This morning Number 20 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 1: thirteen shot down. Yes, the Democrats blocked another funding effort, 21 00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:27,679 Speaker 1: the Continuing Resolution, keeping funding levels at twenty twenty four levels. 22 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 1: The Biden administration levels. We all know the arguments, we 23 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 1: all know the reasons why we have a shutdown. It's 24 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:34,199 Speaker 1: the only thing that Democrats have by way of leverage. 25 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 1: And I'll get into that detail just a moment here 26 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: eight oh five, looking forward to having retired Captain russ Neville, 27 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 1: since a police department. Captain russ Neville a storied law 28 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 1: enforcement family. You know who his sister is, police chief 29 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: three Satichi and Rick Neville's brother was having retired Hamilton 30 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:57,559 Speaker 1: County Sheriff or Hamilon County Sheriff's Office captain. So they've 31 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: got like decades and decades and decade aids of law 32 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: enforcement experience. Well here from russ Neville, see who's going 33 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 1: to support his sister's position? Is he going to go 34 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:08,079 Speaker 1: after the administration? I know signal ninety nine. If you're 35 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 1: out this signal. Been reading what you're writing on fate 36 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 1: on Facebook. She's got her thumb on the pulse of 37 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 1: everything going on in this mess, including documents and internal exchanges, 38 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: pointing out that indeed Police Chief Teresadiji was not free 39 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: to go it alone and do what she thought by 40 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: the way of best practices in law enforcement. She had 41 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 1: to get approval now we'll get to the details on 42 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: that a little bit later as well, but now looking 43 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 1: real good. As far as I'm concerned for aftab Purval. 44 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 1: The only problem is is anybody in the city of 45 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 1: sincer only paying attention to this and using it and 46 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 1: factoring into the equation of whether or not he is 47 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 1: worthy to continue to be the mayor of the City 48 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: of Cincinnati. I mean, it really has nothing to show 49 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 1: for the four years he's been in that office as 50 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 1: far as I'm concerned. He did his best efforts to 51 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: prove that he's actually done something in his open letter 52 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: that was published in the enquire but I couldn't find 53 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:57,679 Speaker 1: anything solid in there anyway. Russ Neville eight oh five 54 00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,359 Speaker 1: will be in studio for a full half hour and 55 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: the follow by Judge in an Apolitano Wednesday's at eight 56 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,239 Speaker 1: thirty we get the judge today, jailed in America for 57 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,239 Speaker 1: free speech. Sounds like something to be going on in 58 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 1: the United Kingdom, where they don't have freemom speech. We 59 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: do have it enshrined in our constitution, and thank God 60 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: for it. But there's a lot of folks in high 61 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:17,799 Speaker 1: positions and prosecutor's office, and well, I don't really believe that. 62 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,799 Speaker 1: So the story he unfolds and explains in his op 63 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: ed piece, which I fortunately get a copy of early, 64 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: really are horrific and hard to believe that it's going 65 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: on in America. That'll be at eight thirty with Judge 66 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,519 Speaker 1: and an Apolitano. Ah cool brother Dre is coming back 67 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 1: on tomorrow. Andre Ewing another outspoken critic of the Provoll administration. 68 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: Former retired police officer. He is thirty years under his belt. 69 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: I have tremendous respect for Dre and what he says. 70 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 1: He is passionate about his position. You may be passionate 71 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: about your position as well. Feel free to voice it 72 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: here on the fifty five Carency Morning Show five on three, seven, four, nine, 73 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two to three 74 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: Talk Pound five point fifty on at and T all Right, 75 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 1: check it out here. Thirteenth time. Democrats yesterday voted number thirteen, 76 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 1: blocking the House pass bill to reopen the federal government 77 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 1: fifty four to forty five. That's kind of what the 78 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: running tally has been. You have the three Democrat members 79 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: of the Senate. You got Fetterman, Cortes, Mosto, and Angus 80 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 1: King Kings from Maine, Catherine Cortez Motso from Nevadam. There's 81 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: the three need a handful more, need sixty total votes 82 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 1: to get over the hurdle, which is lang squarely in 83 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: the Democrats lap, and hell is getting ready to be paid. 84 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: So Johnson showed a chart yesterday. Speaker Johnson, here's his 85 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: point four specific points. Mate one, Democrat voters votes rather 86 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 1: are required to open the government. Fair enough, you need 87 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:53,040 Speaker 1: sixty in the Senate. So that statement obviously is one 88 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 1: of those no kidding kind of statements. But this is 89 00:04:56,680 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 1: the setup. Need Democrats to open the government. All of 90 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:06,479 Speaker 1: the Republicans are voting to open the government. So there's 91 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: your point. Number two. Democrats have voted thirteen times to 92 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 1: keep the government closed. Fact Number three Democrats refuse to 93 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 1: fund the government unless Congress restores left wing projects. Fact 94 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: that's their argument. Their counterproposal to continuing last year's funding 95 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 1: levels was a one point five trillion dollar add on, 96 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 1: which is a non starter. And finally, the point number four, 97 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: Democrats admit to using pain as their leverage and boast 98 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 1: every day gets better for us. And we've got a 99 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:41,479 Speaker 1: couple of quotes on that. Senator Chris Coons admitted that, yes, 100 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 1: just the other day, admitted on National TV. And for 101 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:48,840 Speaker 1: the folks that are going to miss out on their 102 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 1: snap benefits, he's willing to starve you because it's the 103 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 1: only leverage they have. Pain heap down upon you a 104 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:01,040 Speaker 1: program created by Democrats to help those online life's margins. Please, 105 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 1: Dear God, we need to help them. It's our Christian obligation. 106 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: I got a word or two of beg Kevin Newson 107 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 1: here in a moment on that anyway, he says. Kuhne says, 108 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 1: it's principally a fight over healthcare and trying to prevent 109 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: what's going to happen on November first, which is millions 110 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: of Americans get notices that their health insurance is going 111 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,359 Speaker 1: to double in costs. That'll impact Americans. Republicans control the House, 112 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,479 Speaker 1: fast forwarding in his quote the Senate and the White House. Frankly, 113 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 1: this is our only moment of leverage. And although a 114 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:33,919 Speaker 1: very unpleasant tool to use. Hm Housemann already whip. Katherine Clark, 115 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: Democrat Massachusetts, already said something like that a couple of 116 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: weeks ago. We take that responsibility very seriously. That families 117 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:44,479 Speaker 1: are going to suffer her words, noting that families are 118 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 1: going to suffer, and they take the responsibility very seriously. Quote, 119 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: but it's one of the few leverage times we have, 120 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,039 Speaker 1: so heaping pain upon life, smart folks, on life's margins 121 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 1: in order to expand the role of government and of 122 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 1: course create the fallacy of the fau view that Obamacare 123 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,919 Speaker 1: can survive on its own without propping up your insurance payments. 124 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom snap, benefits are going to be cut, so 125 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: he took to the Bible. Yes, California Governor Gavin Newsom 126 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 1: invoked Biblical teachings in order to guilt you into well 127 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 1: expanding Obamacare the subsidies. Actually, he was talking yesterday in Sacramento. 128 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 1: He cited the teachings from Matthew, Isaiah Luke and Proverbs 129 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 1: as evidence that feeding the poor is, in his words, 130 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 1: core and central to what it is to align to 131 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 1: God's will. Quote, it's not a suggestion in the Old 132 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 1: Testament and New Testament. Newsom said, these guys need to 133 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: stop the bs in Washington. They're sitting there in their 134 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: prayer breakfast. Maybe they got an edited version of President 135 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: Donald Trump's Bible and they edited out all of that out, 136 00:07:56,120 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: Cruelty is the policy. Oh wait, wait, wait, wait, crush 137 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 1: just admit that it's cruel to keep the government shut down, 138 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: but it's the only leverage they got. Cruelty is the 139 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: policy of the Democrats at this moment in time. Gavin, 140 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: But who are in the hell are you to cite Scripture? 141 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 3: Uh? 142 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: Can I get a headcount here? How many people believe 143 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 1: we live in a theocracy? Joe? Is there a Church 144 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 1: of the United States like they have a Church of England. Now, 145 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 1: you didn't get the memo on that one. Neither did 146 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 1: I founding fathers lived under the thumb of having to 147 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 1: deal with the Church of England when they were colonies. 148 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 1: They were forced to pay taxes to keep churches down 149 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 1: the street open even if you were't a member of 150 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:40,560 Speaker 1: the church. They said, no free exercise of religion. There 151 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: is no establishment of religion in the United States of America. 152 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: So if you're invoking scripture, just stop for a moment 153 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 1: and say, hmm, what if Gavin Newsan started citing the Qoran? 154 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 1: How come Newson didn't cite the Koran in reference what 155 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: Mohammad said about I don't know the snap program or 156 00:08:56,520 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 1: something render under Caesar what's due sees or the state 157 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 1: exists independently of your religious obligations. So something I've been 158 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: screaming about for years here in the morning show. You're 159 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 1: in the middle of a church. You're a it's maybe 160 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: your pastor or whoever you are in front of in 161 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 1: some religious institutions, if it's Christianity, notably no theologian am I. 162 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 1: But if there's a priest up there, or a bishop 163 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: or anybody else leader of the church saying you need 164 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: to vote for some government policy so that feeds the 165 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 1: homeless or whatever. That's offloading the religious obligations that you have. 166 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: State independent from church. Church teachings rule the people who 167 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 1: believe in the faith. Your teaching requires you perhaps read 168 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 1: this scripture yourself and see what your obligations are. Those 169 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: are your obligations. Don't go offloading them to someone else, unless, 170 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 1: of course, you're paying a sizable chunk of those. I'm 171 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 1: sure there's a lot of Christian folks out there that 172 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 1: these I think these big government programs are great. Maybe 173 00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: they're not paying any federal income taxes, so literally they 174 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 1: are taking from their brother to eat off these programs. 175 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: I don't know, at least there's some measure of accountability 176 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 1: when you're doing it through the church. You know you 177 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:12,559 Speaker 1: can view where your money is going you like, for example, 178 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 1: I mentioned Matthew twenty five the other day. The ideal 179 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: charity to give to if you want to serve you, 180 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: if you want to help people truly, because they're overhead, 181 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 1: they don't charge a lot of overhead. Most all of 182 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:27,200 Speaker 1: the donations go to the relief effort. So you can 183 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 1: fulfill your Christian mission by handing over money to Matthew 184 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 1: twenty five, which will see that that money gets into 185 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 1: the hand of the poor people. Kadah, how's FEMA working out? 186 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: But we don't live in a theocracy, and I love 187 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:45,199 Speaker 1: how democrats and sometimes Republicans pick and choose when they're 188 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 1: going to start citing scripture and trying to heap guilt 189 00:10:47,600 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 1: on you because of some government program. Unbelievable. Apparently Press 190 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: this point repeatedly yesterday, saying leaders who cite religion should 191 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 1: reflect those values in policy. Oh he wants religion incorporated 192 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:13,440 Speaker 1: into government. Huh, what the acl you would say about that? 193 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 1: They're the ones typically suing over the government funding of 194 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 1: literally anything relating to religion. I don't know it irks me. 195 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: And you got this lawsuit by all the states suing 196 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:39,720 Speaker 1: the Trump administration for withhold of the food funding. They're 197 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 1: arguing in the USDA violated federal law by planning to 198 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:46,839 Speaker 1: suspend benefits under SNAPS SNAP program. I guess they want 199 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: the king to decree where congressionally allocated money. The power 200 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 1: of the person lies in Congress where congressionally allocated money 201 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,320 Speaker 1: should go. Oh, I guess we need a king, don't 202 00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 1: we Because a king can waive his king magic wand 203 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 1: and automatically put funds where he believes funds should go, 204 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 1: and maybe take funds away where he doesn't believe they 205 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 1: should go. But you know where are we on that messaging? 