13
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 3: the Twitter feeds, the X feeds, but I forgot it

00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 3: just right down the middle, ladies and gentlemen, as best

19
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 3: we can, because there is so much stuff going on

20
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 3: around Dylan. So, so last night the uh, the White

21
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 3: House and House, President Trump is addressing the nation on

22
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 3: a matter of utmost importance, and that's happening at nine

23
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,480
Speaker 3: o'clock Eastern. You'll be able to listen to that on

24
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 3: your local radio station.

25
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 2: Uh.

26
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,400
Speaker 3: Then we got word that the Australian Prime Minister was

27
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 3: gonna hold a major in a major national address, and

28
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 3: the British Prime Minister was going to hold a national address.

29
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 3: And Dylan, I can't tell you, there must have been

30
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 3: millions of people. Next thing, the aliens they're going to

31
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 3: an outs the invasion. We have people that are not

32
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 3: Earthlings living among us. I know people really thought that.

33
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 3: And then you've got to remember disgraced Congressman Matt Gates.

34
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 3: Apparently Americans have been pro creating with the alien people.

35
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 3: So now we have what human hybrids out there? I

36
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 3: have a I just want to know who they are.

37
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,080
Speaker 3: I have a I have a running list. Many of

38
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 3: them I believe to be in Hollywood, and one may

39
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 3: in fact be a senator from South Carolina who a

40
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 3: grown man who likes to wander around Disney World. Possibly.

41
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 3: So I'm just wondering who are those people who are

42
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 3: the who are the offspring of the alien the alien species.

43
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 3: So I don't think that's it. People, So I think

44
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,639
Speaker 3: you can breathe easy. But I'm telling you, people are

45
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:57,079
Speaker 3: really getting like riled up over this, and there's there's

46
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 3: a lot of anxiety out there about what they're President

47
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 3: is going to say tonight. We we know that it's

48
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 3: gonna be something about uh and around update reach down

49
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 3: to the White House and they're keeping they're keeping the

50
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 3: cards close to the vest on this, so, uh, what

51
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:17,359
Speaker 3: was it? Alex Jones is saying that that Trump has

52
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 3: done that, he's he's not the guy he used to be.

53
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,080
Speaker 3: We're gonna play this audio a little bit later. It's insane,

54
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 3: but it seems as though Mago World, you know, the

55
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 3: big influencers of Maga World, and and look, let's get real.

56
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 3: There are a lot of grifters that have jumped on to,

57
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 3: you know, the Maga agenda, and that's really not it.

58
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 3: And I want to if they have they don't believe

59
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 3: what you and I believe, even though they may profess to.

60
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 3: And I think that's ultimately what we're beginning to see.

61
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 3: The great I'm calling it the Great Unveiling because a

62
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 3: lot of these people, much like the the aliens who

63
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 3: use I don't know, human skin to disguise themselves. Allegedly,

64
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 3: that's exactly what these grifters had been doing for many,

65
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 3: many years, going all the way back to twenty sixteen.

66
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 3: And it's easy to forget that many of these people

67
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 3: hated Donald Trump. They despised Donald Trump. But you know what,

68
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 3: when Donald Trump won, all of a sudden, they threw

69
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 3: themselves at his feet. And the reason why is they

70
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 3: wanted access to power, They wanted access to the money,

71
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 3: they wanted access to the celebrity. And here are a

72
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 3: couple of warning signs about all of that. You know,

73
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,920
Speaker 3: we had Franklin Graham on the show yesterday, and I

74
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 3: love Franklin Graham's he's a good man. I remember when

75
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 3: the word leaked out about my contract not being renewed

76
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 3: at Fox, there are two people that called me just

77
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 3: to see how I was doing. One of them was

78
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 3: Jerry Folwell Junior and the other was Franklin Graham. Right away,

79
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 3: those were the very first first calls I got, and

80
00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:02,480
Speaker 3: it surprised me, but there were there were, it was

81
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 3: no strings attached phone calls saying how can I help you?

82
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 3: What can I do? And of course we had already

83
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:10,719
Speaker 3: had a plan in place. But man, that meant the

84
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,479
Speaker 3: world to me, because that tells that told me those

85
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 3: guys were the real deal. You know, they never they

86
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,600
Speaker 3: never mentioned in public that they had made a phone

87
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 3: call to me. And so when I when I saw

88
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 3: the post from President Trump about Franklin Graham and you know,

89
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:27,359
Speaker 3: President Trump's out there and again I've had conversations with

90
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 3: the President about this particular matter, and I'm not going

91
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 3: to divulge it, but but the President shared a private

92
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 3: letter that Franklin had written to him about his the

93
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 3: state of his soul and where you know, this idea

94
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 3: that the President wasn't quite sure where he was going

95
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 3: to be spending eternity, and you know, Franklin Graham didn't know.

96
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 3: Is that a joke, mister President? Were you just being

97
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 3: you know, some good natured humor or are you serious

98
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 3: about that? And if you if you are having doubts?

99
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 3: And Franklin sort of laid it out in this letter

100
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,839
Speaker 3: that President Trump shared. You know what I respect most

101
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 3: about that is that we never would have known that

102
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 3: that letter had been written had it not been for

103
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 3: President Trump sharing it, because Franklin Graham never mentioned it,

104
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 3: and he never would have because it was a private,

105
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 3: personal manner. Franklin Graham is the real deal. You know

106
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,480
Speaker 3: who I have a problem with all of these preachers

107
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,280
Speaker 3: and you know who, you know who I'm talking about.

108
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 3: And they just rushed to the White House, so you know,

109
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 3: they can, you know, publicly say that they counseled and

110
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,599
Speaker 3: gave spiritual counsel to President Trump, and they held a

111
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 3: worship service in the Oval Office, and you know, they

112
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 3: spoke in tongues, you know, over President Trump and all

113
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,279
Speaker 3: this kind And I'm not saying any of that is wrong.

114
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 3: I'm just really questioning their motives. That's what I'm doing,

115
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 3: because you know what, it's all about you, and it's

116
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 3: not about the President of the United States at that point.

117
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:55,840
Speaker 3: Right by the way, look at all those folks that

118
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 3: are going down to mar A Lago, the business people

119
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 3: and the want to be business people, the grifters trying

120
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 3: to get intomorrow Lago. So there's a whole lot of

121
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 3: that happening. And I'm trying to get around to the

122
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 3: point here because we have so much ground to cover

123
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 3: tod But point number one, ladies and gentlemen, is that

124
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 3: Donald Trump is still the same man that he was

125
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 3: when he came down that Golden escalator to announce that

126
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 3: he was running for president the first time around. Donald

127
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 3: Trump is the same guy who back in the nineteen

128
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 3: seventies and eighties said that we need to go after Iran.

129
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 3: That is the same Donald Trump that we have in

130
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 3: office today. His views have not deviated one iota. So

131
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:49,679
Speaker 3: all of these people, now the grifter crowd, the reason

132
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 3: why they're breaking from Donald Trump is they believe that

133
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 3: Trump is losing some sort of status in America and

134
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 3: so they're trying to both. They believe that they're not

135
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 3: going to be able to grift at the same levels anymore.

136
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 3: So that's why they're beginning to bolt, and they're beginning

137
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 3: to show their true colors. And it's really despicable. And

138
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 3: I have no problem talking about this because, just like

139
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 3: President Trump, our positions have never changed. And I truly

140
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 3: do believe that we must have a secure border, and

141
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 3: I also believe that every single illegal alien in this

142
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 3: country must go back to their home country and apply

143
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 3: to come to this nation the right way. That that

144
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 3: position has never changed and has never wavered period. When

145
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 3: President Trump, and he's at the Supreme Court this morning,

146
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 3: and the President is watching the arguments over birthright citizenship.

147
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:51,679
Speaker 3: The fact of the matter is and our our us.

148
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:56,479
Speaker 3: The Solicitor General made an excellent point today when he said, ultimately,

149
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,559
Speaker 3: do you realize that the under the interpretation of the

150
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:03,959
Speaker 3: demark it's eight billion people in the world. Eight billion

151
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 3: people could book an airline flight and they could have

152
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 3: a baby on American soil and they would be an

153
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 3: American citizen. And that's got to stop. That's not what

154
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 3: our founding fathers intended. So we'll place on audio from

155
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 3: the Supreme Court. There's some really riveting stuff going on there.

156
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 3: But again, going back to President Trump and what's happening

157
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,680
Speaker 3: in Iran and the address tonight, and a lot of

158
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:31,959
Speaker 3: people are freaked out about this. Well I knew it. MTG.

159
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 3: No boots on the ground, you know, folks, Can we

160
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 3: all just take a deep breath here. Donald Trump has

161
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 3: not gotten us into a forever war. And Donald Trump

162
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 3: is not a war hawk by any stretch of the imagination.

163
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:51,680
Speaker 3: Donald Trump is looking out for what is best for America, period.

164
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 3: That's when he wakes up in the morning after two

165
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 3: hours of sleep, and he sits down for breakfast. The

166
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 3: most important question of the day him is is this

167
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 3: good for America? And the President made the determination that

168
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 3: a radioactive nuclear cloud, a mushroom cloud over Chicago or

169
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,679
Speaker 3: Des Moines or Nashville would not be in the best

170
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,960
Speaker 3: interest of the nation. So the President said, We're going

171
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,120
Speaker 3: to put a stop to this. And that's what's happening

172
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:20,080
Speaker 3: in Iran right now.

173
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 4: Now.

174
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,440
Speaker 3: Do I believe Am I concerned about that?

175
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:23,720
Speaker 5: Well?

176
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,760
Speaker 3: Of course, who would not be concerned because we all

177
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 3: know what happened in afghanist and we all know what

178
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,720
Speaker 3: happened in Iraq. But there's one big difference. The difference

179
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 3: is that Donald J. Trump is in the Oval office

180
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:40,560
Speaker 3: right now, and Donald Trump has made the determination. He's

181
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 3: done the calculations, and he's determined that this is what

182
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 3: needed to happen. And I'm willing to give the man

183
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 3: the benefit of the doubt. You said, well, what about

184
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 3: all the boots on the ground, the thousands of soldiers

185
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 3: and marines that are being prepositioned in the Middle East?

186
00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 3: What about it? What about it? I'm I'm willing to

187
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,319
Speaker 3: say this. I don't believe And look, I may be

188
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 3: wrong about this, but I don't believe we're gonna see

189
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 3: boots on the ground. But the Iranians don't know that.

190
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 3: Nobody knows what Trump is going to do right now,

191
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 3: and that is the strategy. That's the whole point. I mean,

192
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,959
Speaker 3: you had previous presidents who got out there and literally said,

193
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 3: all right, Rod, if you don't do this by this date,

194
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,560
Speaker 3: we're gonna do X, Y and Z and they we're

195
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 3: gonna leave.

196
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 5: No.

197
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 3: Well, that is such a losing strategy. So now you

198
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 3: have everybody in the world on edge, and you know

199
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 3: why they're on edge because they don't know what Donald

200
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 3: Trump's gonna do. And that's the exact kind of leader

201
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 3: we need in the White House right now. And all

202
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 3: of these grifters, all of these folks like Marjorie Taylor

203
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 3: Green and Tucker Carlson and Megan Kelly and Candace Owens

204
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 3: and Alex Jones, everybody out there, Ah, he's gonna get

205
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 3: We're gonna lose thousands of our fighting men and women. No, well,

206
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 3: I don't think we all are, because ultimately Donald Trump

207
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 3: wants Iran and all the rest of the world to

208
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 3: see that we are willing to do what needs to

209
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 3: be done. No, matter the cost. We can't do that

210
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,800
Speaker 3: if our fighting men and women are still on military

211
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 3: basis in the United States, we are. We are demonstrating

212
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:26,680
Speaker 3: a massive, a massive show of force, not only to

213
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 3: Iran but to the rest of the world that we

214
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:35,319
Speaker 3: will protect American interest no matter what. And I love

215
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 3: the President for that. So, you know, maybe instead of

216
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,960
Speaker 3: all these people panicking on social media, maybe they should

217
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 3: just step back and we get it. We've heard your opinions.

218
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 3: Just step back and watch what President Trump does. Nine

219
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 3: oh one two six zero five nine two six is

220
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 3: our telephone number. That's nine oh one two six zero

221
00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 3: five nine two six. I mean, the polling data has

222
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 3: not changed at all, Ladies and gentlemen. An overwhelming number

223
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 3: of Americans support what the President is doing here. And

224
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 3: I think one of the reasons why the younger people

225
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 3: and I'm talking about millennials and gen zers, why they

226
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 3: are not on board, is because they simply have not

227
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 3: been taught the history. They are not paying attention to

228
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 3: what Iran has done to this nation. So look, we're

229
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:25,839
Speaker 3: gonna get into all of that. We're going to be

230
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 3: taking your calls. If you agree or disagree, give me

231
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,920

251

Speaker 3: is the Toad Sterns Radio Show. And again, folks, just

252
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 3: all of you folks that are concerned about Donald Trump. Oh,

253
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:57,320
Speaker 3: he's off his rocker. He's starting to lose it mentally.

254
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 3: I mean, that's what Alex Jones is saying. Folks, take

255
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 3: a deep, deep breath. We want the rest of the

256
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 3: world to think President Trump is crazy because with that

257
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 3: we take the upper hands. We want people wondering what

258
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 3: this guy is going to do next. But ladies and gentlemen,

259
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 3: Donald Trump has delivered on every single thing that he

260
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 3: is promised to us. He has not done anything that

261
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 3: is remotely problematic in my estimation. Now, if we put

262
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 3: boots on the ground in Iran, well I'm going to

263
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 3: have a conversation about that if and when that happens.

264
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 3: But again, right now, the Iranians, all they need to

265
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 3: know is they're getting their butts blown to smithereens. And

266
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 3: you've got about I know, four or five thousand, who

267
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 3: knows how many troops waiting on ships right off of

268
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 3: their coastline. You think they're really sleeping well these days,

269
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 3: not even with the Mapello the Iranian version. All right,

270
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 3: let's go to the phone lines here, nine oh one

271
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 3: two six to zero six Steve and Little Rock, Arkansas. Steve,

272
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 3: what's on your mind?

273
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 2: Todd?

274
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 6: I believe it is a crying shame that we finally

275
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 6: have a president that is trained to do in the

276
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 6: Middle East what should have been done back in nineteen

277
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 6: seventy three during the first Opec coaling bargo, when they

278
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 6: started using oil like a cock doon against the rest

279
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 6: of the world's head to get their way and push

280
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 6: their agenda. And now that somebody is finally trying to

281
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 6: do something about that and give some stability in that

282
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 6: part of the world when it comes oil, which is

283
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 6: me that's just as important as air and water to

284
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 6: our civilization. The best weapon the rhyme has right now

285
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 6: are the American public. They're so dang wishy wash, They're

286
00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 6: so dame whining. They sound like a bunch of four

287
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 6: year olds that are in the car going on a

288
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:06,639
Speaker 6: trip asking every five minutes when are we going to

289
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:08,400
Speaker 6: get there? When are we going to get there?

290
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 7: Steve?

291
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:13,880
Speaker 3: There are actually people, I think there are, well, there

292
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,159
Speaker 3: certainly are people in the media, but I think there

293
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:19,200
Speaker 3: are even people on on the Republican side of the

294
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:22,440
Speaker 3: aisle who are I don't know rooting for Iran here

295
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:26,439
Speaker 3: it's you know what, where is your patriotism. I'm getting

296
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:29,879
Speaker 3: sick and tired of these grifters out there, the Tucker

297
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 3: Carlson and Alex Jones, all of that crowd. They sound

298
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,359
Speaker 3: they are spewing the same talking points that are coming

299
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 3: from MSNBC and CNN right now.

300
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:46,200
Speaker 6: It don't making a chance to be I don't think

301
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:46,919
Speaker 6: it makes sense.

302
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 8: It's for money.

303
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 6: That's the only thing that makes any logical scene.

304
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,679
Speaker 3: Steve appreciate the call, and it's look, it's a valid

305
00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 3: point you raise. But again, ladies and gentlemen, who side

306
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:04,320
Speaker 3: are you one here? Do you support the United States

307
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:06,639
Speaker 3: of America and our commander in chief or are you

308
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:10,639
Speaker 3: with the Iranians. By the way, President Trump already hinting

309
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:13,440
Speaker 3: that he may pull out of NATO, and the reason

310
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:17,719
Speaker 3: why is none not a single NATO nations offering to

311
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:20,919
Speaker 3: contribute any money to the cause. Then you've got a

312
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 3: number of NATO nations that are refusing to allow our

313
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:29,320
Speaker 3: military to use their bases their runways as staging areas

314
00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:33,120
Speaker 3: for our operation in Iran. Right now, you know, at

315
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:37,240
Speaker 3: that point, I don't blame the president one bit NATO

316
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,679
Speaker 3: comes as screaming every time Russia decides to invade a

317
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:44,200
Speaker 3: country and we have to come running to their defense. Well,

318
00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 3: what's the point, ladies and gentlemen. The only time the

319
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 3: European nations need us is when somebody invades their country.

320
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:55,680
Speaker 3: I say, you know what, folks, You're on your own.

321
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:58,640
Speaker 3: That's it. No more money from us, no more support

322
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,719
Speaker 3: from us. You're run your own. You had a chance

323
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,400
Speaker 3: and you blew it. So I don't blame the President

324
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:07,359
Speaker 3: one bit for what he's about to do with NATO.

325
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 3: And I'm telling you all of those Europeans they better

326
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 3: be trembling in their boots. All right, coming up, I

327
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 3: really don't want to do this, but we got to

328
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,160
Speaker 3: talk about We got to talk about Christy Nooms's husband.

329
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 3: Who would have thought he was the bigger boob in

330
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:27,400
Speaker 3: the relationship. All Right, we'll be right back. The very

331
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 3: latest coming up. All right, welcome back to the Todd

332
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:52,560
Speaker 3: Stearns Radio Show. Coming up tonight, nine o'clock Eastern. President

333
00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:58,920
Speaker 3: Trump addresses the nation on Iran and also it's pretty exciting.

334
00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 3: We've got a a huge space launch coming up tonight

335
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:08,440
Speaker 3: around six o'clock Eastern. We understand, Artemis two is going

336
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 3: to be launching from the Kennedy Space Center. We're going

337
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:12,760
Speaker 3: to talk about that a little bit later on. You know,

338
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 3: we've been talking, pardon me, a lot about fraud across

339
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:21,840
Speaker 3: the nation. We've been focusing on Minneapolis and the just

340
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:28,440
Speaker 3: the millions, millions of dollars in in fraudulent spending, the grift,

341
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:32,760
Speaker 3: the waste, the abuse. But it's not just Minneapolis. As

342
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 3: a matter of fact, earlier today in the state of Tennessee,

343
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:42,120
Speaker 3: they released a partial audit of the state's largest school

344
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:46,400
Speaker 3: district that would be in Memphis and Shelby County, and

345
00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:52,239
Speaker 3: they say it is the worst example of fraud and

346
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 3: abuse and wasteful spending they have ever ever seen. One

347
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,439
Speaker 3: of the people spearheading all of this joins us on

348
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:03,679
Speaker 3: our Patriot Mobile Newsmaker line. He has also spearheaded the

349
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,800
Speaker 3: effort that led to President Trump sitting in the National Guard.

350
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:10,520
Speaker 3: He is a senator, State Senator Brent Taylor, and he

351
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,920
Speaker 3: joins us on our Patriot Mobile Newsmaker line today. Senator,

352
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 3: good to have you with us, and wow, what a

353
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 3: what a shock today. Tell us about some of the

354
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 3: what what you guys have discovered so far.

355
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 5: Well, it's good, great to be with you, Todd. Thank

356
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,920
Speaker 5: you for allowing me to come on and talk about

357
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 5: this this issue, because you're right, this is I believe,

358
00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 5: on the scale of the Minnesota type fraud and what

359
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 5: this audit and this is a forensic artist, so this

360
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 5: is different than just a run of the newle financial audit.

361
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,640
Speaker 5: They're they're doing a deep dive. They've uncovered a lot

362
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 5: of things. Just to give you a good example, this

363
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:58,200
Speaker 5: shows that that the Memphis Ulbican School District, they bought

364
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:02,360
Speaker 5: a building for six million dollars and spent thirty three

365
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 5: million dollars renovating it, and then they sold the building

366
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 5: for five million dollars or a million dollars less than

367
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,159
Speaker 5: they paid for it. And then they sold it to

368
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:17,120
Speaker 5: a group called New Day Tennessee I believe is the name,

369
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:20,919
Speaker 5: and it is headed by a former school board member.

370
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,800
Speaker 5: And the building they bought the building with they were

371
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:29,160
Speaker 5: the only bidd and so that's an example. It also

372
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 5: gets into them, Oh.

373
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:35,080
Speaker 3: I think we lost the senator there. Sorry about that, folks,

374
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 3: but it is shocking, shocking the amount of fraud. And

375
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,080
Speaker 3: get this, the worst part about all of this is

376
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 3: not the entire school board made up of Democrats, not

377
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 3: a single Republican on the school board at all. You

378
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:54,760
Speaker 3: also have this little nugget that seventy percent, seventy percent

379
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,959
Speaker 3: of the children and Memphis schools cannot read at at

380
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 3: grade level. They simply cannot read at grade level. It's unacceptable.

