 10: to defund ice and DHS. And this is simply not

340
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 10: the common sense leader we need here for southwest Ohio.

341
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,200
Speaker 10: Greg Landsman is not the moderate he claims, and it's

342
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:10,960
Speaker 10: time for him to go.

343
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, Eric, I think this is one of the most

344
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,200
Speaker 3: critical parts of this conversation in this campaign, and you're

345
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 3: seeing it, I think from some Democrats around the country

346
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 3: who want to portray this phony moderate facade. That's what

347
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:29,200
Speaker 3: they want people to believe, But underneath the hood, they're

348
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 3: no different than every radical liberal Democrat out there that

349
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 3: you're sort of mortified by on your television. Every single day.

350
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:40,359
Speaker 3: He casts the same votes as every radical liberal in

351
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:44,199
Speaker 3: the House Democratic Conference. He would impeach Donald Trump. He

352
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:47,120
Speaker 3: does not want to cut anybody's taxes, So you get

353
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 3: the same radicalism under the hood, but this moderate facade

354
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 3: on top. To me, that's really the challenge of your

355
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 3: campaign making people understand that there's no moderate Democrat here

356
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:01,240
Speaker 3: or anywhere. Really, that's gone out of the Democratic Party.

357
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,480
Speaker 3: And if you were ever someone who believed yourself to

358
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 3: want a moderate or conservative Democrat, I'm sorry they're not

359
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:08,520
Speaker 3: giving that to you. You need to come to the

360
00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 3: Republican Party. Are you hearing that talk among your voters

361
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 3: out there in the first District of Ohio?

362
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,119
Speaker 10: Absolutely, Scott, this is a guy who voted with Biden

363
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 10: nearly ninety eight percent of the time. This is not

364
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:22,119
Speaker 10: someone who reaches across the aisle to come up with

365
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:24,919
Speaker 10: the practical solutions we need for the future. And what

366
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 10: Greig Landsman has done, like other Democrats around the country,

367
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 10: is they campaign here is a moderate, they lie to voters,

368
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:32,720
Speaker 10: and then they go and vote as a leftist in

369
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 10: DC and you know, like the Cincinnati area and other

370
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,400
Speaker 10: seats around the country. This is a guy who's using

371
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 10: a Southwest Ohio seat to push leftist ideas from California,

372
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,640
Speaker 10: and that simply does not represent the values of this district.

373
00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:49,239
Speaker 3: Eric Conroy is our guest. He's the Republican running in

374
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 3: one of the most targeted congressional districts in the country.

375
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,000
Speaker 3: It's Ohio's first district. This is in the Cincinnati area

376
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 3: and surrounding counties. A lot of money is going to

377
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 3: be spent. Eric, the Democrat are going to have to

378
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 3: pour resources in here. I think the National Republican Congressional

379
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 3: Committee they're committed to this as well. Talk to us

380
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:11,399
Speaker 3: about the financial resources that you're going to need, and

381
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,120
Speaker 3: where can people find you if they want to get

382
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:19,159
Speaker 3: engaged here in this This is not hyperbole. This particular election,

383
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 3: this race in Ohio may be the race that determines

384
00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 3: whether Republicans hold the majority, and as you said, Eric,

385
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 3: whether Donald Trump gets impeached and all of his progress

386
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 3: goes away. Tell people where to find you and talk

387
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:32,920
Speaker 3: to us a little bit about the you know, the

388
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 3: the obscene amounts of money the Libs are going to

389
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:36,360
Speaker 3: throw at you in this campaign.

390
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 10: Yeah, of course. Well, firstly, we also have a governor's

391
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 10: race and a Senate race here on the ballot in Ohio.

392
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:44,439
Speaker 10: So we think we're going to have the turnout that

393
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,200
Speaker 10: we need to win the race, but we do need

394
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 10: the Republican base to show up this November to win.

395
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,120
Speaker 10: And yes, you're right, there is going to be quite

396
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 10: a bit of funds or really throw the report that

397
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,400
Speaker 10: the Congressional Leadership Fund has allocated four million dollars from

398
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,360
Speaker 10: media time for the race.

399
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 1: This fallen.

400
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:05,600
Speaker 10: Furthermore, the recent Supreme Court campaign finance ruling really levels

401
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:09,400
Speaker 10: the playing field for challengers versus incumbents, and really Republicans

402
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 10: and really all Americans should be very happy with that

403
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,880
Speaker 10: ruin because it increases free speech and it allows us

404
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:19,000
Speaker 10: to really expose incumbents like Greg Lansman. This is a

405
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 10: guy who violated the Stock Act in twenty twenty five,

406
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:27,199
Speaker 10: rewrote year's worth of financial disclosure reports, hiding dozens of

407
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 10: trades worth over a million dollars, and now he's out

408
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,720
Speaker 10: here saying that he's against insider trading. It's absolutely ridiculous.

409
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 10: The brazen dishonesty of wind of voters and trying to

410
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:38,840
Speaker 10: get away with it to get back in the office

411
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 10: is absurd. And it's time to bring dignity and ethics

412
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 10: back to the seat in southwest Ohio.

413
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, you mentioned the issue of turnout, and I go

414
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,199
Speaker 3: all over the country, Eric, and you know, this is

415
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 3: one thing I continue to hear from Republican leaders. I

416
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,800
Speaker 3: think there is a concern about turnout. You pointed out

417
00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 3: that Ohio has two major statewide elections going on that

418
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 3: could help. But I am a little concerned about average

419
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 3: Republicans who voted for Donald Trump, love the idea of

420
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,879
Speaker 3: getting Trump back in the White House, but maybe a

421
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,159
Speaker 3: little complacent with it, And maybe they're not interested in

422
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 3: turning out in a midterm. Maybe they don't have a

423
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,600
Speaker 3: long history themselves of turning out in a midterm. How

424
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,879
Speaker 3: much is your campaign targeting that crowd, this crowd that

425
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:22,359
Speaker 3: you know, obviously pro Trump, obviously conservative, obviously unhappy with

426
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,399
Speaker 3: the direction of the Democratic Party, but maybe a little

427
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 3: complacent when it comes to non presidential elections.

428
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 10: Right, And we need to instill a sense of urgency

429
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 10: in our party. These midterms are critical, not just for

430
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:36,640
Speaker 10: control of the House and whether or not the president

431
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:40,639
Speaker 10: gets impeached, but keeping our conservative agenda alive and fighting

432
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,359
Speaker 10: off the radical left. And you know, Speaker Johnson was

433
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,320
Speaker 10: in town here for our race a couple of weeks ago,

434
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:48,639
Speaker 10: and he gave a great viewpoint. He says, this is

435
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:52,239
Speaker 10: a bridge election, right. If we win these midterms, we

436
00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:56,200
Speaker 10: get to twenty twenty eight, where we have fantastic potential

437
00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:59,640
Speaker 10: presidential nominees, and then after twenty twenty eight, we get

438
00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,360
Speaker 10: to a new census, and with that new census, it's

439
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 10: going to show that voters are moving to red states

440
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:09,119
Speaker 10: and we'll add red congressional seats after that time, and

441
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,400
Speaker 10: really we could be looking after we win these midterms.

442
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:14,719
Speaker 10: We could be looking at ten plus years of a

443
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,920
Speaker 10: Republican power base to really push our conservative agenda. But

444
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,920
Speaker 10: it starts at these midterms. We need people to get

445
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,159
Speaker 10: out and understand the importance of these midterms.

446
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:28,359
Speaker 3: Eric Conroy, from Ohio Republican candidate and the first congressional

447
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:30,400
Speaker 3: district is our guest here on the Scott Jennings Show.

448
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:33,439
Speaker 3: Let's talk about a couple of issues. Eric, Obviously, the

449
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 3: economy is the number one issue. I've been in and

450
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,400
Speaker 3: around politics for twenty six years. The economy is always

451
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,000
Speaker 3: the number one issue. Talk to us about what you're

452
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,119
Speaker 3: hearing from your people there in Ohio, and what is

453
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:47,120
Speaker 3: your message on the economy, what's your message on taxes,

454
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 3: what's your message on jobs. I'm kind of interested in

455
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:51,040
Speaker 3: the local chatter there in Cincinnati.

456
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:54,920
Speaker 10: Yeah, economy and affordability is something I hear every day

457
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 10: on the campaign trail, and in my opinion, affordability will

458
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:01,399
Speaker 10: be the defining issue of this decade and probably the

459
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:04,560
Speaker 10: next as well. When I speak about the economy, I

460
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:07,880
Speaker 10: talk about both long term planning but also short term relief.

461
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 10: And here locally, long term planning looks like workforce development.

462
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,160
Speaker 10: It looks like keeping the companies that we have here

463
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 10: and also keeping our talent here and not having a

464
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:19,560
Speaker 10: brain drain to other cities around the country. And I'm

465
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,320
Speaker 10: also doing a big push to promote trade schools in

466
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,800
Speaker 10: the district. We have a change in economy and we

467
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,120
Speaker 10: need plans for our youth, and I think trade schools

468
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:31,239
Speaker 10: or a great alternative to traditional college. And secondly, when

469
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,000
Speaker 10: we talk about short term relief, I think the Big

470
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 10: Beautiful Bill was a great start in that direction. No

471
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:39,359
Speaker 10: taxes on tips, no taxes on overtime, puts money back

472
00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:42,119
Speaker 10: into the pockets and working class families. There's even some

473
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,680
Speaker 10: great other provisions in there, like allowing pelgrants to be

474
00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:47,399
Speaker 10: used for trade schools. So I think we need to

475
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 10: talk about both short term relief and long term planning

476
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,680
Speaker 10: when we're talking about the economy. And my opponent Greg

477
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:56,440
Speaker 10: Landsman voted for the largest tax increase in American history.

478
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,160
Speaker 10: This is not someone who is thinking on either short

479
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 10: term relief or long term vision for what this community needs.

