God, it 13 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:49,520 Speaker 2: was a great experience. 14 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 1: And uh, nobody ever. 15 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 2: Told me my oath was descended when I left the 16 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 2: military and it will never die until I pass away. 17 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 3: Have a good day, Happy Vecon's Day to all the. 18 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:04,480 Speaker 2: Brothers and sisters that are in the military. 19 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 1: Thanks. 20 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:07,960 Speaker 5: I am so glad to see so many vets that 21 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 5: are running for office in the state. That is the 22 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,119 Speaker 5: only way you're going to turn this state around. Instead 23 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:16,680 Speaker 5: of electing socialist democrats that can't even run their own 24 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 5: life and family, let alone a state or a country. 25 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,679 Speaker 5: We do need proven people that have defended this country 26 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,679 Speaker 5: and know what the country's all about, rather than turning 27 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,039 Speaker 5: it over to a third world country. 28 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,680 Speaker 4: Thank you for the top backs from the iHeartRadio app 29 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 4: brought to you by Lyndahl Realty here on Twin Cities 30 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 4: News Talk Am eleven thirty and one oh three five 31 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 4: FM from the sixty five to one Carpet Next Day 32 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 4: install studios. Speaking of radical socialists, the city of Dynah 33 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 4: the latest to provide symbolic assistance to Governor Tim Walls 34 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 4: and his anti firearm agenda as they seek to join 35 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 4: the Twin Cities in passing a meaningless and potentially law 36 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 4: breaking ordinance. So again, while Democrats constantly accused Trump of 37 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 4: being an authoritarian king, these democrat run cities willfully ignore 38 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 4: the rule of law for the sake of peddling the 39 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,800 Speaker 4: leftist agenda. 40 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 1: So. 41 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 4: Rob Dorr at the Minnesota Gun Owner's Caucus posted this yesterday, 42 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 4: responding to a DYNA letter to the Dynasity Council on 43 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 4: their proposed firearm ordinance. Clouncil, my word the loss clear, 44 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 4: and so's a message. Adyna's proposed firearm ordinance raises serious 45 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 4: legal concerns, as any such measure violates Minnesota's preemption statute. 46 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 4: Any ordinance in conflict with that statute is void, even 47 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 4: if the city attempts at gimmicks such as a deferred 48 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:52,919 Speaker 4: enforcement scheme. Your city's residents deserve confidence that their leaders 49 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 4: act within lawful bounds. 50 00:02:55,280 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 3: You know, not like kings just want to lawless. 51 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 4: Act of defiance to state law only weakens public confidence 52 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 4: in sound civic governance. You can avoid that mistake by 53 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 4: respecting preemption's statewide safeguard. Needlessly provoking litigation serves no one. 54 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 4: A drainstax bayer resources diverts energy from legitimate civic priorities. 55 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 4: History has proven that point, as every court that entered 56 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:30,519 Speaker 4: excuse me that encountered similar local preemption violations has reached 57 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 4: the same conclusion. When duly elected state law occupies the 58 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 4: field of policy, municipal governments must yield. Any cities that 59 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:44,839 Speaker 4: defined preemption have met the same fate in court, those 60 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 4: cities may test their reach. The judiciary has spoken with clarity, 61 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 4: preemption simply leaves no tolerance for local intervention. The Minnesota 62 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 4: Court of Appeals Jennison versus Bloomington echoed that intent. When 63 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 4: state law occupies the fields that he simply cannot intervene. 64 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 4: Now he Dyna stands at the same crossroads, warned by 65 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 4: subtled precedent and guided by clear language. The only obligation 66 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 4: to comply. Only the Minnesota legislature may regulate this domain, 67 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 4: and courts will defend that boundary without hesitation. It's not 68 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,920 Speaker 4: about optics, but the rule of law, obedience to statute. 69 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 4: Nothing would better serve e Dinah than ending this unlawful 70 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 4: pursuit today. Listen, Rob Dorr is right when he talks 71 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 4: about the optics. That's all what's going on here. It's 72 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 4: all about the optics, including Governor Tim Walls and his 73 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 4: continued town halls now dragging State Senator Judy Seberger on board, 74 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 4: a Democrat and a gun owner, working off the story 75 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 4: from Fox nine, says she doesn't know if any Republicans 76 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 4: would vote for an assault weapons ban. 77 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 3: I love this quote, by the way, in my opinion, 78 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 3: says see Burger. 79 00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,279 Speaker 4: Everything's on the table, and anything that comes to me 80 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,599 Speaker 4: that has the support and will save lives, I will 81 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 4: be a yes on. So anything that comes to her 82 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 4: has support and will save lives, she will be a 83 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 4: yes on. 84 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 3: It doesn't even make sense. 85 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 4: It doesn't have to make sense though. Walls doesn't have 86 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,919 Speaker 4: to make sense. These town halls don't have to make sense. 87 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 4: They only make sense when you look at it through 88 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 4: the lens of it's not about saving lives, like she says. 89 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 4: And so let's just take this, let me break this 90 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:41,479 Speaker 4: down just briefly. So if the legislature moves forward right 91 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 4: with a full gun band in Minnesota, right, so she'll 92 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 4: be in support of that all of a sudden, even 93 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 4: though she says that she's. 94 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 3: A gun owner. 