1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:01,640 Speaker 1: Do you want to be an American? 2 00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:05,760 Speaker 2: He's got flown back on seven hundred, Well, would just 3 00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:08,799 Speaker 2: jump right back into it. Man over the fence, over 4 00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:12,959 Speaker 2: the wall, as they say. City council members are pretty 5 00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:16,520 Speaker 2: tight lipped about taking sides regarding the city manager's decision 6 00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:20,840 Speaker 2: AKA after Perevol's decision a place chiefs Thiji on leave. 7 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 2: We heard from Ken Kober immediately following yesterday's press conference 8 00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 2: with Steve im at the Finny Law fram who is 9 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 2: representing Chief Thiji in this whole situation. He came on 10 00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:34,280 Speaker 2: my show live on seven hundred Wow, and his immediate 11 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 2: reaction to this thing was like, listen, there's many in 12 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 2: the rank and file weren't necessarily Teresa Thigi fans, but 13 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 2: guess what we all are now because what happened to her, 14 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 2: that she's being railroaded out of her job and being 15 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 2: called this this is nothing but politics, and she's a 16 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:52,480 Speaker 2: political scapegoat, and finding out on her thirty fifth anniversary 17 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 2: of or hire as a new cop and now the 18 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 2: chief of Cincinnati, the first woman to do that long 19 00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 2: history of service for her family, as an insult to 20 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 2: the badge and salt to the whole process and what's 21 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,680 Speaker 2: interesting about this after the followed very very few. And that's, 22 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:09,040 Speaker 2: by the way, I may say, not serving all of them, 23 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 2: but the only one to voice an opinion on counsel 24 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 2: and this whole thing joins me now and that is 25 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:20,680 Speaker 2: Seth Wall Seth, good morning. I'm doing well, but I'm 26 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,040 Speaker 2: also probably doing better than you right now. I can't 27 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,679 Speaker 2: imagine what you woke up this morning and went in 28 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:27,559 Speaker 2: the seconds where the cobwebs are there, they go away. 29 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 2: The first thing you probably thought of is is this 30 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 2: dumpster fire? 31 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 3: It's been It's been quite a week of chaos and 32 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 3: hectic and yeah, it's been. It's been a week, Scott, 33 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 3: and not the best week that we've had in Entity council. 34 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:44,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, is Terry Thiji the problem? 35 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 3: You know, I think the problem with that question, Scott 36 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 3: is how do we know that they're not telling you anything, 37 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 3: They're not telling me anything. None of us know why 38 00:01:56,480 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 3: this decision is being made. So Iss, she's the problem. 39 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 3: I'm waiting for the evidence to be shown to us. 40 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 2: But in people, so wow, this is you know, it's 41 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 2: share a long because the way it works is the chiefs, 42 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 2: the chiefs administrators, they all report to city manager share along. 43 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 2: So this is Cheryl's but again she's just the executioner, right, 44 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,639 Speaker 2: This is the mayor. This is af tad pirrival. This 45 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 2: isn't Sheryl Long. She is a subordinate and she's doing 46 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 2: what she I don't know what she is commanded to do, 47 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 2: I suppose, or I don't know. Is Cherylong run the 48 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 2: whole thing? Either way, it's a horrible look for the mayor, 49 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 2: especially with an election coming up in a couple of weeks. 50 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 3: Well, I think it's a bad look for the city 51 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 3: as a whole. You know, from everything that I've been told, 52 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 3: which is pretty much what you see in the media. 53 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 3: I mean, this seems to be a decision made by 54 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,639 Speaker 3: Cheryl Long, and I think that leads to a lot 55 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 3: of questions about the fact that the police chief, at 56 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,640 Speaker 3: the end of the day, is a very important decision, 57 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 3: especially when we are trying to get crime under control 58 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 3: in our downtown or over the Rhine and in these 59 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 3: neighborhoods were seeing spice and crime in It is a 60 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 3: very very important decision to change the police chief, no 61 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 3: matter when you're changing the police chief, but to change 62 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 3: it in such a chaotic tactic fashion with no clear plan, 63 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 3: no clear evidence about why the decision is being made. 64 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 3: That is a massive problem, and it is I think 65 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 3: it's I think Ken was spot on. I imagine this 66 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,359 Speaker 3: is terrible from hero out for the police Department, because 67 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 3: you know, even if it's not a situation of a scapegoat, 68 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 3: it sure feels that way. And it's a situation that 69 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:29,919 Speaker 3: we need to be providing stability right now. We need 70 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:31,639 Speaker 3: to be showing leadership and we need to put in 71 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 3: our plan for because the most important thing is public safety, 72 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 3: not personality conflict. 73 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 2: Since Walshaw, immediately following the press conference yesterday with Steve Vam, 74 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 2: who did a great job, by the way, I spoke 75 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 2: to Ken Cobra, President the FFP live on the show, 76 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 2: and that was one of the questions I had to him. 77 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 2: It's like, we just spent what kramerting four and a 78 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 2: half million dollars with Kramerting, Jefferies, yourself and others voting 79 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 2: to fund the police department. We got to get more 80 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 2: bodies and we got to recruit. We're down one hundred 81 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 2: and thirty one hundred and fifty officers. Can't have that. 82 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 2: We've got have lateral recruiting class We're going to pull 83 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 2: officers from other jurisdictions and make an appeal to them 84 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 2: with money and the job at hand, to come to 85 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 2: Cincinnati and work here and work for a district and 86 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 2: make a difference in crime, make some money yourself and 87 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 2: all that. That's all well and good. Four and a 88 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 2: half million dollars does in this whole move undermine that, 89 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,239 Speaker 2: because if I'm a officer, if I'm a beat cup, 90 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 2: and let's say I don't know I work in a jurisdiction, 91 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 2: I'm maybe considering making the move over to Cincinnati go 92 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 2: a whole On second, look, they look how dirty they 93 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 2: just did the chief, and that's a chief. I'm nobody. 94 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 2: What chance do I have? So did we just shoot 95 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 2: ourselves in the foot? We opened the coffers up to 96 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 2: four and a half mil. But at the same time 97 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 2: send the message out that we don't know what we're 98 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 2: doing over here, and we'll make you escapegoat politically if 99 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 2: we have to. 100 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 3: Well, that's where my concern comes in in terms of 101 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 3: there's a lot of concern I have here. But yes, 102 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 3: when we're talking about our law enforcement members, not only 103 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:02,600 Speaker 3: the morale of existing police rale of those we're trying 104 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,600 Speaker 3: to hire, but is that plan even heading forward the 105 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 3: five and a half five point four million dollars we 106 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 3: just allocated, Like, what is the plan for that now? 107 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 3: Because it was moving forward under the last police chief 108 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 3: who's currently on administrative lease. It's not That's what That's 109 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 3: my frustration where I'm most upset right now is we 110 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 3: are trying to get crime under control in the city 111 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 3: of Cincinnati. It is not clear the stability in the 112 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 3: past for that because nothing's been laid out to us 113 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 3: other than this hectic process that we've all watched play 114 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 3: out of the media. We've named an interim police chief 115 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 3: who by all accounts is an amazing individual and going 116 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 3: to be a great leader for the department. But it's 117 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 3: not clear what the transition is and what's carrying on 118 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 3: and what the problem even was in the first place. 119 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 3: But let's just change. So how can you and I 120 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 3: even confidently say we know what's happening next? You know, 121 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 3: is all the plans we've done for the last two 122 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 3: months drown out the window and we're starting fresh or 123 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 3: are we continuing it? And if we're continuing it, how 124 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,720 Speaker 3: are we going to provide the confidence people that that's 125 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,280 Speaker 3: what's happening. I don't know, and that is not an 126 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 3: acceptable answer for somebody who's city on Tony calnpamil give you, 127 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 3: And it's not an accept able answer for the city 128 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 3: manager to give us that as the solution right now 129 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 3: is that we don't have enough information to even answer 130 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,479 Speaker 3: that question. So yeah, I'm very worried about that. 131 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:12,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, and as I understand, I don't know any but 132 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 2: I understand from the rank and file many they respect him. 133 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 2: They love the guy. I mean, he's the guy that 134 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 2: wrote that citation a month later or charged anyway, the 135 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,159 Speaker 2: white guy in the brawl, because that was at the 136 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 2: behest of the rabid reverence out there who demanded a 137 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 2: flash demanded of Whitey be charged because he got black 138 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 2: guys who were an assault and no officer on the 139 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 2: scene would write it because they didn't think a crime 140 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 2: was committed. But he took essentially the political bullet and said, okay, final, 141 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 2: I'll be the one that puts my name to this, 142 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,720 Speaker 2: this thing that got that ball rolling. And that was 143 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,479 Speaker 2: all the behest of the mayor's office. So that's greasy 144 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,119 Speaker 2: and dirty as well, because that is a potential civil 145 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 2: rights violation, which you know, again, when you're fighting to 146 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 2: keep your nose above water like Afta puribals and keep 147 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 2: his political career going, that seems like a pretty big 148 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 2: misstep to me. You open yourself up for a civil 149 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 2: rights case. But I don't know, does they only care 150 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,840 Speaker 2: about this election coming up and damn the torpedoes. We'll 151 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 2: see what happens after that. 152 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 3: You know, again, I don't know. From everything I've heard, 153 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 3: it doesn't sound like this was the mayor's decision, which 154 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 3: I know is you know, we think the way the 155 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 3: city government works, that this would be the marrior's decision. 156 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 3: This is legally and technically the city manager's decision. And 157 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 3: everything that I've heard behind the scenes, which again it's 158 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 3: not much more than what you've heard, does not sound 159 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 3: like the mayor's the one who made the decision on this. 160 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 3: It sounds like the mayor may have been aware of 161 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 3: conversations transpiring behind the scenes which led to comments last week, 162 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 3: But beyond that, I don't have anything to indicate that 163 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 3: a have to have was the one who made the decision. 164 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 2: Ultimately, well, there was a political component to this, There's 165 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 2: no question about it. This wasn't a criminal charge. This 166 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 2: was a political charge. 167 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I think that that's one of the 168 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 3: big questions. Why does this decision made? Right now? What 169 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 3: was the urgency that required this decision to be made 170 00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 3: so quickly that the police chief had a flyback from Colorada? 171 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 3: And I've asked that question. I don't have a satisfactory 172 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 3: answer to it, right, And it seems like there was again, 173 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 3: I mean, it's chaos, and it seems like chaos reigned 174 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 3: for thirty six hours at city Hall and bad decisions 175 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 3: were made and that's not okay and that's not acceptable, 176 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 3: and that's the big problem here. Some people need to 177 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 3: come out and say what actually happened and led to 178 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 3: this and why this decision was made. You know, this 179 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 3: is a really big decision, and the absence of information 180 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 3: leads to rampant speculation that is not good for anybody. 181 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 3: And I don't understand why people are so gun try 182 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 3: to come out and just say what happened and what 183 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 3: led to this decision. It's not like we don't know 184 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,439 Speaker 3: what's happening. You know. Last Wednesday, I think they put 185 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 3: out like three press releases saying that she was still employed, 186 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 3: which is you know, you know that Scott, You're in 187 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 3: the media is like, that's the kiss of death. 188 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't I don't understand you. 189 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 2: We're good at reducing force around here, so we know this, 190 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 2: but I don't heard when somebody get called back from 191 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:53,679 Speaker 2: a conference in Denver and going, hey, you got to 192 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 2: get back here right away because you've got a we've 193 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 2: got a violence emergency. Well, you know, the emergency would 194 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 2: have happened immediately. What happened to Mountain Square, this was, 195 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 2: this was after that. There's nothing newsworthy going on, and 196 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 2: just out of the blue, she's in Denver and now 197 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 2: we got to pull the plug on or doesn't make 198 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 2: any sense. And I brought up A. Henny's name earlier, 199 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 2: and he seems like a great guy, be a great chief. 200 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 2: But I guess the question is, wasn't that Terry the 201 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 2: We don't know why Terry Thigi got fired in the 202 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,719 Speaker 2: first place. There's no reason around this. And technically she's 203 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,080 Speaker 2: not fired, she's still on administrative leave. So there's that 204 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 2: level of confusion. What are you getting with Henny that 205 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 2: you didn't have with Thiji. Nobody knows. 206 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 3: Right, And you know, again, a hard number one priority 207 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 3: has to be public safety. So you know, I I 208 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 3: think Henny is going to do a great job. But 209 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 3: at the end of the day, you know, things I've 210 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 3: heard from police officers are are we being held accountable 211 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 3: for the fact that crime is happening? And I can't 212 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 3: imagine what the morale is and I have it. 213 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 2: It's a very. 214 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 3: Difficult question for me to answer it now because I 215 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,319 Speaker 3: don't know what we're holding her accountable for. There may 216 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 3: ver will be a good reason, Scott that you and 217 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 3: I would agree with and say, yeah, that's the right decision, 218 00:09:58,160 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 3: and you know, it had to happen urgently, but we 219 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 3: absent of information, we don't know that, and so the 220 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 3: perception is chaos. And uh, you know, we're reacting to crime, 221 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 3: but we're reacting now to it as opposed to over 222 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 3: the summer, where you and I've had multiple conversations about it, 223 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 3: and this is just it doesn't make sense. And I 224 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 3: think the clarity is so badly needed because it is 225 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 3: going to have a negative impact on our police, it's 226 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 3: going to have a negative impact on our citizen morale, 227 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 3: it's going to have a negative impact on what we 228 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 3: are trying to do as a city. And right now, 229 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 3: I don't think that we need that forget the election, 230 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,439 Speaker 3: think about Cincinnati and what we are trying to achieve. 231 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 3: You and I talk about economic development all the time. 232 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 3: You know, right now is when we need the inspiring 233 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 3: confidence that we've got this under control, because we want 234 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 3: people coming downtown, we want people coming to over the run. 235 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 3: This is not a good time to indicate in any 236 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 3: way that we you know, we're not We don't have 237 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,319 Speaker 3: a plan for how we're handling public safety. And again 238 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 3: there may very well be a plan. They come out 239 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 3: and tell it to us, show us what the plan is. 240 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 2: I don't have a censor as a plan, Council Member 241 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 2: sas Walsh, I really really don't. 242 00:10:57,800 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 3: Uh. 243 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 2: Here's the issue, though, you're out now campaigning as all 244 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 2: members of council are, when election coming up in just 245 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 2: a few short days, you're almost down to the wire 246 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 2: right now. When you talk to your constituents, When you 247 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 2: talk to the good people of Cincinnati, not only the citizens, 248 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 2: but also the people who operate and own businesses in 249 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,719 Speaker 2: in downtown, just to maybe travelers too as well, who 250 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 2: the hell knows you make contact with. What is the 251 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 2: consensus among the constituents in this. 252 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm hearing. I imagine this is what you're 253 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 3: hearing and what people are feeling who are listening to this. 254 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 3: You know, Opinions about the police chief varied, but opinions 255 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 3: about how this has been handled are pretty unified, which 256 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 3: is that she didn't deserve to be treated this way 257 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,680 Speaker 3: so publicly. It's not clear why it happened, and so 258 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,959 Speaker 3: the opinions on the entire process is that it is 259 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 3: it's been atrocious and that nobody deserves to go through this, 260 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 3: least of all for not a clear reason about why. 261 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 3: And people are pretty offended by it, and I think 262 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 3: rightfully so, and I think again, absence of information, it 263 00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 3: looks bad. It looks really bad. 264 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 2: Oh, the FOP should have voted no confidence on the 265 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 2: mayor's conduct here in an indirect way that with Thigi 266 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 2: and now they're standing behind Fiji going listen. There are 267 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 2: numbers who had issues with Terry and how she ran 268 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 2: the shop, as you will with any boss for that matter. 269 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 2: But at the same time everyone is coalesced. I guess 270 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 2: on the thin blue line to say this is outrageous 271 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 2: and there's no plan going. The way I look at 272 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 2: it politically, Seth is what's the strategy here. I mean 273 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 2: you have turmoil with an interim chief, which implies you 274 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,560 Speaker 2: have no control over crime and that it's all Terry 275 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 2: Thigi's fault. You mean, Kenny the chief. It's a fresh start. 276 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 2: Then you get to the election. Were the repercussions here? 277 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 2: Because I'll be honest with you, even with this nonsense 278 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 2: and this mess that's going on right now in this 279 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 2: S show and the way this has been handled, I 280 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 2: don't know how Aftab loses the election. I really don't. 281 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 2: I mean he can, I suppose, but I don't see 282 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,680 Speaker 2: this huge ground swell for Corey Bowman, who's a political 283 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 2: no name upcomer, and Jad Vans's brother dad has baggage. 