480
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,480
Speaker 3: I've been following some of the news coverage in Cincinnati

481
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 3: for the last year, really since I've been doing this

482
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:10,800
Speaker 3: radio show just over a year now. One of the

483
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 3: biggest stories really last summer. You might remember it, this

484
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:19,920
Speaker 3: terrible situation. This mob beat up this couple in downtown Cincinnati,

485
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 3: and that was one of what I think are several

486
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:26,159
Speaker 3: sort of horrific crime stories in Cincinnati. I think one

487
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 3: of the brightest lines in this midterm is going to

488
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:31,680
Speaker 3: be which party stands for law and order and which

489
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:35,199
Speaker 3: party stands for this lawlessness in American cities. Are you

490
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:38,679
Speaker 3: hearing a lot about that from the voters in this district.

491
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 3: What's your message on crime and safe neighborhoods?

492
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 10: It is, we have a crime issue in this city,

493
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:46,720
Speaker 10: in the region, and we need to solve it. And look,

494
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,280
Speaker 10: I'm a proud downtown resident myself, and I see the

495
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:52,680
Speaker 10: issues here every day. That brawl actually happened right around

496
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,920
Speaker 10: the corner from my apartment complex, so I'm intimately familiar

497
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 10: with that situation and a couple other situations that have

498
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:02,840
Speaker 10: been downtown recently. And my opponent wants to defund the

499
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:06,200
Speaker 10: police and defund DHS and these are not common sense solutions,

500
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 10: and we need to get back to enforcing the laws

501
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,159
Speaker 10: on the books, but also supporting all law enforcement with

502
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:13,480
Speaker 10: the training and the resources they need to get the

503
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:16,119
Speaker 10: job done. And to me, these are these common sense,

504
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 10: practical solutions, just like filling potholes, that we need to

505
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,879
Speaker 10: have an effective society. And crime is of course a

506
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,119
Speaker 10: physical safety issue, but it's also an economic development issue

507
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,439
Speaker 10: as well. If we can't have people feel safe when

508
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:32,800
Speaker 10: they want to walk from the Reds Ballpark to Finley Market,

509
00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 10: we felt as a city and we're going to fail

510
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,320
Speaker 10: as a city, and we need to fix the crime issue.

511
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:40,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, it seems to me that a lot of the

512
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,920
Speaker 3: local Democrats in Cincinnati who are in positions of authority

513
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 3: when it comes to law and order and taking care

514
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:49,239
Speaker 3: of crime have absolutely failed. I mean it strikes me

515
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,679
Speaker 3: that some of this election, your race, everything on the

516
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:53,919
Speaker 3: ballot is going to be something of a referendum on

517
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,159
Speaker 3: which of these two parties can keep us safe and Cincinnati.

518
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 3: I think local Democrats have failed. I don't think your

519
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 3: opponent Lands has done anything at all to stand apart

520
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,840
Speaker 3: as you mentioned, he's been part of the blockade in Washington, DC,

521
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:09,720
Speaker 3: keeping the Department of Homeland Security shutdown. So I think

522
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:11,920
Speaker 3: that issue for you, particularly in that area in which

523
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 3: you live, is going to be salient. Eric Conroy, you're

524
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,479
Speaker 3: a Republican, You're a congressional candidate in Ohio's first district.

525
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 3: I got about thirty seconds left. Tell us where to

526
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 3: find you on the internet. I'll give you the last word.

527
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 10: Sure, well, if you want to hear more about my campaign,

528
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 10: go to Ericconroy dot com and you can hear about

529
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:31,920
Speaker 10: my fourteen years in both the CIA and the Air

530
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 10: Force where I served overseas and war zones Asia and Europe,

531
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 10: and you can also hear about my positions. And really

532
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 10: we are back to bringing common sense to this district

533
00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:44,959
Speaker 10: and pushing those common sense Republican policies, and that means affordability,

534
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 10: prime school choice, and putting power back into the hands

535
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:52,280
Speaker 10: of local government and not a large government bureaucracy. So

536
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 10: it's really a high tide for everyone to really get

537
00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:57,920
Speaker 10: on board with these midterms. These midterms are critical. The

538
00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 10: houses on the line, the President's agenda on the line,

539
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:02,480
Speaker 10: in the future of the Republican Party is on the line,

540
00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:06,040
Speaker 10: and that battleground runs right through Ohio. District one.

541
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,480
Speaker 3: Well, said Eric Conroy from Ohio. Thanks for joining us.

542
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:11,280
Speaker 3: We are going to take a break. When we come back,

543
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:13,840
Speaker 3: we're actually going to talk about another congressional campaign, one

544
00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 3: going on out in California. You want to hear about.

545
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:17,960
Speaker 3: Stay with us here on the Scott Jenning Show.

546
00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 1: Straight talk without the bluster. When you positively need the truth,

547
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 1: this is where you come. The Scotch Jenning Show.

548
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 3: Friday, July the twenty fourth. Thanks for listening here. Heavy

549
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:33,000
Speaker 3: politics week here on the Scott Jenning Show, really drilling

550
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:36,760
Speaker 3: down on some of these states and districts where the

551
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 3: majority will be decided in November. And as you know,

552
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 3: every day this week I have been profiling a congressional

553
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:48,640
Speaker 3: district where I think Democrats have nominated someone who's so

554
00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 3: far outside the mainstream that even though they may have

555
00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:56,400
Speaker 3: some sort of generic environmental advantage, they may have played

556
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 3: themselves out of the race. Let's talk about the las

557
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 3: in this series today, it's California's twenty second congressional district

558
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:07,200
Speaker 3: out on the Pacific Coast. For the past six years,

559
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:11,040
Speaker 3: this district has been represented historically blue, but it's been

560
00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:15,720
Speaker 3: represented by a Republican named David Valdeo. He's a stalwart conservative,

561
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 3: stalwart with a record of bringing a lot of federal

562
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 3: dollars back to his district. It's an agriculture based district,

563
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 3: so they value someone who knows how to work the

564
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:27,480
Speaker 3: government system. But redistricting changes in California made this more

565
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,480
Speaker 3: blue and now Democrats would like to get this district back.

566
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 3: But as I said, instead of giving independents or moderates

567
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:41,320
Speaker 3: or normal people some normal Democrat to vote for, what

568
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:45,040
Speaker 3: do they do here? They've nominated a man named Randy

569
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 3: vijaygis an activist and acolyte of Bernie Sanders. And by

570
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:52,320
Speaker 3: the way, if you want a sort of an idea

571
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:56,240
Speaker 3: of who this guy is, he uses the same political consultants,

572
00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,920
Speaker 3: this group called the Fight Agency, that were the brainchild's

573
00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 3: who were the brain children of Graham Platner. So he's

574
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:10,000
Speaker 3: got the Platner team, the Jagas does running his campaign,

575
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 3: and they have a lot of things in common with

576
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 3: Graham Platner and with Bernie Sanders. Number one, they've got

577
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:18,720
Speaker 3: the backing of this clown Roe Conna. Let's hear that.

578
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 3: And cut number seven.

579
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:23,760
Speaker 11: I was wonder Randy Vegas's first endorsers, and I'm proud

580
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 11: to be here with him. We need him in Congress.

581
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 11: He's the only candidate who's for Medicare for all. Single

582
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:31,440
Speaker 11: help there in the district.

583
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:36,959
Speaker 3: So you can see the socialism has already started with

584
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:40,960
Speaker 3: this the Jagas campaign. Here's more on that Medicare for

585
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 3: all and cut six.

586
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 5: On day one.

587
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,520
Speaker 12: I will be a proud co sponsor of Medicare for

588
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:48,280
Speaker 12: all because I believe that healthcare is a human right.

589
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 12: Nobody should have to choose between going to a doctor

590
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,360
Speaker 12: and pay the rent. Nobody should have to choose between

591
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:55,760
Speaker 12: rationing and their insulin and pay their mortgage. And I'm

592
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:58,400
Speaker 12: here to say that nobody should have to fight cancer

593
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 12: and their congressman. At the same time, we deserve healthcare

594
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:05,280
Speaker 12: as a human right. And whether it's healthcare, whether it's housing,

595
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,760
Speaker 12: whether it's education. A lot of this comes back to

596
00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:10,520
Speaker 12: the same corruption that is money in politics.

597
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 3: So a lot of the sort of liberal buzzwords, but

598
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:17,800
Speaker 3: if you drill down on it, and I think it

599
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 3: was interesting that in the same breath as talking about

600
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:22,360
Speaker 3: Medicare for all, he talked about a bunch of other

601
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 3: sectors of the economy. Why do they do that because

602
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 3: they intend for the government to take over all of

603
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:31,200
Speaker 3: those sectors of the economy. It's just that healthcare under

604
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 3: the guise of Medicare for All is the one they're

605
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 3: starting with. How do you pay for this, you might ask, well,

606
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 3: number one, you begin to raise taxes. They'll say, on

607
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 3: the rich, but it'll be on every single working class American.

608
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 3: In fact, in fact, the AEGIS has already pledged to reverse,

609
00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 3: to vote against, to repeal the working families tax cuts

610
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,360
Speaker 3: that were passed last summer. Hear this and cut forth.

611
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 12: It's not good enough to say that we're going to

612
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,680
Speaker 12: reverse these tax cuts in this big bill, which we will,

613
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 12: but we actually need a fight for healthcare as a

614
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:02,480
Speaker 12: human right.

615
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 3: So I mean, look these tax cuts. A every working

616
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,239
Speaker 3: class American that pays taxes got a tax cut from

617
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 3: Donald Trump in the first term. And b those tax

618
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,280
Speaker 3: cuts were made permanent last summer. And see, a whole

619
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:21,280
Speaker 3: bunch of tax cuts for working class Americans were added in.

