1
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:10,559
Speaker 1: All right, here we go back on the Big One,

2
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:14,319
Speaker 1: seven hundred WLW. It's nine oh seven. This is the

3
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:18,440
Speaker 1: Thursday night edition of the Midweek Crisis five one, three, seven, four, nine,

4
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:21,119
Speaker 1: eight hundred the Big One. Joe Waddell is running the

5
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 1: big board in the seven hundred WLW command center, and

6
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:30,320
Speaker 1: Joe Waddell informs me, I've got the Philadelphia Phillies at

7
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:34,600
Speaker 1: the Lakers game on Uh. Los Angeles seeds the series

8
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 1: two to one. They're in the tenth inning that would

9
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:41,959
Speaker 1: be commonly known as extra innings. And uh, Joe, how

10
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:44,160
Speaker 1: long ago was it they started this ghost runner stuff?

11
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:47,199
Speaker 1: It's not like twenty twenty. I want to think this

12
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 1: had to do with the wuhan or something like that,

13
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 1: twenty twenty Full Time implemented twenty twenty two. I do

14
00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 1: not like the idea at all of a ghost runner.

15
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's like Little league baseball. You know,

16
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 1: if if Major League Baseball, and I was I was

17
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 1: not planning on starting with this tonight at all. If

18
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball keeps going the way it's going, they're

19
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 1: gonna have a nine batter rule like Little league baseball.

20
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 1: They're gonna have a mercy rule it's gonna I mean,

21
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 1: they've got the pitch clock already, they've got the designated

22
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 1: hitter in the National League, and and and all stuff

23
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,120
Speaker 1: that I've sort of come to come to come to

24
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 1: terms with. But this notion of the ghost runner needs

25
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 1: to go away. If it's good, it's good enough for

26
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 1: the regular season, but it's not good enough for the playoffs.

27
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 1: Why is that? Why is that? Why do you change?

28
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 1: Why are there different rules for the playoffs than there

29
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 1: are for the regular season. To me, it just screams

30
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: how illegitimate this idea is. They need to get rid

31
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 1: of it. Period. Look if I'm watching a baseball game

32
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:14,800
Speaker 1: and that baseball game goes to extra innings and it

33
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 1: takes ten or eleven or fifteen or sixteen or eighteen

34
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: or nineteen innings, and so be it. I know it

35
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:31,519
Speaker 1: strains the pitching staff and all the rest of it.

36
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:38,639
Speaker 1: But not good enough for the playoffs, but good enough

37
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:42,679
Speaker 1: for the regular season. Terrible, terrible thing, all right. The

38
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: teacher James is hate in life. She's been indicted on

39
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 1: bank fraud charges. Grand jury approve those charges earlier today.

40
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 1: The indictment followed Federal Housing and Finance Agency director Bill

41
00:02:56,360 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 1: POLTI making a criminal referral to the Justice Department. Miss

42
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:07,799
Speaker 1: James has in multiple instances falsified bank documents allegedly and

43
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 1: property records to acquire government backed assistants and loans and

44
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 1: more favorable terms. Where have we heard that before? Where

45
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 1: have we heard that before? When she was prosecuting Donald

46
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 1: Trump on the exact same thing she was she was

47
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 1: wont to say no one is above the law, and

48
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 1: now it's coming back for her. But you know, look, right, hey,

49
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 1: Trump had a trial, We're going to have a trial

50
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 1: on this. Let the ships fall where they met. What

51
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: else is going on? Big debate tonight. You've got aftab

52
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: Purvall up against Corey Bowman. That's for the Cincinnati mayor.

53
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 1: I send a message to Corey Bowman, wish him well

54
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 1: in the debate, and if he is so inclined, he

55
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,600
Speaker 1: may call in. I don't know what time that debate

56
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,119
Speaker 1: gets over, but I've got guessed in the ten o'clock hour,

57
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 1: so I believe that debate is taking place as we speak,

58
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: So maybe in the eleven o'clock hour, if he's so inclined,

59
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 1: he'll call in and give us an update on how

60
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,840
Speaker 1: the debate goes tonight. Also, there's a debate going on

61
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:32,480
Speaker 1: in Virginia and that is pitting winsome Seers against this

62
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:37,280
Speaker 1: Abigail Spamberger, who is just a total dits, total left

63
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 1: wing lunatic who should not be elected in Virginia. All right,

64
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 1: I'm going I want to do something right. We're going

65
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,840
Speaker 1: to talk about Trump. I talked to my Middle East

66
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 1: experts earlier today and they are optimistic about the peace

67
00:04:55,240 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 1: plan that is going on between between Hamas and Israel.

68
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 2: Uh.

69
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 1: We cannot forget that that a rock main remains uh

70
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 1: not a rock, but Iran may remains a major player there.

71
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: So it's it's it's it's waiting to see there are

72
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,599
Speaker 1: there's a large Palestinian population that lives inside of Jordan,

73
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 1: so they have a vested interest on on what happens here.

74
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 1: So we'll see. Uh there. There's still a lot of

75
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 1: countries and a lot of leaders over there that's that

76
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 1: simply hate Israel, and the whole idea that they're all

77
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:53,039
Speaker 1: going to go along with this is that it's just hard.

78
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:55,919
Speaker 1: There's a lot there, there's a lot of wheels turning

79
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 1: behind the scenes that I don't know that none of

80
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 1: us know, and it's going to be absolutely fascinating, I

81
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 1: think when the details come to light on this, about

82
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: how all this came to pass. So this is just

83
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 1: another example of but it cannot be stressed enough to

84
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 1: my way of thinking, just how unbelievable the leadership of

85
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: Trump has been in this area. This guy wants piece

86
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,280
Speaker 1: more than anything else, and he is willing to do

87
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 1: anything it takes to get peace. And so I was

88
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 1: thinking about that last night when I, you know, when

89
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 1: this deal broke, and then I came across a piece

90
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 1: today written by Julian Sinclair. I do not know who

91
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 1: Julian Sinclair is. This is obviously a person who knows

92
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 1: a lot more about international affairs than most of us.

93
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,280
Speaker 1: And the title of this piece is the Trump Piece

94
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 1: Bonanza you Haven't heard of? So I saw that headline

95
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,040
Speaker 1: and I thought, well, what is the Trump piece Bonanza

96
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,719
Speaker 1: that I have not heard of? And so I'm going

97
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 1: to read this piece. And while I'm doing this, I

98
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 1: want you to, if if you're able to, because I've

99
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 1: done it, because I have so little familiarity with these areas.

100
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 1: I want you to pull up a map of Azerbijan

101
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:22,239
Speaker 1: and Armenia, and I want you to find the city

102
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 1: of Bac who it's back, who's easy to find? It

103
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 1: sticks out there in the Caspian Sea. And then you go, oh, gosh,

104
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 1: I don't know, six or seven hundred miles west to

105
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: a city called Cars k A R S. And you know,

106
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 1: and and and this this kind of gives you perspective

107
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: on what this piece is talking about. But stick with

108
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: me on this. I think I found this fascinating as

109
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 1: I was reading this earlier today, and I certainly hope

110
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 1: you will too. Uh And Julian Sinclair writes. Azerbaijan Armedia,

111
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:05,239
Speaker 1: Cavan and Senek are not named. Most Americans are familiar with, however,

112
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:10,119
Speaker 1: The Trip t ri IPP, which stands for the Trump

113
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 1: Route for International Peace and Prosperity. The Trip corridor runs

114
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 1: through these countries, cities and regions, is a decisive strategic

115
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 1: move in the Caucasus in Central Asia against three US

116
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: adversaries at once China, Russia and Iran. The Trip will

117
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 1: link the city of Cars in Turkey to the port

118
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 1: city of Baku in Azerbaijan. Baku is the most important

119
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 1: port city in the Caspian Sea, an inland sea connecting

120
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 1: Azerbaijan directly to Turkmenistan and Kazakistan. Together, these countries have

121
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:57,200
Speaker 1: proven oil reserves of thirty seven billion barrels thirty seven

122
00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 1: billion barrels, slightly more than the entire higher US proven

123
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:06,840
Speaker 1: reserve at thirty five billion. When Hitler invaded the Soviet

124
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 1: Union in June of nineteen forty one, his rhetorical justification

125
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 1: was secondary to his need to secure the Caucasan oil

126
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 1: fields of Azerbaijan and Central Asia. At the time, Germany's

127
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 1: only significant access to oil was from Romania, which was

128
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 1: insufficient for the needs of Germany and its occupied countries.

129
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 1: The famed Battle of Stalingrad was fought to secure the

130
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 1: Volga River for its access to the Caspian oil and

131
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: as a launch point for an invasion to capture the

132
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 1: port of Baku and its oil trade. It could be

133
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:42,080
Speaker 1: said that Hitler's push in the Eastern Front into the

134
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 1: Eastern Front, whose ultimate failure lost in the war, was

135
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:49,960
Speaker 1: driven in large part by the need to secure the

136
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:56,079
Speaker 1: region's oil. Despite the rhetoric condemning the twenty twenty two

137
00:09:56,120 --> 00:10:01,080
Speaker 1: Russian invasions of Ukraine, the EU purchased twenty one point

138
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 1: nine billion euros worth of fossil fuels from Russia in

139
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four alone, far less than pre twenty twenty

140
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 1: two levels, compared to spending eighteen point seven billion euros,

141
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: are sending eighteen point seven billion euros in financial aid

142
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 1: to Ukraine. Europe's need for fossil fuels has trumpets desire

143
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 1: to oppose Putin's Russia enter the Trump Route for international

144
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 1: peace and prosperity the trip. This is a rail line

145
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 1: that has the potential to unlock fifty to one hundred

146
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 1: billion dollars in annual trade by twenty twenty seven, a

147
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: significant portion of which will be in fossil fuels. The

148
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 1: rail from Baku to Kars, Turkey will allow the oil

149
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:51,320
Speaker 1: and natural gas exports of Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan and Kazakistan to

150
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:55,680
Speaker 1: enter the Mediterranean and then to Europe without passing through

151
00:10:55,760 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 1: Russia or Iran as before. So this rail that Trump

152
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: has created will allow this oil to flow directly to

153
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 1: the Caspian Sea, without passing through Russia, without passing through Iran.

154
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 1: That's why I wanted you to look at them. Fifteen

155
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 1: percent or I'm saying fifteen to twenty percent of Russia's

156
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 1: GDP is from fossil fuels and thirty to fifty percent

157
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 1: of its budget comes from fossil fuels. By opening the

158
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 1: Caucasus and Caspian oil to the world without the need

159
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:38,720
Speaker 1: to transit Russia or Iran, President Trumps seriously undermined a

160
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: geopolitical opponent without firing a shot or starting another regime

161
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 1: change war. In fact, the trip is part of a

162
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 1: peace negotiate, a peace deal negotiated between Azerbaijan and Armenia,

163
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 1: with the US leasing a twenty seven mile stretch of

164
00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 1: the railway in Armenia's Site Senior Providence, effectively underwriting Armenian

165
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 1: security without deploying US troops. Not only does the trip

166
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 1: give the US the influence in a region of the

167
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 1: southern flank of Russia and the northern flank of Iran,

168
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 1: but it also undermines China's Belt and Roade initiative. China

169
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 1: has long dreamed of creating a Middle Quarter, a four

170
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 1: thousand mile trade path from China to Europe. Trump's link

171
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: from Central Asia to the Mediterranean undermines China's most important

172
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 1: soft power program, creating a transit route that aligns with

173
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 1: US interests The trip involves no deployment of US forces

174
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 1: and will be solely managed by private, non military organizations

175
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 1: without a single soldier or jet fighter. President Trump has

176
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:56,320
Speaker 1: delivered a decisive strategic advantage against three US adversaries at

177
00:12:56,360 --> 00:13:00,200
Speaker 1: the same time. Although its purpose is non military, the

178
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 1: railway also has the potential to be used for military

179
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 1: purposes should Russia, China, or Iran decide to go to

180
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 1: war with the United States. The Caucasus in Central Asia

181
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,280
Speaker 1: have mostly been out of US reach without the use

182
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,679
Speaker 1: of expensive airpower and supporting ground troops there in. The

183
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: numbers required would make a difference in potential global conflict,

184
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 1: and it would be prohibitively expensive. With a capacity of

185
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:33,319
Speaker 1: fifty million tons of cargo per year, the trip could

186
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:37,200
Speaker 1: hypothetically support the transit of over one hundred thirty thousand

187
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:43,320
Speaker 1: tons of supplies per day. A US infantry division in

188
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five requires approximately one thousand, one hundred tons

189
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 1: of supplies per day, meaning multiple divisions and their supporting

190
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: air power could be deployed to the region. These units

191
00:13:56,559 --> 00:14:01,560
Speaker 1: could cause severe issues for Russia, Iran, and China should

192
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 1: the unfortunate need arise. The mirrorability to deploy significant US

193
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 1: forces to Central Asia and the Caucuses acts as a

194
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:16,359
Speaker 1: deterrent against Iran, Russia, and China, thus decreasing the likelihood

195
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 1: of war. In a conflict with China centered on Taiwan

196
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 1: and Southeast Asia Waters, China could be forced to deploy

197
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 1: significant numbers of troops and supplies to Xixiang Province, where

198
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 1: China is currently committing a genocide against native wigers on

199
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 1: Kazakistan's eastern border, diverting them from China's Pacific coast, which

200
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:46,480
Speaker 1: would be the decisive theater of said conflict. President Trump

201
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 1: has delivered a major economic blow to our geopolitical adversaries

202
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 1: without fighting a single costly war. By negotiating peace between

203
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: our media and Azerbaijan. He has created a competing trand

204
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 1: route for Caspian oil and significantly, we can China's belt

205
00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 1: and wrote initiative. That's the piece by Julian Sinclair. So

206
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 1: you hear all the time about how Trump is about

207
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 1: peace and economic development. The phrase Ronald Reagan used was

208
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 1: called peace through strength. This is what it looks like.

209
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 1: This is peace through strength. There is no way on

210
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 1: God's green earth. And it was all over the news

211
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 1: today there is no way that Joe Biden was ever

212
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 1: going to get a Middle East peace deal done like

213
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 1: the one that we are witnessing right now, and god

214
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 1: forbid that it falls apart and being look, those possibilities

215
00:15:53,280 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 1: are very real. But along the way, Trump has solved

216
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,160
Speaker 1: a handful of wars. I believe the number is eight.

217
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:07,960
Speaker 1: This is one of them, Armenia and Azerbaijan. Not only

218
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 1: did he bring an end to that conflict, he at

219
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 1: the same time, by creating this Trump route for an

220
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 1: international peace and prosperity, has also in a major way,

221
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 1: undermined the abilities of Iran, Russia, and China to fight

222
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 1: against the United States. This is what Trump is doing

223
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 1: when he's up at one am, at two am, at

224
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 1: three am. This is the kind of stuff that he

225
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 1: is thinking about. Is this is this is what serious

226
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 1: leadership looks like. I wasn't planning on starting the show

227
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 1: with this tonight, but I thought it was important coming

228
00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 1: up after the news at the bottom of the hour

229
00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 1: or John Lott is going to be here and we're

230
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:10,199
Speaker 1: going to hear more about why why the numbers of

231
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:18,880
Speaker 1: armed civilians who stop craze shooters. It doesn't get accurately reported,

232
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 1: so that more coming up on the Thursday night edition

233
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 1: of The Midweek Crisis on seven hundred WLW seven hundred

234
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:35,240
Speaker 1: WLW nine, Dan Carroll till midnight tonight, Thursday night edition

235
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 1: of the Midweek Crisis. Glad to be here. So glad

236
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:40,160
Speaker 1: you are here as well. I don't talk about guns

237
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 1: a lot on this show, but what I do I

238
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 1: like to have doctor John Lott on. Doctor John Lott

239
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 1: is the founder of the Crime Prevention Research Center and

240
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 1: it has just done a ton of research on guns

241
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 1: and all the rest of it. And I saw this

242
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 1: headline a day or so ago and I thought, man,

243
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: I really want to have him on to talk about this.

244
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 1: And the headline is this armed citizens stop far more

245
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:14,760
Speaker 1: active shooters than the FBI said a new report reveals,

246
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 1: And doctor John Locke, welcome again to seven hundred WW.

247
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 3: Greod to talk to you again. Thanks for having me on.

248
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,399
Speaker 1: Well, I'm glad you're here. This is a subject that

249
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 1: you have been talking about for how long now, more

250
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,320
Speaker 1: than a decade at least, have you not?

251
00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:39,120
Speaker 3: Yeah? No, I actually wrote my first academic article on

252
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 3: the problems with the FBI active shooting data fifteen. It

253
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 3: was published and I continued working on it. When I

254
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,159
Speaker 3: worked in the US Department of Justice, when I was

255
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 3: Senior Advisor Research and Statistics, one of my tasks was

256
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 3: to look at the possible errors in the FBI active

257
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 3: shooting reports.

258
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, so this is something that that you have discovered

259
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:08,160
Speaker 1: goes on on a regular basis. And even when you

260
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:11,160
Speaker 1: when you point out and I guess have a chance

261
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:12,440
Speaker 1: to talk. I don't know who you talk to in

262
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,920
Speaker 1: the FBI about this, but when you when you're able

263
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,399
Speaker 1: to bring this to their attention, they are reluctant to

264
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,400
Speaker 1: change those numbers. Have you been able to figure out

265
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 1: why that is so?