381
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,119
Speaker 3: And by the way, when you talk about what is

382
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:10,199
Speaker 3: broken in many of our major American cities, that's a

383
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 3: common denominator, every single one of them. Take a look

384
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 3: at the top two issues, crime and education, and every

385
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:20,160
Speaker 3: single major American city that is controlled by Democrats. This

386
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,160
Speaker 3: is what we get. I think we've got the senator

387
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 3: back with us. Senator, this is just shockings. He're telling

388
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:29,560
Speaker 3: me that they bought this building it was worth what

389
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 3: so what thirty sei million dollars and then they sold

390
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:36,240
Speaker 3: it to a nonprofit run by a former school board

391
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 3: member for what pennies on the dollar?

392
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 5: That's right, the building. They bought it for five million,

393
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,880
Speaker 5: I'm sorry, bought it for six million, made thirty three

394
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 5: million dollars in improvements, and then sold it for five

395
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 5: million dollars. And another example is the operations. There are

396
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 5: no internal controls. They basically have a computer program or

397
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 5: computer system that they manage all their contracts, and as

398
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:04,560
Speaker 5: people came and went from the school district, they never

399
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:10,320
Speaker 5: removed them from access to the computer. So technically a

400
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:14,120
Speaker 5: former employee could have set up a fake company, sent

401
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:18,640
Speaker 5: in a contract, then sent in invoices and paid the invoice,

402
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 5: all from outside the district. And we don't know that

403
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 5: that happened. But there are a lot of shady things

404
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 5: going on with this school district. And the thing that

405
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:31,400
Speaker 5: this audit revealed is that the memphiship became school district.

406
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:34,560
Speaker 5: There is organized as a five dollars bin at Walmart,

407
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 5: and we have to get control of it.

408
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:40,200
Speaker 3: Oh, that's not very well organized, a senator. No, I've

409
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 3: seen those bins, you know. I think it's just shocking

410
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 3: for a lot of people to realize that there has

411
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,800
Speaker 3: been an, i think, an intentional dumbing down of our

412
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:54,000
Speaker 3: society through the education system. And when you've got a

413
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:56,639
Speaker 3: situation where seventy percent of the kids are not reading

414
00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:58,920
Speaker 3: at grade level, what do you make of that?

415
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 5: But that's what's that's the reason we're doing this. I mean,

416
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 5: Memphis has had a lot of things going wrong for

417
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:10,159
Speaker 5: a long time, and crime was ramped at our education system,

418
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,680
Speaker 5: only a quarter of the kids that graduated or reading

419
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 5: at proficiency. And it took President Trump. And by the way,

420
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 5: you paid a huge role in getting the President to

421
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:25,720
Speaker 5: send the Memphis State Task Force to Memphis. It was

422
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,879
Speaker 5: from a radio interview that you had a conversation with

423
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:32,199
Speaker 5: the President first planted that seed in his mind, and

424
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:35,199
Speaker 5: it was Senator Marshall Blackburn who ran with it and

425
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 5: ultimately got the President send the Memphis Say Task Force

426
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 5: to Memphis, and they have cut crime in half. The

427
00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:43,639
Speaker 5: other thing that's been holding Memphis back has been our

428
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:46,119
Speaker 5: education system. And what we're going to do at the

429
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:50,120
Speaker 5: state level is really a Memphis Education Task Force where

430
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:52,399
Speaker 5: we're going to take over the school district. We're going

431
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 5: to put in people who know how to manage large

432
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,400
Speaker 5: organizations to get this thing turned around. And if we

433
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:02,840
Speaker 5: saw crime and education, Memphis could be the next Southern

434
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:08,199
Speaker 5: It's city. Much like Dallas, Atlanta, Charlotte, and Nashville. Memphis

435
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 5: could be that next city.

436
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:11,720
Speaker 3: You know, it's interesting. We have a lot of listeners

437
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:14,960
Speaker 3: in Houston, Texas, and my understanding is the same thing

438
00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:18,919
Speaker 3: happened there where there was a takeover of the public

439
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 3: school system.

440
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 5: There, and we're actually using the Houston model as the

441
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:29,120
Speaker 5: Houston Independent School District. We're using their model here in Memphis,

442
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:33,640
Speaker 5: and we have the superintendent there and Houston has been

443
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:37,680
Speaker 5: to Nashville and met with lawmakers. We are borrowing all

444
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:41,240
Speaker 5: the things that they did in Houston. The one thing

445
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 5: that the Houston district said that they wish they had

446
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,959
Speaker 5: done differently is what we're doing. They should have started

447
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,399
Speaker 5: with a forensic audit of the school district, and they

448
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,159
Speaker 5: think it would have helped avoid a lot of the

449
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 5: lawsuits that resulted in that takeover. But they had done

450
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 5: a phenomenal job, and we helped to replicate that in Monphis.

451
00:26:58,320 --> 00:26:59,920
Speaker 3: Well, well, I know, I'd love to hear from some

452
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,920
Speaker 3: of our Houston listeners to know how that's worked out,

453
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 3: you know, because again, what we've seen happen in the

454
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:08,600
Speaker 3: Memphis area. You've had a lot of moms and dads

455
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:12,280
Speaker 3: and many of them have been voting Democrat, and all

456
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,919
Speaker 3: of a sudden, they're waking up and they're realizing that

457
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:18,440
Speaker 3: the Democrat Party has failed them, and the people they

458
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,119
Speaker 3: put on that school board have failed them as well.

459
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:25,879
Speaker 5: They have failed them miserably, and matter of fact, the

460
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 5: clown cartel that is in charge of the Metishovychanic schools system.

461
00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:35,159
Speaker 5: If they had led the Israelites out of Egypt instead

462
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 5: of Moses, they would have ended up in a cornfield

463
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:39,200
Speaker 5: in Indiana somewhere.

464
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 3: Wow. That's it's it's insane to think about, Senator. But again,

465
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 3: this is where we are, and you know it's not right,

466
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,639
Speaker 3: and we've got we've got to make sure these kids

467
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,919
Speaker 3: are learning and that the money is going where it's

468
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 3: supposed to be going. Now, I understand you. It's only

469
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 3: what twenty five percent of the audit is has has

470
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:03,360
Speaker 3: been completed. So the level of how much I mean

471
00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:05,440
Speaker 3: dollar have you guys been able to put a dollar

472
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:07,640
Speaker 3: amount so far just on that twenty five percent.

473
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 5: Yes, So they have identified one point one million dollars

474
00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 5: that the auditors deem is waste and abuse. There's an

475
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:22,359
Speaker 5: additional one point seven million dollars that's separate from the

476
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 5: one point one that is contracts that they have entered

477
00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 5: into that were outside board policy. And I mean there

478
00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:34,800
Speaker 5: are a slew of ninety nine thousand dollars contracts, which

479
00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,520
Speaker 5: you know there's a reason there ninety nine thousand dollars

480
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 5: they're trying to escape having to go out to bid,

481
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 5: and so they're only twenty five percent of the way through.

482
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 5: There is a lot of waste and abuse in this

483
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 5: matter of fact. I had dinner last night with our friend,

484
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 5: Congressman Tim Burchett of Tennessee, who is now the chairman

485
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:57,720
Speaker 5: of the do Doze Commission Committee in Congress, and I

486
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,040
Speaker 5: plan on sending him a copy of this audit, and

487
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 5: it's complete, because the Doose Committee needs to know what

488
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 5: federal dollars have been wasted by this group of NF

489
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,400
Speaker 5: clown cartail to shrun the school system here.

490
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:14,680
Speaker 3: Wow, all right, Senator, one final comment here. I know

491
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 3: you've been so tough on crime. We had the no

492
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 3: Kings protest over the weekend. Now we understand that the

493
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:25,160
Speaker 3: Memphis Police Department has placed a number of officers on leave

494
00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 3: because they simply enforced the law. You had a mob

495
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:32,960
Speaker 3: that they were blocking roadways, which is illegal. Forty five

496
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 3: minutes the officers told them, you've got to move, and

497
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 3: they didn't move, and so finally they moved them for them.

498
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 3: And it looks as though City Hall not exactly standing

499
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,760
Speaker 3: alongside the police officers here.

500
00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 5: They're not. And I sent a letter to the Memphis

501
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 5: mayor yesterday which popped a phone call from him, and

502
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:58,479
Speaker 5: he indicated that that they are on paid leave and

503
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,840
Speaker 5: that they will do the investigation. But I, you know,

504
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,560
Speaker 5: shared with the mayor. I said, look, everything that's going

505
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:08,640
Speaker 5: on with crime, we finally have things turned around and

506
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 5: hitded it in the right direction. And the police and

507
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 5: law enforcement have done that, and we have to stand

508
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:19,080
Speaker 5: behind our law enforcement. And you cannot allow this group

509
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 5: of weathered, purple haired hippies waiving their signs no kings

510
00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:29,560
Speaker 5: and blocking roadways and preventing people from getting down the road.

511
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:34,240
Speaker 5: Look that everyone has the First Amendment right to protest

512
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,520
Speaker 5: and freedom of expression, but it does not give you

513
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:40,400
Speaker 5: the right to break the law in doing that. And

514
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:45,720
Speaker 5: so that's the police acted appropriately and they need to

515
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 5: be put back on the street. And more important, we

516
00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 5: have to stand behind our law enforcement because we have

517
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 5: a recruitment problem in Memphis, and that does nothing to

518
00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 5: help with recruitment. When they think the political leadership won't

519
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 5: be behind them when they have to make tough decisions.

520
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:02,280
Speaker 3: Well, all right, we're gonna leave it there. Wow, what

521
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:06,720
Speaker 3: an amazing day and really a breathtaking day for the city.

522
00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:10,920
Speaker 3: Of Memphis as we now understand, just we're getting a

523
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 3: glimpse of what because again, just twenty five percent when

524
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:15,680
Speaker 3: it's all said and done, I mean you could be

525
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:19,640
Speaker 3: looking at millions and millions more right, that's.

526
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,640
Speaker 5: Correct, and you know we've reduced crime. We're now focused

527
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 5: on education, and these are the two things we have

528
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,760
Speaker 5: to do to make Memphis matter. All right?

529
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 3: State Senator Brent Taylor from Nashville at the State Capitol. Senator,

530
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:35,400
Speaker 3: thank you and folks. Again, it's a great example. Memphis

531
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 3: is a great example here. Everybody thought Memphis was a

532
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 3: lost cause. Donald Trump sent in the National Guard, created

533
00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:45,080
Speaker 3: the Memphis Save Task Force. In under six months, crime

534
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 3: down forty three percent. And now with the education situation,

535
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:53,480
Speaker 3: your tax dollars were being squandered and abused in Memphis,

536
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:56,880
Speaker 3: and the Republicans are all over this and they're going

537
00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,680
Speaker 3: to get it fixed. And if Memphis can, if we

538
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 3: can turnaround Memphis, this is a blueprint for every other

539
00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,320
Speaker 3: major American city controlled by the Democrats. I mean, it

540
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 3: really is that simple, all right. Nine oh one two

541
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six our number, that's nine

542
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 3: oh one two six zero five nine two six coming

543
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:16,840
Speaker 3: up I've got a few things to say about this

544
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 3: Christie Nomes story that broke yesterday. It's a pretty wild folks,

545
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 3: just pretty wild. But it should not be surprising to anybody,

546
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 3: and I'll explain why coming up next. All right, So, look,

547
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:41,360
Speaker 3: I know everybody is feigning surprise here that Christy Holmes's

548
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:48,560
Speaker 3: husband was was a cross dresser who you know, preferred

549
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 3: big bosomed woman women. I mean, that's that's that was

550
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 3: the worst kept secret in Washington, d C. And President

551
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:58,840
Speaker 3: I mean, look, the White House knew about it. My

552
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 3: biggest concern about all of that is that this posed

553
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:05,959
Speaker 3: a significant national security risk. And the reason why is

554
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 3: that Christinome could have been blackmailed over this, or anybody

555
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:13,000
Speaker 3: else in you know, connected could have been blackmailed. Her

556
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 3: husband could have been blackmailed. We're dealing with very high

557
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 3: profile positions here, and I know it's funny. I'm getting

558
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 3: a lot of blowback from you guys on social media saying, tod,

559
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:26,800
Speaker 3: this is nobody's business that there's nothing wrong with There's

560
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:31,960
Speaker 3: nothing illegal with you know, wearing big bosomed you know, appendages,

561
00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 3: there's nothing wrong with men wearing pink hot pants. It's

562
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,960
Speaker 3: their business and I get it. I understand why people

563
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:45,200
Speaker 3: are saying that, but the reality of it, it's kind

564
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 3: of weird. Man, It's really kind of weird. And I

565
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 3: don't know many people in my circle of friends that

566
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 3: you know, run around on social media and on fetish

567
00:33:55,640 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 3: websites displaying big bosoms. Go to the phone line here

568
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,480
Speaker 3: nine oh one two six zero five nine two six,

569
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 3: Mark from the Villages, America's friendliest hometown. Hey, Mark, what's

570
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:08,960
Speaker 3: your take on all of that?

571
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:11,960
Speaker 9: Hey, cod, You're not going to believe who I'm standing

572
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:16,200
Speaker 9: next to you right now. I have all ears Christine

573
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:17,480

Speaker 3: Wait what, Oh he's at the.

575
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,520
Speaker 9: I thought great, probably told you because you brought her name.

576
00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:29,600
Speaker 3: Of She told Oh no, no, no, did not did

577
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,960
Speaker 3: not know that? Very very clever, very well. Hey, you know, Mark,

578
00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:36,799
Speaker 3: is interesting. It seems as though the Republican Party at

579
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 3: large is just kind of like, what's the big deal.

580
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:41,879
Speaker 3: It's their private life, and you know, if the if

581
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,720
Speaker 3: the guy wants to, you know, dress up like a woman,

582
00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 3: that's his business.

583
00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 9: Yeah, but it was a security risk.

584
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:49,399
Speaker 5: Click.

585
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:52,279
Speaker 9: You said off the subject a second. What are you're

586
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:54,000
Speaker 9: not talking much about March madness?

587
00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:58,759
Speaker 3: No, I'm not And there's a reason for that, and

588
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:00,840
Speaker 3: you know the reason why. And you are about to

589
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:02,239
Speaker 3: be banned from this program.

590
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:05,759
Speaker 9: I told you, I told you to get on the

591
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 9: Yukon red wagon, but you just didn't listen. But boy,

592
00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:09,239
Speaker 9: I'll tell you what.

593
00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:10,040
Speaker 10: See.

594
00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:13,719
Speaker 9: I'm close to Yukon because Rebecca Lobo, who's the commentator

595
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,239
Speaker 9: for ESPN, her mom and daddy. I know them well,

596
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 9: and so I've always been in a Yukon stand because

597
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:23,239
Speaker 9: of that, and it's just incredible. I think they're on

598
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,520
Speaker 9: a good mission now. And I'm looking forward to Friday

599
00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:28,319
Speaker 9: and Saturday because the girls are in the final four

600
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 9: and the guys and usually when they get to this point,

601
00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:34,480
Speaker 9: they usually win. And the last thing I wanted to

602
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 9: tell you is that be Easter. I hope you have

603
00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:39,080
Speaker 9: a blessed East through you and your family and your staff.

604
00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:43,359
Speaker 3: Well, Mark, that's very kind of you, and likewise, thank you.

605
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:46,880
Speaker 3: And yes, of course we've got Good Friday coming up.

606
00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:49,160
Speaker 3: I feel like I'm a day ahead all week for

607
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,680
Speaker 3: some reason. But we have good Friday coming up, and

608
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:55,040
Speaker 3: of course Easter Sunday and a lot of churches around

609
00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:57,960
Speaker 3: the nation are going to be filled to overflowing. It

610
00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:00,560
Speaker 3: is really the most important time of the year for

611
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:05,920
Speaker 3: Christians as we remember the sacrifice made and the prophecy fulfilled.

612
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:09,359
Speaker 3: So Mark God, bless you, and thank you for calling in,

613
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,960
Speaker 3: and certainly wish all of you great folks. They're a

614
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:18,279
Speaker 3: very very happy Easter. So but yeah, so it's it

615
00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:20,920
Speaker 3: was really interesting. I was going through a lot of

616
00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:23,880
Speaker 3: the messages last night, and people are just really upset.

617
00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:27,040
Speaker 3: They're they're saying that we have no business talking about christ.

618
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:32,520
Speaker 3: You know that we have no business talking about their

619
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:35,319
Speaker 3: their personal life. But the reality is, when you're the

620
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:38,879
Speaker 3: secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, that is a

621
00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:46,520
Speaker 3: that is a very very important question. Gilbert writes in

622
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:49,400
Speaker 3: tod How are you even asking that question? How do

623
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:52,359
Speaker 3: you miss it in a background check? Well, I think

624
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:55,239
Speaker 3: it's a very clear to me the FBI was not

625
00:36:55,280 --> 00:37:00,479
Speaker 3: doing what they were supposed to be doing. Derek wighing in, well,

626
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:06,000
Speaker 3: he had a nice rank though, huh. Nancy says, as

627
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:09,040
Speaker 3: someone else pointed out, there are cross dressers in Congress.

628
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,920
Speaker 3: So as Hillary Clinton would say, what difference does it make?

629
00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:13,440
Speaker 10: You know?

630
00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:18,240
Speaker 3: Here's the problem. Here's the problem. The Republicans have lost

631
00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:22,560
Speaker 3: their moral center, right, and the Republicans are in grave

632
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 3: danger of becoming just like the Democrats. So it's wrong

633
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 3: if their people do it, but it's okay if our

634
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:31,440
Speaker 3: people do it. That's not if you're going to go after.

635
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,279
Speaker 3: If you're going to go after the Democrats or something,

636
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:39,319
Speaker 3: you got to go after the Republicans are there. Well, yeah,

637
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:41,960
Speaker 3: you got the Democrat the dude from Delaware, I guess

638
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:45,520
Speaker 3: he would be, but he's a transgender dude, so that

639
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 3: takes it up a notch. So anyway, the ball Shanklind Symbias,

640
00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:54,920
Speaker 3: I can't read this on the air, Shankland, she's a loop.

641
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:58,120
Speaker 3: All right, Our two of the big show coming up,

642
00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:01,600
Speaker 3: Liz Pete, Congressman John Rowe, and your calls. We'll be

643
00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:02,360
Speaker 3: right back.

644
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:20,480
Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's

645
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 1: common sense conservative commentary from Todd stars Amaritan.

646
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:36,120
Speaker 3: All Right, Hello, everybody, Welcome to the Todd Stearns Radio Show,

647
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:41,880
Speaker 3: Hour two and tonight. Any space fans in the crowd

648
00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 3: very excited about the launch of Artemis two. This is

649
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:49,800
Speaker 3: going to be the first time in more than fifty

650
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:56,080
Speaker 3: years that humans have traveled beyond low Earth orbit, and

651
00:38:56,160 --> 00:39:01,120
Speaker 3: they're going to loop around the Moon. They're gonna get

652
00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:03,839
Speaker 3: to see the far side of the Moon. Maybe we'll

653
00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:06,799
Speaker 3: finally understand where all the alien ships are located. I'm

654
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:10,400
Speaker 3: just kidding. I'm just kidding. Anyway, all of this is

655
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:13,840
Speaker 3: happening a later time at the Kennedy Space Center, and

656
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:17,919
Speaker 3: we've got four astronauts on board. It's going they're gonna

657
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:20,880
Speaker 3: be up there for about ten days. So this is

658
00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:24,400
Speaker 3: pretty darn exciting and we'll see how all of that

659
00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:28,360
Speaker 3: plays out. So remember I don't Dylan, this may have

660
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,799
Speaker 3: been before your time. Any of you old timers out

661
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:35,040
Speaker 3: there remember the Stomp Rocket. Any of you guys have

662
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:38,200
Speaker 3: the Stomp rocket when you were a kid. So as

663
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 3: a way to celebrate Artemis two, the family owned brand

664
00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 3: called Stomp Rocket. So it's a mom and pop business.

665
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 3: They have these kid powered rockets and toys and they're

666
00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 3: doing a version just for Artemis two, which is pretty awesome.

667
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:58,320
Speaker 3: So these are rocket launching toys where you have the

668
00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:00,640
Speaker 3: rocket and you have this thing and you on it

669
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:04,840
Speaker 3: and the harder you stomp, the higher up your rocket goes.