620
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:23,840
Speaker 3: No tax on tips, no tax on overtime, no tax

621
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 3: on Social Security. Many of you out there have benefited

622
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 3: from this. This man Viegas wants to take it away

623
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 3: from you. And he's not the only one. All of

624
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,400
Speaker 3: these socialist candidates that are running in the Democratic Party

625
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:40,840
Speaker 3: across the country intend to raise your taxes. Now, immigration

626
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 3: is a big issue in this campaign. Viegas is bragging,

627
00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:50,040
Speaker 3: bragging about his team reporting ICE agents who are simply

628
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,040
Speaker 3: out trying to enforce the law. Cut five.

629
00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:55,320
Speaker 12: We have an amazing rapid response network in current County

630
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 12: that has been really good about reporting any signings of

631
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:01,600
Speaker 12: ICE and going in verify it's not cost panic.

632
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:06,520
Speaker 3: So here's the deal. They're going to raise your taxes,

633
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 3: they're going to have a complete government takeover of health care.

634
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:15,600
Speaker 3: And what you get in this Vegas character is someone

635
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:18,640
Speaker 3: who thinks he should be spending his time on obstructing

636
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:24,480
Speaker 3: federal law enforcement from simply enforcing existing federal immigration law.

637
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 3: You see all these lunatics out on the street interfering

638
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:31,960
Speaker 3: with federal law enforcement trying to do their job. That's

639
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:36,359
Speaker 3: this guy. He brags about it. He's a communist, he's

640
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,759
Speaker 3: a socialist, he's a left wing lunatic, and he's running

641
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:42,839
Speaker 3: in a moderate ish district. Valadeo has a great chance

642
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:45,799
Speaker 3: to hold it because Democrats here have gone way too

643
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 3: far to the left. We'll take a break and do

644
00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 3: more after this on the Scott Shetting Show Stay with Us.

645
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:51,920
Speaker 3: I had a quick check of the headlines here. On Friday,

646
00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 3: July the twenty fourth World of Sports, Lebron James has

647
00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:00,479
Speaker 3: made his decision. He is signing a two new year,

648
00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:04,400
Speaker 3: eight million dollar deal to move from the LA Lakers

649
00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 3: to the Philadelphia seventy six Ers. This will likely be

650
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 3: the last major move of Lebron's career. We'll see how

651
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 3: this shakes up the NBA politics news. Dan Osborne, the

652
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 3: guy running for Senate in Nebraska as an independent but

653
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 3: really is an extension of the Democrats, is in hot

654
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:27,640
Speaker 3: water today. One of his close campaign allies has been

655
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:30,359
Speaker 3: caught on a hot mic by our friends over at

656
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:36,080
Speaker 3: townhall dot com bragging bragging about doxing an ice agent.

657
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:39,200
Speaker 3: People often wonder why are these guys wearing masks. It's

658
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:43,400
Speaker 3: because people like this fellow associated with Dan Osborne are

659
00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:46,279
Speaker 3: doxing them and trying to have violence committed against them.

660
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:49,120
Speaker 3: It's six stuff, really, and I think you should check

661
00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 3: it out over at townhall dot com. And as we

662
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 3: have been discussing on the show today, problems for the

663
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 3: Democrat Party continue in the realm of communism. They have

664
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:02,800
Speaker 3: a communism problem. I was perusing some of the local

665
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 3: political headlines this morning in preparation for the show, and

666
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,600
Speaker 3: I came across one and it laid it out flat,

667
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:13,839
Speaker 3: the Democrats have a communism problem. I clicked through and

668
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:17,239
Speaker 3: found the author. Her name is Sasha Stone. She has

669
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:20,800
Speaker 3: a sub stack and she joins us from California. Sasha,

670
00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:24,560
Speaker 3: you and I don't know each other, but you had

671
00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,760
Speaker 3: a headline that is right on point for the topic

672
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:31,880
Speaker 3: of our show today, which is Democrats have been overtaken

673
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:36,000
Speaker 3: by communism and they seem not to know what to

674
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:38,880
Speaker 3: do about it. I got hooked on this post, and

675
00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:41,840
Speaker 3: then I started reading your other posts and I thought,

676
00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:45,680
Speaker 3: this is a good writer. This is a fascinating political commentator,

677
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:46,960
Speaker 3: and we need to have her on the show. We're

678
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 3: grateful for your time today. Welcome in.

679
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:53,040
Speaker 13: Oh well, so great to be here. Thank you. I'm

680
00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:54,560
Speaker 13: a big fan, as you know.

681
00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 3: Well, thank you very much, and I'm sort of fascinated

682
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:02,960
Speaker 3: by story. First of all, let's start there. You were

683
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:07,480
Speaker 3: in Hollywood. You were one of the most prominent writers

684
00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:13,760
Speaker 3: about the oscars, and people were paying to advertise around

685
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:17,080
Speaker 3: that whole ecosystem on your website as you wrote about

686
00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:21,320
Speaker 3: this whole movie industry. But back in twenty twenty four,

687
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:26,440
Speaker 3: this publication called The Hollywood Reporter wrote a long story

688
00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 3: about you. They effectively outed you, and the headline was

689
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:36,000
Speaker 3: how an oscar blogger became a mega darling. They outed

690
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:39,200
Speaker 3: you as a conservative or you know, as someone who

691
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:43,880
Speaker 3: had Trump leaning tendencies in Hollywood. And what happened next?

692
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,880
Speaker 3: Tell our audience this incredible story.

693
00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:50,480
Speaker 13: Well, the day that this story broke, a studio that

694
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:53,600
Speaker 13: was advertising on my side asked to pull their ads

695
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:56,919
Speaker 13: that day. And I was headed to the Teller Ride

696
00:37:56,960 --> 00:38:00,960
Speaker 13: Film Festival very shortly after that that same months, and

697
00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:03,839
Speaker 13: all of the invites to the screenings dried up. They

698
00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:07,200
Speaker 13: disinvited me to the patrons brunch, which is, you know,

699
00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,840
Speaker 13: you kind of go and mingle with the stars before

700
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 13: the festival. It's an honor to be invited to that

701
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:16,319
Speaker 13: if you're like a journalist or or something. They disinvited

702
00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:20,319
Speaker 13: me to that. I noticed that I was not None

703
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 13: of the publicists were speaking to me. None of the

704
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,360
Speaker 13: people that I knew were speaking to me. And it

705
00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 13: was such a chilling thing to live through. I was

706
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:32,960
Speaker 13: sort of surviving it without realizing what exactly was happening

707
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,480
Speaker 13: to me, And over the next few weeks and months,

708
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:39,400
Speaker 13: I would really you know, invitations dried up, and my

709
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:42,840
Speaker 13: Oscar ticket, which I attended the Oscars every year, that

710
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:48,040
Speaker 13: went away. I wrote a freelance report for the Women's

711
00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:51,680
Speaker 13: Media Center, Jane Fonda's Women's Media Center. I wrote their

712
00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:54,239
Speaker 13: annual report for the Oscars every year. They pulled that.

713
00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:59,080
Speaker 13: All of my writers from my site left and many

714
00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:03,840
Speaker 13: of my friends befriended me, and I am now persona

715
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:05,120
Speaker 13: and im grata in Hollywood.

716
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:09,680
Speaker 3: This is such a fascinating story. I live in Middle America,

717
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 3: and you know we out here. I live in Kentucky,

718
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:15,440
Speaker 3: but I think a lot of people who are outside

719
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:17,920
Speaker 3: of Hollywood. You know, you often hear what's hard for

720
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:21,080
Speaker 3: conservatives to exist in Hollywood and the you know, the

721
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 3: ostracization of conservatives is real. But you know these are

722
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:30,680
Speaker 3: things you hear. But your story is so swift and

723
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:34,480
Speaker 3: specific and horrific. I mean, these people, because of your

724
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:39,560
Speaker 3: political views, essentially destroyed your life and a business that

725
00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 3: you had taken years to build, and they did it

726
00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,680
Speaker 3: with no remorse whatsoever. So in the aftermath of all this,

727
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:46,880
Speaker 3: what did you do.

728
00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:49,279
Speaker 6: Well.

729
00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:52,320
Speaker 13: I had already started writing on Substack in twenty twenty,

730
00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:54,960
Speaker 13: because that was when things started to really change for me.

731
00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 13: I'm writing about a story about exactly how that happened

732
00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 13: right now. But it was, you know, it was a

733
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:02,920
Speaker 13: Tom Cotton essay in the New York Times. It was

734
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:07,120
Speaker 13: the Protest, it was COVID lockdown, switching to systemic racism,

735
00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:10,320
Speaker 13: then back to COVID everything. And I was a major

736
00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:12,719
Speaker 13: Joe Biden supporter at this time. I was like I

737
00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:15,720
Speaker 13: was invited to a fundraiser in twenty nineteen for Joe Biden.

738
00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:20,799
Speaker 13: I was his number one supporter online, you know. But

739
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:23,080
Speaker 13: all of a sudden things turned around for me and

740
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:25,920
Speaker 13: I realized I was in a bubble, Like I didn't

741
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:29,279
Speaker 13: know that there was a whole other world outside of it.

742
00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:31,200
Speaker 13: I didn't know that there were other points of view.

743
00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:33,640
Speaker 13: I know that sounds crazy, but if you're on the left,

744
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:37,200
Speaker 13: you do exist in kind of an enclosed information loop.

745
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:41,719
Speaker 13: You're not really privy to, you know, the much more

746
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:45,000
Speaker 13: freethinking ideas on the right. And for me, it was

747
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:47,920
Speaker 13: like it was a forbidden world the right. But because

748
00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:51,560
Speaker 13: of the Protest, I began creeping my way over to

749
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:56,719
Speaker 13: listen to more conservative bloggers and podcasters who would write

750
00:40:56,719 --> 00:40:59,520
Speaker 13: about what was really happening and weren't afraid to write

751
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:02,799
Speaker 13: about it. So once I humanized the right and I

752
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:06,040
Speaker 13: started watching Trump rallies and getting to know him, and

753
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:09,160
Speaker 13: I realized how I've been lied to. I just I

754
00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:12,279
Speaker 13: didn't even I was so I had no idea that

755
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:14,840
Speaker 13: Trump was the way he actually is. I had this

756
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,200
Speaker 13: image in my mind of him, like a lot of

757
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:20,480
Speaker 13: people say, it's the same story, but anyway. So I

758
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:24,759
Speaker 13: had been writing quietly, slowly, and then Real Clear Politics

759
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:28,480
Speaker 13: started linking to my stories, and so my profile was

760
00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:31,400
Speaker 13: starting to rise. I was starting to make money. People

761
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:33,480
Speaker 13: were donating even though my side is free, I don't

762
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 13: put it behind the paywall, and so I was starting

763
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 13: to make money. I was starting to become more prominent.