284 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. 285 00:12:55,800 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 3: Well, I mean I saw a great faith and of 286 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,960 Speaker 3: the Cincinnati and I do think that his election results 287 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 3: will be very positive for him. But I think it's 288 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 3: important to remind you, know, your listeners, that Cincinnati is 289 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 3: three branches of government. You know, it's the mayor, it's 290 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 3: the city council and this administration, and all three are 291 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 3: are theoretically equal. So you know, the mayor, I think 292 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 3: you're right, he's going to get re elected city Council. 293 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 3: Obviously that the vote there is important for people to 294 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 3: show up and make their voices heard, but also equally 295 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,680 Speaker 3: so you know, even if you know all eight incumbents 296 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 3: are re elected and you know we get the ninth member, 297 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 3: Bryan James elected on the Democratic slate there, people may 298 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,839 Speaker 3: feel frustrated, but the administration is still equal on here 299 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 3: that you know, you should be expecting us to be 300 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 3: asking these hard questions of You should be asking us 301 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 3: and expecting us to be challenging them to come up 302 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 3: with the answers and tell us what is going on 303 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 3: in a public setting, not behind closed doors, not in 304 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 3: a way that you know it's not clear, because this 305 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 3: is too big and too important of an issue not 306 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 3: to have clear answers off for the public. And I 307 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 3: think that's really important people understand. You know, the mayor 308 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,319 Speaker 3: and city council are your voices near representatives the way 309 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 3: our government is set up, as the administration's in charge, 310 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 3: and if we are not getting clear answers, we need 311 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 3: to be pushing them to get the clear answers. And 312 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 3: we can't just rest on our laurels and say like, 313 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 3: well that's their decision. We need answers we need to. 314 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:12,679 Speaker 2: Hold them agut and we do. 315 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 3: This is one way to do it. Let's make it 316 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 3: clear where we're frustrated. 317 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 2: All right, voters most likely will choose AFTAB over Corey Bowman. 318 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 2: But at the same time, does this have an effect 319 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 2: down ticket? Should you be concerned as well? Should the 320 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 2: odd members of council because so many people that are 321 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 2: running because of the way this was mishandled. We've got 322 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 2: so many hats in the ring right now. Anything can happen. 323 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 2: You say you support AFT to add pureval, but what 324 00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 2: if you cost you your seat? 325 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 3: Like anybody running for any office should be scared when 326 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 3: they have to go out there. They have to earn 327 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 3: votes every single day. It's one of the reasons that 328 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 3: I'm trying to be vocal about this. I think the 329 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 3: people's for people need to feel their frustration is being 330 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 3: vocalized at an elucts of leadership capacity. I think anybody 331 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 3: running right now should be worried and should be willing 332 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 3: to take a stance on this issue, and they have 333 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 3: their opinions known on this issue because this is an 334 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 3: important issue that determines kind of how the next administration 335 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 3: operates in terms of you know, whoever gets elected this cycle. 336 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 3: And if you're not willing to speak out, if you're 337 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 3: not willing to challenge and the hold people accountable. You know, 338 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 3: that's the role of a city council member is to 339 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 3: hold the administration accountable, to ask the hard questions. It's 340 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 3: how you and I to become I would say we're 341 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 3: friends now, Scott, but you know, we started having these 342 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 3: conversations about a bridge fire where they thought that three 343 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 3: years was acceptable to take to get it fixed, and 344 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 3: I've said, no way, and we got done one hundred days. 345 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 3: That's why we start talking about snowclouds, because we didn't 346 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 3: plow six hundred streets and we had to hold people 347 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 3: accountable and ultimately the DPS director retired because of that, 348 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 3: and we got somebody in there that is going to 349 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 3: get our streets cloud this year. And that is the 350 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 3: job of the city council member. And if you're not 351 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 3: willing to speak out the whole the administration accountable, I 352 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 3: don't know why you should be elected to it. And 353 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 3: I think that you guys should be holding people accountable 354 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 3: and challenging us to speak out and say these things. 355 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 3: We can all be the same party. We can all 356 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 3: be friends, but our job is accountability. 357 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 2: I can't say all Seth Walsh. I can't say all 358 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 2: members of council beside yourself, but most members of council 359 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 2: and maybe y'all. No one wants to come out publicly 360 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 2: and chastise the mayor and call them out as you 361 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 2: just did on the show. Why is that? Why do 362 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 2: you think that is that you're the only one willing 363 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 2: to do it. 364 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 3: I don't know, Scott, and I will prefer to you 365 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 3: to figure that one out for me. I don't have 366 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 3: enough money to go to therapy to get that answer. 367 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, it's not I don't understand. It seems 368 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 2: to me maybe we're just trying to protect the brand. 369 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 2: Like if I'm a Democrat, I'm not allowed to criticize 370 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 2: another Democrat. You just did that, and I think you're 371 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 2: going to be fine. It's okay. We need to get 372 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 2: back to it. Whether it's same with the Republicans. Republicans, Hey, 373 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 2: you can't criticize Trump. Yeah you can. You're supposed to. 374 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 2: That's how the system works up. I mean, I got 375 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 2: I get in fights when I was younger, all the 376 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 2: time with my two brothers. I still love them. I 377 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 2: take a bullet for either one or both of them. 378 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 2: But you're allowed to disagree with people. 379 00:16:55,960 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, and I try to lead by sample, 380 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 3: and I hope you know it is scary sometimes to 381 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 3: step on the ledge and take the phone call with you, 382 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 3: Scott and say, I don't know his opening question is 383 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 3: going to be today, but we'll find out. 384 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:10,440 Speaker 2: Oh that's two of us. 385 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,880 Speaker 3: Yeah right, so we're always surprised. It's always a fun time. 386 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 3: But yeah, I hope others get the confidence and the 387 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 3: courage to be speak out too, because I think on 388 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 3: issues like this it's too important to stay silent. 389 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, all right, I know you got to get going, Seth. 390 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,360 Speaker 2: I appreciate it. Hopefully you can brave through this. Council member, 391 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,920 Speaker 2: Seth Wals should appreciate your vote. I'm sure very thoughtful 392 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 2: as always, and we'll see where this goes. But I 393 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 2: even think the people who know I don't know where 394 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 2: it's going at this point, and that's a scary part. 395 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 2: All the best, my friend, do will. 396 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 3: Thanks Scott, take care. 397 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 2: You know, we just had the No King's protest down people. 398 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 2: Donald Trump is as it's chaos. He's making rass decisions, 399 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 2: no accountability, no context. And if you're a Democrat and 400 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,399 Speaker 2: you're down there, I imagine many Republicans are the no 401 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:57,159 Speaker 2: Kings rally. But if you're down there, a't so your 402 00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 2: point and this is your belief, I'd have to ask you, 403 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 2: isn't this exactly what you were protesting this weekend? Chaos? 404 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 2: No accountability, investigations by law enforcement that are politically compromised, 405 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:15,719 Speaker 2: unelected appointees like Iris Rawley having too much power, cronyism. 406 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,159 Speaker 2: We protesting Trump when you should have also been protesting 407 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 2: aftab puer Vault. Scott's Loan Show seven hundred ww Solony 408 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 2: seven hundred WLW just had that council member Seth Walsh 409 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 2: on the show live and he brought the noise this morning. 410 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 2: That's a little who That was like a third cup 411 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 2: of coffee, Wasn't it? Like the only member of council 412 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 2: not afraid to go at AFT tab pure Vaul at 413 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 2: this point everyone else is kind of laying lows in 414 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,159 Speaker 2: which way the wind blows, which I get. You know, 415 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:53,399 Speaker 2: election season, you don't know what's going to happen with 416 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 2: the voters because they're a piste off, and who could 417 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:58,200 Speaker 2: blame them based on what's happening right now, largely because 418 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 2: of the mayor. And I think there's maybe some conservatives, 419 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 2: probably a good number of people or cursing me out 420 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 2: or maybe not listening anymore because I'm not drinking the 421 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:12,880 Speaker 2: entire right kool aid. And that's fine. But I look 422 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 2: at that and go, well, you know, I just don't. 423 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 2: Corey Bowman seems like a good guy. You know, he's 424 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 2: a pastor, he's the brother of the Vice president. If 425 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 2: you're a conservative, you probably vote for him. But the 426 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:25,879 Speaker 2: problem is you're not in Hamlin County. It's deep, deep blue, 427 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 2: and how much does that carry in deep blue Cincinnati. No, 428 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 2: I think after that peerful knows that, and which is 429 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 2: even the worst part, because you feel like, hey, you 430 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:38,439 Speaker 2: know what, I don't have to I don't have to 431 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,440 Speaker 2: play this out. I can do whatever I want, which 432 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 2: is part of a bigger problem. And I kind of 433 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 2: brought it up at the end of talking to Seth 434 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:46,119 Speaker 2: Walsh there and I was thinking about it, turning the 435 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:51,639 Speaker 2: break and go. This past weekend we had the No 436 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 2: Kings rallies right that the nationwide protests against President Trump. 437 00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 2: Not one person who voted for Trump would be a 438 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 2: No Kings rally. Right, So the protesters, what were their grievances, Well, 439 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 2: there are a lot of individual grievances out there, and 440 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 2: anytime you have one of these tantrums, and that's what 441 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 2: it was, a tantrum. It's a bunch of people with 442 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 2: hold a wide difference of what it is there to 443 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 2: bitch about. But the commonality is the president of the 444 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 2: United States and the protesters were concerned about what many 445 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 2: things the direction of the country that were descending into fascism. 446 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,640 Speaker 2: That there's just nothing but chaos with this president. I'd 447 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,200 Speaker 2: agree with that, there's a lot of chaos going on. 448 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 2: That this is a guy that makes rash decisions. There's 449 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 2: no accountability, there's no context. Okay, you protested Trump et cetera. 450 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:46,480 Speaker 2: Point this weekend for the No Kings rally. How is 451 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,920 Speaker 2: this different than what's happening at city Hall? Because one guy, 452 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,880 Speaker 2: and you could say, sure, a long now aftad pure 453 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 2: of all is holding the city hostage in a sense 454 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 2: with the stupid ways handled crime. There's platitudes and there's measures, 455 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 2: there are too little, too late. Trump doesn't answer to anyone. 456 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:04,959 Speaker 2: And if you love Trump, you love that about him. 457 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 2: But if you don't, you hate that. It's like he 458 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 2: won't listen to He only listens himself. Okay, so who's 459 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:15,400 Speaker 2: aftablist answering to counsel? No. We just had Seth Walshawn 460 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 2: and he said, no one knows what's going on. We 461 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:20,879 Speaker 2: know that Trump isn't afraid of the camera or the 462 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 2: reporter of the question. He goes to them. Hell, he 463 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 2: puts all the stuff out. I'm social. When Patrick Carringer 464 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 2: was killed in his own home two days later, he 465 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,159 Speaker 2: didn't post about that. He posted about a ribbon cutting 466 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 2: that he was a part of and literally steps away from. 467 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 2: When this man was murdered his own home, not a word. 468 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 2: We had the since he beat down in late July, 469 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,879 Speaker 2: what did he do?

I may 493 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:05,919 Speaker 2: be wrong about that, and this is I don't think 494 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 2: it's indictment of Henny, because I understand it's great guy. 495 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,199 Speaker 2: He's loved by the cops, and you know, I get it. 496 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:11,879 Speaker 2: You're going to do what you're told if you're the 497 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 2: piper you call the tune, and Henny is not the piper. 498 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 2: He's way down the food chain. And he didn't want 499 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,879 Speaker 2: his officers to have be forced politically by the mayor's 500 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 2: office to do that, so he said, I'll do it 501 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,120 Speaker 2: for you. That that's leadership in a in a very 502 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 2: and that's leadership in a vacuum, is what that is. 503 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 2: So this is an attack on Henny. This is an attack 504 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 2: on what happened we hear about. Oh my god, look 505 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 2: at look at all the benefactors to Trump and the 506 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 2: people that are as you know, the people that support 507 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:47,680 Speaker 2: him and give him money, and his benefactors that elon 508 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 2: musks and the butt kissing him. Okay, unelected appoint he's 509 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 2: have too much power. And this is a much smaller 510 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 2: scale because of the city of Cincinnati. But what Tyris Rawley, 511 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 2: she's she's interfering with cops who are awfully enforcement a 512 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,480 Speaker 2: law by arresting individuals without standing warrant. What you're supposed 513 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:05,920 Speaker 2: to do in your cop and she's telling the person 514 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,679 Speaker 2: you have rights to resist. This is a woman they 515 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 2: pay over one hundred thousand dollars to who. By the way, 516 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 2: three years ago, when Terry Thigi got the job. The candidates, 517 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 2: including Terry, were interviewed by Iris Rawley. They had to 518 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 2: pass the Iris Rowley test. What authority does she have? 519 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:27,919 Speaker 2: Two few and two infrequent state troopers, which they begutually 520 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 2: went along with, but just enough to make it, Hey, 521 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:31,920 Speaker 2: we're cooperating with the state. You really aren't. They're coming 522 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 2: in for like one, like one day a week or 523 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 2: two days a week, something stupid like that. The state 524 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:39,679 Speaker 2: troopers had to be lectured by her. And if you 525 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:43,919 Speaker 2: talk about cronyism, Roy's son was hired to talk to 526 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,119 Speaker 2: young people at Fountain Square as a criminal pass and 527 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 2: I guess it's maybe to get them on the right path. 528 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 2: He's got a part time gig through his mom, paying 529 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:54,640 Speaker 2: sixty I think, what is it, almost sixty thousand dollars 530 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 2: a year. Fifty thousand dollars a year. Sixty dollars an 531 00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 2: hour basically is what it is. What to talk to 532 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 2: people to Fountain Square. You're getting fifty sixty bucks an hour. 533 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 2: Who the hell doesn't want that gig? And why does 534 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 2: he have that job because of his experien No, because 535 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 2: his mom is connected the AFTM. So for all the 536 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 2: folks who are down on the Riverfront this weekend with 537 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:17,919 Speaker 2: a No King's rally and all the stuff that you're against, 538 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 2: and there's a lot of there's a lot of things. 539 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:22,639 Speaker 2: I get it with this president that people don't like. 540 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:25,160 Speaker 2: I understand it. Some of it I agree with myself. 541 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,119 Speaker 2: But for me, who the problem is politics, it's not 542 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:33,879 Speaker 2: the politician, it's the party, it's the process. You know, 543 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 2: it's kind of funny watching folks out there who are 544 00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:39,360 Speaker 2: deep deep blue, angry at deep deep red, and they 545 00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 2: don't see that the deep deep problem is the same thing. 546 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,480 Speaker 2: There's a lot of characteristics I just laid out and 547 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 2: probably many more that you can check the box for 548 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:50,200 Speaker 2: Donald Trump, but you can also check that box or 549 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:56,520 Speaker 2: after to have puerful other stuff going on. Speaking of which, 550 00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 2: speaking of the presidential l this is one to me 551 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 2: that I look at and I don't know. We're just 552 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 2: people are just so angry at one side or the 553 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 2: other that they just they can't see even when it's 554 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 2: something is I don't know, minor as remodeling the White House. 555 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,159 Speaker 2: They're gonna make a big deal out of it. So 556 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 2: the Australian Prime ministers and I guess someone bumped into 557 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 2: a four hundred year old mirr and Trump kind of 558 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:20,200 Speaker 2: lost his mind a little bit, which is kind of funny, 559 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:23,480 Speaker 2: but pointed out that he's worried about it about one 560 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,200 Speaker 2: mirror while the demolition crews at the same time are ripping, 561 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 2: are destroying the east wing, and why are they destroying 562 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 2: the east wing? They make room for this gaudy ballroom. 563 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 2: Hold on just a second, y'all. The White House came 564 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 2: to be the White House in seventeen ninety two. That's 565 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 2: two hundred and thirty three years. So let's just review 566 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 2: a second. Okay, has that building changed you think substantially 567 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 2: in the last two hundred and thirty plus years. Chester Arthur, 568 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 2: Chester A Arthur, and the A stands well. I don't 569 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 2: know what the A stands were, but it stands for something. 570 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 2: Chester A. Arthur had a remodel done where it was 571 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 2: largely Victorian, a lot of tiffany glass. Some people like 572 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,199 Speaker 2: the tiffany glass. Some people go it's too much. And 573 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 2: one of those people to be Teddy Roosevelt, because twenty 574 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 2: one years later he revitalized the White House added the 575 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 2: West Wing. The West Wing wasn't always there. Teddy Roosevelt 576 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 2: tr put in the West Wing. It's a separate building 577 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 2: that houses, as you know, the staff, the secretary's cabinet room, 578 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:28,080 Speaker 2: all that stuff as well. Then our own, Cincinnati's own 579 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:31,680 Speaker 2: William Howard Taft in nineteen oh nine, seven years later, 580 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 2: comes in and expands the West Wing and says, you 581 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 2: know what, We're gonna put an office in here, the 582 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,639 Speaker 2: Oval Office. The Oval Office was non existent till nineteen 583 00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 2: oh nine. In nineteen twenty seven, Calvin Coolidge put a 584 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,720 Speaker 2: third floor on and said, yeah, you know what, we're 585 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 2: run out of space because we keep putting stuff in 586 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,440 Speaker 2: the attic. What if we just put a third floor 587 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 2: in this thing? And at the time, the newspapers one 588 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,920 Speaker 2: newspaper work anti Calvin Coolidge, going, what are we doing 589 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,200 Speaker 2: over here? I know it's the twenties, the roaring twenties, 590 00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:00,200 Speaker 2: and we've got money, but this seems irresponsible. And of 591 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 2: course then during this whole remodel, we had the Great 592 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:08,199 Speaker 2: Depression kick in. Near the end of that term. In 593 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,880 Speaker 2: nineteen forty eight, Truman said, okay, well we really need 594 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 2: to double down here. And it was the most extensive 595 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 2: renovation the history of the White House that lasted four 596 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 2: years to remodel the White House entirely, which was well overneeded, 597 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 2: desperately need at that point. But even since the Truman renovation. 