Corey Bowman, 6 00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:17,439 Speaker 1: Welcome back to the fifty five Carse Morning Show on 7 00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:20,120 Speaker 1: the heels of your debate against aftab Provall last night 8 00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:24,160 Speaker 1: at Xavier. How you feeling this morning, Corey, Well. 9 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 2: I'm killing a lot better. I just stopped by my 10 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:29,040 Speaker 2: shop and got my first quartato for the day, so 11 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 2: it's going to be a good day today, sir. How 12 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,200 Speaker 2: you doing great to have be on the show. 13 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:35,159 Speaker 1: It's great. So you know Wednesday night at the smitham 14 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 1: and fundraiser, I mean, I know you pretty well, Corey. 15 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 1: I mean I've talked to you a lot on the air, 16 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,840 Speaker 1: I've talked to you off air. I've heard you comment 17 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:44,760 Speaker 1: and in no way, shape or form what I ever 18 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 1: like to declare you as some sort of maga conservative, 19 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:52,479 Speaker 1: which apparently is exactly what aftab Provall came out. We 20 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: created a drinking game yesterday in anticipation in debate anytime 21 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 1: someone mentions Trump or MAGA. That was a shot. And 22 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 1: of course he accused you of being a MAGA Republican. 23 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 1: I don't know why the audience. Somebody said that, he 24 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:07,039 Speaker 1: said you're a MAGA extremist, and the audience booting. So 25 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 1: I don't know why the audience is booing. And the 26 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 1: fact that he represents MAGA. I mean, you either support 27 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 1: the Trump agenda or you don't. You can't run for 28 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 1: mayor and not be concerned with the federal employees who 29 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,480 Speaker 1: are getting fired, not be concerned with the racializing of 30 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 1: our own public safety challenges here in community. Dude, I 31 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 1: have never heard you racialize anything. I've never heard you 32 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 1: even address federal level funding and spending because you're not 33 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 1: running for an office that controls or has anything to 34 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: do with it. That did that really irk you? I 35 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 1: guess this is my fundamental question. Did you feel like, 36 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 1: oh my god, I have to actually spend time pointing 37 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:43,279 Speaker 1: this reality out? 38 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 2: Well? I don't know. It's because basically we knew that 39 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 2: these were going to be the talking points. You know, 40 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 2: the playbook's always the same. And for me, like you said, 41 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 2: we're running this race for Cincinnati, and so our biggest 42 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 2: battle that we've had throughout the entire year is just 43 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 2: showing people that we're not running this based on copy 44 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 2: and pasting national politics. I have opinions on national politics, 45 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 2: like everybody does, but that really shouldn't be brought to 46 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,079 Speaker 2: city hall when it comes to just fixing your roads 47 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 2: and making sure the money is spent properly and make 48 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:18,119 Speaker 2: sure that your crime is in order. These are practical 49 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:22,080 Speaker 2: issues that require just common sense solutions, and I think 50 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 2: that's what people are tired of, you know. And people 51 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 2: were booing when that was brought up, because that's what 52 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 2: people are fed up with. They're fed up with people 53 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 2: from city hall trying to act like they're on a 54 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 2: national stage when really we need to be focusing on 55 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 2: the people that are on the streets of Cincinnati. And 56 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 2: that's it. 57 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 1: Well, and they kept coming back with it. I noticed 58 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 1: you at the end of the debate. They just ask 59 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 1: you out, pointy, Plank, if there's anything you disagree with 60 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:51,359 Speaker 1: Trump on again. I mean, Trump's dealing with global affairs, warfare, 61 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: he's dealing with interstate commerce issues, fighting like national drug crises. 62 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I know what they're trying to do, Corey. 63 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,119 Speaker 1: I'm not an idiot. But you know, it's I think personally, 64 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 1: it's insulting to the audience in the crowd, who are 65 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,919 Speaker 1: presumably residents of the City of Cincinnati or care about 66 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: city Cincinnati issues for him to be pushing things on 67 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 1: a national level. Christopher Smithlan has harped on this for 68 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 1: years and years. Why are they passing ordinances in the 69 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: city of Cincinnati saying something like we disagree with Israel. 70 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:23,359 Speaker 1: You got no connection with Israel. Get back to the 71 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: business of the City of Cincinnati. 