764
00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:40,560
Speaker 13: And I knew sooner or later this was going to

765
00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:43,520
Speaker 13: get out and that if I didn't get ahead of it,

766
00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:45,640
Speaker 13: they were going to get me, you know, And they

767
00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:48,040
Speaker 13: got me anyway, even though I try to get ahead

768
00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:48,319
Speaker 13: of it.

769
00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:53,400
Speaker 3: So well, that's where's yeah, yeah, that's where I found you.

770
00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:55,719
Speaker 3: By the way, on Real Clear Politics, and this most

771
00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:59,440
Speaker 3: recent post that you put up, I think yesterday headlined

772
00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:02,279
Speaker 3: the Demokrats have a communist problem. You're talking about a

773
00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:06,000
Speaker 3: lot of issues from Mamdani to Hassan Piker to other

774
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:08,200
Speaker 3: things going on in the Democratic Party that we talk

775
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:11,080
Speaker 3: a lot about here on the radio show. We got

776
00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:13,400
Speaker 3: a couple of minutes left here. Tell us about this piece,

777
00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:16,680
Speaker 3: and then tell us also tell the audience where they

778
00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:19,719
Speaker 3: can find your writing, because I want people to check

779
00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:23,200
Speaker 3: out your writing. It's really well done. But talk about

780
00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,440
Speaker 3: this headline the Democrats have a communist problem. What do

781
00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:26,680
Speaker 3: you see from your vantage point?

782
00:42:26,800 --> 00:42:30,919
Speaker 13: Yeah, well, thank you, Scott, that's very nice of you. Well,

783
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:33,839
Speaker 13: I have seen a fusion between sort of the woke

784
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:37,680
Speaker 13: ideology and the communist ideology, and that's what's going to

785
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 13: hurt the Democrats because they're so the women are so

786
00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:43,400
Speaker 13: woke that they dare not criticize any people of color,

787
00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:45,759
Speaker 13: and so it's been a really easy way to be

788
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:50,240
Speaker 13: a trojan horse to usher in actual communism. Hassan Piker

789
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:53,240
Speaker 13: is saying incredibly dangerous things. It's almost like a test

790
00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:56,000
Speaker 13: to see who will stand up to him, who will

791
00:42:56,320 --> 00:43:00,319
Speaker 13: protest against him, wearing a maw costume, you know, and

792
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:03,560
Speaker 13: praising chairman Now as though they have no idea what

793
00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:06,440
Speaker 13: happened in China. I mean, he's either really dumb or

794
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:11,680
Speaker 13: really dangerous. And Zorha Mamdani is also another trojan horse.

795
00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:14,239
Speaker 13: They were wrong to elect him in New York. I

796
00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:16,319
Speaker 13: don't think they realize how bad it's going to be

797
00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:18,839
Speaker 13: because he doesn't just want to be the mayor of

798
00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:22,120
Speaker 13: New York. He wants to be the leader leading this

799
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:26,239
Speaker 13: new movement to completely transform the country, not just the

800
00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:29,600
Speaker 13: Democratic Party. And then the Democrats have a problem is

801
00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:31,480
Speaker 13: that they're attacking the Democrats too.

802
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:34,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they don't know what to do about it.

803
00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:36,719
Speaker 3: To be honest, I mean, I think the Democratic Party

804
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:41,920
Speaker 3: leadership has already effectively been overwhelmed. They may not realize

805
00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:43,640
Speaker 3: it yet, and they some of them may say we're

806
00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:45,480
Speaker 3: going to put off a fight, but they I think

807
00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:47,759
Speaker 3: they've been overwhelmed. And I think this twenty twenty eight

808
00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:51,600
Speaker 3: Democratic primary for president is going to bring out some ugly,

809
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:53,920
Speaker 3: ugly stuff, and we're going to cover it here, and

810
00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:56,239
Speaker 3: we're going to hopefully have you along for the ride.

811
00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:58,359
Speaker 3: I'd love to have you back for some of your commentary.

812
00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:02,799
Speaker 3: Her name is Sasha Stone. She is a freethinker and

813
00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:06,600
Speaker 3: a smart political commentator out in California. You can find

814
00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:10,799
Speaker 3: her at sashastone dot com. If you like politics and

815
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 3: you like the movies, you're going to like her content.

816
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 3: Sasha very grateful for your time today, and we'll have

817
00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:16,359
Speaker 3: you back very soon.

818
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:20,600
Speaker 13: Oh thanks so much. It's my pleasure, all right.

819
00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:23,200
Speaker 3: Sasha Stone out in California, new contributor to the Scott

820
00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:26,160
Speaker 3: Chenning Show. By the way, have you ever thought about

821
00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:30,239
Speaker 3: how important reliable energy is to our lives? You know,

822
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:32,759
Speaker 3: it does more than just light up our homes. It

823
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:36,680
Speaker 3: creates opportunities for entire communities. And that is why Duke

824
00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:40,840
Speaker 3: Energy is more than just an energy provider. Through smart

825
00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:44,799
Speaker 3: investments and technology and grid infrastructure, they are adding enough

826
00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:48,360
Speaker 3: capacity to power nearly eleven million new homes over the

827
00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:51,520
Speaker 3: next five years. And they're doing it while keeping costs

828
00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:55,440
Speaker 3: as low as possible. They've got five billion dollars in

829
00:44:55,480 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 3: customer savings. They've recently announced they're boosting the efficiency of

830
00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:02,480
Speaker 3: natural gas plants. A lot of positive things going on

831
00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:05,280
Speaker 3: over with our friends at Duke Energy. Just like American

832
00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:09,400
Speaker 3: ingenuity and innovation, Duke Energy's commitment to putting customers first

833
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:11,840
Speaker 3: never stops if you want to learn more about Duke Energy,

Speaker 3: dot com slash Powering America. The Relief Factor Paint of

836
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:22,920
Speaker 3: the Week is next. Stay with us here on the

837
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:23,799
Speaker 3: Scott Jenning Show.

838
00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:26,480
Speaker 14: If the leftists haven't had enough yet, there's more.

839
00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:28,359
Speaker 1: This is the Scott Jenning Show.

840
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:33,040
Speaker 3: I feel like we've been talking about sports more than

841
00:45:33,160 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 3: usual lately here on the Scott Jenning Show. You know,

842
00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:38,040
Speaker 3: it's kind of a politics show. It's kind of a

843
00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:44,239
Speaker 3: public affairs show. But increasingly you can't separate sports and politics,

844
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:49,520
Speaker 3: particularly because the sports industry and the sports journalism industry

845
00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:54,200
Speaker 3: has been taken over by and is a wash with

846
00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:59,279
Speaker 3: all this woke nonsense. And that's why we're going to

847
00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:01,399
Speaker 3: focus on that. Our relief Factor Pain of the Week.

848
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:02,520
Speaker 3: Hollywood Sean hit.

849
00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:08,800
Speaker 1: It had no the Relief Factor Pain of the Week.

850
00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:14,439
Speaker 3: It is time for the Relief Factor Pain of the Week.

851
00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:19,840
Speaker 3: This week's winner is USA Today sports columnist Nancy Armor,

852
00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:23,400
Speaker 3: now by the way well known person. She wrote a

853
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:28,680
Speaker 3: column and the topic of the column was ostensibly about

854
00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:33,160
Speaker 3: Caitlyn Clark flopping and complaining to officials. What is flopping

855
00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:35,960
Speaker 3: in sports? When you try to convince the officials you've

856
00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:39,640
Speaker 3: been fouled when you really haven't been so Nancy Armour,

857
00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:43,040
Speaker 3: by the way, every journalist who covers the WNBA feels

858
00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:46,520
Speaker 3: like it is their responsibility to crap up on or

859
00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:49,400
Speaker 3: minimize Caitlin Clark. Caitlyn Clark is the best player in

860
00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:52,120
Speaker 3: the WNBA, it's not even close. But you have an

861
00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:56,560
Speaker 3: entire league, executives and journalists who work together to minimize

862
00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 3: what she does on the court. Fine, it's a sports argument.

863
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:03,440
Speaker 3: If you want to argue that she sometimes exaggerates contact

864
00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:07,080
Speaker 3: or rides the refs, fine, Fine. You could also argue

865
00:47:07,080 --> 00:47:08,919
Speaker 3: that Michael Jordan got a lot of calls. You could

866
00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:11,520
Speaker 3: argue that Lebron James spends half the time on the

867
00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:14,680
Speaker 3: court flopping. You could argue that Tom Brady whined about

868
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:18,840
Speaker 3: not getting enough flags. These are sports arguments. Fine, it's not.

869
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:22,000
Speaker 3: I don't think it's true, by the way, but whatever,

870
00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:27,360
Speaker 3: Nancy armor could not leave it there. She writes this

871
00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:34,160
Speaker 3: column claiming that Caitlin Clark's conduct was becoming quote dangerous.

872
00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:38,319
Speaker 3: Not because Clark might get hurt, mind you, which, by

873
00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:40,319
Speaker 3: the way, Caitlyn Clark gets hurt all the time they

874
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:43,200
Speaker 3: beat the crap out of her all the time. She's

875
00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:46,040
Speaker 3: gotten so many cheap shots out there. I mean, it

876
00:47:46,160 --> 00:47:48,840
Speaker 3: really is ridiculous what they do to Caitlin Clark.