266
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 3: Well, I mean it's kind of hard to get in

267
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:32,360
Speaker 3: people's minds and they you know, but here's the big problem,

268
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,680
Speaker 3: and think you're touching on it, and that is even

269
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 3: when you get them to agree that their data is incomplete,

270
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,240
Speaker 3: even when you get them to admit that they've missed something,

271
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 3: they don't fix it. There are two types of errors

272
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:52,919
Speaker 3: in what the FBI does. One it's misclassified cases. So

273
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:57,360
Speaker 3: for example, you have something like the church shooting outside

274
00:19:57,359 --> 00:20:03,159
Speaker 3: of Fort Worth, Texas in December twenty nineteen, they say, well,

275
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,200
Speaker 3: it was the security guard that stopped the attack there. Well,

276
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 3: actually it was just a parishioner that was there. The

277
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:13,160
Speaker 3: church said, anybody who has a permanent concealed handgun can

278
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:16,959
Speaker 3: go and carry on church property. We don't even know

279
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,199
Speaker 3: exactly how many people were carrying then, it could have

280
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 3: been like eighteen or twenty. All I can say is

281
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:26,719
Speaker 3: the attacker picked the wrong church to go after. And

282
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,200
Speaker 3: then there are just lots of cases that they miss,

283
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 3: and they just tend to miss one type of case.

284
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 3: So the FBI claims between twenty fourteen and twenty twenty

285
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:41,960
Speaker 3: four there were fourteen cases where legally armed civilian with

286
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:45,159
Speaker 3: a concealed carry permit stopped what they call an active

287
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 3: shooting case. An active shooting case is an instance where

288
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 3: a gun fired in public, not part of some other

289
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,440
Speaker 3: type of crime like a robbery or a gang fight

290
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:58,120
Speaker 3: over drug turf, anything from one person being shot at

291
00:20:58,160 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 3: and missed, all the way up to a mass publisher.

292
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 3: And so they say that over those eleven years, about

293
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:09,560
Speaker 3: four percent of the active shooting cases, fourteen of these

294
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:13,360
Speaker 3: three hundred plus that they have, we're stopped by illegally

295
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:17,640
Speaker 3: armed civilians. We think that the right number is rather

296
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:23,680
Speaker 3: than fourteen, is two hundred and two, and so rather

297
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:27,399
Speaker 3: than rather than four percent, we think that it's actually

298
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:31,880
Speaker 3: about thirty six percent. The problem is also though the

299
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:36,199
Speaker 3: erres have gotten worse in the last couple of years,

300
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 3: the FBI claims that there has not been one single

301
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,840
Speaker 3: active shooting attack anywhere in the United States it's been

302
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 3: stopped by illegally armed civilian. And you know, if you

303
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,880
Speaker 3: look at the data for twenty twenty four, for example,

304
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,480
Speaker 3: they claim of zero. We think it's forty eight percent

305
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:58,440
Speaker 3: of the active shooting attacks were stopped. And one argument

306
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 3: that I had when I was working the Department of

307
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:04,200
Speaker 3: Justice with the FBI people was that, look, guys, if

308
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:08,439
Speaker 3: you're talking about law abiding citizens stopping these attacks, you

309
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,639
Speaker 3: have to separate out places where they're legally allowed to

310
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,440
Speaker 3: carry from places where they're not legally allowed to carry,

311
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,639
Speaker 3: these so called gun free zones. You can't expect a

312
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:23,200
Speaker 3: law abiding citizen to carry a permanent, concealed handgun into

313
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 3: a place where it's illegal for them to carry the gun.

314
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 3: And if you separate out those gun free zones, what

315
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 3: you find that about sixty three percent of the active

316
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:38,880
Speaker 3: shooting cases last year were actually stop in places they

317
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:45,000
Speaker 3: were allowed to carry by legally armed civilians. Sixty three

318
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:51,119
Speaker 3: percent is a lot different than zero and so, and

319
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,560
Speaker 3: nobody needs to take our work for these cases. We

320
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 3: have them listed on our website as well as links

321
00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 3: to the underlying information about each case. People can go

322
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 3: and check them themselves to make sure that they match

323
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:08,679
Speaker 3: the FBI definition. The thing that police departments don't collect

324
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:13,400
Speaker 3: this data. What they have to do is they hired

325
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 3: some researchers down at Texas State University to go and

326
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 3: do a Google News search of all things. But we

327
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 3: don't know how many many millions of dollars they've spent

328
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 3: on this. They won't say, but it's in the many

329
00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 3: millions of dollars. And they just seem to miss these

330
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:36,400
Speaker 3: one types of cases where civilians would have.

331
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 1: Stopped these attacks.

332
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:43,199
Speaker 3: And you know, even when the Washington Post or others

333
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 3: have reached out to the FBI with our lists to

334
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,440
Speaker 3: try to get them to say, you know, why aren't

335
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 3: you including these, the FBI itself will not respond and

336
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:58,159
Speaker 3: will not explain this. When I was working in the

337
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:02,360
Speaker 3: Department of Justice, the FBI without really explaining anything other

338
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 3: than acknowledging that their data wasn't complete. Basically, wouldn't even

339
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:11,040
Speaker 3: respond to people in the Department of Justice. They're be

340
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:14,159
Speaker 3: part of it was the fact that I was a

341
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 3: political point who was going to be out when Trump

342
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 3: left office in January twenty twenty one, and I think

343
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 3: they just wanted to run out the clock rather than

344
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 3: having to deal with it.

345
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, but we don't want an FBI that has anything

346
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: to do with politics, do we. We've got far too

347
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 1: much of that going on. But it just strikes me

348
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 1: that if it is a worthwhile endeavor to catalog these

349
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:46,440
Speaker 1: crimes and look at the numbers that you're talking about,

350
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,919
Speaker 1: isn't it also worthwhile to have those numbers reflect the

351
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 1: truth of the matter. And it just seems to me

352
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 1: like that is a secondary consideration here. And you talked

353
00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 1: about the research and researching. That was one of the

354
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,639
Speaker 1: things I wanted to ask you when when you're looking

355
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 1: at this through the Crime Prevention Research Center, how difficult

356
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 1: is it to obtain this information? How how painstaking is

357
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:16,680
Speaker 1: this research to look at all these different events and

358
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:18,600
Speaker 1: and and get to the truth of the matter on

359
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:19,399
Speaker 1: these things.

360
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 3: Well, it takes time, and you know, we've probably we

361
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 3: haven't spent many millions of dollars on this, like the

362
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:32,439
Speaker 3: FBI spent on it. I mean, we've spent maybe tens

363
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:37,120
Speaker 3: of thousands of dollars on it. But even though we've

364
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 3: haven't spent anywhere near as much, and I don't claim

365
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 3: that I've found all the cases that they may have missed,

366
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:47,720
Speaker 3: but even with our much smaller budget, we found two

367
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:52,159
Speaker 3: hundred and two cases versus the fourteen that they claimed

368
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,400
Speaker 3: that they had found. But, you know, to get take

369
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:57,960
Speaker 3: kind of your earlier point, you know, why is this important? Well,

370
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 3: I mean academics use this all the time for their research.

371
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 3: You have news reports and piece that I wrote up

372
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:10,399
Speaker 3: referenced pieces from the New York Times and Marshton Post

373
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:15,159
Speaker 3: and associated press that had headlines based on this FBI

374
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:20,360
Speaker 3: data saying that, you know, people rarely use guns concealed

375
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:25,119
Speaker 3: carry to stop these active shooting attacks. You have court

376
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 3: cases around the country that rely on this FBI data.

377
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:34,760
Speaker 3: You have legislative debates in places like the federal government

378
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:38,880
Speaker 3: in Washington to various state legislatures that go and deal

379
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,200
Speaker 3: with this. And you know, a lot of this has

380
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 3: to do with things like gun free zones. You know,

381
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 3: when you go through this and you see the large

382
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:53,520
Speaker 3: number of cases of active shooting cases, so mass public

383
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 3: shootings are ones where four more people are killed. You know,

384
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 3: what you find is about ninety two percent of mass

385
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:04,960
Speaker 3: public shootings occur in gun free zones. And it's not

386
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:09,120
Speaker 3: too surprising that the ones where you're seeing a lot

387
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:12,720
Speaker 3: of people killed keep on occurring in places where guns

388
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:18,119
Speaker 3: are banned. You know, anybody who has read the diaries

389
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:22,440
Speaker 3: and manifestos for these mass murderers, like the Catholic school

390
00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:28,360
Speaker 3: shooter in Minneapolis in August, you know he writes explicitly

391
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:32,360
Speaker 3: in his manifesto, and he's not unique. On our website

392
00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:37,360
Speaker 3: at crimeresearch dot org, we've recorded literally several dozen statements

393
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:41,760
Speaker 3: from these mass murderers over the years. I mean, he writes, quote,

394
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,200
Speaker 3: I recently heard a rumor that James Holmes, the Aurora

395
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:48,560
Speaker 3: theater shooter, may have chosen venues that were quote gun

396
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 3: free zones end quote. I would probably aim the same way.

397
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:56,199
Speaker 3: Holmes wanted to make sure his victims would be unarmed.

398
00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:59,480
Speaker 3: That's why I and many others like schools so much.

399
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 3: At least for me, I am focused on them. Adam

400
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:06,240
Speaker 3: Lanza is my reason. Adam Anzo did the Sandy Hook killer.

401
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:10,240
Speaker 3: But it's not just the target, even the time of day.

402
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 3: He didn't want to go and attack early in the

403
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:16,159
Speaker 3: morning when parents were dropping off kids or in the

404
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:19,439
Speaker 3: afternoon when they're picking them up, because he was worried

405
00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:23,119
Speaker 3: that a parent might have a concealed carry permit and

406
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:26,399
Speaker 3: might use it to go and stop his attack, you know.

407
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,639
Speaker 3: And it's you have quotes from the Nashville Covenant school

408
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:34,640
Speaker 3: shooter or a Buffalo supermarket attacker, or on and on

409
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 3: and on where these guys, you know. So the thing

410
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:43,240
Speaker 3: that drives me nuts is that after the Minneapolis case,

411
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 3: for example, no one in the media mentioned that he

412
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 3: had picked the target because it was a gun pri zone,

413
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:55,520
Speaker 3: and they would speculate that, well, maybe he did the

414
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 3: school because his mom used to work there. Well it's possible,

415
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 3: and talk about that and his manifesto. What he talks

416
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:05,440
Speaker 3: about is the fact is the gun for his own.

417
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 3: Or they'll go and they'll say things like, well, you know.

418
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:13,200
Speaker 4: This guy.

419
00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 2: Was you know he.

420
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 3: Talked a lot about other school shooters, or that he

421
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,360
Speaker 3: talked about other mass murderers, And that's true, he did.

422
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 3: But the reason why he talked about them was because

423
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 3: he was learning them about where to go and attack.

424
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 3: And it's one of my biggest pet peeves is how

425
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:39,400
Speaker 3: the media will clearly read the diaries of manifestos but

426
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:44,480
Speaker 3: absolutely refuse to talk about why they picked the targets

427
00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:46,560
Speaker 3: that they do. And I don't know, you're in the

428
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:49,440
Speaker 3: news business, maybe he can explain to me. But it's

429
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,960
Speaker 3: always been I would think that that would be extremely

430
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 3: newsworthy for the media to go and say. Yet we've

431
00:29:55,600 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 3: had yet another mass murder where the person expl delicitly

432
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 3: explained that he picked this target because he wanted to

433
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:07,240
Speaker 3: go to a place where his victims were unarmed.

434
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 1: I couldn't agree. I couldn't agree with you more that

435
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,760
Speaker 1: that that part of the equation always seems to get

436
00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 1: left out of the story. And even if some of

437
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:20,040
Speaker 1: these there's so many of these cases where they simply

438
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:23,280
Speaker 1: disappear from the news, but even the ones that have

439
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 1: legs and ones that stick around for a certain amount

440
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,360
Speaker 1: of time, it seems that that that part of the

441
00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:33,640
Speaker 1: story never seems to make it into the reporting that

442
00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 1: the majority of the people UH see here and reed.

443
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 1: So it it just seems like there's an agenda behind

444
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,480
Speaker 1: all of this, and why while you're talking about this

445
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 1: I'm thinking about an old phrase, and it's it's it's old,

446
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 1: and you know, it's a cliche, and they say cliches

447
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 1: or cliches because they're true. But I think about, you know,

448
00:30:54,720 --> 00:31:00,040
Speaker 1: an armed and armed society is a polite society. And

449
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:03,560
Speaker 1: I think, you know, the more I see reporting like

450
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 1: like you're doing here and these kind of numbers and

451
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 1: just the refusal to actually tell the truth about this,

452
00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 1: the more I think that, you know, that old cliche

453
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,680
Speaker 1: just keeps proving itself to be true time and time again,

454
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:22,880
Speaker 1: that if if, if, if, these individuals who carry these

455
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 1: shootings out, not all of them, but by and large

456
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 1: a vast majority of them, they seek out these targets

457
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,160
Speaker 1: because they know the likelihood they're not going to get

458
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 1: resistances there and they'll be able to do you know,

459
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 1: their their names are going to be spoken all across

460
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 1: the country, and they're going to get the headlines and

461
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:46,040
Speaker 1: they're going to have some some note of infamy about themselves. Yeah,

462
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:51,600
Speaker 1: oh exactly, all right, Well we got to stop it.

463
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, we we got we got to

464
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 1: stop it, and just it. It doesn't seem that hard

465
00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 1: that reasonable, Well people could sit down and get to

466
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 1: the truth of the matter and then let the chips

467
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 1: fall where they may and deal with the issues after that.

468
00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 1: So just being honest about it, it seems like it's

469
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 1: a bridge too far, And I don't know why. If

470
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:14,680
Speaker 1: people want to find out more about you, doctor Lott

471
00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:17,160
Speaker 1: and the Crime Prevention Research Center, how do they do that.

472
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 3: They can find everything we've talked about on our website

473
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 3: at crimeresearch dot org. Crimeresearch dot org.

474
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:29,120
Speaker 1: All right, doctor Lott, always great to have you on.

475
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:31,720
Speaker 1: I always appreciate the time and keep up the great work.

476
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 1: I really appreciate it.

477
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 5: Thank you very much.

478
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:36,880
Speaker 1: All Right, there you go, doctor John Lott of the

479
00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 1: Crime Prevention Research Center. Is it so hard to look

480
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:47,720
Speaker 1: at the numbers and say, look, we're researching this just

481
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:51,160
Speaker 1: like it, And that is exactly what he's doing. They're

482
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:55,560
Speaker 1: just saying, we're researching this just like you are. You

483
00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:57,520
Speaker 1: want to talk about me. We've got to come up

484
00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:01,080
Speaker 1: with a clear definition of mass shootings and look at

485
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:06,120
Speaker 1: the reasons why shooters do this, and look at how

486
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 1: these shooters eventually get stopped. And if they get stopped

487
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:14,120
Speaker 1: by law enforcement, that's great. If they get stopped by

488
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,440
Speaker 1: an armed citizen who happened to be in the right

489
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 1: place in the right time, was able to get the

490
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:23,960
Speaker 1: drop on the shooter. Why can't we report that accurately?

491
00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:28,240
Speaker 1: And I don't know about you, but I think there's

492
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:31,000
Speaker 1: a lot more anecdotal evidence that we see out there.

493
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:33,240
Speaker 1: You know, when I'm looking at my social media, I

494
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:37,440
Speaker 1: see videos all the time from convenience stores and other places,

495
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:43,000
Speaker 1: jewelry stores. Some would be thug pulls out a gun

496
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:49,320
Speaker 1: and winds up wishing he didn't because someone else got

497
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,440
Speaker 1: the drop on it. Nine to fifty four, We got

498
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:53,080
Speaker 1: to get to a break. Who's coming up top of

499
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,720
Speaker 1: the hour? Then after the top of the hour, we'll

500
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,480
Speaker 1: be talking with who are we talking with? Tell me

501
00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:00,440
Speaker 1: let me find mine, let me find my list here

Speaker 4: It's always a pleasure, man. I'm you know, I'm looking

517
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:55,040
Speaker 4: forward to having a president who gets the Nobel Peace

518
00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:58,320
Speaker 4: Prize because he actually did something that's gonna be nice.

519
00:34:58,360 --> 00:34:59,480
Speaker 4: We hadn't had that in a while.

520
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:04,399
Speaker 1: It's the one who got the Peace Prize before him,

521
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:08,080
Speaker 1: BARACKO Bob. I mean, he was really showed himself, I think,

522
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,320
Speaker 1: to be the bigger person that he is by putting

523
00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:14,839
Speaker 1: out that complimentary statement that he put out earlier today.

524
00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:17,880
Speaker 1: Don't you think he really went the extra mile to

525
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,120
Speaker 1: show himself to be the great statesman that he really is.

526
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:27,000
Speaker 4: What a toddler. I just I go back to this

527
00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:28,440
Speaker 4: over and over again.

528
00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:28,799
Speaker 5: Dan.

529
00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:33,680
Speaker 4: You know, I'm an assignment editor with Western, so I'm

530
00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 4: sending notes all over the place all day. Hey here,

531
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 4: let's take a look at this. Here's the way to

532
00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:42,319
Speaker 4: cover this. And one of my refrains for the last

533
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:47,120
Speaker 4: two months has been this is what toddlers do, and

534
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 4: it doesn't It helps that I have a granddaughter, a

535
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:56,160
Speaker 4: toddler granddaughter living with me, and so I am reminded

536
00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:59,480
Speaker 4: daily about what toddlers are. And toddlers want what they

537
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 4: want right when they want it. If they don't get it,

538
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:05,359
Speaker 4: they pitch a fit. And here's the bad thing. They

539
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:09,239
Speaker 4: don't think more than two seconds ahead of themselves. So

540
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,239
Speaker 4: they want things that will literally kill them. And if

541
00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:14,520
Speaker 4: you will give those things to them, they'll use them

542
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:18,360
Speaker 4: to kill themselves. And that is what democrats are doing,

543
00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:23,400
Speaker 4: ripped large right now. They are toddlers stamping their feet

544
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:26,760
Speaker 4: because we will not give them the tools they need

545
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:30,320
Speaker 4: to take the Republic down. Sorry, how's that for an opener?