206 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 1: Lawsuit asks the judge to overturn the administration's earlier directive 207 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 1: instructing states with old benefits required USDA and require the 208 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 1: USDA to use all available funds to help keep SNAP 209 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 1: benefits flowing in November, which is odd because the math 210 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 1: doesn't work out. Even if they prevail on this lawsuit, 211 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 1: they're going to be about four billion dollars short now. 212 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 1: These planets in lawsuit disputing that the Trump administration statements 213 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 1: that it does not have the legal authority to use 214 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: the five billion dollars remaining in emergency funds to pay 215 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 1: for at least part of Snap fun fact Snap which 216 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: requires more than eight billion dollars to pay November benefits alone. 217 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 1: So I'm not sure how they're going to divvy up 218 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: the five billion if they get it leveraged to, you know, 219 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 1: bring it over to the Snap program, but it's still 220 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:15,719 Speaker 1: not going to cover the nut. Oh and Snap recipients 221 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:23,959 Speaker 1: have gone online fuming over the anticipated cut off of 222 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 1: the benefits they're planning on looting. It's an interesting collection 223 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 1: of quotes we have from folks who went to TikTok 224 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 1: and Twitter and all these online sites to say exactly 225 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,959 Speaker 1: what they're gonna do if the Snap benefits don't come 226 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: in five eighteen. Right now, if you five KRCD talk station, 227 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 1: feel free to call five one, three, seven four nine 228 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,559 Speaker 1: fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two to three 229 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 1: talk or hit pound five fifty if you have an 230 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 1: AT and T Fund'll be right back. Fifty five KRC 231 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 1: five two. I have to be that kr seed you 232 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 1: talks to them. Now, what's gonna happen when Snap benefits stop? 233 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 1: I mean the lawsuit doesn't result in the five billion 234 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: dollars remaining, providing for partial one month of Snap benefits 235 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 1: reportedly nine billion dollars for a month SNAP recipient's going 236 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,680 Speaker 1: to TikTok now read, I realize this represents only a 237 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: fraction of the number of Snap recipients. Totally, forty two 238 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 1: million Americans, one in eight people nationwide get some Snap 239 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: benefits average three hundred and fifty bucks per month per household. 240 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: What are some of the people saying on Facebook? Apparently 241 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: Snap sent out an announcement via text week text message 242 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 1: to all Snap beneficiaries warning them of the pause in 243 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 1: the program that's showing up on November first. Just to 244 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 1: heads up, November first is the deadline government shutdown. It's 245 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 1: going to result in the payment's not going through. Here's 246 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 1: an illustration of the reaction from one angry recipient of 247 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 1: that text message or that message. I'm gonna tell you 248 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 1: straight up like this, I just got that text that 249 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 1: the link is definitely cut the F word off for November. 250 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 1: Y'all better stay the word out of my way in 251 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 1: these stores because I'm walking out with carts and I'm 252 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 1: not paying for s word.

Thank you 264 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 1: New York Post for letting me know that I didn't 265 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 1: know what the reference was. One blame Donald Trump, Donald Trump. 266 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 1: When the Democrats are needed to get the stat benefits 267 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 1: flowing again, Trump done f warded up. Let's just make 268 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 1: it clear. Okay, he's talking about people not getting food 269 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: stamps in November and probably not December. He better get 270 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 1: ready because it's about to go down. What you're gonna 271 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: learn is you don't play with and this one says 272 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 1: the black people's food stamps. I don't know that the 273 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 1: black people own the food stamp program. Anyway, This is 274 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 1: just a quote. Brian Thomas didn't come up with it 275 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: and make the full mistake of posting it. What you're 276 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 1: going to learn is you don't play with black people's 277 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 1: food stamps. Okay, so get ready because people are about 278 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: to just start taking sword. That doesn't even make any sense, 279 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 1: but nonetheless there it is posted for all to see. 280 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 1: So I guess stay out of grocery stores November first, 281 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 1: going forward, Jayson the phone Jay, You're gonna have to wait. 282 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 1: I look up, it's five twenty five, and it gives 283 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 1: me an opportunity to mention Gato Heaven Cemetery because they've 284 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 1: got something coming up and I'd like to pass it 285 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 1: along to you the all Old Soul's candle at Mann 286 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,400 Speaker 1: Happy Wednesday.

Let's start with Jay. 296 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 1: I got Tom on the line as well. Jay. Welcome, 297 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:31,159 Speaker 1: my friend. Good to hear from you. 298 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 5: Hey, good morning, Brian. On this twenty ninth day of 299 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 5: this glorious government shut down, we're at one hundred and 300 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 5: forty three billion dollars theoretically saved, and for the first 301 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 5: time of my life find myself siding with the Democrats 302 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,640 Speaker 5: in Washington, d C. To keep the government shut down. 303 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 1: That's good. 304 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 5: It's an odd place to be, it is, But I 305 00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:59,640 Speaker 5: also but I also have a Bible verse to share 306 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:03,680 Speaker 5: with Guest Newsome. It is a second Thessalonians three ten, 307 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,399 Speaker 5: which states for even when we were with you, we 308 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 5: gave you this rule, the one who is unwilling to 309 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 5: work shall not eat. Now that doesn't mean that the 310 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 5: Bible is in conflict with itself. The question we have 311 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 5: to ask is how many people on Snap are in 312 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,879 Speaker 5: need and how many of them refuse to work, and 313 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,439 Speaker 5: they're kind of identifying some of them are identifying themselves online. 314 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:33,200 Speaker 5: And I'm not saying all of them, but whenever they 315 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,919 Speaker 5: start threatening that they're going to loot and steal and 316 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 5: rob and be thieves, that kind of becomes self identification. 317 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 5: That there is certainly a certain segment of people on 318 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 5: Snap who are sluggards, who refuse to take accountability. And 319 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 5: as Vince Evratte Ellison points out in his book Iron Triangle, 320 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:55,919 Speaker 5: which I bring up from time to time, which you've 321 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 5: heard about on your program, thank you for that. They 322 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 5: are on the government program by choice. They have become 323 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 5: government slaves by choice. They have taken the deal which 324 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 5: says vote Democrat and we will put a check in 325 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:11,640 Speaker 5: your mailbox. And all you have to do is give 326 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 5: us your dignity, your power, your money, and and your pride, 327 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:23,360 Speaker 5: and we will continue to provide things like government funding. 328 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 5: But you just have to get back in your slaves, 329 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 5: get back in your prison, shut the door behind you, 330 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 5: and we will make sure that you don't have to work. 331 00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 5: And that is that is what we see on parade 332 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 5: point number two. I heard that government or I'm sorry, 333 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:44,120 Speaker 5: had government Speaker Johnson could open up the house, get 334 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 5: the Republicans in there, start working. On twelve appropriations in 335 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 5: the spirit of Thomas Massey. 336 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 6: Like get back to work. 337 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. 338 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 5: I also heard during this time the government shutdown, they've 339 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,879 Speaker 5: got some flexibility to start taking some of these executive 340 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,679 Speaker 5: orders and converting them to law. And if they might 341 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 5: be able to fast track that. Uh, first of all, 342 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 5: I don't know if that's true or not. I would 343 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 5: like to get somebody to read on it. And if 344 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:09,959 Speaker 5: that is true, then what we're seeing is the Speaker 345 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 5: of the House really has no desire to advance the 346 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 5: conservative agenda or do these twelve appropriations. 347 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 1: Why might that be? Jay, Do you think this has 348 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 1: anything to do with the Epstein vote that as soon 349 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 1: as Congress is well, as soon as the House is 350 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,640 Speaker 1: brought back from recess, that they're going to be advancing 351 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:25,400 Speaker 1: that vote. 352 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 5: There's about one hundred reasons we can come up with, 353 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 5: and all of them point to that they don't care 354 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 5: about us as much as they care about themselves. 355 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 1: Clearly, well, and thus is I'm just hastened to say, 356 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:40,640 Speaker 1: thus it has ever been? 357 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:45,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, No, you're absolutely right, You're you're you're absolutely right. 358 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 6: And this is the. 359 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 5: Problem with a large federal government. I'm making a new mantra, 360 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,640 Speaker 5: make states great again. Push all the power, push all 361 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 5: of the funding, push all the money back to the states. 362 00:20:57,840 --> 00:20:59,359 Speaker 7: I don't think we're ever going to see that in 363 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 7: our lifetime. 364 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 5: We've got you know, I'm not a big fan of 365 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,679 Speaker 5: the No Kings rally, but I don't know that we 366 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 5: can argue that we don't have this kingdom called Washington, 367 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 5: DC that holds all of the power, all the authority, 368 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 5: all the money. They became very small, very powerless, and 369 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 5: we get meet leaders like Mike DeWine. But speaking of him, 370 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 5: let's never vote Rhino again, and let's not vote Democrat. 371 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 5: I don't want to go on too long because I 372 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 5: really want to hear what brother Tom has to say. 373 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 1: I have a good day, Jay, fantastic.

I appreciate it. Yeah. 377 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:42,679 Speaker 6: I'm just he was reading my mind, I guess, and 378 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 6: we're all I get great minds, think alike. Maybe Yeah, 379 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:50,400 Speaker 6: people are getting upset. I'm gonna throw out a suggestion, 380 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 6: And if you're going to go into a Walmart, why 381 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,120 Speaker 6: don't you stop with the customer service desk to get 382 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 6: an application while you're there, because clearly you're able to 383 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 6: get up and function and do stuff. You're able to 384 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 6: go walk through the store and shop and steal some 385 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 6: s word. Then you're able to stock shelves, and you're 386 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:12,359 Speaker 6: physically capable of doing all kinds of things. Yeah, so 387 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:16,199 Speaker 6: uh yeah, yeah, let's uh, let's uh, let's turn that 388 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:21,440 Speaker 6: energy that you have into some productive for society and 389 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 6: uh and stop being such a drain on society. And 390 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:26,879 Speaker 6: I say that, I want to make sure I counter 391 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 6: it with obviously there are people out there that need help. 392 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:34,919 Speaker 6: Until we get this this, if we ever get this 393 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 6: situation turned around where people are are doing it, uh, 394 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 6: taking care of people and using charity properly instead of 395 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 6: just oh well, I don't need to worry about that 396 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:50,400 Speaker 6: those people got government funding. Yeah, so it basically makes us. 397 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,719 Speaker 1: Late, right, And then see that's where religious accountability. If 398 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 1: you if you think about charitable institutions generally speaking, if 399 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 1: they're private, they determine where the aid is going to go. 400 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:01,760 Speaker 1: They determine where the need is. And if they're out 401 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:03,719 Speaker 1: there in the world and they run and encounter somebody 402 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: who says they need aid, you might want to give 403 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 1: a measure of assistance to move forward until they are 404 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 1: on their feet again. And that's where a responsible charitable 405 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 1: organization can ensure that the lazy, the lethargic, those who 406 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 1: can work don't get the aid because they refuse to work. Listen, 407 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 1: we've offered you training, We've offered you education assistance. We've 408 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 1: shown you where these programs are that can facilitate your 409 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: entry into the workplace. You refuse to do any of that, ergo, 410 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 1: we are no longer going to support you, recognizing full 411 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 1: well that you're capable of engaging in employment. Where is 412 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 1: the work ethic? Tom? It used to be a point 413 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 1: in this nation's history if you were able to work 414 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: and you didn't work, society would take a dim view 415 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 1: of you. There was some measure of accountability. You're supposed 416 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 1: to participate if you're able, and that ultimately benefited you 417 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 1: because you had a job and a salary and a paycheck, 418 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 1: and then you could be free of this well unbelievably 419 00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 1: horrific concept called dependence on the dysfunctional government. Right, you're 420 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 1: gonna let him say his catchphrase, Joe, Oh he's still there, Tom. 421 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:18,200 Speaker 1: Maybe we did lose him.