877
00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:49,120
Speaker 15: But no.

878
00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:56,080
Speaker 3: Nancy Armor argued that Clark's reactions to the referees could

879
00:47:56,280 --> 00:48:01,840
Speaker 3: in danger the w NBA's black and lesbian players because

880
00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:07,880
Speaker 3: there is supposedly a quote white nationalist element within Caitlyn

881
00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:13,319
Speaker 3: Clark's enormous fan base. So in order to continue to

882
00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:16,799
Speaker 3: defame and hurt Caitlyn Clark, they now claim all of

883
00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:20,640
Speaker 3: her fans are white nationalists through this column written by

884
00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:24,319
Speaker 3: Nancy Armour. This is actually this is supposed to be

885
00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:28,440
Speaker 3: a serious person writing for a serious national newspaper. Obviously

886
00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:33,480
Speaker 3: that's not true. So Caitlyn Clark complains about a foul

887
00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:39,080
Speaker 3: and Nancy Armor, well what does she see white nationalism?

888
00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:43,719
Speaker 3: How did all these sports journalists, by the way, become lunatics?

889
00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:47,160
Speaker 3: I mean, is everybody that works in sports outside of

890
00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:51,040
Speaker 3: say Dave Portnoy or whatever. Are they all just insane

891
00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:55,840
Speaker 3: liberal lunatics? I guess they are all right. More on

892
00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:58,680
Speaker 3: the relief factor paint of the week, Nancy Armor, millions

893
00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:03,480
Speaker 3: of families have discovered women's basketball because they are watching

894
00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:07,920
Speaker 3: a generationally talented player. Her name's Caitlin Clark, but no, no,

895
00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:13,040
Speaker 3: Nancy Armour. She sees a dangerous racial movement. It's a

896
00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:17,520
Speaker 3: perfect example of what progressive politics has done to sports journalism.

897
00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:21,120
Speaker 3: These people are not capable of just watching a basketball game.

898
00:49:21,239 --> 00:49:26,960
Speaker 3: Everything is an ideological struggle involving race, sexuality, privilege, oppression,

899
00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:31,240
Speaker 3: and as Armor demonstrated the darkest chapters of American history,

900
00:49:31,239 --> 00:49:36,000
Speaker 3: and Armor wrote what I think is the single dumbest

901
00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:40,120
Speaker 3: paragraph in the history of sports journalism, which, mind you,

902
00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:43,480
Speaker 3: was written and approved by layers and layers of editors.

903
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:46,520
Speaker 3: I shall read it to you, and I quote it

904
00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:49,880
Speaker 3: shouldn't need reminding. This country has an awful history of

905
00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:53,239
Speaker 3: black people being harmed, even killed, in the name of

906
00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:56,959
Speaker 3: defending white women. The irony of the WNBA's All Star

907
00:49:57,080 --> 00:50:00,239
Speaker 3: Game is that it's happening this weekend in Chicago, the

908
00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:03,640
Speaker 3: hometown of Emmitt Till, who became an icon of the

909
00:50:03,640 --> 00:50:06,640
Speaker 3: civil rights movement after his tragic murder. The local art

910
00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:09,719
Speaker 3: gallery is currently hosting an exhibit imagining his life if

911
00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:13,160
Speaker 3: he hadn't been lynched. While it's incumbent on the WNBA

912
00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:16,360
Speaker 3: to do more to protect its players. There also should

913
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:20,640
Speaker 3: be an expectation on Clark to recognize the broader implications

914
00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:26,320
Speaker 3: of her actions being weaponized. Nancy Armour, a supposedly serious person,

915
00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:31,600
Speaker 3: watches a basketball game and says, you know that, Caitlin Clark,

916
00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:35,640
Speaker 3: she really really is basically just like the people who

917
00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:42,200
Speaker 3: lynched Emmitt Till. This is abject lunacy and you should

918
00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:47,360
Speaker 3: never ever ever take Nancy Armour seriously as a sports

919
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:51,080
Speaker 3: journalist or anything else ever again. And that is why

920
00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:54,879
Speaker 3: she is our relief factor Pain of the week. We

921
00:50:55,040 --> 00:50:56,839
Speaker 3: take a break and we come back with my friend

922
00:50:56,920 --> 00:50:59,960
Speaker 3: Jonathan Feltz for Friday Punditry right after this.

923
00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:03,400
Speaker 1: That's their relief factor Pain of the Week.

924
00:51:04,440 --> 00:51:08,560
Speaker 10: Scott Jutting surial pain and the agenda for the lofties,

925
00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:12,160
Speaker 10: quelling leftist arguments with truth and common sense.

926
00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:13,080

946
00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:20,120
Speaker 3: North Carolina. Mister Felts, Welcome to the Scott Jenning Show.

947
00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:22,640
Speaker 5: Scott, it is great to be with you today.

948
00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:25,919
Speaker 3: Thank you for being there, and I just for those

949
00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:28,759
Speaker 3: who are watching on the stream, you know that I

950
00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:32,040
Speaker 3: am aspiring to Jonathan's facial hair. I'm not there yet.

951
00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:34,279
Speaker 3: It may take me a few years yet to get

952
00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:38,040
Speaker 3: to your beard and mustache level. Of expertise, but I'm

953
00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:41,480
Speaker 3: working on it. But to describe for the radio fans

954
00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:44,680
Speaker 3: out there, Jonathan always sports one of the most impressive

955
00:52:45,160 --> 00:52:48,759
Speaker 3: beard and mustache combos and Republican politics. I congratulate you

956
00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:50,200
Speaker 3: on your facial hair prowess, sir.

957
00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:54,040
Speaker 5: I appreciate that, sir, honor, I work very hard for

958
00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:54,520
Speaker 5: every day.

959
00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:58,480
Speaker 3: Now, you're down in North Carolina and you guys got

960
00:52:58,480 --> 00:53:00,360
Speaker 3: a big Senate race going on down there, and I

961
00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:02,960
Speaker 3: should tell the audience you were one of the strategic

962
00:53:03,040 --> 00:53:07,800
Speaker 3: masterminds behind the other Senator from North Carolina, Ted Budd,

963
00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:09,840
Speaker 3: who by the way, is doing a terrific job in

964
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:13,279
Speaker 3: the Senate Republican conference. But there's another race going on

965
00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:16,680
Speaker 3: in North Carolina this year. You have Tom Tillis stepping down,

966
00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:19,680
Speaker 3: and we have Michael Wattley as the Republican versus Roy

967
00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:23,000
Speaker 3: Cooper is the Democrat. How do you see this race

968
00:53:23,239 --> 00:53:25,720
Speaker 3: shaping up right now? I think the polling has Cooper

969
00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:27,840
Speaker 3: a little bit ahead. But what's the path to victory

970
00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:30,160
Speaker 3: for Republicans in North Carolina?

971
00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:30,480
Speaker 12: Sure?

972
00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:33,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, the most recent polling has Cooper only up by

973
00:53:33,480 --> 00:53:35,560
Speaker 5: four points. And one thing I've got to point out

974
00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:38,200
Speaker 5: there is this guy is the epitome of the career politician.

975
00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:41,320
Speaker 5: First run for office forty years ago in nineteen eighty six,

976
00:53:42,040 --> 00:53:44,560
Speaker 5: he was a four term attorney general, two term governor.

977
00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:47,080
Speaker 5: And what's really funny in this race right now, the

978
00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:49,880
Speaker 5: pathway to victory is there's really three candidates running. You

979
00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:52,319
Speaker 5: got Michael Wattley as the Republican nominee, but then you've

980
00:53:52,360 --> 00:53:55,920
Speaker 5: got candidate Roy Cooper, who's running aggressively against the record

981
00:53:55,960 --> 00:53:58,320
Speaker 5: of Governor Roy Cooper. He's out there right now and

982
00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:02,040
Speaker 5: to make things cost less tour and his legacy when

983
00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:04,480
Speaker 5: he was governor, who was driving prices up, whether it

984
00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:06,920
Speaker 5: be energy prices with the Green Energy New Deal he

985
00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:10,000
Speaker 5: forced on North Carolinians, whether it be housing prices, whether

986
00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:12,680
Speaker 5: it be healthcare prices, which after he left office, after

987
00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:15,400
Speaker 5: eight years of Cooper as governor, North Carolina was paying

988
00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:17,759
Speaker 5: more for health care than any of the state in

989
00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:20,280
Speaker 5: the country. Healthcare prices had risen by fifty seven percent,

990
00:54:20,280 --> 00:54:22,799
Speaker 5: I believe it was. But then the biggest legacy with

991
00:54:22,800 --> 00:54:26,080
Speaker 5: the way Cooper is crime and specifically his soft on

992
00:54:26,200 --> 00:54:29,400
Speaker 5: crime approach to all things that relates to the legal system.

993
00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:33,319
Speaker 5: He pushed a radical reform after the Black Lives Matter,

994
00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:36,560
Speaker 5: defund the police effort of twenty twenty, and sadly that

995
00:54:36,680 --> 00:54:39,600
Speaker 5: legacy is coming home to roost now with As you

996
00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:42,120
Speaker 5: might know, he released thirty five hundred prisoners as part

997
00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:45,640
Speaker 5: of a lawsuit settlement with the NAACP as well as

998
00:54:45,680 --> 00:54:49,719
Speaker 5: the ACLU. Of those they included many violent offenders, which

999
00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:53,359
Speaker 5: Cooper many times denied during his time as governor. And

1000
00:54:53,400 --> 00:54:55,480
Speaker 5: now we find out that twenty five North Carolinians have

1001
00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:57,960
Speaker 5: been murdered by people who were released as part of

1002
00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:01,080
Speaker 5: that lawsuit. Cooper wo he was forced to do it

1003
00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:04,920
Speaker 5: by the courts. But the reality is these radical conservative

1004
00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:10,120
Speaker 5: governors like JB. Pritzker in Illinois or Governor Polis in Colorado,

1005
00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:12,560
Speaker 5: of course, both of which are outspoken left wing Democrats,

1006
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:15,320
Speaker 5: they chose to fight these lawsuits and as a result,

1007
00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:17,480
Speaker 5: they did not have that criminals released.