546
00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:35,120
Speaker 1: That's pretty good. But you know Obama comes out and

547
00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:39,960
Speaker 1: talks about the conflict and you know, the unimaginable loss

548
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,680
Speaker 1: and the suffering for these he can't bring himself to

549
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:49,200
Speaker 1: put the name Donald Trump in his congratulatory statement, can't

550
00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:53,319
Speaker 1: bring himself to be in fact, he just acts like

551
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:56,840
Speaker 1: like this just is something that occurred naturally and we

552
00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 1: should all be happy about it. And they and he

553
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:01,680
Speaker 1: doesn't he doesn't want to give He don't want to

554
00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:03,719
Speaker 1: give any credit to that, and Yahoo don't want to

555
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,319
Speaker 1: give any credit to Jared Kushin. I don't want to give

556
00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:10,480
Speaker 1: any credit to the people who actually did the hard

557
00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:14,239
Speaker 1: work that that the Biden administration couldn't do.

558
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:15,040
Speaker 2: So.

559
00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:17,520
Speaker 1: And so you know, I mean, you know, good, good

560
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,279
Speaker 1: for Obama that he put out a statement on it.

561
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:22,920
Speaker 6: You know what, I what I love is it not

562
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:27,440
Speaker 6: even Obama is a big enough liar or spinmeister that

563
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:29,759
Speaker 6: he tried to bring Joe Biden into it. And to

564
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:33,640
Speaker 6: say Joe Biden laid wonderful ground not even he tried that.

565
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 6: You know, he's silent, not only on Trump.

566
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:39,840
Speaker 1: I haven't seen anyone trying to make I was looking

567
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 1: for it all day today that Joe Biden laid the

568
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:45,480
Speaker 1: groundwork and blowed because you know, it wasn't Joe Biden.

569
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,680
Speaker 1: Isn't that all we heard about Joe Biden, that his

570
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:52,440
Speaker 1: foreign policy experience was going to take this country to

571
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:55,600
Speaker 1: a new level, a new level of respect. Yeah, you know,

572
00:37:55,680 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 1: a new level of you know, the world Genuflex being

573
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:04,640
Speaker 1: at the feet of Joe Biden because of his vast

574
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:06,719
Speaker 1: foreign policy experience.

575
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:12,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, the guy who had been wrong on literally every

576
00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:17,440
Speaker 4: single foreign policy decision for forty four years. And not

577
00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:21,640
Speaker 4: only that, not only was there supposually that vast experience Dan,

578
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,279
Speaker 4: Remember the grown ups were in charge again. All of

579
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:28,200
Speaker 4: a sudden, we were told that, oh the children, you know,

580
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:32,680
Speaker 4: it's protection. They called Trumpet Toddler. The children are out

581
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 4: of the White House now in twenty twenty and in

582
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:37,320
Speaker 4: twenty twenty one, we'll have the adults back in control.

583
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:38,480
Speaker 4: And what did the adults do?

584
00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:39,399
Speaker 1: Well?

585
00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:42,800
Speaker 4: They got Ukraine invaded, they got a the bloodiest ground

586
00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:46,879
Speaker 4: war in Europe since World War Two, and they got

587
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:52,160
Speaker 4: the bloodiest conflict in the Middle East since least the

588
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 4: Iran Iraq War. So that's what, Yeah, that's what his

589
00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:01,399
Speaker 4: vast experience, Joe Biden's vast sperience got us. What did

590
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:05,680
Speaker 4: Trump's inexperience He wasn't a politician, he wasn't a diplomat.

591
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:07,400
Speaker 4: What did that get us? The first time around? It

592
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:10,000
Speaker 4: got us the Abraham Accords, It got us closer to

593
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 4: peace in the Middle East than we have ever been.

594
00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 4: And now less than a year in to Trump forty seven,

595
00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:20,520
Speaker 4: it looks and I'm trying to I'm trying to be

596
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:25,600
Speaker 4: careful with this, Dan, because the hamaflies, the Palestinians cannot

597
00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:28,919
Speaker 4: be trusted even a little bit, and they may try

598
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 4: to reneg on this. Yet in fact, they will try.

599
00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:33,879
Speaker 4: They will try to reneg on it at some point.

600
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 4: It's just a question whether or not they do it

601
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,440
Speaker 4: before the hostages or exchange. So I'm trying not to

602
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:43,920
Speaker 4: get my help hopes up too high, because man, well,

603
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:47,520
Speaker 4: I guess it really doesn't matter because the media, being

604
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:53,440
Speaker 4: staggeringly is clearly being about this right now. But as

605
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:56,480
Speaker 4: soon as there is a whiff of a problem, you know,

606
00:39:56,520 --> 00:40:00,080
Speaker 4: they will turn on They'll turn on Trump like us.

607
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,920
Speaker 1: Got a blood but that But that's what you know.

608
00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:04,680
Speaker 1: When when I asked you to be on the show tonight,

609
00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:10,200
Speaker 1: I asked myself, how is Josh Manning processing this? That

610
00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:12,879
Speaker 1: that it's a twenty point piece plan. There's a lot

611
00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 1: of moving parts going on here. I think the behind

612
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:20,399
Speaker 1: the scenes, when the behind the scenes of this negotiation

613
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:22,640
Speaker 1: that got us to the point where we're at right

614
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:26,719
Speaker 1: now is going to be fascinating, too, absolutely fascinating to

615
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 1: so to read that and and find out how this

616
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:32,759
Speaker 1: negotiation came to pass and to get us to the

617
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:37,960
Speaker 1: point where we're at now. But the notion that that

618
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:43,160
Speaker 1: Homas is going to lay down its weapons, agree to

619
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:47,160
Speaker 1: be peaceful. Uh, we know, whatever remains of Hamas at

620
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:51,319
Speaker 1: this point, what happens to them that they're you know,

621
00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:54,920
Speaker 1: Israel is going to release all these hardcore terrorists and

622
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:56,919
Speaker 1: they're going to be back back in the mix.

623
00:40:57,560 --> 00:40:57,640
Speaker 2: Uh.

624
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:00,920
Speaker 1: Can you get your head around the note that Hamas

625
00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:05,719
Speaker 1: is simply going to dissolve or go away or you know,

626
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:09,160
Speaker 1: start running, Yeah, you know, start running you know food

627
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:11,719
Speaker 1: carts or food trucks and you know, be part of

628
00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 1: the great redevelopment there in Gaza.

629
00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:17,640
Speaker 4: Well, they do have experience with food trucks. They steal

630
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,960
Speaker 4: them all the time and play to your strength. That's

631
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 4: what I always say. Uh yeah, So I think what

632
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,600
Speaker 4: will happen? I am having trouble getting my head around it.

633
00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:28,279
Speaker 4: It is there are a ton of moving parts, as

634
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:31,360
Speaker 4: you said, uh, as far as the Hamas east of it.

635
00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:35,160
Speaker 4: I think what's going to happen is that what or

636
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:39,040
Speaker 4: maybe one hundred or so left who were really involved

637
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:43,360
Speaker 4: in October seventh there. I think they will essentially be exiled.

638
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:46,719
Speaker 4: They will leave Gaza, They will leave that area and

639
00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:50,719
Speaker 4: find shelter in Uh, I would guess in Iran, but

640
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:54,759
Speaker 4: I don't know the As far as the terrorists who

641
00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:59,600
Speaker 4: are being released from Israeli prisons and the hostage exchange,

642
00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:03,759
Speaker 4: I would guess that the same thing is true of them.

643
00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:08,200
Speaker 4: And this idea of having an international board. I'm more

644
00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:12,960
Speaker 4: skeptical of international I g o's international governmental organizations like

645
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,799
Speaker 4: the UN or League of Nations or whatever. But the

646
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:19,920
Speaker 4: idea of having all the stakeholders in that area having

647
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:22,799
Speaker 4: a vote in control of Gaza, with Trump running the

648
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:25,919
Speaker 4: whole darn thing, I think that's probably a good one,

649
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:33,320
Speaker 4: because every the the Amaradis want peace there, the Saudis

650
00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:38,520
Speaker 4: want peace there. The Egyptians really want peace there. You know,

651
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:41,880
Speaker 4: the Iranians who are the pariah state, they're they're the

652
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:44,319
Speaker 4: ones who don't want peace. The Hoosies don't, but they

653
00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:47,160
Speaker 4: don't particularly matter. Every time they launch a missile, we

654
00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:49,439
Speaker 4: just take a power plant or report away from them,

655
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:51,520
Speaker 4: so they're they're, you know, they're kind of learned their lesson.

656
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:57,120
Speaker 4: I am optimistic about this, but I'm I'll tell you, though, Dan,

657
00:42:57,239 --> 00:43:00,919
Speaker 4: we've never talked about this. I'm an evangelical Christian. I'm

658
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:07,600
Speaker 4: very curious about what this idea of a spontaneous, really

659
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:10,880
Speaker 4: unconnected pace in the Middle East, if that's a harbinger

660
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:13,440
Speaker 4: for other things. But that's kind of outside the realm

661
00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:17,520
Speaker 4: of politics. I'm I'm waiting with baited breath that's unfold.

662
00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:21,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, it'll be an absolute miracle if Trump can get

663
00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:27,440
Speaker 1: them to the point to where if there's actual peace

664
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:29,919
Speaker 1: for a while and they start looking around and they say,

665
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:32,200
Speaker 1: you know what, this piece thing is pretty good. You know,

666
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 1: it's good. It's good for me, it's good for my neighbors,

667
00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:38,520
Speaker 1: it's good for the people who've been suffering for a

668
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:43,880
Speaker 1: long time. And maybe maybe that'll that'll catch hold. But

669
00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:46,880
Speaker 1: but you know, this conflict has been going on since,

670
00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:49,239
Speaker 1: you know, long before you and I were born, and

671
00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:52,080
Speaker 1: they I can't help but think it's going to be

672
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:54,840
Speaker 1: going on long after you and I are no longer

673
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:56,320
Speaker 1: bumping around on this planet.

674
00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:00,600
Speaker 4: You know, if you can get but I think what

675
00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:03,960
Speaker 4: you said is really important. If you can get some

676
00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:07,759
Speaker 4: of these Palestinians, the ones who are angriest, if you

677
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:10,120
Speaker 4: can get them back into Jordan, if you can get

678
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:11,960
Speaker 4: Jordan to absorb some of them, if you can, in

679
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:14,120
Speaker 4: fact get each of these states to absorb some of them,

680
00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 4: and they don't want them. By the way, the Palestinians

681
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:18,920
Speaker 4: are the rejects of the Middle East. The Arab countries

682
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:21,560
Speaker 4: act like, oh, they're so mistreated. It's the Arab countries

683
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:23,360
Speaker 4: who hate them and won't take them in. But anyway,

684
00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:25,359
Speaker 4: if we can disperse them a little bit, and if

685
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:28,239
Speaker 4: we can actually it's the only time to ever hear

686
00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:30,759
Speaker 4: me say we need more diversity. We can get more

687
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:34,200
Speaker 4: diversity in Gaza from people who understand that there is

688
00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 4: more to life than hate, and that that is incredible

689
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:40,840
Speaker 4: land and you actually could have an amazing, prosperous, gorgeous

690
00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:45,960
Speaker 4: safe area. You know, to your point, maybe maybe Palestinians

691
00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:47,520
Speaker 4: who are still there, we'll look around and say, hey,

692
00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:50,400
Speaker 4: maybe maybe we've got to give this a try. But

693
00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:53,439
Speaker 4: I don't know, Dan, I mean, it took until what

694
00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:56,279
Speaker 4: three was it, three or four months ago that the

695
00:44:56,320 --> 00:45:01,960
Speaker 4: majority of Palestinians in Gaza they were still supporting Amas,

696
00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:06,200
Speaker 4: still saying, ah, yeah, it was worth it. So I'm

697
00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:11,239
Speaker 4: I'm very skeptical about them. But but what I do

698
00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:13,720
Speaker 4: know is there's there are powerful nations in that area.

699
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:18,200
Speaker 4: They all want peace there, and uh, We're going to

700
00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:21,279
Speaker 4: have an opportunity here. It's the only thing left because look,

701
00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:25,800
Speaker 4: Israel gave them their own country. Yeah, Gazza was autonomous,

702
00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:28,280
Speaker 4: they had their own government. Israel left them with billions

703
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 4: of dollars of infrastructure twenty years ago. And what did

704
00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:33,920
Speaker 4: they do. They had one election one time. That's how

705
00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:37,600
Speaker 4: democracy works with Islam. One election one time, and then

706
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:40,960
Speaker 4: they destroyed the infrastructure and took all money that Israel

707
00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:44,760
Speaker 4: was giving them to build concrete bunkers. Uh, to shelter

708
00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:47,080
Speaker 4: hamas leadership and keep hostages.

709
00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:50,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, bunkers and worked.

710
00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:53,440
Speaker 4: It don't work. There's not another plan. This doesn't work.

711
00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:54,279
Speaker 4: There's not another plan.

712
00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:58,120
Speaker 1: Well, we'll see, we'll see what happens with that. The

713
00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:01,799
Speaker 1: other breaking news tonight, Latsia James. You know, I used

714
00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:03,800
Speaker 1: I used to have a football coach who liked to

715
00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:07,200
Speaker 1: use the phrase that turnabout is fair play, and uh,

716
00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:11,200
Speaker 1: I think I think that applies here. And that interesting

717
00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:15,319
Speaker 1: that she's been indicted now on this uh, this notion

718
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:19,640
Speaker 1: that she uh you know, gave false information so she

719
00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:22,640
Speaker 1: could get a better deal on a home mortgage. Where

720
00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:23,720
Speaker 1: have we heard that one before?

721
00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:28,520
Speaker 4: I I'll tell you, I want her and ellen Omar.

722
00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:30,640
Speaker 4: I want them to see the show on the road,

723
00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:34,040
Speaker 4: and the whole thing is gonna be about how you

724
00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 4: marry a relative to get citizenship or better loan terms,

725
00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:45,319
Speaker 4: because you know elen Omar allegedly, I mean, let's make

726
00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:51,000
Speaker 4: she did married her brother to get him in and uh,

727
00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:55,040
Speaker 4: Letitia James listed not on one document, but on two documents,

728
00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:57,680
Speaker 4: listed her father as her husband. So a whole lot

729
00:46:57,719 --> 00:47:00,640
Speaker 4: of a whole lot of special love on on over

730
00:47:00,680 --> 00:47:02,120
Speaker 4: there in the Democrat Party.

731
00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:02,400
Speaker 7: Very.

732
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:06,680
Speaker 4: A very cosmopolitan take on love.

733
00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:07,960
Speaker 2: Not for cousins.

734
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:12,120
Speaker 4: They're okay with it's uh, it's daughters and brothers and

735
00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:15,439
Speaker 4: these things. But but yeah, and I mean, I love

736
00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:18,480
Speaker 4: it's poetic that she's accused. She's not charged with the

737
00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:21,000
Speaker 4: same thing she charged Donald Trump with. What I love.

738
00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:25,719
Speaker 4: It's so stupid, you know. She said Trump overvalued mar

739
00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:30,160
Speaker 4: A Lago at twenty seven billion. Trump said, our twenty

740
00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:33,080
Speaker 4: seven million. Pardon me, Trump said, what are you talking about?

741
00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:35,759
Speaker 4: It's that thing's worth seven hundred and fifty million. That

742
00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:38,720
Speaker 4: they get the outsiders to come in and talk about

743
00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:41,600
Speaker 4: it and a praise and look at it. They say, no, no,

744
00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:45,239
Speaker 4: those things over a billion. Bus Man and then then

745
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:51,160
Speaker 4: Deutsche Bank, who they were the ones who gave the loan, said,

746
00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:52,680
Speaker 4: I don't know you paid them back, paid them back,

747
00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:54,080
Speaker 4: every interest was great, Hey we.

748
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:54,879
Speaker 2: Do this again.

749
00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:59,040
Speaker 4: I don't hear, yeah, I don't hear anybody saying the

750
00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:02,480
Speaker 4: same thing about the loans that she fraudulently took out.

751
00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:04,080
Speaker 4: For some reason, I don't hear that.

752
00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:07,320
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe that'll maybe that'll all come out of trial

753
00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:10,040
Speaker 1: so that that'll be maybe that'll be a great one

754
00:48:10,080 --> 00:48:12,880
Speaker 1: to watch. And then I gotta tell you, I had

755
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:15,560
Speaker 1: never heard of this woman out in California who's running

756
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:19,720
Speaker 1: for governor, Katie Porter. I guess she's an assembly member.

757
00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:23,040
Speaker 1: But this is one evil woman. This, this is I

758
00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:25,560
Speaker 1: saw a clip of her earlier today and she was

759
00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:28,560
Speaker 1: on some news show I guess in the night that

760
00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:31,960
Speaker 1: Trump got elected. And she tells a story about and

761
00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:35,480
Speaker 1: and she and she at that time she was playing

762
00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:37,160
Speaker 1: not There's no doubt in my mind she was planning

763
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:40,000
Speaker 1: to run for governor. But she told the story about

764
00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:42,839
Speaker 1: her twelve year old daughter. And she says, my twelve

765
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:44,759
Speaker 1: year old daughter talked to me and said, I'm sad

766
00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:48,160
Speaker 1: because what if I need an abortion? Are you kidding me?

767
00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:51,640
Speaker 1: You're you're gonna you're gonna sell out your twelve year

768
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:55,320
Speaker 1: old daughter with a disgusting story like that just for

769
00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:59,000
Speaker 1: your political aggrandizement. And then apparently she doesn't treat the

770
00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:00,960
Speaker 1: people who work for her very well either.

771
00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:03,840
Speaker 2: Have you seen.

772
00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:07,239
Speaker 4: We've all seen the you're in my shot, Get out

773
00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:07,640
Speaker 4: of my shot.

774
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:08,600
Speaker 2: Have you seen the.