598 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,960 Speaker 2: In nineteen fifty two, Jackie Kennedy created the Rose Garden 599 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 2: and you know, Donald Trump blew that up and it 600 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 2: pissed every Oh Rose Garden the history again, what was 601 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 2: the Rose Garden before Jackie Kennedy did something there? Gerald 602 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 2: Ford put a swimming pool in, Nickson put in a 603 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 2: bowling alley. In seventy three, Obama did the Big Dig 604 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 2: and that just basically expanded the situation room and the 605 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 2: space under the west wing, so nothing was destroyed there. 606 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 2: But we've had a long history of blowing up the 607 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 2: White House and doing different things. I just I don't 608 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 2: understand why, hey, taking the west one would put a 609 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 2: new ballroom in. It's just because Trump's doing it now. 610 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 2: If Biden had won the election and we're doing it, 611 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 2: I'm sure people on the right to be screaming out, 612 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 2: we don't have the money to do this stuff, and 613 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 2: so it goes. It's just the silliness of it. We've 614 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,480 Speaker 2: been remodeling the White House periodically for a long time 615 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 2: because the building is two hundred and thirty three years old, 616 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 2: and eventually you look at it going, this isn't working anymore. 617 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,479 Speaker 2: And I forget what Nixon's bowling all. I don't think 618 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 2: it's a bowling al anymore. It's something else. You think 619 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 2: Obama had a basketball court putt it or something. I 620 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 2: don't know if the court was always there, but had 621 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 2: that I wonder if that went away. I don't know, 622 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 2: but it seems like they do a good job, even 623 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,160 Speaker 2: with the shutdown, of taking care of themselves. And that 624 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:33,719 Speaker 2: is the point of the discussion. It's like you keep 625 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 2: blaming one side or the other. You just keep making 626 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 2: excuses for your team and ignoring it when the other 627 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 2: You emphasize it when the other side does it, ignore 628 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 2: it when your side does it. It's exhausting. I think 629 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 2: for those of us, the eighty percent of us, we 630 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 2: just want to live our lives, make money, be left alone, 631 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:48,960 Speaker 2: probably feel about the same way. You know, back to 632 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 2: the government shutdown. And as they said, as we get 633 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 2: closer to thirty thirty five days in the significant of 634 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 2: the shutdown gets greater and greater. You know, for the 635 00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 2: first couple of weeks, who cares, got some park shutdown? Okay, 636 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 2: somebody could get paid eventually they get paid, you know, 637 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 2: a month. And now it's starting to cut to the 638 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:06,240 Speaker 2: correl aboe. You know, we're getting job reports and things 639 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 2: like that start to go by the wayside. And now 640 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 2: you know, nuclear energy furloughs. Okay, well what does that 641 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 2: look like? In the longer drags on, the deeper and 642 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 2: deeper we start to feel this. But the beginning it's 643 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 2: it's we're still I believe we're still in the theater 644 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 2: stage at this thing. Okay, nuclear weapons agency has been 645 00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 2: hit according to Fox News, right, a government shut down 646 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 2: hits top nuclear weapons agency. All Right, as I'd be 647 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 2: concerned if we had to launch nukes, I would you 648 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 2: still be able to do that? Yes, yes we would 649 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 2: because all but eight percent of the government is still open. 650 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 2: That's not going to change the pain felt by federal 651 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 2: workers and contractors. And maybe when you show up to 652 00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 2: get something done, like for example, got an email. Doesn't 653 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 2: apply to me at all, but I pay Social Security 654 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 2: as probably you do when you get an email from 655 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 2: the Social Security and mister saying listen, you know what 656 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 2: the officers are shot, but you still do stuff online. So, 657 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 2: as I said yesterday, is a matter of fact to 658 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:05,239 Speaker 2: our Buddy Schaeffer over it all worth financial they're going 659 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 2: to get back together. I guess the people decide this 660 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 2: to make sure that the COLO that would be the 661 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 2: cost of living raiss for those on Social Security will 662 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 2: get their cost of living increase, because if he didn't 663 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 2: do that, and the old people who vote would be 664 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 2: pissed off. Now you're literally putting your lips on that 665 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 2: third rail. That's what you're doing. But you know, the 666 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 2: stuff that's going to really really upset people, like Social Security, 667 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 2: We're still going to continue to do that kind of stuff. 668 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 2: And we're always going to do that because this is 669 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 2: nothing but theater. 670 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 4: Now. 671 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,959 Speaker 2: Granted, the longer we get into it, the more of 672 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,120 Speaker 2: those things will see and feel, and we'll just get 673 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 2: tired of them, and eventually somebody's gonna blink and they'll 674 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 2: come back and we'll just shut the government down again 675 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 2: in about six or seven weeks and start this process 676 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 2: all over again. Slowly. Here the big one seven hundred 677 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 2: WLW do have some developing news, and we've been so 678 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,320 Speaker 2: I got obsessed with the Terry Thiji thing that's still 679 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 2: going on that there's actually other stuff going on in 680 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 2: the world. Those things is recall, right before all this 681 00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 2: broke was the intoxicating hemp law reform that was going down, 682 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 2: where intoxicating hemp UH and that whole process is it's 683 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 2: rather complex if you're not following what's going on there. 684 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 2: We have beverages out there that have THHC in them, 685 00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 2: and THHC, of course is the element in cannabis THHC 686 00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:24,200 Speaker 2: delta nine in particular that gets you high. And there's 687 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:26,240 Speaker 2: a lot of confusion over this whole thing. I hope 688 00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 2: I can straighten it out maybe a little bit here, 689 00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 2: make some sense of this, because it's a complex issue 690 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 2: as to why we're going after intoxicating hemp. And there's 691 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 2: beverages out there that they sell that have THHC in it, 692 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:38,720 Speaker 2: but that derive from the hemp plant. And there's a 693 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:42,240 Speaker 2: lot of complex things. Largely it's because of all the 694 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 2: lack of regulation and then sweeping regulation coming in once 695 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 2: the people pass something like legislating recuational marijuana. So cannabis 696 00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:52,240 Speaker 2: and hemp are related plants. They look alike chemically, they're different. 697 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 2: The part that gets you high AF is a lot 698 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:59,440 Speaker 2: less present than hemp, so in cannabis, THHC is a 699 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 2: lot higher. That's the stuff that gets you high, and 700 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 2: CBD it's the opposite. It's it's a lot less. Hemp 701 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 2: is legal in the United States, Cannabis isn't by federal law. 702 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 2: Hemp is a plant, and bulk of hemp is actually 703 00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 2: used for fabric and clothing and stuff like that. Rope 704 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:19,720 Speaker 2: think for example, so THHG gets you high, CBD doesn't. 705 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 2: Hemp has something like point three percent THHCN, just a 706 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,239 Speaker 2: trace amount of it. So somebody along the line said, hey, 707 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 2: you know what, since there's this hemp loophole, quote unquote, 708 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 2: if we just get a hell of a lot of 709 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 2: hemp and extract that point three percent THCHD, we can 710 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 2: take that and it'll have the same effect as marijuana plant, 711 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 2: the America cannabis plant. So technically it's a loophole because we 712 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 2: will always find a way around prohibition always. We always 713 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 2: have in the world. If there's a black market, somebody's 714 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 2: gonna find it. So hemp products can be sold almost 715 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 2: anywhere in the state and the government has no jurisdiction. 716 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 2: That's why we had this emergency order from the wine 717 00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:59,400 Speaker 2: because the legislature was slow to move on changing end 718 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 2: of it's because they're being held hostage, I guess by 719 00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 2: the far right. And we're afraid of church groups yelling 720 00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:07,240 Speaker 2: at us because dare someone put something or do something 721 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 2: that they disagree with put some of their body disagree 722 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 2: with that. That's how it works. And so the other 723 00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:14,440 Speaker 2: thing you need about Delta eight nine is eight is 724 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,440 Speaker 2: considered a less potent and milder than delta nine. That 725 00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:20,279 Speaker 2: is a big component in cannabis, and you get more 726 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:22,760 Speaker 2: of a subdued high in that it's a little more relaxing, 727 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 2: a little more clear headed. And delta nine is your 728 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,400 Speaker 2: classic weed high. And so we have these beverages that 729 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:30,840 Speaker 2: are infused with that product, the Delta eight that people enjoy. 730 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:33,320 Speaker 2: And then talking to well like the folks at fifty 731 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 2: West for example, said hey, listen, you know our craft 732 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,080 Speaker 2: brew the whole craft brew thing starting to die. People 733 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 2: are kind of craft brewed out. But you know what 734 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,920 Speaker 2: they really really like. They like these seltzers. They like 735 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 2: these waters essentially that are infused with that Delta eight. 736 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:51,240 Speaker 2: So you get the same effect as alcohol, but also 737 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,840 Speaker 2: a lot of people like the way you feel the 738 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,520 Speaker 2: day after. You know, a lot of people get hangovers. 739 00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 2: By the way, my superpower, never get hungover, get drink 740 00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 2: and drink, drink, and wake up the next day ready 741 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:05,200 Speaker 2: to go. Don't know why, just how it is in 742 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 2: that regard. People are going, Wow, you know what, I 743 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:09,279 Speaker 2: don't have that feeling I have the next day. I 744 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 2: can have a couple of these and feel nice, have 745 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:14,800 Speaker 2: a good, warm feeling about me as you get with alcohol. 746 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:19,560 Speaker 2: But I don't have the residual effect. Okay, you're twenty 747 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 2: one or older. What's wrong with that? Nothing? So the 748 00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 2: good news is, rather than we had this ninety day ban, 749 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 2: and then of course there was a three companies, one 750 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:28,759 Speaker 2: here in Cincinnati filing a lawsuit against this, and there's 751 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:30,759 Speaker 2: an injunction that stops so you can still drink those 752 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 2: beverages at fifty West and elsewhere. It's all good now. Finally, 753 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 2: what looks like we have the legislature being forced at 754 00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 2: gunpoint to do what they're unwilling to do, and we 755 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:43,759 Speaker 2: have new legislation that addresses all this stuff. The guy 756 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,520 Speaker 2: behind it, of course, is Steve Hoffman. He's a physician 757 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 2: and also state senator from just the Tip City. He 758 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:50,840 Speaker 2: joins me next on the show to talk about this 759 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 2: and more coming up on seven hundred WW Cincinnati Good 760 00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 2: Morning's Scott fum here on seven hundred WW streaming on 761 00:35:59,920 --> 00:36:02,680 Speaker 2: the iHeartRadio app. We have the PG stuff going on, 762 00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 2: of course, and we also have this this is kind 763 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 2: of breaking news, and you're getting at first, three Ohio companies, 764 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 2: you know, file a lawsuit challenging Governor to wines emergency 765 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 2: order to ban the sale of low level intoxicating him products, 766 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 2: namely those peltzers you like because they're infused with Delta eight. 767 00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:20,520 Speaker 2: And a lawsuit was enjoined by those companies and he 768 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:22,440 Speaker 2: had a ninety day ban in effect, and that was 769 00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,920 Speaker 2: set aside. But guess what, we may have a resolution. 770 00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 2: We may have a resolution in this whole sort of 771 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:32,200 Speaker 2: affair on that is Ohio Senator Steve Hoffman out of 772 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:34,480 Speaker 2: just a Tip City. He's a physician by trade, but 773 00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:37,720 Speaker 2: also longtime lawmaker in the Senate. Steve, Good morning, Houses 774 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 2: Wednesday morning. Find you. 775 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:42,799 Speaker 4: A beautiful day, beautiful day all as well. 776 00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:44,200 Speaker 2: I'm ready to go. How about you? 777 00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:44,360 Speaker 3: So? 778 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:48,279 Speaker 2: You sponsored Senate Bill fifty six that was the controversial 779 00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:51,640 Speaker 2: one overhauls of cannabis laws. Consolidates and revises a medical 780 00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 2: and adult use marijuana regulations. Also establishes, in more importantly, 781 00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 2: a regulatory flame framework for all the stuff to work. 782 00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:02,040 Speaker 2: So all of a sudden time hemp comes along and 783 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:04,320 Speaker 2: people are going, oh, well, we can kind of milk 784 00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 2: that hemp and get old thc out of it enough 785 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:10,480 Speaker 2: to make an intoxicating beverage or edible or vape or 786 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:14,120 Speaker 2: tincture or something along those lines. Unfortunate because it's not regulated. 787 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 2: Some retailers, not a lot of them, but a number 788 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,640 Speaker 2: of them, to take notice, are selling them the kids, 789 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 2: and we can't have that. I understand that whole thing. 790 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:24,000 Speaker 2: I thought that the ninety day ban was all overreaching 791 00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:28,480 Speaker 2: when you're preventing adultsom enjoying. But again, the lawsuit forces 792 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 2: the hand, the Governor DeWine forces the hand, and the 793 00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:34,359 Speaker 2: end result is we're hearing that there's a sub bill 794 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 2: to be added to your Senate Bill fifty six. It 795 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:39,320 Speaker 2: would add hemp regulation to it, kind of bringing everything 796 00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:41,280 Speaker 2: together in the same page. Is that The short story 797 00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 2: is that the quick read the quick read. 798 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:46,439 Speaker 4: I also had the Senate passed out my bill sent 799 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:50,520 Speaker 4: Bill eighty six was on hemp, and basically what we 800 00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:54,560 Speaker 4: did was put all the intoxicating hemp into the dispensaries. 801 00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:59,319 Speaker 4: And that's where the two got put together. And we 802 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:04,480 Speaker 4: have one on marijuana, and and the House yesterday spoke 803 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 4: about you know, they passed out of committee basically changing 804 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:10,120 Speaker 4: the hemp thing. 805 00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:12,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, so you can't you know, the idea of going 806 00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:15,359 Speaker 2: to a convenience store, be it anyone for that matter, 807 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 2: no idea whatsoever, you're going to buy something that can 808 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:21,279 Speaker 2: get you as intoxicated as as an adult beverage, you 809 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:23,399 Speaker 2: need to be cardedt ID four at age twenty one. 810 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:25,280 Speaker 2: That that didn't apply. It was kind of a loopholear 811 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:28,760 Speaker 2: that cleans all this up. So you won't see retailers carryouts, 812 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,520 Speaker 2: roague carryouts for that matter, doing what we're talking about here, 813 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:33,319 Speaker 2: because you can't have that. 814 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:37,080 Speaker 4: And I agree with that, right, I mean, the overall 815 00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:40,399 Speaker 4: pemis is youre have to be twenty one you over 816 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 4: to buy it. Now, there's you know, the established as 817 00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:49,760 Speaker 4: a license where four hundred places that are already selling 818 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:54,399 Speaker 4: this in eighty percent of their retail is him. They 819 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:59,320 Speaker 4: will be able to continue to do this. But in here, 820 00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:04,440 Speaker 4: as as you've spoken before, and your wife enjoys the 821 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,600 Speaker 4: cannabis strength, that you'd be able to sell the five 822 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:12,000 Speaker 4: percent of the five milligrams of THHC and a bar, 823 00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:16,000 Speaker 4: but you would be able to as a carryout by 824 00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:21,960 Speaker 4: ten milligrams from that bar or from a liquor establishment 825 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:23,879 Speaker 4: at twenty one and over. 826 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:28,680 Speaker 2: Okay, so I again most people, myself included doctor, Really 827 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:30,920 Speaker 2: I don't understand five milligrams and HAM two million. I 828 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:33,839 Speaker 2: look at some gummies that are five MILLI not point five, 829 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:37,040 Speaker 2: but five milligram or ten milligram gummies, which you certainly 830 00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:39,680 Speaker 2: can feel the effect of. From what I understand, the 831 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:43,240 Speaker 2: point five seems rather low. Is there nothing point five milligrams? 832 00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:45,920 Speaker 2: And let's say a can of seltzer? How does that 833 00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:48,879 Speaker 2: compare to let's say a can of beer. As far 834 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:51,479 Speaker 2: as the effect, I. 835 00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:55,120 Speaker 4: Think the effect of five milligrams is like a six 836 00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:59,439 Speaker 4: percent bud, Like you know, you have one, Hey, you're 837 00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:01,960 Speaker 4: not going to really feel much of the fact. You know, 838 00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:05,880 Speaker 4: two or three or four you may start getting intoxicated 839 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 4: and do funny things. 