72 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:29,119 Speaker 2: Damn it, No, you're absolutely true. You know, there's obviously 73 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 2: things from the national level that impact local citizens. And 74 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 2: so if there is clear anti Semitism, that there's clear 75 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 2: discrimination against a certain group for a race, that's stuff 76 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 2: that we have to stand up against no matter what. 77 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 2: But you know what's funny is that I was at 78 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 2: the BOE and I was casting my vote. I'm a 79 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 2: little biased. I won't tell you who I voted for. 80 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 2: But as I'm there, I speak with a gentleman and 81 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 2: he's wearing a Palestine sweatshirt on, and initially he's yelling 82 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 2: at my guys because he disagrees with a lot of 83 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 2: stuff from a national standpoint of what the conservative movement 84 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 2: stands for. I spoke with him for five minutes, and 85 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 2: I kid you not, After five minutes, he realized what 86 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 2: we were running this race on and he told me 87 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 2: point blank, I'm going to switch my vote from mathtab 88 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 2: to you because of what you've just told me right now. 89 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,839 Speaker 2: So I just think that that is symbolic of what 90 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 2: this campaign has to represent, is just getting people to realize, 91 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 2: we have to run this for Cincinnati. We have to 92 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 2: take care of our own streets. You know. One thing 93 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 2: last night they kept saying, and I don't know, I 94 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 2: don't know whether he just has people in his ear 95 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 2: that flat out lie, but he kept saying that I've 96 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 2: called for the National Guard to come to Cincinnati. And 97 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 2: what I've what I've told people over and over and 98 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 2: over is that number one, we don't have violent riots 99 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 2: currently in the streets. That's not the case, that we 100 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 2: don't need it. Number Two, a city that's run properly 101 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,279 Speaker 2: can actually take care of its own crime. But that's 102 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,839 Speaker 2: not what's happening right now. We got to change this 103 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 2: from internal structure with it. 104 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,039 Speaker 1: We'll pause, bring Corey Bowman back. We'll talk about the 105 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: crime specific conversation in exchange, but also I want to 106 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 1: talk to him about the exchange about controlling one's own 107 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 1: destiny in one's own neighborhood within this city of Cincinnati, 108 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,279 Speaker 1: insofar as property goes. I thought that was rather revealing 109 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: what atab Provoll revealed yesterday. A thirty six right now 110 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: more with Corey Bowman after these brief words. Fifty five 111 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 1: KRC is your five million talk station. Brian Towmins with 112 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 1: Corey Bowman, mayoral candidate. Find him on line Corey Bowman 113 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 1: dot com. We have a choice and it is open 114 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: voting right now. I want to pivot over to housing 115 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:36,919 Speaker 1: and development and have to have Provall was on and 116 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: on yesterday Corey Bowman about the need to create and 117 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 1: build affordable housing. I think he claims he wants to build. 118 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 1: He personally is going to get a hammer out and 119 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: build forty thousand affordable housing units. Before we get to 120 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: the question of what exactly is affordability and is it 121 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: the same in any given neighborhood. He sure as hell 122 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 1: pointed out that you do not really have the right 123 00:05:55,839 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 1: to self determination. We need confordable housing. He's firm in that. 124 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 1: In order to solve that crisis, we have to build them, 125 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 1: and he said the prior zoning laws were what was 126 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 1: binding or hindering progress. Now, I know you'll have a 127 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,159 Speaker 1: word or two on that. In your neighborhood specifically, you 128 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 1: know what was hindering progress. But he said sometimes that 129 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: the council and the mayor's always need to disagree with 130 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,239 Speaker 1: residents in one part of town in order to address 131 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: the needs of residence in the entire city, saying we're 132 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: going to do the hard, sometimes unpopular work of building 133 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 1: housing across the city because pole after pole will show 134 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 1: you we need this kind of affordable housing. I mean, 135 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: he's isn't he basically saying that if you move in 136 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: the City of Cincinnati, you're under threat or risk of 137 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 1: having your neighborhood completely transformed in spite of what you want, 138 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: on popular as may be, by them foisting a bunch 139 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,600 Speaker 1: of affordable housing in your neighborhood. That is not exactly 140 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 1: a welcome sign for moving to the city of Cincinnati. 