775
00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:13,200
Speaker 4: One where she where she fired the staffer who had

776
00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:15,000
Speaker 4: had a friend murdered. Have you seen that one?

777
00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:16,440
Speaker 1: No, I have not seen that one.

778
00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:18,080
Speaker 4: Oh oh yeah, I mean.

779
00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:20,560
Speaker 1: She's got a series of really bad videos out there.

780
00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:26,040
Speaker 4: Back in twenty twenty two, Yes, she fired a staffer

781
00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:30,480
Speaker 4: who came into the office and had COVID, had not

782
00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:35,120
Speaker 4: tested positive for COVID, and the staffer said, look, I've

783
00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:37,200
Speaker 4: been working out. I thought I was just sore from that,

784
00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:40,759
Speaker 4: and look I just messed up. My head's not really

785
00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:43,800
Speaker 4: in the right place. Yesterday, my best friend from the navy,

786
00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:45,719
Speaker 4: she was a vet. My best friend from the Navy

787
00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:51,040
Speaker 4: was murdered. And the very next thing the porter said

788
00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:54,320
Speaker 4: to her was, well, you gave me COVID.

789
00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:55,480
Speaker 1: Oh, for God's sake.

790
00:49:56,640 --> 00:50:00,640
Speaker 4: Now, remember remember Dan, they were all vaccinate and we

791
00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:05,360
Speaker 4: were assured that if you were vaccinated, you couldn't get COVID.

792
00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:06,000
Speaker 2: Remember that.

793
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:08,920
Speaker 4: So, I mean, this is a world. This is a

794
00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:14,480
Speaker 4: horrible woman a string in Earlier today I described her

795
00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:19,160
Speaker 4: as a a brawl less, walking avalanche of flesh. That's

796
00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:22,759
Speaker 4: what she looks like to me, And I apologized her

797
00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:25,760
Speaker 4: that was over delighted. I don't mean to be vulgar,

798
00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:30,480
Speaker 4: but watch the video or better, better yet looking to it,

799
00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:32,320
Speaker 4: because then you don't have to watch her. You know,

800
00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:36,439
Speaker 4: she attacked her husband with with boiling hot potatoes one time.

801
00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:38,320
Speaker 4: That she's an untit.

802
00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:40,640
Speaker 1: She's a lovely way. And you wonder how you could

803
00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:43,120
Speaker 1: possibly get a worse governor than Gavin Newsom. This is

804
00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:46,279
Speaker 1: how you do it, California. So I mean, and isn't

805
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:49,160
Speaker 1: she leading in the polls out there right now? Isn't

806
00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:51,759
Speaker 1: she like? Oh for good?

807
00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:53,640
Speaker 4: We don't have new pulling as far as I know,

808
00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:55,719
Speaker 4: As far as I know, there's not new polling. But

809
00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:56,759
Speaker 4: who's got to hit her?

810
00:50:56,840 --> 00:50:57,280
Speaker 3: I love.

811
00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:01,560
Speaker 1: With the local television reporter. You if you're going to

812
00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:04,040
Speaker 1: ask follow up questions and I'm calling them love leaving.

813
00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:10,400
Speaker 4: I don't want this on camera. Oh my god, I

814
00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:11,560
Speaker 4: don't want this on camera.

815
00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:14,279
Speaker 1: Well, she you know she she definitely needs someone to

816
00:51:15,120 --> 00:51:16,640
Speaker 1: to put her in a better outfit if she's going

817
00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:17,640
Speaker 1: to be sitting in profile.

818
00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:22,600
Speaker 4: My favorite yeah, exactly right. My favorite part of that though,

819
00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:26,920
Speaker 4: was where she apparently had seen the list of questions

820
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:28,360
Speaker 4: she was going to be asked ahead of time, or

821
00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:33,480
Speaker 4: the list of topics, and she got furious that she

822
00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:36,200
Speaker 4: might have to answer something not on that list.

823
00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:38,960
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, Kamala Harris doesn't like to ask questions that

824
00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:40,480
Speaker 1: she's not prep for either.

825
00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:43,760
Speaker 4: We're back to where we started.

848
00:52:50,719 --> 00:52:53,640
Speaker 1: here's this guy Gary Click again. Man, he's just uh,

849
00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:56,919
Speaker 1: you know, wants us all to have religion in schools now,

850
00:52:57,120 --> 00:53:01,120
Speaker 1: and God knows we can't have that religion in schools.

851
00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:04,600
Speaker 1: What's so tell me about this that this latest brain

852
00:53:04,719 --> 00:53:06,200
Speaker 1: story that you had.

853
00:53:06,080 --> 00:53:08,839
Speaker 2: About God forbid that we love God?

854
00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:09,080
Speaker 8: Right?

855
00:53:10,640 --> 00:53:10,800
Speaker 9: You know?

856
00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:13,120
Speaker 2: And by the way, I just I've been listening to

857
00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:15,160
Speaker 2: you and I just got one quick question before we

858
00:53:15,239 --> 00:53:18,920
Speaker 2: get into that. It's how many Nobel Peace prices can

859
00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:19,960
Speaker 2: one president earn?

860
00:53:21,560 --> 00:53:24,680
Speaker 1: That's a good question. That's a good question. Uh, well

861
00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:28,560
Speaker 1: we'll see what. Look if if I don't know that

862
00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:32,160
Speaker 1: much about the Nobel Committee, but if they can't see

863
00:53:32,239 --> 00:53:35,560
Speaker 1: their way to uh, if if, if this thing works

864
00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:38,799
Speaker 1: in the Middle East, Uh, and they can't see their

865
00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:41,319
Speaker 1: way to to name Trump uh.

866
00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:43,280
Speaker 2: Worthless?

867
00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:46,120
Speaker 1: There, yeah, I mean there, they'll prove themselves to be

868
00:53:46,719 --> 00:53:51,040
Speaker 1: completely illegitimate, completely and totally illegitimate.

869
00:53:51,480 --> 00:53:56,440
Speaker 2: Well that's right. Well, Well into HBO six Charlie Kirk

870
00:53:56,520 --> 00:54:00,120
Speaker 2: American here at Jack. You know, I'm on a to

871
00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:00,600
Speaker 2: carry that.

872
00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:01,360
Speaker 9: You know.

873
00:54:01,600 --> 00:54:04,320
Speaker 2: I met Charlie just once. I met him last December

874
00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:08,840
Speaker 2: at the National Association of Christian Lawmakers. He was speaking

875
00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:13,040
Speaker 2: there and we talked just a little bit. But you know,

876
00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:15,839
Speaker 2: I was devastated, you know when I heard the news

877
00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:18,440
Speaker 2: on September tenth of what happened, and really, you know,

878
00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:21,160
Speaker 2: makes you think, where are we of a country? You know,

879
00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:23,040
Speaker 2: And it's not like I knew him personally, but it

880
00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:25,960
Speaker 2: was really it was an attack on America. It was

881
00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:27,160
Speaker 2: an attack on our face.

882
00:54:27,840 --> 00:54:28,000
Speaker 9: You know.

883
00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:30,400
Speaker 2: I got to thinking, you know, I had a conversation

884
00:54:30,560 --> 00:54:33,800
Speaker 2: with our good buddy Adam Bird on my podcast. I

885
00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:37,800
Speaker 2: just started podcasters clicking, Yeah, what's clicking? What do you

886
00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:38,440
Speaker 2: think of that name?

887
00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:40,759
Speaker 1: But what's it called? Again?

888
00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:43,120
Speaker 2: What clicking?

889
00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:47,479
Speaker 1: What's clicking? With Gary Klick? I like that that very.

890
00:54:49,080 --> 00:54:52,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, we talked about that because Rida McLean and text

891
00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:56,719
Speaker 2: Fisher have a resolution not just to honor Charlie Kirk.

892
00:54:57,320 --> 00:54:59,520
Speaker 2: And you know, Texts was one of the first one

893
00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:02,960
Speaker 2: employe of Turning Point Us. I didn't know that until then.

894
00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:07,239
Speaker 2: And Adam made this comment, he said, you know, he

895
00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:12,280
Speaker 2: said that Charlie was the perfect combination of Billy Graham

896
00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:16,600
Speaker 2: at Rushman Ball and I can't think of any better.

897
00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:19,279
Speaker 2: I can't think of any better way to describe him.

898
00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:22,239
Speaker 2: And so for many of us it felt like it

899
00:55:22,360 --> 00:55:26,160
Speaker 2: was an attack on us personally because he was a conservative,

900
00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:30,640
Speaker 2: but his conservatives was motivated by his Christian faith, and

901
00:55:30,800 --> 00:55:34,520
Speaker 2: you really can't separate the two. And he was one

902
00:55:34,520 --> 00:55:36,360
Speaker 2: who would go back and talk about our history. He

903
00:55:36,400 --> 00:55:38,600
Speaker 2: would talk about our hairs, he would talk about our roots.

904
00:55:39,320 --> 00:55:43,279
Speaker 2: And what I've observed in the schools lately and not

905
00:55:43,480 --> 00:55:48,320
Speaker 2: just lately, but over the years is deconstruction. Deconstructionism comes in.

906
00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:51,120
Speaker 2: And what that does is you just stopped talking about

907
00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:53,400
Speaker 2: the truth. You don't start telling the lie yet, you

908
00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:56,959
Speaker 2: just start not telling the truth. Because if he started lying,

909
00:55:57,200 --> 00:55:59,080
Speaker 2: the parents would know it immediately and they say, no,

910
00:55:59,280 --> 00:56:01,400
Speaker 2: your teacher saw wrong. They go in, they correct it,

911
00:56:01,400 --> 00:56:04,239
Speaker 2: and they picked everything. But it takes a couple of

912
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:08,000
Speaker 2: generations and they stop telling the truth for one generation,

913
00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:10,120
Speaker 2: and so then you have a generation that doesn't know,

914
00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:12,920
Speaker 2: and then the next generation they start telling them a

915
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:16,240
Speaker 2: lie and they start injecting things like DEI and so forth,

916
00:56:16,840 --> 00:56:19,680
Speaker 2: and this post structuralism that comes in, and that's sort

917
00:56:19,719 --> 00:56:22,719
Speaker 2: of a culture and historical amnesia. You forget where you

918
00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:24,839
Speaker 2: came from. And when we forget where we came from,

919
00:56:25,520 --> 00:56:30,520
Speaker 2: then we have untethered ourselves from our history, and that's

920
00:56:30,560 --> 00:56:32,960
Speaker 2: going to be a danger to our future. And it's

921
00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:35,920
Speaker 2: like I said in our committee, I said, without Christianity

922
00:56:35,960 --> 00:56:39,400
Speaker 2: and American history, there would be no American history. And

923
00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:42,320
Speaker 2: sometimes I also add to that. I did not in committee,

924
00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:45,080
Speaker 2: but sometimes I alside to that without Christianity in our future,

925
00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:49,440
Speaker 2: we have no American future because Christianity is the secret ingredient.

926
00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:52,600
Speaker 2: Now when I say that Christianity is what brings religious

927
00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:55,400
Speaker 2: freedom to America, hey, you know, in a Christian America,

928
00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:57,160
Speaker 2: you're welcome to be a Muslim, You're welcome to be

929
00:56:57,200 --> 00:56:59,799
Speaker 2: a Hindan. You're wanting to be an atheist, You're welcome

930
00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:02,799
Speaker 2: to be agnostic, You're welcome to be whatever you want

931
00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:07,440
Speaker 2: to be. But we came from a society where the

932
00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:10,760
Speaker 2: Pilgrims fled. And by the way, the Pilgrims were a church.

933
00:57:11,680 --> 00:57:14,800
Speaker 2: If you look at the embarkation, that twelve to eighteen

934
00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:18,560
Speaker 2: portrait in the rotunda in the Capitol building, it's a

935
00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:21,000
Speaker 2: prayer meeting on board the speed well. The speedwell was

936
00:57:21,120 --> 00:57:23,680
Speaker 2: proven to be unseaworthy, so they had to just combine

937
00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:25,560
Speaker 2: and all come over on the Mayflower, and some had

938
00:57:25,600 --> 00:57:28,760
Speaker 2: to stay behind. And it was Pastor John Robinson in

939
00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:30,840
Speaker 2: the middle holding the Bible with the name of Jesus

940
00:57:30,960 --> 00:57:34,040
Speaker 2: Christ's scroll across it in this portrait that sits in

941
00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:38,320
Speaker 2: our nation's capital, and their hands are lifted in prayer

942
00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:41,320
Speaker 2: or folded in prayer. They're on their knees, they're looking

943
00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:46,160
Speaker 2: towards Heaven, and the sale behind them says God with us.

944
00:57:46,680 --> 00:57:50,360
Speaker 2: Behind them is a rainbow that depicts not what people

945
00:57:50,440 --> 00:57:53,280
Speaker 2: think it depicts today, but it depicts the promises of God.

946
00:57:53,720 --> 00:57:57,560
Speaker 2: And this was a church that actually sent half of

947
00:57:57,640 --> 00:58:01,920
Speaker 2: its members to the New World to start a new church.

948
00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:06,520
Speaker 2: And when they got here, as you know the story,

949
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:09,440
Speaker 2: they were like four hundred miles off course and they

950
00:58:09,480 --> 00:58:11,160
Speaker 2: didn't land where they were supposed to have and have

951
00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:14,640
Speaker 2: a charter, so they formed self government right there before

952
00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:16,480
Speaker 2: they got off with what we call the day the

953
00:58:16,560 --> 00:58:19,240
Speaker 2: Mayflower Compact. It used to have a much longer name.

954
00:58:19,760 --> 00:58:21,680
Speaker 2: It starts in the name of God, and it talks

955
00:58:21,680 --> 00:58:24,960
Speaker 2: about spreading the glorious Gospel in the light of Jesus Christ.

956
00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:28,840
Speaker 2: And that's not to say that we had a church state,

957
00:58:29,560 --> 00:58:33,440
Speaker 2: but that we were founded on the basic principles of scripture.

958
00:58:34,280 --> 00:58:39,480
Speaker 2: Donald Blutz to study of the Founding Era and where

959
00:58:39,520 --> 00:58:42,320
Speaker 2: did all the citations come from. Everyone wants to give

960
00:58:42,400 --> 00:58:44,320
Speaker 2: John Locke a lot of credit, and he deserves credit.

961
00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:47,760
Speaker 2: So does Monusque, so does Blackstone, so does Hume. But

962
00:58:47,960 --> 00:58:50,160
Speaker 2: if you take and combine all three of them together,

963
00:58:50,240 --> 00:58:52,880
Speaker 2: that's about twenty one percent of all the quotes of

964
00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:55,760
Speaker 2: the Founding probabies in the Founding Era. But you know

965
00:58:56,160 --> 00:58:58,680
Speaker 2: that's the four of them together. But the Bible itself

966
00:58:58,800 --> 00:59:01,360
Speaker 2: was quoted thirty four percent of the time. That's more

967
00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:04,560
Speaker 2: than any of them, all of them combined. Deuteronomy was

968
00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:09,000
Speaker 2: quoted more than Locke, and Monusque and Blackstone, and the

969
00:59:09,040 --> 00:59:12,280
Speaker 2: apostle Paul was quoted more than any of them all

970
00:59:12,360 --> 00:59:16,440
Speaker 2: by himself, and they in Deuteronomy. That was when the

971
00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:19,840
Speaker 2: children of Israel were going into the New Land and

972
00:59:20,080 --> 00:59:23,480
Speaker 2: Moses was laying out for them the principles of a republic,

973
00:59:23,560 --> 00:59:26,480
Speaker 2: a republican form of government. And that's where we learned

974
00:59:26,560 --> 00:59:29,520
Speaker 2: many of the principles that established us. That's where we

975
00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:34,600
Speaker 2: learned the three three parts of government, you know, the legislative,

976
00:59:34,600 --> 00:59:37,240
Speaker 2: of the judicial and the executive. You know, God is

977
00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:39,840
Speaker 2: our king, our judge, and our lawmaker. That's from the scriptures.

978
00:59:40,520 --> 00:59:44,080
Speaker 2: And so we implanted those principles. Even the non Christians

979
00:59:44,160 --> 00:59:48,560
Speaker 2: like Thomas Jefferson, like Benjamin Franklin, they understood the value

980
00:59:48,600 --> 00:59:52,440
Speaker 2: of Christianity. Thomas Paine, he's the one i'd call the heretic.

981
00:59:53,120 --> 00:59:56,400
Speaker 2: He certainly was not a Christian. He wrote Common Sense,

982
00:59:56,800 --> 00:59:58,360
Speaker 2: and you know what he did in Common Sense, that

983
00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:01,280
Speaker 2: book pamphlet common Sense, he borrowed from everyone else. He

984
01:00:01,360 --> 01:00:07,680
Speaker 2: borrowed from Christian theology, and he quoted Scripture to justify independence.

985
01:00:08,440 --> 01:00:10,600
Speaker 2: And he did that not because he believed it, but

986
01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:14,400
Speaker 2: because he knew that America was steeped in Christianity. He

987
01:00:14,480 --> 01:00:17,040
Speaker 2: knew that the people in this nation would be moved

988
01:00:17,120 --> 01:00:21,200
Speaker 2: by the scriptures more than anything else. Later he wrote

989
01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:24,080
Speaker 2: a blasphemous work called The Age of Reason. And when

990
01:00:24,080 --> 01:00:26,120
Speaker 2: he wrote The Age of Reason, he was there was

991
01:00:26,160 --> 01:00:30,880
Speaker 2: probably six other people founding followers included like Elias Budineou

992
01:00:30,920 --> 01:00:34,600
Speaker 2: who wrote responses to that, and Elias Budinoh, a founding father,

993
01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:39,120
Speaker 2: actually wrote the Age of Revelation and he wrote that

994
01:00:39,600 --> 01:00:43,880
Speaker 2: as a response to the Age of Reason. And matter

995
01:00:43,920 --> 01:00:47,000
Speaker 2: of fact, Thomas Pain was so despised after he wrote

996
01:00:47,040 --> 01:00:49,080
Speaker 2: that they couldn't even find a place to bury him.