670
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:08,080
Speaker 3: So and they've got them at Walmart and some of

671
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,560
Speaker 3: the other toy stores around time, I think that's pretty cool,

672
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:17,360
Speaker 3: not too bad. You know, they've stomped. The stomp rockets

673
00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:21,279
Speaker 3: have been around for what more than thirty years and

674
00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:24,799
Speaker 3: they're based in Minden, Nevada. I'm sure some of our

675
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:28,200
Speaker 3: Nevada listeners know where Menden is and made by the

676
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:34,080
Speaker 3: DNL company, so locally owned, family run company there. So

677
00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:36,799
Speaker 3: how about that stamp rocket, so you do want you know,

678
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,360
Speaker 3: it's interesting back in the day, even when I remember

679
00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:41,439
Speaker 3: when if you go all the way back to when

680
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:44,960
Speaker 3: the space shuttles were launched, and that's all anybody could

681
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:47,920
Speaker 3: talk about. Everybody had the big NASA logo. It was

682
00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:52,920
Speaker 3: plastered on everything, your school books, your cars. Everybody was

683
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:56,600
Speaker 3: all about you know, space and astronauts. And now it

684
00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:59,320
Speaker 3: just I guess after a while it became ho hum.

685
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:02,400
Speaker 3: And even now I'm not seeing a lot of excitement

686
00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:05,879
Speaker 3: or energy about the launch today. But I'm I'm really

687
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:09,920
Speaker 3: fascinated by this and it will be our first voyage

688
00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 3: towards the Moon in over fifty years. That's pretty awesome.

689
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:18,839
Speaker 3: By the way, the rocket ship is as tall as

690
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 3: the Statue of Liberty. That is one big rocket. So

691
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:27,160
Speaker 3: nine oh one two six to zero five nine two

692
00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:30,120
Speaker 3: six is our telephone number. That's nine oh one two

693
00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:33,320
Speaker 3: six zero five nine two six. The Supreme Court hearing

694
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:40,239
Speaker 3: arguments today over birthright citizenship. So the controversy comes from

695
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 3: the fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution that says that anybody

696
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:51,640
Speaker 3: born on American soil is automatically a citizen, regardless of

697
00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:58,279
Speaker 3: their parents' immigration status. Now there are a few exceptions

698
00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:02,520
Speaker 3: to that, for example, children of foreign born diplomats. So

699
00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:07,520
Speaker 3: President Trump is his argument is that the policy creates

700
00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:12,880
Speaker 3: incentives for illegal immigration and what they call birth tourism,

701
00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:17,400
Speaker 3: and that children of illegal aliens should not automatically receive

702
00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:21,680
Speaker 3: US citizenship. And I'm curious to hear your thoughts on that.

703
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:24,680
Speaker 3: So the Supreme Court talking about it today. Here is

704
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:28,000
Speaker 3: Justice sam Alito, one of the good guys, and he

705
00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:31,520
Speaker 3: says that just because illegal aliens were not a problem

706
00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:34,319
Speaker 3: at the time of the fourteenth Amendment does not mean

707
00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:36,240
Speaker 3: that this should not be addressed today.

708
00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 11: Take a listenations that they had in mind when they

709
00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:45,480
Speaker 11: adopted the general rule, or do we say they adopted

710
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:48,600
Speaker 11: a general rule, They meant for that to apply to

711
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:53,440
Speaker 11: later applications that might come up. Justice Scalia had an

712
00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:58,800
Speaker 11: example that dealt with this situation. He imagined an old

713
00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:03,440
Speaker 11: theft statute that was it acted well before anybody conceived

714
00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 11: of a microwave oven. And then afterwards someone is charged

715
00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:10,080
Speaker 11: with the crime of stealing a microwave oven, and this

716
00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:13,360
Speaker 11: fellow says, well, I can't be convicted under this because

717
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:17,040
Speaker 11: the microwave oven didn't exist at that time, and he

718
00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:20,600
Speaker 11: dismissed that. There's a general rule there, and you'll apply

719
00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:24,160
Speaker 11: it to future applications. And what we're dealing with here

720
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:27,919
Speaker 11: is something that was basically unknown at the time when

721
00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:31,520
Speaker 11: the fourteenth Amendment was adopted, which is illegal immigration. So

722
00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:33,520
Speaker 11: how did we deal with that situation when we have

723
00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:34,399
Speaker 11: a general rule?

724
00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 12: Yeah, I strongly agree with the way that you framed it.

725
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,040
Speaker 12: That there is a general principle, that's a broad principle

726
00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:41,880
Speaker 12: that's adopted the phrase under the jurisdiction thereof. And we

727
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:45,000
Speaker 12: submit that our theory of allegiance and domicile based allegiance

728
00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:47,960
Speaker 12: what explains those specific exceptions that everybody was aware of,

729
00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:51,080
Speaker 12: but it is broad enough to sweep in future situations.

730
00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:53,560
Speaker 12: And as you point out, illegal immigration did not exist then.

731
00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:56,600
Speaker 12: Now the problem of temporary visitors did exist, and it's

732
00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:58,759
Speaker 12: very interesting that as you look at pages twenty six

733
00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:03,160
Speaker 12: and twenty eight of our commentators going from you know.

734
00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:05,120
Speaker 2: Eighteen eighty one until nineteen twenty.

735
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:07,799
Speaker 12: Two are uniformly saying that children of temporary visitors are

736
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:10,800
Speaker 12: not included. Now that logic, we say, it's a naturally

737
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:12,720
Speaker 12: extens it's really an off force uri case.

738
00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:14,600
Speaker 2: If you are someone who enters illegally.

739
00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:17,759
Speaker 12: By the eighteen eighties, there are restrictions on immigration if

740
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:20,359
Speaker 12: you've entered illegally. It's kind of, you know, a well

741
00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:22,279
Speaker 12: established principle of law, going back to the Code of

742
00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:25,439
Speaker 12: Justinian that says you're not allowed to be there, you cannot.

743
00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:27,400
Speaker 10: You don't have the legal capacity to create domicile.

744
00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:31,040
Speaker 3: Then all right there, Solicitor General is that sounds like

745
00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:35,000
Speaker 3: he's got a little chess cold. So anyway, this is

746
00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:38,200
Speaker 3: this is going to ultimately be the designed by the

747
00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:40,640
Speaker 3: Supreme Court. And the issue is whether or not the

748
00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:46,440
Speaker 3: president could end outright end birthright citizenship or limit birthright

749
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:52,440
Speaker 3: citizenship via the executive order. And again the president and

750
00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:55,880
Speaker 3: the point of this is the President says illegal aliens

751
00:44:55,960 --> 00:45:00,000
Speaker 3: are abusing this, they're coming to America to have their baby.

752
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:04,080
Speaker 3: He's on American soil. They have absolutely no allegiance to America.

753
00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:07,600
Speaker 3: They just want all of our welfare. So I'm curious

754
00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:10,799
Speaker 3: to hear your thoughts on this. Do you believe that

755
00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:15,360
Speaker 3: we should have limitations on birthright citizenship? Nine oh one

756
00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:18,400
Speaker 3: two six zero five nine two six is our number.

757
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:22,760
Speaker 3: That's nine oh one two six zero five nine two six.

758
00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:26,120
Speaker 3: I want to go back to Alex Jones for just

759
00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:28,560
Speaker 3: a moment, and Alex Jones has now turned on the

760
00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:33,520
Speaker 3: president and he is Alex Jones is saying that he's

761
00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:37,520
Speaker 3: talking to people inside the administration that Trump is gone,

762
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:42,400
Speaker 3: He's really having some health problems. He said that Pete

763
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:46,800
Speaker 3: Hegseth and Caroline Leavitt are freaked out, but they're being loyal.

764
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:49,760
Speaker 3: I don't know where he's getting any of this intel,

765
00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:54,560
Speaker 3: but he said that that Trump is aging quickly and

766
00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:58,360
Speaker 3: is no longer up for the job. And he says

767
00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:02,919
Speaker 3: that the Trump we all knew and loved is well

768
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:08,319
Speaker 3: no longer there do we have. Let's take a listen

769
00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:09,040
Speaker 3: to that audio.

770
00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:11,600
Speaker 10: When your ankles swell up three times the size and

771
00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:14,000
Speaker 10: they were before, that means heart failure. And he does

772
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:21,160
Speaker 10: look sick, and he does babble and you don't sound

773
00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:26,600
Speaker 10: like the brain's not doing too hot. And so we

774
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:29,759
Speaker 10: just cut bait on Trump, and we just mobilize against

775
00:46:29,800 --> 00:46:33,680
Speaker 10: the Democrats, and we mobilize against neocons. We primary them,

776
00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:35,879
Speaker 10: and we just fight even harder because look at how

777
00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:39,520
Speaker 10: we've turned the tide. Look at all the good we've done.

778
00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:43,200
Speaker 10: There's a fourth turning. Populist nationalist conservatives are winning everywhere,

779
00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:46,440
Speaker 10: there's a Christian reawakening. And Trump is just a minor

780
00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:48,759
Speaker 10: figure in all of that now. And we have to

781
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:51,799
Speaker 10: be appreciative of the old Trump that went through so

782
00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:54,640
Speaker 10: much and got so much done. And that's what Trump

783
00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:58,040
Speaker 10: we remember, and we're just sad because that happens. We

784
00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:00,000
Speaker 10: need to be sad about Trump. This is not fun,

785
00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:05,879
Speaker 10: this is not good. But he's gone and that's it.

786
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:10,000
Speaker 10: And all the people rallied around him. You can see

787
00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:13,719
Speaker 10: hegsas freaked out. You see the Presidenttory's freaked out. They're

788
00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:17,000
Speaker 10: being loyal. They think it's a lesser of two evils.

789
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:21,200
Speaker 10: And I okay, but I just Trump needs an intervention.

790
00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:24,200
Speaker 10: He's to take some time off. We need to pray

791
00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:27,040
Speaker 10: for Trump, the Holy Spirit, touch his heart and loose

792
00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:29,799
Speaker 10: him for whatever evil control he's under. I'm serious, and

793
00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:31,759
Speaker 10: I think that's the answer. We need to pray for

794
00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:39,920
Speaker 10: President Trump. We need to we need to pray for

795
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:42,319
Speaker 10: other people to be awakened. We need to pray for

796
00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:43,120
Speaker 10: justice and peace.

797
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:47,000
Speaker 3: All right. So I'm just curious, do you believe, as

798
00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:50,600
Speaker 3: Alex Jones just said, that President Trump is what possessed

799
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:54,200
Speaker 3: perhaps by some sort of an evil spirit. Do you

800
00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:57,160
Speaker 3: believe that President Trump is not doing well, that his

801
00:47:57,239 --> 00:48:00,200
Speaker 3: health has taken a turn. I'm I'm just not seeing that, yeah,

802
00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:04,359
Speaker 3: and the conversations I've had with him. As a matter

803
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:06,440
Speaker 3: of fact, I was with the President a couple of

804
00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:08,680
Speaker 3: weeks ago when he was in Memphis and got to

805
00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:13,000
Speaker 3: spend a very very brief time. But he he put

806
00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:16,840
Speaker 3: out that hand and had a good, firm handshake. The

807
00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:20,120
Speaker 3: President was in good spirits and he was cognizant to

808
00:48:20,440 --> 00:48:23,239
Speaker 3: He seemed to be just fine. To me. I'm not

809
00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:26,520
Speaker 3: seeing the kind of person that Alex Jones is describing here.

810
00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:30,560
Speaker 3: So are you are you seeing what Alex Jones is seeing?

811
00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:32,279
Speaker 3: And if not, what do you think Jones is up

812
00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:34,480
Speaker 3: to here? Why do you think that he is making

813
00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:38,080
Speaker 3: this turn against the President and it's I mean, you can't.

814
00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:40,880
Speaker 3: The guy did not mince any words by what he

815
00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:43,719
Speaker 3: just said. There nine oh one two six zero five

816
00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:47,160
Speaker 3: nine two six. That's nine oh one two six zero

817
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:51,520
Speaker 3: five to nine two six. I mean the president's taking

818
00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:55,799
Speaker 3: questions he you know, he doesn't. He doesn't ask for

819
00:48:55,880 --> 00:49:00,400
Speaker 3: the questions in advance from the press corps whenever they're around. Yesterday,

820
00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:03,000
Speaker 3: the President signing executive orders, and he was doing Q

821
00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:06,040
Speaker 3: and A off the cuff with reporters. He was giving

822
00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:09,080
Speaker 3: and taking, and I mean he seemed pretty cognizant to me.

823
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:15,000
Speaker 3: But it does appear that the populist wing of the

824
00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:18,520
Speaker 3: Republican Party is trying to make a break now, and

825
00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:21,160
Speaker 3: maybe they're trying to set themselves up for twenty twenty

826
00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:25,640
Speaker 3: eight and putting out a candidate, whether that be JD.

827
00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:29,240
Speaker 3: Vans or whoever. I think the Republican nominee in twenty

828
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:31,960
Speaker 3: twenty eight is going to be Marco Rubio. But we'll

829
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:34,680
Speaker 3: talk about that another day. Let's go to Charles in

830
00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:39,600
Speaker 3: North Carolina. Charles, what's on your mind today? Hey?

831
00:49:39,640 --> 00:49:43,120
Speaker 13: After day Ton so Ton, I listened to the entire

832
00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:45,680
Speaker 13: two hours of the of what was going on with

833
00:49:45,760 --> 00:49:49,279
Speaker 13: the Supreme Court today and I heard both sides, and

834
00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:52,920
Speaker 13: I'm not a lawyer, but to me, Tyd, it just

835
00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:57,080
Speaker 13: seemed like they were really overthinking this. To me, it's

836
00:49:57,120 --> 00:50:01,520
Speaker 13: a very simple issue. You break it making this country illegally,

837
00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:06,040
Speaker 13: you're subject to the jurisdiction of the country from which

838
00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:12,719
Speaker 13: she came, as are your children. And also the fourteenth Amendment,

839
00:50:12,800 --> 00:50:16,560
Speaker 13: in my opinion, was very specific. It was ratified right

840
00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:21,160
Speaker 13: after the Civil War, and it dealt with slaves and

841
00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:25,319
Speaker 13: children of slaves to make them citizens because of the

842
00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:29,319
Speaker 13: dread Scott decision going back to the eighteen fifties, and

843
00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:35,239
Speaker 13: also the three fist falls of the Constitution. But I

844
00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:37,920
Speaker 13: just to me, it just sounded like they were losing

845
00:50:38,040 --> 00:50:40,279
Speaker 13: sight of that. And I didn't know if he had

846
00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:42,920
Speaker 13: a chance to listen to it. But did she get

847
00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:45,560
Speaker 13: a sense of where you think that justices are on this?

848
00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:51,160
Speaker 3: Well, I know where the rock solid conservatives are. I

849
00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:55,919
Speaker 3: got the impression from Amy Cony Barrett that she may

850
00:50:56,000 --> 00:51:00,879
Speaker 3: be waffling on this, so I didn't get good read there.

851
00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:05,000
Speaker 3: And John Roberts, it was hard to understand what sign

852
00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:07,359
Speaker 3: he was coming down on. I think the argument could

853
00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:11,200
Speaker 3: be made that he actually idle know supports the change

854
00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:13,440
Speaker 3: or cracking down, but I'm not sure what are you

855
00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:13,960
Speaker 3: getting at.

856
00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:22,160
Speaker 13: Well, so, you know, they were talking about how back

857
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:25,719
Speaker 13: during the eighteen fifties and sixties they never could have

858
00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:30,200
Speaker 13: foreseen illegal immigration like we have today, which is true.

859
00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:34,799
Speaker 13: And I would also argue, we don't know what's going

860
00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:37,600
Speaker 13: to happen fifty or one hundred years from now. I mean,

861
00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:39,920
Speaker 13: let's say that fifty years from now, we have a

862
00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:43,920
Speaker 13: spaceship that enters an atmosphere and it lands in Wyoming

863
00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:46,759
Speaker 13: or someplace, and it's got ten million people on it

864
00:51:46,800 --> 00:51:49,040
Speaker 13: and they all have children. Are they going to be

865
00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:51,080
Speaker 13: considered citizens of the United States?

866
00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:51,839
Speaker 8: Do they act?

867
00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:54,719
Speaker 13: Do they think that that's what the you know, the

868
00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:58,320
Speaker 13: little interpretation of the fourteenth Amendment is. I'm going to

869
00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:03,560
Speaker 13: argue not again, it's very specific to slaves and children

870
00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:09,600
Speaker 13: of freed slaves. So I hope the Supreme Court rules

871
00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:13,920
Speaker 13: like that. I'm not sure where this executive order is

872
00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:16,480
Speaker 13: gonna go where if that has much force, But uh,

873
00:52:16,600 --> 00:52:19,480
Speaker 13: there's just no way we can let these these babies

874
00:52:19,520 --> 00:52:22,359
Speaker 13: be considered citizens of the United States. So because it's

875
00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:24,960
Speaker 13: just gonna, in my opinion, is just gonna destroy the country.

876
00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:26,880
Speaker 3: I mean, what do you think, well, it will lead

877
00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:29,719
Speaker 3: to I mean, and we've already seen this happen. I

878
00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:31,879
Speaker 3: think it would lead to even more millions of people

879
00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:35,879
Speaker 3: crossing the border, illegals coming into this country so they

880
00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:39,560
Speaker 3: can have a baby on American soil and immediately get

881
00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:43,400
Speaker 3: all the resources of the American taxpayers. Because that's what

882
00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:46,319
Speaker 3: has been happening, you know, for years.

883
00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:51,920
Speaker 13: Yeah, and that was not the that's not the original

884
00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:54,680
Speaker 13: intent of the fourteenth Amendment. I think. I think it's

885
00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:56,680
Speaker 13: the people that offered that. If they could come back

886
00:52:56,719 --> 00:52:59,239
Speaker 13: to date and hear the arguments and see what's going

887
00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:03,080
Speaker 13: on in this, they would say, absolutely not. This is

888
00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:05,840
Speaker 13: not what we meant when we penned the fourteenth Amendment.

889
00:53:06,360 --> 00:53:09,200
Speaker 13: It was to deal with the aftermath of the Civil

890
00:53:09,239 --> 00:53:14,080
Speaker 13: War and to make citizens of slaves who, through no

891
00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:17,560
Speaker 13: fall to their own came here and they and their

892
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:21,120
Speaker 13: children are subject to the jurisdiction of the United States.

893
00:53:21,400 --> 00:53:25,360
Speaker 13: They have allegiance to the United States. These illegal aliens

894
00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:27,400
Speaker 13: have no allegiance to the United States.

895
00:53:27,440 --> 00:53:29,279
Speaker 3: And just to put this in perspective of Charles, We're

896
00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:30,680
Speaker 3: going to have to run here for a break. But

897
00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:33,760
Speaker 3: just to put this in perspective. According to the last

898
00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:36,160
Speaker 3: census data we have, which is from twenty twenty three,

899
00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:39,680
Speaker 3: there are right now twenty two point eight million foreign

900
00:53:39,760 --> 00:53:44,399
Speaker 3: born non US citizens living in the country. So let

901
00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:46,239
Speaker 3: that sink in. That's a lot of folks. Got to

902
00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:55,240
Speaker 3: take a break. We'll be right back, all right. Coming

903

914
00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:37,640
Speaker 3: getting the full social Security benefits they deserve. That's right,

915
00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:41,520

922
00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:07,279
Speaker 3: eight hundred ninety six ninety that number one more time,

923
00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:12,840
Speaker 3: eight hundred ninety six ninety. Text and data rates may apply.

924
00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:15,920
Speaker 3: All right, let's go right to our phones. Nine oh

925
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:20,920
Speaker 3: one two six zero five nine two six Andre and Memphis,

926
00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:24,239
Speaker 3: Tennessee listening to us on k Raam. Hi, Andre, what's

927
00:55:24,280 --> 00:55:24,880
Speaker 3: on your mind?

928
00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:26,840
Speaker 8: Hey Todd, how are you today?

929
00:55:26,960 --> 00:55:28,280
Speaker 3: I'm good? Thanks for asking.

930
00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:32,719
Speaker 8: Look, coming from a man that I don't class by

931
00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:35,120
Speaker 8: myself as black, I cast by myself by the content

932
00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:38,000
Speaker 8: of my character, but I am classified as black. It

933
00:55:38,120 --> 00:55:41,839
Speaker 8: is frustrating to me that black people are not outraged

934
00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:45,640
Speaker 8: about these people trying to make illegal citizens citizens when

935
00:55:45,680 --> 00:55:49,640
Speaker 8: black dad to go to getting enslaved and in order

936
00:55:49,680 --> 00:55:52,000
Speaker 8: they didn't get the right the voter citizenship, to go

937
00:55:52,080 --> 00:55:54,560
Speaker 8: through Jim Crow to get the right the voter citizenship.

938
00:55:54,840 --> 00:55:56,960
Speaker 8: And now you're basically saying that all you've got to

939
00:55:57,000 --> 00:55:59,120
Speaker 8: do now is just break into the country and we're

940
00:55:59,160 --> 00:56:03,200
Speaker 8: gonna reward you with citizenship. Anytime you start rewarding in

941
00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:06,239
Speaker 8: legal behavior, you encourage in legal behavior. And it is

942
00:56:06,360 --> 00:56:09,719
Speaker 8: frustrating to me that how black people have been hypnotized

943
00:56:09,760 --> 00:56:13,000
Speaker 8: by this Democratic Party to it. No matter what platform

944
00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:15,600
Speaker 8: they put out there, you go along with it because

945
00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:18,000
Speaker 8: they've convinced you from that. I grew up in the city,

946
00:56:18,160 --> 00:56:18,719
Speaker 8: So we will.