840 00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:09,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, that makes sense. You drink three or four 841 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 2: of them, you're starting to feel the effects of it, 842 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:12,640 Speaker 2: which you know you don't want to make it completely 843 00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:15,680 Speaker 2: alcohol or in this case THHC free because it defeats 844 00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:18,160 Speaker 2: the purpose if you're looking to, you know, maybe feel good. 845 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:19,719 Speaker 2: And let's face a lot of people like to say, 846 00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:21,680 Speaker 2: I drink Why do I like craft beer? I like 847 00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:23,279 Speaker 2: the taste. Why do I like bourbon? I like the 848 00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:25,680 Speaker 2: taste of it? Most people drink it to get well 849 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:27,520 Speaker 2: messed up. Let's let's just call it what it is 850 00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:29,680 Speaker 2: and a little chemical yoga. As long as you do 851 00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:31,880 Speaker 2: it in control, you're not driving who you hurt, and 852 00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:33,680 Speaker 2: except maybe yourself a little bit. Now, if it gets 853 00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:36,160 Speaker 2: to be a habit, different story. But nonetheless, these are 854 00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 2: the vices which adults are allowed to enjoy in the 855 00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,400 Speaker 2: Buckeye State and across this country of our steef off men. 856 00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:43,800 Speaker 2: It fine with it, So that's good. Is there anything 857 00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:47,000 Speaker 2: in here? Is this gonna let's rewind You may not 858 00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:48,920 Speaker 2: know the answer to this, but well, let's satisfy those 859 00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:50,600 Speaker 2: who the three companies that brought the suit in the 860 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:52,200 Speaker 2: first place. I mean, have you met with them? It's okay, 861 00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 2: what are your grievances? And this addresses them and less 862 00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 2: satisfy that lawsuit, so simply it goes away. 863 00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:02,000 Speaker 4: That's a good questions, There's some things in here that 864 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:06,160 Speaker 4: bothers the industry. So one of the big thing about 865 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:09,520 Speaker 4: the ballot in issues that has been a concern is 866 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:13,000 Speaker 4: the monopoly that it could created so that anybody in 867 00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:16,000 Speaker 4: the industry got to stay in the industry. We're limiting 868 00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:20,840 Speaker 4: the number of marijuana dispensaries. Well, this bill does the 869 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:24,680 Speaker 4: same thing. So it only's going to provide four hundred 870 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:27,040 Speaker 4: license to the four hundred people that are doing it now. 871 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:30,520 Speaker 4: So if Scott Sloan said, I want to have the 872 00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:34,120 Speaker 4: hemp score, well, it would be very difficult for a 873 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:36,880 Speaker 4: number of reasons. One, there's only there's no more licenses 874 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:38,920 Speaker 4: because we're giving them out to the people that are 875 00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:43,000 Speaker 4: already there. And number two, if there's a license, you're 876 00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:46,480 Speaker 4: going to stay seventy thousand dollars a year, and the 877 00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:48,839 Speaker 4: other guys that are already established or are are going 878 00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:51,960 Speaker 4: to pay ten thousand or fifteen thousand for their license. 879 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:55,680 Speaker 4: It doesn't really seem a capitalist thing that the pre 880 00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:59,880 Speaker 4: market that I mean, shouldn't we have let anybody that 881 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 4: provide the safe store to be able to sell it. 882 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:08,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, that that seems reasonable to me, and I think 883 00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:11,080 Speaker 2: that's a reasonable suggestion. We'll see what the industry's reaction 884 00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:11,400 Speaker 2: to that. 885 00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 3: Is. 886 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:13,920 Speaker 2: But but at the same time, we're also limiting it 887 00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:16,880 Speaker 2: to like four hundred damp outlets across the state with 888 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:20,000 Speaker 2: millions of people. You know, you talk about I guess 889 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:23,239 Speaker 2: capitalism and and you know, having a market there. And 890 00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:25,160 Speaker 2: I think hemp dispensers can they can't be with like 891 00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:27,239 Speaker 2: a mile each other or something like that. Why why such, 892 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:29,040 Speaker 2: Why the restrictions there? 893 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:32,319 Speaker 4: You know, I think the House tried to model some 894 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:39,719 Speaker 4: things that we did uh in in marijuana, and you know, 895 00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:45,560 Speaker 4: I think to prevent you don't want in downtown Cincinnati 896 00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:49,560 Speaker 4: every other store to be marijuana and hemp. And you know, 897 00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:52,719 Speaker 4: also in this bill, it allows the city townships to 898 00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 4: say I just don't want hemp, I just don't want marijuana. 899 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:57,480 Speaker 3: You can't come in, and that's. 900 00:42:57,320 --> 00:43:01,080 Speaker 4: Their right, but you know it would limit it that. 901 00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:04,120 Speaker 4: You know, a few months ago when I was testifying, 902 00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 4: I kind of threw people for a loophole and I said, 903 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:11,680 Speaker 4: I think we should deregulate marijuana within five years. Anybody 904 00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:13,759 Speaker 4: should be able to. I mean, if you can, if 905 00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 4: you have the money, and you can provide a store 906 00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:21,600 Speaker 4: that's and process it and grow it properly and under 907 00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:26,080 Speaker 4: the surveillance of the Cannabis Commission, go at it. If 908 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:29,360 Speaker 4: we really want to drive down prices and have a 909 00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:33,360 Speaker 4: free market, we should deregulate it. But that fell on 910 00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 4: deaf ear. 911 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:37,560 Speaker 2: One would think, because the market would control. But in 912 00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:39,799 Speaker 2: this case, you know, you have four hundred outlets for 913 00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:42,200 Speaker 2: a state that has damn near twelve million people. I'm 914 00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:44,239 Speaker 2: doing the math on that one. It doesn't math that much. Now. 915 00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:46,840 Speaker 2: Granted a lot of our state is rural, but I 916 00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:48,640 Speaker 2: just wonder if that's too few, how do you determine 917 00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:49,960 Speaker 2: that number. What's that even based on? 918 00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:55,080 Speaker 4: I think they looked at about how many stores are 919 00:43:55,120 --> 00:44:00,480 Speaker 4: currently out there, and to hold it artificially low in 920 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:06,040 Speaker 4: it benefits to current people, it does not benefit entrepreneurism out. 921 00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:06,359 Speaker 3: There at all. 922 00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:09,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you look at how little the stuff costs 923 00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:10,960 Speaker 2: in Michigan. It's because, man, I'll tell you, up there, 924 00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:12,759 Speaker 2: they have tons of it. Now, some may say, well 925 00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:15,640 Speaker 2: it's too much, but again you have a gold rush 926 00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 2: and opportunity for entrepreneurs to get into the game, and 927 00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:20,640 Speaker 2: so you'll see a lot of storefronts. What happens generally 928 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:23,839 Speaker 2: in the cycle of business then is those little fish 929 00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:26,239 Speaker 2: either can't figure out a business model to make it work, 930 00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:28,160 Speaker 2: they go out of business, which happens all the time 931 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:31,040 Speaker 2: to natural cycle things, or they get successful and they 932 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 2: get bought up by bigger fish and eventually, you know, 933 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:35,080 Speaker 2: you have a limited number of fish in the market 934 00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:38,480 Speaker 2: to control everything. So that but that's down the line, 935 00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:42,400 Speaker 2: and it seems like we're artificially blocking that market right there. 936 00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:44,840 Speaker 2: He is Ohio Senator Steve Hoffman on the show on 937 00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:48,200 Speaker 2: seven hundred WW the good news about this band and 938 00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:50,520 Speaker 2: how that affects you as if you enjoy the THHC 939 00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 2: laced beverages like at fifty West, for example, the sunflower 940 00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:56,880 Speaker 2: products are really good. This is this is going to 941 00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:59,680 Speaker 2: allow this to continue to occur. So for example, our 942 00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:04,439 Speaker 2: friends fifty West or any local company around here, they say, listen, 943 00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:06,640 Speaker 2: our beer sales. Craft beer is kind of it's dwindling. 944 00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:07,960 Speaker 2: It's starting to go down. Numbers are going now. We 945 00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:10,279 Speaker 2: had peak craft beer, but so many more people now 946 00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:12,640 Speaker 2: are enjoying these THHG lays drinks. They're going to still 947 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:14,759 Speaker 2: be able to sell them at a bar. The ones 948 00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:16,600 Speaker 2: with the higher amounts will have to be sold at 949 00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 2: a carry out. 950 00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 4: Correct more takeout from the bar. 951 00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:23,359 Speaker 3: Okay, So if you can't sell the. 952 00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:25,279 Speaker 4: Ten milligrams to drink for the bar. 953 00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 3: You have to take that out. It's the way it's. 954 00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:31,560 Speaker 2: Currently written good because that was a concern. They're said, hey, listen, 955 00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:33,239 Speaker 2: craft beer is dying, and now you guys are going 956 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:36,560 Speaker 2: to put this ninety day moratorium on creating crafting product 957 00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:38,400 Speaker 2: and selling it. I'm going to go out of business. 958 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:41,320 Speaker 2: And fortunately, I think what the governor did, and I 959 00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:43,879 Speaker 2: disagree with holding up the children as a reason why 960 00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:46,520 Speaker 2: to do this an extreme example, but he did what 961 00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:49,279 Speaker 2: he set out to do and that has forced the 962 00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:52,560 Speaker 2: legislature and force the lawmakers in Columbus to act on 963 00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:57,080 Speaker 2: and do something about this loophole and specifically regulating this product. 964 00:45:57,120 --> 00:45:59,080 Speaker 2: And I get if government comes in, we need to 965 00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:02,480 Speaker 2: regulate things and make sure it's safe and fair and 966 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:04,680 Speaker 2: also make sure it's not falling in the hands of 967 00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:07,960 Speaker 2: the underage. And that's what regulatory regulatory framework does. I 968 00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:11,799 Speaker 2: understand that it's just manned the legislature dragging their feet 969 00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:13,799 Speaker 2: on this thing, and it makes no sense to me 970 00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:16,480 Speaker 2: because the end result is people wind up losing out. 971 00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:19,160 Speaker 2: And also, you know, you're making business have to work 972 00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:22,280 Speaker 2: harder to work around the slow pace of the government. 973 00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:26,040 Speaker 2: I understand that fortunately we had in this case the 974 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:28,440 Speaker 2: legislature moving forward and saying, okay, we're going to come 975 00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:30,799 Speaker 2: up with some frameworks here and maybe this will work 976 00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:31,480 Speaker 2: out for everyone. 977 00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:31,880 Speaker 3: You know. 978 00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:33,560 Speaker 2: One of the other things I saw here, and I 979 00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:36,040 Speaker 2: saw kind of the outline of the of the code itself. 980 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:41,160 Speaker 2: It allows this little municipalities, as you said, to ban 981 00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:45,239 Speaker 2: happen marijuana dispensers. For in Mason, for example, long ago 982 00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:47,440 Speaker 2: they said we don't want this here, still not there. 983 00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:49,600 Speaker 2: But at the same time, it also prohibits them from 984 00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:52,400 Speaker 2: taxing these products. So is there a rationale there for 985 00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:54,440 Speaker 2: giving cities the power to ban but not the tax. 986 00:46:57,280 --> 00:47:00,239 Speaker 4: We don't want to drive the price up from one. 987 00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:03,719 Speaker 4: He has always been the philosophy, especially on marijuana, that 988 00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:08,600 Speaker 4: if you you know, let them packed. You know, in 989 00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:12,120 Speaker 4: this bill, we're doing what the municipalities want. 990 00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:13,200 Speaker 3: Because if you go back to. 991 00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:18,160 Speaker 4: The Vallid initiative, the valid initiative taxed it at ten 992 00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:21,200 Speaker 4: percent and then put thirty six to the locals. But 993 00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:23,840 Speaker 4: there's a flaw in it that did not release the 994 00:47:23,920 --> 00:47:26,200 Speaker 4: money to the locals. So over the last almost two 995 00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:30,359 Speaker 4: years they haven't gotten the money. And so this bill 996 00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:34,400 Speaker 4: would keep that intact and then given a mechanism to 997 00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:38,240 Speaker 4: release the money. It would also add a ten percent 998 00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:44,879 Speaker 4: tax on a hint product. If that's constitutional. We're still 999 00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:48,160 Speaker 4: working through that because you're not allowed to tax things 1000 00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:50,279 Speaker 4: from out of that come from out of state at 1001 00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:54,239 Speaker 4: a higher rate and attack your own stuff as a 1002 00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:58,680 Speaker 4: federal law. So we'll see if that that'll work out. 1003 00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:01,880 Speaker 2: For us, all right, And then in the regulatory as mean, 1004 00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:04,319 Speaker 2: it's kind of wonky. I suppose as I've read through 1005 00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:06,799 Speaker 2: the note on this and said, okay, well, we've got 1006 00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 2: these different regulatory frameworks, right, We've got the hemp dispensaries 1007 00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:14,120 Speaker 2: or under cannabis control, the drinkables under liquor control. Does 1008 00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:17,800 Speaker 2: that create confusion and inefficiency? 1009 00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:20,279 Speaker 4: It can? I mean, if you're a business that has 1010 00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:24,080 Speaker 4: two if you do, if you're if you're a hint 1011 00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:27,480 Speaker 4: and you have gummies and all sorts of ointments and 1012 00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:30,240 Speaker 4: stuff like that, and you also have beverages, you're answering 1013 00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:34,160 Speaker 4: to two masters. Now right right, it does. But you 1014 00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:38,239 Speaker 4: look at it at Kroger's or a grocery store, you 1015 00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:40,799 Speaker 4: know they have they have to facto license, they have 1016 00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:44,480 Speaker 4: a liquor license, they have a pharmacy, they're they're answering 1017 00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:48,120 Speaker 4: the multil a agencies in the state of Ohio and 1018 00:48:48,160 --> 00:48:52,840 Speaker 4: federal agencies also. But sometimes that's that's the way it 1019 00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:56,400 Speaker 4: works out. If that's the business line, you need one. 1020 00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:58,759 Speaker 2: Of the other things in here. Steve Hoffmann relative to 1021 00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:01,520 Speaker 2: the regulatory structure, I was talking to our friends at 1022 00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:03,680 Speaker 2: fifty West about this after this ed it came down 1023 00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:05,520 Speaker 2: from the governor of the ninety day ban and what 1024 00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:07,399 Speaker 2: that would do to business, and it's horrible. So they're 1025 00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:10,879 Speaker 2: they're they're cranking out the sunflower product right now, which 1026 00:49:10,920 --> 00:49:12,520 Speaker 2: is what we're talking about, and a lot of people 1027 00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:15,480 Speaker 2: enjoy that. Of course, there's other brewers and manufacturers that 1028 00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:18,759 Speaker 2: do this locally, and God bless them because I like 1029 00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:21,080 Speaker 2: when people make money. It makes them make pay taxes 1030 00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:24,480 Speaker 2: and everybody's happy, especially when it's something leisurely and a 1031 00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:28,200 Speaker 2: vice like drinking an adult beverage. So this will require 1032 00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:33,279 Speaker 2: those companies, the cannabinoid manufacturers to have sales toritories for distributors, 1033 00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:38,400 Speaker 2: kind of like alcohol distribution. Does that limit market efficiency 1034 00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:40,239 Speaker 2: and competition or is that like, hey, we do this 1035 00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:42,520 Speaker 2: for alcohols, would be fair to do it to these 1036 00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:43,279 Speaker 2: products as well. 1037 00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:46,480 Speaker 4: Well, I think that was their philosophy. They do it 1038 00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:49,400 Speaker 4: for alcohol. You know, there's a thought that we should 1039 00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:52,839 Speaker 4: to me, it's a disadvantage the vast majority that does 1040 00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:57,200 Speaker 4: the hamp products in beverages or the craft brewers. And 1041 00:49:57,239 --> 00:50:00,560 Speaker 4: you look at ryan Geist there in Cincinnati, and I 1042 00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:02,359 Speaker 4: don't know how many they do, but just say they're 1043 00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:04,920 Speaker 4: going to do. They have you know, ten bars in 1044 00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:08,799 Speaker 4: Cincinnati and twenty retail outlets that they sell it. They 1045 00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:11,359 Speaker 4: would be more efficient to load their truck up at 1046 00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:15,239 Speaker 4: their factory and drive to those places rather than to 1047 00:50:15,280 --> 00:50:18,920 Speaker 4: take that truck to the distributor, which might be in 1048 00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:22,880 Speaker 4: Middletown and then that truck will then disperse thing to it. 1049 00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:27,680 Speaker 4: Certainly wouldn't be as efficient and probably cost effective. So 1050 00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:31,280 Speaker 4: because it's they tend to be more on the smaller scale. 1051 00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:34,480 Speaker 4: That's certainly not the Budweisers that are doing it. 1052 00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:37,279 Speaker 2: All right, right, Steve Hoffman, all right, So this is 1053 00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:40,160 Speaker 2: just kind of like written in pencil, not pen yet. 1054 00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:42,200 Speaker 2: What is the timeline for getting this done? You think 1055 00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:43,200 Speaker 2: what happens next? 1056 00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:46,759 Speaker 5: Well, the so. 1057 00:50:48,480 --> 00:50:49,839 Speaker 3: The house passed it out. 1058 00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:53,280 Speaker 4: You know, if we sent that over there in March 1059 00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:55,879 Speaker 4: so they've been sitting on it for seven months. So 1060 00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:58,520 Speaker 4: the inactivity was not from the from the from the 1061 00:50:58,520 --> 00:51:02,480 Speaker 4: Senate standpoint. But I do not think that the Senate 1062 00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:05,200 Speaker 4: is going to agree with the current form. I think 1063 00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:07,799 Speaker 4: probably in the next two or three weeks, you know, 1064 00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:13,920 Speaker 4: certainly before Thanksgiving, we will sit down and take the 1065 00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:17,600 Speaker 4: good on both sides and come up with something that 1066 00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:21,600 Speaker 4: both of us in the industry can is reasonable to 1067 00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:25,279 Speaker 4: be safe and have an efficient industry here in the 1068 00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:25,880 Speaker 4: state of Lahare. 1069 00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:28,880 Speaker 2: So in the meantime, everything works away, it was working before. 1070 00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:31,320 Speaker 2: The good news is you don't know what about. 1071 00:51:32,320 --> 00:51:36,360 Speaker 4: Right with with the with the temporary restraining order. Everything's 1072 00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:37,160 Speaker 4: working us before. 1073 00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:39,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then you'll fill the void and we'll never notice, 1074 00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:41,719 Speaker 2: which is how I like things to work. It's like 1075 00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:44,920 Speaker 2: when my phone or my tablet or my computer updates. 1076 00:51:45,120 --> 00:51:47,360 Speaker 2: It does it in the dark night when I'm dead asleep, Steve, 1077 00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:49,040 Speaker 2: and I wake up, and everything's the way it should be. 1078 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:50,280 Speaker 2: That's what I want us. 1079 00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:53,680 Speaker 4: Well, you you hope that's the way it works, because 1080 00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:55,080 Speaker 4: you're in trouble. 1081 00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:57,480 Speaker 2: Well, if next time we talk and we're talking about 1082 00:51:57,480 --> 00:51:59,719 Speaker 2: the blue screen of death and we've got a real 1083 00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:03,040 Speaker 2: but hopefully all this happens behind the scene and you 1084 00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:04,800 Speaker 2: can go to a bar or a restaurant in order to 1085 00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:09,040 Speaker 2: your favorite CBD beverage. Steve Hoffman, Senator Steve Hoffman from 1086 00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:12,160 Speaker 2: a Tip City, I appreciate your help on this too 1087 00:52:12,239 --> 00:52:14,080 Speaker 2: and help them figure this out. It's a complex issue, 1088 00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:16,759 Speaker 2: but we need more joy in life, not less joy. 1089 00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:20,080 Speaker 2: But if you know drinking a THC infused seltzer is 1090 00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:22,680 Speaker 2: not your joy, well it certainly as someone else's, and 1091 00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:25,399 Speaker 2: damn it as an American, as an Ohioan. I want 1092 00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:26,919 Speaker 2: to fight and make sure and I know you do too, 1093 00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:29,240 Speaker 2: that that people can do that and enjoy that, provided 1094 00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:31,359 Speaker 2: they're twenty one or older and doing it responsibly. All 1095 00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:33,759 Speaker 2: the best to you, my friend. Thanks again, you take 1096 00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:40,240 Speaker 2: care of that. Take care, I say, more intoxicating beverages, edibles, tintures, vapes, 1097 00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:44,760 Speaker 2: et cetera, not less. I'm on the pro chemical yoga 1098 00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:47,960 Speaker 2: side of life. Were I'm a little eye voted sticker. Look, 1099 00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:49,600 Speaker 2: we got to get a news update. And why do 1100 00:52:49,680 --> 00:52:53,160 Speaker 2: we enjoy adult beverages and other things that make us relaxed, 1101 00:52:53,440 --> 00:52:56,759 Speaker 2: Well because of real life streussors. Biggest stress or we're 1102 00:52:56,760 --> 00:52:59,320 Speaker 2: facing in Cincinnati. Of course, is what the hell is 1103 00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:02,680 Speaker 2: happening with crime? I'm and the police chief and how 1104 00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:05,959 Speaker 2: is this whole thing handled by the way, I say 1105 00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:10,520 Speaker 2: not well, I would say horribly by this administration. Julie Bouki, 1106 00:53:10,600 --> 00:53:13,359 Speaker 2: our career, Shirpa spent a lifetime in HR. She knows 1107 00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:15,799 Speaker 2: all how this stuff should work, and when it doesn't work, 1108 00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:17,759 Speaker 2: she pokes holes in it. She's going to do that. 1109 00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:21,120 Speaker 2: Next is Julie on the job Scott's loan seven hundred WT. 1110 00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:29,040 Speaker 1: Giving you a vocational leg up on everyone else.