997
01:00:49,120 --> 01:00:51,480
Speaker 2: There's a very interesting book called The Trouble with Tom

998
01:00:51,600 --> 01:00:54,800
Speaker 2: Strange after life Thomas Pain. He couldn't find a cemetery

999
01:00:54,840 --> 01:00:56,680
Speaker 2: that would bury him because of the way he spoke

1000
01:00:56,720 --> 01:01:00,840
Speaker 2: against Christianity, and so he was very on his own farm.

1001
01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:02,840
Speaker 2: And then a guy named William Cobbatt dug up his

1002
01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:04,919
Speaker 2: boat to put him on display everywhere. And then Spike

1003
01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:06,640
Speaker 2: took his hand. This is a hand that wrote Tom

1004
01:01:06,760 --> 01:01:10,000
Speaker 2: and said somebody took pieces of his hair, his skull,

1005
01:01:10,280 --> 01:01:14,640
Speaker 2: even his brain. And Thomas Pain's remains are just scattered everywhere.

1006
01:01:14,680 --> 01:01:18,760
Speaker 2: You can't find them anymore. And that's because of what

1007
01:01:19,040 --> 01:01:24,040
Speaker 2: happened to him and how he somewhat attacked Christianity. During

1008
01:01:24,160 --> 01:01:28,400
Speaker 2: his lifetime. He was not well respected. And when you

1009
01:01:28,520 --> 01:01:33,240
Speaker 2: come to George Washington's farewell address, Washington and Payne had

1010
01:01:33,280 --> 01:01:35,800
Speaker 2: a huge falling out, and he said, of all the

1011
01:01:35,880 --> 01:01:40,600
Speaker 2: dispositions which ensure political prosperity for land, religion and morality

1012
01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:43,960
Speaker 2: are indispensable supports. He said, in vain, would that man

1013
01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:47,880
Speaker 2: claim the tribute of patriotism? Who would seek to subvert them?

1014
01:01:48,320 --> 01:01:51,560
Speaker 2: And so I think he was addressing that to Thomas Pain,

1015
01:01:52,120 --> 01:01:55,920
Speaker 2: because he understood Benjamin Franklin told Pain. He said when

1016
01:01:55,960 --> 01:01:58,200
Speaker 2: Pain showed up his book The Age of Reason, and

1017
01:01:59,120 --> 01:02:01,080
Speaker 2: Franklin was not what I would call it Christian.

1018
01:02:01,480 --> 01:02:01,840
Speaker 8: It was not.

1019
01:02:02,360 --> 01:02:04,120
Speaker 2: I don't think he was a deist like many people

1020
01:02:04,200 --> 01:02:07,360
Speaker 2: claim either, because he called for prayer, and he said this,

1021
01:02:07,560 --> 01:02:10,600
Speaker 2: He said, of all the longer I lived, more convincing cruse,

1022
01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:13,480
Speaker 2: I see that God intervened in the affairs of man.

1023
01:02:13,880 --> 01:02:16,440
Speaker 2: And then that call for prairie quoted fourteen passages of

1024
01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:19,920
Speaker 2: Scripture extemporaneously. He was very familiar with the Bible. I

1025
01:02:19,960 --> 01:02:21,960
Speaker 2: still wouldn't call him a Christian, and he didn't call

1026
01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:25,840
Speaker 2: himself a Christian, but he called for prayer. And when

1027
01:02:25,880 --> 01:02:28,600
Speaker 2: Thomas Payne showed him his book, he said, you ought

1028
01:02:28,640 --> 01:02:32,000
Speaker 2: to burn that before anyone else reads it, because he

1029
01:02:32,160 --> 01:02:36,320
Speaker 2: understood the value of Christianity and the American ethos. And

1030
01:02:36,640 --> 01:02:41,080
Speaker 2: so America was greatly influenced by Christianity. But now people

1031
01:02:41,160 --> 01:02:43,640
Speaker 2: think well of separation of church and state, and they

1032
01:02:43,680 --> 01:02:46,680
Speaker 2: don't even realize where that phrase came from. They attributed

1033
01:02:46,800 --> 01:02:50,360
Speaker 2: to either the Constitution or to Thomas Jefferson. And it

1034
01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:52,280
Speaker 2: didn't start with either one of them. It started with

1035
01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:55,720
Speaker 2: Roger Williams. Roger Williams was a Patriot pastor at the

1036
01:02:55,800 --> 01:02:58,960
Speaker 2: sixteen thirty second the seventeenth century. He was kicked out

1037
01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:02,480
Speaker 2: of Massachusetts for religious beliefs and they were going to

1038
01:03:02,520 --> 01:03:03,960
Speaker 2: send the actually they were going to send him back

1039
01:03:03,960 --> 01:03:07,680
Speaker 2: to England, where he has certainly been imprisoned for his beliefs.

1040
01:03:08,200 --> 01:03:12,360
Speaker 2: He escaped northward with the help of the Native Americans,

1041
01:03:12,400 --> 01:03:14,640
Speaker 2: and he's the founder of Providence, Rhode Island, which was

1042
01:03:14,680 --> 01:03:17,560
Speaker 2: founder of religious liberty. And he wrote a work called

1043
01:03:17,600 --> 01:03:20,680
Speaker 2: The Bloody Tenet of Persecution, and in that he drew

1044
01:03:20,760 --> 01:03:25,480
Speaker 2: from Isaiah chapter five and where it talks about the

1045
01:03:26,280 --> 01:03:29,200
Speaker 2: vineyard or the domestic grades and then the wild grapes

1046
01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:32,560
Speaker 2: and having a hedge in between them. And he said,

1047
01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:36,840
Speaker 2: the domestic grapes or the vineyard was the church, the

1048
01:03:36,960 --> 01:03:39,680
Speaker 2: wild grapes was the world, or maybe the government. And

1049
01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:42,360
Speaker 2: he said that head is a wall of separation. And

1050
01:03:42,440 --> 01:03:44,600
Speaker 2: so he drew that metaphor of a wall of separation

1051
01:03:44,720 --> 01:03:47,600
Speaker 2: of church and state from Isaiah chapter five. That went

1052
01:03:47,680 --> 01:03:50,320
Speaker 2: on down through Locke. Two people call him a death

1053
01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:54,280
Speaker 2: He wrote two huge works on the defense of Christianity.

1054
01:03:54,360 --> 01:03:57,720
Speaker 2: He was not a Deist. And then so even so

1055
01:03:58,160 --> 01:04:01,240
Speaker 2: Locke and Moniscue, Black Cille, they were all Christians. And

1056
01:04:01,960 --> 01:04:06,520
Speaker 2: then Thomas Jefferson pulled from that when John Leland came

1057
01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:11,440
Speaker 2: to see him, and John Leland had spoken with James

1058
01:04:11,520 --> 01:04:14,120
Speaker 2: Madison because Leland was anti federalist because there was no

1059
01:04:14,200 --> 01:04:17,560
Speaker 2: Bill of Rights, and he told Leland he couldn't support him,

1060
01:04:17,560 --> 01:04:19,920
Speaker 2: and he was from Virginia. Virginia was not going to

1061
01:04:20,000 --> 01:04:23,040
Speaker 2: elect Madison to the ratifying committee. Patrick Henry was an

1062
01:04:23,040 --> 01:04:26,720
Speaker 2: anti federalist. George Mason was an anti federalist. Edmund ran Off,

1063
01:04:26,760 --> 01:04:30,600
Speaker 2: the government governor, was anti federalist. And so Madison, I said,

1064
01:04:30,720 --> 01:04:32,720
Speaker 2: left the capital, which was New York City at the

1065
01:04:32,760 --> 01:04:38,320
Speaker 2: time came and solicited Pastor John Leland's support, and Leland

1066
01:04:38,400 --> 01:04:40,320
Speaker 2: said to him, he said, we have to have a

1067
01:04:40,360 --> 01:04:42,640
Speaker 2: bill of rights, which Leland was not disposed to do

1068
01:04:42,720 --> 01:04:45,440
Speaker 2: at the time. Leland promised that if he won, he'd

1069
01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:48,400
Speaker 2: work on a bill of rights. Mathison endorsed him, and

1070
01:04:48,640 --> 01:04:50,720
Speaker 2: that's the only reason he won a seat on the

1071
01:04:50,840 --> 01:04:53,600
Speaker 2: ratifying committee. If he had not gotten on the ratifying committee,

1072
01:04:53,600 --> 01:04:56,200
Speaker 2: he would not have been able to shepherd the constitution

1073
01:04:57,120 --> 01:04:59,840
Speaker 2: through ratification, and we wouldn't have our constitution.

1074
01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:00,720
Speaker 1: So are you are you?

1075
01:05:01,040 --> 01:05:01,160
Speaker 2: Do you?

1076
01:05:01,680 --> 01:05:03,320
Speaker 1: Do you have all this written down? Are you just

1077
01:05:03,680 --> 01:05:05,360
Speaker 1: doing this all off the top of your head? Are

1078
01:05:05,400 --> 01:05:07,480
Speaker 1: you read like like I?

1079
01:05:07,640 --> 01:05:10,040
Speaker 2: Steady? Friends? So?

1080
01:05:10,280 --> 01:05:13,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think at the very least I have no

1081
01:05:13,680 --> 01:05:16,360
Speaker 1: idea you know how this and and I love the

1082
01:05:16,400 --> 01:05:19,439
Speaker 1: title of it though the Charlie Kirk American Heritage Act.

1083
01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:23,000
Speaker 1: At the at the very least, you are going to,

1084
01:05:23,760 --> 01:05:27,760
Speaker 1: I think, have a the cause of debate to happen

1085
01:05:27,960 --> 01:05:32,760
Speaker 1: in the state of Ohio as it regards our Yeah,

1086
01:05:32,880 --> 01:05:36,000
Speaker 1: and I think I think everyone is going to wind

1087
01:05:36,080 --> 01:05:39,720
Speaker 1: up benefiting from that because I think I don't I

1088
01:05:39,760 --> 01:05:43,360
Speaker 1: don't think there's anything wrong with kids in school today,

1089
01:05:43,920 --> 01:05:47,160
Speaker 1: making a connection from you know, why why we have

1090
01:05:47,320 --> 01:05:51,040
Speaker 1: certain laws in place today. Why we talk about the constitution,

1091
01:05:51,240 --> 01:05:54,160
Speaker 1: what's in the constitution, we talk about the Declaration of Independence,

1092
01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:56,320
Speaker 1: why it's written the way it is, uh, you know,

1093
01:05:56,480 --> 01:06:00,520
Speaker 1: the you know they talk about, uh, the thing is

1094
01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:03,560
Speaker 1: all the references to the Creator and everything else, and

1095
01:06:04,160 --> 01:06:07,800
Speaker 1: it makes it. It makes that connection. So if that debate,

1096
01:06:08,120 --> 01:06:10,720
Speaker 1: if all this does is cause this debate to take

1097
01:06:10,800 --> 01:06:13,920
Speaker 1: place in the state of Ohio, I think most of

1098
01:06:13,960 --> 01:06:15,400
Speaker 1: the people are going to be better off in the

1099
01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:16,280
Speaker 1: long run because of that.

1100
01:06:17,880 --> 01:06:20,920
Speaker 2: I agree, And we just want teachers to be We're

1101
01:06:20,960 --> 01:06:23,240
Speaker 2: not requiring teachers to teach any of this, but I

1102
01:06:23,360 --> 01:06:26,160
Speaker 2: do know I had one superintendent told me it was

1103
01:06:26,200 --> 01:06:29,480
Speaker 2: illegal to teach the history because that's a separation of

1104
01:06:29,560 --> 01:06:30,160
Speaker 2: church and the state.

1105
01:06:32,280 --> 01:06:34,520
Speaker 1: Now, you know, I'll tell you. I'll tell you that.

1106
01:06:34,560 --> 01:06:37,080
Speaker 1: And we've only got about a minute left here. But anecdotally,

1107
01:06:37,600 --> 01:06:40,240
Speaker 1: when when my kid was in uh, I don't know,

1108
01:06:40,480 --> 01:06:43,800
Speaker 1: sixth seventh grade, he had his history book sitting on

1109
01:06:43,880 --> 01:06:46,200
Speaker 1: the kitchen table one night and I started paging through

1110
01:06:46,240 --> 01:06:50,240
Speaker 1: this history book and there was a chapter on on

1111
01:06:50,640 --> 01:06:54,400
Speaker 1: on September eleventh, and literally there was I think a

1112
01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:57,040
Speaker 1: page and a half of what happened on September eleventh,

1113
01:06:57,600 --> 01:07:01,160
Speaker 1: and you know, it talked about, you know, how how

1114
01:07:01,360 --> 01:07:06,040
Speaker 1: it was, you know, jihadis, Muslims jahadas who attacked the

1115
01:07:06,160 --> 01:07:09,120
Speaker 1: United States. And then for the next I don't know,

1116
01:07:09,240 --> 01:07:12,920
Speaker 1: five six, seven, eight nine pages, it was all about Islam,

1117
01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:17,520
Speaker 1: all about Muslims, about all about how wonderful the religion

1118
01:07:17,600 --> 01:07:19,680
Speaker 1: really is, and we shouldn't they pull up poorly and

1119
01:07:19,760 --> 01:07:23,080
Speaker 1: it was so you know, don't tell me that this

1120
01:07:23,200 --> 01:07:25,440
Speaker 1: kind of stuff doesn't make it into the to the

1121
01:07:25,600 --> 01:07:28,160
Speaker 1: history books and the education of our kids. But Gary, click,

1122
01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:31,720
Speaker 1: we got a run, man. I mean, that went unbelievably fast.

1123
01:07:31,800 --> 01:07:34,959
Speaker 1: And thanks for the history lesson tonight and a whole

1124
01:07:34,960 --> 01:07:36,720
Speaker 1: bunch of other I wanted to run by it. But

1125
01:07:37,240 --> 01:07:38,840
Speaker 1: keep up the great work up there, and we'll talk

1126

Speaker 1: for the for the final hour, where do I want

1139
01:08:22,479 --> 01:08:25,840
Speaker 1: to start there? The big debate going on in Virginia tonight.

1140
01:08:25,920 --> 01:08:29,160
Speaker 1: We and we had one here in Cincinnati between Aft

1141
01:08:29,200 --> 01:08:32,960
Speaker 1: tab Purval and Corey Bowman as they are both running

1142
01:08:33,000 --> 01:08:36,719
Speaker 1: for mayor. Obviously aftab is the mayor now he's running

1143
01:08:36,760 --> 01:08:40,400
Speaker 1: for reelection, and I'm reading just some of the some

1144
01:08:40,520 --> 01:08:42,639
Speaker 1: of the reviews that have been posted on social media,

1145
01:08:42,840 --> 01:08:44,160
Speaker 1: and it looks like it was a good night for

1146
01:08:44,240 --> 01:08:46,080
Speaker 1: Corey Bowman. So we may or may not call in.

1147
01:08:46,200 --> 01:08:50,360
Speaker 1: We'll we'll see what happens there. But the other debate

1148
01:08:51,320 --> 01:08:54,160
Speaker 1: is happening in Virginia the governor for that state, between

1149
01:08:54,439 --> 01:08:59,800
Speaker 1: Abigail Spamberger and win some Earl Sears, who I think

1150
01:08:59,880 --> 01:09:02,679
Speaker 1: is just terrific. Here's a little piece of that debate

1151
01:09:02,800 --> 01:09:06,479
Speaker 1: when she was asked about I think Joe am I right?

1152
01:09:06,640 --> 01:09:09,560
Speaker 1: Is this the cut about the the the men in

1153
01:09:10,000 --> 01:09:13,280
Speaker 1: women's locker rooms and so forth. All right, let's yeah,

1154
01:09:13,360 --> 01:09:16,080
Speaker 1: this is this is how this sounded. Hit that cut.

1155
01:09:17,160 --> 01:09:20,600
Speaker 10: So again, the question was, should transgender girls who are

1156
01:09:20,640 --> 01:09:24,200
Speaker 10: biological males be allowed to use girls' bathrooms and play

1157
01:09:24,240 --> 01:09:26,840
Speaker 10: on girls sports teams in K through twelve?

1158
01:09:27,240 --> 01:09:29,320
Speaker 1: You have fifteen seconds to clarify.

1159
01:09:31,280 --> 01:09:35,879
Speaker 11: In cases across Virginia. I think it's incumbent upon parents

1160
01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:40,320
Speaker 11: and educators and administrators in each local community to make

1161
01:09:40,479 --> 01:09:42,000
Speaker 11: decisions locally.

1162
01:09:42,160 --> 01:09:43,160
Speaker 1: That's what this is about.

1163
01:09:44,439 --> 01:09:45,280
Speaker 11: There should never be.

1164
01:09:46,840 --> 01:09:49,680
Speaker 1: In locker rooms. We finally have her saying that, but

1165
01:09:49,840 --> 01:09:51,840
Speaker 1: you voted for that series.

1166
01:09:58,040 --> 01:09:59,960
Speaker 10: This is miss Spanberger's time. Have a follow up QUI

1167
01:10:00,280 --> 01:10:03,680
Speaker 10: for Miss Spamburger, would you rescind the Young and Administration

1168
01:10:03,880 --> 01:10:07,800
Speaker 10: policy requiring boys and girls to use bathrooms aligning with

1169
01:10:07,880 --> 01:10:09,160
Speaker 10: their biological sex?

1170
01:10:09,439 --> 01:10:10,400
Speaker 1: You have thirty seconds.