141 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 1: Corey Bowman, your response, now, I think that you. 142 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 2: Know the argument on the other side is that you 143 00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 2: know what we're seeing from the federal government dictatorship than 144 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 2: you know, taking authority where you shouldn't. But that's exactly 145 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 2: what we saw last night from from atpad Purval and 146 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 2: he said, he said, the real part out loud is 147 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 2: that basically, no matter what you feel about your neighborhoods, 148 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 2: no matter what you feel about development, we are going 149 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 2: to issue our own development, our own standards on zoning, 150 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 2: and you're not going to have anything to say about it. 151 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 2: And I don't think that's right Cincinnati especially. You know, 152 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 2: it's one thing to regulate certain things downtown because you 153 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 2: have to have businesses and you have to have residential 154 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 2: all working together. But we are a city of fifty 155 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 2: two neighborhoods. Every neighborhood has its own uniqueness, its own character. 156 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 2: And if you're sitting there saying that we're going to 157 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 2: copy and paste our own design, development and zoning regulations 158 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 2: on you and you basically can't say anything about it, well, 159 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 2: in my mind, that is not properly representing the people 160 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 2: of your city. And I don't think that's right. You know, 161 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 2: we see that in the West End. They've put somewhereabouts 162 00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 2: you can you know, basically prove about sixty seven to 163 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 2: tenty percent, but really it's about you know, closer to 164 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 2: eighty percent of affordable housing, and they keep calling it 165 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 2: affordable housing, right, government subsidized housing, you know, like I 166 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 2: chokingly said, but I knew the fact that it was 167 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 2: thirty sixty percent. Ami. I have a friend that's developing 168 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 2: a property across the street from my cop shopping to 169 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 2: an eighty percent. Ami, it's just government subsidized housing. To 170 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 2: try to put it down, the problem is is that 171 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 2: what they're funding is organizations in goos and people that 172 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 2: don't have the tenant's best interest at heart. They're funneling 173 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,439 Speaker 2: money and then on top of that, they're building concrete 174 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 2: blocks that basically feel like a prison, and they really 175 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 2: are because they're keeping people in poverty the rest of 176 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 2: their lives. There's no pathway out. And I couldn't disagree 177 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 2: more with the policy of what's been happening currently. 178 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 1: Well, you may have answered my question because earlier in 179 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: the program, I was saying, what is affordable housing? Just 180 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 1: like you are, No one ever puts a dollar sign 181 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 1: on it necessarily, but even if they did, if you 182 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:02,839 Speaker 1: build a complex in Hyde Park, six hundred square foot apartments, 183 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: that's going to command a certain rent because it's in 184 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: a certain neighborhood. Now, if you built the same complex 185 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: in your neighborhood in the West End, would a six 186 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: hundred square foot apartment command the same rent as an 187 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 1: apartment in Hyde Park? Location Location Location, I would suggest perhaps, 188 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 1: at least as of right now, Hyde Park's going to 189 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: command a much higher rent because of market forces and desirability. 190 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 2: No. Absolutely, And honestly, that's why the entirety of the 191 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 2: West Side is so up in arms right now is 192 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 2: because you can buy a house with the same property, 193 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 2: same architectural design on the west side, same beauty, same character, 194 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 2: and then you buy the same house on the east side, 195 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 2: and the east side is going to go for one 196 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 2: hundred and two hundred thousand more. And so what happens 197 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 2: is that these policies, when it comes to the affordable housing, 198 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,960 Speaker 2: ultimately you're kind of trying to mimic or you're not mimic, 199 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 2: but you're trying to dictate the market. And when you 200 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:57,439 Speaker 2: do that property value just goes down. Overall, you're concentrating 201 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 2: the poverty. Therefore, you're concentrating the c And then one 202 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 2: thing I'd say to the opposition is that you're showing 203 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 2: up for photo ops to pay Black lives matter on 204 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 2: city Hall, but really do black lives matter when it 205 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 2: comes to this affordable housing. From what I've seen, you 206 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 2: concentrate poverty and crime, which inadversely it affects the black communities. 207 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 2: And that's something that we have to fight. We have 208 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 2: to give everybody the opportunity to have a step up 209 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 2: in prosperity. And that's not what's happening. 210 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 1: That is not what's happening. All right, We're going to 211 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,319 Speaker 1: pivot over to crime. We'll take a quick break right now, 212 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 1: bring Corey Bowman back to talk about the back and 213 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 1: forth yesterday during the debate at David University on crime. 