947
00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:19,120
Speaker 14: Andre.

948
00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:21,359
Speaker 3: Here's what I want to do. We've got to take

949
00:56:21,440 --> 00:56:22,919
Speaker 3: a quick break, but I want you to be able

950
00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:25,120
Speaker 3: to finish your thought. Can you stick around and hold

951
00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:28,160
Speaker 3: on till after the break? I will, all right, don't

952
00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:30,520

Speaker 3: watching the clock, and Dylan's already hollered at me, so

968
00:57:30,960 --> 00:57:34,960
Speaker 3: I won't do it again. We have Andre, who's listening

969
00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:38,640
Speaker 3: to us from Memphis, Tennessee. And Andre, you're you're pretty

970
00:57:38,720 --> 00:57:42,600
Speaker 3: upset about this whole birthright citizenship. Before we finish our

971
00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:45,920
Speaker 3: conversation here, I want to share some numbers. Andre, Do

972
00:57:45,960 --> 00:57:49,920
Speaker 3: you realize the number of unauthorized immigrants in the United States?

973
00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:52,880
Speaker 3: Go back to nineteen ninety that number was three point

974
00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:58,360
Speaker 3: five million. In twenty twenty three, that number was fourteen million.

975
00:57:59,080 --> 00:58:02,160
Speaker 3: And when you look at the we call them anchor babies.

976
00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:05,440
Speaker 3: These are the babies of the illegals. All right, just

977
00:58:05,680 --> 00:58:08,640
Speaker 3: in one year alone, the numbers were working with are

978
00:58:08,640 --> 00:58:10,800
Speaker 3: from twenty twenty three so they're a little bit old,

979
00:58:10,840 --> 00:58:12,400
Speaker 3: but it gives you an idea of what we're dealing

980
00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:15,680
Speaker 3: with here. We're talking about nine percent of all the

981
00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:19,200
Speaker 3: berths in America andre are coming from anchor babies, and

982
00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:22,720
Speaker 3: every single one of those anchor babies is eligible for welfare,

983
00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:27,000
Speaker 3: food stamps, whatever resources they need, the American taxpayers have

984
00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:27,840
Speaker 3: to provide for them.

985
00:58:30,360 --> 00:58:34,200
Speaker 8: That's what's frustrating me. You know, Todd, I grew up

986
00:58:34,200 --> 00:58:36,360
Speaker 8: in the sixties, so I was a part of what

987
00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:39,400
Speaker 8: they're those real peaceful protests. Well, when you got through

988
00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:42,000
Speaker 8: protests and you didn't see buildings on fire, you didn't

989
00:58:42,000 --> 00:58:45,280
Speaker 8: see police officers being attacked, you didn't see people getting murdered,

990
00:58:45,440 --> 00:58:48,120
Speaker 8: you didn't see graffiti everywhere. And you're sitting around here

991
00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:52,080
Speaker 8: in a Democratic Party hypnotized black people to well, whatever

992
00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:54,480
Speaker 8: jenda we're putting out there, who did you think when

993
00:58:54,520 --> 00:58:57,000
Speaker 8: they give away all that wefare and all that what

994
00:58:57,160 --> 00:59:00,720
Speaker 8: group you think is going to fect the most other

995
00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:04,120
Speaker 8: than black people? And it's so sad because they so

996
00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:06,760
Speaker 8: busy caught up on the color the skin. When we

997
00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:09,680
Speaker 8: gonna get to the counting of my character part, when

998
00:59:09,680 --> 00:59:11,360
Speaker 8: we're gonna get back to love in America. We've got

999
00:59:11,400 --> 00:59:14,440
Speaker 8: a school system. Does it doctrinate these children if they

1000
00:59:14,480 --> 00:59:16,840
Speaker 8: hate in America? When I got news for y'all. Once

1001
00:59:16,880 --> 00:59:19,120
Speaker 8: they get rid of us America, they don't have another

1002
00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:21,040
Speaker 8: one out there. And I don't know no place in

1003
00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:23,760
Speaker 8: them in the world that's looking to recruit Black Americans

1004
00:59:23,800 --> 00:59:25,320
Speaker 8: because they don't want your mentality.

1005
00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:29,760
Speaker 3: Well, I would push back justice a bit on that, Andre,

1006
00:59:30,040 --> 00:59:33,320
Speaker 3: because I think white people. Actually there are more white

1007
00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:35,560
Speaker 3: people just by the sheer numbers of white people in

1008
00:59:35,560 --> 00:59:40,120
Speaker 3: America on welfare than there are blacks or Hispanics. But

1009
00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:43,560
Speaker 3: to your point, every dollar that is going to an

1010
00:59:43,600 --> 00:59:46,280
Speaker 3: illegal is one less dollar going to a law abiding

1011
00:59:46,280 --> 00:59:48,600
Speaker 3: American citizen, no matter the color of their skin.

1012
00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:52,960
Speaker 8: Well you can see it in Chicago, Oh yeah, libraries

1013
00:59:52,960 --> 00:59:55,520
Speaker 8: and Commuter Center project that they had to put off

1014
00:59:55,520 --> 00:59:58,600
Speaker 8: because they had to provide resources, but the illegal immigrants

1015
00:59:58,640 --> 01:00:03,040
Speaker 8: coming in and it's so sad and for somebody who's

1016
01:00:03,080 --> 01:00:05,880
Speaker 8: classified as a black people. I want people in America

1017
01:00:05,960 --> 01:00:08,600
Speaker 8: to know all black people don't think like the majority

1018
01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:10,200
Speaker 8: of them. There some of us out here that are

1019
01:00:10,240 --> 01:00:13,160
Speaker 8: waking up and they're realizing that the Democratic Party has

1020
01:00:13,240 --> 01:00:15,560
Speaker 8: never been a friend of black people. Is not a

1021
01:00:15,560 --> 01:00:17,840
Speaker 8: friend of black people and will never be a friend

1022
01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:18,520
Speaker 8: of black people.

1023
01:00:19,480 --> 01:00:22,080
Speaker 3: What is what is it going to take to change voter?

1024
01:00:22,240 --> 01:00:24,600
Speaker 3: Because you know how it is in Memphis. I mean,

1025
01:00:24,680 --> 01:00:28,160
Speaker 3: everybody sees the problems, and yet people still vote for

1026
01:00:28,200 --> 01:00:31,600
Speaker 3: the same folks, the same political party. How do we

1027
01:00:31,760 --> 01:00:33,080
Speaker 3: how do we break that cycle?

1028
01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:38,680
Speaker 8: Well, the first thing, Republicans do a poor job of marketing.

1029
01:00:39,240 --> 01:00:42,840
Speaker 8: They need to start pointing out the Black America. These

1030
01:00:42,920 --> 01:00:45,560
Speaker 8: areas were I'll tell you example, this woman Jail Paul

1031
01:00:45,760 --> 01:00:47,720
Speaker 8: that went up there yesterday and she's talking about she

1032
01:00:47,760 --> 01:00:52,560
Speaker 8: wants to get reparation for legal everygrich and every time

1033
01:00:52,640 --> 01:00:56,040
Speaker 8: Barack Obama had a supermajority in the Congress and the

1034
01:00:56,120 --> 01:00:58,400
Speaker 8: Senate and the President said, they never brought up the

1035
01:00:58,440 --> 01:01:02,200
Speaker 8: conversation of reparation for black somebody's got exposed to black

1036
01:01:02,240 --> 01:01:05,200
Speaker 8: people that Democrats got you hat carried in front of

1037
01:01:05,200 --> 01:01:08,280
Speaker 8: a muse head to fool him and his Republicity do

1038
01:01:08,320 --> 01:01:11,080
Speaker 8: a better job of marketing to the black community.

1039
01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:14,600
Speaker 3: I do not disagree with that. I'll give you an

1040
01:01:14,600 --> 01:01:17,800
Speaker 3: example of that here in the Memphis area. You guys

1041
01:01:17,800 --> 01:01:20,480
Speaker 3: were about to elect a county mayor and you have

1042
01:01:21,040 --> 01:01:23,320
Speaker 3: a gentleman by the name of John G. Berry. He

1043
01:01:23,440 --> 01:01:25,800
Speaker 3: was a longtime Democrat, kicked out of his party on

1044
01:01:25,920 --> 01:01:28,640
Speaker 3: among other things, because of his position on pro life,

1045
01:01:28,640 --> 01:01:32,680
Speaker 3: and now he is the Republican nominee. They announced his

1046
01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:36,320
Speaker 3: campaign from a high end car dealership and I got

1047
01:01:36,360 --> 01:01:38,720
Speaker 3: no problem with that. But imagine what kind of a

1048
01:01:38,760 --> 01:01:41,120
Speaker 3: statement they could have made had they made that announcement

1049
01:01:41,160 --> 01:01:45,240
Speaker 3: in Robert Church Park, a park that was that was

1050
01:01:45,320 --> 01:01:49,160
Speaker 3: named after the black man who founded the Republican Party

1051
01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:53,640
Speaker 3: in Shelby County because Democrats were preventing blacks from from

1052
01:01:53,680 --> 01:01:56,640
Speaker 3: getting the vote. I mean, what kind of a statement

1053
01:01:56,680 --> 01:01:58,960
Speaker 3: would that? Again, going back to the marketing of it,

1054
01:01:59,240 --> 01:02:02,080
Speaker 3: because I guarank to you, most black children in Memphis

1055
01:02:02,120 --> 01:02:06,760
Speaker 3: don't realize that the first millionaires, the people who owned

1056
01:02:06,800 --> 01:02:09,800
Speaker 3: the first baseball team in Memphis, all happened to be

1057
01:02:09,920 --> 01:02:12,360
Speaker 3: black people who were also Republican.

1058
01:02:13,440 --> 01:02:16,320
Speaker 8: And don't leave out Robert Church was born a slave

1059
01:02:16,400 --> 01:02:19,000
Speaker 8: but died Apeakonaire. And it's funny you brought up John T.

1060
01:02:19,160 --> 01:02:21,680
Speaker 8: Beer because John was on my show. And when John

1061
01:02:21,760 --> 01:02:23,600
Speaker 8: came up and said that that he was on an

1062
01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:26,840
Speaker 8: abortion and field that they were pushing into Tennessee, legislature.

1063
01:02:26,840 --> 01:02:28,880
Speaker 8: I told John Did, I said, you can get ready

1064
01:02:28,880 --> 01:02:31,400
Speaker 8: to find yourself another party, because they're coming after you.

1065
01:02:31,560 --> 01:02:34,480
Speaker 3: And they did, they sure did. They kicked him right,

1066
01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:38,960
Speaker 3: I gave him right out the door. My goodness, pastor Andre.

1067
01:02:39,160 --> 01:02:41,680
Speaker 3: It's always good hearing from you, my friend, and I

1068
01:02:41,720 --> 01:02:42,280
Speaker 3: appreciate you.

1069
01:02:42,400 --> 01:02:42,520
Speaker 15: Now.

1070
01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:45,400
Speaker 3: Look, you're spot on, and it all goes back to

1071
01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:48,680
Speaker 3: putting the needs of the American people first. And if

1072
01:02:48,680 --> 01:02:50,760
Speaker 3: we can just get rid of all of this fraud

1073
01:02:50,960 --> 01:02:53,200
Speaker 3: and all of this waste and abuse in our country,

1074
01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:55,920
Speaker 3: like I think it was Stephen Miller said, we're going

1075
01:02:55,960 --> 01:02:57,960
Speaker 3: to be able to balance our budget without having to

1076
01:02:57,960 --> 01:03:00,440
Speaker 3: make any cuts. So there you go, Andre, thank you

1077
01:03:00,480 --> 01:03:04,000
Speaker 3: for that call. Great to hear from you. By the way,

1078
01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:06,680
Speaker 3: I just want you to hear me on this and

1079
01:03:06,840 --> 01:03:09,480
Speaker 3: all these numbers I'm sharing with you, they're low ball

1080
01:03:09,600 --> 01:03:14,040
Speaker 3: and probably are double, probably double. But right now, there

1081
01:03:14,120 --> 01:03:18,800
Speaker 3: are about five point three million children in American public

1082
01:03:18,840 --> 01:03:23,960
Speaker 3: schools almost well, and again that number is about eleven

1083
01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:29,600
Speaker 3: percent of the total enrollment of kids in US schools.

1084
01:03:29,640 --> 01:03:35,240
Speaker 3: All right, they don't speak a look of English. You say, well, well,

1085
01:03:35,280 --> 01:03:37,240
Speaker 3: what does that mean. Well, it means that a lot

1086
01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:40,480
Speaker 3: of public schools are having to hire EESL teachers, so

1087
01:03:40,480 --> 01:03:42,680
Speaker 3: they're having to hire teachers to teach these kids how

1088
01:03:42,720 --> 01:03:45,160
Speaker 3: to speak English. And as a result of that, that

1089
01:03:45,240 --> 01:03:48,880
Speaker 3: means that if the budgets are tight in these school districts,

1090
01:03:49,200 --> 01:03:51,960
Speaker 3: and so if let's just say, you know, you've got

1091
01:03:52,000 --> 01:03:54,360
Speaker 3: a couple of one hundred kids in your local elementary

1092
01:03:54,360 --> 01:03:57,600
Speaker 3: school and they don't speak English, that tells me they're

1093
01:03:57,640 --> 01:04:00,760
Speaker 3: going to have to They'll have to sacrifice somewhere else.

1094
01:04:00,800 --> 01:04:04,000
Speaker 3: That made me no reading teacher, no math teacher, no

1095
01:04:04,160 --> 01:04:07,320
Speaker 3: pe teacher, because they've got to use those resources to

1096
01:04:07,440 --> 01:04:10,640
Speaker 3: hire teachers to teach these kids how to speak English.

1097
01:04:11,080 --> 01:04:13,560
Speaker 3: That's what we're dealing with here. So it's not just

1098
01:04:13,600 --> 01:04:16,280
Speaker 3: a matter of you're born here that makes you an

1099
01:04:16,280 --> 01:04:20,480
Speaker 3: American citizen. That's not what this is about. This is

1100
01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:24,080
Speaker 3: about people coming here to this country illegally having a

1101
01:04:24,120 --> 01:04:27,200
Speaker 3: baby so they can take advantage of the of the

1102
01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:31,000
Speaker 3: welfare of the great taxpayers of America. That's what is

1103
01:04:31,120 --> 01:04:35,400
Speaker 3: really going on here. Nine oh one two six zero

1104
01:04:35,520 --> 01:04:37,720
Speaker 3: five nine two six is our telephone number. That's nine

1105
01:04:37,720 --> 01:04:40,880
Speaker 3: oh one two six zero five nine two six. Last night,

1106
01:04:40,960 --> 01:04:45,960
Speaker 3: had a great conversation on Newsmax with our good buddy

1107
01:04:45,960 --> 01:04:48,280
Speaker 3: Ben Ferguson. You see him on CNN a lot, but

1108
01:04:48,320 --> 01:04:51,440
Speaker 3: he also comes on My Newsmax show, and Ben is

1109
01:04:51,480 --> 01:04:53,920
Speaker 3: really fired up over a couple of things. First of all,

1110
01:04:54,480 --> 01:04:58,480
Speaker 3: what's happening with the with Jaden Ivy and boy has

1111
01:04:58,520 --> 01:05:03,120
Speaker 3: that story just exploded. There's a lot of controversy over

1112
01:05:03,560 --> 01:05:06,320
Speaker 3: the NBA. People are now calling for us to boycott

1113
01:05:06,360 --> 01:05:09,800
Speaker 3: the Chicago Bulls and the NBA in general. A lot

1114
01:05:09,840 --> 01:05:12,720
Speaker 3: of sportscasters are now saying that this guy is mentally

1115
01:05:12,760 --> 01:05:15,840
Speaker 3: off his rocker. So fergus and joined us to talk

1116
01:05:15,840 --> 01:05:18,160
Speaker 3: about that. Also had some things to say about John

1117
01:05:18,240 --> 01:05:20,760
Speaker 3: Thune as well. Let's take a listen your take on

1118
01:05:21,040 --> 01:05:23,640
Speaker 3: what we've seen take place over the past twenty four hours.

1119
01:05:23,880 --> 01:05:24,080
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1120
01:05:24,120 --> 01:05:27,880
Speaker 16: I thought the LGBTQ plus II plus plus AA community

1121
01:05:27,960 --> 01:05:30,720
Speaker 16: was supposed to be all about tolerance, right, Well, there's

1122
01:05:30,720 --> 01:05:34,680
Speaker 16: no tolerance here for someone that disagrees with what you're demanding.

1123
01:05:34,720 --> 01:05:37,280
Speaker 16: And what the NBA has done is they basically now

1124
01:05:37,400 --> 01:05:41,960
Speaker 16: sanctioned political speech. And you must agree with what the

1125
01:05:42,080 --> 01:05:44,800
Speaker 16: NBA says you have to believe in.

1126
01:05:45,240 --> 01:05:47,640
Speaker 2: You know, I challenge.

1127
01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:51,920
Speaker 16: Every single Christian, every single person that believes differently than

1128
01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:55,520
Speaker 16: someone else in Chicago. Don't go to the game, don't

1129
01:05:55,560 --> 01:05:58,680
Speaker 16: sell your ticket. By the way, have an empty stadium.

1130
01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:01,400
Speaker 16: I assume there's a lot of people that identify as

1131
01:06:01,400 --> 01:06:03,920
Speaker 16: being people of faith that go to Chicago Bulls teams.

1132
01:06:03,920 --> 01:06:06,760
Speaker 16: There's a lot of churches in Chicago. And if you

1133
01:06:06,840 --> 01:06:10,120
Speaker 16: are watching this right now, they will do this to you.

1134
01:06:10,360 --> 01:06:13,400
Speaker 16: This is how you silence people. This is what happens

1135
01:06:13,440 --> 01:06:17,120
Speaker 16: in other countries around the world. This individual did not

1136
01:06:17,280 --> 01:06:21,400
Speaker 16: attack anyone. What he said was he was being persecuted

1137
01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:26,520
Speaker 16: for his beliefs during a mandate by the NBA when

1138
01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:28,720
Speaker 16: it comes to Pride Month and everything else that goes

1139
01:06:28,760 --> 01:06:31,040
Speaker 16: along with it. I also hope, by the way, there's

1140
01:06:31,040 --> 01:06:34,560
Speaker 16: a lawsuit here. I hope he gets amazing lawyers, and

1141
01:06:34,600 --> 01:06:36,640
Speaker 16: I hope there's a real lawsuit here so that he

1142
01:06:36,680 --> 01:06:39,240
Speaker 16: can sit up for what he believes in. And clearly

1143
01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:43,560
Speaker 16: they fired him for his religious beliefs. This attack on Christians,

1144
01:06:43,800 --> 01:06:48,600
Speaker 16: this attack on anybody that has faith in God in general.

1145
01:06:48,920 --> 01:06:52,479
Speaker 16: And so I go back to the NBA, and let's

1146
01:06:52,560 --> 01:06:55,439
Speaker 16: be clear, this is the same NBA that put Black

1147
01:06:55,480 --> 01:06:58,200
Speaker 16: Lives Matter all over their stadiums and on their courts,

1148
01:06:58,480 --> 01:07:01,400
Speaker 16: and they talk about tolerant and they say, look, if

1149
01:07:01,400 --> 01:07:03,400
Speaker 16: we tell you you can believe in it, will allow

1150
01:07:03,440 --> 01:07:05,400
Speaker 16: you to believe in it. But if you do something

1151
01:07:05,440 --> 01:07:09,040
Speaker 16: we don't like, we will fire you. That's not religious

1152
01:07:09,040 --> 01:07:10,720
Speaker 16: freedom in America. And I hope he sues, and I

1153
01:07:10,720 --> 01:07:11,840
Speaker 16: hope he gets a lot of money.

1154
01:07:12,040 --> 01:07:14,320
Speaker 3: Here's yeah, And the great irony here is you've got

1155
01:07:14,320 --> 01:07:17,520
Speaker 3: players out there doing all sorts of terrible things. They've

1156
01:07:17,560 --> 01:07:21,240
Speaker 3: attacked women, they've broken the law, and if those guys

1157
01:07:21,240 --> 01:07:24,320
Speaker 3: are giving a second chance, they keep those guys around,

1158
01:07:24,360 --> 01:07:26,360
Speaker 3: but they're going to give the Christian guy the heave ho.

1159
01:07:26,560 --> 01:07:30,080
Speaker 2: Ben. Yeah, Look, I have no problem with second chances.

1160
01:07:30,080 --> 01:07:31,640
Speaker 16: I want to be clear about that that you shouldn't

1161
01:07:31,640 --> 01:07:33,240
Speaker 16: be able to buy your way back on a team

1162
01:07:33,280 --> 01:07:35,480
Speaker 16: after you have used women. And we have multiple cases

1163
01:07:35,520 --> 01:07:40,400
Speaker 16: that happening of wife beaters and girlfriend beaters who were

1164
01:07:40,400 --> 01:07:42,760
Speaker 16: given a pathway right back to play because.