1171
01:10:10,800 --> 01:10:14,640
Speaker 11: My priority would be to ensure that local communities, importantly,

1172
01:10:14,880 --> 01:10:19,519
Speaker 11: parents and teachers, educators are able to work together to

1173
01:10:19,760 --> 01:10:24,880
Speaker 11: meet the unique needs of each school in each community girls.

1174
01:10:24,920 --> 01:10:27,360
Speaker 11: And that is important. And I say that as a

1175
01:10:27,439 --> 01:10:31,040
Speaker 11: mother of three daughters in Virginia public schools exactly, and

1176
01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:34,960
Speaker 11: as someone who used to investigate crimes against children. The

1177
01:10:35,080 --> 01:10:37,840
Speaker 11: way that we keep our children safe is by ensuring

1178
01:10:37,880 --> 01:10:41,919
Speaker 11: they are safe in schools, which includes funding law enforcement

1179
01:10:41,960 --> 01:10:42,759
Speaker 11: and public safety.

1180
01:10:43,320 --> 01:10:47,639
Speaker 10: But miss Svanberger, the question was should the young would

1181
01:10:47,760 --> 01:10:52,639
Speaker 10: you rescind the youngin administration policy requiring boys and girls

1182
01:10:52,680 --> 01:10:56,320
Speaker 10: to use bathrooms aligning with their biological sex? You have

1183
01:10:56,439 --> 01:10:58,479
Speaker 10: fifteen seconds to clarify that question.

1184
01:10:58,880 --> 01:11:02,400
Speaker 11: Yes, and my answer is that in each local community,

1185
01:11:02,840 --> 01:11:06,759
Speaker 11: decisions should be made between parents and educators and teachers

1186
01:11:07,560 --> 01:11:11,920
Speaker 11: in each community. It shouldn't be dictated viral politicians.

1187
01:11:13,200 --> 01:11:15,040
Speaker 1: You know, if you're listening to me and you're in

1188
01:11:15,200 --> 01:11:19,360
Speaker 1: Virginia right now, or you vote in Virginia, if you

1189
01:11:19,520 --> 01:11:24,760
Speaker 1: vote for Spanberger, you're you're a fool, You're an idiot. Yeah,

1190
01:11:24,800 --> 01:11:27,679
Speaker 1: I said before. I played a cut from her before

1191
01:11:27,720 --> 01:11:30,120
Speaker 1: when she was out on the campaign trail and she

1192
01:11:30,320 --> 01:11:34,360
Speaker 1: was asked a question about this, and she was talking about, well,

1193
01:11:34,439 --> 01:11:38,479
Speaker 1: the Virginia law, say is this is this? No, you're

1194
01:11:38,560 --> 01:11:42,000
Speaker 1: asked about what is your position? How do you feel

1195
01:11:42,040 --> 01:11:45,200
Speaker 1: about this? What will you do? And then she goes

1196
01:11:45,240 --> 01:11:48,000
Speaker 1: on to talk about communities and parents and meeting the

1197
01:11:48,120 --> 01:11:50,519
Speaker 1: needs and all that and all that mumbo jumbo. No,

1198
01:11:51,560 --> 01:11:55,679
Speaker 1: as governor, as a leader, you have to be someone

1199
01:11:55,720 --> 01:11:58,800
Speaker 1: who steps up, someone who puts yourself out there. You

1200
01:11:58,920 --> 01:12:00,840
Speaker 1: have to say I believe in this, I believe in that,

1201
01:12:01,040 --> 01:12:04,080
Speaker 1: I will do this, I will do that, and she

1202
01:12:04,280 --> 01:12:08,720
Speaker 1: can't do it. The term I used before when I

1203
01:12:08,800 --> 01:12:11,280
Speaker 1: played that SoundBite, it was a couple of weeks ago,

1204
01:12:12,600 --> 01:12:16,240
Speaker 1: was I was talking about Michelle Malcolm and when she

1205
01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:18,439
Speaker 1: used to write columns all the time, she coined the

1206
01:12:18,479 --> 01:12:22,160
Speaker 1: phrase crap weasel. And I want you to think about

1207
01:12:22,200 --> 01:12:26,240
Speaker 1: that when you listen to her or any politician speak

1208
01:12:26,320 --> 01:12:31,080
Speaker 1: the way she's speaking. And God bless winsome seers. She's

1209
01:12:31,120 --> 01:12:34,120
Speaker 1: standing about five feet away saying no, that's not the question.

1210
01:12:35,160 --> 01:12:38,960
Speaker 1: And these idiots who are running the debate, they should

1211
01:12:39,000 --> 01:12:41,920
Speaker 1: have let they should have let that exchange take place

1212
01:12:43,200 --> 01:12:48,160
Speaker 1: instead of acting like prison guards saying you have thirty seconds,

1213
01:12:48,200 --> 01:12:50,280
Speaker 1: you have fifteen seconds. I'm going to ring my little bell.

1214
01:12:52,720 --> 01:12:55,120
Speaker 1: I swear to these people. They have no idea how

1215
01:12:55,160 --> 01:12:59,439
Speaker 1: to do a good debate. But she's a crap weasel. Well,

1216
01:12:59,520 --> 01:13:02,040
Speaker 1: let's go to Reagan independence Greg, what's going on tonight?

1217
01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:05,960
Speaker 1: Seven hundred ww Hey, Dan, how you doing? I'm good? Greg?

1218
01:13:06,040 --> 01:13:10,080
Speaker 7: What you got have you heard any feedback on the aftamp?

1219
01:13:10,560 --> 01:13:13,240
Speaker 7: Evil Corey Bowman debate I have.

1220
01:13:13,400 --> 01:13:17,040
Speaker 1: I've just read a couple of little things on social media.

1221
01:13:17,200 --> 01:13:18,640
Speaker 1: Looks like it might have been a good night for

1222
01:13:18,760 --> 01:13:22,920
Speaker 1: Corey Bowman. I messaged him earlier tonight and I told

1223
01:13:23,000 --> 01:13:24,920
Speaker 1: him he is welcome to call in to give us

1224
01:13:24,960 --> 01:13:29,200
Speaker 1: a recap of the debate, at least from his perspective.

1225
01:13:29,640 --> 01:13:31,200
Speaker 1: So we'll see what happens to that.

1226
01:13:32,360 --> 01:13:35,639
Speaker 7: Why can't five, nine, twelve or nineteen televises? Why don't

1227
01:13:35,640 --> 01:13:37,640
Speaker 7: we have to go on YouTube television?

1228
01:13:38,040 --> 01:13:41,679
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, that's a good question. It seems

1229
01:13:41,720 --> 01:13:45,720
Speaker 1: to me that, look, it's been especially since it has

1230
01:13:45,840 --> 01:13:49,240
Speaker 1: been what I want to say, in nineteen seventy two

1231
01:13:49,439 --> 01:13:52,479
Speaker 1: or seventy six, since we've had a Republican mayor. This

1232
01:13:52,640 --> 01:13:54,400
Speaker 1: is the first time I think in the last three

1233
01:13:54,479 --> 01:13:58,040
Speaker 1: or four election cycles that we've even had a Republican

1234
01:13:58,120 --> 01:14:01,040
Speaker 1: running for mayor in the city of that So it

1235
01:14:01,120 --> 01:14:02,720
Speaker 1: seems to me like it like it's kind of a

1236
01:14:02,760 --> 01:14:03,200
Speaker 1: big deal.

1237
01:14:04,120 --> 01:14:05,120
Speaker 4: I think you're gonna win.

1238
01:14:06,880 --> 01:14:07,080
Speaker 8: I do.

1239
01:14:08,200 --> 01:14:10,240
Speaker 1: I think that would be the best thing for Cincinnati.

1240
01:14:10,960 --> 01:14:12,479
Speaker 1: I know, I think it would be the best thing

1241
01:14:12,560 --> 01:14:16,120
Speaker 1: to uh to get. I can't think, I can't think

1242
01:14:16,240 --> 01:14:20,479
Speaker 1: of a legitimate reason why any of the current city

1243
01:14:20,520 --> 01:14:23,960
Speaker 1: council members ought to be re elected. They ought to

1244
01:14:24,000 --> 01:14:25,880
Speaker 1: get get rid of them all and get and get

1245
01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:28,640
Speaker 1: to get nine new members or eight new members or

1246
01:14:28,640 --> 01:14:31,120
Speaker 1: whatever it is. Nine I think nine new members of

1247
01:14:31,200 --> 01:14:34,880
Speaker 1: council in there. Get it. Get them out, because uh,

1248
01:14:35,479 --> 01:14:38,120
Speaker 1: these you know, these council members that are in there now,

1249
01:14:39,680 --> 01:14:41,599
Speaker 1: I can't think of a good reason to keep any

1250
01:14:41,600 --> 01:14:41,800
Speaker 1: of them.

1251
01:14:42,439 --> 01:14:42,479
Speaker 9: No.

1252
01:14:43,560 --> 01:14:46,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, the Republicans a chance to run the city.

1253
01:14:46,120 --> 01:14:49,719
Speaker 7: Come on, we've had Democrats for too long.

1254
01:14:51,520 --> 01:14:54,479
Speaker 1: And we're we see how that's? How's that working out? Greg?

1255
01:14:54,520 --> 01:14:57,640
Speaker 1: I appreciate the call man. All right, there you go,

1256
01:14:57,760 --> 01:15:01,439
Speaker 1: that was that was Greg, good stuff right there. Let

1257
01:15:01,479 --> 01:15:08,080
Speaker 1: me let me here's a Trump was having a an

1258
01:15:08,120 --> 01:15:11,599
Speaker 1: event at the White House yesterday and he was talking

1259
01:15:11,600 --> 01:15:18,000
Speaker 1: about Antifa, and so the the the standard line from

1260
01:15:18,040 --> 01:15:22,160
Speaker 1: the left and the left leaning media is that Antifa

1261
01:15:22,240 --> 01:15:24,519
Speaker 1: doesn't even really exist, that it's just kind of a

1262
01:15:25,040 --> 01:15:28,280
Speaker 1: you know, an amorphous thing out there, and you know,

1263
01:15:28,600 --> 01:15:32,000
Speaker 1: it's just so, you know, an idiot right wingers just

1264
01:15:32,200 --> 01:15:36,639
Speaker 1: making stuff up. But he says he's going to designate

1265
01:15:36,640 --> 01:15:40,560
Speaker 1: Antifa as a foreign terrorist organization. And they did this

1266
01:15:40,720 --> 01:15:44,720
Speaker 1: roundtable at the at the White House. So you had

1267
01:15:45,000 --> 01:15:50,360
Speaker 1: all these different individuals there who have been, you know,

1268
01:15:50,640 --> 01:15:54,080
Speaker 1: have dealt with Antifa, and they talked about the money,

1269
01:15:54,840 --> 01:15:58,200
Speaker 1: where the money goes, and there's the there's a lot

1270
01:15:58,240 --> 01:16:02,360
Speaker 1: of money changed for organization that doesn't it doesn't exist.

1271
01:16:02,439 --> 01:16:04,960
Speaker 1: There's a lot of money changing cans, and there's a

1272
01:16:05,040 --> 01:16:09,880
Speaker 1: lot of funding of these of these different Antifa groups

1273
01:16:10,360 --> 01:16:14,120
Speaker 1: that is going on. One of the individuals who was

1274
01:16:14,360 --> 01:16:19,519
Speaker 1: at the round table was an independent journalist. Her name

1275
01:16:19,600 --> 01:16:28,479
Speaker 1: is Brandy Cruz, and she has seen the light. She

1276
01:16:29,080 --> 01:16:31,840
Speaker 1: admits that she looked right at President Trump when she

1277
01:16:31,920 --> 01:16:37,080
Speaker 1: said this. She said, I had Trumped arrangement syndrome. And

1278
01:16:37,960 --> 01:16:40,680
Speaker 1: here's how she talked about that. This is one of

1279
01:16:40,760 --> 01:16:43,560
Speaker 1: my favorite sound bites of the day. But this is

1280
01:16:43,680 --> 01:16:48,719
Speaker 1: Brandy Cruz, who has had her share of Antifa coverage

1281
01:16:48,720 --> 01:16:52,240
Speaker 1: an independent journalists, and here's how she laid it out

1282
01:16:52,280 --> 01:16:55,040
Speaker 1: for the Trumpster. Let's hear Joe Waldell. Let's hear cut

1283
01:16:55,160 --> 01:16:55,519
Speaker 1: number three.

1284
01:16:55,600 --> 01:16:59,160
Speaker 12: Please, I'm living proof that you can recover from TDS.

1285
01:16:59,760 --> 01:17:05,320
Speaker 12: I had strong Trump derangement syndrome for probably eight years.

1286
01:17:07,320 --> 01:17:10,320
Speaker 12: It's this is one of the reasons I recovered from it.

1287
01:17:10,360 --> 01:17:12,719
Speaker 12: And by the way, it's much better to not have TDS.

1288
01:17:13,080 --> 01:17:17,040
Speaker 12: I'm happier, I'm healthier, more successful. I even think I

1289
01:17:17,160 --> 01:17:19,920
Speaker 12: got a little more attractive after I got one of

1290
01:17:19,920 --> 01:17:20,759
Speaker 12: my Trump derangements.

1291
01:17:21,200 --> 01:17:22,800
Speaker 7: Yes, you know I watched.

1292
01:17:22,800 --> 01:17:25,920
Speaker 12: I'm a reporter in Seattle, and frankly, I could not

1293
01:17:26,120 --> 01:17:27,320
Speaker 12: care any less what any.

1294
01:17:27,200 --> 01:17:28,439
Speaker 1: Of you have to say about this meeting.

1295
01:17:28,800 --> 01:17:30,479
Speaker 12: Could not care any less. We're not here for you.

1296
01:17:30,640 --> 01:17:32,919
Speaker 12: I'm not here to convince any of you that Antifa

1297
01:17:32,960 --> 01:17:34,920
Speaker 12: is a real thing, because if you have not come

1298
01:17:34,960 --> 01:17:36,720
Speaker 12: to that conclusion by now, you are never going to

1299
01:17:36,760 --> 01:17:38,800
Speaker 12: come to that conclusion because you don't want to see it,

1300
01:17:39,479 --> 01:17:40,920
Speaker 12: and you're gonna go and you're gonna say it's a

1301
01:17:40,960 --> 01:17:45,240
Speaker 12: bunch of right wing conservative influencers who are here spinning

1302
01:17:45,280 --> 01:17:45,639
Speaker 12: a tail.

1303
01:17:46,080 --> 01:17:46,840
Speaker 2: I was one of you.

1304
01:17:47,920 --> 01:17:50,800
Speaker 12: I was a mainstream reporter in Seattle for ten years.

1305
01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:54,800
Speaker 12: I was a TV reporter on the streets doing my job,

1306
01:17:54,960 --> 01:17:58,040
Speaker 12: and I was still assaulted by Antifa. So it's not

1307
01:17:58,160 --> 01:18:00,600
Speaker 12: about being conservative. It's about people who go there and

1308
01:18:00,760 --> 01:18:04,160
Speaker 12: show what they're doing. And when I saw after all

1309
01:18:04,200 --> 01:18:06,800
Speaker 12: those years that the media wouldn't be honest about what

1310
01:18:06,960 --> 01:18:09,920
Speaker 12: was happening, that democratic politicians wouldn't be honest about what

1311
01:18:10,040 --> 01:18:12,400
Speaker 12: was happening. I thought, well, gosh, if they're not being

1312
01:18:12,439 --> 01:18:14,840
Speaker 12: honest about that, maybe they're not being honest about President

1313
01:18:14,920 --> 01:18:18,000
Speaker 12: Trump either. And it opened my mind to just looking

1314
01:18:18,080 --> 01:18:20,240
Speaker 12: at things for what they were. And now I find

1315
01:18:20,280 --> 01:18:21,040
Speaker 12: you quite funny.

1316
01:18:21,080 --> 01:18:22,960
Speaker 1: Actually, no, I'm it's think I.

1317
01:18:22,960 --> 01:18:23,840
Speaker 12: Said, I'm much happier.

1318
01:18:24,800 --> 01:18:25,400
Speaker 2: So there you go.

1319
01:18:27,680 --> 01:18:31,639
Speaker 1: That's that young woman was. She's been in the belly

1320
01:18:31,720 --> 01:18:35,639
Speaker 1: of the beast. She's covered Antifa, she's been assaulted by Antifa.

1321
01:18:36,640 --> 01:18:40,280
Speaker 1: She was a news reporter, she was drinking the kool aid,

1322
01:18:41,600 --> 01:18:45,960
Speaker 1: had full blown trumped arrangements into for eight years, eight years,

1323
01:18:48,120 --> 01:18:51,400
Speaker 1: and she finally saw the truth and she said, if

1324
01:18:51,400 --> 01:18:54,439
Speaker 1: our media is lying about this, what else are they

1325
01:18:54,560 --> 01:19:02,280
Speaker 1: lying about? And she didn't have anyone out there brainwashing her.

1326
01:19:02,960 --> 01:19:07,040
Speaker 1: She came to this conclusion on her own. She used

1327
01:19:07,080 --> 01:19:09,360
Speaker 1: her own brain, her own mind to get around this

1328
01:19:09,439 --> 01:19:12,639
Speaker 1: stuff and get her head around this stuff and figure

1329
01:19:12,680 --> 01:19:16,800
Speaker 1: out what the heck was going on. Now we have

1330
01:19:16,960 --> 01:19:24,120
Speaker 1: the Washington Post, and the Washington Post has admitted that

1331
01:19:24,240 --> 01:19:29,160
Speaker 1: the government is too big and there is plenty of

1332
01:19:29,240 --> 01:19:33,640
Speaker 1: fat that can be cut. The Post again, and they

1333
01:19:33,680 --> 01:19:36,799
Speaker 1: wrote about this, of course on one of my favorite websites.

