The go war that's going on right 51 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 2: now going to have a profound impact on food prices 52 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 2: and global starvation has been commented on regularly by the 53 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 2: plundits out there because just so much fertilizer is manufactured 54 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 2: in the area and must go through the strade of 55 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 2: horn Moves, which of course is currently on mostly shut down. 56 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 2: So I'm thinking it could get worse. We'll get AFPs 57 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 2: stodded into a common affordability across the board that at 58 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 2: seven point thirty, coming up at eight oh five and 59 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 2: empower you some of our Tom Haggittorn is going to 60 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 2: be diving into the update on socialist effort to change America. Hmm, 61 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 2: he said, Well, over one hundred years ago, socialist thinkers 62 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 2: developed an extensive plan aimed at gaining control over the 63 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 2: major institutions of Western society. Well, they sure succeeded with 64 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 2: our education institutions, haven't they. That frightening. Frightening statistic from 65 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 2: the poll that was done on young people say the 66 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 2: twenty to twenty nine year olds embracing socialism and have 67 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 2: a positive perception of socialism relative to capitalism. That's a 68 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 2: growing phenomenon. Of course, there's your education system in doctrinating 69 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 2: our children into something that is obviously a train wreck 70 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 2: of a political philosophy. See the history of the world. Anyway, 71 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 2: said a central component of the strategy education system, spanning 72 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 2: from kindergarten all the way through graduate professional schools, to 73 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 2: use education as a primary tool to shape future generations 74 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 2: and influence societal norms and values. Yep, it's an indoctrination 75 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 2: camp without the free flow and for the free exercise 76 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 2: and exchange of ideas. You are stuck with this sort 77 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 2: of It's like global warming. The experts say this is fact, 78 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 2: and you cannot refute it. Well, that's pretty much what 79 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 2: you get in K through twelve and you weren't also 80 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:54,280 Speaker 2: college education. No, socialism is better capitalism evil er. They 81 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 2: never really back up one step, do they and explain 82 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 2: where the money generated to fund all these socialist efforts 83 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 2: and all three distribution and feeding people creator to grave? 84 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 2: Where did that money come from? 85 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: Right? 86 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:11,040 Speaker 2: Capitalism? Yeah, and amid all the things that we are 87 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 2: involved with right now, we the United States of America 88 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 2: has been going on that like for a long long time. 89 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,600 Speaker 2: I mean, our relationship with the NATO countries for example, 90 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 2: you know, on full display with this whole military problem. 91 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 2: You know, Donald Trump and his mandate that they put 92 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 2: pony up five percent of their GDP to defend themselves 93 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 2: because those evil capitalists in the United States of America 94 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 2: took on the role of being the police department for 95 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 2: all of Western Europe for the past number of decades, 96 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 2: relieving them of their obligations so they can pursue their 97 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 2: socialist agenda. Why because we paid for their military we did, 98 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 2: and say we went about sanctions tariffs rather you know, 99 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 2: oh my god, they have an inflationary Okay, fine, but 100 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 2: you know, when you look at the playing field that 101 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 2: Trump was trying to flatten out with his tariff agenda. 102 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 1: You see that. 103 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 2: You know, we were paying a lot of money in 104 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:12,720 Speaker 2: tariffs for our imports to their countries, while they weren't 105 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 2: struggling to dig in with the same sort of reciprocal tariffs. 106 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 2: That is, our money benefiting them, so they can go 107 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 2: on their married socialists way and make it look like 108 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 2: it works. And I move over to Cube again. I 109 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 2: commented on this yesterday. You know, oh my god, Cuba 110 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 2: is a nightmare of a country. It's starvation, poverty, and 111 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:34,559 Speaker 2: of course a lot of corruption. It's a proof that 112 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 2: that system of government, call it socialism, call it communism, 113 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,600 Speaker 2: doesn't work. Well, that's because you sanctioned them and cut 114 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 2: them off. Well, the rest of the world's free to 115 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 2: trade with them if they want. We have our own policies, 116 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,599 Speaker 2: our own tactics, and we do not have to trade 117 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,159 Speaker 2: with Cuba. And we can say things to our fellow 118 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 2: our allies that you know what, we don't want you 119 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 2: to trade with that common country. Either you can choose to, 120 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 2: you know, go along with us, or you can go 121 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 2: along with them. Much to distegranted with Cubans, most of 122 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 2: the world and our economic partners tend to side with 123 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 2: the United States. Why evil capitalism makes them more money? Hm, 124 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 2: Margaret Thatcher, you know, eventually the problem of socialism and 125 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 2: you run out of other people's money. The other people's 126 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 2: money that you run out of are people who engage 127 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 2: in capitalism and make fat bank off of it. God 128 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 2: love them for it. Thank you for the salaries that 129 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 2: you've provided me, you evil capitalists, over the years, because 130 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 2: I don't know how to start a business. And you know, again, 131 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 2: it's all built on this perception that it's okay, it's justified, 132 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 2: moral appropriate to take the property, slash money of some 133 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 2: other person merely because they will happen to be a 134 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 2: little bit more successful at least if you've used success 135 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 2: in terms of monetary gain. Just because I think about 136 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 2: this in terms of the death text, just because you die, 137 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 2: they can come in, the government can come in and 138 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 2: take as much as they want. How does one justify that, Well, 139 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 2: they're dead, uh huh. And we have concepts of private 140 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 2: ownership and private property and wealth accumulation. It is the 141 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 2: estates money and as a living person, you can make 142 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 2: plans to where that money is going to be distributed. 143 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 2: After you pass. That's called a will right. You can 144 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 2: put it in a trust. It's your right. And yet 145 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 2: for whatever reason, it's just it's not even an argument 146 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 2: is raised about the immorality of just the government coming 147 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 2: in and grabbing a sizable chunk just because well, pick 148 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 2: an arbitrary number, just because it exceeds whatever fill in 149 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 2: the black arbitrary number our elected officials have decided they 150 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 2: get to take more over. Oh, if you if you 151 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 2: have an estate more than x, like a million dollars, 152 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 2: then we're coming in and taking seventy five percent of it. 153 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 2: Why present a moral justification for that, and don't tell me, well, 154 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 2: it's because we need more revenue and govern because we 155 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:04,319 Speaker 2: need to fund these government programs, which another road I 156 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 2: could go down and probably spend four hours talking about 157 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 2: how effective of these programs been. How much effort have 158 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 2: you placed toward ending or to preventing fraud, waste abuse 159 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 2: in those programs which you think are so important to 160 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 2: the American people. You've taken the money from us over 161 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 2: our objections perhaps, and you haven't done a wits worth 162 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 2: of effort in order to see that that money gets 163 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 2: a better return on investment. Like starting out with the 164 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,599 Speaker 2: idea that you can't engage in fraud, wasted abuse, and 165 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:35,680 Speaker 2: putting up impediments to be having that happen. So no 166 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 2: moral justification to taking the money, and then no ability 167 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 2: to defend the programs because we all know that they 168 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 2: have not been successful. See the past number of decades, 169 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 2: going back to let's say Great Society programs. You know, 170 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 2: they're all supposed to end poverty as we know it. Yeah, 171 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 2: it's going to happen. No, no, no, it hasn't. Trillions 172 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:56,680 Speaker 2: of dollars spent, and apparently the problem has only gotten worse. 173 00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 2: The number of people on social welfare has only increased. Well, 174 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 2: going back to socialism, they view that as success. More 175 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 2: people giving up on the idea that they're on their 176 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 2: own in this world, that they need to make their 177 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 2: way on their own. They can just hook themselves up 178 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,320 Speaker 2: to the biblical court of government. Everything is going to 179 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 2: be fine. And once they're there, we've got them for good. 180 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 2: Oh we've created another little government dependent socialist person who 181 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 2: can stand up and argue, I suppose without any factual 182 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 2: predicate or ethical predicate, that's just aoka to take other 183 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:36,479 Speaker 2: people's money so they can live without having to participate, 184 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:42,680 Speaker 2: and I'll even interject able bodied individuals of working age 185 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 2: going back to work requirements for certain social welfare programs. 186 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 2: Isn't that the right and appropriate thing to do, since 187 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,439 Speaker 2: the justification for those programs was based on a temporary 188 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,559 Speaker 2: need for assistance to get them over the hill until 189 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 2: they start participating in a capitalist environment and earning for themselves, 190 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 2: and along with earning for themselves, earning the right to 191 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 2: complain about overtaxation and the quality of services government has 192 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 2: provided in return for their confiscatory taxation.

And quite often they get notified because 229 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 2: that person who cut their ankle monitor off and started 230 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 2: running them up committed a crime, and some tastes murdered someone. 231 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 2: Rest in peace, Patrick Herringer.

Okay, 235 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 2: And going back to my comments and sort of a 236 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 2: stream of consciousness tear about socialism social welfare programs. Here's one. 237 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 2: You know, we all know what's going on in Minnesota. Yeah, 238 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 2: leering centers and among others, massive, massive billions and billions 239 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 2: of dollars a fraud. But how about Rob Undersander, who 240 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 2: in the hell is Rob Understander? Well, he was testifying 241 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:52,840 Speaker 2: yesterday in front of Minnesota lawmakers about SNAP benefits. Rob 242 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 2: happens to be a retired engineer and he volunteers to 243 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 2: help seniors navigate government benefits systems. He knows the system. 244 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 2: He's also quite wealthy, but he doesn't draw a huge income. 245 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 2: I think he is a retired engineer, so you know, 246 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 2: when you have built up massive assets behind the scenes, 247 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 2: your income is based upon what you draw out of 248 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 2: your retirement savings. So he doesn't really draw that much out. 249 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 2: And SNAP benefits in Minnesota are based on income only, 250 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 2: not assets. So what did he do? He applied for 251 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 2: SNAP benefits, recognizing the glaring hole there is in the system. 252 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 2: Approved within weeks, he said. He collected thousands of dollars 253 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 2: of SNAP benefits over more than a year, which he 254 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 2: did donate the charity. I strongly support SNAP benefits for 255 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 2: truly needy individuals, he said. But when we have nearly 256 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 2: one in seven Americans receiving food support and the wealthiest 257 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 2: nation on Earth with historically low unemployment rates, something is wrong. Yeah, 258 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 2: there is something wrong. One might call the current eligibility 259 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 2: rules fraud buy design, you said, And given the current 260 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 2: climate of fraud and abuse of taxpayer funded benefits of Minnesota, 261 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 2: I'm hoping that there will be a new bipartisan effort 262 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 2: to reduce and eliminate both. Shouldn't this be the ultimate 263 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 2: by parties an effort Democrats can curl about how this 264 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 2: will save social welfare programs, and of course Republicans can 265 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 2: talk about how they've gotten rid of fraud, waste, and abuse. 266 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 2: So anyway, so they had a Minnesota House Public Safety 267 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 2: Committee hearing yesterday on this. I guess he was testifying there. 268 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 2: The new bill that they were talking about to tighten 269 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 2: SNAP benefits would tighten eligibility rules for food stamps by 270 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 2: requiring stricter income and asset verification. So listen, if you've 271 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 2: got a huge pile of money behind the scenes, and 272 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 2: you could certainly live off that and feed yourself on that, 273 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 2: then we're going to consider that before we start approving 274 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 2: SNAP benefits. Isn't that right? Isn't that the way it 275 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 2: should be? Minnesota distributed nearly seven hundred and twenty five 276 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 2: million benefits in twenty twenty, like, well, that's not much, 277 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 2: you know what it is? 278 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 3: Now? 279 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:58,400 Speaker 2: Oh, in twenty twenty one, it jumped all the way 280 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 2: to two billion dollars one year, a one hundred and 281 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 2: seventy four percent, increase America First policy and sued Health 282 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 2: Harvest campaign director Matchment talking about this article with Fox 283 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 2: News or this issue to Fox News, snap is meant 284 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 2: to help needy Minnesota and put food on the table, 285 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 2: not to subsidize people who already have significant financial resources, 286 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 2: of course, stating the obvious, is it not unacceptable that 287 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 2: the system in Minnesota and elsewhere? I'm positive allows millionaires 288 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 2: and as the AFPI guy mentioned, and lottery winners to 289 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 2: qualify for taxpayer funded benefits, calling it a fundamentally broken system. Well, 290 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 2: let's fix that one. Can we start there. Let's rally 291 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 2: around the flag, Let's rally around bi partisanship. Let's stop fraud, waste, 292 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 2: and abuse. Let's tighten the programs up. Oh that's right. 293 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 2: We are thirty nine trillion dollars in debt here in 294 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 2: the United States of America five twenty six right now. 295 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 2: Feel free to give you a call if you'd like. 296 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:07,719 Speaker 2: I got local stories to talk about if you'd rather 297 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 2: go that way, but five on three seven four nine 298 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:11,399 Speaker 2: fifty five hundred, eight hundred eight two three talk o 299 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 2: count five fifty.

Sounds sounds like you're on a little 311 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 4: bit of a tear this morning. 312 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:46,400 Speaker 2: I kind of I woke up from a trance after 313 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 2: my first rent in the first segment of the programs 314 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 2: like where in the hell did that come from? I 315 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 2: had no idea which stretch I was going to go, 316 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:53,160 Speaker 2: and I opened the show up this morning. I hope 317 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 2: it made sense. 318 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 4: You know, well, I understand. I understand where you're coming from, 319 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:03,199 Speaker 4: and it is a it. Here's a big issue with 320 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:08,720 Speaker 4: people being lazy and not wanting to create their own wealth. 321 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,879 Speaker 4: We were given the ability to create wealth. You have 322 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 4: you have a way of making money supporting yourself supporting 323 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 4: your family. 324 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 2: Well, isn't that isn't that an ethical point from which 325 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 2: everyone should spring. First off, foremost, this is something I 326 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:26,680 Speaker 2: brought you. It resart you in this way. I was 327 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 2: raised this way. You got to take care of yourself. 328 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 2: You know, if there's one thing you owe the world, 329 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:32,679 Speaker 2: the best thing you can do is at least be 330 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 2: able to take care of yourself. You know, pick up 331 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 2: after yourself, clean up after yourself, feed yourself, clothe yourself, 332 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 2: and at least shelter yourself. And if you are able 333 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:42,679 Speaker 2: to do that most people I think are in some 334 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,439 Speaker 2: to some degree, then nobody has to take care of you. 335 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 1: There's a thought, how about how about that? 336 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 4: Wouldn't that be nice if we didn't have to have 337 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 4: politicians telling us how we have to feel sorry for 338 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,199 Speaker 4: other people and we should take on the burden of 339 00:18:58,280 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 4: responsibility for them. 340 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 2: Well, we may have a moral obligation to do that. 341 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 2: Sometimes that obligation springs from religion. Sometimes it springs from 342 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 2: simple reality that some people are never going to be 343 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 2: able to care for themselves. We have people that have 344 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:15,879 Speaker 2: cognitive struggles, physical struggles. Those people perhaps are worthy of 345 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 2: some assistance. And you know, but as for everybody else. 346 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 2: The left is great to tap it into covetousness, greed, 347 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,919 Speaker 2: and envy. Oh my god, how is it possible that 348 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:32,199 Speaker 2: someone could acquire so much? That's just wrong. Really, it 349 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:34,639 Speaker 2: was their choice. They chose to go that direction. You 350 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:36,719 Speaker 2: chose a different direction. That's why it's beautiful to live 351 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:39,400 Speaker 2: in America. We have the freedom to exercise those choices. 352 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:45,160 Speaker 4: Well, the funny part is is that these same politicians, 353 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:48,199 Speaker 4: it's not a problem that they're the ones acquiring that 354 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 4: much wealth. That's not a problem. So they they have 355 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:56,679 Speaker 4: no issue with their bank accounts swelling and getting up 356 00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 4: into the billions and all that, while they preached to 357 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 4: other people about how, oh they should know you, you 358 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 4: shouldn't you shouldn't feel right having this much money while 359 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 4: other people that you know or in your community or 360 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,920 Speaker 4: whatever are suffering. Well, I don't see you giving all 361 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 4: your money away, right, You're just wanting to give all 362 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 4: of my money away. That's pretty much what it comes 363 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,679 Speaker 4: down to, that is wanting. One of the main difference 364 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 4: between conservatism and liberalism is that conservatism a lot of 365 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 4: people are like, yeah, I want you to take care 366 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 4: of you, and I want you to stop depending on me. 367 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,399 Speaker 4: Now you may need some help, but you need to 368 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 4: be thinking that way. And liberal is like, no, no, no, 369 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 4: if somebody has a lot, they should share, we should 370 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:40,640 Speaker 4: make them share. 371 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 2: And they the proposition, and they spring for the proposition 372 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,439 Speaker 2: that it is wrong as a I guess from from 373 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:49,440 Speaker 2: the spring from the proposition that it is just wrong 374 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 2: that somebody else has been able to make that much money. 375 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 4: They just like, yeah, they say that, but they really 376 00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,359 Speaker 4: don't believe it. And that's the that's the part that 377 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:03,879 Speaker 4: people need recognize. Liberals really don't believe that it's wrong 378 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 4: for a person to acquire that much wealth. They believe 379 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:12,680 Speaker 4: that they can use guilt and envy and greed and 380 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 4: shame people who have that much money to get some 381 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 4: for themselves. All of these programs that are meant to 382 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 4: help other people are all like you brought up already. 383 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:25,719 Speaker 4: They're all fraud with wrought with with fraud. They have 384 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,119 Speaker 4: a lot of fraud too. People get in there and 385 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:29,719 Speaker 4: they see a big pot of money and they oh, 386 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:32,160 Speaker 4: I can get some of this. This isn't about feeling 387 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:35,159 Speaker 4: sorry for other people and trying to get people to 388 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 4: feel ashamed of having too much money. This is about 389 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,440 Speaker 4: an opportunity to steal your money. That's all it is, 390 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 4: stealing your money that you have worked hard for.

I really appreciate 563 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 5: you courage the listeners to do the same. Hey, I'm 564 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 5: still on a rant about Central Committee. 565 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:02,239 Speaker 1: Of the Republican Hill would I know. 566 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 5: I know, I can't get over it, but I did 567 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:09,720 Speaker 5: some homework based on your interview with Robert Sprague, who 568 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 5: is the treasurer, who is Jack Guess that would would 569 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 5: allow him to be everything in state government, which is 570 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 5: really unique that you can do all these jobs. But 571 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 5: if you once you run it, once you get in, 572 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 5: evidently you qualified for everything. He said that the reason 573 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:27,920 Speaker 5: one of the big things that he would change is 574 00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 5: that he would make sure that we would set a 575 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 5: verified citizenship at the time of voter registration, and that 576 00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 5: that's currently a gap. I called Warren County Board of 577 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 5: Elections talk to a gentleman who is the director and 578 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:47,600 Speaker 5: he has been in that position for I think twenty years. 579 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 5: He said, that's absolutely false, that there is a three 580 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,960 Speaker 5: way check at the time of registration. When somebody fills 581 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 5: out that registration card, it goes to the BMV two 582 00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 5: checks at the state level. It was BMV for sure. 583 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 5: I thought maybe he said, like medic Medicaid, Medicare Department 584 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 5: of Health for a state of Ohio, and then it 585 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 5: gets kicked up to the FED. 586 00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 4: And I think it goes to AHHS. 587 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 5: Or somewhere to check that you are an American citizen 588 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:21,320 Speaker 5: before that person gets a voter registration card. And I said, 589 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 5: would you be willing to I encourage him to call 590 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 5: this program and to talk to you all about that 591 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 5: the listening audience. And yeah, I said, it gets very political. 592 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 5: I I have fear of doing that for repercussions now 593 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:40,520 Speaker 5: where repercussions coming down from. 594 00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 1: It's not from the Republican Party. 595 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 5: That's speculation, but politics has our Board of Elections officials 596 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 5: scared to death that to talk about the truth. Now, 597 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 5: my other question about let's let's suppose that I didn't 598 00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 5: get it quite right and there's some gap with the 599 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 5: Sprague pointed out, I don't think there is. Can he 600 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,080 Speaker 5: not walk down all and talk to Frank LeRose? 601 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 1: There you go. 602 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 2: See, I just wanted to conclude your point. We're almost 603 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:08,040 Speaker 2: at a time and I was getting the hairy eyeball 604 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 2: on the admonishment from Joe Strecker.