95 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 4: I'm just wondering anything that comes to me that has 96 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 4: support and will save lives. I mean, like you left 97 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 4: yourself so many outs there, you'd have to be just 98 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 4: blindly following along to not understand that it is again 99 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 4: just this is just a word salad with no substance, 100 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 4: and the same thing rings sure when it comes to 101 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 4: these town halls. Governor Tim Walls knows that having a 102 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 4: special session would be a disaster. It wouldn't yield what 103 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 4: he needs in terms of running for a reelection, it 104 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 4: wouldn't benefit Democrats heading into next year. And I'm sure 105 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 4: that we'll approach this when we get into the regular session, 106 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 4: but who knows what will happen between now and heading 107 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 4: into the beginning of next year. Here's more of the 108 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,919 Speaker 4: story that I was just sharing with you from Fox 109 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 4: nine regarding the latest town hall with Governor Tim Walls. 110 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 6: Following the assassinations of Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark, 111 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 6: and the deadly mass shootings and Annunciation Catholic Church. She 112 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 6: would support full bands on assault style weapons and high 113 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 6: capacity magazines pushed by Governor Walls. 114 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 7: In my opinion, everything's on the table, and anything that 115 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 7: comes to me that has the support and will save lives, 116 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 7: I will. 117 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 3: Be a yes son. 118 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 6: Sieberger says voters have told her they want more legislation 119 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 6: around preventing gun violence, but they may not feel comfortable 120 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 6: airing their views in her split district. She says it's 121 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 6: up to lawmakers to find solutions, like more funding for 122 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 6: mental health services that both sides can agree on. 123 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 3: Everybody is frustrated. 124 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 7: Most people are scared, and I think we all deserve 125 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 7: to feel safe in our community, and I'm trying to 126 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 7: do something about that now. 127 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 8: We did reach out to get a Republican perspective for 128 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 8: our story, but we didn't hear back. However, House Republicans 129 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 8: did release a plan that includes more money for school security, 130 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 8: school resource officers, and mental health treatment bets. 131 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the story from Fox nine. If people are scared, 132 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 4: that's on them, That's on Democrats that continue to fear 133 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 4: monger over this issue. They're not looking to solve anything. 134 00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 4: They know they're not going to solve anything. There is 135 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 4: no law that you can pass that's guaranteed it's going 136 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 4: to go and save lives. Those are hollow statements, borderline propaganda, 137 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 4: probably propaganda to many of you. I didn't even realize 138 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 4: that Walls was even having this next town hall. That's 139 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 4: how little attention that they're getting right now, we hear 140 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 4: about it after the fact. 141 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 3: I'm glad that the Walls. 142 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 4: Continues to perpetuate this idea that his hands are tied, 143 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 4: because I don't think the majority of individuals, even on 144 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 4: the left or even buying it. They may not care, 145 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,200 Speaker 4: don't misunderstand, they may be on board with it, but 146 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 4: they also right don't care that Walls is just using 147 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 4: this to push an agenda. But I think most people 148 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 4: are realizing that's what's going on right now. It's really 149 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:52,479 Speaker 4: not all that unlike what's taking place with this shutdown. 150 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:58,719 Speaker 4: You know, walls, dfllers attempting to go and shape this 151 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 4: argument in this art as if it's Republicans that won't 152 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 4: go and vote on this preventing him from doing the 153 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 4: special session, when we all know that that's not true, 154 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 4: even those on the left. 155 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:10,200 Speaker 3: No, it's not true. 156 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 4: And it's the same thing that happened with the government 157 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 4: shutdown that may be coming to an end, as Democrats 158 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 4: tried to frame this as being the Republican shutdown and 159 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 4: it just never ever stuck. 160 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 3: Coming up. 161 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 4: Target has issued a new directive to its workers that 162 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 4: I'm assuming most people saw this and had the same 163 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 4: reaction that I did over this new Target directive, and 164 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 4: that reaction would be you weren't doing this already. 165 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 3: I'll share with you the details of. 166 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 4: This coming up, and we will talk with Representative in 167 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:48,080 Speaker 4: Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate Tom Tiffany, traveling here too Minneapolis for 168 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 4: an event relating to his Wisconsin run for governor. Will 169 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 4: get his thoughts on the shutdown coming to an end 170 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 4: an update on his race as well.