But moving away from that, 660 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 1: go ahead and listen to the podcast at my five 661 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 1: o'clock hour. One on quite a teror on that one. 662 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:13,040 Speaker 1: Another op ed piece in the Journal but it's on 663 00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 1: the heels of quite quite a few articles I've been 664 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 1: talking about of late. We are going to get nuclear power, 665 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:22,480 Speaker 1: hopefully if we can avoid the interference by the climate 666 00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:26,959 Speaker 1: alarmist folks and their efforts to really put American oil 667 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:29,840 Speaker 1: and gas out of business, completely out of business. And 668 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:32,040 Speaker 1: they're doing that through Lawfair. I know we've heard about 669 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 1: Lawfair a lot, but this is why I love the journal. 670 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:37,840 Speaker 1: William P. Barr you can read it for yourself. He 671 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:40,319 Speaker 1: served as US Attorney General between ninety one and ninety 672 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:43,759 Speaker 1: three and between twenty nineteen to twenty twenty, and law 673 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:47,560 Speaker 1: firm does represent energy clients. But he makes a damn 674 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:52,280 Speaker 1: good argument. The Supreme Court can stop an unconstitutional carbon tax. 675 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 1: Now I had mentioned this before. Remember the United Nations 676 00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:59,120 Speaker 1: International Maritime Organization wanted to levy a global carbon tax 677 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:03,160 Speaker 1: on every Donald Trump said, ah, I got two words 678 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 1: for it. Ain't happy birthday. What authority does the UN have, 679 00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:08,560 Speaker 1: I mean even the audacity to suggest that they have 680 00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:12,560 Speaker 1: the authoritied attax randomly every country in the world for 681 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 1: some carbon output. No, you don't have that authority. It's 682 00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:19,839 Speaker 1: not part of the charter. Go to hell anyway, After 683 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 1: pointing out his actions on that. He says, but an 684 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:27,000 Speaker 1: equally insidious carbon tax has been quietly advancing in county 685 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:30,040 Speaker 1: courthouses across the United States in the form of climate 686 00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 1: lawfair targeting almost exclusively American industry, and the Supreme Court 687 00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:39,719 Speaker 1: has an opportunity to stop it. See right there. Over 688 00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:43,360 Speaker 1: the past few years, Blue States municipalities have filed dozens 689 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:48,760 Speaker 1: of tourtsuits and state courts against American energy companies, claiming 690 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:53,080 Speaker 1: hundreds of billions of dollars in damages. Get a load 691 00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 1: of this, he says. One point of funded estimate recently 692 00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:58,160 Speaker 1: claimed that the damages should total no less than twenty 693 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:04,320 Speaker 1: eight trill billion dollars, which is about the entire economic 694 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:10,360 Speaker 1: output of our country. Plaintiffs insists they're suing for local damages, 695 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 1: like you evil oil company damaged the soil here, and 696 00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:16,319 Speaker 1: you need to pay for it the way a planiff might, 697 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:19,920 Speaker 1: and well the way any planeff might if they've suffered damages. 698 00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 1: And they say they're not trying to set global climate policy. However, 699 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:27,040 Speaker 1: David Bookbinder let the cat out of the bag. Who 700 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 1: is he? He's the director of law and policy for 701 00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 1: a group called the Environmental Integrity Project also happens to 702 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:37,040 Speaker 1: be a lawyer representing Boulder County, Colorado, and its climate 703 00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 1: suit against two energy companies, sun Core Energy and Exxon Mobile. Now, sadly, 704 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:45,160 Speaker 1: the Colorado Supreme Court ruled in his client's favor and 705 00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:48,000 Speaker 1: allowed them to move forward with the lawsuits. Defendants have 706 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 1: asked the US Supreme Court to hear the appeal. Mister Bookbinder, 707 00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 1: recently participating in a Federalist Society panel that was discussing 708 00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:01,640 Speaker 1: the litigation, acknowledged that the lawsuits were rather a political 709 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:05,239 Speaker 1: tool to achieve environmental policy goals, not for local damages. 710 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:11,000 Speaker 1: Here's what he had he said. Essentially, the tort liability 711 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:15,000 Speaker 1: is an indirect carbon tax. You se an oil company, 712 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:17,840 Speaker 1: an oil company is liable. The oil company then passes 713 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:21,120 Speaker 1: that liability onto the people who are buying its products. 714 00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:25,640 Speaker 1: I would prefer an actual carbon tax, but if we 715 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:28,440 Speaker 1: can't get one of those, and I don't think anyone 716 00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:30,759 Speaker 1: on this panel would agree that Congress is likely to 717 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:33,839 Speaker 1: take on climate change anytime soon. So this is rather, 718 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:37,720 Speaker 1: you know, a somewhat convoluted way to achieve the goals 719 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 1: of a carbon tax. Close quote Bookbinder's admission confirms what 720 00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:47,239 Speaker 1: critics of these suits have been saying all along. This 721 00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:53,320 Speaker 1: litigation is not about compensation, It's about coercion. Climate lawfair 722 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 1: is a political strategy laundered through lawsuits, designed to force 723 00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 1: radical policy of energy poverty on a country who's elected 724 00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:04,720 Speaker 1: representatives have repeatedly declined to adopt such destructive measures. Pause 725 00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:07,400 Speaker 1: and think about that. We live in a representative form 726 00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:10,200 Speaker 1: of democracy. If we all were pushing for our representatives 727 00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:12,359 Speaker 1: to go down the climate tax road and have a 728 00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:16,120 Speaker 1: carbon tax implemented, maybe they might bend to this constituent's 729 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:18,719 Speaker 1: will and put one in place. The reality is we 730 00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:22,359 Speaker 1: don't want one. You can't even get Democrats to rally 731 00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:28,560 Speaker 1: around a carbon tax that's what we want. But because 732 00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:34,640 Speaker 1: these climate alarmists and hungry for their commissioned plaintiffs, lawyers 733 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:39,520 Speaker 1: are willing to represent probably nefarious outside interests like for example, maybe, 734 00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:42,080 Speaker 1: and I don't know definitively, where are these folks getting 735 00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:45,000 Speaker 1: bankroll Chinese Communist Party? Maybe they love when we go 736 00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:47,360 Speaker 1: chasing our tail trying to eliminate carbon in the world. 737 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:50,000 Speaker 1: They would love it if American oil companies were put 738 00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:59,680 Speaker 1: out of business. Try to imagine a scenario where one 739 00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:02,759 Speaker 1: of these planeiffs is successful, and then all the other 740 00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:05,160 Speaker 1: planeiffs take the ball and run with it and file 741 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:08,840 Speaker 1: comparable lawsuits in every county across this great land of ours, 742 00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:12,239 Speaker 1: trying to get their slice of the pie. And the 743 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:15,000 Speaker 1: oil companies went out of business. They had to declare bankruptcy. 744 00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:17,680 Speaker 1: Any activity going forward has already been declared to be 745 00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:22,120 Speaker 1: well destructive to the planet, and therefore our product is well. 746 00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:28,359 Speaker 1: They'd be like banning something carcinogenic, wouldn't it. We can't 747 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:30,799 Speaker 1: have that going out of the world. Sorry, no more 748 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,360 Speaker 1: gasoline for you, no more diesel fuel for you, no 749 00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:37,759 Speaker 1: more plastic for you. Think of all the things that 750 00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 1: are made with petroleum and think of a world without it, 751 00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:42,120 Speaker 1: or at least the United States with that. And I 752 00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:44,319 Speaker 1: suppose that would require us to start doing business with 753 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:49,440 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe oil companies out of China or Russia. Anyway, 754 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,120 Speaker 1: here's what he said. We'll go back to the op ed. 755 00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:56,640 Speaker 1: Mister Bookbinder that lawyer the activists even describe the end 756 00:42:56,760 --> 00:43:01,799 Speaker 1: game bankrupting the American oil and gas industry once a 757 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,239 Speaker 1: single planet secure. As a final judgment, he pointed out 758 00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:07,200 Speaker 1: a cascade of copycat lawsuits would follow, forcing every private 759 00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:11,440 Speaker 1: energy company into the United States into insolvency. Quote. Every 760 00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:15,799 Speaker 1: defendant in all cases immediately declares bankruptcy because they have to. 761 00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:23,000 Speaker 1: But foreign owned state oil and gas companies, say for example, 762 00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:28,440 Speaker 1: gas prom or the China National Petroleum Corporation, wouldn't be 763 00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:31,600 Speaker 1: subject to this. They can't be taken to state court 764 00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:37,160 Speaker 1: because of the legal doctrine of sovereign immunity. Oh, whether 765 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:39,719 Speaker 1: this lawfair gambit works may now be tested at the 766 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,520 Speaker 1: highest level. The defendants in sun Cor versus Boulder County 767 00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:45,520 Speaker 1: squarely raised the question at the heart of all these lawsuits. 768 00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 1: Can states regulate emissions that take place outside of their borders? 769 00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:57,120 Speaker 1: More than a century of Supreme Court precedent indicates the 770 00:43:57,160 --> 00:44:01,080 Speaker 1: answer must be no. Disputes involving pollution that cross state 771 00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 1: or international borders are the exclusive domain of federal law. 772 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:08,520 Speaker 1: If Colorado can regulate global emissions through its courts, what 773 00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:12,160 Speaker 1: stops Texas from suing California over its emission policies. The 774 00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:14,560 Speaker 1: result will be what the Supreme Court has called a 775 00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:19,959 Speaker 1: chaotic confrontation between states, with each imposing its preferred energy 776 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,160 Speaker 1: policy on the other, in this case, a policy that 777 00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:27,800 Speaker 1: selectively punishes American companies while foreign state owned precede producers 778 00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:30,239 Speaker 1: get a free pass. This is precisely the kind of 779 00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 1: interstate conflict the constitutional framers sought to prevent. Planets have 780 00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:38,200 Speaker 1: tried to avoid this issue by dressing up their complaints 781 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:41,960 Speaker 1: in the garb of state consumer protection or public nuisance laws, 782 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:45,560 Speaker 1: insisting they aren't trying to regulate emissions, just merely seeking 783 00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:50,120 Speaker 1: compensation for local harms. Colorado Supreme Court accepted that distinction, 784 00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:54,320 Speaker 1: concluding that the regulation regulating pollution is different from holding 785 00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 1: upstream producers liable for selling the products that cause it. 786 00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:02,560 Speaker 1: But then mister Book said the quiet part out loud. 787 00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:05,160 Speaker 1: But even if he had in the argument doesn't pass 788 00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:07,560 Speaker 1: the smell test, As the Second US Circuit Court of 789 00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:10,040 Speaker 1: Appeals own the only one, the only court of Appeals 790 00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:14,279 Speaker 1: to consider the Climate Toward case on the merits recognized quote, 791 00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:17,759 Speaker 1: artful pleading cannot transform such a complaint into anything other 792 00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:23,520 Speaker 1: than a suit over global greenhouse gas emissions. Letting State's 793 00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:27,160 Speaker 1: rule Supreme would create what James Madison called an inversion 794 00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:31,400 Speaker 1: of the fundamental principles of all government, creating a monster 795 00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:34,280 Speaker 1: in which the head was under the direction of its members. 