I 609 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:21,440 Speaker 2: appreciate you keeping your eye on the ball. 610 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:21,720 Speaker 1: Jay. 611 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 2: Clearly we do have some problems here in the state 612 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 2: of Ohio.

Of course, if 641 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,840 Speaker 2: you've gotten your gas tank filled recently, like I did yesterday, 642 00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 2: I had to pay five bucks for premium average price 643 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 2: around town running in it right at three p ninety nine. 644 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 2: You may be able to find a little bit of 645 00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:46,320 Speaker 2: savings depending on where you go. But yes, a significant 646 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,880 Speaker 2: increase in gasoline which is really angering a lot of people. 647 00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 2: Of course, it's driven by the war between the Israeli forces, 648 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:54,880 Speaker 2: United States and iron and the ripple effect of the 649 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:56,440 Speaker 2: closure of the Strait of Horror moves which we all 650 00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 2: know about eight oh five with Tom Hagenhorn's socialist's effort 651 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,279 Speaker 2: to check America's empower you use someone are taking place 652 00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 2: tonight And finally Judge of Politano War and morality. He'll 653 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:10,840 Speaker 2: be on at day thirty and a scathing opinion from 654 00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:14,400 Speaker 2: Judge Nina Politano and something that he well channeling Daniel 655 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:17,280 Speaker 2: Davis yesterday listening to Daniel Davis deep dive on podcasts 656 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:20,840 Speaker 2: talking about the legality of the war. And since Daniel 657 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 2: Davis and many others under the impression this was not 658 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,840 Speaker 2: an eminent threat, so the War Powers Resolution doesn't apply. 659 00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 2: There was no authorization from Congress and of course no 660 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:31,319 Speaker 2: authorization from military force. Because Donald Trump went in very 661 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 2: quickly and stealthily in launching this campaign, not a lot 662 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:37,960 Speaker 2: of discussion ahead of time. So where are we appear 663 00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 2: to be in legal limbo, and of course Judge of 664 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:43,840 Speaker 2: Platano and Daniel Davis both suggesting this is an unlawful war. 665 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 2: You can argue against that, and we can argue all 666 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 2: day long about eminent threat what that might mean to 667 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 2: justify its being under the War Powers Act. But you 668 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 2: still have no resolution. So we seem to be in 669 00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 2: a state of constitutional uncertainty. Is it crisis? 670 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:04,239 Speaker 1: I don't know. 671 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,239 Speaker 2: Feel free to chime in if you like. That's coming 672 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:08,080 Speaker 2: up in the fifty five KC Morning Show and over 673 00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:13,480 Speaker 2: to the well the popularity are lack thereof William Galston 674 00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:15,400 Speaker 2: doing an op ed piece on this, but citing real 675 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 2: clear politics, average polling. They put together multiple polls. Their 676 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:21,640 Speaker 2: polls are taking place all the time, and I know 677 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,480 Speaker 2: general perception of polls is that they're not reliable. But 678 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:26,919 Speaker 2: if you start seeing a trend and a theme upon 679 00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:32,080 Speaker 2: you know, conservative pollsters, liberal pollsters, independent pollsters, they all 680 00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 2: have a bit of a political stripe. So it's that 681 00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:36,160 Speaker 2: John Deice I of skepticism. You paint over any given 682 00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:37,920 Speaker 2: poll depending upon who did it, but you put them 683 00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:40,760 Speaker 2: all together and you get some semblance of maybe reality, 684 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:42,239 Speaker 2: and that's kind of what he's working off off of 685 00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,239 Speaker 2: relying on the real clear politics figures, which show that 686 00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:50,920 Speaker 2: this is not popular. When the war began, he points out, 687 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:53,240 Speaker 2: public support was lower than for any other major conflict 688 00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 2: undertaken in the nearly a century. And since we've now 689 00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 2: entered the fourth week, turning to the polls, initial public 690 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 2: doubts have now moved in sweeping opposition. Survey is conducted 691 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:05,439 Speaker 2: during the third week show that support of the war 692 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:10,640 Speaker 2: falling to an average of thirty nine percent. Apparently, American 693 00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:13,200 Speaker 2: people don't think that the president has clearly explained the 694 00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:16,759 Speaker 2: goals of war. And I'll let you decide whether or 695 00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:19,479 Speaker 2: not an explanation upfront or it would be nice to 696 00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:22,120 Speaker 2: have a very clearly defined definition of what we're trying 697 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:24,320 Speaker 2: to accomplish here, because you know, whether you love or 698 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:26,360 Speaker 2: hate Donald Trump, he is a bit all over the 699 00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:29,040 Speaker 2: board on this one. You know, you've got seventy two hours. 700 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 2: No no, no, I'm going to make it five. No, no, no, 701 00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:34,239 Speaker 2: I'm gonna it's just everywhere I'm talking to the Iranians, 702 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:36,080 Speaker 2: we've got a deal, they've agreed to something, and then 703 00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:37,640 Speaker 2: you hear from the Iranians they say, we never even 704 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:39,120 Speaker 2: talked to him, he can take his deal and shove 705 00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:43,640 Speaker 2: it up as keyster. So I, again going back to 706 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:45,759 Speaker 2: Daniel Davis's perception, say you got to listen to maybe 707 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:50,520 Speaker 2: more foreign news sources try to get that balance. Immediately 708 00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 2: cocked up thought about Bagdad Bob, and I asked him 709 00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:52,960 Speaker 2: about that. 710 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:54,360 Speaker 1: How can we really rely on that? 711 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 2: And that's his sort of well, if you look back, 712 00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,640 Speaker 2: look at everything, look at the conflict and where it is, 713 00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 2: is this rate of horror moves open? The answer is no, 714 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 2: which supports his position that yes, the Iranians oppose a 715 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:07,879 Speaker 2: grave threat for the Strait of Horror moonves, in spite 716 00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:10,040 Speaker 2: of the fact that we've done significant damage to their 717 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:14,319 Speaker 2: missile bases, their air force which really wasn't ever and 718 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:17,440 Speaker 2: of course their navy. Notwithstanding that, there's all kinds of 719 00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,359 Speaker 2: reports about the thousand plus little midget boats they've got 720 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:22,400 Speaker 2: out there, all the different types of minds they still 721 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,520 Speaker 2: have in their possession, and how easy it is to 722 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 2: distribute those also widely reported that they have already put 723 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 2: some of those minds in the Strait of Horror moves 724 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:39,719 Speaker 2: even recently. So the rationale cursory as it was, we 725 00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:42,359 Speaker 2: still here in the middle of this conflict, and as 726 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:44,080 Speaker 2: the conflict enters it's fourth week, I said, as I 727 00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:46,880 Speaker 2: pointed out, thirty nine percent of the Real Politics average 728 00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:50,959 Speaker 2: approve weakening the economy that makes the country less safe 729 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:55,600 Speaker 2: Americans have concluded a majority of them Americans believe it 730 00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,279 Speaker 2: is a war of choice, not necessity. Again, going back 731 00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:02,000 Speaker 2: to the broader points, was this an eminent threat? Iron's 732 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,160 Speaker 2: been around since nineteen seventy nine. They've been a thorn 733 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:06,840 Speaker 2: in our sides since the beginning, And that's the argument 734 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:09,359 Speaker 2: made by many that wait a second, what's changed? What 735 00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:14,680 Speaker 2: justified the launching of this military action despite the administration's 736 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 2: call for a short term sacrifice. Here you are, in 737 00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:22,359 Speaker 2: terms of gasoline, people reject paying more for gasoline as 738 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:25,399 Speaker 2: their patriotic duty by margin of two to one. Where 739 00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:28,960 Speaker 2: are you on that You got bills to pay, You 740 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:32,239 Speaker 2: don't want to pay four dollars a gallon. It's eating 741 00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 2: into your disposable income state in the obvious, do you 742 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:37,959 Speaker 2: believe it's your patriotic duty? If we can slog through 743 00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:41,160 Speaker 2: this and ultimately end up with the world without Iran, 744 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 2: you get the regime change you're looking for. Even though 745 00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:47,080 Speaker 2: the Iranians aren't consenting to that. Are you willing to 746 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,800 Speaker 2: put up with an increased price in gasoline to achieve 747 00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:53,560 Speaker 2: that goal? Something to consider. You might get pulled over it. 748 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 2: And let me interject, since you know me, I don't 749 00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 2: believe in this whole concept of climate change. Are you 750 00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,640 Speaker 2: willing to pay a lot more for gasoline in the 751 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:04,879 Speaker 2: name of keeping carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere? There, 752 00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:06,640 Speaker 2: let me put that in your pipe and smoke on 753 00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:10,120 Speaker 2: it for a while. Forty percent of Iran as a 754 00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:14,520 Speaker 2: minor threat. Fifteen percent view it as no threat at all. 755 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:17,239 Speaker 2: That's fifty five percent saying Iran shouldn't even be paid 756 00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:22,360 Speaker 2: attention to. Only one third of people believe the current 757 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:27,040 Speaker 2: war is justified two thirds surveyed. I think the current 758 00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:29,200 Speaker 2: air and sea operation is going to lead the troops 759 00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:31,920 Speaker 2: on the ground, as Donald Trump has committed three thousand 760 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:35,799 Speaker 2: and eighty second airborne troops. I guess they're on their 761 00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:37,680 Speaker 2: way a quart of the reporting as of this morning. 762 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:39,920 Speaker 2: Kind of a threat. You know, if you're going to 763 00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:41,680 Speaker 2: send troops on the ground, you better have them ready 764 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,839 Speaker 2: to go. It's a strong suggestion to the Iranians that, well, 765 00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:50,200 Speaker 2: maybe Donald Trump will do that. However, public support for 766 00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:53,720 Speaker 2: using even a limited number of special forces only sits 767 00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:56,200 Speaker 2: at thirty four percent, a cord to the Reuter's Zipsos 768 00:40:56,239 --> 00:41:01,160 Speaker 2: poll backing for a large land invasion. Ask you are 769 00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:03,880 Speaker 2: you in favor of that? Apparently only seven percent of 770 00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:09,960 Speaker 2: Americans are in favor of a large land invasion. Sixty 771 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:13,240 Speaker 2: one percent favor ending the war quickly, twenty four percent 772 00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:16,480 Speaker 2: say we should fight on until the president's objectives are achieved. 773 00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:20,319 Speaker 2: In going back to Golston's point, what are specifically the objectives? 774 00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:22,960 Speaker 2: We might have a little insight into that with the 775 00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:27,120 Speaker 2: fifteen point plan that was released yesterday. What are the objectives? 776 00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:32,440 Speaker 2: According to reports they sent over this fifteen point plan, 777 00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:37,800 Speaker 2: it's being negotiated with some Pakistani folks. Dismantle existing nuclear capabilities, 778 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:39,960 Speaker 2: which Donald Trump said they've agreed to that, and yet 779 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:43,239 Speaker 2: the Iranian said, no, no, no, we didn't commit to 780 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:46,279 Speaker 2: never pursue nuclear weapons. That's number two, number three, number three, 781 00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:50,359 Speaker 2: no uranium in Richmond on Iranian territory. Iran must hand 782 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:53,760 Speaker 2: its stockpile of enriched uranium to the International Atomic Energy 783 00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:58,359 Speaker 2: Agency nantas Ishfashan and fod Or nuclear facilities must be 784 00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:03,880 Speaker 2: dismantled IAEA must be granted full access to Iran's nuclear facilities. 785 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:07,760 Speaker 2: Iran must abandon its regional proxy paradogem that's in quotes, 786 00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:13,799 Speaker 2: cease the funding, directing, and arming of its proxies. It 787 00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:16,839 Speaker 2: is a wishless folks reopen the strait of horror moves 788 00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:21,280 Speaker 2: and must remain reopen. Iran's missile program must be limited 789 00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:24,400 Speaker 2: in both range and quantity. Iron must limited use of 790 00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:28,840 Speaker 2: missiles for self defense, and in return, Iron would benefit 791 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:31,160 Speaker 2: from the end of sanctions imposed by the international community, 792 00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:35,320 Speaker 2: US assistants to advance civilian nuclear program and a snapback 793 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:38,160 Speaker 2: mechanism allowing for the automatic reimposition to sanctions if Iran 794 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:40,800 Speaker 2: fails to comply. Well, it's a great list of stuff 795 00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 2: and things. But pivoting over to the Irodians after on 796 00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:47,160 Speaker 2: the heels of Trump saying, hey, we've got some concession here. 797 00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:52,120 Speaker 2: They've agreed. He said yesterday of his biggest demand, they 798 00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:53,560 Speaker 2: will never have a nuclear weapon. 799 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:54,359 Speaker 1: They've agreed to that. 800 00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 2: That's a quote from Donald Trump in response to Iran says, 801 00:42:57,120 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 2: uh no, we aren't negotiating with the United States. 802 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 1: The States. 803 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,839 Speaker 2: We ud stated it has agreed to it hasn't agreed 804 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,680 Speaker 2: to any of Trump's demand, including ending its pursued of 805 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:12,279 Speaker 2: nuclear weapons. Trump said yesterday, we're actually talking to the 806 00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:14,360 Speaker 2: right people, and they want to make a deal so badly. 807 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 2: You have no idea how how badly they want to 808 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:21,279 Speaker 2: make a deal. So we have an obvious, profound disconnect 809 00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 2: here in terms of what each side is saying. And 810 00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:29,920 Speaker 2: so I'm left to basically conclude, I think, like the 811 00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:32,319 Speaker 2: rest of everybody, you have no idea where we are 812 00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:35,480 Speaker 2: on this question is are you willing to suffer through 813 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:38,600 Speaker 2: the financial difficulties you probably are facing or will face 814 00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:40,600 Speaker 2: as a consequence of this. Going back to something Donald 815 00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:42,160 Speaker 2: and O'Neil is going to be talking about food in 816 00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 2: food problems, and food prices have already gone up dramatically, 817 00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:47,799 Speaker 2: and by all accounts, that's only going to get worse 818 00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,840 Speaker 2: given the fertile is the fertilizer freeze because of the 819 00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:56,000 Speaker 2: straight up horn moves being shut down. So uh, Finally, 820 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:58,440 Speaker 2: that last couple of figures from the from the discussion 821 00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:01,759 Speaker 2: from William Galston, one court of Americans who voted for 822 00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:04,840 Speaker 2: Trump in twenty twenty four now disapprove of the Iran policy, 823 00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:09,640 Speaker 2: especially among those who really were back in strong Trump 824 00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:13,000 Speaker 2: strongly in the election, fifty six percent of young adults disapprove, 825 00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:19,440 Speaker 2: sixty two percent of Hispanic Independence disapprove, and sadly we 826 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:23,719 Speaker 2: get back may have a bad omen coming out of 827 00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:28,480 Speaker 2: Florida yesterday, which maybe puts an exclamation point and perhaps 828 00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:32,360 Speaker 2: perhaps confirms the real Clear Politics figures that Galston was 829 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:36,640 Speaker 2: relying on kind of scary stuff as we approach November five, 830 00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:39,239 Speaker 2: three seven, four nine fifty eight hundred eight two three 831 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:50,760 Speaker 2: Talk Galaxy Concrete codys I Love Galaxy conquersor eight thirty 832 00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:59,000 Speaker 2: one at fifty five KRC, the Talks Station, Happydnesday, Liberty 833 00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:03,400 Speaker 2: Collective next WEDNESDA day for listener lunch and uh, right now. 834 00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:04,279 Speaker 1: We'll dive into local stories. 835 00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:06,440 Speaker 2: Let's want a call hear from you if you have 836 00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:07,839 Speaker 2: something to say if I went three seven, four nine 837 00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:10,360 Speaker 2: fifty eight hundred eight two three talk Pound five fifty 838 00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:13,720 Speaker 2: on at and T Founds and uh, maybe some advice 839 00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:16,880 Speaker 2: for the City of Cincinnati.

And one 842 00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:27,800 Speaker 2: policy that may work for the City of Cincinnati worked 843 00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:30,319 Speaker 2: in Nashville, Tennessee. Later on that one. First a story 844 00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:33,080 Speaker 2: from the status too, but it is a local story. 845 00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:37,440 Speaker 2: I guess I have to first ask I enquiry day 846 00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:39,400 Speaker 2: far our reporting on this. Is there anybody who's a 847 00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:45,600 Speaker 2: fan of Cincinnati tap water anyway? If you are, you 848 00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:48,520 Speaker 2: can get it from a can. Apparently, Greater since a 849 00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:53,520 Speaker 2: waterworks launching a project tapping the city's waters and putting 850 00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:57,360 Speaker 2: it into a can. Water departments already produced dozens of 851 00:45:57,400 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 2: cases of this, thousands of more cans in the pipeline, 852 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:03,560 Speaker 2: and says David, Environment Protection Agency regulations to require water 853 00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:06,600 Speaker 2: companies to provide an alternative source of water to consumers 854 00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:09,160 Speaker 2: if their service is disrupted for twenty four hours longer 855 00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:11,920 Speaker 2: like a water main break. This project the way to 856 00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:16,120 Speaker 2: comply with the regulation. Water Companies executive director Andrew Yang 857 00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 2: said they are looking into selling the water and possibly 858 00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:23,600 Speaker 2: placing it at local grocery stores. Money raised we'll go 859 00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:26,960 Speaker 2: toward customers who cannot afford their water bills or education 860 00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:31,480 Speaker 2: events at the Sinsee public schools. Yang said Greater Cincinnatio 861 00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:35,640 Speaker 2: Waterworks won the best tasting tap water in Ohio. How 862 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:42,080 Speaker 2: high is that bar? We're excited to share this homeward 863 00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:45,400 Speaker 2: winning tap water with the community. Production costs four nine 864 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:49,560 Speaker 2: twenty cans fifteen thousand bucks aka three bucks a can. 865 00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:52,640 Speaker 1: I don't know you'd call that a value. 866 00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:55,759 Speaker 2: Go ahead, We've got to Betavia, where a village of 867 00:46:55,760 --> 00:46:59,040 Speaker 2: Botavia council members now facing assault charges for attacking a 868 00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:04,640 Speaker 2: resident outside of a public townhole meeting. Michael Gardner charged 869 00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:07,120 Speaker 2: with one kind of assault, first degree misdemeanor. Courted to 870 00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:10,759 Speaker 2: the Claremont County Sheriff's office, he entered a not guilty plea. 871 00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:13,319 Speaker 2: William Albright said he was the man that Gardner took 872 00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:16,560 Speaker 2: a swing at after a council meeting, pointing out first 873 00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:19,240 Speaker 2: he attends hundreds of meetings.

He 876 00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:26,000 Speaker 2: said it was at mondaynight's Monday night's meeting, expressing concerns 877 00:47:26,040 --> 00:47:30,160 Speaker 2: about an upcoming fire levee. He said things escalated verbally. 878 00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:38,040 Speaker 2: Albright and Gardner during the public comment, Albright said, I'm 879 00:47:38,080 --> 00:47:40,759 Speaker 2: not the person that you will talk to like you 880 00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:43,920 Speaker 2: have in the past that you can get that straight 881 00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:49,000 Speaker 2: right now, saying you can kiss my a word. Gardner 882 00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:54,759 Speaker 2: then told Albright, let's walk outside. Cording the reporting, Albright said, 883 00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:57,080 Speaker 2: he followed me right out, got right in my face 884 00:47:57,080 --> 00:47:59,040 Speaker 2: and I flipped him off in there. He came out 885 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:02,040 Speaker 2: there and said, flip me off again. I flipped him 886 00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:04,040 Speaker 2: off again, and he took a swing and he missed 887 00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:09,400 Speaker 2: because he's slow close. Quote Sheriff Stratton in his statement, 888 00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:12,000 Speaker 2: the Sheriff's Office takes allegations of violence seriously, regardless of 889 00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:14,000 Speaker 2: the individuals involved. This matter as being hand on according 890 00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:17,919 Speaker 2: to the law. Gardner appearing in court uh ten am 891 00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:22,240 Speaker 2: this morning for a temporary protection order hearing, Albright said, 892 00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:25,520 Speaker 2: I want him removed from this council.