Then you got anything in there to talk about, Sam. 214 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 4: Because this is what I was going to talk about. 215 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 4: But you know, according to according to Eric, there's no there's. 216 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 3: No there's no news. There's no news here. 217 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 13: So why now you mean you both have me curious? 218 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 13: What's the directive you're referencing? 219 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 3: So from Fox nine? 220 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:22,439 Speaker 4: Okay, target isition a new directive according to Fox nine, 221 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:27,319 Speaker 4: contrary to what Eric says, mandating that workers smile at 222 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 4: customers as part of a plan to boost sales, heading 223 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 4: into the holiday. I actually hope that Eric's right. I 224 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 4: hope this is not a new I mean this, this 225 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 4: is not a new directive. That being said, Look, you know, 226 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 4: I know Sam knows, you know, the quality when it 227 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:54,960 Speaker 4: comes to your shopping experience, you know, has diminished greatly 228 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 4: over over the years. Customer service is just pretty much 229 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 4: non existent. Like if I were running a business, that 230 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 4: would be the number one thing that I. 231 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 3: Would be focusing on. 232 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 4: I was having a Melinna and I were having a 233 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 4: lengthy conversation just about Disneyland specifically, just because we both, 234 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 4: you know, love the parks and you know, I was 235 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 4: born and raised in southern California and I would go 236 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 4: there a couple of. 237 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:22,439 Speaker 3: Times a week during the during the nineties. 238 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 4: And the quality relating to the cast members and the 239 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 4: customer service they deliver, it's just it's diminished unfortunately, you know. 240 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 4: And so this doesn't surprise me if it is indeed new. 241 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:37,200 Speaker 4: The newly initiative, they say, is called the ten four program. 242 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 4: According to Bloomberg, Under the program, workers are required to smile, 243 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:46,439 Speaker 4: make eye contact, or wave and wave or greet a shopper. 244 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 3: Who comes within ten feet of them. Within ten feet Wow, 245 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 3: I'm trying to think of that. 246 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 4: We have like a we have like a reverse of 247 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 4: the social distancing, like a like a new version. I 248 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 4: haven't quite worked out. It just came to me. 249 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 13: You and I are about ten feet apart. Should i'd 250 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:04,680 Speaker 13: be waving at you every time you look at. 251 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:06,320 Speaker 1: Me, just. 252 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:09,079 Speaker 3: Because it sounds fun? 253 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 13: Yep, Hi John. 254 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 4: If they are closer, Oh there's more. If they are 255 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 4: closer within four feet, the worker is required to ask 256 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 4: them if they need help or how their day is going. 257 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 3: Oh, I want to test this. 258 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 13: I'm not coming within four feet eet. 259 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 4: So is there going to be training on like how 260 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 4: far you know four feet actually is? For example, a 261 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 4: moment ago you said we're about ten feet apart from 262 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 4: each other. 263 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 3: I think we're more like twenty. Yeah, you know, I 264 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 3: mean there's a wall and two panes of glass between us. 265 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 3: But it sucked. 266 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 4: I think, you know, maybe if you'll both split the difference, 267 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 4: maybe fifteen. I wonder if most people even realize how 268 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 4: far you know four feet is? That makes that makes 269 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 4: me laugh. Though we have the technology, this is real. 270 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 4: This is a real simple fix they need. You need 271 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 4: to just wear a device. You get a little headphone 272 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 4: little headphone in right, bluetooth just blue tooth headphone with 273 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 4: the device and therefore it beeps depending on how cloaks 274 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 4: you are to a customer to keep the employees in compliance. 275 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 4: Why did I hold up on the story until now? 276 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 4: But again, according to Eric, this is nothing. This is 277 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 4: nothing new at all. So the Bloomberg article where it's 278 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 4: stemmed from draws parallels to a long standing rule for 279 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 4: Walmart workers which carries the same ten foot smiling requirement. 280 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 4: Oh that certainly has not been implemented or policy does 281 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 4: not follow. I couldn't tell you the last time a 282 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 4: Walmart employee ever smiled at me. As a matter of fact, 283 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 4: I couldn't tell you when we go to Walmart a lot. 284 00:15:54,880 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 4: I could not tell you any time easy in the 285 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 4: past nine years when. 286 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 3: I ever had a Walmart. 287 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 4: Employee come up to me and engage me in any way, 288 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 4: shape or form. It is always me having to go 289 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 4: and seek them out. And it happens a lot because 290 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 4: I need to go and get refills on my printer, 291 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 4: inc So I have to go into the electronics section, 292 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 4: and then I gotta go and track somebody down, and 293 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 4: that person doesn't have a key, and they got to track. 294 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 3: Somebody down, and they're never happy there. There's never any 295 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 3: which always blows my mind. It's like, you're there, you 296 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 3: are on the clock, You're there to work.