214 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 1: One more with Mayor oal candidate Corey Bowman again online 215 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,680 Speaker 1: at Coreybowman dot com. Let's be right back fifty five 216 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 1: KRC Sports Station. I share that sentiment on a Friday, 217 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 1: umens on the line he was involved in the debate 218 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: with Mayor. I have to have purval. I think he 219 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 1: did an excellent job last night, Corey Bowman and got 220 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 1: one more debate with the mayor. I guess real quick 221 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: here on the property thing, I think Mayor I have 222 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 1: to have provol said something along the lines the city 223 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: camp become a city just solely for wealthy people. But 224 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: isn't that exactly what they did when they gentrified over 225 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 1: the Rhine, kicking a lot of longtime residents out because 226 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 1: they can no longer afford it, moving in a bunch 227 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: of urban hipsters because they came with jobs and salaries 228 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 1: that are taxed, Corey, wasn't that the point of gentrification? 229 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 2: No? And then also in the current area of OTR, 230 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,560 Speaker 2: everybody wants to talk about South of Liberty, That's where 231 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 2: the mayor has all the videos. Nobody wants to talk 232 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:48,319 Speaker 2: about North of Liberty. You know, last night I invited 233 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 2: the guests Ronda Winn to be on the front road. Now, 234 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 2: I'll be honest with you. I've had talked with her 235 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 2: and she wasn't fully convinced about the race yet. She's 236 00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:00,040 Speaker 2: just trying to get justice for her daughter's murder that 237 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 2: happened north of Liberty in OTR. And still to this day, 238 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 2: the mayor has not reached out to her. Last night, 239 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 2: he had a perfect example to meet her and didn't 240 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 2: meet her on the front row. And then so afterwards 241 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 2: Ms Ronda comes up to me. He says, I'm with you. 242 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 2: We're going to get this thing. And so those are 243 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 2: things that we're seeing, is that when you talk about 244 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:22,119 Speaker 2: the gentrification or when you talk about these housing policies, 245 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 2: it ultimately leads to concentrated crime, and that is leaving 246 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,079 Speaker 2: victims at the hands of all these criminals. And that's 247 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 2: what we've got to stop. It's basically a trickle down 248 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,360 Speaker 2: in competence from the top down. 249 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 1: Well, and based on his comments last night, you think 250 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: Mary have to have Provoll was the best friend of 251 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 1: the police departments all we've worked together. We're busy doing 252 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: this and that we're going to hire more police officers. 253 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: But you pointed out an excellent point, and he has 254 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 1: been very reactive as opposed to proactive when it comes 255 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 1: to policing. What happens. We have Sarah Herringer's husband stab, 256 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:54,960 Speaker 1: the death in their apartment and over the rhine that 257 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 1: through tremendous outrage. That's when we found out that no, 258 00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,199 Speaker 1: they're not monitoring ankle bracelets out in the world. And 259 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 1: behold then of course she had the late July beat down. Holly. 260 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 1: We all saw the video and I've talked to her 261 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:06,560 Speaker 1: and had her on the program. You've met her and 262 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: talked to her. 263 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 2: He was the night she was good. The mayor failed 264 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,479 Speaker 2: to talk with her last night. We had ample opportunity 265 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 2: before and after to speak with multiple individuals in the room, 266 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 2: and he did not speak with any of those victims. 267 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 2: Die and Buy It on the front row last night. 268 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 1: And we made it to the national stage for that incident, 269 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: which prompted him to do what implement curfew enforcement at 270 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 1: least pay lip service to it in certain neighborhoods, improved 271 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 1: policing in certain neighborhoods, and a cry to hire more 272 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 1: police officers. All of this was in reaction to the 273 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,559 Speaker 1: post national headlines. What had he done prior to that, though, 274 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 1: is really what I'm wondering, especially since he hired on 275 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 1: Iris Rowley as a very well paid consultant who is 276 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 1: nothing but an apparently an agitator who actually interferes with 277 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: police doing their work. 278 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 2: One thing they kept saying last night on the other 279 00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 2: side is that Corey doesn't know what he's doing, and 280 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 2: that came right back and said, you didn't get the 281 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 2: endorsement of FOP. I got the FOP. I think they 282 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 