796 00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:37,880 Speaker 1: Thanks to mister Bookbinder, the fiction of all these that 797 00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:40,359 Speaker 1: these are run of the mill state law cases has 798 00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:43,360 Speaker 1: been exposed. The Supreme Court should take it up before 799 00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:48,480 Speaker 1: this unconstitutional monster devours Americans energy independence. Isn't that sad 800 00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:50,319 Speaker 1: when you see the stars all aligned in a well 801 00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:56,080 Speaker 1: written explanation like that for mister Barr, Colorad a county 802 00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:59,200 Speaker 1: in Colorado is seeking to recover from an oil company 803 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:04,920 Speaker 1: whatever claim damages that one singular county suffered from as 804 00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:11,760 Speaker 1: a consequence of global emissions, as if the air floating 805 00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:13,759 Speaker 1: over that county you should be treated any differently than 806 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:16,239 Speaker 1: the air that we read here, or well, going back 807 00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:20,880 Speaker 1: to the fact that China in negates in twelve days 808 00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:24,760 Speaker 1: the efforts of the entire continent of Australia to reduce carbon. 809 00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:29,560 Speaker 1: This is foolish and I have to have pro Bawl 810 00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:31,000 Speaker 1: believes in this kind of crap too. He thinks the 811 00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:33,480 Speaker 1: city of Cincinnati can regulate carbon and have an impact 812 00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:35,200 Speaker 1: on the globe. Think about that when you're going into 813 00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:38,480 Speaker 1: the polling booth. Presti's interiors presstge one two to three 814 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:46,360 Speaker 1: dot com. It is six twenty three year at fifty 815 00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:49,000 Speaker 1: five kar CV talk station. Feel free to call if 816 00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:51,560 Speaker 1: I went three seven, four, nine fifty eight hundred two 817 00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:53,239 Speaker 1: to three talk or pound five fifty on AT and 818 00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:55,279 Speaker 1: T founds love to hear from you. Yeah, I talked 819 00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:57,160 Speaker 1: about Snap getting shut off, no number of first, A 820 00:46:57,160 --> 00:46:59,120 Speaker 1: lot of people screaming and whaling and ashing teeth on 821 00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:01,960 Speaker 1: that one means to be seen whether the litigation was 822 00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:05,360 Speaker 1: filed by twenty five states can free up the remaining 823 00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:08,440 Speaker 1: five billion dollars and whatever pile of money's back behind 824 00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:10,080 Speaker 1: the scenes there, but it won't be enough to cover 825 00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:14,360 Speaker 1: the entire nut for the month of November. So let 826 00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:17,680 Speaker 1: him try, I suppose. But you could also just get 827 00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:19,799 Speaker 1: the Democrats open the government up. That'd be really easy. 828 00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:21,879 Speaker 1: Only need five more or six more and he would 829 00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:23,399 Speaker 1: be open and you wouldn't have to worry about Snap 830 00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:24,759 Speaker 1: being cut off. So, to the extent you want to 831 00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:30,560 Speaker 1: blame Trump, you can't. This is congressional action. This will 832 00:47:30,600 --> 00:47:33,880 Speaker 1: be the Senate landing squarely in the lap of the 833 00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:36,800 Speaker 1: Senate over which really Donald Trump doesn't have any control. 834 00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 1: I mean, he can tell them what he wants them 835 00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:40,480 Speaker 1: to do, but he can't force them to do anything. 836 00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:48,160 Speaker 1: Why because he's not a king duh, but apparently shock 837 00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:52,359 Speaker 1: about the new cost for affordable care plans well being 838 00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:55,560 Speaker 1: revealed the pain that the Democrats want you to feel. 839 00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:58,200 Speaker 1: Of course, you have the SNAP memo going out letting 840 00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 1: SNAP recipients know the November it's going to stop. Now, 841 00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:05,279 Speaker 1: you have the I Guess CMS or at least the 842 00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:09,680 Speaker 1: Obamacare website letting people know what life's going to be 843 00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:12,239 Speaker 1: like this year with the premium increase after the subsidies 844 00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:19,520 Speaker 1: are gone, and some pretty substantial increases. A journal we 845 00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:22,640 Speaker 1: refer to a couple named Clinton Cindy Cottrell, one of 846 00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:25,239 Speaker 1: the worst ones in the article that's talking about individuals 847 00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:28,319 Speaker 1: dealing with the premium increase. They have been paying three 848 00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:30,680 Speaker 1: hundred and five dollars a month for their plan, including 849 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:35,279 Speaker 1: help from the subsidies. After the subsidies disappear, they will 850 00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:38,280 Speaker 1: be on the hook for twenty roughly twenty five hundred 851 00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:42,040 Speaker 1: dollars per month if they stick with the same plan. 852 00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:49,640 Speaker 1: According to their agent, he has musculo dyscophee a dystrophee. 853 00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:53,319 Speaker 1: She has regular injections because of her crippling nerve pain. 854 00:48:55,640 --> 00:48:58,560 Speaker 1: Agents say their fixed income combination of pension and Social 855 00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:01,239 Speaker 1: Security will be too high to qualify for federal help, 856 00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:05,120 Speaker 1: which the cap is I believe, sixty one five hundred dollars. 857 00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:08,719 Speaker 1: They say, we can't afford that premium, there's no way. Well, 858 00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:10,359 Speaker 1: I suppose if you go to cover since you, they'll 859 00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:11,800 Speaker 1: come up with a better path. It won't cost you 860 00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:14,279 Speaker 1: twenty five hundred bucks a month. But that's kind of 861 00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:16,840 Speaker 1: increased some people are facing. And that's a reflection of 862 00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:21,480 Speaker 1: how well broken the Obamacare plan is. The subsidies mask 863 00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:27,320 Speaker 1: the true cost. It's the it's the insurer of last resort. 864 00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:30,480 Speaker 1: And I'm guessing because Obamacare comes with a ten thousand 865 00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:33,920 Speaker 1: dollars roughly out of pocket responsibility in addition to the 866 00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:36,080 Speaker 1: twenty five hundred bucks that couple's going to be paying, 867 00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:39,239 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to pull out ten grand before the 868 00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:42,359 Speaker 1: insurance even kicks in. Does that sound like a good 869 00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:46,080 Speaker 1: solution for the nation's healthcare crisis that were facing. No, 870 00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:49,120 Speaker 1: Obamacare never was going to help us out. And I 871 00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:52,799 Speaker 1: bet you don't have your doctor six six fifty five 872 00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:55,680 Speaker 1: care se detalk station. One of the pillars is selling 873 00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:57,800 Speaker 1: that to is you can keep your doctor your insurance 874 00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:05,880 Speaker 1: pre six thirty one. I think about KR scene the 875 00:50:06,160 --> 00:50:14,200 Speaker 1: talk station. Happy Wednesday.

Tenant 911 00:52:17,239 --> 00:52:19,680 Speaker 1: Joe Mulusko said, we made a decision to canvas the 912 00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:22,920 Speaker 1: area at night and with unmarked patrol and Derne patrol, 913 00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:25,040 Speaker 1: and we were lucky.

Officers of the teens targeting parking 918 00:52:35,840 --> 00:52:40,239 Speaker 1: lots at apartment complexes on the township's east side. Twelve 919 00:52:40,280 --> 00:52:42,480 Speaker 1: hours later, to Hi police pulled over another stolen car 920 00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:45,160 Speaker 1: from Coal Ringe Township arrested a guy named Jacob Klein, 921 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:47,960 Speaker 1: who was only eighteen, charged with receiving stolen property and 922 00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:51,640 Speaker 1: taken to jail. Police said that even though these cases 923 00:52:51,680 --> 00:52:53,880 Speaker 1: resulted in vehicles being returned to their owners, the problems 924 00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:57,359 Speaker 1: didn't end there. According to Macaluso, they're happy to get 925 00:52:57,360 --> 00:52:59,239 Speaker 1: their cars back, for the problem we run across is 926 00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:01,480 Speaker 1: they're ripping out the interior to get to the end 927 00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:03,720 Speaker 1: of the ignition, so it's costing them in their insurance 928 00:53:03,719 --> 00:53:07,000 Speaker 1: company's money to fix. After the spike and tests, police 929 00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:10,719 Speaker 1: reminded residents to stay vigilant, remove all valuable items from 930 00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:14,319 Speaker 1: your car. Lieutenant Macluso said, if you're going to go 931 00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:17,759 Speaker 1: to a holiday party with gifts, resist the temptation of 932 00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:20,680 Speaker 1: loading them in your car the night before, he said, 933 00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:23,040 Speaker 1: especially as we start getting really close to the Christmas 934 00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:26,160 Speaker 1: time where they think they're going to be going to 935 00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:27,920 Speaker 1: a party within the next day or so, so they 936 00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:30,840 Speaker 1: load the car up at night. Fortunately, that's when thieves 937 00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:33,360 Speaker 1: are out because they know items of value are probably 938 00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:36,279 Speaker 1: going to be in the car. He also said more 939 00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:38,920 Speaker 1: juveniles on the police department's radar for car thefts, and 940 00:53:39,040 --> 00:53:41,360 Speaker 1: more charges are expected to be filed against the fourteen 941 00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:45,440 Speaker 1: and fifteen year old they already have in custody. Is crazy, 942 00:53:45,480 --> 00:53:50,080 Speaker 1: how young these criminals are. You think if there was 943 00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:54,280 Speaker 1: really some serious accountability, if there was some serious justice 944 00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:56,399 Speaker 1: meet it out on these young people, that word would 945 00:53:56,440 --> 00:54:00,120 Speaker 1: get around that they're not going to get a free pass. 946 00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:04,040 Speaker 1: Just a theory, seems to be. It used to be 947 00:54:04,160 --> 00:54:07,600 Speaker 1: that way. USA Installation. It's six forty here, I fifty 948 00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:13,759 Speaker 1: have ker Seed Talk Station.