Julie Bouki. 1112 00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:34,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, man, I always love it when a topic comes up, 1113 00:53:34,800 --> 00:53:37,680 Speaker 2: something comes up that's ripped from the pages of today's headlines. 1114 00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:40,520 Speaker 2: And of course that would be what's transpired here in 1115 00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:43,640 Speaker 2: the last three days with the chief Terry Thiji. And 1116 00:53:44,239 --> 00:53:47,120 Speaker 2: she was summoned backed you may recall last week from Denver. 1117 00:53:47,200 --> 00:53:49,839 Speaker 2: She's at a conference in Denver Police chiefs conference. They 1118 00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:51,600 Speaker 2: tell you got to get come back. We have urgent 1119 00:53:51,880 --> 00:53:55,479 Speaker 2: business regarding the safety of Cincinnati. Now what in urgent 1120 00:53:55,520 --> 00:53:57,919 Speaker 2: business I was? When no one knows because there's really 1121 00:53:57,960 --> 00:54:01,200 Speaker 2: nothing happening wasn't a shooting like we had a Fountain Square. 1122 00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:04,799 Speaker 2: We had the Thursday night occurrence, but that was still 1123 00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:07,200 Speaker 2: being investigated. It wasn't like a big mass casually event 1124 00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:10,120 Speaker 2: she had to come back for, thank god. And immediately 1125 00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:11,960 Speaker 2: it got out that well, they're going to fire her, 1126 00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:15,040 Speaker 2: and then it turned into a paid administrative leave and 1127 00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:18,319 Speaker 2: there were no answers coming from city Hall relative to well, 1128 00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:20,520 Speaker 2: what did she do or did she not do that 1129 00:54:20,680 --> 00:54:23,520 Speaker 2: caused her her job essentially, and she's hanging limbo. She's 1130 00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:25,759 Speaker 2: not been fired, she's still unpaid leave, although we have 1131 00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:28,160 Speaker 2: an interim chief that's in the fact right now and 1132 00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:30,840 Speaker 2: the end results are paying her. We had her attorneys 1133 00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:33,680 Speaker 2: speak live on the radio yesterday at ten am about 1134 00:54:33,719 --> 00:54:37,200 Speaker 2: what was transpiring that she actually had. There was no 1135 00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:41,000 Speaker 2: cause to do this whatsoever. She was always never really 1136 00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:43,600 Speaker 2: anything bad in her record of thirty five years law enforcement. 1137 00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:46,360 Speaker 2: She's the chief. We have a crime spree. But is 1138 00:54:46,400 --> 00:54:49,279 Speaker 2: that relative to the policy set forth by this administration 1139 00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:51,960 Speaker 2: and draft at pure vault or is that Chief Thigi 1140 00:54:52,040 --> 00:54:54,680 Speaker 2: to the point where what does chief interim Chief Henny 1141 00:54:54,719 --> 00:54:57,360 Speaker 2: get you? That Chief Thiji doesn't get you, and no 1142 00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:00,000 Speaker 2: one can answer that question. It is a cluster bleief 1143 00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:03,640 Speaker 2: and a dumpster fire and a tire fire all in one. 1144 00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:06,600 Speaker 2: Julie Balk, Welcome back.

I have 1148 00:55:16,120 --> 00:55:18,600 Speaker 6: strong opinions that I'm not willing that I'm not unwilling 1149 00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:21,839 Speaker 6: to that I'm not unwilling to share. So that's where 1150 00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:23,040 Speaker 6: we are. And yeah, you're right. 1151 00:55:23,160 --> 00:55:23,839 Speaker 3: This is. 1152 00:55:25,920 --> 00:55:30,759 Speaker 6: First of all, anytime you have something that happens at 1153 00:55:30,800 --> 00:55:34,080 Speaker 6: this level in a city where everybody's got their hands 1154 00:55:34,080 --> 00:55:37,600 Speaker 6: in the pie in terms of everybody has a stake. 1155 00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:41,920 Speaker 6: When you really think about there's the community, there's the government, 1156 00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:46,799 Speaker 6: there's the FOP, there's you know, the police officers, there's 1157 00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:51,120 Speaker 6: there's all these different constituencies, the media, in the fact 1158 00:55:51,160 --> 00:55:53,680 Speaker 6: that we do have an election for mayor coming up 1159 00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:58,080 Speaker 6: in two weeks, there's all of those things. It's almost 1160 00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:01,239 Speaker 6: like they just get thrown into a call ldren using 1161 00:56:01,239 --> 00:56:05,960 Speaker 6: a Halloween theme and stirred up and so there are 1162 00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:10,239 Speaker 6: there's so much we don't know here. What we do 1163 00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:16,319 Speaker 6: know is that the crime problem, whatever your perception of 1164 00:56:16,360 --> 00:56:20,000 Speaker 6: it is, is never just the fault of one person. 1165 00:56:22,320 --> 00:56:23,319 Speaker 3: But when you are the. 1166 00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:28,000 Speaker 6: Leader of an organization, of an organization, you will all 1167 00:56:28,239 --> 00:56:32,120 Speaker 6: you will often take the slings and arrows, whether you 1168 00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:36,160 Speaker 6: are beloved by your group or not. That's just the 1169 00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:42,400 Speaker 6: nature of being in a high level position, in a 1170 00:56:42,440 --> 00:56:46,040 Speaker 6: high level position, in a high visibility role, where there 1171 00:56:46,040 --> 00:56:49,239 Speaker 6: are so many different people with stakes in it, and 1172 00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:52,320 Speaker 6: it's you know, I was reading a bunch of stubbs 1173 00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:54,400 Speaker 6: and watching a bunch of videos this morning in preparation 1174 00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:57,560 Speaker 6: for this and was reminded that the city is still 1175 00:56:57,600 --> 00:57:00,359 Speaker 6: in an ongoing dispute with the past fire chief. Yep, 1176 00:57:00,680 --> 00:57:03,080 Speaker 6: and that's been continuing. 1177 00:57:03,880 --> 00:57:07,400 Speaker 2: And Steven Ann, the guy who represents Terry Fiji, also 1178 00:57:07,520 --> 00:57:10,960 Speaker 2: represents former chief Washington. So it's sound employment and it's 1179 00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:13,799 Speaker 2: all battled out in the public eye, unlike typically where 1180 00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:16,120 Speaker 2: we all work and where you work, if you're listening, 1181 00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:19,000 Speaker 2: there may be a regime change, there may be layoffs. 1182 00:57:19,080 --> 00:57:20,919 Speaker 2: We just did that, and there's no easy way. We've 1183 00:57:20,920 --> 00:57:23,080 Speaker 2: often talked about the fire people. You call in one 1184 00:57:23,160 --> 00:57:25,320 Speaker 2: at a time on firing day, and then you just 1185 00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:27,880 Speaker 2: wait for your name to be called you bring everybody 1186 00:57:27,880 --> 00:57:29,800 Speaker 2: in one big cattle call and fire group of people. 1187 00:57:29,880 --> 00:57:32,800 Speaker 2: That's in humane as well. There's no real good way 1188 00:57:32,840 --> 00:57:35,120 Speaker 2: to do this. But the way this whole thing is handled, 1189 00:57:35,120 --> 00:57:37,240 Speaker 2: because it's in the public eye, it's the government that 1190 00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:40,120 Speaker 2: technically works for us because the people are the government 1191 00:57:41,120 --> 00:57:43,440 Speaker 2: a lot. I'd safe to say every man and woman 1192 00:57:43,440 --> 00:57:45,840 Speaker 2: who's following the story is not pleased at how it's 1193 00:57:45,840 --> 00:57:47,720 Speaker 2: been handled so far. So this is a different thing. 1194 00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:50,200 Speaker 2: And then, as you mentioned, politics are involved here too, 1195 00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:52,760 Speaker 2: because in an election coming up, how does this help 1196 00:57:53,080 --> 00:57:55,400 Speaker 2: have to add peival to get re elected or doesn't it. 1197 00:57:55,600 --> 00:57:57,200 Speaker 2: I think he thinks he's got in the bag. It 1198 00:57:57,240 --> 00:58:00,440 Speaker 2: really doesn't matter. I'm just curious to see what happens 1199 00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:02,960 Speaker 2: at this point. Let's get into that, Julie. If you're 1200 00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:06,120 Speaker 2: on Terry's team, Terry Thiji, what are you going to 1201 00:58:06,120 --> 00:58:07,360 Speaker 2: get out of this? You're not going to get your 1202 00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:08,120 Speaker 2: job back, are you? 1203 00:58:09,520 --> 00:58:09,760 Speaker 3: Yeah? 1204 00:58:09,800 --> 00:58:13,200 Speaker 6: So if she were sitting with me right now, and 1205 00:58:13,280 --> 00:58:15,960 Speaker 6: I've met her several times, you know, but if she 1206 00:58:16,080 --> 00:58:21,400 Speaker 6: was sitting asking my advice, very she's asking my advice, 1207 00:58:21,480 --> 00:58:22,920 Speaker 6: that's what I would say. I said, what do you 1208 00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:25,520 Speaker 6: want out of this? If you get your job back, 1209 00:58:26,520 --> 00:58:32,000 Speaker 6: it's going to be under incredibly increased scrutiny and attention. 1210 00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:34,000 Speaker 3: You're going to be put. 1211 00:58:33,880 --> 00:58:38,080 Speaker 6: Back into your job against the wishes of the people 1212 00:58:38,120 --> 00:58:41,440 Speaker 6: who are responsible for hiring and firing, which you know 1213 00:58:41,480 --> 00:58:44,080 Speaker 6: since two thousand and one that falls under the city manager. 1214 00:58:44,720 --> 00:58:47,880 Speaker 6: And so what what are you trying to get out 1215 00:58:47,880 --> 00:58:49,920 Speaker 6: of this? I don't get the sense. And this is 1216 00:58:50,040 --> 00:58:53,440 Speaker 6: just me kind of reading between the lines, which is 1217 00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:57,560 Speaker 6: a little dangerous, but is that It's not about she's 1218 00:58:57,600 --> 00:59:02,080 Speaker 6: trying to get some big severance package. It's about I 1219 00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:07,920 Speaker 6: am being targeted for something that is not that of 1220 00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:11,520 Speaker 6: course I have some responsibility for, but it's not entirely 1221 00:59:12,160 --> 00:59:16,120 Speaker 6: my responsibility. There are when you look at these problems 1222 00:59:16,160 --> 00:59:18,120 Speaker 6: that have come up, And I just want to say 1223 00:59:18,120 --> 00:59:20,880 Speaker 6: that last night I lived downtown and last night I 1224 00:59:21,000 --> 00:59:22,920 Speaker 6: was out walking around and it was dark, and I 1225 00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:26,120 Speaker 6: was down by Fountain Square and I saw no less 1226 00:59:26,120 --> 00:59:28,560 Speaker 6: than twelve police officers, no less. I was counting them, 1227 00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:31,640 Speaker 6: which then made me say, Okay, we know there's a 1228 00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:35,600 Speaker 6: staffing shortage, we know where are they not showing up 1229 00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:38,480 Speaker 6: where they need to be showing up. And so I'm 1230 00:59:38,600 --> 00:59:42,800 Speaker 6: very sympathetic to It's not her fault. It's not the 1231 00:59:42,840 --> 00:59:45,560 Speaker 6: officers on the street. They can't be everywhere at once. 1232 00:59:45,680 --> 00:59:48,960 Speaker 6: It's not all the mayor's fault. There's a lot of 1233 00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:51,720 Speaker 6: responsibility that lies in the home and with the community. 1234 00:59:52,440 --> 00:59:55,919 Speaker 6: And any time you have something like this that's such 1235 00:59:55,920 --> 00:59:59,520 Speaker 6: a hot potato, you've got Corey Bowman, the other candidate 1236 00:59:59,560 --> 01:00:04,760 Speaker 6: for mayor, chiming in. It's it's almost like, and I 1237 01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:08,560 Speaker 6: hate to say this, but in almost every situation, even 1238 01:00:08,600 --> 01:00:13,240 Speaker 6: in a corporate situation, someone is going to take the fall. 1239 01:00:13,480 --> 01:00:14,000 Speaker 7: Is it right? 1240 01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:18,120 Speaker 6: No, of course not, but it is. It is what 1241 01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:20,840 Speaker 6: it is. And I was thinking about this because when 1242 01:00:20,840 --> 01:00:23,280 Speaker 6: I went back when I was in HR, we had 1243 01:00:23,320 --> 01:00:26,160 Speaker 6: this guy who he has passed away, so I always 1244 01:00:26,160 --> 01:00:28,200 Speaker 6: feel like I can tell the story freely. He ran 1245 01:00:28,240 --> 01:00:31,720 Speaker 6: the department, and he was just a massive creep, like 1246 01:00:31,800 --> 01:00:36,440 Speaker 6: Harvey Weinstein creep, and everybody knew it's but his numbers 1247 01:00:36,440 --> 01:00:38,960 Speaker 6: were really good, his results were really good, and so 1248 01:00:39,240 --> 01:00:42,600 Speaker 6: nobody everyone was like, uh huh, huh uh huh when 1249 01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:45,160 Speaker 6: you try to say, here's what's going on. And he 1250 01:00:45,240 --> 01:00:47,840 Speaker 6: was supposed to lose Cannon in so many different ways, 1251 01:00:48,120 --> 01:00:53,120 Speaker 6: and nobody wanted to hear it because the train was 1252 01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:54,880 Speaker 6: running on the tracks at least from. 1253 01:00:54,800 --> 01:00:55,680 Speaker 3: A results point. 1254 01:00:56,280 --> 01:00:58,760 Speaker 6: The minute the train started go off the tracks, he 1255 01:00:58,880 --> 01:01:02,680 Speaker 6: became enemy member one and he was fired. I'm like, Okay, 1256 01:01:03,280 --> 01:01:07,920 Speaker 6: you're the same guy doing the same creepy thing today 1257 01:01:08,040 --> 01:01:10,200 Speaker 6: that you were yesterday. But now all of a sudden, 1258 01:01:11,160 --> 01:01:14,560 Speaker 6: you know it's a problem. And so when you know so, 1259 01:01:14,640 --> 01:01:17,440 Speaker 6: it's it's human nature. Whether you're in the police department 1260 01:01:17,640 --> 01:01:22,760 Speaker 6: or Kroger or anywhere, look at look at the top 1261 01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:26,640 Speaker 6: person is always in the crosshairs. And you know, I 1262 01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:29,600 Speaker 6: was reading through all these things, listening to people's comments, 1263 01:01:29,600 --> 01:01:32,240 Speaker 6: people in the community, and there's a lot of support 1264 01:01:32,320 --> 01:01:35,080 Speaker 6: for her in the community talking about her policing style. 1265 01:01:35,760 --> 01:01:40,120 Speaker 6: But I also saw some videos from you know, our 1266 01:01:40,400 --> 01:01:45,720 Speaker 6: buddy Ken Cober talking about his funds for the interim chief, 1267 01:01:45,760 --> 01:01:49,920 Speaker 6: Adam Henny. So that availed message that says, wow, we're 1268 01:01:49,960 --> 01:01:53,160 Speaker 6: so glad to have Adam Henny because maybe the leader 1269 01:01:53,200 --> 01:01:56,560 Speaker 6: of the rank and file in the FOP didn't respect 1270 01:01:56,560 --> 01:01:59,720 Speaker 6: her as a leader, and the city saying ineffective leadership, 1271 01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:03,760 Speaker 6: and so if you're going to lead with that as 1272 01:02:03,800 --> 01:02:06,680 Speaker 6: a as a reason, then you've got to be able 1273 01:02:06,680 --> 01:02:09,720 Speaker 6: to back that up when this goes to court, because it. 1274 01:02:09,680 --> 01:02:14,080 Speaker 2: Will well there's there's the thing is Julie Balgare curusher. 