If you know the story, you'll get a 900 00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:59,560 Speaker 2: kick out of it. I'll probably headline quadrivile amputique cornhole 901 00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:03,200 Speaker 2: champion claims it was a different quadruple amputeue cornhole champion 902 00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:06,640 Speaker 2: who shot that guy. If you don't know about it, 903 00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 2: it might be worth looking into that story. Wow, it 904 00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:11,480 Speaker 2: did make it into the Stackers Dupid this morning. I 905 00:49:11,520 --> 00:49:14,359 Speaker 2: stally didn't have time editorial discretion on that one. 906 00:49:14,400 --> 00:49:14,840 Speaker 1: Anyway. 907 00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:19,240 Speaker 2: While Trump tries to keep his well keep a positive image, 908 00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:22,440 Speaker 2: this war is real problematic for him from a public 909 00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:26,400 Speaker 2: well coping with the repercussions of it, whether it's gas prices, 910 00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:30,120 Speaker 2: the concern over a global conflict which since ira or 911 00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:36,799 Speaker 2: Israel started launching rockets into the Caspian Sea. 912 00:49:39,680 --> 00:49:40,200 Speaker 1: Corner of ports. 913 00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:42,400 Speaker 2: From yesterday, Israel strike on a naval outpost in the 914 00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:47,200 Speaker 2: Caspian seae like what targeted Russia's support for Iran in 915 00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:49,920 Speaker 2: the war, hitting a supply line that countries have used 916 00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:53,080 Speaker 2: to move ammunition, drones and other weapons, ry webary, but 917 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:56,120 Speaker 2: also food and other supplies that have nothing to do 918 00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:59,840 Speaker 2: with the war. Yeah, Caspian Sea, Russians and the Iranians 919 00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:01,560 Speaker 2: come back and forth. They've been at this for a 920 00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:04,040 Speaker 2: long long time. That was not a military target up 921 00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:07,440 Speaker 2: until I guess last week was first reported though yesterday, 922 00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:11,600 Speaker 2: so our suggesting if we get the Russians involved, are 923 00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:15,080 Speaker 2: we not expanding this war and involving global powers that 924 00:50:15,160 --> 00:50:18,719 Speaker 2: have nuclear weapons and therefore labeling at World War three? 925 00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:22,080 Speaker 2: It's certainly a possibility. So freaked out people are, however, 926 00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:24,760 Speaker 2: and a lesson that maybe Cincinnati can tap on into. 927 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:28,080 Speaker 2: Trump was down in Memphis yesterday. Guess what, I guess 928 00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:31,239 Speaker 2: Cracking down on crime works, especially if you have the 929 00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:36,840 Speaker 2: cooperation of the city, which they did roundtable event with 930 00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:47,520 Speaker 2: folks in Memphis Senior Leadership team. Last September, the Trump 931 00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:52,560 Speaker 2: team launched the Memphis Safe Task Force. Now does this 932 00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:55,040 Speaker 2: sound familiar for those out there that remember Police Chief 933 00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:57,319 Speaker 2: threes that DG force. She was placed on administrative leave. 934 00:50:57,320 --> 00:51:03,200 Speaker 2: Hey Signal ninety nine, multi agency effort involving federal officers, 935 00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:05,960 Speaker 2: local police, and the Tennessee National Guard to fight violent crime. 936 00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:08,880 Speaker 1: It was a bad idea. 937 00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:11,200 Speaker 2: Last summer before the election, Police Chief three g pased 938 00:51:11,239 --> 00:51:13,359 Speaker 2: on administrative leaving low and behold. Now they're out rolling 939 00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:15,160 Speaker 2: it out saying how great it is here in Cincinnati. 940 00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:18,799 Speaker 2: We're working with federal partners, We're prosecuting people federally. All right, 941 00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:21,719 Speaker 2: but we're down in Memphis for this one. Before the 942 00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:28,000 Speaker 2: initiative got launched, Memphis had the highest rate of violent 943 00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:33,080 Speaker 2: crime per capita in the country. That's FBI statistics, highest 944 00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:38,840 Speaker 2: per capitay in the country. Fast forward to now, overall 945 00:51:38,920 --> 00:51:43,920 Speaker 2: crime down forty three percent compared to last year. The 946 00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:46,920 Speaker 2: task force said it recently has made close to seven 947 00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:51,239 Speaker 2: thousand arrests and seized more than eleven hundred illegal firearms 948 00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:58,560 Speaker 2: since the crackdown began. Trump said, you have now developed 949 00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:00,960 Speaker 2: a reputation as a city that's coming back stronger than 950 00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:03,680 Speaker 2: any city in the country because of what's happened with crime, 951 00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:08,400 Speaker 2: and because your political leaders had the courage to do 952 00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:10,520 Speaker 2: what they did, in other words, get tough on crime. 953 00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:15,480 Speaker 2: Look wow, proving that the criminal justice system foundational points 954 00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:18,640 Speaker 2: actually work. If you're tough on crime, you punish people. 955 00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:21,480 Speaker 2: Not only do you punish them for the harm they 956 00:52:21,480 --> 00:52:24,320 Speaker 2: did to society at large, but you act as a deterrence. 957 00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:27,920 Speaker 2: Your prosecution and stiff punishment serves as a warning to 958 00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:29,880 Speaker 2: all others out there in the world who might commit 959 00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:32,880 Speaker 2: crimes that you're going to be dealt with harshly, and 960 00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:37,520 Speaker 2: if you do it crime jobs. Hey, Iris Rawley, how's 961 00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:49,520 Speaker 2: that for a concept changing tactics they're hoping will help 962 00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:52,120 Speaker 2: Donald Trump. See, I'm bringing this up in an effort 963 00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:54,719 Speaker 2: to project, yes, there are some things that he's doing 964 00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:57,920 Speaker 2: that are great. They're benefiting society, everybody in Memphis. I 965 00:52:58,000 --> 00:52:59,799 Speaker 2: can't imagine if they want to get Donald Trump credit 966 00:52:59,880 --> 00:53:03,600 Speaker 2: for or not, but this effort clearly paid off in 967 00:53:03,640 --> 00:53:08,920 Speaker 2: a major way. Politically advantageous. This would be let's get 968 00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:10,759 Speaker 2: this word out there, Hey, this guy knows what to 969 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:13,040 Speaker 2: do about crime. About sixty one percent of respondent in 970 00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:16,000 Speaker 2: a re Reuter's up ipso's poll last month, including ninety 971 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:19,440 Speaker 2: two percent of Republicans, thirty five percent of Democrats, said 972 00:53:19,480 --> 00:53:23,960 Speaker 2: they supported deporting unauthorized migrants, but generally disapproved of the 973 00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:30,840 Speaker 2: Trump administration's hardline tactics. Something else that is changing the 974 00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:33,600 Speaker 2: idea of going after the worst of the worst people 975 00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:36,120 Speaker 2: with the detention order the committed crimes, that is still 976 00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:40,880 Speaker 2: widely embraced. But you've noticed, at least maybe I've had noticed, 977 00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:43,520 Speaker 2: maybe I've missed some important reporting on it. You don't 978 00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:47,320 Speaker 2: see about the protests, the war, the violence in the streets, 979 00:53:47,320 --> 00:53:50,680 Speaker 2: the street protesters going after ICE agents. That's because the 980 00:53:50,719 --> 00:53:57,120 Speaker 2: Trump administration's kind of toned down its policy. They don't 981 00:53:57,160 --> 00:53:59,600 Speaker 2: have to have that much involvement with people. If you 982 00:53:59,640 --> 00:54:02,600 Speaker 2: go after the hardest of hardcore, you can probably get 983 00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:05,360 Speaker 2: a judicial warrant, which are on the rise, as opposed 984 00:54:05,360 --> 00:54:08,040 Speaker 2: to going with an administrative warrant, which of course angers 985 00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:10,440 Speaker 2: the Democrats and provides fodder for the keeping the government 986 00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:16,480 Speaker 2: shut down argument. Nobody has a problem with ICE agents 987 00:54:16,520 --> 00:54:19,799 Speaker 2: being at the airport right now. Apparently they got a 988 00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:22,719 Speaker 2: problem ironed out. There's lines not nearly as long as 989 00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:24,960 Speaker 2: they were before Trump sent IC in, so they can't 990 00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:28,279 Speaker 2: accomplish something. Six forty five fifty five KRSD talk station 991 00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:30,960 Speaker 2: and but Herbertmotors to the rescue if you need new 992 00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:35,760 Speaker 2: six fifty one to fifty five care CD talk station. 993 00:54:35,880 --> 00:54:41,040 Speaker 2: Thank you, Timothy. Talking about how price of gasoline and 994 00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:43,279 Speaker 2: of course people angry about it in the situation in 995 00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:46,360 Speaker 2: the Middle East. Of course, the impacting and dramatically average 996 00:54:46,360 --> 00:54:48,520 Speaker 2: price locally about four bucks, and that's gone up dramatic 997 00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:52,040 Speaker 2: about a dollar over the past couple of weeks. Timothy, 998 00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:55,160 Speaker 2: a little bit of rational thought on this one hundred 999 00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:58,520 Speaker 2: and twenty eight fluid ounces in a gallon bottle of water. 1000 00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:01,600 Speaker 2: Typical sixteen ounces takes eight bottle of water to make 1001 00:55:01,640 --> 00:55:04,480 Speaker 2: a gallon. Thank you Tim for doing the math. People 1002 00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:07,040 Speaker 2: complain about four dollars a gallon for gasoline, but don't 1003 00:55:07,040 --> 00:55:09,719 Speaker 2: complain about paying a dollar a bottle for water at 1004 00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:13,120 Speaker 2: a gas station, meaning it's eight dollars per gallon for water, 1005 00:55:15,040 --> 00:55:16,600 Speaker 2: to which I of course had to chime in. Or 1006 00:55:16,640 --> 00:55:18,480 Speaker 2: maybe seven dollars for a couple of Starbucks when you 1007 00:55:18,560 --> 00:55:21,239 Speaker 2: can make multiply twenty three pots of coffee from a 1008 00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:24,439 Speaker 2: couple of pounds at of costco coffee, which has gone 1009 00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:28,640 Speaker 2: up dramatically but is still only nineteen dollars for two pounds, 1010 00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:33,000 Speaker 2: make it at home, and probably you'll save more than 1011 00:55:33,040 --> 00:55:35,640 Speaker 2: the increase in your gasoline price, considering how much coffee 1012 00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:38,439 Speaker 2: gets consumed anyway, pivoting over we always do tech Frida 1013 00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:40,120 Speaker 2: with Dave Hotter. I wanted to get this in. Actually 1014 00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:41,920 Speaker 2: I view this as a positive thing. I have no 1015 00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:45,800 Speaker 2: idea where this AI future is for US artificial intelligence. 1016 00:55:45,800 --> 00:55:50,120 Speaker 2: But a New Mexico jury yesterday ordered Meta to pay 1017 00:55:50,280 --> 00:55:54,000 Speaker 2: three hundred and seventy five million dollars, finding the company 1018 00:55:54,080 --> 00:55:56,719 Speaker 2: violated state law by misleading users about the safety of 1019 00:55:56,760 --> 00:56:02,319 Speaker 2: its platforms, enabling child exploitation. It was a jury trial 1020 00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:06,360 Speaker 2: they found Facebook and Instagram's parent company violated in Mexico's 1021 00:56:06,360 --> 00:56:09,320 Speaker 2: consumer protection law, following a lawsuit brought by the Attorney 1022 00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:12,279 Speaker 2: General there Raoul Torres, which accused Meta of family to 1023 00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:18,760 Speaker 2: protect children from predators. Raoul Torres in a statement, jury 1024 00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:21,560 Speaker 2: verdict is a historic victory for every child and family 1025 00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:23,799 Speaker 2: who has paid the price for Meta's choice to put 1026 00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:28,480 Speaker 2: profits over kids' safety. Meta's executives knew their products harmed children, 1027 00:56:28,840 --> 00:56:31,520 Speaker 2: disregarded warnings from their own employees, and lied to the 1028 00:56:31,520 --> 00:56:34,920 Speaker 2: public about what they knew. Today, the jury joined families, educators, 1029 00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:38,000 Speaker 2: and child safety experts and saying enough is enough. That 1030 00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:40,760 Speaker 2: is the first time a state has prevailed at trial 1031 00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:43,560 Speaker 2: against a tech company over its claims that children are 1032 00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:52,600 Speaker 2: harmed by their products. Unbelievable lawsuit was filed originally in 1033 00:56:52,640 --> 00:56:56,359 Speaker 2: twenty twenty three, alleging Meta created what they called a 1034 00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:59,840 Speaker 2: breeding ground for child predators and misled users about this 1035 00:56:59,880 --> 00:57:04,800 Speaker 2: safety protections that Facebook claimed were there. Now that penalty, 1036 00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:06,640 Speaker 2: it's about how big it is. Three hundred and seventy 1037 00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:09,120 Speaker 2: five million dollars the I believe they were looking for 1038 00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:12,600 Speaker 2: two point one billion dollars. The officials in New Mexico 1039 00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:16,360 Speaker 2: were Jerry did award. They claim the maximum allowed under 1040 00:57:16,360 --> 00:57:18,720 Speaker 2: state law five thousand dollars per violation. 1041 00:57:20,200 --> 00:57:21,600 Speaker 1: Meta of course is going to appeal. 1042 00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:25,680 Speaker 2: UH I like this normally, I'm not huge, and you know, 1043 00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:28,440 Speaker 2: playing is going after companies that obviously makes the price 1044 00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:30,440 Speaker 2: of whatever good or service out in the world go 1045 00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:32,000 Speaker 2: up because they have to deal with the aftermath. But 1046 00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:34,320 Speaker 2: it is accountability, and that's the thing that's baked into 1047 00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:38,920 Speaker 2: the civil justice system we have here accountability and since 1048 00:57:39,360 --> 00:57:43,600 Speaker 2: Meta global it is and there are tight regulatory restrictions 1049 00:57:43,640 --> 00:57:45,960 Speaker 2: elsewhere in the world, tighter than they are here. Now 1050 00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:48,320 Speaker 2: is staring this and may not win on appeal. They 1051 00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:50,880 Speaker 2: may have to shell out this money. They know that 1052 00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:54,040 Speaker 2: massive liability awaits them down the road. What's the best 1053 00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:57,640 Speaker 2: possible thing they can do right, step up to the plate. 1054 00:57:57,960 --> 00:58:03,520 Speaker 2: Provide adequate and comprehensive protection services. Maybe that you can 1055 00:58:03,560 --> 00:58:06,200 Speaker 2: turn on and off your discretion. That is a product 1056 00:58:06,240 --> 00:58:08,080 Speaker 2: feature that's supposed to either draw you in or not 1057 00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:11,720 Speaker 2: having the feature available, so parents and children can all 1058 00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:15,200 Speaker 2: be protected having it in place by default. So you 1059 00:58:15,240 --> 00:58:21,800 Speaker 2: can't come up with pedophile connections on through the platform. 