You see some of 965 00:55:01,320 --> 00:55:06,320 Speaker 1: the things that that guy has said previously, anti police 966 00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:09,239 Speaker 1: statements among them. Since we have russ Neville coming up, 967 00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:11,479 Speaker 1: retired Captain Russ Neville is going to be talking about 968 00:55:11,480 --> 00:55:13,600 Speaker 1: his sister police chief DGI. He'll be in studio at 969 00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:17,279 Speaker 1: eighty five to talk about that. But don't think he's 970 00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:19,360 Speaker 1: a defund the police kind of mentality guy. We know 971 00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:22,200 Speaker 1: that Mayor Aftab Purvoal pretty much is sort of kind 972 00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:25,319 Speaker 1: of that guy. Maybe get to the bottom of that 973 00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:27,760 Speaker 1: with this investigation of the police chief. I don't know anyway, 974 00:55:27,920 --> 00:55:31,680 Speaker 1: Zoran Mondami making anti police statements, all resurfacing, maybe a 975 00:55:31,719 --> 00:55:33,399 Speaker 1: little late in the game for the New York City 976 00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:37,600 Speaker 1: residents to wake the hell up to this guy. He 977 00:55:37,719 --> 00:55:41,120 Speaker 1: was speaking in twenty twenty three, not that far ago. 978 00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:44,600 Speaker 1: That long ago. He was the keynote speaker at the 979 00:55:44,640 --> 00:55:51,319 Speaker 1: Democratic Socialist of America's National convention. That time, he said 980 00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:55,440 Speaker 1: it was important to connect hyper local and international issues, 981 00:55:55,520 --> 00:55:57,360 Speaker 1: whatever the hell of those two things mean. Speaking is 982 00:55:57,400 --> 00:56:03,200 Speaker 1: part of a separate panel called Socialist Internationalism the Solution 983 00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:11,040 Speaker 1: to the Crisis of Capitalism. Huh quote. We are in 984 00:56:11,040 --> 00:56:14,359 Speaker 1: a country where those connections abound, especially in New York City, 985 00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:16,839 Speaker 1: where there are so many opportunities to make clear the 986 00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:21,080 Speaker 1: ways in which the struggle over there is tied to 987 00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:25,960 Speaker 1: capitalist interests over here. Wait a minute, or what location 988 00:56:26,120 --> 00:56:28,879 Speaker 1: is he referring to when he says over there? Quite 989 00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:32,240 Speaker 1: revealing in the next sentence. For anyone to care about 990 00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:35,560 Speaker 1: these issues, we have to make them connect, meaning the 991 00:56:35,640 --> 00:56:38,440 Speaker 1: local issues in the city of New York and international 992 00:56:38,480 --> 00:56:44,359 Speaker 1: issues over there. We have to make clear that when 993 00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:47,480 Speaker 1: the boot of the New York Police Department is on 994 00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:54,640 Speaker 1: your neck, it's been laced by the IDF. We have 995 00:56:54,719 --> 00:57:01,440 Speaker 1: to make it materially connected to their lives. So somehow 996 00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:05,120 Speaker 1: and in some way, the oppressive authoritative boot of the 997 00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:08,319 Speaker 1: New York the Police Department is being directed by the 998 00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:14,600 Speaker 1: Israeli Defense Force. This guy's batcrap insane. This is a 999 00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:20,160 Speaker 1: noted anti Semite. And you know, there were so many 1000 00:57:20,320 --> 00:57:22,640 Speaker 1: Jewish people in the city of New York. I can't 1001 00:57:22,680 --> 00:57:24,880 Speaker 1: imagine that any of them would vote for this guy. 1002 00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:29,480 Speaker 1: And yet, for whatever reason, the Jewish community has rallied 1003 00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:34,640 Speaker 1: around Democrats for decades. I've never understood that ever. I 1004 00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:37,520 Speaker 1: just I've got lots and lots of Jewish friends, and 1005 00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:39,680 Speaker 1: I've had conversations with him about it, and this kind 1006 00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:41,920 Speaker 1: of laugh and roll their eyes or I've never gotten 1007 00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:46,439 Speaker 1: a decent, clear explanation for that. But maybe it's because 1008 00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:49,560 Speaker 1: they perceive the Republicans as a bunch of Christians and 1009 00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:51,400 Speaker 1: for some reason what we can't all play along it 1010 00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:57,320 Speaker 1: is the Judeo Christian ethic we're referring to here, but 1011 00:57:58,320 --> 00:58:01,200 Speaker 1: quite revealing that also feeling the fact that he's taken 1012 00:58:01,240 --> 00:58:09,600 Speaker 1: in campaign contributions from foreign nationals, which is illegal. He's 1013 00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:13,240 Speaker 1: been referred by the filed by the Coolidge Reagan Foundation 1014 00:58:13,440 --> 00:58:23,280 Speaker 1: referred to Zorhanman Dami criminally filed the referrals to the 1015 00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:26,800 Speaker 1: Department of Justice's Criminal Justice Division Manhattan District Attorney Alvin 1016 00:58:26,800 --> 00:58:30,320 Speaker 1: Bragg's office. Just yesterday, campaign brought in about thirteen thousand 1017 00:58:30,360 --> 00:58:33,200 Speaker 1: dollars from about one hundred and seventy donors addresses outside 1018 00:58:33,240 --> 00:58:36,160 Speaker 1: of the United States, donors including his mother in law 1019 00:58:36,200 --> 00:58:40,640 Speaker 1: in Dubai. Federal law does prohibit campaigns from accepting money 1020 00:58:40,640 --> 00:58:44,520 Speaker 1: from foreign nationals. To the spokesman for the organization, Mam 1021 00:58:44,560 --> 00:58:48,200 Speaker 1: Donnie's campaign reportedly accepted donations from individuals abroad, some even 1022 00:58:48,240 --> 00:58:53,000 Speaker 1: tied to regions and individuals openly sympathetic to hostile actors, 1023 00:58:53,360 --> 00:58:57,040 Speaker 1: whether through negligence or intent, Its conduct undermines the integrity 1024 00:58:57,080 --> 00:59:00,400 Speaker 1: of the democratic process. In fact, Mandammie's campaig And already 1025 00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:02,120 Speaker 1: had to return some of the funds. According to the 1026 00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:05,040 Speaker 1: New York Post, eighty eight donations with the total of 1027 00:59:05,360 --> 00:59:09,040 Speaker 1: just over seven thousand dollars have not been returned, even 1028 00:59:09,080 --> 00:59:14,880 Speaker 1: though they're identified as coming from foreign sources. I just 1029 00:59:18,080 --> 00:59:21,880 Speaker 1: I've said it before, I saying I'm sixty, have you 1030 00:59:21,880 --> 00:59:26,240 Speaker 1: said Brian Thomas we're gonna make you mayor of New 1031 00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:29,480 Speaker 1: York City. I do not believe I have the requisite 1032 00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:32,880 Speaker 1: skill sets to be mayor of New York City. Does 1033 00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:35,920 Speaker 1: anyone believe Zorhanmandami at age thirty three has the requisite 1034 00:59:35,920 --> 00:59:38,240 Speaker 1: skill set since he really has never held a job, 1035 00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:40,439 Speaker 1: that he could run an entire city of New York? 1036 00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:44,880 Speaker 1: Does anybody else wonder as I do, who his puppet 1037 00:59:44,920 --> 00:59:52,880 Speaker 1: master is, because that person, those groups of people, those entities, 1038 00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:55,439 Speaker 1: whoever is controlling his decision making. And I do believe 1039 00:59:55,480 --> 00:59:58,440 Speaker 1: it's gonna be thoroughly controlled by outside influences. We have 1040 00:59:58,480 --> 01:00:01,320 Speaker 1: a tremendous amount authority over this in New York, millions 1041 01:00:01,360 --> 01:00:04,240 Speaker 1: and millions of people with billions of dollars of annual 1042 01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:13,440 Speaker 1: revenue generated. Who is Jorhan Mondami's puppet master? Six forty 1043 01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:17,720 Speaker 1: six fifty five KR city talk station. Frightening stuff going 1044 01:00:17,760 --> 01:00:23,520 Speaker 1: on in the world right now? Plumb type station, This 1045 01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:26,000 Speaker 1: shuy is six fifty one here fifty five KRSD talk 1046 01:00:26,040 --> 01:00:28,440 Speaker 1: station five one, three, seven, four, nine fifty five eight 1047 01:00:28,480 --> 01:00:30,800 Speaker 1: hundred eight two three pound five fifty on AT and 1048 01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:33,560 Speaker 1: T phone. Mareene thinks she has the answer. She says 1049 01:00:33,640 --> 01:00:37,240 Speaker 1: it's George Soros, because Jorhan Mandamis has deep family ties 1050 01:00:37,240 --> 01:00:41,480 Speaker 1: to George Soros. Maybe it is. I guess I have 1051 01:00:41,680 --> 01:00:44,920 Speaker 1: just concluded, just again based on my own life experience 1052 01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:46,920 Speaker 1: and how much life experience I had at age thirty three, 1053 01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:50,000 Speaker 1: even though I had gainful employment as a litigation attorney, 1054 01:00:50,200 --> 01:00:53,240 Speaker 1: doubt I had the requisite skill skill sets. So someone's 1055 01:00:53,240 --> 01:00:55,720 Speaker 1: going to be making his decisions for him. Mariene has 1056 01:00:55,760 --> 01:00:57,680 Speaker 1: guest first, So go to the phones, Mike, thanks for 1057 01:00:57,720 --> 01:00:59,240 Speaker 1: calling this morning, Happy Wednesday. 