1165
01:07:42,480 --> 01:07:43,080
Speaker 2: They were good.

1166
01:07:43,680 --> 01:07:48,280
Speaker 16: The difference here is this, Todd, he didn't do anything wrong.

1167
01:07:48,600 --> 01:07:50,720
Speaker 2: He didn't beat up a woman in an elevator.

1168
01:07:51,040 --> 01:07:53,480
Speaker 16: He didn't beat up a girlfriend in a hotel room

1169
01:07:53,600 --> 01:07:55,200
Speaker 16: or a wife in a hotel room. He didn't beat

1170
01:07:55,280 --> 01:07:58,240
Speaker 16: up a kid, he didn't take drugs, he didn't have

1171
01:07:58,320 --> 01:08:01,240
Speaker 16: a gun on him. For example, We've seen Jay Moran

1172
01:08:01,480 --> 01:08:03,440
Speaker 16: in Memphis, Tennessee, for example, I had a lot of

1173
01:08:03,480 --> 01:08:06,040
Speaker 16: problems with guns in his hands, and they found a

1174
01:08:06,080 --> 01:08:09,480
Speaker 16: pathway for him to come back. This individual did nothing

1175
01:08:09,560 --> 01:08:13,560
Speaker 16: wrong but to say, this is what I believe because

1176
01:08:13,600 --> 01:08:16,960
Speaker 16: of my faith. And now he's been fired because he

1177
01:08:17,040 --> 01:08:19,400
Speaker 16: believes in God more than he believes in the NBA

1178
01:08:19,560 --> 01:08:23,599
Speaker 16: and their propaganda. The NBA is a liberal organization. Look

1179
01:08:23,640 --> 01:08:26,559
Speaker 16: at their courts, look at what's on their uniforms, look

1180
01:08:26,600 --> 01:08:28,920
Speaker 16: at their hypocrisy. When had they have no problem being

1181
01:08:28,920 --> 01:08:31,320
Speaker 16: in business with China. Look at the shoes that are

1182
01:08:31,320 --> 01:08:33,280
Speaker 16: played by many of the NBA players that are done

1183
01:08:33,280 --> 01:08:36,840
Speaker 16: in sweatshops of children in China and the slave labor

1184
01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:40,719
Speaker 16: that goes on there. So don't lecture me, NBA about

1185
01:08:40,840 --> 01:08:43,720
Speaker 16: human rights when you guys are in business with China

1186
01:08:43,800 --> 01:08:46,280
Speaker 16: and they're enslaving children who are making almost all of

1187
01:08:46,280 --> 01:08:46,960
Speaker 16: your sneakers.

1188
01:08:47,040 --> 01:08:49,000
Speaker 2: Like, spare me the fake outrage here.

1189
01:08:49,400 --> 01:08:52,759
Speaker 16: What this really is is a persecution by the NBA

1190
01:08:52,840 --> 01:08:56,280
Speaker 16: of Christians. And they were telling every Christian in every

1191
01:08:56,280 --> 01:08:58,559
Speaker 16: team in that league, you better shut up and sit

1192
01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:01,920
Speaker 16: down during Pride Month and any other propaganda politically we

1193
01:09:01,960 --> 01:09:02,519
Speaker 16: want to put.

1194
01:09:02,400 --> 01:09:04,120
Speaker 2: On your uniform or on the court you play on.

1195
01:09:04,560 --> 01:09:07,200
Speaker 16: You better stand proud and loud when it happens, or

1196
01:09:07,240 --> 01:09:08,679
Speaker 16: we'll get rid of you as well.

1197
01:09:09,200 --> 01:09:11,439
Speaker 3: Ben, I want to move on real quick. Get your

1198
01:09:11,479 --> 01:09:14,719
Speaker 3: take on what we're watching take place up in Capitol

1199
01:09:14,800 --> 01:09:17,000
Speaker 3: kill right now in Congress. You've got to send it

1200
01:09:17,040 --> 01:09:19,840
Speaker 3: out on what spring break to me, facation, Lindsey Graham,

1201
01:09:19,880 --> 01:09:22,720
Speaker 3: town at Disney World, to and lord knows what. And

1202
01:09:22,760 --> 01:09:26,560
Speaker 3: the American people been. They're sick and tired of this nonsense.

1203
01:09:26,640 --> 01:09:29,599
Speaker 3: And I'm telling you, if we don't get it together,

1204
01:09:29,640 --> 01:09:32,320
Speaker 3: we can have some big problems come to midterms. Yeah,

1205
01:09:32,520 --> 01:09:33,240
Speaker 3: I agree with you.

1206
01:09:33,280 --> 01:09:35,120
Speaker 16: And look, I think what you've witnessed now is the

1207
01:09:35,160 --> 01:09:37,080
Speaker 16: president saying is time for them to get back to work.

1208
01:09:37,560 --> 01:09:39,080
Speaker 16: I want to be clear, I do not think the

1209
01:09:39,120 --> 01:09:41,320
Speaker 16: sin is going to come back early. John Thing doesn't

1210
01:09:41,320 --> 01:09:43,160
Speaker 16: give a crap as long as he has power, even

1211
01:09:43,200 --> 01:09:45,719
Speaker 16: if he's a minority and he's still in charge, He's

1212
01:09:45,760 --> 01:09:46,479
Speaker 16: happy with that.

1213
01:09:46,560 --> 01:09:46,720
Speaker 2: Right.

1214
01:09:46,760 --> 01:09:49,400
Speaker 16: Lindsey Graham is the same way. He's a guy that's like, hey,

1215
01:09:49,439 --> 01:09:50,880
Speaker 16: I've had a good year. I've gotten this into a

1216
01:09:50,920 --> 01:09:53,240
Speaker 16: couple of wars. I'm advocating for some more. I'm going

1217
01:09:53,320 --> 01:09:55,400
Speaker 16: to go down to Disneyland and walk around with some

1218
01:09:55,439 --> 01:09:58,400
Speaker 16: sort of kid's toy Like that's a whole other level

1219
01:09:58,400 --> 01:09:58,800
Speaker 16: of leird.

1220
01:09:58,800 --> 01:10:00,160
Speaker 2: We can deal with that another day.

1221
01:10:00,360 --> 01:10:02,240
Speaker 16: But what I do think the American people need to

1222
01:10:02,280 --> 01:10:04,240
Speaker 16: do here is they need to be calling their sinners

1223
01:10:04,280 --> 01:10:07,519
Speaker 16: and saying, do your damn job, get back to work

1224
01:10:07,800 --> 01:10:10,559
Speaker 16: and pay the people that protect and defend this country.

1225
01:10:10,760 --> 01:10:13,920
Speaker 16: Pay the TSA agents, do not hold them hostage. And also,

1226
01:10:14,120 --> 01:10:16,439
Speaker 16: just I think to Thune, like I'm sorry, grow a

1227
01:10:16,520 --> 01:10:19,360
Speaker 16: pair to be blunt and do your job like the

1228
01:10:19,400 --> 01:10:22,479
Speaker 16: American people gave you the majority, act like it you

1229
01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:24,719
Speaker 16: need to have. If you need to have a talking

1230
01:10:24,760 --> 01:10:27,840
Speaker 16: filibuster to get them paid, then do it, because I

1231
01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:29,680
Speaker 16: promise you Democrats would do it.

1232
01:10:29,920 --> 01:10:31,320
Speaker 2: And John Thune is a wuss.

1233
01:10:31,439 --> 01:10:33,759
Speaker 16: He's a useful idiot for the left, and he's useless

1234
01:10:33,760 --> 01:10:36,960
Speaker 16: for the Republican Party and conservatives right now, including Donald Trump.

01:12:38,680 --> 01:12:41,719
Speaker 3: up and then it's off to the printers and it'll

1268
01:12:41,720 --> 01:12:44,840
Speaker 3: be in bookstores in the spring, I believe in May

1269
01:12:45,320 --> 01:12:47,640
Speaker 3: is when the book is coming out. But we have

1270
01:12:47,760 --> 01:12:50,920
Speaker 3: had a number of people that have now officially endorsed

1271
01:12:50,960 --> 01:12:54,200
Speaker 3: the book. It's called The Golden Age How Trump Saved America.

1272
01:12:54,560 --> 01:12:57,200
Speaker 3: And I want to read what President what President Trump

1273
01:12:57,240 --> 01:13:00,040
Speaker 3: had to say. This is kind of cool President t

1274
01:13:00,400 --> 01:13:04,440
Speaker 3: saying this about the Golden Age How he Saved America.

1275
01:13:05,000 --> 01:13:07,760
Speaker 3: It's a lousy book. No, he didn't say that. Todd

1276
01:13:07,800 --> 01:13:11,000
Speaker 3: Stearns is a fierce defender of freedom and a great patriot.

1277
01:13:11,320 --> 01:13:14,040
Speaker 3: He has seen and understands what is happening to our

1278
01:13:14,080 --> 01:13:19,200
Speaker 3: country like few others. Well, I certainly appreciate that, mister President. Also,

1279
01:13:19,640 --> 01:13:23,360
Speaker 3: the Speaker of the House Mike Johnson. Writing this as

1280
01:13:23,479 --> 01:13:27,519
Speaker 3: President Trump leads our nation into its Golden Age, Todd

1281
01:13:27,600 --> 01:13:32,000
Speaker 3: Stearns has delivered a powerful and timely book that challenges

1282
01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:36,240
Speaker 3: us to be that shining city on a hill. Read

1283
01:13:36,400 --> 01:13:38,960
Speaker 3: and share this with friends and family who believe in

1284
01:13:39,000 --> 01:13:44,240
Speaker 3: America and want to help keep our extraordinary republic, and

1285
01:13:44,360 --> 01:13:47,240
Speaker 3: ladies and gentlemen, that's what it's really all about, is

1286
01:13:47,360 --> 01:13:51,439
Speaker 3: making sure that we carry the torch. President Trump has

1287
01:13:51,520 --> 01:13:55,080
Speaker 3: shown us the way, and we have to rise up,

1288
01:13:55,200 --> 01:13:59,040
Speaker 3: and we have got to carry on that task. And

1289
01:13:59,160 --> 01:14:02,360
Speaker 3: that's the reason why I wrote The Golden Age, and

1290
01:14:02,400 --> 01:14:04,960
Speaker 3: you're gonna love it. It's also a fun read. There

1291
01:14:05,000 --> 01:14:07,280
Speaker 3: are some chapters that are gonna really make you laugh.

1292
01:14:07,479 --> 01:14:10,759
Speaker 3: You can get a copy at Amazon, Barnes and Noble

1293
01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:13,840
Speaker 3: Books a miliant pre order, and we encourage you to

1294
01:14:13,840 --> 01:14:15,600
Speaker 3: do that so we get a pretty good estimate of

1295
01:14:15,600 --> 01:14:18,479
Speaker 3: how many books we're gonna need to order for launch day.

1296
01:14:18,520 --> 01:14:20,320
Speaker 3: All right, let's go to the phones real quick. Jim

01:16:15,360 --> 01:16:19,200
Speaker 3: off into space the first trip around the Moon in

1323
01:16:19,360 --> 01:16:21,800
Speaker 3: over fifty years, that's going to be a lot of fun,

1324
01:16:22,160 --> 01:16:25,040
Speaker 3: and we'll be sharing more information about that as well,

1325
01:16:25,040 --> 01:16:28,240
Speaker 3: but right now, more pressing matters. It's always fun when

1326
01:16:28,280 --> 01:16:31,519
Speaker 3: we have a guest in studio, and we do have

1327
01:16:31,600 --> 01:16:36,400
Speaker 3: a guest, a great American patriot. He is a longtime

1328
01:16:36,439 --> 01:16:39,160
Speaker 3: congressman and wants to be the next governor of the

1329
01:16:39,160 --> 01:16:42,639
Speaker 3: state of Tennessee. We're talking about Congressman John Rose. Good

1330
01:16:42,640 --> 01:16:44,679
Speaker 3: to see you here in Memphis today.

1331
01:16:44,920 --> 01:16:47,439
Speaker 18: Thank you, Todd. It's a great honor and privileged to

1332
01:16:47,479 --> 01:16:48,280
Speaker 18: be on the show today.

1333
01:16:48,360 --> 01:16:51,559
Speaker 3: You know, I'm just curious here, and this is not

1334
01:16:51,640 --> 01:16:55,240
Speaker 3: a gotcha question. Did you have to stand in a

1335
01:16:55,360 --> 01:16:57,720
Speaker 3: line at the airport to get here or did you

1336
01:16:57,720 --> 01:16:59,439
Speaker 3: get the special security escort?

1337
01:17:00,400 --> 01:17:03,880
Speaker 18: Well, I've always stood in the line. Sometimes there isn't one,

1338
01:17:03,960 --> 01:17:06,840
Speaker 18: and that's a great thing, but very often there is.

1339
01:17:06,920 --> 01:17:11,120
Speaker 18: So Remarkably flying out of Memphis, flying out of Nashville

1340
01:17:11,240 --> 01:17:15,240
Speaker 18: and into Nashville and Memphis from DC, there haven't been

1341
01:17:15,320 --> 01:17:19,000
Speaker 18: particularly long lines, even in the heart of the shutdown,

1342
01:17:19,080 --> 01:17:20,759
Speaker 18: and so been thankful for that.

1343
01:17:20,680 --> 01:17:22,280
Speaker 3: Because you know, I don't know if you heard the

1344
01:17:22,320 --> 01:17:24,840
Speaker 3: news TMZ, they're kind of like the gotcha you know

1345
01:17:24,920 --> 01:17:28,640
Speaker 3: magazine of Hollywood they're launching a political division. So I

1346
01:17:28,640 --> 01:17:31,240
Speaker 3: guess they're setting up shop in our nation's capital now

1347
01:17:31,640 --> 01:17:36,599
Speaker 3: and they're already like naming and cataloging which lawmakers are

1348
01:17:36,640 --> 01:17:39,879
Speaker 3: getting that special walk around the long lines.

1349
01:17:40,160 --> 01:17:41,080
Speaker 18: I've seen the video.

1350
01:17:41,240 --> 01:17:44,040
Speaker 3: You have seen in the video. Yes, all right, okay,

1351
01:17:44,560 --> 01:17:47,840
Speaker 3: we're not I won't go any further than that. But Congressman,

1352
01:17:48,000 --> 01:17:50,440
Speaker 3: there is a lot, there is a lot of turmoil

1353
01:17:50,520 --> 01:17:52,479
Speaker 3: right now. I know you were the very first, the

1354
01:17:52,640 --> 01:17:56,280
Speaker 3: very first lawmaker to say the Senators need to do

1355
01:17:56,360 --> 01:17:59,759
Speaker 3: something about their leadership over in this on the Senate side,

1356
01:17:59,800 --> 01:18:02,320
Speaker 3: and now a lot of other lawmakers are saying the

1357
01:18:02,360 --> 01:18:02,800
Speaker 3: same thing.

1358
01:18:03,240 --> 01:18:05,800
Speaker 18: Absolutely, I think there's no question about it. And the

1359
01:18:05,880 --> 01:18:11,120
Speaker 18: more that I think this rests from their really inexplicable

1360
01:18:11,120 --> 01:18:15,280
Speaker 18: action last the week hours of Thursday night Friday morning

1361
01:18:15,400 --> 01:18:19,320
Speaker 18: last week, I think becomes clearer and clearer that Leader

1362
01:18:19,360 --> 01:18:22,720
Speaker 18: Thune is not providing the kind of conservative leadership that

1363
01:18:22,760 --> 01:18:25,160
Speaker 18: we need right now as a country, that we need

1364
01:18:25,200 --> 01:18:28,800
Speaker 18: from the Republican Party and the senators in the United

1365
01:18:28,840 --> 01:18:29,400
Speaker 18: States Senate.

1366
01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:33,880
Speaker 3: My concern is that this is just really demoralizing the

1367
01:18:33,920 --> 01:18:35,639
Speaker 3: base of the party and it's not so much you're

1368
01:18:35,640 --> 01:18:37,960
Speaker 3: going to have Republicans vote Democrat. You're just going to

1369
01:18:38,000 --> 01:18:40,640
Speaker 3: have a lot of Republicans stay home in November. And

1370
01:18:40,760 --> 01:18:41,840
Speaker 3: I'm concerned about that.

1371
01:18:42,280 --> 01:18:44,920
Speaker 18: I am as well, and I think for good reason

1372
01:18:44,960 --> 01:18:47,360
Speaker 18: at some level. I mean, I would argue they shouldn't

1373
01:18:47,560 --> 01:18:51,080
Speaker 18: because this is essentially a binary choice, as we so

1374
01:18:51,200 --> 01:18:55,000
Speaker 18: often face in Congress and technically the voters face, and

1375
01:18:55,040 --> 01:18:56,880
Speaker 18: so you know, it's not as though if you don't

1376
01:18:56,960 --> 01:18:59,960
Speaker 18: vote for Republicans that you're going to get something better.

1377
01:19:00,560 --> 01:19:02,840
Speaker 18: You're going to get something far worse. You're going to

1378
01:19:02,880 --> 01:19:06,719
Speaker 18: get Democrats. And Democratic control of the House or Senate

1379
01:19:06,920 --> 01:19:09,800
Speaker 18: will take us down a very dark road. We know

1380
01:19:09,880 --> 01:19:12,519
Speaker 18: if they get control of the House, the very first

1381
01:19:12,560 --> 01:19:14,720
Speaker 18: thing they will do is to impeach the president and

1382
01:19:14,760 --> 01:19:17,559
Speaker 18: then start chasing other people in his administration, and that's

1383
01:19:17,560 --> 01:19:19,559
Speaker 18: where they'll spend all of their time and energy.

1384
01:19:19,840 --> 01:19:23,040
Speaker 3: I have been impressed with Speaker Johnson. It seems like

1385
01:19:23,280 --> 01:19:27,160
Speaker 3: he has changed, maybe going from a timid leader to

1386
01:19:27,240 --> 01:19:30,280
Speaker 3: one who is really out there speaking truth to the

1387
01:19:30,320 --> 01:19:34,000
Speaker 3: powers that be. What's your assessment of how he is

1388
01:19:34,120 --> 01:19:35,560
Speaker 3: leading the Republicans.

1389
01:19:35,760 --> 01:19:39,040
Speaker 18: Well, I think you're right. I think he really sized

1390
01:19:39,120 --> 01:19:42,679
Speaker 18: up the moment last Friday and understood that going along

1391
01:19:42,720 --> 01:19:45,080
Speaker 18: with what the Senate had done was a non starter.

1392
01:19:45,560 --> 01:19:47,960
Speaker 18: It was a non starter among those of us who

1393
01:19:48,000 --> 01:19:50,559
Speaker 18: are conservative in the Republican Conference, but it was a

1394
01:19:50,560 --> 01:19:53,439
Speaker 18: non starter for the Republican Party and the Republican voters

1395
01:19:53,439 --> 01:19:54,360
Speaker 18: across the country.

1396
01:19:54,520 --> 01:19:57,439
Speaker 3: What would you recommend people do? How many? Because people

1397
01:19:57,479 --> 01:19:59,000
Speaker 3: are frustrating or they want to be able to do

1398
01:19:59,080 --> 01:20:01,960
Speaker 3: something and they don't feel like the Senate is listening

1399
01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:05,320
Speaker 3: to them. And before you answer that, though, I think

1400
01:20:05,360 --> 01:20:07,960
Speaker 3: the broader issue is where are all of the other

1401
01:20:08,040 --> 01:20:11,559
Speaker 3: Republican senators calling out their leadership? That's that's my.

1402
01:20:11,640 --> 01:20:14,479
Speaker 18: Concern, absolutely, and I think that's what I was going

1403
01:20:14,560 --> 01:20:16,360
Speaker 18: to recommend to the listeners is you need to be

1404
01:20:16,360 --> 01:20:18,920
Speaker 18: calling your senator, you know, whoever that is, whatever state

1405
01:20:18,960 --> 01:20:23,200
Speaker 18: you're in here in Tennessee, Senator Blackburn, Senator Haggerty, you

1406
01:20:23,240 --> 01:20:25,800
Speaker 18: need to let them know that you expect them to

1407
01:20:25,920 --> 01:20:29,280
Speaker 18: call their leader, John Thune, to task for what happened.

1408
01:20:29,320 --> 01:20:32,760
Speaker 18: And as we know, and we alluded to earlier, they

1409
01:20:32,880 --> 01:20:35,720
Speaker 18: left town. Some of them left town even before the

1410
01:20:35,840 --> 01:20:40,120
Speaker 18: vote at three am on Friday morning, and so they

1411
01:20:40,200 --> 01:20:44,120
Speaker 18: clearly knew what the deal was we didn't know. Speaker

1412
01:20:44,200 --> 01:20:48,559
Speaker 18: Johnson didn't know, but clearly the Republican senators in the

1413
01:20:48,640 --> 01:20:51,519
Speaker 18: majority knew what was coming, and they left town knowing

1414
01:20:51,600 --> 01:20:52,920
Speaker 18: that they didn't need to be there.