1060 00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:24,720 Speaker 2: Most people aren't hip and savvy about how this stuff work. 1061 00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:27,560 Speaker 2: And I'll throw myself right in the equation. Then again, 1062 00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:31,200 Speaker 2: I'm an adult. I don't have to worry about it. Thankfully, 1063 00:58:31,240 --> 00:58:34,280 Speaker 2: my children are adults. I don't have to worry about them. 1064 00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:39,560 Speaker 2: But given the the vast majority of people aren't really 1065 00:58:39,880 --> 00:58:44,200 Speaker 2: capable of really understanding how this works and how easy 1066 00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:46,280 Speaker 2: it is for perverts to get in touch with your 1067 00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:51,080 Speaker 2: kids on multiple platforms, then maybe we should start from 1068 00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:54,320 Speaker 2: the default position that perverts won't be able to get 1069 00:58:54,360 --> 00:58:56,400 Speaker 2: access to your kids unless, of course, you turn that 1070 00:58:56,440 --> 00:59:00,000 Speaker 2: filter off six fifty five fifty five KS. The talk states, 1071 00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:04,240 Speaker 2: so it is seven six if if you got ksen 1072 00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:07,400 Speaker 2: me talk station. Thomas always happy at this moment in 1073 00:59:07,440 --> 00:59:09,040 Speaker 2: time because it is the time when we get the 1074 00:59:09,080 --> 00:59:12,040 Speaker 2: brilliance of the big picture with Jack Adathan and Jack 1075 00:59:12,080 --> 00:59:13,920 Speaker 2: Adan and my friend. Thank you so much or for 1076 00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:16,480 Speaker 2: your time today and for all your time previously. I 1077 00:59:16,520 --> 00:59:19,360 Speaker 2: really enjoy hearing from you, and I've just the way 1078 00:59:19,400 --> 00:59:22,320 Speaker 2: you weave history in with things going on right now 1079 00:59:22,360 --> 00:59:24,520 Speaker 2: in modern times is always brilliant. 1080 00:59:24,560 --> 00:59:25,200 Speaker 1: Good to have you back. 1081 00:59:25,200 --> 00:59:28,560 Speaker 6: On the show, my friend, thanks so much, brother, I 1082 00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:34,000 Speaker 6: appreciate it. To celebrate spring and Opening Day, let's hear 1083 00:59:34,080 --> 00:59:39,880 Speaker 6: a Democrats version of Elizabeth Barrett Browning. How do I 1084 00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:43,840 Speaker 6: hate Trump? Let me count the ways. I hate him 1085 00:59:43,840 --> 00:59:47,880 Speaker 6: for securing the border and disarming you run. I hate 1086 00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:50,840 Speaker 6: Trump for his tax cuts and his spending cuts, his 1087 00:59:50,960 --> 00:59:55,080 Speaker 6: regulatory cuts and his haircut. I hate him for his wealth, 1088 00:59:55,320 --> 00:59:59,280 Speaker 6: for his wife and his oh so perfect kids, don't 1089 00:59:59,320 --> 01:00:02,520 Speaker 6: you miss hunter. I hate how he's keeping boys from 1090 01:00:02,560 --> 01:00:07,080 Speaker 6: becoming girls and illegals from becoming voters. And if some 1091 01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:11,120 Speaker 6: crazed who or paid assassin shoes, I shall but hate 1092 01:00:11,200 --> 01:00:16,600 Speaker 6: Trump better after death. My friends, that's the Democrat Party 1093 01:00:16,720 --> 01:00:19,840 Speaker 6: in a nutshell. And it's still hard to believe that 1094 01:00:19,880 --> 01:00:26,160 Speaker 6: Democrats are playing Russian Roulette with homeland security during the war. Yes, 1095 01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:28,920 Speaker 6: they may soon cut a deal that does not include 1096 01:00:28,960 --> 01:00:33,280 Speaker 6: long term funding for ICE. Senator Eric Swalwell wants to 1097 01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:38,200 Speaker 6: disband ICE altogether, and House Minority Leader Hakim Jeffries He 1098 01:00:38,280 --> 01:00:41,800 Speaker 6: says ICE agents the President has helping out at airports. 1099 01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:46,720 Speaker 6: Now those ICE agents may shoot passengers, and not just 1100 01:00:46,760 --> 01:00:49,280 Speaker 6: the ones who recline their seats right into your lap. 1101 01:00:49,400 --> 01:00:52,960 Speaker 6: We'd all like to shoot them. Democrats want to abolish 1102 01:00:53,040 --> 01:00:57,720 Speaker 6: immigration and customs enforcements, and we know why, so tens 1103 01:00:57,760 --> 01:01:01,160 Speaker 6: of millions of illegal invaders can be counted in the 1104 01:01:01,240 --> 01:01:05,520 Speaker 6: census and swell the populations of all the sanctuary cities 1105 01:01:05,960 --> 01:01:10,520 Speaker 6: and seventeen sanctuary states run by Democrats, giving them more 1106 01:01:10,560 --> 01:01:16,240 Speaker 6: seats in Congress and more taxpayer funds for fraudulent social programs. Folks, 1107 01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:20,680 Speaker 6: it's all about power. The power that Lord Acton said, 1108 01:01:21,120 --> 01:01:24,880 Speaker 6: and we say all the time corrupts a little bit 1109 01:01:24,920 --> 01:01:28,120 Speaker 6: of history, because that's what we do here. Corruption started 1110 01:01:28,160 --> 01:01:32,160 Speaker 6: polluting American politics about two hundred years ago with the 1111 01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:37,120 Speaker 6: new spoil system of Democrats Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren. 1112 01:01:37,880 --> 01:01:42,040 Speaker 6: In fairness, corruption continued under establishment Republicans, and it does 1113 01:01:42,080 --> 01:01:47,480 Speaker 6: to this day. Politicians handed governor contracts and jobs to fatcats, 1114 01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:52,000 Speaker 6: filling their campaign coffers and their pockets, even though our 1115 01:01:52,080 --> 01:01:57,560 Speaker 6: whole constitutional system was built to avoid corruption by keeping 1116 01:01:57,600 --> 01:02:01,800 Speaker 6: divided government as small as possible. The chief job of 1117 01:02:01,800 --> 01:02:04,640 Speaker 6: the federal government was supposed to be what we now 1118 01:02:04,680 --> 01:02:12,560 Speaker 6: call national security, homeland security, including border security. President Eisenhower, 1119 01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:17,720 Speaker 6: who swept up and deported one point three million illegals, Obama, 1120 01:02:17,880 --> 01:02:21,600 Speaker 6: who after he lost the midterms deported three million illegals, 1121 01:02:22,040 --> 01:02:26,160 Speaker 6: and Trump, who's been called hitler for deporting two point 1122 01:02:26,160 --> 01:02:30,840 Speaker 6: five million, most of whom self deported. They and all 1123 01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:35,360 Speaker 6: other presidents, even Lion Joe Biden, agreed we must ban 1124 01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:41,080 Speaker 6: illegal immigration. Yet Democrats continue to undercut national security, from 1125 01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:44,560 Speaker 6: criminals here at home to Iranian mullas hoping to blow 1126 01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:49,440 Speaker 6: us the Kingdom come. Lacking any growth or security agenda. 1127 01:02:49,960 --> 01:02:54,440 Speaker 6: Democrats are corrupt to the core, which got me wondering, Brian, 1128 01:02:55,760 --> 01:03:00,720 Speaker 6: has there ever been an institution that proved incorruptible, a 1129 01:03:00,720 --> 01:03:04,600 Speaker 6: group so high minded it was immune to Lord Acton's warning. 1130 01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:07,360 Speaker 6: Maybe because this is the last time we're going to 1131 01:03:07,400 --> 01:03:10,480 Speaker 6: be talking before Easter, I came up with one. One 1132 01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:16,120 Speaker 6: incorruptible institution. Monasteries. You didn't see that coming. 1133 01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:17,680 Speaker 1: I didn't. 1134 01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:23,680 Speaker 6: Monasteries, Christian monasteries shielded from temptation, monks taking a vow 1135 01:03:23,760 --> 01:03:28,280 Speaker 6: of poverty, chastity, and service to God. If power can 1136 01:03:28,360 --> 01:03:35,480 Speaker 6: corrupt monks, it really can't corrupt anything. Well, sadly, Brian, coming, 1137 01:03:36,360 --> 01:03:39,920 Speaker 6: that's exactly what happened, Not today, and not with the 1138 01:03:40,040 --> 01:03:44,240 Speaker 6: vast majority of monks, much less nuns anytime, but just 1139 01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:50,080 Speaker 6: enough of them to threaten the entire institution. Until monasteries 1140 01:03:50,160 --> 01:03:54,320 Speaker 6: underwent the kind of reform that our Leviathan government is 1141 01:03:54,480 --> 01:03:59,680 Speaker 6: crying out for. Here's that history. The first monk, in 1142 01:03:59,760 --> 01:04:04,520 Speaker 6: a way, was Jesus's cousin, John the Baptist. John wandered 1143 01:04:04,520 --> 01:04:08,720 Speaker 6: in the wilderness wearing animal skins, eating locusts and wild honey, 1144 01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:12,360 Speaker 6: proclaiming the coming of the Messiah. John paid for that 1145 01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:16,800 Speaker 6: with his head. Nothing corrupt about him. The apostles were 1146 01:04:16,840 --> 01:04:20,320 Speaker 6: also monks of a kind, living communally until they set 1147 01:04:20,320 --> 01:04:24,920 Speaker 6: out across their own world preaching the Gospel. Except for Judas' 1148 01:04:25,000 --> 01:04:28,120 Speaker 6: carrey it in his Thirty Pieces of Silver, the first 1149 01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:33,000 Speaker 6: true monastery gathered monks in all places in Egypt. The 1150 01:04:33,040 --> 01:04:38,000 Speaker 6: word monk comes from the Greek meaning solitary. Soon other 1151 01:04:38,120 --> 01:04:42,760 Speaker 6: monasteries and then convents started spreading, led by saints, remarkable 1152 01:04:42,800 --> 01:04:47,840 Speaker 6: people like Benedict and Francis, they improved farming, founded schools, 1153 01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:51,880 Speaker 6: and together with Islamic scholars, a story we've told before. 1154 01:04:52,160 --> 01:04:56,560 Speaker 6: Monasteries during the Dark Ages also preserved writings of the 1155 01:04:56,600 --> 01:05:00,800 Speaker 6: ancient Greeks and Romans, paving the way for thenance. We 1156 01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:03,400 Speaker 6: should pay particular attention to that, because we may be 1157 01:05:03,600 --> 01:05:08,320 Speaker 6: entering another period of dark ages. At their best, monasteries 1158 01:05:08,360 --> 01:05:12,720 Speaker 6: devoted themselves to the imitation of Christ. For instance, during 1159 01:05:12,760 --> 01:05:16,120 Speaker 6: a terrible famine in the twelfth century, one monastery in 1160 01:05:16,160 --> 01:05:20,040 Speaker 6: Westphalia slaughtered all of its flocks and herds, sold its 1161 01:05:20,040 --> 01:05:24,440 Speaker 6: books and even sacred vessels, and donated the proceeds to 1162 01:05:24,480 --> 01:05:30,000 Speaker 6: feed the poor. That was the ideal. However, many monasteries 1163 01:05:30,040 --> 01:05:34,560 Speaker 6: fell short of the ideal. They became rich because rich 1164 01:05:34,600 --> 01:05:38,680 Speaker 6: benefactors bequeathed them fortunes. Try to buy a ticket to heaven. 1165 01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:43,280 Speaker 6: Monasteries expanded their land holdings. They accepted into their ranks 1166 01:05:43,480 --> 01:05:46,800 Speaker 6: the cronies of their day, the younger sons of noblemen. 1167 01:05:47,160 --> 01:05:49,680 Speaker 6: They paid laymen to do the hard work they used 1168 01:05:49,760 --> 01:05:53,040 Speaker 6: to do, and let many abbots and friars live like 1169 01:05:53,160 --> 01:05:58,040 Speaker 6: anyone but John the Baptist. Does this remind you of 1170 01:05:58,240 --> 01:06:04,520 Speaker 6: anything of maybe modern politicians, maybe our entire Congress. The 1171 01:06:04,560 --> 01:06:09,440 Speaker 6: good news, in every sense is that for monasteries, decadentes 1172 01:06:09,520 --> 01:06:14,240 Speaker 6: finally brought on reform. The Protestant Reformation and the Catholic 1173 01:06:14,320 --> 01:06:18,560 Speaker 6: counter Reformation drove these latter day money changers out of 1174 01:06:18,600 --> 01:06:21,320 Speaker 6: the temple. We don't have time to continue the much 1175 01:06:21,320 --> 01:06:25,160 Speaker 6: more uplifting history that followed. Suffice it to say I 1176 01:06:25,240 --> 01:06:28,520 Speaker 6: have enormous respect for the more than five hundred and 1177 01:06:28,560 --> 01:06:33,880 Speaker 6: eighty monasteries today in the US alone. My point is that, 1178 01:06:34,040 --> 01:06:38,000 Speaker 6: just as in medieval times when corrupt monasteries sold out 1179 01:06:38,320 --> 01:06:43,400 Speaker 6: deeply devout brothers in Christ, today the Democrat Party and 1180 01:06:43,480 --> 01:06:47,280 Speaker 6: some Republicans, in a quest for power and graft, they 1181 01:06:47,280 --> 01:06:52,520 Speaker 6: have sold out core constituencies. American workers whose wages are 1182 01:06:52,600 --> 01:06:56,240 Speaker 6: undercut by tens of millions of illegal migrants here at home, 1183 01:06:56,520 --> 01:06:59,919 Speaker 6: and by manufacturers who ship their jobs to communists China, 1184 01:07:00,600 --> 01:07:04,400 Speaker 6: families whose kids' education has been sacrificed to the greed 1185 01:07:04,560 --> 01:07:10,080 Speaker 6: of teacher unions. Inner city minorities made abjectly dependent on 1186 01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:15,560 Speaker 6: Democrat big government for food, housing, everything except their safety 1187 01:07:15,880 --> 01:07:20,640 Speaker 6: because big government leads them utterly unsafe from street thugs 1188 01:07:20,680 --> 01:07:24,880 Speaker 6: and from enemies like communists China and Iran Brian. Just 1189 01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:29,080 Speaker 6: as churches had to reform themselves and rid themselves of 1190 01:07:29,160 --> 01:07:33,240 Speaker 6: corrupt prelates, America has to rid itself of corrupt, power 1191 01:07:33,360 --> 01:07:38,840 Speaker 6: hungry politicians and their paymasters in both parties, because if 1192 01:07:38,880 --> 01:07:42,040 Speaker 6: you can corrupt a monastery, imagine what you can do 1193 01:07:42,120 --> 01:07:45,880 Speaker 6: to a political party. Or rather don't imagine. Just look 1194 01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:50,400 Speaker 6: and then in the coming primaries, and especially this November 1195 01:07:51,120 --> 01:07:55,440 Speaker 6: vote to cleanse America, what do you say, brother. 1196 01:07:55,200 --> 01:07:59,760 Speaker 2: Brian, Well, the reformation process brought about by a lot 1197 01:07:59,760 --> 01:08:02,600 Speaker 2: of of course, and that was a positive thing. I 1198 01:08:02,680 --> 01:08:06,640 Speaker 2: know a lot of my listeners are clamoring for non incumbents, 1199 01:08:06,680 --> 01:08:09,040 Speaker 2: those who have not benefited from the political machine, those 1200 01:08:09,080 --> 01:08:11,840 Speaker 2: whose hands are clean and free of the corruption about 1201 01:08:11,840 --> 01:08:14,240 Speaker 2: which you speak, and I understand that maybe this is 1202 01:08:14,280 --> 01:08:16,280 Speaker 2: a form of reformation on our own. We don't need 1203 01:08:16,360 --> 01:08:18,519 Speaker 2: term limits. We just need to make more informed, better 1204 01:08:18,600 --> 01:08:20,400 Speaker 2: choices when it goes to selecting candidates. 1205 01:08:20,479 --> 01:08:24,679 Speaker 6: Jack, Yeah, we have to get behind outsiders, anybody who 1206 01:08:24,760 --> 01:08:27,479 Speaker 6: is running against incumbents that we feel are falling short 1207 01:08:27,479 --> 01:08:28,960 Speaker 6: of the job. And I'm not going to name some 1208 01:08:29,040 --> 01:08:33,840 Speaker 6: of them. Some of them don't have opponents incoming primaries, 1209 01:08:33,840 --> 01:08:36,720 Speaker 6: and that really is a shame because everybody, even the 1210 01:08:36,720 --> 01:08:39,840 Speaker 6: good ones, even the best, have to face challenges in 1211 01:08:39,920 --> 01:08:44,240 Speaker 6: order to stay on their toes. Something more about the Democrats, Brian. 1212 01:08:45,560 --> 01:08:50,400 Speaker 6: Democrat leaders like Chuck Schumer, Zora and Momdami. They're no 1213 01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:54,680 Speaker 6: longer even trying to pass as Centrists. And the scariest 1214 01:08:54,720 --> 01:08:58,719 Speaker 6: thing about that claim from Haaking Jeffreys that ice agents 1215 01:08:58,720 --> 01:09:02,839 Speaker 6: at airports will shoot passengers is that he knows millions 1216 01:09:02,840 --> 01:09:08,320 Speaker 6: of Democrats will buy that. Why because they're so stupid. 1217 01:09:09,040 --> 01:09:12,479 Speaker 6: I'm sorry, my Democrat friends and family, but it's true. 1218 01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:16,719 Speaker 6: With their control of schools, social media, and most pop culture, 1219 01:09:16,960 --> 01:09:21,559 Speaker 6: Democrats are racing to make America totally dependent on their 1220 01:09:21,560 --> 01:09:26,640 Speaker 6: totalitarian big brother government. The fight against stupidity has to 1221 01:09:26,680 --> 01:09:30,040 Speaker 6: begin at home, each of our homes and schools, and 1222 01:09:30,360 --> 01:09:33,400 Speaker 6: just in time for Passover in the Easter, it's got 1223 01:09:33,400 --> 01:09:36,439 Speaker 6: to beginning in our places of worship. The alternative is 1224 01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:38,040 Speaker 6: literally unthinkable. 1225 01:09:38,960 --> 01:09:41,080 Speaker 2: Indeed, you know it's interesting timing on your comments, Sir 1226 01:09:41,120 --> 01:09:42,639 Speaker 2: Tom Hagener is going to join us at eight oh five. 1227 01:09:42,640 --> 01:09:44,360 Speaker 2: He's going to empower you some of ar tonight about 1228 01:09:44,360 --> 01:09:47,800 Speaker 2: socialist efforts to change American of course, focusing largely on 1229 01:09:47,840 --> 01:09:50,880 Speaker 2: the education system, which is taken over by socialists. But 1230 01:09:50,920 --> 01:09:54,200 Speaker 2: lo and behold Jack Avidan behind the scenes on that one. 1231 01:09:54,240 --> 01:09:58,320 Speaker 2: What are we seeing in education? A reformation effort choice, 1232 01:09:58,760 --> 01:10:02,479 Speaker 2: giving people the option, a growing growing rank of people 1233 01:10:02,560 --> 01:10:05,360 Speaker 2: that are doing exactly that, more states giving people the option, 1234 01:10:05,560 --> 01:10:07,800 Speaker 2: even the dollars follow the children as opposed going directly 1235 01:10:07,840 --> 01:10:10,080 Speaker 2: to the public schools, which are nothing more than in 1236 01:10:10,120 --> 01:10:12,880 Speaker 2: doctrination camp. So maybe we'll find ourselves on the other 1237 01:10:12,920 --> 01:10:15,519 Speaker 2: side at some point, jack outed in any better place. 1238 01:10:16,000 --> 01:10:17,720 Speaker 2: Thanks to the efforts by so many out there who 1239 01:10:17,760 --> 01:10:19,680 Speaker 2: are pushing for school choice in order to prevent the 1240 01:10:19,680 --> 01:10:23,520 Speaker 2: indoctrination of their children along these extraordinarily stupid lines. 1241 01:10:23,880 --> 01:10:27,240 Speaker 6: And more and more parents and students realizing that they 1242 01:10:27,280 --> 01:10:31,360 Speaker 6: don't need so called higher education. Higher education is a 1243 01:10:31,479 --> 01:10:33,800 Speaker 6: racket that bill has started after World War Two with 1244 01:10:33,840 --> 01:10:36,599 Speaker 6: the GI Bill. A lot of people, my dad among them, 1245 01:10:36,880 --> 01:10:40,080 Speaker 6: did get a good education. My dad became a dietitian. 1246 01:10:40,120 --> 01:10:42,439 Speaker 6: He didn't go to a university, and it stood them 1247 01:10:42,479 --> 01:10:45,920 Speaker 6: in good stead. More and more people are realizing, you 1248 01:10:46,040 --> 01:10:48,200 Speaker 6: got to get something that works. And we'll be talking 1249 01:10:48,200 --> 01:10:51,120 Speaker 6: about AI when I come back after reaster. Great and 1250 01:10:51,520 --> 01:10:53,519 Speaker 6: the fear that a lot of people have, but the 1251 01:10:53,600 --> 01:10:59,719 Speaker 6: possibilities that AI opens, the possibilities that it's unfortunate term 1252 01:10:59,760 --> 01:11:03,720 Speaker 6: but creative destruction has always presented to people going to 1253 01:11:03,760 --> 01:11:07,519 Speaker 6: all the babyboard back to cavemen. Yes, that's a long 1254 01:11:07,680 --> 01:11:08,599 Speaker 6: history for that talk. 1255 01:11:09,120 --> 01:11:11,679 Speaker 2: Happy Easter to you early, Jack, look forward to next Wednesday, 1256 01:11:11,720 --> 01:11:14,960 Speaker 2: another brilliant episode of the Big Picture with Jack Avan 1257 01:11:14,960 --> 01:11:16,559 Speaker 2: and Jack Alan in best of health and loved you 1258 01:11:16,600 --> 01:11:17,960 Speaker 2: and your better half.