1008
00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:24,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, the consequences of Roy Cooper's gubernatorial term on public

1009
00:55:24,239 --> 00:55:26,440
Speaker 3: safety in North Carolina. I mean, look, I think the

1010
00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:28,960
Speaker 3: economy is the biggest issue in the election. That's been

1011
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:30,399
Speaker 3: the same for every election you and I have ever

1012
00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:32,480
Speaker 3: worked in for the last you know, all of our

1013
00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:36,280
Speaker 3: entire career. But when you have somebody with such a record,

1014
00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:40,200
Speaker 3: as you pointed out, longtime record in public office. You

1015
00:55:40,280 --> 00:55:43,680
Speaker 3: do find things where decisions had a material impact on

1016
00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:46,600
Speaker 3: quality of life. And I think in this race, this

1017
00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:50,040
Speaker 3: Cooper record on criminal justice, I mean he went totally

1018
00:55:50,120 --> 00:55:53,960
Speaker 3: woke to the left, I mean radical after all the

1019
00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:57,200
Speaker 3: BLM stuff in twenty twenty and really has shown no

1020
00:55:57,320 --> 00:55:59,120
Speaker 3: remorse for any of it. We've covered a lot of

1021
00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:02,520
Speaker 3: these murders here on the Scott Jennings Show, but North

1022
00:56:02,520 --> 00:56:05,640
Speaker 3: Carolina has kind of become ground zero for what happens

1023
00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:09,279
Speaker 3: when you let violent people out of jail, Jonathan, you know,

1024
00:56:09,480 --> 00:56:11,960
Speaker 3: lo and behold, they continue to commit violent acts. And

1025
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:13,839
Speaker 3: that's all at the feet of Cooper.

1026
00:56:14,640 --> 00:56:17,480
Speaker 5: One hundred percent. And you know it's, you know, running

1027
00:56:17,480 --> 00:56:19,360
Speaker 5: for governor versus running for Senate. You know, governor in

1028
00:56:19,400 --> 00:56:21,719
Speaker 5: North Carolina, he doesn't have to take a hard core

1029
00:56:21,760 --> 00:56:23,400
Speaker 5: position on a lot of issues. But the one thing

1030
00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:25,720
Speaker 5: he did have to take a position on is appointing judges.

1031
00:56:26,200 --> 00:56:28,359
Speaker 5: And just this year alone, there has been a US

1032
00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:31,279
Speaker 5: marine who was murdered in Wilmington, North Carolina by a

1033
00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:33,800
Speaker 5: violent offender who has let out a pre trial release

1034
00:56:33,960 --> 00:56:36,960
Speaker 5: by a Cooper appointed judge. There's been a teacher who

1035
00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:39,440
Speaker 5: someone broke into her home here in Raleigh, North Carolina

1036
00:56:39,480 --> 00:56:43,120
Speaker 5: and murdered her. That offender was also released early pre trial,

1037
00:56:43,120 --> 00:56:45,960
Speaker 5: early release by a Cooper appointed judge. Every judge he

1038
00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:48,200
Speaker 5: appointed was a software on crime judge. And it's really

1039
00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:50,879
Speaker 5: having sad, devastating real world impacts right here in North

1040
00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:51,680
Speaker 5: Carolina families.

1041
00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:55,200
Speaker 3: All right, Jonathan Felts from North Carolina is are pundit

1042
00:56:55,200 --> 00:56:57,200
Speaker 3: of the week here on the Scott Jennings Show. Jonathan,

1043
00:56:57,280 --> 00:57:00,719
Speaker 3: let's shift to national politics. I really like the way

1044
00:57:01,040 --> 00:57:04,239
Speaker 3: President Trump is framing up the election as a fight

1045
00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:09,400
Speaker 3: between normal patriotic Americans and the communists who are trying

1046
00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:12,680
Speaker 3: to or who have already taken over the Democratic Party.

1047
00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:15,320
Speaker 3: In fact, let's hear the president. He said this yesterday

1048
00:57:15,360 --> 00:57:16,160
Speaker 3: Cut seventeen.

1049
00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:20,760
Speaker 6: They continue to be free as long as we're smart,

1050
00:57:21,520 --> 00:57:27,040
Speaker 6: and we can't be hoodwinked, we can't be taking advantage.

1051
00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:28,040
Speaker 1: Of by people that say you're going to.

1052
00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:30,280
Speaker 6: Have a free home, you're going to get free rent,

1053
00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:32,160
Speaker 6: everything's going to be free with they don't say is

1054
00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:34,080
Speaker 6: a year later everything is going to be end up

1055
00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:38,880
Speaker 6: in squalor, destruction and death and also death for our country.

1056
00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:43,120
Speaker 6: So we have to stop the threat of the communist

1057
00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:47,440
Speaker 6: rhetoric that you're hearing right now, because these people they don't.

1058
00:57:47,480 --> 00:57:49,600
Speaker 6: I'm very happy a pole came out and said they're

1059
00:57:49,640 --> 00:57:54,680
Speaker 6: highly educated but doing very poorly. In other words, the losers.

1060
00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:59,240
Speaker 3: What do you make Jonathan, I love the president never

1061
00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:01,920
Speaker 3: mints his words. What do you make of this complete

1062
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:05,640
Speaker 3: takeover of the Democratic Party by the likes of Mamdani

1063
00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:10,320
Speaker 3: or Hassan Piker. I mean, these people are complete lunatics.

1064
00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:13,200
Speaker 3: They are radicals, and they don't really try to hide it,

1065
00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:15,480
Speaker 3: and it feels to me like the Democratic leadership has

1066
00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:16,040
Speaker 3: been overtaken.

1067
00:58:16,080 --> 00:58:19,440
Speaker 5: What's your view, one hundred percent been overtaken. And it's

1068
00:58:19,440 --> 00:58:21,480
Speaker 5: one of those things where it's really easy sometimes to

1069
00:58:21,560 --> 00:58:24,160
Speaker 5: laugh this off and just laugh at how ridiculous some

1070
00:58:24,160 --> 00:58:26,520
Speaker 5: of the positions are that these radical leftists are taking

1071
00:58:26,520 --> 00:58:30,120
Speaker 5: and these literal communists are taking after they win elections.

1072
00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:32,640
Speaker 5: But the reality is it's really sad. I mean, whether

1073
00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:34,640
Speaker 5: you like the two party system or not, America is

1074
00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:36,960
Speaker 5: a system of two parties, and the fact that one

1075
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:39,600
Speaker 5: of our parties has been completely co opted by people

1076
00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:42,920
Speaker 5: who are fundamentally opposed to the American dream. It's a

1077
00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:44,920
Speaker 5: sad day for the Republic In my opinion.

1078
00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:48,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a you know, I've seen some people

1079
00:58:49,040 --> 00:58:50,760
Speaker 3: arguing that, well, we're going to have to get more

1080
00:58:50,880 --> 00:58:54,200
Speaker 3: specific than this, but I don't know. I mean, look,

1081
00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:57,720
Speaker 3: I believe in bright lines and big, big ideas in campaigns,

1082
00:58:57,760 --> 00:59:00,600
Speaker 3: and I think the President's got this thing painted just

1083
00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:03,600
Speaker 3: about right. Let's talk about Iran. President has been bombing

1084
00:59:03,640 --> 00:59:06,760
Speaker 3: Iran for I think thirteen straight nights. Now, it's obvious

1085
00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:09,640
Speaker 3: that he's not hearstad that he cease fires at the moment.

1086
00:59:10,360 --> 00:59:13,760
Speaker 3: We'll start here. Do you believe that the war and

1087
00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:18,320
Speaker 3: ongoing war operations against Iran? Do you believe this is

1088
00:59:18,360 --> 00:59:21,800
Speaker 3: going to be a political negative or not that big

1089
00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:24,920
Speaker 3: a deal for Republican candidates on the ballot this fall.

1090
00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:28,800
Speaker 5: Look, I think that the election was three or four

1091
00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:30,840
Speaker 5: weeks ago, it could have done a potential problem. But

1092
00:59:30,880 --> 00:59:32,440
Speaker 5: I think by the time we get to November, this

1093
00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:34,760
Speaker 5: is something that will been adjudicated. I think that the

1094
00:59:34,840 --> 00:59:39,240
Speaker 5: average American is happy to see our enemies, you know,

1095
00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:41,240
Speaker 5: put a hurt on our enemies, things like that, And

1096
00:59:41,280 --> 00:59:42,919
Speaker 5: I think that by the time we get an election

1097
00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:44,880
Speaker 5: day and folks will be voting on you know, who

1098
00:59:44,880 --> 00:59:46,880
Speaker 5: do they believe in make them feel safe? Who do

1099
00:59:46,920 --> 00:59:50,440
Speaker 5: they believe in to project strength for America?

1100
00:59:51,840 --> 00:59:54,720
Speaker 3: Yeah? I do too. I look, we played earlier in

1101
00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:57,400
Speaker 3: the show, Jonathan, this entire floor speech from Tim Sheeheay,

1102
00:59:57,440 --> 01:00:00,000
Speaker 3: the Senator from Montana, and in five and a half

1103
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:04,160
Speaker 3: minutes just laid waste to all the insane democratic arguments.

1104
01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:07,720
Speaker 3: I mean, these democrats again, they always go two to

1105
01:00:07,800 --> 01:00:10,000
Speaker 3: four or five steps too far. And now you hear

1106
01:00:10,080 --> 01:00:14,439
Speaker 3: democrat after democrat effectively just reading propaganda from the IRGC.