1415
01:20:53,120 --> 01:20:56,280
Speaker 3: I'm I have already endorsed early early on, and I

1416
01:20:56,360 --> 01:20:58,760
Speaker 3: endorsed Marshall Blackburn. I think that's important for people to

1417
01:20:58,760 --> 01:21:01,200
Speaker 3: know in the gubernatorial race. But I want to hear

1418
01:21:01,240 --> 01:21:05,760
Speaker 3: your reaction when you saw her leaving early and at

1419
01:21:05,800 --> 01:21:09,120
Speaker 3: that airport getting the private you know, escort. What was

1420
01:21:09,160 --> 01:21:11,280
Speaker 3: going through your mind. I mean, you're not only a candidate,

1421
01:21:11,280 --> 01:21:12,200
Speaker 3: but you're a constituent.

1422
01:21:12,720 --> 01:21:15,280
Speaker 18: Yeah, So I think it's a pattern. We saw this

1423
01:21:15,360 --> 01:21:18,920
Speaker 18: with the payday provision that was put pushed through last

1424
01:21:18,920 --> 01:21:22,680
Speaker 18: fall from the Senate to the to the House to

1425
01:21:22,960 --> 01:21:25,679
Speaker 18: give her and other members of the Senate a chance

1426
01:21:25,720 --> 01:21:30,040
Speaker 18: to reap potentially millions of dollars from taxpayers at taxpayers expense.

1427
01:21:30,479 --> 01:21:35,360
Speaker 18: We saw it again, you know, with this example of

1428
01:21:35,400 --> 01:21:40,200
Speaker 18: her leaving town bypassing security, leaving her post before the

1429
01:21:40,520 --> 01:21:44,280
Speaker 18: job was done. And we saw it in Nashville when

1430
01:21:44,280 --> 01:21:48,479
Speaker 18: the ice storm came and she requested to get put

1431
01:21:48,520 --> 01:21:51,559
Speaker 18: to the head of the line for having her home

1432
01:21:51,640 --> 01:21:54,919
Speaker 18: electricity put back on. And I think that's exactly backwards.

1433
01:21:54,960 --> 01:21:58,680
Speaker 18: I think we need leaders who understand that leaders eat last.

1434
01:21:58,960 --> 01:22:02,440
Speaker 18: We should put the people that we represent first. And

1435
01:22:02,439 --> 01:22:04,960
Speaker 18: and so I think it's just a troubling pattern.

1436
01:22:05,080 --> 01:22:05,160
Speaker 5: Now.

1437
01:22:05,520 --> 01:22:07,960
Speaker 3: You know, as a business owner, you know there and

1438
01:22:08,040 --> 01:22:09,840
Speaker 3: the radio business, you know they're going to be great

1439
01:22:09,920 --> 01:22:12,320
Speaker 3: years and not so great years. And and to your point,

1440
01:22:12,560 --> 01:22:14,400
Speaker 3: the owner of the station is the last person that

1441
01:22:14,520 --> 01:22:16,880
Speaker 3: gets paid. You know, that's that's a part of leadership,

1442
01:22:16,960 --> 01:22:19,519
Speaker 3: is putting the needs of others ahead of yours.

1443
01:22:19,800 --> 01:22:21,880
Speaker 18: And I know that as a as a business owner

1444
01:22:21,920 --> 01:22:24,240
Speaker 18: and a person who's built businesses, you you know, you

1445
01:22:24,280 --> 01:22:28,040
Speaker 18: get paid last. Sometimes you get paid the most if

1446
01:22:28,080 --> 01:22:30,960
Speaker 18: things go really well, but oftentimes you don't get paid

1447
01:22:30,960 --> 01:22:31,280
Speaker 18: at all.

1448
01:22:31,439 --> 01:22:33,720
Speaker 3: Exactly, which is why we love President Trump coming on

1449
01:22:33,760 --> 01:22:37,280
Speaker 3: the show at boost our ratings. Just getting well, it

1450
01:22:37,280 --> 01:22:40,959
Speaker 3: does boost our ratings. We have Congressman Genres from Tennessee

1451
01:22:41,200 --> 01:22:45,120
Speaker 3: joining us, weighing in on the chaos in our nation's capital.

1452
01:22:45,160 --> 01:22:47,599
Speaker 3: Of course, you know, another part of that is you know,

1453
01:22:47,640 --> 01:22:50,960
Speaker 3: getting d HS funded. And again, as much as you

1454
01:22:50,960 --> 01:22:53,439
Speaker 3: know we we focus on the Republicans, this is a

1455
01:22:53,560 --> 01:22:57,160
Speaker 3: Democrat issue. They're the ones that want that want DHS

1456
01:22:57,160 --> 01:22:57,719
Speaker 3: shut down.

1457
01:22:57,960 --> 01:22:59,800
Speaker 18: That's right, and we need to remember all the way

1458
01:22:59,800 --> 01:23:04,160
Speaker 18: back to last fall. So now three times Leader Schumer,

1459
01:23:04,240 --> 01:23:07,040
Speaker 18: Minority Leader Chuck Schumer in the in the Senate has

1460
01:23:07,240 --> 01:23:12,120
Speaker 18: led a Democrat instigated shut down this of the of

1461
01:23:12,160 --> 01:23:15,760
Speaker 18: the government, this time partial, just affecting the Department of

1462
01:23:15,760 --> 01:23:19,679
Speaker 18: Homeland Security. But in each case they were putting illegal

1463
01:23:19,760 --> 01:23:23,280
Speaker 18: immigrants above American citizens. Last fall, it was health care

1464
01:23:23,320 --> 01:23:26,080
Speaker 18: for free health care for illegal immigrants. Now it is

1465
01:23:26,479 --> 01:23:30,120
Speaker 18: stopping Ice and the customers of Border Protection from protecting

1466
01:23:30,120 --> 01:23:33,800
Speaker 18: Americans from criminal illegal aliens. They're putting them ahead of

1467
01:23:33,840 --> 01:23:37,400
Speaker 18: American citizens and it's shameful and it should stop, and

1468
01:23:37,439 --> 01:23:40,200
Speaker 18: we should call it out. And frankly, the Senate should

1469
01:23:40,200 --> 01:23:43,680
Speaker 18: have stated Washington, and I believe they might have capitulated

1470
01:23:44,200 --> 01:23:47,000
Speaker 18: with all of the news that was bearing down on them.

1471
01:23:47,760 --> 01:23:51,559
Speaker 18: I think had had Leader Thune said we're staying here

1472
01:23:51,680 --> 01:23:53,880
Speaker 18: until we get the job done. I suspect there might

1473
01:23:53,880 --> 01:23:57,599
Speaker 18: have been some Democratic senators who would have said, maybe

1474
01:23:57,640 --> 01:23:58,760
Speaker 18: it's time to make a deal.

1475
01:23:59,280 --> 01:24:02,920
Speaker 3: I'm curious, Congressman about boots on the ground. There's been

1476
01:24:02,920 --> 01:24:05,000
Speaker 3: a lot of talk about that. One of the things

1477
01:24:05,040 --> 01:24:08,160
Speaker 3: I've realized about President Trump. He has really never changed

1478
01:24:08,160 --> 01:24:10,439
Speaker 3: his position on any of his issues. He knows what

1479
01:24:10,520 --> 01:24:12,800
Speaker 3: he believes in, and it's been that way since the

1480
01:24:12,880 --> 01:24:14,880
Speaker 3: nineteen eighties when he first said we got to go

1481
01:24:14,920 --> 01:24:19,280
Speaker 3: after Iran, and now here we are so many years later. Look,

1482
01:24:19,520 --> 01:24:21,720
Speaker 3: I think the President is just sending a message. I

1483
01:24:21,760 --> 01:24:23,080
Speaker 3: don't know if he's going to put boots on the

1484
01:24:23,080 --> 01:24:26,320
Speaker 3: ground or not, but I think Iran doesn't know that.

1485
01:24:26,720 --> 01:24:30,040
Speaker 3: And the enemy has to be very concerned about the

1486
01:24:30,080 --> 01:24:32,320
Speaker 3: president because they can't read his mind. But I am

1487
01:24:32,360 --> 01:24:34,880
Speaker 3: curious about in your congressional district, what are people telling

1488
01:24:34,920 --> 01:24:36,120
Speaker 3: you about boots on the ground.

1489
01:24:36,240 --> 01:24:38,599
Speaker 18: Well, I think generally the American people are tired of

1490
01:24:38,640 --> 01:24:42,280
Speaker 18: forever wars, and we saw that with many who supported

1491
01:24:42,320 --> 01:24:45,959
Speaker 18: the president because I think he correctly identified that concern

1492
01:24:46,040 --> 01:24:49,680
Speaker 18: among the American populace. But I think this is a

1493
01:24:49,680 --> 01:24:53,760
Speaker 18: different situation, and I hope and I believe that Americans

1494
01:24:53,840 --> 01:24:57,160
Speaker 18: understand that for forty seven years, Iran has terrorized the world,

1495
01:24:57,160 --> 01:25:00,519
Speaker 18: including the United States. They've been the primary state sponsor

1496
01:25:00,560 --> 01:25:04,240
Speaker 18: of terrorism. They've killed literally thousands of Americans, maimed and

1497
01:25:04,280 --> 01:25:08,679
Speaker 18: injured others, many countless others, and so we can't allow

1498
01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:11,400
Speaker 18: them to get their hands on a nuclear weapon, and

1499
01:25:11,439 --> 01:25:14,400
Speaker 18: the President recognized that, and I think he is the

1500
01:25:14,439 --> 01:25:19,639
Speaker 18: master negotiator, and sometimes he makes threats, but what we

1501
01:25:19,680 --> 01:25:22,200
Speaker 18: know is he's willing to follow through on those and

1502
01:25:22,280 --> 01:25:24,760
Speaker 18: the Iranians would be well advised to take note of

1503
01:25:24,800 --> 01:25:27,400
Speaker 18: what he's saying. So will there be boots on the ground.

1504
01:25:27,439 --> 01:25:30,200
Speaker 18: I think most Americans hope there will not. But if

1505
01:25:30,240 --> 01:25:33,719
Speaker 18: it is what is required to get this enriched uranium

1506
01:25:33,720 --> 01:25:36,479
Speaker 18: out of the country and ensure that it doesn't fall

1507
01:25:36,520 --> 01:25:39,920
Speaker 18: into the hands of some new despotic leader there in Iran,

1508
01:25:40,080 --> 01:25:40,840
Speaker 18: I think it's worth it.

1509
01:25:40,880 --> 01:25:44,000
Speaker 3: I want to get to your run for the governor's

1510
01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:46,280
Speaker 3: office just a moment, but I'm curious about what's going

1511
01:25:46,320 --> 01:25:48,320
Speaker 3: on in Washington. It seems like, I mean, it's always

1512
01:25:48,360 --> 01:25:51,639
Speaker 3: sort of been, you know, a chaos, but we're seeing

1513
01:25:52,080 --> 01:25:55,280
Speaker 3: really unusually large numbers of even Republicans saying, you know what,

1514
01:25:55,320 --> 01:25:58,400
Speaker 3: I'm retiring, I'm done here. We can't get anything done.

1515
01:25:58,520 --> 01:26:01,680
Speaker 3: What's going on? What is broken in Washington, d C.

1516
01:26:02,200 --> 01:26:04,400
Speaker 18: Well, so I would argue that I don't think there's

1517
01:26:04,439 --> 01:26:08,799
Speaker 18: anything broken. It is very frustrating, and I will personally

1518
01:26:08,800 --> 01:26:11,920
Speaker 18: attest to that being in Congress is very frustrating. I

1519
01:26:11,920 --> 01:26:15,799
Speaker 18: certainly wouldn't say enjoyable. But I think if the founders,

1520
01:26:15,840 --> 01:26:18,240
Speaker 18: if the framers of the Constitution came back and they

1521
01:26:18,280 --> 01:26:21,479
Speaker 18: saw how Congress operates, I actually think they'd be pretty

1522
01:26:21,479 --> 01:26:25,080
Speaker 18: tickled about it. Because they distrusted government. They wanted to

1523
01:26:25,160 --> 01:26:28,360
Speaker 18: tie government in knoughts, and they achieved the purpose that

1524
01:26:28,400 --> 01:26:32,479
Speaker 18: they had, so I think they would appreciate the ranker

1525
01:26:32,520 --> 01:26:34,800
Speaker 18: and the debate that's going on they and I think

1526
01:26:34,800 --> 01:26:36,639
Speaker 18: that's what they hoped that they were creating.

1527
01:26:36,800 --> 01:26:39,840
Speaker 3: I suppose, you know, if you're looking at the brighter side,

1528
01:26:39,880 --> 01:26:43,040
Speaker 3: there are no canings and there are no duels that

1529
01:26:43,080 --> 01:26:43,559
Speaker 3: we know of.

1530
01:26:43,920 --> 01:26:46,280
Speaker 18: That's right, and so you know, I mean, if you

1531
01:26:46,439 --> 01:26:48,840
Speaker 18: view it through the full lens of history, I think

1532
01:26:49,320 --> 01:26:52,519
Speaker 18: Congress is working kind of like it always has, with

1533
01:26:52,720 --> 01:26:56,400
Speaker 18: lots of angst and lots of disagreement, but ultimately that's

1534
01:26:56,520 --> 01:26:59,120
Speaker 18: leading to the consensus of what we should do, and

1535
01:26:59,160 --> 01:27:01,760
Speaker 18: sometimes that's very just satisfying the way that that works out.

1536
01:27:02,040 --> 01:27:05,240
Speaker 3: I want to play some audio. There are three Republicans

1537
01:27:05,320 --> 01:27:07,960
Speaker 3: running to be the next governor of Tennessee, and Tennessee

1538
01:27:08,040 --> 01:27:11,000
Speaker 3: is a very important state for the entire conservative movement.

1539
01:27:11,520 --> 01:27:14,920
Speaker 3: Senator Marshall Blackburn's running, You are running, and there's a

1540
01:27:14,920 --> 01:27:18,519
Speaker 3: state representative by Monti Fritz and he's upset with you

1541
01:27:18,640 --> 01:27:21,120
Speaker 3: and Senator Blackburn. I want to take a listen, Adyla,

1542
01:27:21,200 --> 01:27:23,160
Speaker 3: let's play this audio. Wethan.

1543
01:27:23,200 --> 01:27:25,799
Speaker 7: You were talking about hands refusing to debate.

1544
01:27:25,920 --> 01:27:29,599
Speaker 4: Was it just Marshalls John confusing? No, it's absolutely both

1545
01:27:29,600 --> 01:27:29,920
Speaker 4: of them.

1546
01:27:29,960 --> 01:27:31,120
Speaker 10: It's John and Marcia.

1547
01:27:32,040 --> 01:27:34,000
Speaker 19: Early on, I thought he was going to be willing

1548
01:27:34,040 --> 01:27:37,360
Speaker 19: to debate, but then he backed out. I think what

1549
01:27:37,479 --> 01:27:40,040
Speaker 19: I heard from their campaigns, he wasn't willing to debate

1550
01:27:40,120 --> 01:27:42,400
Speaker 19: unless she was there. And so that's what brought my

1551
01:27:42,920 --> 01:27:44,840
Speaker 19: football coach phrase of one of them scared and the

1552
01:27:44,920 --> 01:27:48,280
Speaker 19: other one's glad of it. And you know, there's a

1553
01:27:48,320 --> 01:27:53,560
Speaker 19: big libertarian thing in Chattanooga in a few weeks. Everybody

1554
01:27:53,560 --> 01:27:54,879
Speaker 19: should go for both parties.

1555
01:27:55,479 --> 01:27:56,840
Speaker 2: Let's put everything.

1556
01:27:56,479 --> 01:27:59,920
Speaker 19: Out on the table and talk about their positions and platforms.

1557
01:28:00,160 --> 01:28:01,519
Speaker 3: I think the people deserve that.

1558
01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:03,799
Speaker 18: When do you think about the fact that he complained

1559
01:28:03,800 --> 01:28:05,240
Speaker 18: about her name debating and now.

1560
01:28:06,520 --> 01:28:08,639
Speaker 19: Again one I'm scared and the other.

1561
01:28:09,120 --> 01:28:10,160
Speaker 2: Wouldn't help you vote.

1562
01:28:10,160 --> 01:28:12,920
Speaker 7: If you have some sort of forum where there's an

1563
01:28:12,920 --> 01:28:14,400
Speaker 7: empty chair where she would be sitting.

1564
01:28:14,600 --> 01:28:16,479
Speaker 19: I think it's also might be I think most of

1565
01:28:16,520 --> 01:28:19,280
Speaker 19: the forums of I have there'll be two empty chairs.

1566
01:28:20,000 --> 01:28:22,439
Speaker 18: The people of Tennessee deserve to know, you know, what

1567
01:28:22,479 --> 01:28:23,519
Speaker 18: would she do as governor?

1568
01:28:23,520 --> 01:28:24,839
Speaker 2: Why does she want to be governor?

1569
01:28:24,880 --> 01:28:27,200
Speaker 18: And I think a debate, debates would be the way

1570
01:28:27,240 --> 01:28:27,800
Speaker 18: to get at that.

1571
01:28:28,800 --> 01:28:31,320
Speaker 3: All right, So he's saying, you don't want a debate.

1572
01:28:31,720 --> 01:28:32,599
Speaker 3: Do you want a debate?

1573
01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:35,280
Speaker 18: Absolutely, we want to debate, But I think we have

1574
01:28:35,360 --> 01:28:39,320
Speaker 18: to remember this is the Republican primary, and Republican voters

1575
01:28:39,360 --> 01:28:42,160
Speaker 18: deserve to hear from all the candidates. I mean, it's

1576
01:28:42,200 --> 01:28:46,000
Speaker 18: obvious what Representative Fritz is doing. He's hoping that he

1577
01:28:46,120 --> 01:28:49,800
Speaker 18: might get a lucky swipe in at me if I

1578
01:28:49,920 --> 01:28:53,639
Speaker 18: debate just him. But if we don't have Senator Blackburn there,

1579
01:28:54,400 --> 01:28:57,400
Speaker 18: then we're not really presenting the options to the people

1580
01:28:57,439 --> 01:29:00,200
Speaker 18: of Tennessee. So she should come out, We should have

1581
01:29:00,240 --> 01:29:03,160
Speaker 18: a full fledged debate. We should have all the Republican

1582
01:29:03,240 --> 01:29:07,439
Speaker 18: candidates there for the Republican primary. I will absolutely be

1583
01:29:07,520 --> 01:29:09,120
Speaker 18: there and hope that that happens.

1584
01:29:09,200 --> 01:29:12,519
Speaker 3: So on the record, you are willing to debate Marshall

1585
01:29:12,520 --> 01:29:16,040
Speaker 3: Blackburn and Monty friend absolutely. Oh well that settles that then,

1586
01:29:16,320 --> 01:29:18,559
Speaker 3: So all right, we'll have to try to make that happen.

1587
01:29:18,640 --> 01:29:22,840
Speaker 18: And I think the Republican voters deserve that debate. How

1588
01:29:22,880 --> 01:29:23,920
Speaker 18: do you ought to demand it?

1589
01:29:24,000 --> 01:29:26,439
Speaker 3: How do you how do you address the polling data?

1590
01:29:26,560 --> 01:29:28,479
Speaker 3: You know, there are polls out there and they're showing

1591
01:29:28,520 --> 01:29:32,519
Speaker 3: her with a decisive lead over both of you. How

1592
01:29:32,520 --> 01:29:33,920
Speaker 3: do you interpret that data?

1593
01:29:34,080 --> 01:29:37,960
Speaker 18: It's still driven almost entirely by name identification. So if

1594
01:29:38,000 --> 01:29:41,320
Speaker 18: you ask Tennessee voters have you heard of the following people?

1595
01:29:41,360 --> 01:29:43,640
Speaker 18: And you throw names in front of them. If you

1596
01:29:43,720 --> 01:29:46,040
Speaker 18: put in Marshall Blackburn's name in front of them, ninety

1597
01:29:46,120 --> 01:29:48,400
Speaker 18: ninety five percent of Tennessee's are going to say, yes,

1598
01:29:48,479 --> 01:29:50,280
Speaker 18: I know who that is. If you put John Rose's

1599
01:29:50,360 --> 01:29:52,920
Speaker 18: name in front of them, fifteen to twenty percent are

1600
01:29:52,920 --> 01:29:55,160
Speaker 18: going to say they've heard who I am at this point.

1601
01:29:55,200 --> 01:30:00,040
Speaker 18: And then so the results of those polls reflect that

1602
01:30:00,160 --> 01:30:02,760
Speaker 18: lack of awareness. We're going to fix that, but we

1603
01:30:02,880 --> 01:30:05,280
Speaker 18: have to wait until the voters are really ready to

1604
01:30:05,439 --> 01:30:08,080
Speaker 18: hear that message, and so that's coming, it's soon now.