It's now going 351 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 4: to go back to the House. How keem Jeffries though 352 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,879 Speaker 4: signal that perhaps Democrats won't be on board with this 353 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 4: when it gets. 354 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 3: Back into the House. 355 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 4: What's your expectation on how much longer all of this 356 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 4: is going to last? And we can put this a 357 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 4: shutdown in the rear view mirror. Congressman Tom Tiffany, Well, I. 358 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 9: Suspect Jefferies is going to have to put up a 359 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:48,120 Speaker 9: bold front for the base that is outraged by what 360 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:52,640 Speaker 9: they have seen here, the leftist base that is, and 361 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 9: I mean it's all performative art. They put party before people. 362 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 9: The ends justify the means. They wanted to ensure victory 363 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:05,359 Speaker 9: in New Jersey, and Virginia last week. And you know, 364 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 9: to a certain extent, it's mission accomplished by them. But 365 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 9: now they've got everybody gimmed up to such an extent 366 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:15,360 Speaker 9: on there in their base that boy, we cannot uh 367 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 9: make any changes to Obamacare though it's failing the country 368 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:26,359 Speaker 9: and failing to provide affordable healthcare for the American people. 369 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 4: Let's move over to your to your race. You're run 370 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 4: for governor in Wisconsin. How has the race been going. 371 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,840 Speaker 4: What have you been hearing from the constituents as well? 372 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 4: And I'm always interested in that because you know, a 373 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 4: lot of times, you know, doing the show, I cover 374 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,480 Speaker 4: what gets talked about within the media, but sometimes, uh, 375 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:50,679 Speaker 4: there's a different view coming from those individuals who you know, 376 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 4: don't call into the show. And I'm curious to your 377 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:56,959 Speaker 4: perspective of where the concerns rest for the people in Wisconsin. 378 00:20:58,359 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. 379 00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 9: So six weeks in and it's going very well. We've 380 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 9: got broad support across the state and we're taking the message, 381 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,399 Speaker 9: which is the buzzworth these days, affordability to the people 382 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:14,600 Speaker 9: of the state of Wisconsin. Let's lower increase property taxes. 383 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 9: We're in the bottom ten for business startups entrepreneurial activity 384 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 9: in the United States. Let's change that. Let's make sure 385 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,200 Speaker 9: that we're If we're gonna put more money into education, 386 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 9: let's make sure it is done in a way that 387 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,639 Speaker 9: it benefits, paying good teachers more money and following the 388 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 9: students and their families. We have among the highest utility 389 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 9: rates now in the Midwest. We used to be among 390 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,159 Speaker 9: the lowest. And so there's a whole bunch of stuff 391 00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:46,440 Speaker 9: that people are focused on. But I do think it 392 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 9: is that affordability question. But the other thing is, you know, 393 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 9: the people that live within the shadow of the Twin 394 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 9: Cities over in Saint Croix done, you know, Polk, excuse me, 395 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 9: Pierce County, you know, they see what's happening in Minnesota, 396 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,640 Speaker 9: and I emphasize we do not want to end up 397 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 9: like Minnesota and what has happened over in this great 398 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,159 Speaker 9: state where people are clean, and people are going to 399 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,959 Speaker 9: make a choice here, John in twenty twenty six, do 400 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,159 Speaker 9: you want to be among the Wolkenbrooke like Minnesota and Illinois, 401 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 9: or do you want to be one of the prosperous 402 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,399 Speaker 9: states of America. That's a choice that's going to be made. 403 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:27,639 Speaker 9: States are diverging at this point, they're either choosing to 404 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 9: be a blue state, which they're headed down the tubes basically, 405 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 9: or those states that really want to be prosperous Florida, Texas, Tennessee, Ohio. 406 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,400 Speaker 9: Which state are we going to be in Wisconsin? That's 407 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 9: the question, and that's the message that I'm delivering to people, 408 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 9: and that's what I'm hearing about people. We can do 409 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 9: better in Wisconsin. 410 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:52,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I've been questioning, talking with Tom Tiffany, 411 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,360 Speaker 4: you know, I've been questioning how much the issues when 412 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 4: we get into next year, how much they're. 413 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 3: Even going to matter. 