1275 01:02:14,160 --> 01:02:16,800 Speaker 2: But Julie on the job this morning, every Wednesday morning, 1276 01:02:16,800 --> 01:02:19,400 Speaker 2: this time with Solny on seven hundred WLW was the 1277 01:02:19,440 --> 01:02:21,160 Speaker 2: biggest story. Of course, that would be Terry Figi and 1278 01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:23,280 Speaker 2: this is perfect for her because it is hr and 1279 01:02:23,280 --> 01:02:25,600 Speaker 2: how it's mishandled and how no one knows why the 1280 01:02:25,640 --> 01:02:28,920 Speaker 2: reasons why Chief Thiji was well not even fired at this. 1281 01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:32,600 Speaker 2: That's the other thing is paid administrative leave. If you're fired, 1282 01:02:32,640 --> 01:02:35,440 Speaker 2: you're fired. Why why don't they just drop the X 1283 01:02:35,480 --> 01:02:38,120 Speaker 2: and say okay, it's now Adam Henny. That's another thing 1284 01:02:38,240 --> 01:02:39,600 Speaker 2: is why prolong this? 1285 01:02:41,480 --> 01:02:43,880 Speaker 6: You know? And I don't. The thing we don't know 1286 01:02:43,960 --> 01:02:47,560 Speaker 6: what are the terms of the contract. Someone did say 1287 01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:52,280 Speaker 6: that in the contract she a couple of sayings that 1288 01:02:52,360 --> 01:02:55,000 Speaker 6: she's entitled to if she were to leave, and I 1289 01:02:55,000 --> 01:02:59,440 Speaker 6: don't think se is mentioned, so it could be. And 1290 01:02:59,480 --> 01:03:03,760 Speaker 6: this is weird where this is what the previous fire chief. 1291 01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:07,960 Speaker 6: One of his claims is I did not get due process. Okay, 1292 01:03:08,240 --> 01:03:10,680 Speaker 6: so what does that look like? And so you can 1293 01:03:10,720 --> 01:03:13,560 Speaker 6: either when it comes to what is due process. Let's 1294 01:03:13,600 --> 01:03:16,800 Speaker 6: say for firing a police chief, for a fire chief. 1295 01:03:16,880 --> 01:03:18,440 Speaker 6: Let's just pull this out of the air, because that's 1296 01:03:18,440 --> 01:03:20,160 Speaker 6: what we've got in front of it. What does that 1297 01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:23,160 Speaker 6: look like? What does due process look like? My opinion 1298 01:03:23,160 --> 01:03:25,480 Speaker 6: of it might be very different from yours. So is 1299 01:03:25,560 --> 01:03:30,200 Speaker 6: that review of all of the reasoning and the evidence, 1300 01:03:30,280 --> 01:03:35,040 Speaker 6: bipartisan committee? Is that a period of time in which 1301 01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:37,720 Speaker 6: people get to get their act together, like maybe sixty days, 1302 01:03:37,720 --> 01:03:40,800 Speaker 6: where people can gather their thoughts. So what is the purpose? 1303 01:03:40,880 --> 01:03:43,720 Speaker 6: There has to be a purpose. I don't know if 1304 01:03:43,760 --> 01:03:47,040 Speaker 6: they thought when she was being put on paid administrative 1305 01:03:47,120 --> 01:03:50,120 Speaker 6: leave that she would quit, but they had to know 1306 01:03:51,240 --> 01:03:55,760 Speaker 6: that this was coming no big surprise. And so from 1307 01:03:55,760 --> 01:03:59,360 Speaker 6: a strategy standpoint, if you're the city, you have to 1308 01:03:59,360 --> 01:04:01,360 Speaker 6: get in the room with all the people who have 1309 01:04:01,400 --> 01:04:04,880 Speaker 6: their fingers in this and say, okay, so what does 1310 01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:07,040 Speaker 6: the contract say? Are we living by the terms of 1311 01:04:07,080 --> 01:04:09,960 Speaker 6: the contract? And do we generally operate? 1312 01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:10,240 Speaker 5: So? 1313 01:04:10,560 --> 01:04:14,400 Speaker 6: Are we generally operating the same with everybody? 1314 01:04:14,480 --> 01:04:14,800 Speaker 2: Yes? 1315 01:04:15,120 --> 01:04:16,120 Speaker 3: Are we being fair? 1316 01:04:16,240 --> 01:04:19,280 Speaker 6: What is our evidence that she's an ineffective leader? Who 1317 01:04:19,360 --> 01:04:22,360 Speaker 6: says so? And why now not? 1318 01:04:22,960 --> 01:04:26,240 Speaker 2: What's the evaluation? And it's like, if she's enforcing the 1319 01:04:26,280 --> 01:04:28,720 Speaker 2: policies that our policies are placed in by the people 1320 01:04:28,760 --> 01:04:31,680 Speaker 2: above her, and she just enforces the policies and the 1321 01:04:31,720 --> 01:04:33,920 Speaker 2: dictates of the office, so she doesn't control that. But 1322 01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:35,560 Speaker 2: we know that in politics there's a lot of people 1323 01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:37,680 Speaker 2: that follow the sword for the people above them, and 1324 01:04:37,720 --> 01:04:40,240 Speaker 2: then they're made whole later when no one's paying attention, 1325 01:04:40,280 --> 01:04:42,840 Speaker 2: and God only knows what that includes. But I also 1326 01:04:42,920 --> 01:04:45,640 Speaker 2: heard too that there is no non disclosure agreement here, 1327 01:04:45,680 --> 01:04:47,720 Speaker 2: so you got to get her to sign an NDA. 1328 01:04:48,800 --> 01:04:51,240 Speaker 2: And as you know, NDAs can be costly because if 1329 01:04:51,240 --> 01:04:54,560 Speaker 2: your chief theeves, you probably know some things and have 1330 01:04:54,680 --> 01:04:58,960 Speaker 2: evidence that are going to make the administration, namely share 1331 01:04:59,080 --> 01:05:02,120 Speaker 2: long the city manage and most likely have to appear 1332 01:05:02,160 --> 01:05:04,240 Speaker 2: of all but others. You've got some dirt there, and 1333 01:05:04,240 --> 01:05:06,480 Speaker 2: and to make people like this shut up, you got 1334 01:05:06,520 --> 01:05:09,200 Speaker 2: to cut them a big check. So the question is, Julie, 1335 01:05:09,200 --> 01:05:11,360 Speaker 2: how big a check are we talking? And am I 1336 01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:13,360 Speaker 2: wrong about that analysis? 1337 01:05:13,680 --> 01:05:18,360 Speaker 6: No, no, you're not wrong. I think the decision before 1338 01:05:18,440 --> 01:05:21,760 Speaker 6: anything happens, before you say get back from Denver today 1339 01:05:21,760 --> 01:05:26,160 Speaker 6: instead of two days from now, which seems like why arbitrary? 1340 01:05:26,160 --> 01:05:27,000 Speaker 2: It's arbitrary. 1341 01:05:27,680 --> 01:05:30,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, you have to say, Okay, what's worst case? 1342 01:05:30,040 --> 01:05:30,240 Speaker 3: Here? 1343 01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:33,960 Speaker 6: What it's worst case she sueses, all this stuff becomes public. 1344 01:05:34,320 --> 01:05:37,640 Speaker 6: How do we Because if you didn't think she was 1345 01:05:37,680 --> 01:05:39,120 Speaker 6: going to file a lawsuit. 1346 01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:41,360 Speaker 3: You have not been paying attention, right because. 1347 01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:44,360 Speaker 6: It's and so I don't I don't know. I mean, 1348 01:05:44,400 --> 01:05:48,280 Speaker 6: it's just it makes the way it looks and I 1349 01:05:48,360 --> 01:05:50,919 Speaker 6: always say, Okay, we don't know everything, but the way 1350 01:05:51,000 --> 01:05:54,600 Speaker 6: it looks to the community is there's this handle in 1351 01:05:54,640 --> 01:05:59,000 Speaker 6: a chaotic manner and a non thoughtful man that brings 1352 01:05:59,040 --> 01:06:03,840 Speaker 6: in the bring that considers all the possible outcomes. Because 1353 01:06:03,880 --> 01:06:06,840 Speaker 6: now you potentially have her and a lawsuit sitting out 1354 01:06:06,880 --> 01:06:10,720 Speaker 6: there next to Michael Washington's lawsuit, which you've been going 1355 01:06:10,800 --> 01:06:15,120 Speaker 6: on for years now. And now what if they have 1356 01:06:15,600 --> 01:06:18,040 Speaker 6: if they end up for a seventh tape? Where's that 1357 01:06:18,160 --> 01:06:19,320 Speaker 6: where's that money coming from? 1358 01:06:19,520 --> 01:06:21,200 Speaker 2: Yeah? I don't know how much longer you can delay. 1359 01:06:21,240 --> 01:06:22,720 Speaker 2: You you've been on that side of the desk of 1360 01:06:22,720 --> 01:06:25,560 Speaker 2: the NDAs and stuff in this for anyone listening. If 1361 01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:28,760 Speaker 2: they trace you get fired normally, here's your check, here's 1362 01:06:28,800 --> 01:06:31,080 Speaker 2: your two weeks, two months, two years, whatever it is. 1363 01:06:31,080 --> 01:06:32,320 Speaker 2: This is what you're in tel We'll give you this 1364 01:06:32,360 --> 01:06:35,280 Speaker 2: in exchange for this check. Here's this check. Uh, and 1365 01:06:35,320 --> 01:06:36,960 Speaker 2: now you just lost your job. You don't have the 1366 01:06:36,960 --> 01:06:39,280 Speaker 2: future holds. You're probably scared to death. That's they've got 1367 01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:41,520 Speaker 2: you in a vulnerable position, which is terrible from a 1368 01:06:41,520 --> 01:06:46,240 Speaker 2: negotiation standpoint. But isn't this like just like a contract negotiation, 1369 01:06:46,400 --> 01:06:49,080 Speaker 2: the NDA period where you know, if you sign this, 1370 01:06:49,120 --> 01:06:51,480 Speaker 2: we'll give you your your two week severance right now. 1371 01:06:52,120 --> 01:06:54,440 Speaker 2: Don't sign the check that you can negotiate all that, 1372 01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:54,800 Speaker 2: can't you? 1373 01:06:56,600 --> 01:07:00,400 Speaker 6: Sometimes, so an NDA is most often you so that 1374 01:07:00,480 --> 01:07:04,960 Speaker 6: you don't disclose company secrets. I'm going from one company 1375 01:07:05,040 --> 01:07:07,840 Speaker 6: to a competitor, And sometimes there will be like a 1376 01:07:07,920 --> 01:07:10,880 Speaker 6: non compete which says you can't work in this market 1377 01:07:10,920 --> 01:07:13,800 Speaker 6: for six months or you can't work with people who 1378 01:07:13,840 --> 01:07:17,640 Speaker 6: are direct competitors for twelve months. So that's general, there's 1379 01:07:17,640 --> 01:07:19,280 Speaker 6: a non compete, But then there's also a lot of 1380 01:07:19,280 --> 01:07:22,920 Speaker 6: times an NDA, which means you're not going to run 1381 01:07:22,960 --> 01:07:25,840 Speaker 6: over to even if you don't go work for a competitor, 1382 01:07:25,840 --> 01:07:27,959 Speaker 6: you're not going to call them up and say, hey, 1383 01:07:28,480 --> 01:07:30,200 Speaker 6: I got a bunch of company secrets here I'm going 1384 01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:33,400 Speaker 6: to share with you. So those are to me especially 1385 01:07:33,440 --> 01:07:37,760 Speaker 6: if NDA is very reasonable, now when and quus it? 1386 01:07:37,840 --> 01:07:37,920 Speaker 1: Now? 1387 01:07:37,960 --> 01:07:39,800 Speaker 6: Again, I'm not an attorney. This is just based on 1388 01:07:40,000 --> 01:07:42,120 Speaker 6: you know, go to what I've seen. When you say, 1389 01:07:43,720 --> 01:07:46,960 Speaker 6: when you say so, then they'll they'll look at if 1390 01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:51,320 Speaker 6: I said no non compete for two years? Does that 1391 01:07:51,880 --> 01:07:55,320 Speaker 6: interfere with your ability to make a living? And in 1392 01:07:55,320 --> 01:07:56,360 Speaker 6: a lot of cases it does. 1393 01:07:56,520 --> 01:07:57,520 Speaker 7: Two years is too long. 1394 01:07:58,000 --> 01:08:00,520 Speaker 6: So NDA they had in it a non dis paragement 1395 01:08:00,520 --> 01:08:04,360 Speaker 6: clause which says you will not speak ill of this company. 1396 01:08:04,400 --> 01:08:07,400 Speaker 6: And a lot of big companies, a lot of women 1397 01:08:07,480 --> 01:08:09,920 Speaker 6: back when all this me too stuff was going on 1398 01:08:10,080 --> 01:08:12,880 Speaker 6: was really coming out, they got big payouts and they 1399 01:08:12,920 --> 01:08:15,920 Speaker 6: find an NDA they would not dispair it. 1400 01:08:15,920 --> 01:08:18,160 Speaker 2: But it's a big payout. The question is how big 1401 01:08:18,160 --> 01:08:21,120 Speaker 2: a payout, meaning how much money are the taxpayer is 1402 01:08:21,120 --> 01:08:23,640 Speaker 2: going to have to foot the bill for this malfeasance 1403 01:08:23,680 --> 01:08:24,440 Speaker 2: and incompetence. 1404 01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:28,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, so I don't I think it could have been 1405 01:08:28,280 --> 01:08:31,519 Speaker 6: handled better. But I also say that because I also 1406 01:08:31,880 --> 01:08:34,679 Speaker 6: am always very careful because we don't know the whole 1407 01:08:34,720 --> 01:08:39,759 Speaker 6: story from from we don't know everything. We can only take. 1408 01:08:39,600 --> 01:08:40,080 Speaker 3: Which put out. 1409 01:08:40,120 --> 01:08:42,519 Speaker 6: But then again the other time, that is if you're 1410 01:08:43,000 --> 01:08:46,439 Speaker 6: out there, if you're a manager. You have to so 1411 01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:51,280 Speaker 6: carefully manage what you put out, what you say. Everybody 1412 01:08:51,320 --> 01:08:53,880 Speaker 6: has to be on the same page, and you have 1413 01:08:54,040 --> 01:08:56,519 Speaker 6: to anticipate all these things and be ready for you. 1414 01:08:57,400 --> 01:08:59,800 Speaker 6: If not, you just have a dumpster fire. 1415 01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:02,479 Speaker 2: I'll leave it at that. The problem is politics, and 1416 01:09:02,520 --> 01:09:04,679 Speaker 2: of course you know, people just continue to vote blue 1417 01:09:04,840 --> 01:09:07,160 Speaker 2: in Hamblin County and get what they get, and the 1418 01:09:07,160 --> 01:09:09,920 Speaker 2: same people complain about the people who voted red. And 1419 01:09:10,000 --> 01:09:12,599 Speaker 2: we had protests down at the riverfront this weekend over, 1420 01:09:12,760 --> 01:09:15,080 Speaker 2: but turn that mirror around. How much of the parallels, 1421 01:09:15,080 --> 01:09:17,120 Speaker 2: how much stuff you bitching about Trump is a to 1422 01:09:17,120 --> 01:09:20,320 Speaker 2: have pure vault doing. There's there's there's the ven diagram, 1423 01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:23,160 Speaker 2: there's some carryover.

But we 1442 01:10:10,479 --> 01:10:14,439 Speaker 2: also have other things going on, trouble brewing here on 1443 01:10:14,560 --> 01:10:16,240 Speaker 2: It's been kind of going on well for the last 1444 01:10:16,280 --> 01:10:18,200 Speaker 2: few days here, starting the last week. Clarmont kind of 1445 01:10:18,240 --> 01:10:22,000 Speaker 2: Republican Dave Young's office is investigating the image of an 1446 01:10:22,000 --> 01:10:24,879 Speaker 2: American flag with the stripes bent to form of swastika. 1447 01:10:24,880 --> 01:10:26,960 Speaker 2: I'm sure you saw the images by now that was 1448 01:10:27,000 --> 01:10:30,839 Speaker 2: caught an Cameron a zoom meeting in this congressional staffer's office. 1449 01:10:31,560 --> 01:10:34,519 Speaker 2: So next to the shutdown, this political scandal is kind 1450 01:10:34,560 --> 01:10:36,880 Speaker 2: of consuming Washington, not just what it's going on in 1451 01:10:36,960 --> 01:10:40,040 Speaker 2: Dave Young's office, but the what almost three thousand pages 1452 01:10:40,080 --> 01:10:42,240 Speaker 2: of eleak chats revealing that the leaders and the Young 1453 01:10:42,280 --> 01:10:46,560 Speaker 2: Republicans traded a bunch of pretty horrific words and statements 1454 01:10:46,680 --> 01:10:48,479 Speaker 2: which they thought would never make the eye of pub 1455 01:10:48,600 --> 01:10:51,479 Speaker 2: the light of public eye, seeing the light, so to speak. 1456 01:10:51,520 --> 01:10:55,320 Speaker 2: It was in chambers, and it was in a chat group, 1457 01:10:55,600 --> 01:10:57,759 Speaker 2: and yet we've seen stuff like this leak out before. 1458 01:10:58,520 --> 01:11:01,519 Speaker 2: The problem is, again, just if you're you know, don't 1459 01:11:01,600 --> 01:11:03,920 Speaker 2: like the GOP, you don't like Republicans, you don't like Trump, 1460 01:11:04,160 --> 01:11:06,080 Speaker 2: this just gives you more ammo to hate on them, 1461 01:11:06,400 --> 01:11:08,479 Speaker 2: and you wonder what the reaction is is this whole thing. 1462 01:11:08,520 --> 01:11:11,440 Speaker 2: You've got some of these GOP Young GOP chapters disbanding 1463 01:11:11,439 --> 01:11:14,040 Speaker 2: within hours because of this. And I know the Vice 1464 01:11:14,040 --> 01:11:16,719 Speaker 2: President Jade Vance brushed it off as kids being edgy, 1465 01:11:16,760 --> 01:11:20,000 Speaker 2: but there's some bipartisan outrage out there, and when you 1466 01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:22,479 Speaker 2: have bipartisanship in a divided government, that says a lot. 1467 01:11:22,479 --> 01:11:25,920 Speaker 2: Her name is Victoria Churchill. She's a political reporter for 1468 01:11:26,040 --> 01:11:28,679 Speaker 2: dailymail dot Com first broke the key details of this story. 1469 01:11:28,720 --> 01:11:31,240 Speaker 2: She's also writes your young voices.