1107
01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:17,080
Speaker 3: There was actually an interesting back and forth on CNN

1108
01:00:17,160 --> 01:00:20,120
Speaker 3: last night between Rokana, who I used to think was

1109
01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:22,720
Speaker 3: a reasonable person but has become a Looney Tunes and

1110
01:00:22,880 --> 01:00:26,520
Speaker 3: former Republican Congressman Peter Meyer. Let's play this and comment

1111
01:00:26,560 --> 01:00:27,280
Speaker 3: on it. Cut eleven.

1112
01:00:28,440 --> 01:00:31,160
Speaker 16: The President has made a mess of things, made a

1113
01:00:31,200 --> 01:00:34,479
Speaker 16: mess of the economy, but his ego will not permit

1114
01:00:34,600 --> 01:00:37,760
Speaker 16: him to go to Shijinping and the European leaders and

1115
01:00:37,960 --> 01:00:41,640
Speaker 16: have a multilateral solution to get us out of this

1116
01:00:41,760 --> 01:00:42,600
Speaker 16: mess and to help the.

1117
01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:47,440
Speaker 3: I mean, the Iranians killed an order of magnitude more

1118
01:00:47,760 --> 01:00:50,360
Speaker 3: Americans under President Obama than they have under.

1119
01:00:50,200 --> 01:00:52,400
Speaker 1: President That's just not true. It's absolutely true.

1120
01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:54,960
Speaker 3: I was interrockting in the EFPs that the Iranians were

1121
01:00:54,960 --> 01:00:55,480
Speaker 3: sent to.

1122
01:00:58,720 --> 01:01:02,600
Speaker 16: Obama didn't go to Dover Air Force Base and have

1123
01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:06,280
Speaker 16: to look at dead Americans coming in. Obama didn't preside

1124
01:01:06,320 --> 01:01:07,040
Speaker 16: over the straight up.

1125
01:01:07,680 --> 01:01:09,400
Speaker 1: Because there were my colleagues coming back from Iraq.

1126
01:01:09,440 --> 01:01:12,080
Speaker 16: From Iraq, but not from the direct.

1127
01:01:11,840 --> 01:01:14,880
Speaker 3: Were killed by Iranian by battles.

1128
01:01:15,320 --> 01:01:20,240
Speaker 16: Yes, those were being killed under the first Trump term

1129
01:01:20,280 --> 01:01:22,080
Speaker 16: as well. And you know that as well as I do.

1130
01:01:22,320 --> 01:01:26,440
Speaker 16: Trump has created a disaster and killed and what he

1131
01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:27,320
Speaker 16: has done is he.

1132
01:01:28,640 --> 01:01:33,120
Speaker 3: This exchange was wild because Rokana is effectively out there

1133
01:01:33,440 --> 01:01:35,960
Speaker 3: arguing that we've never had a problem with Iran before,

1134
01:01:36,680 --> 01:01:39,000
Speaker 3: and Peter Meyer is saying flat and by the way,

1135
01:01:39,040 --> 01:01:41,400
Speaker 3: he was there, Peter Meyer served in Iraq. You don't

1136
01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:44,280
Speaker 3: understand these Iranian terror proxies had been at war with

1137
01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:45,880
Speaker 3: us for a very long time. What do you make

1138
01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:49,880
Speaker 3: of the Democrats completely minimizing or carrying water for the

1139
01:01:49,960 --> 01:01:51,520
Speaker 3: atrocities of the Iranian regime.

1140
01:01:53,040 --> 01:01:55,080
Speaker 5: It's it's just illusion, And like I said, it's sad.

1141
01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:56,720
Speaker 5: It's a sad statement on the state, on the state

1142
01:01:56,720 --> 01:01:58,760
Speaker 5: of one of our parties here in America. I mean

1143
01:01:58,760 --> 01:02:00,960
Speaker 5: I think back to the war in Iraq, were in Afghanistan.

1144
01:02:01,480 --> 01:02:03,520
Speaker 5: Even at the worst moments during those two wars, you know,

1145
01:02:03,560 --> 01:02:05,960
Speaker 5: the biggest critics of those wars, we could all agree though,

1146
01:02:06,000 --> 01:02:08,439
Speaker 5: that Iran was bad, and it was a very well known,

1147
01:02:08,480 --> 01:02:11,400
Speaker 5: commonly known fact that Iran was the one funding a

1148
01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:14,440
Speaker 5: lot of these terrorist attacks in both countries. I mean,

1149
01:02:14,440 --> 01:02:15,960
Speaker 5: I think back to my time in Kabul, when I

1150
01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:18,760
Speaker 5: was doing civilian work and nothing remotely dangerous relative to

1151
01:02:18,800 --> 01:02:21,120
Speaker 5: what our military does. And I was talking to one

1152
01:02:21,120 --> 01:02:23,600
Speaker 5: of my members of my security team who he'd retired

1153
01:02:23,600 --> 01:02:27,160
Speaker 5: from a fairly select unit in the US military, and

1154
01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:29,120
Speaker 5: he said, the one thing that would make him go

1155
01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:30,560
Speaker 5: back to the military would be if we went to

1156
01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:32,600
Speaker 5: war with Iran, just based on the fact that the

1157
01:02:32,640 --> 01:02:36,400
Speaker 5: Iranian government had killed so many American soldiers in both countries.

1158
01:02:37,560 --> 01:02:41,560
Speaker 3: I was on CNN the other night with this person

1159
01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:45,320
Speaker 3: named Caroline Sunshine, who purported to be some sort of

1160
01:02:45,320 --> 01:02:48,480
Speaker 3: of a communications aid on the Trump campaign. I think

1161
01:02:48,520 --> 01:02:51,640
Speaker 3: she may be inflating her resume, but we'll leave that there.

1162
01:02:51,840 --> 01:02:54,480
Speaker 3: At any rate, I'm sting they're arguing that we're sitting

1163
01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:57,400
Speaker 3: there arguing this out. And she said, and I say

1164
01:02:57,440 --> 01:02:59,240
Speaker 3: what I've been saying. They've been at war with US

1165
01:02:59,240 --> 01:03:01,840
Speaker 3: for forty seven year and finally Trump is fighting back.

1166
01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:04,240
Speaker 3: And she said, I've never even heard of Iran doing

1167
01:03:04,280 --> 01:03:07,520
Speaker 3: anything against America until people like you started saying it

1168
01:03:07,600 --> 01:03:12,120
Speaker 3: this year. It's incident after incident, and terrorist attack after

1169
01:03:12,240 --> 01:03:16,000
Speaker 3: terrorist attack, and dead America and dead soldier after dead soldier.

1170
01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:19,200
Speaker 3: And you have these people coming along pretending like Iran

1171
01:03:19,320 --> 01:03:22,440
Speaker 3: has never been a problem until Donald Trump brought it up.

1172
01:03:22,480 --> 01:03:26,760
Speaker 3: It is childish. It is crazy that anybody out there

1173
01:03:26,760 --> 01:03:30,040
Speaker 3: would minimize the threat of Iran to America but also

1174
01:03:30,080 --> 01:03:33,400
Speaker 3: to all of Western civilization. Jonathan Felts, is are pundit

Speaker 3: week is Raleigh, North Carolina's Pride Jonathan Feltz, one of

1206
01:05:13,880 --> 01:05:16,760
Speaker 3: the greatest political operatives for the Republican Party in the

1207
01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:18,880
Speaker 3: Tar Hills State. Mister Pelts, I'm going to play a

1208
01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:22,280
Speaker 3: clip for you, and I want to talk about this

1209
01:05:23,360 --> 01:05:26,439
Speaker 3: Hunter Biden. You know, I don't understand. I see Hunter

1210
01:05:26,480 --> 01:05:29,200
Speaker 3: Biden on social media and people on the right are

1211
01:05:29,240 --> 01:05:33,760
Speaker 3: like embracing Hunter Biden. He is a degenerate loser. And

1212
01:05:34,120 --> 01:05:37,720
Speaker 3: my colleague and friend at CNN, Jake Tepper, made it

1213
01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:40,560
Speaker 3: out plain in a podcast this week. Let's hear that

1214
01:05:40,600 --> 01:05:41,120
Speaker 3: and cut ten.

1215
01:05:41,560 --> 01:05:44,000
Speaker 14: How big a factor was the Hunter stuff?

1216
01:05:44,080 --> 01:05:45,120
Speaker 1: I think it was considerable.

1217
01:05:45,120 --> 01:05:48,000
Speaker 15: I think Hunter was driving the decision making for the

1218
01:05:48,040 --> 01:05:51,160
Speaker 15: family in a way that people he was almost like

1219
01:05:51,200 --> 01:05:52,840
Speaker 15: a chief of staff of the fans.

1220
01:05:52,880 --> 01:05:54,720
Speaker 14: Does that strike you as pretty bizarre?

1221
01:05:54,880 --> 01:06:00,920
Speaker 15: It's bizarre because I think he is provably, demonstrably unethical, sleazy,

1222
01:06:01,120 --> 01:06:02,920
Speaker 15: and prone to horrible decisions.

1223
01:06:03,120 --> 01:06:05,840
Speaker 14: I mean, tell me how you really feel well, I mean,

1224
01:06:05,880 --> 01:06:08,160
Speaker 14: I just just look at the record.

1225
01:06:08,400 --> 01:06:11,000
Speaker 15: I mean, after his brother died, he cheated on his

1226
01:06:11,040 --> 01:06:13,240
Speaker 15: wife with his brother's widow and then got her addicted

1227
01:06:13,280 --> 01:06:16,080
Speaker 15: to crack That's just one thing I could say. I

1228
01:06:16,080 --> 01:06:20,920
Speaker 15: mean there, I don't have a lot of personal regard

1229
01:06:21,040 --> 01:06:23,960
Speaker 15: for him, and just based on having nothing to do

1230
01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:26,200
Speaker 15: with I barely have ever met him. I've met him

1231
01:06:26,240 --> 01:06:29,680
Speaker 15: like once or twice. But I knew bo Bo was

1232
01:06:29,720 --> 01:06:31,640
Speaker 15: a great, upstanding guy.