1605
01:30:08,920 --> 01:30:11,960
Speaker 18: And when we do that, our polling data shows us

1606
01:30:12,040 --> 01:30:16,040
Speaker 18: that the Tennessee voters will come out the Republican voters

1607
01:30:16,040 --> 01:30:17,280
Speaker 18: in the primary will come our way.

1608
01:30:17,360 --> 01:30:19,240
Speaker 3: All right, where can people go, Congress But if they

1609
01:30:19,280 --> 01:30:21,560
Speaker 3: want to get more information about your platform.

1610
01:30:21,200 --> 01:30:23,920
Speaker 18: It's simple. John Rose dot com, j O H N

1611
01:30:24,120 --> 01:30:25,679
Speaker 18: R O S E dot com.

1612
01:30:25,720 --> 01:30:28,439
Speaker 3: All right, Congressman, good to see you. And I know

1613
01:30:28,760 --> 01:30:31,280
Speaker 3: you were hanging out with the Republican Women of Purpose

1614
01:30:31,400 --> 01:30:33,920
Speaker 3: earlier today and they always throw a great shindig.

1615
01:30:34,120 --> 01:30:38,080
Speaker 18: Yes, great meal and great people and great patriots.

1616
01:30:38,120 --> 01:30:40,200
Speaker 3: All Right, we got to leave it there, Congressman, good

1617
01:30:40,200 --> 01:30:42,280
Speaker 3: to see you. Good luck out there on the campaign trail.

1618
01:30:42,479 --> 01:30:42,800
Speaker 4: Thank you.

1619
01:30:42,840 --> 01:30:51,959
Speaker 3: All right, we'll be right back everybody. All right, welcome back, everybody.

1620
01:30:51,960 --> 01:30:53,680
Speaker 3: Good to have you with us. And we're going to

1621
01:30:53,720 --> 01:30:56,160
Speaker 3: be doing our best to get a number of candidates

1622
01:30:56,160 --> 01:31:00,559
Speaker 3: from around the nation on the show. And we you know,

1623
01:31:00,720 --> 01:31:03,479
Speaker 3: this is important. We need to talk about the midterms.

1624
01:31:03,479 --> 01:31:06,120
Speaker 3: And you heard Congressman Rose just a few moments ago,

1625
01:31:06,200 --> 01:31:10,719
Speaker 3: and he is rightfully concerned that the lack of action

1626
01:31:11,000 --> 01:31:15,560
Speaker 3: in the Senate could very well doom the entire Republican

1627
01:31:15,600 --> 01:31:18,400
Speaker 3: Party in the midterm elections. Uh, let's go to the

1628
01:31:18,400 --> 01:31:20,800
Speaker 3: phone lines here. Nine oh one two six zero five

1629
01:31:20,960 --> 01:31:25,120
Speaker 3: nine two six. Annadalonaga Georgia listening to us on wd

1630
01:31:25,320 --> 01:31:29,599
Speaker 3: U N Hi Anna, what's on your mind today?

1631
01:31:29,800 --> 01:31:33,960
Speaker 14: Yeah, John, I'm I'm really concerned. I mean, after hearing

1632
01:31:34,000 --> 01:31:37,760
Speaker 14: Alex Stone in its obscenities about the president. But we

1633
01:31:37,840 --> 01:31:43,360
Speaker 14: get right down the bottom of this whole thing. Why

1634
01:31:43,920 --> 01:31:48,320
Speaker 14: why is Obama and why are Obama and Biden not

1635
01:31:48,600 --> 01:31:54,520
Speaker 14: being considered in this mix? They what they did contributed

1636
01:31:54,680 --> 01:31:59,400
Speaker 14: to a lot of the problems we're realizing now. A

1637
01:31:59,560 --> 01:32:03,080
Speaker 14: country of buying for the people, that is the government,

1638
01:32:03,720 --> 01:32:09,640
Speaker 14: but it seems like of buying for the politicians or

1639
01:32:09,640 --> 01:32:15,320
Speaker 14: their political parties Trumps. So I don't use that term loosely,

1640
01:32:15,400 --> 01:32:21,320
Speaker 14: but Trump's everything and no one, no one thinks to care.

1641
01:32:23,600 --> 01:32:27,400
Speaker 14: I'm concerned that our not all of them, but some

1642
01:32:27,479 --> 01:32:31,559
Speaker 14: of our politicians are treated like celebrities. They show up

1643
01:32:31,560 --> 01:32:37,040
Speaker 14: on late night. They don't have any kind of integrity,

1644
01:32:37,080 --> 01:32:41,320
Speaker 14: discipline and none of that, and it's just a big

1645
01:32:41,560 --> 01:32:45,880
Speaker 14: game show to them. And we're hurting out here. You know,

1646
01:32:45,920 --> 01:32:50,040
Speaker 14: we're the ones who have to deal with all these illegals.

1647
01:32:51,320 --> 01:32:53,679
Speaker 14: You know, I remember I came from a long line

1648
01:32:53,720 --> 01:32:57,240
Speaker 14: of Democrats back in the day. I mean, I'm seventy

1649
01:32:57,280 --> 01:33:00,479
Speaker 14: five years old, so it's been a long time. But

1650
01:33:00,880 --> 01:33:05,720
Speaker 14: my you know, my grandparents came here from France and

1651
01:33:06,560 --> 01:33:09,600
Speaker 14: you know they paid their dues. But now people just

1652
01:33:09,720 --> 01:33:12,080
Speaker 14: go through. And I'll tell you the bottom line is

1653
01:33:12,800 --> 01:33:17,280
Speaker 14: Obama and Biden are there are the reasons for this,

1654
01:33:17,960 --> 01:33:21,960
Speaker 14: and they should pay restitutions for this, but they're not.

1655
01:33:22,600 --> 01:33:25,800
Speaker 3: No, no, they're not. And you're right, Anna, and I

1656
01:33:25,800 --> 01:33:29,559
Speaker 3: would even contend that George W. Bush was responsible for

1657
01:33:29,600 --> 01:33:32,200
Speaker 3: a lot of this, got us involved in two wars

1658
01:33:32,240 --> 01:33:35,920
Speaker 3: that we had no business. Well, we had Afghanistan, I

1659
01:33:35,920 --> 01:33:39,200
Speaker 3: can understand, but Iraq, we had no business going in there,

1660
01:33:39,280 --> 01:33:41,960
Speaker 3: and we lost a lot of American treasure as a

1661
01:33:42,000 --> 01:33:45,000
Speaker 3: result of that. And Donald Trump is undoing all of

1662
01:33:45,040 --> 01:33:47,120
Speaker 3: this this damage and a thanks for the call. I'll

1663
01:33:47,160 --> 01:33:49,160
Speaker 3: have more to say about that on the other side

1664
01:33:49,200 --> 01:33:58,760
Speaker 3: of the break. All right, welcome back to the Todd

1677
01:34:41,680 --> 01:34:42,719
Speaker 3: Oh we see under the weather.

1678
01:34:42,920 --> 01:34:45,840
Speaker 15: Yes, I think the pollen and all the stuff falling

1679
01:34:45,840 --> 01:34:46,800
Speaker 15: from the trees has gotten.

1680
01:34:46,920 --> 01:34:50,519
Speaker 3: That pollen is insane. It is you know. I was

1681
01:34:50,520 --> 01:34:53,519
Speaker 3: getting last Saturday. I was getting ready and I had

1682
01:34:53,520 --> 01:34:54,800
Speaker 3: to drop out of the office and I'm like, this

1683
01:34:54,840 --> 01:34:56,519
Speaker 3: is where I wash my car. I don't I like

1684
01:34:56,600 --> 01:34:58,960
Speaker 3: spending money in the car washes, so I wash it

1685
01:34:59,000 --> 01:35:02,960
Speaker 3: here and I worked around the clock. I mean, it

1686
01:35:03,000 --> 01:35:05,480
Speaker 3: took me forty five minutes to get the Cadillac sparkly,

1687
01:35:05,520 --> 01:35:07,799
Speaker 3: you know, because you want to you want to represent

1688
01:35:07,840 --> 01:35:09,559
Speaker 3: the Lord in the church parking lot. You don't want

1689
01:35:09,560 --> 01:35:11,599
Speaker 3: the guys. You know, the deacon's looking at you funny.

1690
01:35:12,160 --> 01:35:15,240
Speaker 3: So anyway, Sunday, whatrding I get it for church? It's

1691
01:35:15,280 --> 01:35:16,400
Speaker 3: covered in pollen again.

1692
01:35:16,760 --> 01:35:18,680
Speaker 15: My wife and I went through the heck, we went

1693
01:35:18,720 --> 01:35:20,840
Speaker 15: to a car wash over the weekend and I literally

1694
01:35:20,840 --> 01:35:22,240
Speaker 15: looked at her and I said, I might as well

1695
01:35:22,320 --> 01:35:24,080
Speaker 15: taken that twelve dollars and lit it on fire.

1696
01:35:24,200 --> 01:35:27,719
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, that's it. That's it all right. Let's

1697
01:35:27,760 --> 01:35:30,800
Speaker 3: talk about investment strategy and a lot of people are

1698
01:35:30,840 --> 01:35:34,439
Speaker 3: maybe even unfamiliar with that term investment strategy. What what

1699
01:35:34,479 --> 01:35:35,240
Speaker 3: do you mean by that?

1700
01:35:35,680 --> 01:35:38,760
Speaker 15: Investment strategy is literally thinking about how do we need

1701
01:35:38,840 --> 01:35:41,760
Speaker 15: to deploy your capital to work for your goals? So

1702
01:35:42,040 --> 01:35:46,120
Speaker 15: is that a combination of growth investments, is it conservative investments?

1703
01:35:46,160 --> 01:35:49,880
Speaker 15: Is it a combination of market based investments and insurance products?

1704
01:35:50,120 --> 01:35:52,320
Speaker 3: So a lot of people, I would have to imagine

1705
01:35:52,320 --> 01:35:54,800
Speaker 3: think one size fits all. You know, is that is

1706
01:35:54,800 --> 01:35:56,479
Speaker 3: that correct? Or is that a big mistake?

1707
01:35:56,560 --> 01:35:58,680
Speaker 15: I would say if it seems like a one se

1708
01:35:58,920 --> 01:36:01,439
Speaker 15: fits all, it's not a good fit for you, because

1709
01:36:01,520 --> 01:36:04,479
Speaker 15: each person is different and your strategy should reflect what

1710
01:36:04,600 --> 01:36:06,479
Speaker 15: your goals are and not be the same as what

1711
01:36:06,520 --> 01:36:07,439
Speaker 15: somebody else's is.

1712
01:36:08,760 --> 01:36:11,320
Speaker 3: Again, folks, by the way, if you have questions, give

1713
01:36:11,400 --> 01:36:13,679
Speaker 3: us a call. Nine oh one two six zero five

1714
01:36:13,760 --> 01:36:17,120
Speaker 3: nine two six nine oh one two six zero five

1715
01:36:17,280 --> 01:36:20,120
Speaker 3: nine two six. So we're putting together an investment strategy.

1716
01:36:20,160 --> 01:36:22,759
Speaker 3: What are some of the common mistakes that you see people,

1717
01:36:23,240 --> 01:36:25,920
Speaker 3: you know, making as they try to go through the procedure.

1718
01:36:26,040 --> 01:36:28,280
Speaker 15: That's a great question, and one of the most common

1719
01:36:28,280 --> 01:36:31,560
Speaker 15: things that we see on a regular basis is somebody's

1720
01:36:31,680 --> 01:36:34,080
Speaker 15: just keeping their foot on the gas. Well beyond the ears,

1721
01:36:34,120 --> 01:36:35,880
Speaker 15: they should be keeping their foot on the gas, and

1722
01:36:35,920 --> 01:36:39,240
Speaker 15: they're too aggressive, or we see some people are just

1723
01:36:39,880 --> 01:36:41,720
Speaker 15: very scared of the market. They don't want to have

1724
01:36:41,760 --> 01:36:44,920
Speaker 15: the risk of a correction and it wipe out what

1725
01:36:44,920 --> 01:36:47,360
Speaker 15: they've saved, so they keep their money invested in like

1726
01:36:47,479 --> 01:36:51,320
Speaker 15: cash or are low yielding investments, and so what are

1727
01:36:51,320 --> 01:36:54,280
Speaker 15: the risks there? The risk is if you're too aggressive

1728
01:36:54,479 --> 01:36:56,720
Speaker 15: and we're not aligned with the timeframe from when you

1729
01:36:56,800 --> 01:36:59,920
Speaker 15: need those dollars, we could see a big market correction

1730
01:37:00,160 --> 01:37:02,519
Speaker 15: and that could be detrimental to the success of your plan.

1731
01:37:02,800 --> 01:37:07,280
Speaker 15: Or if we're two conservative, things like inflation erodes the

1732
01:37:07,320 --> 01:37:10,639
Speaker 15: purchasing power of the dollar, and we need to outpace inflation.

1733
01:37:10,840 --> 01:37:13,439
Speaker 15: So if that numbers three and a half percent, maybe

1734
01:37:13,439 --> 01:37:15,040
Speaker 15: we should be looking at five six percent.

1735
01:37:15,160 --> 01:37:18,640
Speaker 3: So it's talking really it's really about tailoring a you know,

1736
01:37:18,800 --> 01:37:21,800
Speaker 3: whatever your strategy is to to what you are and

1737
01:37:21,840 --> 01:37:23,360
Speaker 3: where you are at in life.

1738
01:37:23,680 --> 01:37:26,840
Speaker 15: Yeah, and I think that's what an advisor or financial professional,

1739
01:37:27,120 --> 01:37:30,560
Speaker 15: you know, provides the most value. There's a lot of misconceptions,

1740
01:37:30,600 --> 01:37:32,599
Speaker 15: you know, they see things like Wolf of Wall Street,

1741
01:37:32,720 --> 01:37:36,080
Speaker 15: or they hear other people talk bad about financial advisors.

1742
01:37:36,080 --> 01:37:38,600
Speaker 15: And what I really want people to understand is the

1743
01:37:38,640 --> 01:37:41,599
Speaker 15: best thing that we can do is build a plan first,

1744
01:37:41,960 --> 01:37:44,400
Speaker 15: and then we develop the investment strategy after that.

1745
01:37:44,400 --> 01:37:47,439
Speaker 3: I'm lifing. I actually I don't know why that movie

1746
01:37:47,640 --> 01:37:50,320
Speaker 3: was on somewhere and I just just the other day

1747
01:37:50,360 --> 01:37:54,080
Speaker 3: and it's such an awful movie, but it is.

1748
01:37:54,320 --> 01:37:54,680
Speaker 2: It is.

1749
01:37:54,760 --> 01:37:57,080
Speaker 15: They're not all good people, No.

1750
01:37:56,560 --> 01:37:59,360
Speaker 3: No, they're not. But but fortunately our friends that Strategic

1751
01:37:59,400 --> 01:38:03,360
Speaker 3: Financial are the good guys. And if you have a question,

1752
01:38:03,439 --> 01:38:05,679
Speaker 3: give us a call nine oh one two six zero

1753
01:38:05,840 --> 01:38:07,479
Speaker 3: five nine two six, even if you don't want to

1754
01:38:07,520 --> 01:38:10,320
Speaker 3: come on air, we'll take your question off air and

1755
01:38:10,600 --> 01:38:12,800
Speaker 3: we'll make sure the guys reach out to you. You know,

1756
01:38:12,840 --> 01:38:14,960
Speaker 3: a lot of people I think in our audience has

1757
01:38:15,080 --> 01:38:17,320
Speaker 3: maybe a four to zer one k or an ira

1758
01:38:18,960 --> 01:38:22,360
Speaker 3: from maybe an old job, and there's really no plan

1759
01:38:22,400 --> 01:38:25,160
Speaker 3: to tie it together because some people may have multiple

1760
01:38:25,200 --> 01:38:28,439
Speaker 3: plans out there. What should they do? What advice do

1761
01:38:28,479 --> 01:38:29,320
Speaker 3: you give those folks?

1762
01:38:29,520 --> 01:38:31,479
Speaker 15: Well, I would say if you're somebody who's in that

1763
01:38:31,560 --> 01:38:33,920
Speaker 15: position where you know you had a retirement plan at

1764
01:38:33,960 --> 01:38:36,519
Speaker 15: a previous employer and you're working at a new place

1765
01:38:36,520 --> 01:38:39,360
Speaker 15: and contributing to the new plan, You've.

1766
01:38:39,160 --> 01:38:40,240
Speaker 3: Got a couple options.

1767
01:38:40,439 --> 01:38:43,040
Speaker 15: And it could be let's move the old four h

1768
01:38:43,120 --> 01:38:45,880
Speaker 15: one k to an IRA, which is an individual retirement

1769
01:38:45,920 --> 01:38:48,920
Speaker 15: account which has got what we call open architecture, so

1770
01:38:49,400 --> 01:38:52,400
Speaker 15: the investment universe is wide open, and we sit down

1771
01:38:52,439 --> 01:38:54,280
Speaker 15: and ask you how you want to be allocated and

1772
01:38:54,280 --> 01:38:56,800
Speaker 15: come up with an investment strategy. Or it could be

1773
01:38:56,880 --> 01:39:01,240
Speaker 15: simply as if your new employer plan offersovers, you can

1774
01:39:01,280 --> 01:39:04,880
Speaker 15: move it into your new employer plan. So I always say,

1775
01:39:04,960 --> 01:39:07,479
Speaker 15: when you make a career change or a big life event,

1776
01:39:07,560 --> 01:39:09,840
Speaker 15: happens just like when you go see your doctor, you

1777
01:39:09,880 --> 01:39:12,680
Speaker 15: go see a dentist, go see your financial professional and

1778
01:39:12,720 --> 01:39:15,400
Speaker 15: see does this apply to me and what are my options.

1779
01:39:15,479 --> 01:39:17,920
Speaker 3: We had last night on the show my good friend

1780
01:39:17,920 --> 01:39:21,200
Speaker 3: Tracy Burns, she was at Fox Business forever and she

1781
01:39:21,280 --> 01:39:24,280
Speaker 3: has a brand new book out called Deduct Everything. You're

1782
01:39:24,280 --> 01:39:27,960
Speaker 3: talking about your taxes, and we were and she said

1783
01:39:28,080 --> 01:39:31,400
Speaker 3: it's important for people to reach out to a professional expert.

1784
01:39:31,479 --> 01:39:34,519
Speaker 3: I'm getting around to the point here, but that because,

1785
01:39:34,560 --> 01:39:36,800
Speaker 3: for example, she said, a lot of people may not

1786
01:39:36,840 --> 01:39:39,960
Speaker 3: be aware, but last year, if you purchased a brand

1787
01:39:39,960 --> 01:39:44,240
Speaker 3: new car, an American made car, you can actually deduct

1788
01:39:44,280 --> 01:39:47,160
Speaker 3: a huge chunk of the of the price of that car.

1789
01:39:47,560 --> 01:39:50,400
Speaker 3: Many people may not be aware of that. So again,

1790
01:39:50,439 --> 01:39:53,640
Speaker 3: that's why it's important to reach out to professionals like

1791
01:39:54,120 --> 01:39:55,960
Speaker 3: you guys that strategic financial partner.

1792
01:39:56,080 --> 01:39:58,360
Speaker 15: And one of the things that we recommend the most

1793
01:39:58,640 --> 01:40:01,559
Speaker 15: is to go and see your because we know in

1794
01:40:01,600 --> 01:40:05,160
Speaker 15: the investments, the investment world, and we know enough about

1795
01:40:05,200 --> 01:40:07,760
Speaker 15: the taxes to be dangerous. We always defer go see

1796
01:40:07,800 --> 01:40:10,040
Speaker 15: your CPA because that's what they specialize in.

1797
01:40:10,200 --> 01:40:10,360
Speaker 5: You know.

1798
01:40:10,360 --> 01:40:12,679
Speaker 15: You wouldn't go to a podiatrist to ask about your heart,

1799
01:40:12,880 --> 01:40:15,640
Speaker 15: you know, and that's why we have certain specialties.

1800
01:40:15,840 --> 01:40:20,400
Speaker 3: Well, that's a it's a great point when you know

1801
01:40:20,560 --> 01:40:22,800
Speaker 3: to that. We were talking with Tracy, and she also

1802
01:40:22,840 --> 01:40:26,040
Speaker 3: made another interesting point. For example, when they say no

1803
01:40:26,120 --> 01:40:28,280
Speaker 3: tax on tips, everybody thinks, oh great, I don't have

1804
01:40:28,360 --> 01:40:32,200
Speaker 3: to declare my tips. No, you do. You can deduct them,

1805
01:40:32,200 --> 01:40:34,680
Speaker 3: but you still have to declare. So she said that

1806
01:40:34,680 --> 01:40:37,479
Speaker 3: there's just so much, you know, so much information, which

1807
01:40:37,520 --> 01:40:41,000
Speaker 3: again is why it's so important for for all of

1808
01:40:41,080 --> 01:40:44,320
Speaker 3: us to go and get get help, and we need advice,

1809
01:40:44,439 --> 01:40:47,400
Speaker 3: which is why Adam is here, uh and Chris are

1810
01:40:47,439 --> 01:40:50,759
Speaker 3: here every Wednesday. You know, I want to talk about

1811
01:40:51,080 --> 01:40:54,880
Speaker 3: risk tolerance. There's a great other horrible movie people. Well

1812
01:40:55,320 --> 01:40:59,000
Speaker 3: the kids should not watch Casino. Remember Casino Casino? Oh

1813
01:40:59,040 --> 01:41:01,280
Speaker 3: my gosh, remember this. There's a scene to move with Joe.