Republicans 1473 01:11:40,200 --> 01:11:44,040 Speaker 2: across the country are confronting whether to denounce this or 1474 01:11:44,080 --> 01:11:46,559 Speaker 2: deflect it, and we're seeing it kind of break both 1475 01:11:46,560 --> 01:11:50,200 Speaker 2: ways right now, because some are going, well, this is 1476 01:11:50,200 --> 01:11:52,280 Speaker 2: the worst thing ever. Others are going, well, yeah, but 1477 01:11:52,320 --> 01:11:56,760 Speaker 2: the Democrats did this, And the problem for Republicans is 1478 01:11:56,800 --> 01:11:59,439 Speaker 2: it just gives more ammo to Democrats who say, well, 1479 01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:01,479 Speaker 2: this is what you wind up voting for. It's all 1480 01:12:01,479 --> 01:12:02,280 Speaker 2: white supremacy. 1481 01:12:04,479 --> 01:12:06,320 Speaker 8: Well, you know, I just want to start off by 1482 01:12:06,360 --> 01:12:09,559 Speaker 8: saying the political rhetoric needs to be toned down on 1483 01:12:09,640 --> 01:12:10,519 Speaker 8: both sides of the aisle. 1484 01:12:10,600 --> 01:12:11,880 Speaker 2: I think that's something. 1485 01:12:12,280 --> 01:12:15,760 Speaker 8: We're seeing, and you know, especially after the assassination and 1486 01:12:15,920 --> 01:12:17,280 Speaker 8: you know, of course, let's call it what it is, 1487 01:12:17,360 --> 01:12:18,640 Speaker 8: assassination of Charlie. 1488 01:12:18,400 --> 01:12:20,960 Speaker 2: Kirk the last month. Yeah, we need. 1489 01:12:20,840 --> 01:12:23,960 Speaker 8: To tone down the rhetoric. However, I do want to 1490 01:12:23,960 --> 01:12:26,600 Speaker 8: point out a key differences between the general factors of 1491 01:12:26,640 --> 01:12:31,160 Speaker 8: the picular office, so you know, the young Republicans and 1492 01:12:31,640 --> 01:12:33,960 Speaker 8: just to be clear for your audience. Young Republicans are 1493 01:12:33,960 --> 01:12:36,559 Speaker 8: between the ages of eighteen and forty, so you know, 1494 01:12:36,640 --> 01:12:39,320 Speaker 8: I know, Vice President of Fans tried to brush them 1495 01:12:39,360 --> 01:12:41,640 Speaker 8: off as college kids. These are not college kids, at 1496 01:12:41,720 --> 01:12:44,280 Speaker 8: least not most of them. Most of them have jobs. 1497 01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:47,040 Speaker 8: Some of them pull elected office, others serve as very 1498 01:12:47,040 --> 01:12:51,080 Speaker 8: secret positions or other elective members or you know, I 1499 01:12:51,080 --> 01:12:54,960 Speaker 8: guess it's before they were fired resigned. However, you want 1500 01:12:54,960 --> 01:12:57,080 Speaker 8: to frame that they are no longer than the position. 1501 01:12:57,960 --> 01:13:00,479 Speaker 8: And I think that's the very key part of this 1502 01:13:00,680 --> 01:13:03,439 Speaker 8: is because when we compare this as the Vice President did, 1503 01:13:03,479 --> 01:13:04,880 Speaker 8: which you know, I think is more or less a 1504 01:13:04,920 --> 01:13:08,320 Speaker 8: fair comparison. Comparing this to the j Jones tex scandal 1505 01:13:08,400 --> 01:13:10,960 Speaker 8: that we're dealing with in Virginia. I love in Virginia. 1506 01:13:11,040 --> 01:13:13,360 Speaker 8: I cover some Virginia politics. Of course. That was the 1507 01:13:13,600 --> 01:13:17,280 Speaker 8: Democrat candidate for attorney general. He had some text messages 1508 01:13:17,320 --> 01:13:20,280 Speaker 8: revealed that he, you know, wish death not only on 1509 01:13:20,320 --> 01:13:24,280 Speaker 8: his opponent Ben Todds, Speaker or then House Speaker Todd Gilbert, 1510 01:13:24,320 --> 01:13:26,680 Speaker 8: the Republican Speaker of the House in a couple of 1511 01:13:26,720 --> 01:13:29,439 Speaker 8: years ago in Virginia, but also on his children, which 1512 01:13:29,479 --> 01:13:31,960 Speaker 8: you know, to me, that's even more disgusting if you 1513 01:13:31,960 --> 01:13:35,759 Speaker 8: can even agree that kind of thing. But you know, again, 1514 01:13:36,120 --> 01:13:38,720 Speaker 8: j Jones is still running for office, and he's been 1515 01:13:39,240 --> 01:13:42,720 Speaker 8: backed up by senior Democrats. But I believe both of 1516 01:13:42,760 --> 01:13:48,360 Speaker 8: our US senators in Virginia, Kim Kaine, Mark Warner, they're 1517 01:13:48,400 --> 01:13:50,479 Speaker 8: really egging him on. They're saying, yeah, the text are bad, 1518 01:13:50,680 --> 01:13:52,880 Speaker 8: but they still want this man to hold elected office. 1519 01:13:53,280 --> 01:13:55,639 Speaker 8: On the Republican side, Republicans have come out and said, 1520 01:13:55,880 --> 01:13:59,960 Speaker 8: these people are not representative of our party, deserve a 1521 01:14:00,040 --> 01:14:02,840 Speaker 8: place in leadership, if the thing at all, because a 1522 01:14:02,880 --> 01:14:05,760 Speaker 8: lot of the times, the young Republican chasters, like I said, 1523 01:14:05,760 --> 01:14:07,720 Speaker 8: you know, a lot of them hold elected office or 1524 01:14:07,760 --> 01:14:10,080 Speaker 8: work for elected officials, but even more of them. You know, 1525 01:14:10,120 --> 01:14:12,479 Speaker 8: it's supposed to be kind of a talent pipeline for 1526 01:14:12,680 --> 01:14:16,599 Speaker 8: Republican leaders of Publican candidates all over the country. Really, 1527 01:14:17,280 --> 01:14:18,800 Speaker 8: and you know, I think that that's part of why 1528 01:14:18,800 --> 01:14:23,599 Speaker 8: the story is so big, is that you have dangerous 1529 01:14:23,600 --> 01:14:26,519 Speaker 8: ideologies on both sides. That of course, I'm all for 1530 01:14:26,520 --> 01:14:30,280 Speaker 8: free speech, right, but you know, I think in a 1531 01:14:30,320 --> 01:14:34,320 Speaker 8: free speech situation, this is actually better because people can speak, really, 1532 01:14:34,400 --> 01:14:37,599 Speaker 8: and then people can judge these individuals that say things 1533 01:14:37,680 --> 01:14:41,360 Speaker 8: that you know, I personally find morally reprehensible, abhorrent all 1534 01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:42,840 Speaker 8: those things. 1535 01:14:42,600 --> 01:14:45,559 Speaker 2: Right, I think, and I think, you know jd Vance 1536 01:14:45,640 --> 01:14:47,320 Speaker 2: is he's right about one thing he says, I refuse 1537 01:14:47,400 --> 01:14:49,760 Speaker 2: to join the pro clutching when powerful people call for 1538 01:14:49,800 --> 01:14:53,160 Speaker 2: political violence. You know, the what about ism as you 1539 01:14:53,240 --> 01:14:55,479 Speaker 2: mentioned in politics, that what about as it means once 1540 01:14:55,520 --> 01:14:58,599 Speaker 2: that always downplays what they're sick of fans do as 1541 01:14:58,600 --> 01:15:01,040 Speaker 2: they rail against their enemies. When they do it, you know, 1542 01:15:02,160 --> 01:15:05,440 Speaker 2: on the left, embracing anti Semitism for example, or Kirk's assassination, 1543 01:15:06,439 --> 01:15:08,240 Speaker 2: how is this any different? And so I think when 1544 01:15:08,240 --> 01:15:10,599 Speaker 2: that happens on both sides, as you mentioned, I think 1545 01:15:10,640 --> 01:15:12,679 Speaker 2: the rest of the electorate, most of us go, well, 1546 01:15:13,200 --> 01:15:15,200 Speaker 2: if you're not going to change it, we can't change 1547 01:15:15,200 --> 01:15:17,880 Speaker 2: it either. And it's just the latest insult I suppose 1548 01:15:17,960 --> 01:15:22,200 Speaker 2: to our sensibilities and tolerances, and we're I don't see 1549 01:15:22,240 --> 01:15:24,160 Speaker 2: it getting better. I just see this being more the same. 1550 01:15:26,040 --> 01:15:29,320 Speaker 8: Well, you know again, I think sunlight is the best disinfected. 1551 01:15:30,080 --> 01:15:32,759 Speaker 8: I think the only way to get what I consider 1552 01:15:32,840 --> 01:15:36,639 Speaker 8: to be bad ideas out is to talk about them, 1553 01:15:36,680 --> 01:15:41,639 Speaker 8: and is to have conversations, you know, publicized and again, 1554 01:15:41,840 --> 01:15:44,479 Speaker 8: views that I think should not really have grounding in 1555 01:15:44,520 --> 01:15:47,200 Speaker 8: our political rhetoric today. The only way to get them 1556 01:15:47,200 --> 01:15:50,640 Speaker 8: out is to have these conversations. Now kind of on 1557 01:15:50,680 --> 01:15:52,680 Speaker 8: the flip side. Actually, some of my reporting that I 1558 01:15:52,720 --> 01:15:56,800 Speaker 8: did on the text method scandal was that, at least 1559 01:15:56,840 --> 01:15:59,000 Speaker 8: by the evidence that I've seen and that my colleagues 1560 01:15:59,000 --> 01:16:04,479 Speaker 8: put into that story, these texts were actually coerced and so, 1561 01:16:04,600 --> 01:16:07,280 Speaker 8: you know, there may have been some very shady kind 1562 01:16:07,280 --> 01:16:10,520 Speaker 8: of back room feeling. You know, one of the individuals, 1563 01:16:10,920 --> 01:16:12,719 Speaker 8: he has come out with an illegal off of David 1564 01:16:13,280 --> 01:16:16,200 Speaker 8: which is available. You know that he was basically coerced 1565 01:16:16,200 --> 01:16:20,840 Speaker 8: into releasing these text messages. And you know, again I 1566 01:16:20,920 --> 01:16:22,840 Speaker 8: think that's the other side of it, which we should 1567 01:16:22,880 --> 01:16:25,840 Speaker 8: also talk about, is that doing it is one thing, 1568 01:16:26,640 --> 01:16:30,840 Speaker 8: which again I denounced wholeheartedly, but coercing somebody to get 1569 01:16:30,840 --> 01:16:36,200 Speaker 8: that information out is so in my view not Okay, Yeah, 1570 01:16:36,240 --> 01:16:36,839 Speaker 8: that's interesting. 1571 01:16:36,920 --> 01:16:38,720 Speaker 2: Is one may ask, well, how did all this I mean, 1572 01:16:38,720 --> 01:16:40,799 Speaker 2: it's been over for a few years. Here you're talking 1573 01:16:41,280 --> 01:16:43,840 Speaker 2: twenty eight thousand messages. Wow, months, I guess they show 1574 01:16:43,840 --> 01:16:48,320 Speaker 2: twenty thousand message over seven months. That's a lot of 1575 01:16:48,320 --> 01:16:50,920 Speaker 2: information get dumped and all of a sudden somebody turns 1576 01:16:50,920 --> 01:16:53,759 Speaker 2: and says, hey, we've got all this stuff. That feels 1577 01:16:53,800 --> 01:16:55,719 Speaker 2: like the reason why someone would say this is because 1578 01:16:56,040 --> 01:16:59,080 Speaker 2: either they are outed or discovered, or someone had some 1579 01:16:59,160 --> 01:17:02,400 Speaker 2: information since and knew this was going on and basically 1580 01:17:02,520 --> 01:17:04,439 Speaker 2: wanted to expose in blackmail them in a way. Is 1581 01:17:04,439 --> 01:17:05,559 Speaker 2: that kind of what you're talking about. 1582 01:17:06,720 --> 01:17:09,080 Speaker 8: Yeah, Again, that's the evidence that I've seen leads me 1583 01:17:09,160 --> 01:17:11,680 Speaker 8: to have that conclusion. Again, that legal Affidavid as well 1584 01:17:11,720 --> 01:17:14,240 Speaker 8: as you have some conversations I've had to have disease. Obviously, 1585 01:17:14,280 --> 01:17:17,960 Speaker 8: don't want to out anybody on there, you know, because 1586 01:17:18,000 --> 01:17:19,760 Speaker 8: I was able to kind of you know, conceal their 1587 01:17:19,800 --> 01:17:22,280 Speaker 8: identities for the purposes of the story and my reporting. 1588 01:17:23,520 --> 01:17:25,559 Speaker 8: But yeah, you know, it does really seem to me, 1589 01:17:25,800 --> 01:17:27,760 Speaker 8: like you know, of course the people that said it 1590 01:17:28,640 --> 01:17:32,720 Speaker 8: are are horrible in doing that. But again, I think 1591 01:17:32,880 --> 01:17:35,839 Speaker 8: the blackmail that led to the release of these text messages, 1592 01:17:35,960 --> 01:17:38,599 Speaker 8: and that you know, in our digging, we found out 1593 01:17:38,640 --> 01:17:43,559 Speaker 8: that actually these text messages got out in August and 1594 01:17:43,640 --> 01:17:47,360 Speaker 8: there was effort within the GOP to you know, stem, 1595 01:17:47,360 --> 01:17:50,200 Speaker 8: if not completely, kind of nullify the release of these 1596 01:17:51,160 --> 01:17:53,240 Speaker 8: because it seems to me, again at least based on 1597 01:17:53,280 --> 01:17:55,920 Speaker 8: my reporting that I've done that it was really a 1598 01:17:56,320 --> 01:18:00,919 Speaker 8: personally motivated attack from one individual to another. One individual 1599 01:18:01,080 --> 01:18:04,080 Speaker 8: described this, you know, kind of as a vendetta that 1600 01:18:04,160 --> 01:18:07,599 Speaker 8: the person who either directly or indirectly you lead these 1601 01:18:07,640 --> 01:18:12,439 Speaker 8: messages was responsible for. And you know, again that kind 1602 01:18:12,439 --> 01:18:16,080 Speaker 8: of raises the question of you know, who do you trust, 1603 01:18:16,160 --> 01:18:20,080 Speaker 8: who do you trust to go out and have conversations with, 1604 01:18:21,400 --> 01:18:24,080 Speaker 8: because you never know when not a person might stab 1605 01:18:24,200 --> 01:18:25,599 Speaker 8: you in the back and release things. 1606 01:18:25,640 --> 01:18:25,840 Speaker 3: You know. 1607 01:18:26,000 --> 01:18:28,120 Speaker 8: Again, of course I personally think that they should have 1608 01:18:28,120 --> 01:18:32,280 Speaker 8: never been said in the first place. But well, now 1609 01:18:32,439 --> 01:18:33,439 Speaker 8: is also pretty discossed. 1610 01:18:33,439 --> 01:18:35,479 Speaker 2: I think, Victoria Church, I think both things can be true. 1611 01:18:35,520 --> 01:18:37,639 Speaker 2: That this could be blackmail, that could be I don't know, 1612 01:18:37,680 --> 01:18:39,760 Speaker 2: maybe a relationship gone wrong and said hey, I got 1613 01:18:39,760 --> 01:18:41,599 Speaker 2: the goods on you and trying to hold someone hostage. 