1233
01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:32,640
Speaker 14: I knew him too.

1234
01:06:33,040 --> 01:06:36,280
Speaker 15: Really a real loss for the country too, not just

1235
01:06:36,320 --> 01:06:38,880
Speaker 15: for his family, for the country. But Hunter is not

1236
01:06:39,120 --> 01:06:43,640
Speaker 15: that and the idea of letting him drive the family

1237
01:06:43,680 --> 01:06:47,120
Speaker 15: car as it were, is just really really questionable.

1238
01:06:48,680 --> 01:06:53,360
Speaker 3: Jake Tapper laying the wood to a proverbally to Hunter

1239
01:06:53,400 --> 01:06:54,360
Speaker 3: Biden there, What do you make of that?

1240
01:06:54,440 --> 01:06:58,320
Speaker 5: Jonathan Well, I think Jake's speaking truth in this almost matter.

1241
01:06:58,360 --> 01:07:00,840
Speaker 5: I mean, it's it's terrifying. I think that this guy

1242
01:07:00,840 --> 01:07:03,040
Speaker 5: had the keys to the car, even back when Biden

1243
01:07:03,080 --> 01:07:05,640
Speaker 5: was president and still in the White House. I think

1244
01:07:05,760 --> 01:07:09,200
Speaker 5: most every decision that Hunter was in charge of led

1245
01:07:09,200 --> 01:07:12,080
Speaker 5: to a bad decisional part of the Biden presidency, and

1246
01:07:12,120 --> 01:07:14,480
Speaker 5: it's continuing now as they go into the post presidency.

1247
01:07:15,760 --> 01:07:15,960
Speaker 9: Yeah.

1248
01:07:16,240 --> 01:07:19,920
Speaker 3: You know, I remember doing campaign coverage back on CNN

1249
01:07:19,960 --> 01:07:21,960
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty four, and you know, even in the

1250
01:07:22,040 --> 01:07:24,080
Speaker 3: run up, even before the campaign, mean, it was pretty

1251
01:07:24,080 --> 01:07:26,760
Speaker 3: obvious and kind of well reported that Hunter Biden was,

1252
01:07:27,200 --> 01:07:29,400
Speaker 3: as Jake said, being treated as a de facto chief

1253
01:07:29,400 --> 01:07:31,520
Speaker 3: of staff and decision maker in the Biden white House

1254
01:07:31,560 --> 01:07:34,280
Speaker 3: because Biden wasn't capable. But you know, I remember if

1255
01:07:34,280 --> 01:07:36,320
Speaker 3: you used to bring up any of the things Jake said,

1256
01:07:36,320 --> 01:07:40,160
Speaker 3: there all the personal judgment issues like all I mean,

1257
01:07:40,480 --> 01:07:42,120
Speaker 3: I mean, I think I called him a sleeves bag

1258
01:07:42,200 --> 01:07:44,160
Speaker 3: on TV one day. But what I tell you what,

1259
01:07:44,280 --> 01:07:47,600
Speaker 3: you'd get criticized. Oh, Scott, you can't do that. You

1260
01:07:47,640 --> 01:07:49,560
Speaker 3: can't say that. You don't know that it could. It's

1261
01:07:49,600 --> 01:07:51,240
Speaker 3: funny to me. It can all be told now. But

1262
01:07:51,280 --> 01:07:52,760
Speaker 3: if you brought up any of this at the time,

1263
01:07:52,800 --> 01:07:54,200
Speaker 3: you were smacked on the wrist.

1264
01:07:55,520 --> 01:07:56,960
Speaker 5: I feel like the go to line was it was

1265
01:07:57,200 --> 01:07:58,560
Speaker 5: unconscionable what you were doing.

1266
01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:03,000
Speaker 3: That's right, it was unconscionable that you would point out

1267
01:08:03,000 --> 01:08:05,200
Speaker 3: these very obvious things that were going on in our

1268
01:08:05,240 --> 01:08:07,360
Speaker 3: white House. All right, Jonathan, we got a couple of

1269
01:08:07,360 --> 01:08:09,080
Speaker 3: minutes to go, and it is the time of the

1270
01:08:09,120 --> 01:08:13,400
Speaker 3: show for Friday Punditry, when we engage in our winners

1271
01:08:13,640 --> 01:08:16,559
Speaker 3: and losers of the week. I always give my guest

1272
01:08:16,560 --> 01:08:19,439
Speaker 3: pundit the honor of picking the winner, mister Phelps, who's

1273
01:08:19,439 --> 01:08:20,639
Speaker 3: the winner of the week in America?

1274
01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:23,760
Speaker 5: Oh, winner of the week, in my opinion is the

1275
01:08:23,920 --> 01:08:28,360
Speaker 5: Boston Red Sox. They matched their franchise record for most

1276
01:08:28,400 --> 01:08:30,960
Speaker 5: wins in a row with fifteen. They did lose just

1277
01:08:31,000 --> 01:08:33,479
Speaker 5: the other day, but that fifteen game wins drink has

1278
01:08:33,520 --> 01:08:35,400
Speaker 5: now put them in a strong contention for the wild

1279
01:08:35,400 --> 01:08:37,839
Speaker 5: card spot in the playoffs. And so, as a lifelong

1280
01:08:37,880 --> 01:08:39,280
Speaker 5: Red Sox fan, I love to see it. If you

1281
01:08:39,280 --> 01:08:41,040
Speaker 5: look just above my shoulder here you can see a

1282
01:08:41,280 --> 01:08:43,840
Speaker 5: Winston Salem Red Sox baseball cap from when they had

1283
01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:46,040
Speaker 5: a farm league team here in North Carolina. So go

1284
01:08:46,160 --> 01:08:46,679
Speaker 5: Red Sox.

1285
01:08:47,680 --> 01:08:49,760
Speaker 3: All right, Winner of the week, Boston Red Sox. Yeah,

1286
01:08:49,760 --> 01:08:53,120
Speaker 3: they were languishing, fired their manager and now they've gone

1287
01:08:53,120 --> 01:08:55,840
Speaker 3: on this epic run. And it's good for baseball. By

1288
01:08:55,880 --> 01:08:59,320
Speaker 3: the way, when you have more competition in these divisions

1289
01:08:59,400 --> 01:09:01,200
Speaker 3: is a good things. We'll cheer on the Red Sox.

1290
01:09:01,280 --> 01:09:04,080
Speaker 3: There's a couple of former Cardinals there because of some trading.

1291
01:09:04,120 --> 01:09:06,760
Speaker 3: You got Wilson Contreras and you've got Sonny Gray who's

1292
01:09:06,760 --> 01:09:09,880
Speaker 3: had a great year. So we'll cheer on the Red

1293
01:09:09,880 --> 01:09:12,519
Speaker 3: Sox as we over here in the National League Central

1294
01:09:12,760 --> 01:09:15,000
Speaker 3: try to resuscitate the Saint Louis Cardinals, which I'm going

1295
01:09:15,040 --> 01:09:16,720
Speaker 3: to try to do in person this weekend. All right,

1296
01:09:16,760 --> 01:09:18,320
Speaker 3: it's my job to pick the loser of the week.

1297
01:09:18,640 --> 01:09:20,960
Speaker 3: A lot of losers out there, but I'm going to

1298
01:09:21,040 --> 01:09:24,240
Speaker 3: go with Zoron Mamdani, the mayor of New York City,

1299
01:09:25,120 --> 01:09:27,680
Speaker 3: for a couple of reasons. Number one, yes, there is

1300
01:09:27,720 --> 01:09:30,439
Speaker 3: on your screen the smiling instrument of our destruction here

1301
01:09:30,439 --> 01:09:33,720
Speaker 3: in America, zora On Momdanni. He spent all of this

1302
01:09:33,840 --> 01:09:37,719
Speaker 3: time during the campaign promising to arrest Benjamin Netan Yahoo,

1303
01:09:38,320 --> 01:09:41,080
Speaker 3: and all of his anti Semitic supporters lapped it up.

1304
01:09:41,120 --> 01:09:43,320
Speaker 3: He spent a good chunk of his time over the

1305
01:09:43,400 --> 01:09:45,679
Speaker 3: last couple of weeks saying I'm going to arrest Benjamin

1306
01:09:45,680 --> 01:09:48,679
Speaker 3: Netan Yahoo. But then he was finally forced to give

1307
01:09:48,800 --> 01:09:52,240
Speaker 3: a speech admitting, oh wait, this isn't the model you in.

1308
01:09:52,520 --> 01:09:55,640
Speaker 3: I in fact cannot arrest Benjamin Nettan Yahoo when he

1309
01:09:55,680 --> 01:09:58,800
Speaker 3: comes to New York. And what it didn't stop him

1310
01:09:58,800 --> 01:10:02,640
Speaker 3: from doing Jonathan wasntinuing to spread evil propaganda against the

1311
01:10:02,720 --> 01:10:05,200
Speaker 3: Jewish people. And then, of course we have another terrible

1312
01:10:05,200 --> 01:10:08,360
Speaker 3: anti Semitic attack in front of a synagogue, so Zornmamdani

1313
01:10:08,840 --> 01:10:11,200
Speaker 3: Loser of the Week, Jonathan Felt, You've been a great pundit.

1314
01:10:11,760 --> 01:10:14,320
Speaker 3: Good luck on the North Carolina Senate race this year,

1315
01:10:14,680 --> 01:10:16,720
Speaker 3: and thanks for joining us here on the Scott Jennings Show.

1316
01:10:16,760 --> 01:10:18,760
Speaker 3: It's time for us to wrap it up. Thank you

1317
01:10:18,840 --> 01:10:21,280
Speaker 3: all so much for listening. Have a wonderful weekend. We'll

1318
01:10:21,280 --> 01:10:23,880
Speaker 3: be back on Monday with all the breaking political news,

1319
01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:27,679
Speaker 3: common sense for the American people. Thanks for listening.