1058 01:01:00,360 --> 01:01:03,960 Speaker 12: Hey Brian, real quick about my Donnie and about the 1059 01:01:04,160 --> 01:01:07,240 Speaker 12: taking money from foreign nationalism. I mean, what exactly is 1060 01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:10,040 Speaker 12: the penalty for that? You to return the money and 1061 01:01:10,080 --> 01:01:10,440 Speaker 12: that's it? 1062 01:01:10,880 --> 01:01:14,040 Speaker 1: Probably you know, Honestly I don't. I don't definitively know 1063 01:01:14,440 --> 01:01:17,640 Speaker 1: if you hid the contributions, if you made a conscious 1064 01:01:17,680 --> 01:01:21,000 Speaker 1: effort to accept foreign contributions, if you're engaged in some 1065 01:01:21,040 --> 01:01:23,880 Speaker 1: sort of coordinated criminal to be like a criminal endeavor 1066 01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:27,160 Speaker 1: to to hide where the money came from. Maybe there 1067 01:01:27,200 --> 01:01:29,360 Speaker 1: is some criminal charge. It could be levied or weight 1068 01:01:29,520 --> 01:01:32,000 Speaker 1: or some some finer penalty, but I think as of 1069 01:01:32,080 --> 01:01:34,800 Speaker 1: right now, oh oh wait a minute, the money came 1070 01:01:34,840 --> 01:01:37,919 Speaker 1: from some foreign donor whoops here, let me give it back. 1071 01:01:37,920 --> 01:01:40,440 Speaker 1: And I think that unrings the bell of any penalty. 1072 01:01:40,960 --> 01:01:42,760 Speaker 12: Right, it should be more string and I kick you 1073 01:01:42,760 --> 01:01:46,280 Speaker 12: off the ticket or something. I mean, I should be 1074 01:01:46,280 --> 01:01:46,960 Speaker 12: something mind it. 1075 01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:49,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, And you know, the world such a small place 1076 01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:51,720 Speaker 1: now with all these pay apps and PayPal and the 1077 01:01:51,960 --> 01:01:56,520 Speaker 1: like and instant transfers of money and ease of coordination. 1078 01:01:56,640 --> 01:01:58,520 Speaker 1: That's another thing the Internet's allowed us to do. You 1079 01:01:58,520 --> 01:02:00,560 Speaker 1: can see it in the form of protests becoming more 1080 01:02:00,600 --> 01:02:03,600 Speaker 1: and more successful, because if the word can literally get 1081 01:02:03,600 --> 01:02:06,320 Speaker 1: out to everyone, some slice of humanity is going to 1082 01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:08,080 Speaker 1: get the word and they're going to show up. Not 1083 01:02:08,160 --> 01:02:09,760 Speaker 1: that they would have in the absence of the Internet. 1084 01:02:09,760 --> 01:02:11,720 Speaker 1: They probably never would even have heard about whatever rally 1085 01:02:11,720 --> 01:02:13,680 Speaker 1: you're going to do. But behind the scenes, you could 1086 01:02:13,720 --> 01:02:16,760 Speaker 1: get a whole bunch of people to put collectively together 1087 01:02:16,800 --> 01:02:19,760 Speaker 1: on a global basis five bucks here, ten bucks there, 1088 01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:21,680 Speaker 1: and then sort of pile it up in a package 1089 01:02:21,680 --> 01:02:24,360 Speaker 1: and have some political action committee receive the money and 1090 01:02:24,520 --> 01:02:27,800 Speaker 1: never know where that money came from. The ease with 1091 01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:31,280 Speaker 1: which you can hide contributions is just a frightening thing 1092 01:02:31,320 --> 01:02:35,600 Speaker 1: going on right now. So I don't know there's a 1093 01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:37,880 Speaker 1: solution to it, but at least in the case of Mondami, 1094 01:02:37,920 --> 01:02:42,919 Speaker 1: they've identified foreign contributions. H coming up in a job 1095 01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:44,680 Speaker 1: a big picture with Jack ed than to make America 1096 01:02:44,760 --> 01:02:48,840 Speaker 1: sing again. And one more thing, because I've been on 1097 01:02:48,920 --> 01:02:51,160 Speaker 1: a terarabot, We're going to get nuclear power. It seems 1098 01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:54,240 Speaker 1: pretty obvious. US government and Westinghouse just agreed on an 1099 01:02:54,320 --> 01:02:57,520 Speaker 1: eighty billion dollar deal to construct a whole bunch of 1100 01:02:57,600 --> 01:03:00,640 Speaker 1: nuclear power plants in this country, fulfilling the Donald Trump's 1101 01:03:00,640 --> 01:03:06,240 Speaker 1: goal of doing just that. It's going to create they say, 1102 01:03:06,400 --> 01:03:09,640 Speaker 1: forty five thousand manufacturing and engineering jobs in forty three states, 1103 01:03:09,640 --> 01:03:12,400 Speaker 1: and national deployment will create more than one hundred thousand 1104 01:03:12,520 --> 01:03:16,800 Speaker 1: construction jobs. All good for the country. And of course, abundant, unlimited, 1105 01:03:16,800 --> 01:03:19,240 Speaker 1: twenty four hour days, seven day week, carbon free nuclear 1106 01:03:19,280 --> 01:03:21,760 Speaker 1: power is going to save us. Bill Gates is on board. Now. 1107 01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:25,160 Speaker 1: I thought this was rather hilarious. After spending billions of 1108 01:03:25,200 --> 01:03:29,840 Speaker 1: dollars on climate change programs, carbon capture programs, blah blah blah, 1109 01:03:29,920 --> 01:03:33,280 Speaker 1: the Gates Foundation, which has spent huge sums of cash 1110 01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:36,840 Speaker 1: the companies working on reducing global greenhouse gas emissions, Bill 1111 01:03:36,880 --> 01:03:39,640 Speaker 1: Gates has changed his mind, saying now climate change will 1112 01:03:39,640 --> 01:03:46,400 Speaker 1: not lead to humanity's demise. Hmm. Pen lengthy blog post 1113 01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:49,800 Speaker 1: last week urging a shift away from doom the doomsday 1114 01:03:49,920 --> 01:03:54,440 Speaker 1: outlook quote. Although climate change will have serious consequences, particularly 1115 01:03:54,480 --> 01:03:57,360 Speaker 1: for people in the poorest countries, it will not lead 1116 01:03:57,440 --> 01:03:59,840 Speaker 1: humanity's demise. People will be able to live and thrive 1117 01:03:59,880 --> 01:04:02,520 Speaker 1: in most places on the Earth for the foreseeable future. 1118 01:04:03,520 --> 01:04:09,120 Speaker 1: Where's al gore? He even noted some of the ways 1119 01:04:09,160 --> 01:04:11,680 Speaker 1: of the obsessive focus on lower and greenhouse gas emissions 1120 01:04:11,680 --> 01:04:14,800 Speaker 1: has negatively impacted the very groups crime and alarmists, if warned, 1121 01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:18,200 Speaker 1: would suffer them most to rising global temperatures. Quote. A 1122 01:04:18,200 --> 01:04:22,120 Speaker 1: few years ago, the government of one low income country 1123 01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:25,560 Speaker 1: set out to cut emissions by banning synthetic fertilizers. He 1124 01:04:25,600 --> 01:04:29,439 Speaker 1: pointed out, farmers yield plummeted. Huh, there was much less 1125 01:04:29,440 --> 01:04:33,480 Speaker 1: food available and prices skyrocketed. The country was hit by 1126 01:04:33,480 --> 01:04:39,919 Speaker 1: a crisis because the government valued reducing emissions above other 1127 01:04:40,160 --> 01:04:55,880 Speaker 1: important things close quote yeah, like eating eating. He also 1128 01:04:55,960 --> 01:05:04,480 Speaker 1: noted that heat less of a problem than cold, far 1129 01:05:04,480 --> 01:05:09,560 Speaker 1: greater threat to humanity, writing surprisingly, excessive cold is far deadlier, 1130 01:05:10,120 --> 01:05:14,320 Speaker 1: killing nearly ten times more people every year than he does. Plus, 1131 01:05:15,080 --> 01:05:17,720 Speaker 1: it's plant food that carbon dioxide. So Bill Gates is 1132 01:05:17,760 --> 01:05:20,480 Speaker 1: on board. He's got a vested interest in artificial intelligence, 1133 01:05:20,520 --> 01:05:22,840 Speaker 1: among other things. He's got to vested interest in an 1134 01:05:22,880 --> 01:05:25,160 Speaker 1: abundance of power. He knows that a windmill is not 1135 01:05:25,200 --> 01:05:30,960 Speaker 1: going to power his projects going forward. At least he 1136 01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:36,120 Speaker 1: appreciates the broader societal implications of chasing our tails. People die. 1137 01:05:37,160 --> 01:05:39,240 Speaker 1: What it's a pleasure having you on the program. Apparently 1138 01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:42,000 Speaker 1: we're gonna make America sing again, Jack. 1139 01:05:41,920 --> 01:05:45,240 Speaker 10: We're gonna try, and we're gonna try. Thanks, brother, I 1140 01:05:45,320 --> 01:05:50,440 Speaker 10: guess you jolted us away, showing how Democrats keeping the 1141 01:05:50,480 --> 01:05:55,480 Speaker 10: federal government shut are trying to incite supermarket sweep theft 1142 01:05:55,600 --> 01:05:59,880 Speaker 10: by people on food stams. Yeah, unless Republicans extend SUBSI 1143 01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:06,640 Speaker 10: COVID subsidies for Obamacare for another ten years and also 1144 01:06:06,720 --> 01:06:11,280 Speaker 10: pay healthcare costs for tens of millions of illegal aliens, 1145 01:06:11,600 --> 01:06:15,400 Speaker 10: all to the tune of one point five trillion dollars 1146 01:06:15,560 --> 01:06:18,560 Speaker 10: in deficit spending, we don't have. So, I guess the 1147 01:06:18,640 --> 01:06:21,320 Speaker 10: last thing we want to do this morning is sing. 1148 01:06:22,080 --> 01:06:25,880 Speaker 10: But folks, I think we have to as long as 1149 01:06:25,920 --> 01:06:29,760 Speaker 10: we're singing the right kind of songs. A little history. 