1614 01:18:41,600 --> 01:18:44,840 Speaker 2: That's that's criminal as well. But also that can be 1615 01:18:44,840 --> 01:18:47,160 Speaker 2: true the fact that the twenty thousand messages had a 1616 01:18:47,160 --> 01:18:49,719 Speaker 2: lot of vile things on there when you start talking 1617 01:18:49,720 --> 01:18:53,519 Speaker 2: about you know, calling Generation Z Generation icon and one 1618 01:18:53,560 --> 01:18:55,560 Speaker 2: staff or from a i think New York State and 1619 01:18:55,600 --> 01:18:58,439 Speaker 2: Assembly members chief of staff got fired for saying I 1620 01:18:58,439 --> 01:19:01,320 Speaker 2: love Hitler and then everyone votes know on this particular 1621 01:19:01,320 --> 01:19:03,040 Speaker 2: bill is going to the gas chamber, and there are 1622 01:19:03,080 --> 01:19:05,680 Speaker 2: far worse things in there that I can't repeat. And 1623 01:19:06,240 --> 01:19:08,000 Speaker 2: there's some threads you look at you go, wow, that's 1624 01:19:08,120 --> 01:19:11,120 Speaker 2: that's pretty harsh. But out of those twenty eight thousand, 1625 01:19:12,479 --> 01:19:14,679 Speaker 2: I'll back up a second, because I think that Assembly member, 1626 01:19:14,960 --> 01:19:17,519 Speaker 2: that chief of staff and others are going, well, I'm 1627 01:19:17,520 --> 01:19:19,160 Speaker 2: not even sure I said that. I think it might 1628 01:19:19,160 --> 01:19:21,759 Speaker 2: have been doctored or altered that some of the claims 1629 01:19:21,800 --> 01:19:25,919 Speaker 2: going on. Is that revisionism or is there some possible 1630 01:19:25,960 --> 01:19:28,320 Speaker 2: basis in reality in that it sounds like we're going, No, 1631 01:19:28,479 --> 01:19:30,439 Speaker 2: that didn't really It sounds like my pillow guy kind 1632 01:19:30,439 --> 01:19:31,200 Speaker 2: of talk, you know what I mean. 1633 01:19:32,640 --> 01:19:34,880 Speaker 8: So I think the fact that he has taken responsibility 1634 01:19:34,920 --> 01:19:37,240 Speaker 8: for that is good. I also know that the way 1635 01:19:37,320 --> 01:19:40,719 Speaker 8: that those messages came out in that original political story 1636 01:19:41,360 --> 01:19:44,320 Speaker 8: is that, you know, I guess when you download a 1637 01:19:44,479 --> 01:19:47,960 Speaker 8: history of messages from telegram, they do not come out, 1638 01:19:48,040 --> 01:19:49,519 Speaker 8: you know, and kind of the way that they were 1639 01:19:49,560 --> 01:19:51,799 Speaker 8: portrayed in the story, or when you look at text messages, 1640 01:19:51,840 --> 01:19:54,760 Speaker 8: you know, between people, and so the actual images that 1641 01:19:54,800 --> 01:19:57,720 Speaker 8: we're in that political article are recreations and you know, 1642 01:19:58,000 --> 01:20:00,880 Speaker 8: I think they've been pretty forward about that. And you know, 1643 01:20:00,880 --> 01:20:04,040 Speaker 8: even an information that's come back since then, allegedly a 1644 01:20:04,080 --> 01:20:07,840 Speaker 8: text message leaks between the reporter that was working on 1645 01:20:07,880 --> 01:20:10,439 Speaker 8: this story and the individual you know again who I 1646 01:20:10,439 --> 01:20:13,439 Speaker 8: believe is responsible for getting this information out. You know, 1647 01:20:13,479 --> 01:20:18,200 Speaker 8: like I said, whether directly or indirectly, those actual images 1648 01:20:18,240 --> 01:20:21,800 Speaker 8: are recreations, and so I don't know it's out of 1649 01:20:21,840 --> 01:20:24,920 Speaker 8: twenty thousand messages if they are direct. 1650 01:20:24,760 --> 01:20:26,360 Speaker 3: Recreations, gotcha. 1651 01:20:27,560 --> 01:20:29,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I guess that's probably parsing a little bit, going, well, 1652 01:20:29,800 --> 01:20:31,960 Speaker 2: these aren't the actual well, of course not, because the 1653 01:20:32,000 --> 01:20:34,440 Speaker 2: graphics have to look better, and it's also being condensed 1654 01:20:34,479 --> 01:20:36,599 Speaker 2: for the reader. I mean, you read through twenty eight 1655 01:20:36,600 --> 01:20:38,960 Speaker 2: thousand messages. I'm not sure of all of them rose 1656 01:20:38,960 --> 01:20:40,759 Speaker 2: to the level of what we're talking about here. Probably 1657 01:20:40,800 --> 01:20:42,120 Speaker 2: most of it was pretty boring stuff. 1658 01:20:43,200 --> 01:20:46,599 Speaker 8: Yeah, absolutely, And again you know, recreating text messages, it's 1659 01:20:46,680 --> 01:20:49,760 Speaker 8: the context of sital journalism is not in itself nefarious, 1660 01:20:49,880 --> 01:20:52,679 Speaker 8: like we've you know, actually on this geos Tex scandal, 1661 01:20:53,040 --> 01:20:55,400 Speaker 8: we did a follow up story that was told to 1662 01:20:55,439 --> 01:20:58,479 Speaker 8: me by a grassroots group at activin Virginia. They had 1663 01:20:58,479 --> 01:21:01,639 Speaker 8: been out get out the vote. Text message is about 1664 01:21:01,640 --> 01:21:04,320 Speaker 8: the Jjo's tex scandal to what they identified as a 1665 01:21:04,439 --> 01:21:07,439 Speaker 8: universe of soft Democrat voters, and they got death threats 1666 01:21:07,600 --> 01:21:11,320 Speaker 8: to the Republicans back to those Jajones text messages, and 1667 01:21:11,360 --> 01:21:13,760 Speaker 8: we did a story recreitting those responses that they got, 1668 01:21:13,800 --> 01:21:17,639 Speaker 8: so again kind of in itself out as the area 1669 01:21:17,840 --> 01:21:20,880 Speaker 8: and you know, yeah, yeah, we've recreated text messages. They've 1670 01:21:20,880 --> 01:21:23,559 Speaker 8: recreated text messages. It's just that nasty text messages. 1671 01:21:23,960 --> 01:21:24,320 Speaker 2: It's all. 1672 01:21:24,560 --> 01:21:26,400 Speaker 8: It's all, you know, there's definitely a lot of thinking 1673 01:21:26,439 --> 01:21:27,040 Speaker 8: to be done a bit. 1674 01:21:27,080 --> 01:21:29,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, you're highlighting the juicy parts of the novel, 1675 01:21:29,520 --> 01:21:31,160 Speaker 2: is what you're doing here. You're not you're trying to 1676 01:21:31,200 --> 01:21:33,000 Speaker 2: manipulate it or anything like that. You're just trying to 1677 01:21:33,520 --> 01:21:35,920 Speaker 2: cut to the chase, give me the story. Not all 1678 01:21:35,960 --> 01:21:38,200 Speaker 2: twenty eight thousand were bad, but certainly enough of them 1679 01:21:38,200 --> 01:21:40,559 Speaker 2: none to make this into a story. Do you think 1680 01:21:40,560 --> 01:21:44,320 Speaker 2: that the shutdown helps or hurts that the focus the 1681 01:21:44,400 --> 01:21:47,439 Speaker 2: narrative this? I mean, because the shutdown is such a story, 1682 01:21:47,520 --> 01:21:49,960 Speaker 2: does this overshadow what you're reporting here? Or is it 1683 01:21:49,960 --> 01:21:52,599 Speaker 2: the other way around? Because nothing's happening DC that people 1684 01:21:52,600 --> 01:21:53,560 Speaker 2: are paying attention. 1685 01:21:53,280 --> 01:21:57,000 Speaker 8: To this well, I will say from my personal bandwidth 1686 01:21:57,000 --> 01:21:59,559 Speaker 8: as a reporter that is typically on Capitol Hill, I've 1687 01:21:59,560 --> 01:22:01,760 Speaker 8: been report on this because I'm not covering day to 1688 01:22:01,800 --> 01:22:04,240 Speaker 8: day goings on on Capitol Hill. So you know, for 1689 01:22:04,560 --> 01:22:06,600 Speaker 8: me personally, I've been able to shift my attention to 1690 01:22:06,680 --> 01:22:09,519 Speaker 8: covering this. I think it is, you know, equally as 1691 01:22:09,560 --> 01:22:12,760 Speaker 8: important because you know, one is the now of our politics. 1692 01:22:12,760 --> 01:22:14,559 Speaker 8: One is the future of our politics or the US 1693 01:22:14,600 --> 01:22:16,600 Speaker 8: in Virginia. You know, ballants that are being cast for 1694 01:22:16,680 --> 01:22:20,120 Speaker 8: these candidates right now, and again see of these individuals 1695 01:22:20,120 --> 01:22:22,760 Speaker 8: that were involved in the Younger lookin Tech scandal, they 1696 01:22:22,840 --> 01:22:27,879 Speaker 8: also are people that serve in positions that are politically important, 1697 01:22:28,200 --> 01:22:30,600 Speaker 8: whether that's in their home states in New York or 1698 01:22:30,640 --> 01:22:33,519 Speaker 8: their places around the country. So, you know, in terms 1699 01:22:33,560 --> 01:22:37,639 Speaker 8: of national media attention, I'm not sure if they would 1700 01:22:37,680 --> 01:22:40,000 Speaker 8: have gotten that much, but in terms of importance, and 1701 01:22:40,400 --> 01:22:42,320 Speaker 8: you know, kind of my background before I became reporter, 1702 01:22:42,400 --> 01:22:45,200 Speaker 8: I actually worked in grass roots and so I've personally 1703 01:22:45,240 --> 01:22:47,640 Speaker 8: always been of the mindset that what happens in grassroots 1704 01:22:47,680 --> 01:22:49,800 Speaker 8: is very important for the future of our nation, for 1705 01:22:49,840 --> 01:22:51,840 Speaker 8: the future of our country, and for the future of 1706 01:22:51,840 --> 01:22:55,040 Speaker 8: both political parties, and so in my reporting, I actually 1707 01:22:55,040 --> 01:22:57,600 Speaker 8: have a tendency to share those grassroots stories and not 1708 01:22:57,680 --> 01:23:01,120 Speaker 8: many other reporters, particularly in DC, and you even actually 1709 01:23:01,200 --> 01:23:03,880 Speaker 8: think is worth paying attention to. Sure And you know, again, 1710 01:23:03,960 --> 01:23:06,280 Speaker 8: just just another quick note on that. Actually this political 1711 01:23:06,479 --> 01:23:09,679 Speaker 8: story was done by two reporters out of New York. 1712 01:23:10,120 --> 01:23:13,599 Speaker 8: So that's another insting fidbit that I kind of found, 1713 01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:15,800 Speaker 8: is that, you know, it also concerns a lot of 1714 01:23:15,800 --> 01:23:19,800 Speaker 8: things in DC nationally. But the reporter that kind of 1715 01:23:19,800 --> 01:23:22,280 Speaker 8: interacted with this individual, who you know again I believe 1716 01:23:22,360 --> 01:23:27,639 Speaker 8: is the alleged leaker, They are a New York political reporter. 1717 01:23:27,760 --> 01:23:30,000 Speaker 8: And then the secondary reporter that was on that story 1718 01:23:30,360 --> 01:23:32,519 Speaker 8: is the head of all of politicals covering port in 1719 01:23:32,560 --> 01:23:35,320 Speaker 8: Euroa gotch out. You know again, I think those reporters 1720 01:23:35,360 --> 01:23:38,639 Speaker 8: may have, you know, because they're not necessarily DP reporters, 1721 01:23:38,680 --> 01:23:41,720 Speaker 8: that story would have probably still come out, is at 1722 01:23:41,760 --> 01:23:42,360 Speaker 8: least my view. 1723 01:23:42,680 --> 01:23:46,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. Victoria Churchill political report for Daily Mail. They broke 1724 01:23:46,200 --> 01:23:48,120 Speaker 2: key details of the story. She also is a Young 1725 01:23:48,200 --> 01:23:50,880 Speaker 2: Voice contributor. During the show this morning about the text 1726 01:23:50,920 --> 01:23:54,679 Speaker 2: message scandal, Chris's conspective Claremont County Republican Dave Young's office 1727 01:23:54,680 --> 01:23:58,280 Speaker 2: where there's a swastika, an American flag with a stripture 1728 01:23:58,320 --> 01:24:00,280 Speaker 2: bet to form of swastka behind this end. The vigil 1729 01:24:00,320 --> 01:24:02,880 Speaker 2: caught on camera and that's in a staffer's office and 1730 01:24:02,920 --> 01:24:05,360 Speaker 2: he said, well, we're gonna investigate this and find out 1731 01:24:05,360 --> 01:24:07,760 Speaker 2: what's really going on, which tells me this is more. 1732 01:24:07,880 --> 01:24:10,200 Speaker 2: Let let's see which way the wind blows politically speaking, 1733 01:24:10,240 --> 01:24:13,240 Speaker 2: because that's how politics works. Victoria, looking forward, do you 1734 01:24:13,240 --> 01:24:15,320 Speaker 2: think the scandal is going to lead to change? And 1735 01:24:15,400 --> 01:24:18,000 Speaker 2: how maybe not the GOEP, but the Dems too, because 1736 01:24:18,280 --> 01:24:20,679 Speaker 2: it's not like there their poop doesn't stink in this either, 1737 01:24:20,800 --> 01:24:23,479 Speaker 2: not with this case, but on others is this Are 1738 01:24:23,520 --> 01:24:25,360 Speaker 2: we just going to get more of the same. I 1739 01:24:25,400 --> 01:24:27,920 Speaker 2: don't really feel like people are outraged over this. 1740 01:24:30,160 --> 01:24:32,200 Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, that's a good question. I started off 1741 01:24:32,240 --> 01:24:34,640 Speaker 8: the segment talking about how the rhetoric needs to be 1742 01:24:34,680 --> 01:24:37,760 Speaker 8: turned down on both sides. Well people actually do that, 1743 01:24:37,880 --> 01:24:39,840 Speaker 8: you know. I think that's a big question that remains 1744 01:24:39,880 --> 01:24:42,559 Speaker 8: to be seen. And you know, for me as a reporter, 1745 01:24:42,600 --> 01:24:44,800 Speaker 8: I'm very interested in reporting on the feature of this 1746 01:24:45,479 --> 01:24:48,400 Speaker 8: because again, a lot of these this runtors that I've seen, 1747 01:24:48,400 --> 01:24:50,640 Speaker 8: you know, again, even particulately about Jay Jones and not 1748 01:24:51,040 --> 01:24:54,280 Speaker 8: condemning him. I think as outwardly as some Democrats could 1749 01:24:54,360 --> 01:24:57,439 Speaker 8: have been should have been my personal view. I think 1750 01:24:57,600 --> 01:24:59,479 Speaker 8: to me that means that they learn nothing from the 1751 01:24:59,600 --> 01:25:03,880 Speaker 8: Charlie right, yeah, or the you. 1752 01:25:03,800 --> 01:25:07,160 Speaker 2: Know, anti Semitism with what's happening in the Middle East, 1753 01:25:07,160 --> 01:25:09,639 Speaker 2: and it's just you know that this is the latest scandal. 1754 01:25:09,880 --> 01:25:12,200 Speaker 2: Tomorrow maybe another Republican or or it might be a 1755 01:25:12,240 --> 01:25:14,840 Speaker 2: Democrat that's caught up in something, and you know, saying 1756 01:25:14,880 --> 01:25:18,400 Speaker 2: this is part of the edge lord culture. I understand that, 1757 01:25:18,920 --> 01:25:21,360 Speaker 2: and I wonder if these people really believe that are 1758 01:25:21,400 --> 01:25:22,840 Speaker 2: just doing it to be edgy and a chat group. 1759 01:25:22,840 --> 01:25:24,960 Speaker 2: But again, you've got to be smarter than putting your 1760 01:25:24,960 --> 01:25:27,840 Speaker 2: words down and telegram or whatever the the app of 1761 01:25:27,880 --> 01:25:30,840 Speaker 2: the platform is, because if somebody sees that a later date, 1762 01:25:30,920 --> 01:25:33,559 Speaker 2: well you're going to have what's going on right here, Victoria, 1763 01:25:33,600 --> 01:25:35,479 Speaker 2: all the best. Thanks for joining the show. I appreciate it. 1764 01:25:35,520 --> 01:25:38,600 Speaker 2: Thank you, hop Yeah, the conversations you had were in 1765 01:25:38,640 --> 01:25:41,320 Speaker 2: defense when I understand that there's well it's online. You know, 1766 01:25:41,320 --> 01:25:43,599 Speaker 2: people are hiding by the keyboard. They never expected these 1767 01:25:43,640 --> 01:25:46,400 Speaker 2: things to But I'm sorry if you're calling yourself a 1768 01:25:46,439 --> 01:25:51,640 Speaker 2: future leader of America party being that stupid that and 1769 01:25:51,680 --> 01:25:53,920 Speaker 2: putting those words down. Even if you are j k 1770 01:25:55,680 --> 01:25:57,680 Speaker 2: they're going to turn that around and running out of 1771 01:25:57,680 --> 01:25:59,840 Speaker 2: town as well. They should. It's more of the stupidity 1772 01:25:59,920 --> 01:26:02,800 Speaker 2: is what it is, than anything, and also just the 1773 01:26:02,800 --> 01:26:06,360 Speaker 2: the nature of the conversations themselves are not only cringey, 1774 01:26:06,439 --> 01:26:09,280 Speaker 2: but extremely extremely wrong. For that matter, for anyone who 1775 01:26:09,520 --> 01:26:11,800 Speaker 2: professes their love of country, I want to lead this nation, 1776 01:26:11,920 --> 01:26:14,360 Speaker 2: even if they were just kidding.