Coming up in seven nineteen to fifty five, 1261 01:11:23,120 --> 01:11:51,120 Speaker 2: gar see the talk station. Hey you excited about field Wednesday. 1262 01:11:52,000 --> 01:11:53,960 Speaker 2: Brian Thomas always pleaded to talk to Donovan and Neil 1263 01:11:53,960 --> 01:11:56,519 Speaker 2: for Americans for Prosperity. Hey, we got an affordability problem 1264 01:11:56,520 --> 01:11:58,920 Speaker 2: in this country. AFP knows all about it. They're launching 1265 01:11:58,960 --> 01:12:02,800 Speaker 2: a multi million dollar nationwide affordability campaign. Donald and Neil, 1266 01:12:02,800 --> 01:12:04,400 Speaker 2: welcome back to the Morning Show. It's always great having 1267 01:12:04,439 --> 01:12:06,640 Speaker 2: you on the program. 1268 01:12:06,320 --> 01:12:08,960 Speaker 1: Brian, despite being in DC, I'm gladly with you. 1269 01:12:09,200 --> 01:12:12,640 Speaker 2: I was getting ready to offer some condolences your venue. 1270 01:12:13,160 --> 01:12:15,519 Speaker 2: I don't envy you at all. Donovan, So STAF travels 1271 01:12:15,600 --> 01:12:17,120 Speaker 2: when you get out, and you might want to bring 1272 01:12:17,160 --> 01:12:19,640 Speaker 2: the American flag out when you do come, because it 1273 01:12:19,680 --> 01:12:22,280 Speaker 2: doesn't quite remember resemble America, at least that as I 1274 01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:26,720 Speaker 2: know it. Anyway, AFP's joined with the Libra Initiative and 1275 01:12:26,800 --> 01:12:30,400 Speaker 2: Concerned Veterans for America teaming up to well spread the 1276 01:12:30,439 --> 01:12:33,960 Speaker 2: love about Affordability agenda and providing some options for Americans 1277 01:12:34,000 --> 01:12:37,240 Speaker 2: to get some long term solutions to energy, housing, healthcare, 1278 01:12:37,360 --> 01:12:40,280 Speaker 2: and everything else that the people deem unaffordable. But you 1279 01:12:40,320 --> 01:12:43,559 Speaker 2: did a survey which is a real eye opener, Donovan, 1280 01:12:43,760 --> 01:12:47,280 Speaker 2: fifteen hundred registered voters. This was before the gas price 1281 01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:50,240 Speaker 2: increase brought about by the war between US and Iran. 1282 01:12:50,360 --> 01:12:52,280 Speaker 2: But I know we're all struggling with that. Donald and 1283 01:12:52,280 --> 01:12:55,720 Speaker 2: I paid four ninety nine per gallon yesterday. It was premium, 1284 01:12:55,720 --> 01:12:58,880 Speaker 2: but right across the street from here, and that's obviously 1285 01:12:58,960 --> 01:13:00,360 Speaker 2: a lot more than it used to be. So let's 1286 01:13:00,360 --> 01:13:02,680 Speaker 2: talk about the results of the survey before we dive 1287 01:13:02,720 --> 01:13:06,519 Speaker 2: on into AFP's sort of action points and how AFP 1288 01:13:06,720 --> 01:13:08,480 Speaker 2: proposes dealing with affordability. 1289 01:13:08,600 --> 01:13:13,240 Speaker 7: Donovan, Well, yeah, you know, we're we're an organization, right 1290 01:13:13,280 --> 01:13:14,840 Speaker 7: that doesn't just put our finger in the wind and 1291 01:13:14,920 --> 01:13:17,280 Speaker 7: kind of see where where things are blowing. We actually, 1292 01:13:17,320 --> 01:13:20,760 Speaker 7: you know, regularly pull you know, run these polls that 1293 01:13:21,200 --> 01:13:23,559 Speaker 7: to engauge the opinion of voters. We're out there knocking 1294 01:13:23,600 --> 01:13:25,880 Speaker 7: doors every day, Brian, as you and your listeners will know, 1295 01:13:26,320 --> 01:13:29,160 Speaker 7: to really connect with with real America, with real highlands, 1296 01:13:29,200 --> 01:13:31,800 Speaker 7: real Americans, and the message that we're bringing to Capitol 1297 01:13:31,880 --> 01:13:33,040 Speaker 7: Hills pretty straightforward. 1298 01:13:33,120 --> 01:13:37,160 Speaker 1: We've got to get our policy agenda. 1299 01:13:36,960 --> 01:13:38,880 Speaker 7: On track in this country. We are focused on the 1300 01:13:38,880 --> 01:13:41,880 Speaker 7: wrong things. The real reality actually here is we aren't 1301 01:13:41,880 --> 01:13:45,160 Speaker 7: focused on anything in this country. We've got seven different 1302 01:13:45,160 --> 01:13:48,360 Speaker 7: things distracting Congress right now. And so our message on 1303 01:13:48,360 --> 01:13:51,320 Speaker 7: affordability is, this is what the American people care about. 1304 01:13:51,400 --> 01:13:55,400 Speaker 7: The polling shows it Republican, moderate Democrat. What they want 1305 01:13:55,520 --> 01:14:00,360 Speaker 7: is lower gas prices, lower energy prices, more affordable growth trees, 1306 01:14:00,720 --> 01:14:03,400 Speaker 7: and the ability to buy a home for their healthcare, 1307 01:14:03,880 --> 01:14:06,760 Speaker 7: the simple stuff, right that makes the American dream possible. 1308 01:14:07,760 --> 01:14:09,880 Speaker 1: It's feeling like it's getting further and further away. 1309 01:14:10,200 --> 01:14:14,040 Speaker 7: And the more time Congress spends, you know, distracted by 1310 01:14:15,479 --> 01:14:17,680 Speaker 7: you know, the scroll of the day, the less time 1311 01:14:17,680 --> 01:14:20,120 Speaker 7: they're spending actually getting things done to the American people. 1312 01:14:20,120 --> 01:14:21,960 Speaker 7: That's the message of bringing to Capitol Hill. And it's 1313 01:14:21,960 --> 01:14:24,360 Speaker 7: what the pulling, you know, sort of bears out as well. 1314 01:14:24,439 --> 01:14:24,559 Speaker 6: Well. 1315 01:14:24,600 --> 01:14:26,400 Speaker 2: I think the immediate pain of the gas price increase 1316 01:14:26,479 --> 01:14:28,720 Speaker 2: is hitting everybody. And of course Donald Trump did a 1317 01:14:28,720 --> 01:14:30,880 Speaker 2: wonderful job of the all the above strategy opened a 1318 01:14:30,920 --> 01:14:34,479 Speaker 2: lot of drilling and oil and natural gas production. Things 1319 01:14:34,520 --> 01:14:36,600 Speaker 2: were going great. Price of gasoline was the lowest that 1320 01:14:36,680 --> 01:14:38,080 Speaker 2: had been in the last time. I mean, I couldn't 1321 01:14:38,080 --> 01:14:39,800 Speaker 2: remember how long it's been since we were paying like 1322 01:14:39,800 --> 01:14:42,439 Speaker 2: two dollars a gallon for gasoline. But here we are 1323 01:14:43,360 --> 01:14:46,920 Speaker 2: average in the Greater Cincinnati area is four dollars. So 1324 01:14:47,920 --> 01:14:50,200 Speaker 2: that is so you can give Trump credit for what 1325 01:14:50,240 --> 01:14:53,000 Speaker 2: it was before the war started. But then immediately people 1326 01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:54,280 Speaker 2: are going to pivot over and say, well, if Donald 1327 01:14:54,320 --> 01:14:56,320 Speaker 2: Trump hadn't started bombing round the straight of Horror, moves 1328 01:14:56,360 --> 01:14:58,200 Speaker 2: would be open and we wouldn't have to deal with 1329 01:14:58,240 --> 01:15:00,600 Speaker 2: the dollar increase in gasoline. I mean, how do you 1330 01:15:00,680 --> 01:15:04,840 Speaker 2: reconcile those seemingly contradictory realities, you know, in advocating for 1331 01:15:04,880 --> 01:15:09,280 Speaker 2: conservative principles at Donovan, Well, that's part of the message 1332 01:15:09,280 --> 01:15:09,920 Speaker 2: of bringing as well. 1333 01:15:10,000 --> 01:15:13,360 Speaker 7: Right, you know, the president has secured America, has secured 1334 01:15:13,479 --> 01:15:16,800 Speaker 7: some very important strategic and tactical victories in Iran. Right now, 1335 01:15:18,160 --> 01:15:21,040 Speaker 7: you know, our opinion is we should you know, double 1336 01:15:21,080 --> 01:15:23,439 Speaker 7: down those and then and call it and call it 1337 01:15:23,439 --> 01:15:25,160 Speaker 7: a victory and get out of there. Otherwise we're going 1338 01:15:25,160 --> 01:15:29,400 Speaker 7: to find ourselves in another endless war. You know what 1339 01:15:29,479 --> 01:15:32,679 Speaker 7: the American people elected this Republican majority to go do 1340 01:15:33,160 --> 01:15:37,160 Speaker 7: back in twenty twenty four, just what fourteen fifteen, short, short. 1341 01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:39,560 Speaker 1: Months ago was They wanted affordability. 1342 01:15:39,560 --> 01:15:41,720 Speaker 7: We saw what four years of Bidenomics looked like, right 1343 01:15:41,760 --> 01:15:45,760 Speaker 7: with record level federal spending. We saw what an unsecured 1344 01:15:45,800 --> 01:15:49,080 Speaker 7: border looked like with with you know, mass of legal immigration. 1345 01:15:49,760 --> 01:15:53,479 Speaker 7: We saw what failed energy policy looked like with high 1346 01:15:53,560 --> 01:15:56,919 Speaker 7: fuel prices. And you know, I think what the voters, 1347 01:15:57,000 --> 01:15:59,920 Speaker 7: you know, in a midterm year, the typical reaction for 1348 01:16:00,520 --> 01:16:02,320 Speaker 7: you know, the party in power, which in this case 1349 01:16:02,360 --> 01:16:05,160 Speaker 7: as Republicans, is to you know, hunker down, cover your 1350 01:16:05,200 --> 01:16:08,000 Speaker 7: head and just hope that you know, the damage isn't 1351 01:16:08,040 --> 01:16:09,880 Speaker 7: so bad that it gets to your you know, as 1352 01:16:09,960 --> 01:16:12,639 Speaker 7: if your congressman gets to your district. But the reality 1353 01:16:12,680 --> 01:16:15,000 Speaker 7: is is, like, we have the vision, we have the 1354 01:16:15,040 --> 01:16:17,519 Speaker 7: agenda President Trump landed utter a state of a Union. 1355 01:16:17,960 --> 01:16:20,160 Speaker 1: We've put out our affordability. 1356 01:16:19,520 --> 01:16:22,080 Speaker 7: Agenda that aligns very nicely with what the White House 1357 01:16:22,160 --> 01:16:26,400 Speaker 7: is advocating for and what honestly many congressional leaders say 1358 01:16:26,439 --> 01:16:29,120 Speaker 7: we need to do. The problem is sort of getting 1359 01:16:29,160 --> 01:16:30,240 Speaker 7: these ducks in a row. 1360 01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:30,519 Speaker 1: Right. 1361 01:16:30,600 --> 01:16:33,200 Speaker 7: You got four hundred and thirty five some of them 1362 01:16:33,560 --> 01:16:36,040 Speaker 7: here in the country in Congress. We've got to get 1363 01:16:36,080 --> 01:16:38,960 Speaker 7: those folks lined up, at least the Republican ones, right, 1364 01:16:39,040 --> 01:16:41,400 Speaker 7: the two hundred and eighteen or so of them, to 1365 01:16:41,560 --> 01:16:45,280 Speaker 7: go finish the things they were elected to do. Chief 1366 01:16:45,320 --> 01:16:48,640 Speaker 7: among them right now, especially with energy prices skyrocketing, is 1367 01:16:48,720 --> 01:16:50,840 Speaker 7: get it, you know, it is permitting reform like the 1368 01:16:50,880 --> 01:16:53,680 Speaker 7: Speed Act that's gonna unleash energy abundance in all in 1369 01:16:53,680 --> 01:16:54,960 Speaker 7: this country once again. 1370 01:16:54,800 --> 01:16:57,280 Speaker 2: Right, A longer term solution, which cord of the polling 1371 01:16:57,320 --> 01:17:00,400 Speaker 2: you guys did this survey you conducted voter seed bigger 1372 01:17:00,439 --> 01:17:04,840 Speaker 2: economic fixes, not short term controls, is more convincing solutions, 1373 01:17:04,840 --> 01:17:08,559 Speaker 2: so people will embrace this idea of let's say, for example, 1374 01:17:08,560 --> 01:17:10,120 Speaker 2: something I've been on a tearr on. You know, it 1375 01:17:10,360 --> 01:17:13,400 Speaker 2: may be moving forward towards small nuclear reactors, reducing the 1376 01:17:13,439 --> 01:17:16,040 Speaker 2: regulatory burden to allow them to be built more cheaper 1377 01:17:16,439 --> 01:17:19,920 Speaker 2: and more efficiently, thus bringing online some very reliable power 1378 01:17:20,000 --> 01:17:22,680 Speaker 2: without your carbon dog soil. I'll put whatever, but that 1379 01:17:22,840 --> 01:17:25,440 Speaker 2: is a longer term that's not going to be done overnight. 1380 01:17:25,520 --> 01:17:28,360 Speaker 2: But if I suppose if Americans can see some progress 1381 01:17:28,400 --> 01:17:30,680 Speaker 2: going down that road, they may see some hope at 1382 01:17:30,760 --> 01:17:32,600 Speaker 2: least that their electricity bill might go out or at 1383 01:17:32,680 --> 01:17:34,080 Speaker 2: least that their lights will stay on. 1384 01:17:36,000 --> 01:17:36,280 Speaker 8: Well. 1385 01:17:36,360 --> 01:17:39,439 Speaker 7: Absolutely, And part of that polling that we did as well, right, 1386 01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:41,600 Speaker 7: is we didn't just kind of gauge, Hey, what's the 1387 01:17:41,640 --> 01:17:43,640 Speaker 7: most important issuest to you and what do you think 1388 01:17:43,680 --> 01:17:44,400 Speaker 7: IRIS needs to do? 1389 01:17:44,600 --> 01:17:45,920 Speaker 1: You know, that's pretty straightforward point. 1390 01:17:46,200 --> 01:17:48,240 Speaker 7: We didn't took it a level deeper, right and began 1391 01:17:48,320 --> 01:17:51,480 Speaker 7: to say, hey, what do you believe as an American? 1392 01:17:52,080 --> 01:17:55,000 Speaker 1: Is you know, what reforms do you believe that an American. 1393 01:17:54,600 --> 01:17:58,520 Speaker 7: Are going to make the most impact and modernizing energy regulations, 1394 01:17:58,560 --> 01:18:00,840 Speaker 7: believe it or not, Taking law that were enacted in 1395 01:18:00,920 --> 01:18:03,320 Speaker 7: the late sixties, early seventies. 1396 01:18:03,560 --> 01:18:04,639 Speaker 1: And modernizing them. 1397 01:18:05,120 --> 01:18:09,479 Speaker 7: Heah, you know twenty twenty six people American people say like. 1398 01:18:09,520 --> 01:18:11,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's common sense stuff, right right. 1399 01:18:11,920 --> 01:18:14,960 Speaker 7: You know in Congress, common sense doesn't win the day always, 1400 01:18:15,000 --> 01:18:17,280 Speaker 7: and that's why we're here to remind them. Hey, I'm 1401 01:18:17,280 --> 01:18:21,280 Speaker 7: from Ohio. You know, we're out there talking to people. 1402 01:18:21,320 --> 01:18:23,439 Speaker 7: These are the things they want, and get at it 1403 01:18:23,479 --> 01:18:24,960 Speaker 7: and we're gonna be okay in this country. 1404 01:18:25,040 --> 01:18:26,720 Speaker 2: You know, that's a really important point to remember. A 1405 01:18:26,720 --> 01:18:29,920 Speaker 2: lot of these rigs are so old. Technology has passed 1406 01:18:29,920 --> 01:18:32,320 Speaker 2: them up, leading them making them look sort of comical 1407 01:18:32,320 --> 01:18:33,720 Speaker 2: on paper now, you know, I go back to the 1408 01:18:34,040 --> 01:18:35,920 Speaker 2: like for example, one of my favorite pet peeves the 1409 01:18:35,960 --> 01:18:37,840 Speaker 2: fifty five mile an hour speed them and now sixty 1410 01:18:37,880 --> 01:18:39,599 Speaker 2: five in a lot of places. But that was put 1411 01:18:39,600 --> 01:18:41,960 Speaker 2: in place when breaks were all drum breaks and it 1412 01:18:42,000 --> 01:18:44,000 Speaker 2: took like nine years to bring your car to a 1413 01:18:44,080 --> 01:18:46,719 Speaker 2: stop and cars weighed about ninety jillion pounds. It didn't 1414 01:18:46,720 --> 01:18:49,599 Speaker 2: have airbags and anti lock breaks. It's just a dumb rule. 1415 01:18:49,720 --> 01:18:52,080 Speaker 2: It's past its prime. That's just a little side note 1416 01:18:52,120 --> 01:18:55,120 Speaker 2: on yeah, how O, how laws and rules don't age? Well, 1417 01:18:55,240 --> 01:18:56,800 Speaker 2: I want to bring it back down some of the 1418 01:18:56,840 --> 01:18:59,360 Speaker 2: important fundings from the surveys. It turns out people are 1419 01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:04,040 Speaker 2: really really astute to where the problems come from government. 1420 01:19:04,160 --> 01:19:06,560 Speaker 2: Maybe more with Donald and O'Neil for Americans for Prosperity, 1421 01:19:06,600 --> 01:19:09,479 Speaker 2: but if you're serious about improving your shooting, what an 1422 01:19:09,479 --> 01:19:13,400 Speaker 2: important thing to know about seven forty here fifty bove 1423 01:19:13,479 --> 01:19:17,280 Speaker 2: KRCD talk station Americans for Prosperity help them help you. 1424 01:19:17,400 --> 01:19:20,920 Speaker 2: It's easy to help out with AFP and learn how to. 1425 01:19:20,960 --> 01:19:22,360 Speaker 2: Octors will tell you how to do that, give you 1426 01:19:22,360 --> 01:19:24,160 Speaker 2: the skills you need. Help out in any level. You 1427 01:19:24,200 --> 01:19:26,280 Speaker 2: can a little bit, a lot either way. We'll take 1428 01:19:26,320 --> 01:19:28,679 Speaker 2: whatever we can get. In terms of spreading the message, 1429 01:19:28,840 --> 01:19:30,880 Speaker 2: there's a better way out there, one that can lead 1430 01:19:30,880 --> 01:19:33,280 Speaker 2: to affordability. Of course, affordability a key issue, and that's 1431 01:19:33,280 --> 01:19:35,920 Speaker 2: what this survey shows. AFP did a survey with along 1432 01:19:35,920 --> 01:19:38,040 Speaker 2: with a couple of other organizations, and you know, Donovan 1433 01:19:38,040 --> 01:19:40,280 Speaker 2: and Neil, I'm really refreshed to see the results of 1434 01:19:40,280 --> 01:19:43,000 Speaker 2: the survey. People, I guess are really astute. They know 1435 01:19:43,080 --> 01:19:47,320 Speaker 2: where the fault lies, and that is basically government. I mean, 1436 01:19:47,400 --> 01:19:49,960 Speaker 2: percentage of people that believe government is making things harder 1437 01:19:50,080 --> 01:19:53,880 Speaker 2: not easier is overwhelming. Sixty one percent says government makes 1438 01:19:53,880 --> 01:19:56,839 Speaker 2: it harder rather than easier. Three quarters say government actions 1439 01:19:56,880 --> 01:19:59,800 Speaker 2: contribute to higher consumer prices. So we're not dumb as 1440 01:19:59,800 --> 01:20:03,920 Speaker 2: they take us to be. Donovan, No, that's absolutely right. 