1150 01:06:30,560 --> 01:06:34,440 Speaker 10: Twenty five hundred years ago, when China was being torn 1151 01:06:34,520 --> 01:06:39,120 Speaker 10: apart by internal conflicts, Confucius said you could judge the 1152 01:06:39,160 --> 01:06:43,880 Speaker 10: morality of a nation by its music. Around the same 1153 01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:47,960 Speaker 10: time as ancient Greece was declining from its Golden Age, 1154 01:06:48,200 --> 01:06:52,000 Speaker 10: Plato warned about how music could warp the minds of kids. 1155 01:06:52,440 --> 01:06:57,080 Speaker 10: He instead called for music that promoted virtue. What used 1156 01:06:57,120 --> 01:07:01,440 Speaker 10: to be called the Great American Songbook includes thousands of 1157 01:07:01,520 --> 01:07:07,160 Speaker 10: songs that show how our country grew, assimilated, and celebrated 1158 01:07:07,200 --> 01:07:10,160 Speaker 10: what it means to be an American. So I'm urging 1159 01:07:10,240 --> 01:07:15,240 Speaker 10: kids and adults to resist peer pressure, to stand up 1160 01:07:15,240 --> 01:07:18,960 Speaker 10: to popular culture and think about what we're hearing and 1161 01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:22,840 Speaker 10: what we've lost our continence. First songs were, of course, 1162 01:07:23,240 --> 01:07:27,640 Speaker 10: Native American chants and dances. Shamans said they received them 1163 01:07:27,680 --> 01:07:31,360 Speaker 10: in dreams from spirit beings. They became the heartbeat of 1164 01:07:31,400 --> 01:07:34,960 Speaker 10: the prairies and plains. It's hard to imagine a Western movie, 1165 01:07:35,280 --> 01:07:39,360 Speaker 10: especially one of the old classics, without hearing those hypnotic rhythms. 1166 01:07:40,040 --> 01:07:42,960 Speaker 10: Even Cold Porter in the twentieth century began one of 1167 01:07:43,040 --> 01:07:47,000 Speaker 10: his most haunting songs, Night and Day, with Fred Astaires 1168 01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:50,439 Speaker 10: singing about the beat beat beat of the tom tom. 1169 01:07:50,800 --> 01:07:55,439 Speaker 10: The first Europeans brought their own songs. Now stern Pilgrims 1170 01:07:55,440 --> 01:08:00,040 Speaker 10: did not allow musical instruments. They rejected established church rituals 1171 01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:03,920 Speaker 10: that employed organs and even whole orchestras. But the Pilgrims, 1172 01:08:04,200 --> 01:08:08,760 Speaker 10: even the Pilgrims, did sing, including the women. As long 1173 01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:10,560 Speaker 10: as the women sang with the men, there was no 1174 01:08:10,680 --> 01:08:15,800 Speaker 10: danger that they would become Jezebels. The pilgrim's first hymn, though, 1175 01:08:16,280 --> 01:08:20,040 Speaker 10: came from England, not from England directly. Actually, it came 1176 01:08:20,040 --> 01:08:24,080 Speaker 10: from Holland, the big hearted nation that first gave Pilgrims 1177 01:08:24,120 --> 01:08:28,360 Speaker 10: shelter from the religious persecution they had faced in England. 1178 01:08:28,560 --> 01:08:29,360 Speaker 1: So Brian. 1179 01:08:29,479 --> 01:08:33,320 Speaker 10: The earliest hymns in America were not only about religion, 1180 01:08:33,760 --> 01:08:38,599 Speaker 10: they were about religious freedom and tolerance. Each new wave 1181 01:08:38,680 --> 01:08:42,160 Speaker 10: of European immigrants brought songs from the old countries, the 1182 01:08:42,200 --> 01:08:46,000 Speaker 10: Scottish and Irish, contributing tunes that all Americans came to 1183 01:08:46,160 --> 01:08:51,439 Speaker 10: cherish thanks to popular performers, for instance, Harry Lauder. Most 1184 01:08:51,439 --> 01:08:53,640 Speaker 10: people have never heard of them today, but wearing a 1185 01:08:53,800 --> 01:08:57,320 Speaker 10: kilt and tam o shanter, Harry became one of America's 1186 01:08:57,360 --> 01:09:02,320 Speaker 10: first superstars or Blain songs like Roman in the Gloman. 1187 01:09:03,200 --> 01:09:07,200 Speaker 10: But singing wasn't reserved for Harry and other stars. Almost 1188 01:09:07,320 --> 01:09:11,519 Speaker 10: every middle class American home had a parlor, and every 1189 01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:16,760 Speaker 10: parlor had a piano. Everyone sang at first foreign and 1190 01:09:16,800 --> 01:09:21,479 Speaker 10: then American songs. The band called the Father of American 1191 01:09:21,560 --> 01:09:25,640 Speaker 10: Music was born in eighteen twenty six just outside Pittsburgh. 1192 01:09:25,920 --> 01:09:31,080 Speaker 10: He composed here in Cincinnati with the canned do American spirit. 1193 01:09:31,160 --> 01:09:36,920 Speaker 10: Stephen Foster taught himself piano, guitar, flute, and clarinet. Then 1194 01:09:37,160 --> 01:09:42,680 Speaker 10: he wrote giddy robs like Camptown Races, Douda Duda, but 1195 01:09:42,800 --> 01:09:49,240 Speaker 10: also wistful songs, songs of separation, because separation defined America. 1196 01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:52,479 Speaker 10: Back in Europe, most people never left home. The new 1197 01:09:52,520 --> 01:09:57,400 Speaker 10: Americans were pioneers and wanderers. We all know the refrain 1198 01:09:57,920 --> 01:10:01,360 Speaker 10: O Susanna, don't you cry from me? I come from 1199 01:10:01,400 --> 01:10:04,800 Speaker 10: Alabama with a banjo on my knee. You can still 1200 01:10:04,840 --> 01:10:08,840 Speaker 10: hear James Taylor's recording these things it beautifully, but most 1201 01:10:08,880 --> 01:10:13,400 Speaker 10: people don't know this verse from that song. I soon 1202 01:10:13,479 --> 01:10:16,439 Speaker 10: will be in New Orleans, and then I'll look around, 1203 01:10:16,800 --> 01:10:20,160 Speaker 10: and when I find Susanna I'll fall upon the ground. 1204 01:10:20,880 --> 01:10:24,840 Speaker 10: But if I do not find her, this darkie will 1205 01:10:24,880 --> 01:10:29,280 Speaker 10: surely die. And when I'm dead and buried, Susanna, don't 1206 01:10:29,320 --> 01:10:35,320 Speaker 10: you cry. Darkies were almost all slaves in eighteen sixty four, 1207 01:10:35,439 --> 01:10:38,960 Speaker 10: when Stephen Foster died so young. There's not a trace 1208 01:10:39,000 --> 01:10:42,200 Speaker 10: of African or Caribbean music in Oh Susannah. But you 1209 01:10:42,280 --> 01:10:47,040 Speaker 10: could feel and you could hear field hollers on plantations 1210 01:10:47,080 --> 01:10:51,360 Speaker 10: and levees and spirituals in black churches, all with roots 1211 01:10:51,439 --> 01:10:56,200 Speaker 10: in West Africa. One hundred years later, they intoxicated a 1212 01:10:56,240 --> 01:11:00,800 Speaker 10: white kid from Memphis. Elvis's manager, Colonel Tom Parker, is 1213 01:11:00,800 --> 01:11:03,200 Speaker 10: supposed to have said he was looking for a white 1214 01:11:03,240 --> 01:11:06,599 Speaker 10: guy who could sing black because in the nineteen fifties 1215 01:11:06,600 --> 01:11:10,280 Speaker 10: you still needed white pop singers to cover black songs. 1216 01:11:10,320 --> 01:11:13,800 Speaker 10: Boo nexs, Yeah, Pat, he's still with us, he still 1217 01:11:13,880 --> 01:11:17,880 Speaker 10: walking stuff on TV. Thanks to the Civil Rights Movement, 1218 01:11:18,600 --> 01:11:22,519 Speaker 10: all of that finally changed. Motown replaced New York's Tinpan 1219 01:11:22,600 --> 01:11:27,160 Speaker 10: Alley the legendary capital of songwriting. But long before Motown, 1220 01:11:27,320 --> 01:11:30,320 Speaker 10: black musicians had made their mark, at least with a 1221 01:11:30,360 --> 01:11:34,519 Speaker 10: smaller audience. Louis Armstrong's best records date from the nineteen 1222 01:11:34,600 --> 01:11:38,679 Speaker 10: twenties with his New Orleans Hot five and Hot seven. 1223 01:11:39,240 --> 01:11:42,880 Speaker 10: Louis wailed on cornet, his wife Lil played piano, but 1224 01:11:43,280 --> 01:11:46,640 Speaker 10: really it was all about rhythm. The original word for 1225 01:11:46,720 --> 01:11:51,759 Speaker 10: jazz was jazz, meaning pep energy. Jazz led to swinging 1226 01:11:51,880 --> 01:11:56,440 Speaker 10: big bands, bebop rock and the offshoots we have today, 1227 01:11:56,479 --> 01:12:00,760 Speaker 10: including rhythms from a later immigrant group, East Indian. Even 1228 01:12:00,800 --> 01:12:03,799 Speaker 10: if you've never seen a Bollywood movie, you're probably dancing 1229 01:12:03,840 --> 01:12:07,080 Speaker 10: in a club to Hindi pop. Jazz gave us a 1230 01:12:07,120 --> 01:12:11,360 Speaker 10: galaxy of geniuses the very few kids know today, Jelly 1231 01:12:11,439 --> 01:12:17,000 Speaker 10: Roll Morton, Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, and my favorite, Duke Ellington. 1232 01:12:17,560 --> 01:12:20,280 Speaker 10: The Duke broke songs that are as great as any 1233 01:12:20,320 --> 01:12:26,760 Speaker 10: America ever produced, lush, magnificent melodies, try sophisticated lady. He 1234 01:12:26,800 --> 01:12:30,240 Speaker 10: recorded it many times, including once with our local girl 1235 01:12:30,680 --> 01:12:35,360 Speaker 10: Rosemary Clooney, and although racism kept Duke's band playing in 1236 01:12:35,400 --> 01:12:39,479 Speaker 10: small town clubs many other time, he always considered himself 1237 01:12:39,479 --> 01:12:43,439 Speaker 10: part of the Tinpan Alley mainstream, So a word about that. 1238 01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:46,760 Speaker 10: It was less a stream than a mighty river in 1239 01:12:46,800 --> 01:12:50,240 Speaker 10: its a day. From before the First World War until 1240 01:12:50,240 --> 01:12:53,920 Speaker 10: the nineteen sixties when it was swamped by rock and 1241 01:12:53,920 --> 01:12:58,879 Speaker 10: then grunge, rap, techno, and whatever is coming next. Tinpen 1242 01:12:59,040 --> 01:13:03,799 Speaker 10: Alley's Great American Songbook included every threat of the American fabric, 1243 01:13:04,320 --> 01:13:08,200 Speaker 10: European waltzes made American by the great Jerome Kern and 1244 01:13:08,280 --> 01:13:11,960 Speaker 10: Rogers and Hart, City rhythms and blues of George and 1245 01:13:12,000 --> 01:13:16,719 Speaker 10: Ira Gershwin, the sophistication of Cole Porter, the down home 1246 01:13:16,840 --> 01:13:20,479 Speaker 10: poetry of Hoki Carmichael. I'm glad you mentioned Johnny Mercer. 1247 01:13:20,800 --> 01:13:21,519 Speaker 10: You love his stuff. 1248 01:13:21,760 --> 01:13:23,320 Speaker 1: Hellie Carmichael was brilliant. 1249 01:13:23,760 --> 01:13:26,320 Speaker 10: He was He was He Seemen one of the greatest 1250 01:13:26,320 --> 01:13:30,240 Speaker 10: movies ever, the best years of our lives. America's quite 1251 01:13:30,320 --> 01:13:35,040 Speaker 10: essential songwriter was Irving Berlin. I think a Jew from 1252 01:13:35,080 --> 01:13:40,400 Speaker 10: Czarist Russia, actually Siberia. Irving started out at New York's 1253 01:13:40,400 --> 01:13:44,120 Speaker 10: Bowery in nineteen oh six as a singing waiter. English 1254 01:13:44,200 --> 01:13:47,720 Speaker 10: was his second language and he couldn't read music. But 1255 01:13:47,840 --> 01:13:52,920 Speaker 10: Irving Berlin provided the words and music for America Alexander's 1256 01:13:53,040 --> 01:13:55,680 Speaker 10: ragtime band. Gee I Wish I was back in the 1257 01:13:55,800 --> 01:13:58,439 Speaker 10: Army That was sung after both the First and Second 1258 01:13:58,520 --> 01:14:04,160 Speaker 10: World Wars. Girl is like a melody Easter Parade, White Christmas, 1259 01:14:04,760 --> 01:14:09,280 Speaker 10: God Bless America. The list is endless. Every performer of 1260 01:14:09,439 --> 01:14:12,519 Speaker 10: every race and creed has played or sung Irving Berlin 1261 01:14:12,920 --> 01:14:15,960 Speaker 10: and America's other top songwriters of that time for more 1262 01:14:16,000 --> 01:14:20,040 Speaker 10: than one hundred years. Lady Gaga, for one, still does 1263 01:14:20,080 --> 01:14:24,960 Speaker 10: them wonderfully, especially with the late Tony Bennett folks. I 1264 01:14:24,960 --> 01:14:27,760 Speaker 10: don't know if most songs we're here in today will 1265 01:14:27,800 --> 01:14:31,800 Speaker 10: last another one hundred years. It's a touchy subject, since 1266 01:14:31,840 --> 01:14:34,679 Speaker 10: people love whatever music they've grown up with, if only 1267 01:14:34,720 --> 01:14:39,439 Speaker 10: for nostalgia. But let me end with this. Older songs 1268 01:14:40,080 --> 01:14:45,960 Speaker 10: almost always had melodies, and they almost always promoted American values. 