1334
01:19:37,000 --> 01:19:41,320
Speaker 1: As NewsBusters, the Post once again tackled the ongoing political

1335
01:19:41,400 --> 01:19:46,400
Speaker 1: standoff between the GOP and the Democrats over what they

1336
01:19:46,479 --> 01:19:52,840
Speaker 1: call the Schumer shutdown, surprisingly chastising liberal lawmakers for being

1337
01:19:52,880 --> 01:19:57,839
Speaker 1: stubborn by continually voting down the republican clean continuing resolution.

1338
01:19:59,000 --> 01:20:02,160
Speaker 1: Then came a job dropping admission from the liberal newspaper,

1339
01:20:02,240 --> 01:20:05,200
Speaker 1: the government is too big. There is plenty of fat

1340
01:20:05,280 --> 01:20:09,439
Speaker 1: to cut. Again, this is the Washington Post, but they

1341
01:20:09,520 --> 01:20:12,599
Speaker 1: took it even a step further. If the last week

1342
01:20:12,680 --> 01:20:15,720
Speaker 1: has shown anything it's that the federal bureaucracy performs too

1343
01:20:15,800 --> 01:20:19,960
Speaker 1: many non essential tasks that do not have a direct

1344
01:20:20,040 --> 01:20:26,360
Speaker 1: bearing on the lives of most citizens. I mean, this

1345
01:20:26,520 --> 01:20:33,200
Speaker 1: is this is a eye opening, This is a revelation.

1346
01:20:33,400 --> 01:20:33,760
Speaker 2: This is.

1347
01:20:35,280 --> 01:20:38,760
Speaker 1: The media, at least the Washington Post and this this

1348
01:20:38,920 --> 01:20:41,280
Speaker 1: and the instance you know I have to tell you.

1349
01:20:41,320 --> 01:20:43,400
Speaker 1: I mean, the media is one of the things because

1350
01:20:43,439 --> 01:20:45,719
Speaker 1: it's part of my background that I have talked about

1351
01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:51,479
Speaker 1: continuously for years on this radio stage. And I have

1352
01:20:51,600 --> 01:20:54,040
Speaker 1: seen so much. I've seen so much of it firsthand.

1353
01:20:54,960 --> 01:20:57,360
Speaker 1: I've at least on the TV end of the business,

1354
01:20:59,200 --> 01:21:01,639
Speaker 1: and I see the and I know the way things

1355
01:21:01,680 --> 01:21:05,360
Speaker 1: are written, and I see the bias. I've seen it.

1356
01:21:05,400 --> 01:21:08,160
Speaker 1: I've seen it, I've lived it. I know what it is.

1357
01:21:09,960 --> 01:21:14,639
Speaker 1: And for the editorial board on the Post to come

1358
01:21:14,720 --> 01:21:18,439
Speaker 1: out and admit this, and this comes on the heels

1359
01:21:18,520 --> 01:21:22,680
Speaker 1: of this editorial board admitting that that Obamacare was, that

1360
01:21:22,880 --> 01:21:27,960
Speaker 1: the Affordable Care Act was next never actually affordable. And

1361
01:21:28,120 --> 01:21:32,799
Speaker 1: they went for years carrying water for this guy for years,

1362
01:21:34,280 --> 01:21:37,920
Speaker 1: and it's all coming around. Kurt Slickter wrote a great

1363
01:21:37,960 --> 01:21:42,200
Speaker 1: piece in town Hall talking about how the media He's

1364
01:21:42,280 --> 01:21:48,040
Speaker 1: coming them seeing the media come around as well. He

1365
01:21:48,200 --> 01:21:51,080
Speaker 1: talked about social media, not long ago was a closed

1366
01:21:51,120 --> 01:21:56,519
Speaker 1: system controlled by communist overlords. Capitalists can be worse than

1367
01:21:56,560 --> 01:21:59,479
Speaker 1: communists who conspire with the evil Biden cabal to suppress

1368
01:21:59,520 --> 01:22:03,679
Speaker 1: the speech normal Americans. But that all changed Elon Musk

1369
01:22:04,479 --> 01:22:08,519
Speaker 1: bought Twitter, made it X, lifted the censorship rules its

1370
01:22:08,560 --> 01:22:13,120
Speaker 1: competitors were forced to follow suit. I mean, think about

1371
01:22:13,160 --> 01:22:15,320
Speaker 1: that was that was a huge turning point for this

1372
01:22:15,439 --> 01:22:18,639
Speaker 1: country when Elon Musk went in and bought Twitter, made

1373
01:22:18,680 --> 01:22:24,679
Speaker 1: it and made it become X, and the social media

1374
01:22:24,800 --> 01:22:28,360
Speaker 1: broke the chains of the stranglehold that the Biden administration

1375
01:22:28,479 --> 01:22:32,799
Speaker 1: had placed on it and who remembers the Twitter files

1376
01:22:33,479 --> 01:22:40,040
Speaker 1: all the information came out. Mark Zuckerberg at Facebook talked

1377
01:22:40,040 --> 01:22:44,920
Speaker 1: about how with regularity the Biden administration would force them

1378
01:22:45,000 --> 01:22:48,240
Speaker 1: to suppress things that they didn't like, not things that

1379
01:22:48,320 --> 01:22:52,840
Speaker 1: were untrue, not things that were that were harmful, not

1380
01:22:53,000 --> 01:22:56,360
Speaker 1: things that were propaganda for our enemies. It was simply

1381
01:22:56,479 --> 01:23:01,400
Speaker 1: things that they didn't like. And I talked about that

1382
01:23:02,160 --> 01:23:06,600
Speaker 1: in real time as it was happening. The suppression that

1383
01:23:06,840 --> 01:23:12,240
Speaker 1: that is government suppression of our First Amendment rights. Now

1384
01:23:12,280 --> 01:23:16,200
Speaker 1: he's saying, it's the mainstream media's turn. The regime media

1385
01:23:16,240 --> 01:23:19,000
Speaker 1: is going to change. The first reason is that we're

1386
01:23:19,920 --> 01:23:22,120
Speaker 1: is that we are woke to just how evil it is.

1387
01:23:24,640 --> 01:23:27,080
Speaker 1: He says, there was a time when most Republicans carried

1388
01:23:27,120 --> 01:23:29,400
Speaker 1: what the New York Times or ABC said. They granted

1389
01:23:29,439 --> 01:23:34,120
Speaker 1: those institutions respect, He says, not us, hardcore folks, we

1390
01:23:34,240 --> 01:23:38,439
Speaker 1: always knew exactly what the regime media was. Well, now

1391
01:23:38,560 --> 01:23:42,000
Speaker 1: the truth we've been telling is undeniable. Except for except

1392
01:23:42,000 --> 01:23:46,240
Speaker 1: for the most impotent of the GOP. Republicans treat the

1393
01:23:46,280 --> 01:23:50,920
Speaker 1: mainstream media like what it is our enemy. If they

1394
01:23:51,040 --> 01:23:54,479
Speaker 1: go on face the press with George Snuffalupagus it's to

1395
01:23:54,640 --> 01:23:58,360
Speaker 1: mock the host or hostess and generate viral eclips of

1396
01:23:58,360 --> 01:24:02,840
Speaker 1: their humiliation. And he's talking about CBS has hired Barry

1397
01:24:02,880 --> 01:24:07,720
Speaker 1: Weiss over there. So Kirk Slicker is pointing to a

1398
01:24:07,840 --> 01:24:12,560
Speaker 1: major change that is coming to our national media, and

1399
01:24:12,680 --> 01:24:16,200
Speaker 1: the Washington Post is doing it now. So yes, antifa

1400
01:24:16,280 --> 01:24:19,720
Speaker 1: is a real thing. And people who covered it were

1401
01:24:19,760 --> 01:24:22,120
Speaker 1: at the White House telling Trump all about it. It's

1402
01:24:22,120 --> 01:24:23,800
Speaker 1: eleven twenty five. We got to get to a break.

1403
01:24:24,000 --> 01:24:26,280
Speaker 1: The final segment's coming up. Five one, three, seven four

1404
01:24:26,400 --> 01:24:28,920
Speaker 1: nine seven thousand, what eight hundred the big one if

1405
01:24:28,960 --> 01:24:41,679
Speaker 1: you want to get on board, seven hundred WLW seven

1406
01:24:41,760 --> 01:24:44,920
Speaker 1: hundred WLW eleven thirty eight year old till midnight tonight

1407
01:24:46,040 --> 01:24:49,400
Speaker 1: five one three, seven, nine seven one eight hundred bill

1408
01:24:49,439 --> 01:24:51,320
Speaker 1: of from Westwood is on the line. We'll get the

1409
01:24:51,360 --> 01:24:54,400
Speaker 1: bill in just a moment. Uh, Donald Trump, he's got

1410
01:24:54,479 --> 01:24:57,519
Speaker 1: a physical coming up. How's he feeling about it? Let's

1411
01:24:57,560 --> 01:24:58,479
Speaker 1: hear cut number one.

1412
01:25:01,560 --> 01:25:03,960
Speaker 9: I'm meeting with the troops and I'm also going to

1413
01:25:04,040 --> 01:25:07,479
Speaker 9: do a sort of semi annual physical, which I do

1414
01:25:08,400 --> 01:25:10,360
Speaker 9: and I think I'm in great shape.

1415
01:25:10,400 --> 01:25:11,560
Speaker 1: But I'll let you know.

1416
01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:16,120
Speaker 9: But no, I have no difficulty thus far is there

1417
01:25:16,160 --> 01:25:21,320
Speaker 9: would around here, no difficulty. Physically, I feel very good. Mentally,

1418
01:25:21,360 --> 01:25:23,840
Speaker 9: I feel very good. You know, I did about six

1419
01:25:23,920 --> 01:25:26,400
Speaker 9: seven months ago. I do physicals. I like to when

1420
01:25:26,400 --> 01:25:30,759
Speaker 9: I'm around, I like to check always early, always be earliest,

1421
01:25:30,760 --> 01:25:34,599
Speaker 9: a lesson for a lot of people. But I also

1422
01:25:34,720 --> 01:25:38,400
Speaker 9: did a cognitive exam, which is always very risky because

1423
01:25:38,400 --> 01:25:40,320
Speaker 9: if I didn't do well, you'd be the first to

1424
01:25:40,840 --> 01:25:43,439
Speaker 9: be blaring it. And I had a perfect score, and

1425
01:25:43,560 --> 01:25:46,080
Speaker 9: one of the doctors said he's almost never seen a

1426
01:25:46,120 --> 01:25:49,160
Speaker 9: perfect score. I had a perfect a perfect score.

1427
01:25:49,280 --> 01:25:53,439
Speaker 1: I got the highest score, and that made me feel good.

1428
01:25:54,240 --> 01:25:57,560
Speaker 1: There you go, perfect cognitive exam, going to meet with

1429
01:25:57,600 --> 01:26:03,679
Speaker 1: the troops. I guess at Walter reed and the Trumpster

1430
01:26:04,400 --> 01:26:07,800
Speaker 1: is the healthiest president we've ever had. And then during

1431
01:26:07,880 --> 01:26:10,880
Speaker 1: the same session, he was asked about maybe getting a

1432
01:26:10,960 --> 01:26:13,560
Speaker 1: Nobel Peace Prize. And here's what he said about that.

1433
01:26:13,680 --> 01:26:14,599
Speaker 1: Let's hear cut number two.

1434
01:26:15,120 --> 01:26:19,000
Speaker 9: I know this that nobody in history has solved eight

1435
01:26:19,120 --> 01:26:23,559
Speaker 9: wars in a period of nine months. And I've stopped

1436
01:26:23,600 --> 01:26:26,120
Speaker 9: eight wars, so that's never happened before.

1437
01:26:26,200 --> 01:26:28,000
Speaker 1: But they'll have to do what they do. Whatever they

1438
01:26:28,080 --> 01:26:29,639
Speaker 1: do is fine.

1439
01:26:30,280 --> 01:26:30,720
Speaker 2: I know this.

1440
01:26:31,040 --> 01:26:32,719
Speaker 9: I didn't do it for that. I did it because

1441
01:26:32,760 --> 01:26:33,280
Speaker 9: I saved a.

1442
01:26:33,280 --> 01:26:33,880
Speaker 1: Lot of lives.

1443
01:26:34,360 --> 01:26:36,439
Speaker 9: And that's the thing that bothers me so much about

1444
01:26:36,439 --> 01:26:39,720
Speaker 9: the Russia Ukraine. Seven thousand people are dying a week,

1445
01:26:40,760 --> 01:26:44,799
Speaker 9: the young soldiers. They're almost all soldiers of Ukraine and Russia.

1446
01:26:44,880 --> 01:26:48,120
Speaker 9: So in theory it doesn't affect us. No, but it's

1447
01:26:48,160 --> 01:26:51,160
Speaker 9: a terrible thing. And we'll get that solved too. But

1448
01:26:51,720 --> 01:26:54,439
Speaker 9: nobody has ever done eight wars. Nobody's done eight wars

1449
01:26:54,520 --> 01:26:57,280
Speaker 9: in thirty years, let alone nine months.

1450
01:26:57,600 --> 01:27:01,320
Speaker 1: So there you go, and I saw a piece of me.

1451
01:27:01,880 --> 01:27:02,640
Speaker 2: What I do with that?

1452
01:27:03,600 --> 01:27:08,160
Speaker 1: All the people that that that criticized Trump, they're they're

1453
01:27:08,240 --> 01:27:11,000
Speaker 1: nowhere to be found. Now let's go to Bill and

1454
01:27:11,040 --> 01:27:13,639
Speaker 1: west Wood and see what he's got for us tonight. Bill,

1455
01:27:13,680 --> 01:27:14,599
Speaker 1: how's it going tonight?

1456
01:27:15,640 --> 01:27:17,840
Speaker 5: It's going well, young man. Good to hear you back

1457
01:27:17,920 --> 01:27:19,439
Speaker 5: on the midweek crisis.

1458
01:27:19,720 --> 01:27:23,080
Speaker 1: I'm glad to be here. Good to hear your voice too.

1459
01:27:24,800 --> 01:27:29,320
Speaker 5: Thank you, young man. Went to the mayoral debate tied

1460
01:27:29,439 --> 01:27:30,400
Speaker 5: over an xavier.

1461
01:27:31,880 --> 01:27:35,880
Speaker 1: You did over the Cintas Center, Yes, sir, how to

1462
01:27:35,960 --> 01:27:38,000
Speaker 1: have that? Tell me how how they have the Cintas

1463
01:27:38,080 --> 01:27:38,760
Speaker 1: Center set up?

1464
01:27:40,200 --> 01:27:40,360
Speaker 3: Uh?

1465
01:27:40,560 --> 01:27:40,760
Speaker 8: Well?

1466
01:27:41,160 --> 01:27:43,960
Speaker 5: As you go down the steps, you go into the

1467
01:27:45,720 --> 01:27:47,200
Speaker 5: big banquet room down there.

1468
01:27:47,320 --> 01:27:47,920
Speaker 13: They had a.

1469
01:27:49,640 --> 01:27:53,600
Speaker 5: A t level stage at the on the floor they

1470
01:27:53,720 --> 01:27:55,760
Speaker 5: had the questioners.

1471
01:27:56,479 --> 01:27:56,599
Speaker 8: Uh.

1472
01:27:56,800 --> 01:28:01,080
Speaker 5: The moderator was up on the DAAs with both candidates

1473
01:28:01,920 --> 01:28:06,840
Speaker 5: and you know, calling on each one of the questioners

1474
01:28:06,920 --> 01:28:09,599
Speaker 5: to hand to each one of the candidates or questions.

1475
01:28:11,920 --> 01:28:15,639
Speaker 5: It went pretty well. The questions weren't, you know, biased

1476
01:28:15,680 --> 01:28:17,679
Speaker 5: to one side or the other, at least I didn't

1477
01:28:17,720 --> 01:28:24,479
Speaker 5: think so. The mayor took a few cheap shots at

1478
01:28:25,240 --> 01:28:31,439
Speaker 5: Corey's brother, Vice President Vance, and anybody who supports making

1479
01:28:31,520 --> 01:28:38,000
Speaker 5: America great again, and that was kind of sad. While

1480
01:28:38,120 --> 01:28:40,240
Speaker 5: I was sitting there listening to the debate, I was

1481
01:28:40,280 --> 01:28:45,640
Speaker 5: scrolling down through Facebook on the Channel nine page, the

1482
01:28:45,760 --> 01:28:49,120
Speaker 5: thread that the thread that had the debate on it,

1483
01:28:49,240 --> 01:28:52,200
Speaker 5: there were people calling maga people racists, et cetera.

1484
01:28:55,160 --> 01:28:58,160
Speaker 1: And that was that And how was that part of

1485
01:28:58,520 --> 01:28:58,960
Speaker 1: the debate.

1486
01:29:00,479 --> 01:29:01,759
Speaker 3: Well, that wasn't.

1487
01:29:01,920 --> 01:29:05,680
Speaker 8: But it goes to it goes to the fact that

1488
01:29:05,880 --> 01:29:11,559
Speaker 8: the Democrats are using uh scare tactics against minorities, thinking

1489
01:29:11,680 --> 01:29:17,960
Speaker 8: that Abuement administration would be using racial profiling against oh.

1490
01:29:18,000 --> 01:29:21,080
Speaker 1: I see, I see because he because he wants he

1491
01:29:21,200 --> 01:29:24,840
Speaker 1: wants to have proactive policing. He wants police to actually

1492
01:29:25,160 --> 01:29:29,160
Speaker 1: take criminals off the streets. He wants, you know, he wants, uh,

1493
01:29:29,439 --> 01:29:33,400
Speaker 1: the judges and the prosecutors and the courts to to

1494
01:29:33,520 --> 01:29:37,160
Speaker 1: do their part when it comes to keeping the city safe.