1441 01:20:04,000 --> 01:20:07,640 Speaker 7: I mean, the voters know where the problems lie, and 1442 01:20:07,680 --> 01:20:09,960 Speaker 7: I think you know that's part of the you know, 1443 01:20:10,000 --> 01:20:13,200 Speaker 7: if there's any silver lining to the last several years, 1444 01:20:14,640 --> 01:20:17,880 Speaker 7: you know, from COVID through the Bidenomics era. Is folks 1445 01:20:17,920 --> 01:20:19,960 Speaker 7: saw the impact government can have on their lives, the 1446 01:20:20,000 --> 01:20:23,400 Speaker 7: negative impact government can have on their lives, and they said, look, 1447 01:20:23,560 --> 01:20:26,439 Speaker 7: we don't need more you know, welfare programs. We don't 1448 01:20:26,520 --> 01:20:28,960 Speaker 7: need more handouts even hand ups. 1449 01:20:29,040 --> 01:20:29,200 Speaker 1: Right. 1450 01:20:29,560 --> 01:20:32,920 Speaker 7: What we want is Congress government to do the things 1451 01:20:32,920 --> 01:20:35,719 Speaker 7: it's got to do to kind of modernize the laws, 1452 01:20:36,320 --> 01:20:39,880 Speaker 7: clean up the regulatory regime, and really just empower people, right, 1453 01:20:39,960 --> 01:20:42,879 Speaker 7: create an environment where people could make their American dream possible. 1454 01:20:42,960 --> 01:20:47,400 Speaker 7: From healthcare, where we're sending money to you know, you know, 1455 01:20:47,520 --> 01:20:51,440 Speaker 7: the six largest health insurance companies through you know, Unaffordable 1456 01:20:51,439 --> 01:20:53,880 Speaker 7: Care Act subsidies, instead of doing that, how do we 1457 01:20:53,920 --> 01:20:55,360 Speaker 7: put it into health savings accounts? 1458 01:20:55,439 --> 01:20:57,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, let the money follow the people. Like this big 1459 01:20:57,560 --> 01:21:00,800 Speaker 2: trend we're all on with school choice, same thing applies. 1460 01:21:01,040 --> 01:21:04,000 Speaker 7: Well, the same with energy, right, Instead of picking winners 1461 01:21:04,000 --> 01:21:06,160 Speaker 7: and losers in the energy marketplace like we've been doing 1462 01:21:06,160 --> 01:21:09,000 Speaker 7: for twenty thirty years now, you know, picking wind and solar, 1463 01:21:09,040 --> 01:21:13,040 Speaker 7: which are fine, right, but we're picking that over baseload 1464 01:21:13,120 --> 01:21:16,280 Speaker 7: generation like your favorite nuclear and coal and oil and gas. Right, 1465 01:21:16,600 --> 01:21:18,320 Speaker 7: Instead of doing that, how about we just create an 1466 01:21:18,360 --> 01:21:21,400 Speaker 7: environment where all energy players you know, based on the 1467 01:21:21,439 --> 01:21:24,320 Speaker 7: market cost of bringing that energy to the grid. 1468 01:21:24,479 --> 01:21:27,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, get to get to decide, right, But yeah, how. 1469 01:21:27,439 --> 01:21:31,400 Speaker 2: About yeah, our FP submit us an energy proposal to 1470 01:21:31,479 --> 01:21:34,320 Speaker 2: those who can provide energy, submit your proposal for energy. 1471 01:21:34,439 --> 01:21:36,439 Speaker 2: We will judge it on its merits. The best way 1472 01:21:36,479 --> 01:21:38,840 Speaker 2: to go is what what does your RFP say, how 1473 01:21:38,920 --> 01:21:40,680 Speaker 2: much can your windmill generate? If that's the way you 1474 01:21:40,720 --> 01:21:42,640 Speaker 2: want to go compared to say, somebody else, you might 1475 01:21:42,680 --> 01:21:47,080 Speaker 2: go with more traditional power generation methodologies like natural gas, coal, nuclear, whatever. 1476 01:21:47,560 --> 01:21:51,320 Speaker 2: So if one is obviously better than the other, then 1477 01:21:51,360 --> 01:21:53,479 Speaker 2: you go with the one that's better. That's not bad. 1478 01:21:53,479 --> 01:21:55,799 Speaker 2: That way everybody compete. But we all know that without 1479 01:21:56,080 --> 01:22:00,680 Speaker 2: subsidies from the government, solar and wind can't compete in 1480 01:22:00,800 --> 01:22:03,240 Speaker 2: terms of volume of power and reliability of power. 1481 01:22:04,439 --> 01:22:05,439 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1482 01:22:05,080 --> 01:22:08,200 Speaker 7: Yeah, well, and that's the you know, to put a 1483 01:22:08,280 --> 01:22:11,240 Speaker 7: you know, underlying bold and put an acclamation mark on it. 1484 01:22:11,320 --> 01:22:13,559 Speaker 7: That's that's what the American people want, right is getting 1485 01:22:13,560 --> 01:22:16,439 Speaker 7: government out of the way. They believe government makes things harder, 1486 01:22:16,600 --> 01:22:20,120 Speaker 7: not easier. And you know, Congress has a number of 1487 01:22:20,120 --> 01:22:21,800 Speaker 7: bills and number of things they can do right now 1488 01:22:21,840 --> 01:22:24,360 Speaker 7: today if they have the willpower to do it and 1489 01:22:24,520 --> 01:22:26,280 Speaker 7: set it to the President's desk for signature that we 1490 01:22:26,479 --> 01:22:27,519 Speaker 7: get government out of the way. 1491 01:22:28,360 --> 01:22:29,640 Speaker 1: We just got to get them on track to do 1492 01:22:29,720 --> 01:22:30,400 Speaker 1: it well. 1493 01:22:30,439 --> 01:22:32,080 Speaker 2: And one of the examples you pointed out in the 1494 01:22:32,080 --> 01:22:34,320 Speaker 2: materials about what we can do and a great illustration 1495 01:22:34,360 --> 01:22:36,160 Speaker 2: of the problem that you and I are talking about, 1496 01:22:36,200 --> 01:22:38,000 Speaker 2: you know, on a ten thousand foot level, on a 1497 01:22:38,040 --> 01:22:41,960 Speaker 2: specific level, and going back to the not short term fixes, 1498 01:22:42,000 --> 01:22:45,880 Speaker 2: but longer term solutions. Recently, I think it was the 1499 01:22:45,920 --> 01:22:49,120 Speaker 2: Donald Trump suspended the Jones Act in order to bring 1500 01:22:49,120 --> 01:22:53,320 Speaker 2: about greater shipping. Now, the Jones Act forces the the 1501 01:22:53,560 --> 01:22:56,200 Speaker 2: US ports to only carry goods be only carried on 1502 01:22:56,280 --> 01:22:59,400 Speaker 2: vessels that are built, owned and crewed by Americans. Donovan, 1503 01:22:59,400 --> 01:23:01,519 Speaker 2: I don't even know the make ships in America anymore. 1504 01:23:01,520 --> 01:23:03,960 Speaker 2: It's kind of an offshore problem with that. So that 1505 01:23:04,160 --> 01:23:07,439 Speaker 2: really increases the cost of shipping just getting rid of that. 1506 01:23:07,520 --> 01:23:09,720 Speaker 2: And Donald Trump demonstrated that, well, we're gonna wave that 1507 01:23:09,760 --> 01:23:11,880 Speaker 2: for a while to get through these problems. Waving it 1508 01:23:11,920 --> 01:23:14,960 Speaker 2: reduces prices. Same thing goes with just the other day 1509 01:23:14,960 --> 01:23:17,439 Speaker 2: he said he's gonna wave the summer gas rules as 1510 01:23:17,479 --> 01:23:20,360 Speaker 2: soon as today. Summer gas rules which make you remix 1511 01:23:20,640 --> 01:23:23,280 Speaker 2: to reduce smog in the summertime that increases the price 1512 01:23:23,320 --> 01:23:26,080 Speaker 2: of gasoline. Look, how about a long term fix, just 1513 01:23:26,120 --> 01:23:28,000 Speaker 2: get rid of the damn thing. So there's two things 1514 01:23:28,080 --> 01:23:31,040 Speaker 2: right there, quick solutions which will provide long term relief. 1515 01:23:32,720 --> 01:23:33,800 Speaker 1: Oh absolutely, you know. 1516 01:23:33,840 --> 01:23:36,800 Speaker 7: And again, you know a lot of these laws, all 1517 01:23:36,840 --> 01:23:39,439 Speaker 7: of these laws get enacted because somebody feels like it's 1518 01:23:39,439 --> 01:23:42,320 Speaker 7: gonna make things better, right, or trying to solve some problem, 1519 01:23:42,360 --> 01:23:46,200 Speaker 7: But they don't count among that are the downstream effects 1520 01:23:46,280 --> 01:23:48,880 Speaker 7: of the you know, these top down policy making out 1521 01:23:48,880 --> 01:23:51,439 Speaker 7: of Washington, DC. You know, kudos to the President Trump 1522 01:23:51,439 --> 01:23:54,000 Speaker 7: for identifying the Jones Act, right, especially, you know, if 1523 01:23:54,000 --> 01:23:56,960 Speaker 7: we're gonna be involved in a protracted conflict in the 1524 01:23:57,000 --> 01:23:59,680 Speaker 7: Middle East and we're gonna tie our hands with some 1525 01:23:59,760 --> 01:24:03,800 Speaker 7: arb tray laws like the Jones Act that make it 1526 01:24:03,840 --> 01:24:06,439 Speaker 7: harder to get products, goods, and services moves around this 1527 01:24:06,479 --> 01:24:07,759 Speaker 7: country or into this country. 1528 01:24:09,479 --> 01:24:11,439 Speaker 1: Good all the President for you know, putting that Jones 1529 01:24:11,479 --> 01:24:11,840 Speaker 1: Act down. 1530 01:24:11,840 --> 01:24:13,400 Speaker 7: But again, we don't want to do it, if you know, 1531 01:24:13,439 --> 01:24:15,400 Speaker 7: if it's good, right, if we saw this during COVID too, 1532 01:24:15,400 --> 01:24:18,400 Speaker 7: with so many weird healthcare rules, right, like, hey, you 1533 01:24:18,439 --> 01:24:20,760 Speaker 7: can't you can't get a prescription unless you go in 1534 01:24:20,800 --> 01:24:23,200 Speaker 7: and have the doctor see you. Right, you pay for that, 1535 01:24:23,360 --> 01:24:25,280 Speaker 7: or you can't you know, go see a doctor to 1536 01:24:25,320 --> 01:24:27,800 Speaker 7: get a you know, a medicine if you've got the flu, 1537 01:24:28,200 --> 01:24:29,040 Speaker 7: like tell amedicine. 1538 01:24:29,080 --> 01:24:29,160 Speaker 1: Right. 1539 01:24:29,200 --> 01:24:33,080 Speaker 7: Well, we saw the silliness of these arbitrary rules that 1540 01:24:33,120 --> 01:24:37,760 Speaker 7: were put into place to force people's behaviors. You know, 1541 01:24:38,000 --> 01:24:40,519 Speaker 7: we got rid of them. Jones Act is another example 1542 01:24:40,520 --> 01:24:42,679 Speaker 7: of that. We can get rid of that today. Let's 1543 01:24:42,720 --> 01:24:46,360 Speaker 7: not just good just to pause it temporarily, but like 1544 01:24:46,960 --> 01:24:50,160 Speaker 7: Congress could go act today, remove the Jones Act and 1545 01:24:50,280 --> 01:24:53,679 Speaker 7: make make shipping and the access to goods and services 1546 01:24:53,680 --> 01:24:57,360 Speaker 7: in this country much much more easier if again, if 1547 01:24:57,360 --> 01:24:58,920 Speaker 7: they get focused on the right mission. 1548 01:24:59,240 --> 01:25:03,599 Speaker 2: Well, and by overwhelming numbers, voters believe government actions well 1549 01:25:04,160 --> 01:25:08,880 Speaker 2: raise consumer prices. And overwhelmingly they say government regulations specifically 1550 01:25:08,880 --> 01:25:11,000 Speaker 2: increased costs. And one of the illustrations you provided in 1551 01:25:11,000 --> 01:25:14,240 Speaker 2: your materials with AFP is the bullet that we dodged 1552 01:25:14,560 --> 01:25:16,200 Speaker 2: coming out of the US Department of Energy. They were 1553 01:25:16,200 --> 01:25:19,520 Speaker 2: proposing that rule that altered the standards for commercial refrigerators 1554 01:25:19,520 --> 01:25:21,439 Speaker 2: and freezers, like they've done with so many other things. Oh, 1555 01:25:21,439 --> 01:25:23,000 Speaker 2: you're going to shave a little bit of money over 1556 01:25:23,000 --> 01:25:24,479 Speaker 2: the years. This is going to keep x amount of 1557 01:25:24,479 --> 01:25:26,360 Speaker 2: carbon out of the atmosphere, But the price of the 1558 01:25:26,439 --> 01:25:27,680 Speaker 2: damn thing's going to go up. And you got to 1559 01:25:27,680 --> 01:25:30,960 Speaker 2: rely on the grid because everything's electric. Nobody wanted that, 1560 01:25:31,640 --> 01:25:34,320 Speaker 2: and fortunately it didn't go into effect, but clearly the 1561 01:25:34,360 --> 01:25:36,880 Speaker 2: price of these specific appliance was going to increase. And 1562 01:25:36,920 --> 01:25:38,720 Speaker 2: because electricity has gone through the roof for a lot 1563 01:25:38,760 --> 01:25:41,000 Speaker 2: of reasons we've talked about this morning, the price of 1564 01:25:41,040 --> 01:25:43,759 Speaker 2: operating it's going to go up, So no net savings overall. 1565 01:25:43,840 --> 01:25:46,519 Speaker 2: And gee, what is the elimination of carbon from a 1566 01:25:46,600 --> 01:25:49,439 Speaker 2: dryer going to do for the planet given the naturally 1567 01:25:49,479 --> 01:25:53,160 Speaker 2: occurring phenomena like a wildfire of volcano Negate, all of 1568 01:25:53,280 --> 01:25:55,919 Speaker 2: human efforts to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. 1569 01:25:55,960 --> 01:26:00,559 Speaker 7: Donovan and Neil, Well, well absolutely know what I would 1570 01:26:00,640 --> 01:26:02,400 Speaker 7: say to that, and the message we're bringing the Capitol 1571 01:26:02,439 --> 01:26:04,320 Speaker 7: Hill today as we go and have these meetings throughout 1572 01:26:04,320 --> 01:26:07,000 Speaker 7: the day to day and tomorrow is going to be Look, 1573 01:26:07,280 --> 01:26:12,519 Speaker 7: you know, congressmen, you worked your district, You've knocked doors, 1574 01:26:12,560 --> 01:26:15,720 Speaker 7: you've met with constituents, You've been on record saying the 1575 01:26:15,760 --> 01:26:18,320 Speaker 7: things that we need to get done. We've got two 1576 01:26:18,360 --> 01:26:21,120 Speaker 7: opportunities this year, right in a midterm election year. Either 1577 01:26:21,160 --> 01:26:23,840 Speaker 7: we can you know, you can hunker down, take the 1578 01:26:23,920 --> 01:26:28,760 Speaker 7: losses and potentially lose the majority, in which case, you know, 1579 01:26:28,960 --> 01:26:31,720 Speaker 7: the last two years of President Trump's administration a very 1580 01:26:31,760 --> 01:26:35,679 Speaker 7: severe lame duck. Or you know, you can follow through 1581 01:26:35,720 --> 01:26:38,560 Speaker 7: one of the things you know, just as an American 1582 01:26:38,600 --> 01:26:42,080 Speaker 7: citizen need to happen in this country that Republicans have 1583 01:26:42,200 --> 01:26:46,679 Speaker 7: the majority to act on today. And you know, worst case, 1584 01:26:47,200 --> 01:26:50,400 Speaker 7: you know, trends continue like they do and Democrats take 1585 01:26:50,400 --> 01:26:52,040 Speaker 7: control of Washington and Congress. 1586 01:26:52,640 --> 01:26:55,759 Speaker 1: But along that path, we made good things happen. 1587 01:26:55,840 --> 01:26:58,960 Speaker 7: We fixed the problems that so many people have, you know, 1588 01:26:59,080 --> 01:27:00,599 Speaker 7: kicked the proverbial can down. 1589 01:27:00,479 --> 01:27:03,280 Speaker 1: The road on that we know will work. 1590 01:27:03,320 --> 01:27:04,960 Speaker 7: And by the way, I think, Brian, if we go 1591 01:27:05,080 --> 01:27:07,720 Speaker 7: do those things, your organizations like our is going to 1592 01:27:07,760 --> 01:27:10,000 Speaker 7: be out there advocating and reminding folks.

Let them know you want to see them 1616 01:28:07,240 --> 01:28:08,120 Speaker 1: put it into action. 1617 01:28:08,120 --> 01:28:11,320 Speaker 2: Easy action item for people to accomplish without even Hey, 1618 01:28:11,360 --> 01:28:13,240 Speaker 2: don't hang your hat on it. But things looked at 1619 01:28:13,360 --> 01:28:15,560 Speaker 2: least pretty decent in oral argument just in front of 1620 01:28:15,560 --> 01:28:17,760 Speaker 2: the Supreme Court. A group of thirteen asylum seekers fought 1621 01:28:17,760 --> 01:28:21,800 Speaker 2: a suit back in twenty seventeen challenging the policy called metering. 1622 01:28:22,680 --> 01:28:22,840 Speaker 1: Now. 1623 01:28:22,880 --> 01:28:25,680 Speaker 2: Metering is where border agents in the United States, primarily 1624 01:28:25,720 --> 01:28:29,440 Speaker 2: ports of entry, turn away asylum seekers to avoid overcrowding. 1625 01:28:31,160 --> 01:28:34,759 Speaker 2: Federal law says that any alien who is physically present 1626 01:28:35,120 --> 01:28:38,320 Speaker 2: in the United States or who arrives in the United 1627 01:28:38,360 --> 01:28:43,080 Speaker 2: States may apply for asylum may regardless of legal status. 1628 01:28:43,800 --> 01:28:47,200 Speaker 2: So the planners are arguing that just showing up at 1629 01:28:47,200 --> 01:28:52,320 Speaker 2: the border is complies with that. In the United States argument, 1630 01:28:53,160 --> 01:28:55,200 Speaker 2: Sam Belita says, do you think someone who comes in 1631 01:28:55,280 --> 01:28:57,280 Speaker 2: the front door of a house and knocks at the 1632 01:28:57,280 --> 01:29:03,479 Speaker 2: door has arrived in the house? Great question, Sam, Metering 1633 01:29:03,600 --> 01:29:06,120 Speaker 2: in case you think this is some evil Trumpian proposition 1634 01:29:06,280 --> 01:29:07,920 Speaker 2: started under who do you think? 1635 01:29:08,439 --> 01:29:08,639 Speaker 1: Right? 1636 01:29:08,680 --> 01:29:11,880 Speaker 2: Barack Obama and continued until it was resented by Joe 1637 01:29:11,880 --> 01:29:15,519 Speaker 2: Biden in twenty twenty one, although the administration, the Biden 1638 01:29:15,520 --> 01:29:19,479 Speaker 2: administration can continued to defend the legality of metering in court. 1639 01:29:19,680 --> 01:29:22,519 Speaker 2: So not doing it, but we say we can do it, 1640 01:29:22,680 --> 01:29:24,519 Speaker 2: providing them with a measure of flexibility should they need 1641 01:29:24,560 --> 01:29:27,800 Speaker 2: metering again. Soum seekers argue the policy violate of the 1642 01:29:27,800 --> 01:29:31,360 Speaker 2: Immigration Nationality Act, which requires immigration officers to inspect quote 1643 01:29:31,360 --> 01:29:36,040 Speaker 2: an alien present in the United States who has not 1644 01:29:36,040 --> 01:29:38,519 Speaker 2: been admitted or who arrives in the United States. See 1645 01:29:38,520 --> 01:29:40,680 Speaker 2: I keep emphasizing the word in because if you're not 1646 01:29:40,760 --> 01:29:42,280 Speaker 2: at the front or if you're at the front door, 1647 01:29:42,360 --> 01:29:45,880 Speaker 2: you ain't in the house, sam Alito. So of course 1648 01:29:46,200 --> 01:29:48,800 Speaker 2: the liberal justices tend to push back on that. But 1649 01:29:49,920 --> 01:29:51,760 Speaker 2: if history is any guid given the makeup of the court, 1650 01:29:51,800 --> 01:29:55,200 Speaker 2: we may get some resolution on that very important issue. 1651 01:29:55,520 --> 01:29:56,240 Speaker 1: Wait for it. 1652 01:29:56,240 --> 01:29:59,759 Speaker 2: It'll be out in several months, presumably seven point fifty six. 1653 01:30:00,160 --> 01:30:02,639 Speaker 2: Don't have to wait for him.