1814
01:41:01,280 --> 01:41:04,840
Speaker 3: Pashi decides to go to the bank and the bank

1815
01:41:04,880 --> 01:41:07,000
Speaker 3: guy was like, well, you know, there may be some

1816
01:41:07,160 --> 01:41:10,880
Speaker 3: risk here, and Paschi was like, I better not lose anybody. Yeah,

1817
01:41:10,920 --> 01:41:13,680
Speaker 3: you know, but a lot of people are afraid. You know.

1818
01:41:13,800 --> 01:41:15,880
Speaker 3: That's a big thing is you know there may be

1819
01:41:15,920 --> 01:41:17,240
Speaker 3: are risk intolerance.

1820
01:41:17,360 --> 01:41:20,320
Speaker 15: That's right, and that's why we always when I say

1821
01:41:20,360 --> 01:41:22,639
Speaker 15: we build a plan first and then we figure out

1822
01:41:22,640 --> 01:41:26,200
Speaker 15: the investment piece. Second is in our conversations, we're gonna

1823
01:41:26,200 --> 01:41:28,599
Speaker 15: ask you about what do you want to do in

1824
01:41:28,640 --> 01:41:31,920
Speaker 15: retirement or what are we saving these dollars for? And

1825
01:41:32,000 --> 01:41:35,240
Speaker 15: what is that timeline? That timeline is the most important

1826
01:41:35,280 --> 01:41:38,320
Speaker 15: piece because we have to know when we need to

1827
01:41:38,320 --> 01:41:41,400
Speaker 15: scale back the risk to avoid a sell off, and

1828
01:41:41,439 --> 01:41:43,519
Speaker 15: we lose a lot of what we saved for. So

1829
01:41:44,280 --> 01:41:47,599
Speaker 15: that conversation helps us build the foundation for your plan,

1830
01:41:47,800 --> 01:41:50,160
Speaker 15: and then we put an investment strategy in place that

1831
01:41:50,280 --> 01:41:52,920
Speaker 15: matches what you're trying to accomplish, so that whole one

1832
01:41:52,960 --> 01:41:56,160
Speaker 15: size fits all. It can't be possible if we're talking

1833
01:41:56,200 --> 01:41:59,080
Speaker 15: to ten different people, because it's like a game of telephone.

1834
01:41:59,439 --> 01:42:01,479
Speaker 15: It starts with one thing and it ends with a

1835
01:42:01,479 --> 01:42:04,360
Speaker 15: totally different thing. So ten different people, they're gonna have

1836
01:42:04,400 --> 01:42:05,960
Speaker 15: ten different salts that we need to come up.

1837
01:42:06,120 --> 01:42:08,320
Speaker 3: How often should you you know, go back and look

1838
01:42:08,360 --> 01:42:11,559
Speaker 3: at things or maybe you know, adjust what your strategy is.

1839
01:42:11,680 --> 01:42:14,080
Speaker 15: Well, just like the tax we were talking about earlier,

1840
01:42:14,200 --> 01:42:16,799
Speaker 15: every year, same time of year, it's the tax deadline,

1841
01:42:16,840 --> 01:42:18,880
Speaker 15: it's the time to go to your CPA. Think about

1842
01:42:18,920 --> 01:42:21,960
Speaker 15: it the same way with your financial advisor. No doubt,

1843
01:42:22,080 --> 01:42:24,040
Speaker 15: every year this time of year, I'm gonna go and

1844
01:42:24,080 --> 01:42:26,160
Speaker 15: talk to him, regardless if you have anything to talk

1845
01:42:26,160 --> 01:42:26,600
Speaker 15: about or.

1846
01:42:26,600 --> 01:42:28,599
Speaker 3: Not, we will. We will go over.

1847
01:42:28,479 --> 01:42:31,040
Speaker 15: And say this is how you performed over the last year,

1848
01:42:31,400 --> 01:42:33,759
Speaker 15: this is what you incurred in the way of fees,

1849
01:42:34,560 --> 01:42:37,360
Speaker 15: and if there's any pressing things that we see just

1850
01:42:37,400 --> 01:42:40,840
Speaker 15: from the market standpoint, we may say, hey, you're getting

1851
01:42:40,880 --> 01:42:43,439
Speaker 15: five years away from that retirement date. I think now

1852
01:42:43,520 --> 01:42:46,080
Speaker 15: would be a good time to transition from being aggressive

1853
01:42:46,240 --> 01:42:49,280
Speaker 15: to being more moderate or moderate conservative, just so that

1854
01:42:49,320 --> 01:42:51,439
Speaker 15: we add a layer of downside protection.

1855
01:42:51,920 --> 01:42:56,160
Speaker 3: Adam Martin is a financial advisor with Strategic Financial Partners.

1856

1857
01:43:00,120 --> 01:43:02,960
Speaker 3: Our number nine oh one two six zero five nine

1858
01:43:03,080 --> 01:43:05,840
Speaker 3: two six. That's nine oh one two six zero five

1859
01:43:05,960 --> 01:43:09,160
Speaker 3: nine two six. Somebody's probably right now at lunch and

1860
01:43:09,280 --> 01:43:12,440
Speaker 3: they're poach Angles, WAA Burger. I don't know great restaurants,

1861
01:43:12,640 --> 01:43:15,559
Speaker 3: and they're thinking, you know, I don't have a strategy here,

1862
01:43:15,640 --> 01:43:17,040
Speaker 3: I just have accounts.

1863
01:43:17,600 --> 01:43:22,799
Speaker 15: Yeah, that's unfortunately more common than most, and that's okay.

1864
01:43:23,080 --> 01:43:25,599
Speaker 15: Having accounts is a good problem to have, and it's

1865
01:43:25,640 --> 01:43:28,320
Speaker 15: not too late. Go speak with somebody, whether it's us

1866
01:43:28,479 --> 01:43:30,680
Speaker 15: or whether it's a professional in your area that you're

1867
01:43:30,720 --> 01:43:33,920
Speaker 15: close to or you know about. Just get organized. That's

1868
01:43:33,920 --> 01:43:35,840
Speaker 15: what it all boils down to is have a plan.

1869
01:43:35,960 --> 01:43:39,160
Speaker 15: Because when we see volatility like we have here recently,

1870
01:43:39,200 --> 01:43:40,840
Speaker 15: I mean the markets have had a little bit of

1871
01:43:40,840 --> 01:43:44,160
Speaker 15: turbulence lately, it's those people that just have the accounts

1872
01:43:44,160 --> 01:43:47,439
Speaker 15: that are panicking. It's saying sales, sales sell, instead of hey,

1873
01:43:47,520 --> 01:43:49,920
Speaker 15: I have a plan we talked about we would see

1874
01:43:49,920 --> 01:43:52,920
Speaker 15: some turbulence like this and let's just hold let's hold

1875
01:43:52,920 --> 01:43:55,679
Speaker 15: the line because what goes down goes back up. Those

1876
01:43:55,720 --> 01:44:00,320
Speaker 15: people have more of a tranquil vibe to a whenever

1877
01:44:00,360 --> 01:44:03,840
Speaker 15: it comes to their their finances because they planned proactively.

1878
01:44:04,120 --> 01:44:07,479
Speaker 3: I love that. And again, Strategic Financial Partners dot com,

1884
01:44:16,520 --> 01:44:18,479
Speaker 15: you know, what we have to do. So if that's

1885
01:44:18,600 --> 01:44:21,120
Speaker 15: just investing, we could get a securities license. If it's

1886
01:44:21,160 --> 01:44:23,160
Speaker 15: an insurance solve, we can get an insurance license. But

1887
01:44:23,680 --> 01:44:26,120
Speaker 15: that's while we're here, Todd, I want to help as

1888

Speaker 3: All right, Adam, good to see you, my friend, seeing you.

1898
01:44:56,160 --> 01:44:57,200
Speaker 3: How are your bractets?

1899
01:44:57,560 --> 01:44:59,679
Speaker 15: I didn't even fill one out. I'm a Memphis Tiger fan.

1900
01:44:59,720 --> 01:45:00,400
Speaker 3: We were in it.

1901
01:45:00,439 --> 01:45:02,879
Speaker 15: So I had no involvement in the Cuba tournament.

1902
01:45:03,360 --> 01:45:04,760
Speaker 3: Tennessee Evalls fan right here.

1903
01:45:05,200 --> 01:45:08,080
Speaker 15: Well, they I fortunately didn't make it to the final

01:45:08,120 --> 01:45:09,639
Speaker 15: four yet again, and I'm sorry.

1905
01:45:09,720 --> 01:45:13,960
Speaker 3: It's unfortunate. It's unfortunate. Thank you for that, Adam.

1906
01:45:14,080 --> 01:45:15,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, my condolences.

1907
01:45:15,320 --> 01:45:30,160
Speaker 3: All right, we'll be right back. All right, Welcome back, everybody.

1908
01:45:30,240 --> 01:45:33,760
Speaker 3: This is the Tom Searns Radio Show. By the way,

1909
01:45:34,560 --> 01:45:39,280
Speaker 3: California gave a news scum man are they? You know,

1910
01:45:39,360 --> 01:45:42,000
Speaker 3: if you think the fraud is bad in Minneapolis, what's

1911
01:45:42,040 --> 01:45:46,120
Speaker 3: happening in California. They haven't even begun to really do

1912
01:45:46,200 --> 01:45:48,080
Speaker 3: a deep dive into the maount of fraud. But I

1913
01:45:48,120 --> 01:45:50,519
Speaker 3: want you to listen to this Fox News report. So

1914
01:45:50,560 --> 01:45:56,599
Speaker 3: they found out that just one building allegedly housed nearly

1915
01:45:56,680 --> 01:46:00,800
Speaker 3: two hundred hospice and healthcare companies. You can't make this up.

1916
01:46:00,840 --> 01:46:01,400
Speaker 3: Take a listen.

1917
01:46:01,720 --> 01:46:04,439
Speaker 15: The building looks like that supposedly houses one hundred and

1918
01:46:04,520 --> 01:46:07,719
Speaker 15: ninety seven different hospice and healthcare companies.

1919
01:46:07,880 --> 01:46:13,599
Speaker 7: That's California lawmaker Ali Mercedo, investigating suspected hospice fraud in La.

1920
01:46:13,720 --> 01:46:16,920
Speaker 3: I did not see a single person coming in.

1921
01:46:16,880 --> 01:46:17,679
Speaker 2: Or out of the building.

1922
01:46:17,840 --> 01:46:21,680
Speaker 7: Neither did we in January on some offices, but no

1923
01:46:21,800 --> 01:46:26,280
Speaker 7: people three floors, no employees or patients. Yet, look at

1924
01:46:26,320 --> 01:46:29,720
Speaker 7: the dozens of providers licensed at this one address. Five

1925
01:46:29,800 --> 01:46:33,200
Speaker 7: years ago, state auditors flagged this location for potential fraud.

1926
01:46:33,520 --> 01:46:36,400
Speaker 7: They say they found non working phones, locked doors, and

1927
01:46:36,520 --> 01:46:37,920
Speaker 7: stolen Medicare numbers.

1928
01:46:38,120 --> 01:46:42,320
Speaker 12: In La County, California, eighty nine hospice companies are registered

1929
01:46:42,320 --> 01:46:43,880
Speaker 12: to a single address.

1930
01:46:44,280 --> 01:46:48,479
Speaker 7: Republican lawmakers on Capitol Hill say California's week oversight help

1931
01:46:48,520 --> 01:46:53,160
Speaker 7: perpetuate fraud, a charged Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom denies.

1932
01:46:53,080 --> 01:46:56,040
Speaker 15: We've been very aggressive as it relates to going after

1933
01:46:56,080 --> 01:46:56,920
Speaker 15: the fraud and abuse.

1934
01:46:57,000 --> 01:47:01,520
Speaker 7: He also says hospice fraud involving Medicare under federal jurisdiction.

1935
01:47:02,280 --> 01:47:07,200
Speaker 7: That's misleading state losses. California is responsible for licensing, inspecting,

1936
01:47:07,240 --> 01:47:12,440
Speaker 7: and investigating hospice complaints and can deny, suspend, or evoke licenses.

1937
01:47:12,600 --> 01:47:15,320
Speaker 12: This problem is on his hands, and he's refusing to

1938
01:47:15,360 --> 01:47:17,559
Speaker 12: put in rules and regulations.

1939
01:47:16,960 --> 01:47:21,160
Speaker 7: The lawmakers mandated take effect by January this year, including

1940
01:47:21,360 --> 01:47:25,160
Speaker 7: better background checks, a ban on multiple hospices sharing a

1941
01:47:25,200 --> 01:47:29,439
Speaker 7: single office, more comprehensive on site inspections, and face to

1942
01:47:29,520 --> 01:47:33,120
Speaker 7: face meetings before awarding a license. We asked you some

1943
01:47:33,200 --> 01:47:35,640
Speaker 7: why his administration missed the deadline.

1944
01:47:35,840 --> 01:47:38,320
Speaker 2: We've elimited over two hundred and eighty licenses.

1945
01:47:38,320 --> 01:47:40,639
Speaker 3: We've been on this since late twenty twenty one.

1946
01:47:41,600 --> 01:47:43,639
Speaker 7: So what he governor does not say is the sweeping

1947
01:47:43,680 --> 01:47:46,640
Speaker 7: reforms that auditors want have largely not been imposed. And

1948
01:47:46,800 --> 01:47:51,880
Speaker 7: La County still has fifteen hundred more hospices Dana than

1949
01:47:51,920 --> 01:47:54,800
Speaker 7: New York and Florida combined, including five hundred and three

1950
01:47:54,840 --> 01:47:58,000
Speaker 7: mile rates. Makes no sense, and they're billing medicare double

1951
01:47:58,200 --> 01:47:59,160
Speaker 7: the national average.

1952
01:47:59,520 --> 01:48:02,960
Speaker 3: There you go, and this is the fraud that folks. Again,

1953
01:48:03,280 --> 01:48:05,240
Speaker 3: we have got to get a handle on this, and

1954
01:48:05,280 --> 01:48:08,240
Speaker 3: if we do, you're gonna heck, we may not. We

1955
01:48:08,320 --> 01:48:11,200
Speaker 3: may now even have to have an income tax if

1956
01:48:11,200 --> 01:48:14,519
Speaker 3: we can, If we can expose all of the fraud. Dylan,

1957
01:48:14,520 --> 01:48:17,599
Speaker 3: and I want to do another trivia question. Ooh, this

1958
01:48:17,680 --> 01:48:18,400
Speaker 3: is a tough one.

1959
01:48:19,360 --> 01:48:21,160
Speaker 4: I'm ready. The last one was tough for me.

1960
01:48:21,160 --> 01:48:23,880
Speaker 3: Here it was tough. Can you name the very first

1961
01:48:24,080 --> 01:48:27,880
Speaker 3: sitting president to attend an oral argument at the U. S.

1962
01:48:27,880 --> 01:48:30,200
Speaker 3: Supreme Court? You know President Trump was there earlier today.

1963
01:48:30,520 --> 01:48:34,320
Speaker 3: Can you name the first sitting president to attend an

1964
01:48:34,479 --> 01:48:36,920
Speaker 3: oral argument at the US Supreme Court?

1965
01:48:37,320 --> 01:48:38,640
Speaker 4: Are you going to give options for this one?

1966
01:48:38,680 --> 01:48:42,280
Speaker 17: This is no no, okay? Are you telling me a

1967
01:48:42,320 --> 01:48:43,519
Speaker 17: lot of people know this answer?

1968
01:48:43,760 --> 01:48:47,040
Speaker 3: They should nine oh one two six zero five nine

1969
01:48:47,080 --> 01:48:49,400
Speaker 3: two six. If you know the answer, the first sitting

Speaker 3: Supreme Court? That's nine oh one two six zero five

1973
01:49:05,479 --> 01:49:05,919
Speaker 4: Keyboard?

1974
01:49:05,960 --> 01:49:09,120
Speaker 3: You mean, well, they were called typewriters and they weren't

1975
01:49:09,120 --> 01:49:12,040
Speaker 3: attached to a computer back back when I was in school.

1976
01:49:13,439 --> 01:49:15,559
Speaker 3: You actually had to take a typing class.

1977
01:49:16,520 --> 01:49:18,120
Speaker 4: Sound and it's like a vintage thing.

1978
01:49:19,720 --> 01:49:19,960
Speaker 10: Yeah.

1979
01:49:20,040 --> 01:49:25,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, So an Ivy League teacher is at Cornell University

1980
01:49:26,000 --> 01:49:33,360
Speaker 3: is now making students heck away at manual typewriters. This

1981
01:49:33,560 --> 01:49:37,760
Speaker 3: is great. Uh, this no screens, no online dictionaries, no

1982
01:49:37,920 --> 01:49:40,479
Speaker 3: spell check, no tlete keys. And you know why she's

1983
01:49:40,520 --> 01:49:44,760
Speaker 3: doing that to fight against AI, the AI work. You

1984
01:49:44,800 --> 01:49:49,479
Speaker 3: know the chant GPT interesting. That's why it's it's it's

1985
01:49:49,520 --> 01:49:52,200
Speaker 3: a brilliant strategy.

1986
01:49:51,280 --> 01:49:51,599
Speaker 4: I guess.

1987
01:49:51,680 --> 01:49:51,760
Speaker 2: So.

1988
01:49:52,160 --> 01:49:54,400
Speaker 17: You know, it's funny they actually make keyboards now that

1989
01:49:54,520 --> 01:49:56,360
Speaker 17: sound like typewriters.

1990
01:49:55,600 --> 01:50:03,440
Speaker 3: That's terrible, all right. Professor Matthias Phelps, a German language instructor,

1991
01:50:04,040 --> 01:50:07,760
Speaker 3: started this in twenty twenty three. Twenty twenty three, frustrated

1992
01:50:08,280 --> 01:50:11,719
Speaker 3: by the fact that students were using AI and online

1993
01:50:11,760 --> 01:50:18,799
Speaker 3: translation platforms to turn out grammatically perfect assignments and so anyway,

1994
01:50:18,840 --> 01:50:22,160
Speaker 3: the professor said she wanted students to understand what writing, thinking,

1995
01:50:22,200 --> 01:50:25,439
Speaker 3: and classrooms were like before everything turned digital. I love

1996
01:50:25,479 --> 01:50:30,719
Speaker 3: this idea. They're calling it an analog assignment. That's brilliant.

1997
01:50:31,280 --> 01:50:35,320
Speaker 3: All right. Let's go to the phone lines here. Let's

1998
01:50:35,520 --> 01:50:39,000
Speaker 3: go to John in Georgia, which is like our trivia

1999
01:50:39,080 --> 01:50:43,080
Speaker 3: capital of the show. John. How are you today?

2000
01:50:43,439 --> 01:50:43,799
Speaker 13: Great?

2001
01:50:43,840 --> 01:50:45,080
Speaker 5: God, you're great American?

2002
01:50:45,160 --> 01:50:46,160
Speaker 4: They do well.

2003
01:50:46,160 --> 01:50:49,559
Speaker 3: Thank you very much for that. I appreciate that. We're

2004
01:50:49,560 --> 01:50:51,000
Speaker 3: going to try to see if you can't win a

2005
01:50:51,040 --> 01:50:55,000
Speaker 3: prize here, can you tell us the very first president

2006
01:50:55,000 --> 01:50:58,680
Speaker 3: in American history to attend an oral argument at the

2007
01:50:58,720 --> 01:50:59,599
Speaker 3: US Supreme Court.

2008
01:51:01,439 --> 01:51:03,280
Speaker 6: I think that would be Donald Trump.

2009
01:51:08,760 --> 01:51:13,519
Speaker 3: Uh, yes, you are correct, Sean. Did you have to

2010
01:51:13,560 --> 01:51:15,920
Speaker 3: look that one up or did you know that, John?

2011
01:51:17,240 --> 01:51:19,439
Speaker 6: Well, I've been hearing it all day that he was

2012
01:51:19,479 --> 01:51:20,200
Speaker 6: the first one.

2013
01:51:20,280 --> 01:51:25,439
Speaker 3: So that's right, Donald Trump making American history today, became

2014
01:51:25,520 --> 01:51:29,080
Speaker 3: the first sitting president to attend an oral argument at

2015
01:51:29,080 --> 01:51:34,080
Speaker 3: the US Supreme Court. No April fools joke. How about

2016
01:51:34,080 --> 01:51:36,240
Speaker 3: that sat there on the front row.

2017
01:51:37,760 --> 01:51:38,599
Speaker 8: That's pretty cool.

2018
01:51:38,960 --> 01:51:40,640
Speaker 3: All right, John, We're going to hook you up with

2023

Speaker 17: your show. I feel like you've said it at least