414 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,440 Speaker 4: I mean, of course they matter to individuals like yourself, matter, 415 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 4: they matter to me. But the way in which the 416 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 4: Democrats are conducting their campaigns, their commentary, you know, it's 417 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 4: less and less about the issues, and it's more and 418 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 4: more just simply focused on vilifying and demonizing Republicans every 419 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,439 Speaker 4: single step of the way, in which case it just 420 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:20,920 Speaker 4: ends up becoming a who can get. 421 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 3: The vote out more? 422 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,400 Speaker 4: You know, you know, from either side, I'm curious your 423 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,040 Speaker 4: perspective on that, because it doesn't seem like the Democrats 424 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 4: really while they talk about the issues. I think you 425 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 4: and I both know that they spend the majority of 426 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,160 Speaker 4: time just trying to tear down Republicans. 427 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:37,400 Speaker 3: That seems to be their only platform right now. 428 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,399 Speaker 9: Yeah, they'll make Donald Trump the number one issue in 429 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:44,200 Speaker 9: the campaign. It'll be all personality driven, not policy driven. 430 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 9: But they're going to have a harder time vilifying me. 431 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 9: I grew up on a dairy farm just over the 432 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,640 Speaker 9: border in western Wisconsin with my seven brothers and sisters. 433 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 9: I mean, we've figured out what hard work was early 434 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 9: in life, common sense, how to make ends meet. And 435 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 9: I've been a lifelong Wisconsin that has raised a family here. 436 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 9: I mean, we've been able to live the American dream. 437 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:07,480 Speaker 9: And that's the message I'm going to take to the 438 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,160 Speaker 9: people who state of Wisconsin, and I think we can 439 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 9: get that message to people. Now. Our challenge, John is 440 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 9: going to be those people who don't always come out 441 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:20,359 Speaker 9: and vote every election. We have to motivate them, and 442 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:24,879 Speaker 9: we have to do that with bold colors, clear contrasts. 443 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 9: You have to have that clear contrast with the other side. 444 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,400 Speaker 9: The other side. Are they talking about policy as you're 445 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 9: alluding to, of course not. It is all personality driven. 446 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 9: We need to talk about policy and talk about how 447 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 9: men and girls' sports, sanctuary cities in the state of Wisconsin. 448 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 9: We're going to have safe streets. We're going to emphasize 449 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 9: those issues that are pre eminent for the people to 450 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:51,400 Speaker 9: state of Wisconsin. Lower property taxes and then freeze them. 451 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 9: We're going to do things that are going to benefit 452 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 9: everyone in the state of Wisconsin. 453 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 4: Well, last thing before I let you go this morning 454 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:03,440 Speaker 4: again talking with Resent in Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate Tom Tiffany, the. 455 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:04,200 Speaker 3: Issue of immigration. 456 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 4: You know, it's not talked about as much apart from 457 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 4: the situations relating to immigrations and customs enforcement. You know, 458 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 4: you don't see Democrats talking about the dramatic reduction in 459 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 4: individuals coming into the country, especially and more specifically comparatively 460 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:26,879 Speaker 4: speaking to the years that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris 461 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:29,440 Speaker 4: we were in office. 462 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 3: I'm curious your perspective right now. 463 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,119 Speaker 4: I mean, the majority of the conversations we've had over 464 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 4: the past few years have been regarding immigration in the 465 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:37,719 Speaker 4: run up to last year's election. 466 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 3: Where is your. 467 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 4: Head at right now relating to that particular issue. Apart 468 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:46,160 Speaker 4: from the controversies that Democrats bring up, relating to what 469 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:51,639 Speaker 4: immigrations and customs enforcement is currently doing in deporting criminals 470 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 4: that are here in the country illegally. 471 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 9: Yeah, you know, I think it's come down from one 472 00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:59,399 Speaker 9: either number one or number two in terms of issues, 473 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 9: because you have a president that's resolved the issue. The 474 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 9: border is now secure, he showed how it could be done. 475 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 9: But we're still seeing the residual effects, including in Wisconsin 476 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:14,120 Speaker 9: where we have people that are here illegally committing crimes, 477 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 9: oftentimes repeated crimes. And then you have those same people, 478 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 9: the leftist Democrats, who will defend them to keep them 479 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 9: in this country though they're repeat offenders. So the issue 480 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 9: still is out there, but it's not as prominent as 481 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 9: it once was because it's been solved them. It's much 482 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:33,400 Speaker 9: like the price of eggs. Remember that was the first 483 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,160 Speaker 9: thing they attacked the president. I'm back on January twentieth, 484 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,719 Speaker 9: price of eggs go down.