They did a survey 1681 01:31:15,840 --> 01:31:19,519 Speaker 2: of young people and really disturbing to find out that 1682 01:31:19,600 --> 01:31:23,000 Speaker 2: the very substantial majority of young people, say age twenty 1683 01:31:23,040 --> 01:31:26,160 Speaker 2: to thirty five, or whatever. Young From my standpoint, anyway, 1684 01:31:26,160 --> 01:31:28,759 Speaker 2: I think that socialism is a great thing. Like sixty 1685 01:31:28,760 --> 01:31:31,840 Speaker 2: five seventy percent say socialism is a better way than 1686 01:31:31,880 --> 01:31:35,160 Speaker 2: I guess capitalism. About thirty five percent, if I'm remembering 1687 01:31:35,200 --> 01:31:39,160 Speaker 2: the figures correctly, in that survey, said communism. They embrace 1688 01:31:39,200 --> 01:31:42,719 Speaker 2: communism as well. I don't know where this comes from, 1689 01:31:42,800 --> 01:31:44,760 Speaker 2: because I try to view things through the lens of 1690 01:31:44,800 --> 01:31:48,599 Speaker 2: common sense and reason, and I find the old concept 1691 01:31:48,600 --> 01:31:52,439 Speaker 2: of socialism not only offensive conceptually, but if I bother 1692 01:31:52,600 --> 01:31:56,320 Speaker 2: to look back in history, a failed effort every time 1693 01:31:56,479 --> 01:31:58,360 Speaker 2: it's been tried. How in the hell is it that 1694 01:31:58,400 --> 01:31:59,519 Speaker 2: so many people think it's the right. 1695 01:31:59,439 --> 01:31:59,760 Speaker 1: Way to go. 1696 01:32:02,200 --> 01:32:05,880 Speaker 8: Well, it's because of our educational system. And I know 1697 01:32:05,960 --> 01:32:08,800 Speaker 8: this will raise people's eyebrows and they'll wonder, well, that 1698 01:32:08,840 --> 01:32:12,880 Speaker 8: can't be happening at my Forest Hill School district, or 1699 01:32:13,280 --> 01:32:18,000 Speaker 8: Lakota or Mason or Batavia. But yes it is, and 1700 01:32:18,040 --> 01:32:21,320 Speaker 8: it's been actually a plan that started about one hundred 1701 01:32:21,400 --> 01:32:24,800 Speaker 8: years ago, and it's indisputable. Really. So that's going to 1702 01:32:24,840 --> 01:32:27,880 Speaker 8: be about a fourth of my talk tonight, bouncing off 1703 01:32:27,960 --> 01:32:30,080 Speaker 8: of the survey. I'll give you I've got it right here, 1704 01:32:30,080 --> 01:32:32,240 Speaker 8: and I'll go to survey right here in front of me. 1705 01:32:32,560 --> 01:32:39,080 Speaker 8: So here's what happened, was the socialist plan really didn't. 1706 01:32:39,160 --> 01:32:42,520 Speaker 8: It took them like sixty years to get it embedded 1707 01:32:42,520 --> 01:32:46,599 Speaker 8: in our school system, but by nineteen eighty it had 1708 01:32:46,640 --> 01:32:50,840 Speaker 8: been so baby boomers an older right now, they have 1709 01:32:50,880 --> 01:32:54,360 Speaker 8: a positive Their positive image of socialism is twenty four 1710 01:32:54,439 --> 01:32:58,880 Speaker 8: percent capitalism sixty three, so it's a three to one ratio. 1711 01:32:59,400 --> 01:33:02,920 Speaker 8: Capitalism them beat socialism. But if you go to the 1712 01:33:03,040 --> 01:33:07,080 Speaker 8: youngest people ages eighteen to twenty eight, it's about even 1713 01:33:07,400 --> 01:33:12,200 Speaker 8: fifty five percent have a positive view of socialism fifty 1714 01:33:12,240 --> 01:33:16,120 Speaker 8: seven percent capitalism, which is a little bit puzzling. But yeah, people, 1715 01:33:16,320 --> 01:33:18,320 Speaker 8: I guess they think, well, a little bit of each 1716 01:33:18,439 --> 01:33:18,880 Speaker 8: is okay. 1717 01:33:19,080 --> 01:33:22,000 Speaker 2: Well with tomic let me interject real quick. Let me 1718 01:33:22,040 --> 01:33:25,640 Speaker 2: just interject real quick. Without capitalism, there can be no socialism. 1719 01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:31,840 Speaker 8: That's well the socialist Lifalin, Styalin and and China has 1720 01:33:31,880 --> 01:33:33,120 Speaker 8: figured that out, haven't they. 1721 01:33:33,200 --> 01:33:33,880 Speaker 1: Yes, they have. 1722 01:33:34,080 --> 01:33:38,519 Speaker 8: They have elements of private of free markets. Elements of 1723 01:33:38,600 --> 01:33:40,120 Speaker 8: free markets. 1724 01:33:40,400 --> 01:33:44,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, like the green energy equipment they sell us while 1725 01:33:44,240 --> 01:33:47,760 Speaker 2: they build coal plants, laughing, while they sell us a 1726 01:33:47,800 --> 01:33:50,400 Speaker 2: bill of goods that they have perpetuated in social media 1727 01:33:50,439 --> 01:33:51,000 Speaker 2: and elsewhere. 1728 01:33:52,080 --> 01:33:54,040 Speaker 8: If you look at the other age practice. I'm not 1729 01:33:54,080 --> 01:33:57,520 Speaker 8: going to get into the you know, the eye glazing 1730 01:33:58,040 --> 01:34:06,559 Speaker 8: detail numbers, but generation by generation it's been progressively as people, 1731 01:34:06,720 --> 01:34:09,800 Speaker 8: as people younger people have gone have been more and 1732 01:34:09,840 --> 01:34:12,760 Speaker 8: more exposed to the system, and it's gotten worse over 1733 01:34:12,800 --> 01:34:17,000 Speaker 8: the years. Socialism goes from twenty four to twenty seven 1734 01:34:17,080 --> 01:34:21,160 Speaker 8: to thirty seven to fifty five percent. It's our school systems, Brian, 1735 01:34:21,360 --> 01:34:25,240 Speaker 8: and it's your I'm telling people out there, your kids, 1736 01:34:25,320 --> 01:34:30,760 Speaker 8: your grandkids, it's their school system that you probably you know, 1737 01:34:30,880 --> 01:34:33,519 Speaker 8: love going to the games, and you went there and 1738 01:34:33,560 --> 01:34:36,719 Speaker 8: you just think it's great. It's subtle, but it's there, 1739 01:34:36,880 --> 01:34:41,000 Speaker 8: and it starts in pre school, literally starts in pre 1740 01:34:41,160 --> 01:34:42,440 Speaker 8: school propaganda. 1741 01:34:43,280 --> 01:34:48,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, Tom propaganda, this whole idea of pre k education, 1742 01:34:48,320 --> 01:34:51,519 Speaker 2: incorporating that into the public education system, that you're going 1743 01:34:51,520 --> 01:34:53,960 Speaker 2: to bring your little babies in and have them, you know, 1744 01:34:54,120 --> 01:34:55,840 Speaker 2: I think about suffering the children to come unto me. 1745 01:34:55,920 --> 01:34:57,960 Speaker 2: You can teach little children that Santa Claus is a 1746 01:34:58,000 --> 01:35:02,000 Speaker 2: real thing.

This idea 1769 01:36:13,280 --> 01:36:16,479 Speaker 2: of school choice embraced widely among many and who would 1770 01:36:16,520 --> 01:36:18,439 Speaker 2: be who would be against it? This is one of 1771 01:36:18,479 --> 01:36:20,439 Speaker 2: the reasons many people want to go with school choice. 1772 01:36:20,479 --> 01:36:23,280 Speaker 2: I don't want my child being indoctrinated, you. 1773 01:36:23,240 --> 01:36:27,679 Speaker 8: Know, yeah, right right, Well we're what we're up against 1774 01:36:27,920 --> 01:36:30,840 Speaker 8: is a very powerful union, very powerful union that the 1775 01:36:30,840 --> 01:36:36,480 Speaker 8: Republicans are scared about. The ANA, the National Education Association 1776 01:36:36,600 --> 01:36:42,839 Speaker 8: in Ohio it's the OEA Ohio Education Association, and and 1777 01:36:43,000 --> 01:36:47,000 Speaker 8: all the teachers' unions in your local school district. The 1778 01:36:47,520 --> 01:36:51,639 Speaker 8: union who runs the school districts. The teachers' unions they 1779 01:36:51,720 --> 01:36:54,400 Speaker 8: run it. It's not the board, it's not the board, 1780 01:36:55,080 --> 01:36:58,840 Speaker 8: it's not even the superintendent really runs it. But the 1781 01:36:58,880 --> 01:37:03,559 Speaker 8: superintendent he doesn't. He wants an easy life. And if 1782 01:37:03,560 --> 01:37:07,479 Speaker 8: he fights the teachers union very much at all, he's 1783 01:37:07,520 --> 01:37:11,080 Speaker 8: gonna have a rough way to go. Well, the teachers 1784 01:37:11,160 --> 01:37:12,719 Speaker 8: unions run the school districts. 1785 01:37:12,960 --> 01:37:15,000 Speaker 2: But you'd think, I mean, at minimum, you think the 1786 01:37:15,040 --> 01:37:17,160 Speaker 2: teachers union, and I think this is exactly what they stand, 1787 01:37:17,479 --> 01:37:20,439 Speaker 2: what they want. They they're there for themselves. Like all unions, 1788 01:37:20,439 --> 01:37:22,639 Speaker 2: it's for the workers who are part of the union, 1789 01:37:22,680 --> 01:37:24,920 Speaker 2: but the teachers union goes beyond that. They are a 1790 01:37:25,040 --> 01:37:30,200 Speaker 2: political organization and they embrace as a union platform. Basically 1791 01:37:30,200 --> 01:37:32,919 Speaker 2: this political ideology which you and I find so offensive, 1792 01:37:32,960 --> 01:37:36,280 Speaker 2: which is making our children idiots. So I know, and 1793 01:37:36,439 --> 01:37:37,840 Speaker 2: you say, you know, there's a teachers union, there's some 1794 01:37:37,920 --> 01:37:40,160 Speaker 2: teachers out there that my listening audience going, that's not me, 1795 01:37:40,640 --> 01:37:43,200 Speaker 2: it's not me. Yeah, but if you're a member of 1796 01:37:43,200 --> 01:37:45,960 Speaker 2: that union, it really is. And they're doing something that 1797 01:37:46,040 --> 01:37:50,400 Speaker 2: you personally reject philosophically and politically, and yet there they are. 1798 01:37:50,800 --> 01:37:53,760 Speaker 2: So I don't know how they have been given so 1799 01:37:53,880 --> 01:37:56,320 Speaker 2: much power and where the fear comes from. I mean, 1800 01:37:56,360 --> 01:37:57,920 Speaker 2: we've got a lot of arguments to make that the 1801 01:37:57,920 --> 01:38:01,120 Speaker 2: teachers unions, the teachers themselves, are not educating our children. 1802 01:38:01,120 --> 01:38:02,800 Speaker 2: Look at the class scores. Look at this. I mean, 1803 01:38:02,840 --> 01:38:07,120 Speaker 2: the small percentages of children in eighth grade cannot perform 1804 01:38:07,200 --> 01:38:10,200 Speaker 2: bath or read on a basic, fundamental eighth grade level. 1805 01:38:10,760 --> 01:38:13,040 Speaker 2: That is the result of the people who are teaching 1806 01:38:13,080 --> 01:38:14,479 Speaker 2: your children. Know that you don't want to be in 1807 01:38:14,479 --> 01:38:17,799 Speaker 2: that environment. Then, and pile on top of that ineffective education, 1808 01:38:18,160 --> 01:38:20,639 Speaker 2: you also have indoctrination going along with it. I guess 1809 01:38:20,680 --> 01:38:23,040 Speaker 2: it's a lot easier to teach your children about socialism 1810 01:38:23,080 --> 01:38:25,000 Speaker 2: than it is about how to add two and two. 1811 01:38:26,360 --> 01:38:30,920 Speaker 8: Well, apparently they're doing a really good job. Well, hey, 1812 01:38:31,240 --> 01:38:35,519 Speaker 8: it looks like they're accomplishing their purpose. It's a political end, 1813 01:38:35,800 --> 01:38:39,599 Speaker 8: is what they're trying to do, and they're succeeding with that. 1814 01:38:39,760 --> 01:38:44,400 Speaker 8: Whether the child can actually you know, use math and 1815 01:38:44,479 --> 01:38:47,679 Speaker 8: read and everything, that's secondary. If they get that, that's fine. 1816 01:38:47,680 --> 01:38:50,559 Speaker 8: If not, at least they're going to be good loyal 1817 01:38:51,520 --> 01:38:53,800 Speaker 8: socialist social democrats. 1818 01:38:53,880 --> 01:38:57,360 Speaker 2: And Tom, who would be who is more likely to 1819 01:38:57,400 --> 01:38:59,840 Speaker 2: be dependent upon a government and who would be more 1820 01:38:59,880 --> 01:39:04,440 Speaker 2: likely to embrace socialism recognizing that wealth will be redistributed 1821 01:39:04,479 --> 01:39:07,799 Speaker 2: into their pockets Someone who is dumb and not capable 1822 01:39:07,800 --> 01:39:09,759 Speaker 2: of taking care of himself. Tom, So, if you produce 1823 01:39:09,840 --> 01:39:11,720 Speaker 2: really idiot kids don't know how to read, don't know 1824 01:39:11,760 --> 01:39:14,680 Speaker 2: how to perform mathematical calculations, you may have created a 1825 01:39:14,720 --> 01:39:17,680 Speaker 2: government dependent who will of course embrace socialism. 1826 01:39:18,640 --> 01:39:22,280 Speaker 8: Yep, that looks pretty It looks like they've been pretty successful. 1827 01:39:22,360 --> 01:39:22,840 Speaker 1: Yes they have. 1828 01:39:23,920 --> 01:39:25,479 Speaker 2: I got to go back to your point earlier. The 1829 01:39:25,600 --> 01:39:29,280 Speaker 2: predicate for this movement, in this push to indoctrinate our children, 1830 01:39:29,280 --> 01:39:30,960 Speaker 2: you said, started about one hundred years ago. Can you 1831 01:39:31,040 --> 01:39:32,360 Speaker 2: just put I know you're going to do it in 1832 01:39:32,400 --> 01:39:35,000 Speaker 2: depth tonight at the Empower Use sevenar beginning at seven pm. 1833 01:39:35,040 --> 01:39:36,559 Speaker 2: But can you just put a little more flesh on 1834 01:39:36,600 --> 01:39:38,840 Speaker 2: the bones of that statement. I'm wildly curious enough. 1835 01:39:39,720 --> 01:39:42,599 Speaker 8: Yes I can, Yes, I can hold on just a second. 1836 01:39:42,800 --> 01:39:44,240 Speaker 1: Fine, all right. 1837 01:39:44,360 --> 01:39:50,280 Speaker 8: So yeah, So about from the nineteen hundred to nineteen twenties, 1838 01:39:51,040 --> 01:39:55,760 Speaker 8: the progressives really got some power, and you know, they 1839 01:39:55,800 --> 01:40:00,080 Speaker 8: had socialist principles. They weren't necessarily progressive, but they he 1840 01:40:00,240 --> 01:40:02,360 Speaker 8: sort of really got a lot more power in the 1841 01:40:02,400 --> 01:40:06,160 Speaker 8: school systems. And then from the twenties to the forties, 1842 01:40:06,280 --> 01:40:10,760 Speaker 8: the Marxists came in and actually John Dewey's called the 1843 01:40:10,800 --> 01:40:16,559 Speaker 8: father of American modern American education, and nobody would dispute 1844 01:40:16,560 --> 01:40:20,160 Speaker 8: that he had a bunch of American educators actually traveled 1845 01:40:20,200 --> 01:40:24,439 Speaker 8: to Stalin's Russia in the late nineteen twenties to study 1846 01:40:24,479 --> 01:40:28,759 Speaker 8: the Russian education system, and you know, they came back 1847 01:40:28,840 --> 01:40:33,240 Speaker 8: and they thought this was great. Their view basically was 1848 01:40:33,320 --> 01:40:38,479 Speaker 8: that capitalism was dead and we needed to train young 1849 01:40:38,560 --> 01:40:43,680 Speaker 8: people for the news for a new future, which is socialism. 1850 01:40:43,760 --> 01:40:46,479 Speaker 8: And so that was the basis for their trying to 1851 01:40:46,520 --> 01:40:52,000 Speaker 8: redesign the American education system. It was centered to Columbia University, 1852 01:40:52,040 --> 01:40:57,360 Speaker 8: which is sort of the go to ivy for for teachers, 1853 01:40:57,640 --> 01:40:59,680 Speaker 8: and so they were able to train a lot of 1854 01:40:59,720 --> 01:41:04,320 Speaker 8: teacher there, college professors there who went out too. And 1855 01:41:04,400 --> 01:41:08,160 Speaker 8: this was not a this was not a conspiracy. It 1856 01:41:08,280 --> 01:41:11,080 Speaker 8: was just a common belief that they all had that 1857 01:41:11,160 --> 01:41:15,439 Speaker 8: this was something good to work for. So those college 1858 01:41:15,479 --> 01:41:20,080 Speaker 8: teachers that train teachers, they went out to universities all 1859 01:41:20,120 --> 01:41:23,240 Speaker 8: over the United States. And you know, it took this 1860 01:41:23,400 --> 01:41:26,640 Speaker 8: project about forty years. It wasn't until the sixties that 1861 01:41:26,760 --> 01:41:30,000 Speaker 8: they really embedded in the city school systems. In the 1862 01:41:30,080 --> 01:41:33,559 Speaker 8: seventies they were able to get out into the suburban 1863 01:41:33,600 --> 01:41:37,200 Speaker 8: school systems, and by nineteen eighties they were actually out 1864 01:41:37,240 --> 01:41:41,000 Speaker 8: in the rural systems. The Bataviors and the Blanchesters of 1865 01:41:41,040 --> 01:41:44,400 Speaker 8: the world. Believe it or not, you know it's subtle. 1866 01:41:44,680 --> 01:41:47,880 Speaker 8: But if you look at the curriculums, and if you 1867 01:41:47,960 --> 01:41:52,559 Speaker 8: roll forward to no Child Left Behind with George Bush, 1868 01:41:52,760 --> 01:41:55,439 Speaker 8: I've made a deal with Ted Kennedy, you know that 1869 01:41:55,439 --> 01:41:57,200 Speaker 8: couldn't have worked out well. 1870 01:41:57,280 --> 01:41:57,719 Speaker 4: Right. 1871 01:41:57,840 --> 01:42:02,400 Speaker 8: Then in nineteen ten, they put in, oh gosh, I'm 1872 01:42:02,439 --> 01:42:06,080 Speaker 8: forgetting the name of it, oh common Core. Common Core 1873 01:42:06,320 --> 01:42:09,759 Speaker 8: was started by Bill and mel and his Bill Gates 1874 01:42:09,800 --> 01:42:13,120 Speaker 8: and his wife. This was an idea to transform the 1875 01:42:13,160 --> 01:42:17,480 Speaker 8: curriculum in America, and it was supposedly quote unquote voluntary. 1876 01:42:17,920 --> 01:42:20,759 Speaker 8: But if you didn't, if a state didn't go along 1877 01:42:20,800 --> 01:42:23,160 Speaker 8: with it, you didn't get this huge pile of money. 1878 01:42:23,479 --> 01:42:29,080 Speaker 8: So forty some states opted into Bill Gates's curriculum for 1879 01:42:29,240 --> 01:42:33,160 Speaker 8: teaching your kid, and a lot of them were Republican states. 1880 01:42:33,560 --> 01:42:36,519 Speaker 2: Can't do without that money, Tom, That's how they got Ohio. 1881 01:42:36,880 --> 01:42:38,960 Speaker 2: That's how they got Ohio to change its drinking age. 1882 01:42:39,000 --> 01:42:40,920 Speaker 2: Oh sucks to be you. You either go twenty one 1883 01:42:41,040 --> 01:42:42,400 Speaker 2: or you're not going to get your funding that we 1884 01:42:42,479 --> 01:42:45,400 Speaker 2: took from you taxpayers, and we'll not give back until 1885 01:42:45,400 --> 01:42:48,320 Speaker 2: you bend to our will. That's the unevil, that is 1886 01:42:48,360 --> 01:42:51,640 Speaker 2: the evil of federal government and their top power of taxation. 1887 01:42:52,160 --> 01:42:53,839 Speaker 1: Yes it is Tom Hagenord. 1888 01:42:53,840 --> 01:42:56,479 Speaker 2: He's going to be on tonight seven pm Empower You 1889 01:42:56,680 --> 01:42:59,200 Speaker 2: America Dot or show up atree hundred grade Oaks drive 1890 01:42:59,400 --> 01:43:01,840 Speaker 2: or log in from home.