2: know what they're doing, and then you didn't actually get 283 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 2: this just came out that he didn't get the endorsement 284 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 2: from the fire department either, and I believe that they 285 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 2: know what they're doing as well. So I think the 286 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 2: ultimate thing is that maybe after four years of being 287 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 2: in office, he doesn't know what he's doing. And that's 288 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 2: what we've got to bring to the table, because not 289 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 2: only just these professionals of public safety, but we cannot 290 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 2: forget the victims. The people that have been most affected 291 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 2: are the people like the Sarah Heringers, the Rohnda Wins, 292 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 2: the mother of Krishanda Win. You got to talk about 293 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 2: Holly who got beat She was one of the many 294 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 2: people that night that was trying to stop the violence. 295 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 2: She wasn't trying to instigate it, and she gets beat down, 296 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 2: and that's unacceptable in a major city in America. And 297 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 2: so we can talk about the staffs, the policy all 298 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 2: we want, but ultimately, if we fail to recognize the 299 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 2: victims and the people that have seen the consequences of 300 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 2: these all seas, then we're forgetting what it's all about. 301 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 1: And one final topic that was addressed toward the end, 302 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 1: I guess you're a hell no on increasing the income tax, 303 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 1: although after have provol welcomes an increase in income tax 304 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 1: apparently because he said, need to bring in money if 305 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: you want to accomplish what we want to do. Another 306 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 1: red flag. If you want to improve the desirability of 307 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 1: living in the city of Cincinnati, raising taxes is not 308 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 1: the right way to go from my perspective, Corey, your take. 309 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 2: Now, I had another guest last night. Her name was Taniqua, 310 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 2: and she is actually a business owner, Black business owner 311 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 2: woman in the city and very successful. But what she 312 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 2: told me was that when she was down on her luck, 313 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 2: she went through slum lord after slum lord, and she 314 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 2: was getting abused, she was getting taken advantage of. And 315 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 2: this is her and her children that were in terrible 316 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 2: living situations, and all these slum lords were funded by 317 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 2: the city. Well, then she buys her own property and 318 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 2: she's now a homeowner, and she's a renter now renter, 319 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 2: but she's a landlord. And she's told me that ever 320 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 2: since she's done this, she has felt demonized or basically 321 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 2: felt like that she's guilty for being successful because she 322 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 2: has to pay into more fees, more taxes, more everything. 323 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 2: So that's the system that we're under right now, is 324 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 2: that we incentivize rendership, we incentivize being reliant on the government. 325 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 2: But if you want to have a successful business, if 326 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 2: you want to be a property owner, if you want 327 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 2: to own a single family home in the city, then 328 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 2: you are basically treated as the bad guy. And what 329 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 2: do you think those policies are going to do. The 330 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 2: taxes have to come from somewhere. The taxes have to 331 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 2: come from business, they have to come from property, they 332 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 2: have to come from income. And the thing is is 333 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 2: that if the taxes aren't coming from that or even 334 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 2: the earning tax, people are going to stop spending their 335 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 2: money in Cincinnati. And then all of a sudden, you're 336 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 2: going to be left with a lot of people that 337 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 2: will rely on the government in renting, but they're not 338 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 2: going to be able to step out of that, and 339 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 2: you're going to leave the city worse and worse and 340 00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:00,120 Speaker 2: worse and more of a despicit. They're going to have 341 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 2: less money on the books, and it's just not going 342 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 2: to do well for the future days of Cincinnati. 343 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:07,479 Speaker 1: Corey Bowman sounds me like you have a good recipe 344 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 1: for success as mayor of the City of Cincinnati. It 345 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,400 Speaker 1: doesn't bother me a whit that you haven't held political 346 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,159 Speaker 1: office before. Everybody starts somewhere. You're surrounded by good people. 347 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 1: I know you've got great ideas for who the city 348 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 1: manager might be. Hopefully you get a Steve Gooden, and 349 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 1: I had Christopher Smithman and Liz Keating along with you. 350 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 1: There are options, are our choices. You can start voting 351 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: and you maybe should have already twenty five days and 352 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 1: eleven hours left.