1495
01:29:37,160 --> 01:29:40,080
Speaker 1: You know, it's one It's one thing to have police

1496
01:29:40,120 --> 01:29:42,600
Speaker 1: officers out there who go out and arrest people. But

1497
01:29:42,720 --> 01:29:46,799
Speaker 1: then it's another thing, too, uh, to have the courts

1498
01:29:46,920 --> 01:29:48,920
Speaker 1: that we have now and the judges that we have

1499
01:29:49,120 --> 01:29:52,280
Speaker 1: now who continually let these people go. You know, I

1500
01:29:52,600 --> 01:29:55,639
Speaker 1: get so upset when I hear about someone who commits

1501
01:29:55,680 --> 01:29:58,160
Speaker 1: a heinous crime and then you find out, well, this

1502
01:29:58,280 --> 01:30:02,080
Speaker 1: person's been arrested thirty times before, or forty times or

1503
01:30:02,160 --> 01:30:05,160
Speaker 1: ninety times or whatever the number is. That sort of

1504
01:30:05,280 --> 01:30:06,120
Speaker 1: thing has to stop.

1505
01:30:07,640 --> 01:30:09,800
Speaker 5: Well, this is true, and I have read on the

1506
01:30:10,000 --> 01:30:16,040
Speaker 5: Signal ninety nine page where Mayor Parival, while he was

1507
01:30:16,120 --> 01:30:20,360
Speaker 5: Clerk of Courts, had threatened the Hamilton County judges with

1508
01:30:20,520 --> 01:30:27,000
Speaker 5: being primary if they do any kind of bill requirements

1509
01:30:27,240 --> 01:30:33,080
Speaker 5: or holding them in the jail. So I have no

1510
01:30:33,240 --> 01:30:36,120
Speaker 5: reason to disbelieve this because it's been backed up by

1511
01:30:36,360 --> 01:30:41,280
Speaker 5: what I've been told by several other people, and that's pathetic.

1512
01:30:41,400 --> 01:30:44,679
Speaker 5: I mean, you're the clerk of courts, you have higher

1513
01:30:44,760 --> 01:30:50,160
Speaker 5: political aspirations, and you're telling your judges, you know, your

1514
01:30:50,400 --> 01:30:53,439
Speaker 5: fellow the Democrats, not to put people in jail who

1515
01:30:53,960 --> 01:30:54,960
Speaker 5: deserve to be in jail.

1516
01:30:55,120 --> 01:30:55,280
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1517
01:30:55,400 --> 01:30:58,719
Speaker 1: Well, you know there was a voter or no confidence

1518
01:30:58,800 --> 01:31:03,320
Speaker 1: by the Cincinnati f OP again, you know, on this

1519
01:31:03,760 --> 01:31:06,599
Speaker 1: on this mayor and the he was not endorsed by

1520
01:31:06,720 --> 01:31:12,200
Speaker 1: the by the fire the fire union. Yeah, the fire

1521
01:31:12,320 --> 01:31:15,680
Speaker 1: and that was not the department, but the union, the firefighters.

1522
01:31:16,600 --> 01:31:19,639
Speaker 1: So yeah. So, I mean, aftab's got a lot of problems.

1523
01:31:19,840 --> 01:31:24,200
Speaker 1: And you know I saw on that we have not

1524
01:31:24,400 --> 01:31:27,599
Speaker 1: had a we haven't even had a Republican run from

1525
01:31:27,600 --> 01:31:31,759
Speaker 1: mayor since two thousand and nine. So if if Corey

1526
01:31:31,800 --> 01:31:36,320
Speaker 1: Bowman makes some serious inroads here, we'll see what happens.

1527
01:31:36,400 --> 01:31:40,000
Speaker 1: But Bill, I appreciate the fact that you actually went

1528
01:31:40,080 --> 01:31:42,640
Speaker 1: to the Centas Center tonight, and I thank you for

1529
01:31:42,720 --> 01:31:44,960
Speaker 1: that first hand report on the on the debate.

1530
01:31:46,240 --> 01:31:48,240
Speaker 5: Well, I hope it was worthy of your show.

1531
01:31:48,280 --> 01:31:48,640
Speaker 2: Young man.

1532
01:31:48,720 --> 01:31:51,240
Speaker 1: You have Philly dam You did a fine job. Bill,

1533
01:31:51,320 --> 01:31:53,840
Speaker 1: thank you very much for that. Let's I got a

1534
01:31:53,920 --> 01:31:56,920
Speaker 1: couple more soundbites. I want to get to here one is, uh,

1535
01:31:57,439 --> 01:32:02,439
Speaker 1: we were talking about Antifa earlier and Aaron Burnett on

1536
01:32:02,680 --> 01:32:07,679
Speaker 1: CNN and a lot of the left, the leaning mainstream media,

1537
01:32:08,080 --> 01:32:11,719
Speaker 1: they continue to carry water for this organization that Trump

1538
01:32:11,800 --> 01:32:15,080
Speaker 1: wants to declare a terrorist organization. And this is what

1539
01:32:15,240 --> 01:32:16,920
Speaker 1: this sounds like. Let's hear cut number five.

1540
01:32:21,439 --> 01:32:23,479
Speaker 13: In fact, it's not even like far right groups like

1541
01:32:23,520 --> 01:32:27,040
Speaker 13: the Proud Boys and Oathkeepers, which have had national leaders.

1542
01:32:27,160 --> 01:32:30,439
Speaker 13: Unlike Antifa, there is no organized hierarchy to the group,

1543
01:32:30,680 --> 01:32:33,320
Speaker 13: and according to the Center for Strategic and International Studies,

1544
01:32:33,640 --> 01:32:37,080
Speaker 13: compared to right wing extremists, Antifa linked violence is rare

1545
01:32:37,120 --> 01:32:40,280
Speaker 13: and limited, but that has not stopped Trump from blaming

1546
01:32:40,360 --> 01:32:43,160
Speaker 13: Antifa for just about every act of violence in America

1547
01:32:43,200 --> 01:32:46,240
Speaker 13: since he first got into office. In fact, it's not

1548
01:32:46,320 --> 01:32:48,000
Speaker 13: even like far right groups like the Product.

1549
01:32:48,120 --> 01:32:53,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's CNN and you know, look a little

1550
01:32:53,840 --> 01:32:57,920
Speaker 1: violence by Antifa, no big deal, right.

1551
01:32:59,640 --> 01:32:59,840
Speaker 8: They have.

1552
01:33:00,000 --> 01:33:09,800
Speaker 1: I mean, these people are just really okay. It was

1553
01:33:10,000 --> 01:33:13,840
Speaker 1: it was like it was when trend to Argua was

1554
01:33:14,200 --> 01:33:20,920
Speaker 1: taking over apartment buildings in in Aurora, Colorado. Remember that

1555
01:33:21,040 --> 01:33:25,160
Speaker 1: interview with Dadie Vance. But if mister Vice President, it's

1556
01:33:25,200 --> 01:33:29,280
Speaker 1: only it's only a couple well, he wasn't vice president then,

1557
01:33:29,280 --> 01:33:32,200
Speaker 1: I believe I was still during the campaign. It's only

1558
01:33:32,280 --> 01:33:35,200
Speaker 1: a couple of buildings, and he said, do you hear yourself, Well,

1559
01:33:35,320 --> 01:33:38,439
Speaker 1: it was Martha Radditt's do you hear yourself? A couple

1560
01:33:38,520 --> 01:33:41,960
Speaker 1: of buildings. We're supposed to sit there and accept that.

1561
01:33:42,720 --> 01:33:45,960
Speaker 1: We're supposed to sit there and accept it. In Chicago

1562
01:33:47,120 --> 01:33:50,080
Speaker 1: that the mayor has said there are no go zones

1563
01:33:50,600 --> 01:33:55,800
Speaker 1: in Chicago for ice or other law enforcement because you

1564
01:33:56,120 --> 01:33:58,160
Speaker 1: just want to let the criminals run wild. We can't

1565
01:33:58,200 --> 01:34:02,200
Speaker 1: have that kind of stuff. Many of the lawmakers who

1566
01:34:02,240 --> 01:34:04,599
Speaker 1: demanded a seats firing Gaza over the past two years

1567
01:34:04,640 --> 01:34:09,920
Speaker 1: of fallen silent now that Trump has the the deal

1568
01:34:10,479 --> 01:34:14,160
Speaker 1: at least the beginning phases of the deal working between

1569
01:34:14,520 --> 01:34:22,599
Speaker 1: Israel and Hamas and the Daily Caller went and Wren

1570
01:34:22,800 --> 01:34:25,000
Speaker 1: did a did a rundown on a bunch of these individuals.

1571
01:34:26,080 --> 01:34:33,040
Speaker 1: Democrat Illinois RepU Delia Ramirez, who in March joined colleagues

1572
01:34:33,040 --> 01:34:35,559
Speaker 1: outside the Capitol call for a seatsfire and an end

1573
01:34:35,600 --> 01:34:42,400
Speaker 1: to Netta, whose campaign ethnically cleanse Gaza, has been silent

1574
01:34:43,479 --> 01:34:47,880
Speaker 1: on the on the matter, and she's called for the

1575
01:34:48,320 --> 01:34:53,760
Speaker 1: for the return of the of the hostages, and let

1576
01:34:53,800 --> 01:34:59,400
Speaker 1: me see here's Promila Jaya Paul issued a statement on Tuesday,

1577
01:34:59,479 --> 01:35:02,559
Speaker 1: marking the two year anniversary of the October seventh Hamas attack,

1578
01:35:03,920 --> 01:35:07,160
Speaker 1: and she writes, into two years since we've seen that

1579
01:35:07,320 --> 01:35:11,000
Speaker 1: revenge never brings peace, and war only brings more war,

1580
01:35:11,680 --> 01:35:15,560
Speaker 1: the more war, referring to what she called the genocide

1581
01:35:15,600 --> 01:35:18,360
Speaker 1: of the Palestinian people in Gaza by the Israeli government.

1582
01:35:19,760 --> 01:35:21,960
Speaker 1: She ended her statement with a call for the immediate

1583
01:35:21,960 --> 01:35:26,160
Speaker 1: and permanent ceasefire, but has not commented since Trump announced

1584
01:35:26,160 --> 01:35:32,000
Speaker 1: a deal on Wednesday or spoken publicly about it. Let's see,

1585
01:35:32,120 --> 01:35:35,160
Speaker 1: President Trump needs to quit his bombastic rhetoric and work

1586
01:35:35,240 --> 01:35:39,720
Speaker 1: to return Israel and Hamasta the negotiating table, restore the ceasefire,

1587
01:35:39,800 --> 01:35:44,639
Speaker 1: so violence will cease, said Democrat Minnesota rep. Betty McCollum.

1588
01:35:46,760 --> 01:35:49,600
Speaker 1: So since the deil has been announced, she has not

1589
01:35:49,760 --> 01:35:56,720
Speaker 1: said anything. Okayzio Quartets has not said anything since the

1590
01:35:58,000 --> 01:36:02,360
Speaker 1: the announcement came out. So you've got all these got

1591
01:36:02,439 --> 01:36:13,000
Speaker 1: ilhan Omar, who has repeatedly criticized this administration and it

1592
01:36:13,080 --> 01:36:15,560
Speaker 1: has called for a cease fire and an end to

1593
01:36:15,600 --> 01:36:20,240
Speaker 1: the genocide. She hasn't had anything to say. So now

1594
01:36:20,360 --> 01:36:23,920
Speaker 1: all these loud mouse get out there and they don't

1595
01:36:24,040 --> 01:36:28,040
Speaker 1: really care about the issue. They simply want to have

1596
01:36:28,240 --> 01:36:32,200
Speaker 1: something that that they can use to beat up Trump with.

1597
01:36:33,160 --> 01:36:37,800
Speaker 1: Let's see here this woman in California, this Assembly. I

1598
01:36:37,840 --> 01:36:40,120
Speaker 1: guess she's in the Assembly. She's a lawmaker out there.

1599
01:36:42,000 --> 01:36:46,479
Speaker 1: Her name is Katie Porter, and she is Look, you

1600
01:36:46,680 --> 01:36:49,320
Speaker 1: cannot look at your social media feed without seeing videos

1601
01:36:49,360 --> 01:36:54,000
Speaker 1: of her. There's a video of her where she is

1602
01:36:54,600 --> 01:36:56,880
Speaker 1: I guess she's doing a zoom call or she's doing

1603
01:36:56,960 --> 01:37:00,400
Speaker 1: a podcast, and she's got her laptop over in there,

1604
01:37:01,080 --> 01:37:06,519
Speaker 1: and then someone wanders into her shot over her left

1605
01:37:06,560 --> 01:37:11,040
Speaker 1: shoulder and she immediately just lights that person up, dropping

1606
01:37:11,080 --> 01:37:13,360
Speaker 1: the F bomb. And speaking of dropping the F bomb,

1607
01:37:14,560 --> 01:37:17,880
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris is out there on her book tour and

1608
01:37:18,160 --> 01:37:20,880
Speaker 1: she has taken to a dropping the F bomb when

1609
01:37:20,920 --> 01:37:23,479
Speaker 1: it comes to talking about Trump and when it comes

1610
01:37:23,520 --> 01:37:26,240
Speaker 1: to talking about the people, and she's calling them mf

1611
01:37:26,360 --> 01:37:29,880
Speaker 1: errs and all this other stuff. That is that really

1612
01:37:29,920 --> 01:37:34,880
Speaker 1: what we want from our politicians? But here's this Katie Porter.

1613
01:37:35,880 --> 01:37:38,400
Speaker 1: This is another video. There there's another. There's another one

1614
01:37:38,439 --> 01:37:41,960
Speaker 1: where she's a longer one where she's sitting with a

1615
01:37:42,120 --> 01:37:45,120
Speaker 1: local news reporter out there and the news that this

1616
01:37:45,240 --> 01:37:49,040
Speaker 1: woman is just asking routine questions, following up on some

1617
01:37:49,200 --> 01:37:52,160
Speaker 1: of the questions, and she can't have it, and she

1618
01:37:52,320 --> 01:37:54,679
Speaker 1: actually stops the interview and winds up walking away.

1619
01:37:55,240 --> 01:37:55,360
Speaker 2: Uh.

1620
01:37:55,479 --> 01:37:59,400
Speaker 1: This is an older clip though from I think it's

1621
01:37:59,479 --> 01:38:03,960
Speaker 1: actually from the second time that Trump got elected, and

1622
01:38:05,120 --> 01:38:07,880
Speaker 1: here she is talking to, you know, yucking it up

1623
01:38:07,920 --> 01:38:14,120
Speaker 1: with local news reporters. And this to me just is

1624
01:38:14,360 --> 01:38:17,439
Speaker 1: it just turns my stomach to hear a woman talk

1625
01:38:17,560 --> 01:38:18,920
Speaker 1: like this. Let's hear cut number four.

1626
01:38:19,720 --> 01:38:21,840
Speaker 14: So on election night I was with I went to

1627
01:38:21,880 --> 01:38:24,679
Speaker 14: pick up my daughter from water polo practice and she's twelve,

1628
01:38:24,880 --> 01:38:26,679
Speaker 14: and she got in the car and she was crying,

1629
01:38:27,200 --> 01:38:28,040
Speaker 14: and I said, did.

1630
01:38:27,960 --> 01:38:30,040
Speaker 1: Someone punch you? That waterpool's a rough sport.

1631
01:38:30,360 --> 01:38:31,400
Speaker 14: I was like, did someone hit you?

1632
01:38:31,520 --> 01:38:31,960
Speaker 2: To the coach?

1633
01:38:32,080 --> 01:38:36,479
Speaker 14: Yell at you what happened? And she said, Mom, Trump won,

1634
01:38:36,800 --> 01:38:40,080
Speaker 14: Trump's gonna win, And what if I get raped and

1635
01:38:40,200 --> 01:38:42,600
Speaker 14: I need to have an abortion. This is from a

1636
01:38:42,680 --> 01:38:45,120
Speaker 14: twelve year old, my twelve year old daughter. And so

1637
01:38:45,200 --> 01:38:48,000
Speaker 14: it was really a reminder of how scary this time

1638
01:38:48,160 --> 01:38:51,320
Speaker 14: is for people and how important it is for Democrats

1639
01:38:51,400 --> 01:38:53,519
Speaker 14: to have strategies, both at the state level and the

1640
01:38:53,560 --> 01:38:56,200
Speaker 14: federal level to make sure that we can continue to

1641
01:38:56,240 --> 01:38:57,160
Speaker 14: protect people's rights.

1642
01:38:57,439 --> 01:39:01,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you're going to get jump on the back

1643
01:39:01,680 --> 01:39:05,559
Speaker 1: of your twelve year old and call for abortion rights,

1644
01:39:07,760 --> 01:39:12,320
Speaker 1: That to me is just that, that is sick and

1645
01:39:12,479 --> 01:39:15,240
Speaker 1: you're really you're just a You're just a pig. If

1646
01:39:15,320 --> 01:39:18,439
Speaker 1: you do that, I mean, you really are. That is

1647
01:39:18,600 --> 01:39:23,479
Speaker 1: sick and disgusting. And how many mothers out there have

1648
01:39:23,680 --> 01:39:27,920
Speaker 1: their twelve year old daughters? First of all, I don't think.

1649
01:39:27,960 --> 01:39:31,000
Speaker 1: I don't think something like this really happened. But you're

1650
01:39:31,040 --> 01:39:35,719
Speaker 1: gonna you're gonna say, just in order to get votes,

1651
01:39:36,560 --> 01:39:39,679
Speaker 1: You're gonna say, my twelve year old daughter talked about

1652
01:39:39,720 --> 01:39:43,040
Speaker 1: what if I get raped and I can't have an abortion? Belinda,

Speaker 1: want to talk Joe, was she talking to you all right? Well,

1661
01:40:20,880 --> 01:40:22,679

01:40:22,720 --> 01:40:25,560
Speaker 1: But Belinda, maybe next time. That's it for me. I