I was shocked to hear him 1932 01:44:49,920 --> 01:44:54,080 Speaker 2: say that Yankees opening day's this evening, right They. 1933 01:44:54,000 --> 01:44:56,640 Speaker 10: Opened tonight in I don't know what they call it 1934 01:44:56,680 --> 01:45:02,280 Speaker 10: Candlestick Park anymore, but wherever the the San Francisco Giants play, 1935 01:45:02,400 --> 01:45:06,080 Speaker 10: so it's a National League team and it's on the 1936 01:45:06,080 --> 01:45:06,719 Speaker 10: West Coast. 1937 01:45:07,040 --> 01:45:10,400 Speaker 2: I am certain that there is some corporate sponsors Candlestick. 1938 01:45:10,479 --> 01:45:13,080 Speaker 2: The name Candlestick doesn't generate revenue for a stadium, so 1939 01:45:13,200 --> 01:45:14,559 Speaker 2: it's probably naming right here. 1940 01:45:14,640 --> 01:45:16,080 Speaker 3: I think it's name after a bank. 1941 01:45:16,120 --> 01:45:18,200 Speaker 1: I'm not sure that would shock no one. 1942 01:45:18,280 --> 01:45:20,160 Speaker 2: Hey, look pay Course stadium right out there at the 1943 01:45:20,160 --> 01:45:23,800 Speaker 2: Cincinnati anyway, Judge ennenopolatan real quick here, and we don't 1944 01:45:23,840 --> 01:45:25,080 Speaker 2: have to spend a whole lot of time on it. 1945 01:45:25,080 --> 01:45:26,560 Speaker 2: If I'm catching you off guard. But I know you 1946 01:45:26,600 --> 01:45:28,360 Speaker 2: always pay attention to what's going with the Supreme Court. 1947 01:45:28,400 --> 01:45:31,679 Speaker 2: They had oral arguments yesterday on the asylum seekers claims 1948 01:45:31,720 --> 01:45:34,720 Speaker 2: that if you just show up at the border, then 1949 01:45:34,720 --> 01:45:37,240 Speaker 2: you need to be offered an asylum claim, and it 1950 01:45:37,280 --> 01:45:41,080 Speaker 2: looked like at least Judge Alito was pushing back on that. 1951 01:45:42,360 --> 01:45:44,080 Speaker 2: He said, well, do you think someone who comes in 1952 01:45:44,120 --> 01:45:45,840 Speaker 2: the front to the front door of a house and 1953 01:45:45,960 --> 01:45:49,920 Speaker 2: knocks at the door has arrived in the house? Because 1954 01:45:49,960 --> 01:45:52,280 Speaker 2: the law at issue says an illegal or an alien 1955 01:45:52,280 --> 01:45:54,800 Speaker 2: who is physically present in the United States or who 1956 01:45:54,840 --> 01:45:58,800 Speaker 2: arrives in the United States may apply for asylum. That 1957 01:45:59,000 --> 01:46:02,519 Speaker 2: sounds to me straightforward. No, if you're outside of the border, 1958 01:46:02,520 --> 01:46:05,479 Speaker 2: you're not in the United States. Your reaction, just to 1959 01:46:05,520 --> 01:46:07,519 Speaker 2: my general sort of perception of things. 1960 01:46:07,960 --> 01:46:10,000 Speaker 3: I think just this leader was right. 1961 01:46:10,080 --> 01:46:12,480 Speaker 10: I mean, the job of the court is to interpret 1962 01:46:13,240 --> 01:46:15,839 Speaker 10: the statute and take the plain meaning of the statute. 1963 01:46:15,840 --> 01:46:18,160 Speaker 3: The Court didn't write the statute. Congress did. 1964 01:46:18,800 --> 01:46:23,559 Speaker 10: If Congress wanted asylum applicants to make their applications at 1965 01:46:23,640 --> 01:46:27,320 Speaker 10: the border on the non American side of the border, 1966 01:46:27,360 --> 01:46:28,080 Speaker 10: they would have said. 1967 01:46:28,120 --> 01:46:28,200 Speaker 4: So. 1968 01:46:28,880 --> 01:46:34,640 Speaker 10: The problem is that for fifty years, presidential administrations of 1969 01:46:34,760 --> 01:46:38,400 Speaker 10: both parties have allowed them to set foot in the 1970 01:46:38,520 --> 01:46:40,080 Speaker 10: United States so they. 1971 01:46:39,920 --> 01:46:41,360 Speaker 3: Can make the application. 1972 01:46:41,560 --> 01:46:45,920 Speaker 10: The first presidential administration to enforce this law literally is 1973 01:46:46,000 --> 01:46:50,559 Speaker 10: the current one, and that is apparently finding support in 1974 01:46:50,640 --> 01:46:53,639 Speaker 10: the Supreme Court. I would where I on the Court 1975 01:46:54,360 --> 01:46:59,480 Speaker 10: have voted consistent with the thoughts expressed by Justice Alito. 1976 01:47:00,240 --> 01:47:02,400 Speaker 2: Enough, all right, the record's been corrected, your honor. I 1977 01:47:02,439 --> 01:47:05,839 Speaker 2: trust David is word instant message. Reds have not opened 1978 01:47:05,880 --> 01:47:08,439 Speaker 2: this season in many years, so apparently that has gone 1979 01:47:08,439 --> 01:47:09,559 Speaker 2: by the way of the DODO. 1980 01:47:09,640 --> 01:47:13,560 Speaker 10: So yeah, that I do, I do stand corrected. I 1981 01:47:13,640 --> 01:47:16,360 Speaker 10: do think whoever that is that told us I gather 1982 01:47:16,479 --> 01:47:18,960 Speaker 10: whoever that is is a Yankee hater. 1983 01:47:18,800 --> 01:47:19,599 Speaker 3: And a Reds fan. 1984 01:47:20,120 --> 01:47:22,960 Speaker 2: I don't think you can reach the former conclusion, but 1985 01:47:23,040 --> 01:47:26,640 Speaker 2: I assure you he's a Reds fan pivoting over. 1986 01:47:26,600 --> 01:47:28,959 Speaker 3: I don't don't the two go together. 1987 01:47:29,280 --> 01:47:31,519 Speaker 1: Yeah, of course they do. I think we can. 1988 01:47:31,680 --> 01:47:33,840 Speaker 2: We can assume that if we want to assume something, 1989 01:47:33,920 --> 01:47:35,160 Speaker 2: or presume it if it sounds better. 1990 01:47:36,000 --> 01:47:37,880 Speaker 1: War and morality. I thought this was an. 1991 01:47:37,800 --> 01:47:40,439 Speaker 2: Interesting breakdown, and I really appreciate the thought you put 1992 01:47:40,479 --> 01:47:42,519 Speaker 2: into your column, which my listeners can get tonight. I'm 1993 01:47:42,560 --> 01:47:46,240 Speaker 2: lucky to get an early copy the idea you break down. 1994 01:47:46,439 --> 01:47:49,639 Speaker 2: You start, of course with history, but you get into 1995 01:47:49,680 --> 01:47:52,160 Speaker 2: the concept, and we're dealing with the war in Iran, 1996 01:47:52,240 --> 01:47:57,000 Speaker 2: our waging war against iron. Morality on one side and 1997 01:47:57,360 --> 01:48:02,720 Speaker 2: law legality on the other. Breakdown these concerts. Concept so immoral, 1998 01:48:02,800 --> 01:48:06,760 Speaker 2: and of course you suggest it is immoral. Morality conforms 1999 01:48:06,760 --> 01:48:09,320 Speaker 2: to a universal set of principles designed to reduce good 2000 01:48:09,360 --> 01:48:12,080 Speaker 2: over evil and justice over in. Justin you break that down. 2001 01:48:12,360 --> 01:48:15,360 Speaker 2: I guess my question is because you're you spring for 2002 01:48:15,439 --> 01:48:19,320 Speaker 2: the proposition is this is immoral by all measures. But 2003 01:48:19,400 --> 01:48:25,440 Speaker 2: if someone is subjectively viewing morality, because morality can be subjective, 2004 01:48:25,840 --> 01:48:27,479 Speaker 2: I'm spring from a different moral cost. 2005 01:48:27,600 --> 01:48:29,080 Speaker 3: Of course, it can be subjective. 2006 01:48:29,160 --> 01:48:33,720 Speaker 10: The people who disagree with this column would say, you know, 2007 01:48:33,800 --> 01:48:37,479 Speaker 10: it's better that five Iranians die now than hundreds of 2008 01:48:37,520 --> 01:48:41,120 Speaker 10: Americans die later, and that is a moral judgment. So 2009 01:48:41,800 --> 01:48:45,840 Speaker 10: it's basically, you know, the great philosopher he was at 2010 01:48:45,920 --> 01:48:49,840 Speaker 10: Notre Dame one teaching undergrads and graduate students when I 2011 01:48:50,000 --> 01:48:53,480 Speaker 10: was a law student. He's no longer with us. Alistair 2012 01:48:53,600 --> 01:48:58,320 Speaker 10: McIntyre has a great book called Who's Morality? And that's 2013 01:48:58,400 --> 01:49:06,360 Speaker 10: basically what but this column evokes. I argue, for a traditional, 2014 01:49:07,760 --> 01:49:12,960 Speaker 10: even Catholic, if you will, natural law morality, that you 2015 01:49:14,080 --> 01:49:16,799 Speaker 10: need a lot more evidence before you can kill somebody 2016 01:49:16,800 --> 01:49:21,400 Speaker 10: who's not engaged in violence. And I argue that the 2017 01:49:21,479 --> 01:49:24,120 Speaker 10: administration has not produced that evidence. 2018 01:49:24,240 --> 01:49:25,880 Speaker 3: That's strike number one. 2019 01:49:25,920 --> 01:49:29,120 Speaker 10: Strike number two is the American public has not consented 2020 01:49:29,840 --> 01:49:33,120 Speaker 10: in any way to allow the president to start a war. 2021 01:49:33,200 --> 01:49:36,960 Speaker 10: They have consented to the Congress to start a war, 2022 01:49:37,080 --> 01:49:39,439 Speaker 10: and that's not what happened here. So for both of 2023 01:49:39,479 --> 01:49:43,840 Speaker 10: those reasons, I argue the war is immoral just by 2024 01:49:44,280 --> 01:49:53,080 Speaker 10: general standards of violating the people's absence of consent. 2025 01:49:53,160 --> 01:49:55,960 Speaker 2: Right now, And you point out when we transgress the 2026 01:49:56,080 --> 01:49:59,320 Speaker 2: natural rights of others, and I appreciate the concept because 2027 01:49:59,320 --> 01:50:03,479 Speaker 2: you and I both that people have inherent natural rights. 2028 01:50:03,680 --> 01:50:06,120 Speaker 2: Now they may have had those rights taken away from 2029 01:50:06,120 --> 01:50:08,879 Speaker 2: them by an evil, oppressive government. That they find themselves 2030 01:50:08,920 --> 01:50:11,800 Speaker 2: under at least our founding fathers recognize these principles and 2031 01:50:11,840 --> 01:50:14,240 Speaker 2: enshrining them to some degree in the Bill of Rights. 2032 01:50:14,600 --> 01:50:19,760 Speaker 2: So we buy it's the old idea that in a 2033 01:50:19,760 --> 01:50:21,960 Speaker 2: state of nature, I can literally do whatever I want, 2034 01:50:23,160 --> 01:50:25,600 Speaker 2: but when I have to live next to someone, I 2035 01:50:25,720 --> 01:50:29,920 Speaker 2: can't interfere with their natural rights. That's the intrusion. That's 2036 01:50:29,960 --> 01:50:32,760 Speaker 2: the the wayman. I can't tell you how to live 2037 01:50:32,800 --> 01:50:34,679 Speaker 2: your life. You can't tell me how to live my life. 2038 01:50:34,680 --> 01:50:36,120 Speaker 2: And as long as we can play together nicely or 2039 01:50:36,160 --> 01:50:38,800 Speaker 2: not bother each other, we can live together. We are 2040 01:50:38,880 --> 01:50:41,240 Speaker 2: intruding on what you would perceive as the natural rights 2041 01:50:41,240 --> 01:50:46,400 Speaker 2: of the Iranians by bombing them, because they well, they 2042 01:50:46,400 --> 01:50:49,600 Speaker 2: represent some sort of you know, maybe existential threat theoretically. 2043 01:50:49,640 --> 01:50:52,840 Speaker 2: But that's the argument that's been put forward, right. 2044 01:50:52,680 --> 01:50:54,840 Speaker 3: Right, right exactly. You know. 2045 01:50:54,960 --> 01:51:00,160 Speaker 10: I I sometimes feel like I'm a broken record. But 2046 01:51:00,200 --> 01:51:05,439 Speaker 10: I thought, instead of emphasizing the constitutional issue, I would 2047 01:51:05,479 --> 01:51:09,200 Speaker 10: approach it from the Jeffersonian viewpoint of the consent of 2048 01:51:09,200 --> 01:51:11,920 Speaker 10: the governed. That's why it's a very interesting phrase that 2049 01:51:12,000 --> 01:51:13,799 Speaker 10: Jefferson used. 2050 01:51:14,560 --> 01:51:17,080 Speaker 3: He said that the government. 2051 01:51:16,720 --> 01:51:22,880 Speaker 10: Derives its just powers capital jay and just from the 2052 01:51:22,880 --> 01:51:25,880 Speaker 10: consent of the governed. It has other powers that it 2053 01:51:25,960 --> 01:51:29,920 Speaker 10: exercises that it doesn't get from the consent of the government, 2054 01:51:30,000 --> 01:51:32,600 Speaker 10: and because they don't come from the consent. 2055 01:51:32,360 --> 01:51:34,720 Speaker 3: Of the government, they are unjust. 2056 01:51:35,280 --> 01:51:40,000 Speaker 10: And the governed American public has only consented to Congress 2057 01:51:40,000 --> 01:51:43,600 Speaker 10: declaring war. So that's what I attempted to argue an 2058 01:51:43,600 --> 01:51:44,160 Speaker 10: inn the show. 2059 01:51:44,320 --> 01:51:46,519 Speaker 2: Well, I thought it came through very clearly. There's morality 2060 01:51:46,520 --> 01:51:49,040 Speaker 2: on one side, and then there's legality and the Constitution, 2061 01:51:49,120 --> 01:51:52,400 Speaker 2: I think, embrace that concept of the people must participate. 2062 01:51:52,880 --> 01:51:56,080 Speaker 2: Congress decides whether or not we go to war. Congress 2063 01:51:56,160 --> 01:51:59,240 Speaker 2: is a representative form of government speaking for us. So 2064 01:51:59,360 --> 01:52:02,240 Speaker 2: the argument is that our representatives have consulted with constituents 2065 01:52:02,280 --> 01:52:04,759 Speaker 2: and they come out in either favor of or against it, 2066 01:52:04,800 --> 01:52:07,040 Speaker 2: because it's the will of the people, which provides some 2067 01:52:07,160 --> 01:52:10,760 Speaker 2: legal justification. Some, many including you, are arguing that there 2068 01:52:10,840 --> 01:52:16,559 Speaker 2: is no constitutional lawful engagement warp this particular time, aside 2069 01:52:16,560 --> 01:52:18,680 Speaker 2: form the morality of it. And I understand that. And 2070 01:52:18,720 --> 01:52:23,320 Speaker 2: you made another great point, he said, the ridding the 2071 01:52:23,360 --> 01:52:25,920 Speaker 2: Iran government of nuclear weapons cannot be considered a moral 2072 01:52:26,000 --> 01:52:29,760 Speaker 2: goal as and this is it mere possession and non 2073 01:52:30,080 --> 01:52:33,439 Speaker 2: use of these weapons is not immoral. Isn't that the 2074 01:52:33,479 --> 01:52:37,519 Speaker 2: found the very foundation of mutually assured destruction? Isn't this 2075 01:52:37,560 --> 01:52:40,599 Speaker 2: why so many nations want to acquire a nuclear weapon. 2076 01:52:40,720 --> 01:52:43,160 Speaker 2: We're not going after the Chinese Communist Party, even though 2077 01:52:43,200 --> 01:52:46,000 Speaker 2: they represent a broader existential threat to us, because they're 2078 01:52:46,040 --> 01:52:47,400 Speaker 2: fully armed with nuclear weapons. 2079 01:52:47,400 --> 01:52:50,679 Speaker 10: Same thing with Russia, Same thing with the nut job 2080 01:52:50,760 --> 01:52:53,639 Speaker 10: in North Korea. Nobody's gonna lag love on him because 2081 01:52:53,680 --> 01:52:57,559 Speaker 10: he's got a nuclear weapon. If not suggesting that I 2082 01:52:57,600 --> 01:53:02,719 Speaker 10: want it run weapon at all. But if Iran had 2083 01:53:02,920 --> 01:53:05,200 Speaker 10: a weapon, do you think the United States and Israel 2084 01:53:05,240 --> 01:53:06,599 Speaker 10: but would be waging this war? 2085 01:53:06,800 --> 01:53:07,439 Speaker 3: Of course not. 2086 01:53:08,560 --> 01:53:12,360 Speaker 10: The other argument is if if possession but non use 2087 01:53:12,479 --> 01:53:15,680 Speaker 10: of the weapon is im moral and justifies an invasion, 2088 01:53:16,520 --> 01:53:19,800 Speaker 10: well then the invaders can be invaded because Israel and 2089 01:53:19,880 --> 01:53:23,880 Speaker 10: the US have nuclear weapons. Israel hasn't used theirs, the 2090 01:53:23,960 --> 01:53:26,080 Speaker 10: United States has used hours. 2091 01:53:26,479 --> 01:53:29,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's what I like people to really focus on. 2092 01:53:29,200 --> 01:53:31,519 Speaker 2: You know, it's there is nothing cut and dried in 2093 01:53:31,600 --> 01:53:34,000 Speaker 2: this world. And I do not want the Iranians get 2094 01:53:34,000 --> 01:53:36,880 Speaker 2: a nuclear weapon, and the argument is to keep them 2095 01:53:36,880 --> 01:53:39,840 Speaker 2: from doing it. It's one of those they're just batcrap 2096 01:53:39,960 --> 01:53:42,599 Speaker 2: crazy to use it offensively, They might drop a bomb 2097 01:53:42,640 --> 01:53:45,000 Speaker 2: on anybody. They certainly hate Israel and say it out 2098 01:53:45,040 --> 01:53:47,200 Speaker 2: loud all the time. They want to eradicate them from 2099 01:53:47,240 --> 01:53:49,720 Speaker 2: the face of the earth, So clearly they will be 2100 01:53:49,760 --> 01:53:52,719 Speaker 2: the initial target. But would the Iranians use it knowing 2101 01:53:52,720 --> 01:53:55,960 Speaker 2: full well that maybe Israel's nuclear weapons will be dropped 2102 01:53:55,960 --> 01:53:56,400 Speaker 2: on Iran? 2103 01:53:58,240 --> 01:54:02,080 Speaker 10: That that's why this mutual will assured destruction has thus 2104 01:54:02,160 --> 01:54:07,839 Speaker 10: far prevented everybody except Harry Truman. Of course, the Soviets 2105 01:54:07,840 --> 01:54:12,040 Speaker 10: didn't happen time from using a nuclear weapon. 2106 01:54:12,320 --> 01:54:15,839 Speaker 2: It predated mutually assured destruction. Are you of them correct? 2107 01:54:16,080 --> 01:54:19,439 Speaker 2: It's great thought exercise and I'd love being knowing to 2108 01:54:19,520 --> 01:54:20,840 Speaker 2: go through this with you year on.