1269 01:14:46,320 --> 01:14:49,439 Speaker 10: That may sound corny as Kansas in August to quote 1270 01:14:49,439 --> 01:14:53,599 Speaker 10: a lyric from Rogers and Hammerstein, but it's true. Take 1271 01:14:53,640 --> 01:14:57,320 Speaker 10: a Sinatra ballot from the nineteen forties, not a classic, 1272 01:14:57,600 --> 01:15:00,559 Speaker 10: but typical of the time. It's the same same old 1273 01:15:00,680 --> 01:15:04,960 Speaker 10: dream finds young Frankie with the Bobby socksers longing for 1274 01:15:05,040 --> 01:15:09,080 Speaker 10: a wedding. I can see as steeples surrounded by people, 1275 01:15:09,439 --> 01:15:13,040 Speaker 10: and oh how real it all starts to seem then 1276 01:15:13,439 --> 01:15:17,320 Speaker 10: once you're married. Even that arch sophisticate Cole Porter wrote 1277 01:15:17,640 --> 01:15:21,280 Speaker 10: in his song easy to love. Oh, how we'd bloom, 1278 01:15:21,439 --> 01:15:25,439 Speaker 10: how we'd thrive in a cottage for two or even three, 1279 01:15:25,640 --> 01:15:29,479 Speaker 10: four or five. Oh, try to see your future with me, 1280 01:15:30,040 --> 01:15:34,000 Speaker 10: because they'd be oh so easy to love. Those are 1281 01:15:34,040 --> 01:15:38,200 Speaker 10: the songs that created the greatest generation. But I think 1282 01:15:38,360 --> 01:15:42,000 Speaker 10: America's future will be even greater right now, Brian, if 1283 01:15:42,400 --> 01:15:45,960 Speaker 10: once in a while we listen and maybe even sing 1284 01:15:46,520 --> 01:15:51,920 Speaker 10: some of the old songs about faith, family, kindness, and patriotism, 1285 01:15:52,520 --> 01:15:56,160 Speaker 10: and then building on that legacy, add a few more 1286 01:15:56,240 --> 01:16:00,839 Speaker 10: states to our great American songbook. Now with a speaking 1287 01:16:00,920 --> 01:16:03,880 Speaker 10: voice like yours, you must be a great singer. 1288 01:16:04,800 --> 01:16:07,320 Speaker 1: No, I'm not a great singer. I can carry a tune, 1289 01:16:07,320 --> 01:16:09,160 Speaker 1: there's no question about it, but no one would ever 1290 01:16:09,200 --> 01:16:11,600 Speaker 1: consider me great as far as singing is concerned. 1291 01:16:11,760 --> 01:16:13,160 Speaker 10: But you're rather treated sometime. 1292 01:16:13,360 --> 01:16:16,639 Speaker 1: Your focus, your subject matter focused, And I appreciate that. 1293 01:16:16,680 --> 01:16:20,400 Speaker 1: And it seems to me, you know, societal evolution, it's 1294 01:16:20,439 --> 01:16:24,360 Speaker 1: become far more acceptable to deal with very touchy subject 1295 01:16:24,360 --> 01:16:26,960 Speaker 1: matters and song lyrics. I was writing down various names 1296 01:16:27,000 --> 01:16:29,639 Speaker 1: I wrote down as you were speaking, Woody Guthrie, for example, 1297 01:16:29,680 --> 01:16:34,679 Speaker 1: Pete Seeger, other rebels fighting for a cause and using 1298 01:16:34,680 --> 01:16:38,200 Speaker 1: their music to advance a message. So you can find 1299 01:16:38,280 --> 01:16:41,599 Speaker 1: subject matter driven music throughout the ages that might deviate 1300 01:16:41,640 --> 01:16:45,040 Speaker 1: from these, you know, these appreciated wonderful concepts that you're 1301 01:16:45,080 --> 01:16:46,960 Speaker 1: talking about. But I think it was I don't know 1302 01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:49,120 Speaker 1: when it finally kicked in in earnest. Was it, you know, 1303 01:16:49,160 --> 01:16:52,000 Speaker 1: the Woody Guthrie area that started protesting. I don't know, 1304 01:16:52,080 --> 01:16:53,840 Speaker 1: but of course in the sixties you had a ton 1305 01:16:53,880 --> 01:16:57,360 Speaker 1: of people Joan Bias, Pete seeger Uh, you know, taking 1306 01:16:57,360 --> 01:17:00,120 Speaker 1: the mantle and using music as a form of pro 1307 01:17:00,479 --> 01:17:03,320 Speaker 1: to advance some message. I even had a conversation with 1308 01:17:03,360 --> 01:17:05,680 Speaker 1: Paul Atte just yesterday. I believe it was about a 1309 01:17:05,720 --> 01:17:09,400 Speaker 1: Pink Floyd song. I was defending music taking positions contrary 1310 01:17:09,439 --> 01:17:13,400 Speaker 1: to what I believe. Notably, I have some measure of 1311 01:17:13,479 --> 01:17:15,280 Speaker 1: respect for the use of music if it's done in 1312 01:17:15,360 --> 01:17:17,640 Speaker 1: a brilliant fashion, if it's done lyrically wonderful, and they 1313 01:17:17,640 --> 01:17:20,360 Speaker 1: can deliver a message that makes you go hmm. I 1314 01:17:20,400 --> 01:17:22,240 Speaker 1: appreciate that. And I've always said, you know, if I 1315 01:17:22,320 --> 01:17:26,320 Speaker 1: had to throw out all of the musicians that disagree 1316 01:17:26,360 --> 01:17:28,760 Speaker 1: with me politically, a lot of music that I dearly love, 1317 01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:31,280 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be listening to but there was this song 1318 01:17:31,360 --> 01:17:33,559 Speaker 1: back on the final cut, Pink Floyd's Final cut called 1319 01:17:33,600 --> 01:17:36,680 Speaker 1: Fletcher Memorial Home, and he talks about getting Reagan and 1320 01:17:36,720 --> 01:17:41,599 Speaker 1: Haig and Margaret Thatcher and Monochambag and everybody, all these 1321 01:17:41,720 --> 01:17:44,160 Speaker 1: world leaders put him in a room called the Fletcher 1322 01:17:44,160 --> 01:17:46,599 Speaker 1: Memorial Home. And then the final line in the song 1323 01:17:46,720 --> 01:17:50,200 Speaker 1: is now the Final Solution can be applied, which is 1324 01:17:50,200 --> 01:17:52,720 Speaker 1: horrific when you think about what that means. He was 1325 01:17:52,720 --> 01:17:55,760 Speaker 1: talking about applying the Nazi Final Solution on all these 1326 01:17:55,880 --> 01:17:58,120 Speaker 1: world leaders he's gathered up in a building to let 1327 01:17:58,200 --> 01:17:59,800 Speaker 1: him talk to each other to make themselves feel And 1328 01:18:01,040 --> 01:18:03,400 Speaker 1: I said, you know what, I don't agree with the 1329 01:18:03,400 --> 01:18:06,240 Speaker 1: people he's identified, but you could name a whole bunch 1330 01:18:06,320 --> 01:18:11,960 Speaker 1: of global world leaders, dictators like Jijin Ping, and I conceptually, 1331 01:18:12,080 --> 01:18:15,920 Speaker 1: in a lyrical manner, in a theoretical level, wouldn't mind 1332 01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:18,320 Speaker 1: putting them in a room, have them talk to each other, 1333 01:18:18,360 --> 01:18:20,400 Speaker 1: and then maybe apply the Final solution to all these 1334 01:18:20,439 --> 01:18:23,880 Speaker 1: evil dictators who were a bunch of murderous thugs. Music 1335 01:18:23,920 --> 01:18:29,559 Speaker 1: can be you know, I guess, it can steer the 1336 01:18:29,560 --> 01:18:32,439 Speaker 1: direction of a conversation. It can get you talking. And 1337 01:18:32,479 --> 01:18:35,439 Speaker 1: we had a nice long conversation about the importance of that. 1338 01:18:35,720 --> 01:18:37,120 Speaker 1: So that's my take on it. 1339 01:18:37,200 --> 01:18:39,680 Speaker 10: Jack Atherton, Well, I don't know if it's so much 1340 01:18:39,720 --> 01:18:44,360 Speaker 10: about subject better because we've had protest songs since we 1341 01:18:44,400 --> 01:18:45,200 Speaker 10: first set foot. 1342 01:18:45,520 --> 01:18:46,799 Speaker 1: Oh, Yankee Doodle Dandy. 1343 01:18:47,160 --> 01:18:51,439 Speaker 10: Pilgrims were protesting, they were protestants, That's what it was 1344 01:18:51,479 --> 01:18:55,040 Speaker 10: all about. Yeah, Yankee Doodle Dandy was a protest song. 1345 01:18:55,120 --> 01:18:55,439 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1346 01:18:55,560 --> 01:18:59,759 Speaker 10: John Brown when he was marching off to Harper's Ferry 1347 01:18:59,840 --> 01:19:03,479 Speaker 10: and singing Glory, Gloria, Hallelujah, that was a protest song. True, 1348 01:19:04,040 --> 01:19:07,240 Speaker 10: And you can have protest songs that are protesting all 1349 01:19:07,240 --> 01:19:10,840 Speaker 10: the wrong things. Hitler had his Hitler youth singing the 1350 01:19:10,880 --> 01:19:14,040 Speaker 10: Horse Vessel Song, which was about making the streets free 1351 01:19:14,479 --> 01:19:18,639 Speaker 10: for stormtroopers. You have, But I don't think it's so bad. 1352 01:19:18,680 --> 01:19:21,040 Speaker 10: We hear plenty of protest songs. You can put on 1353 01:19:21,040 --> 01:19:23,960 Speaker 10: the news and watch people in Chicago and Seattle every 1354 01:19:24,040 --> 01:19:27,599 Speaker 10: night of the week protesting with pretty bad songs, I think. 1355 01:19:27,640 --> 01:19:30,720 Speaker 10: But who am I to say? I don't think it's wrong, though, 1356 01:19:30,760 --> 01:19:32,720 Speaker 10: and that's why I brought this up. Love it every 1357 01:19:32,760 --> 01:19:34,920 Speaker 10: once in a while to have a song about gratitude 1358 01:19:35,960 --> 01:19:37,720 Speaker 10: because we have a lot to be grateful for you. 1359 01:19:37,720 --> 01:19:39,479 Speaker 10: You wouldn't know that from a lot of the songs 1360 01:19:39,479 --> 01:19:40,280 Speaker 10: that you hear today. 1361 01:19:40,400 --> 01:19:43,280 Speaker 1: Most of them might say one thing, one category music 1362 01:19:43,280 --> 01:19:44,559 Speaker 1: that I'm not a huge fan of that you can 1363 01:19:44,640 --> 01:19:46,920 Speaker 1: kind of count on for at least being patriotic more 1364 01:19:46,920 --> 01:19:49,439 Speaker 1: often than any other. It's country music. You get some 1365 01:19:49,479 --> 01:19:53,640 Speaker 1: really good, solid patriotic, pro American songs as some of 1366 01:19:53,720 --> 01:19:57,120 Speaker 1: those country artists.

Donald Trump says there is no money left. 1397 01:21:19,800 --> 01:21:22,559 Speaker 1: Lawsuit just filed by twenty five states saying hey, you 1398 01:21:22,640 --> 01:21:25,360 Speaker 1: got five billion dollars you're sitting on. Sadly, even if 1399 01:21:25,400 --> 01:21:27,600 Speaker 1: they win that lawsuit and they allocate that pile of 1400 01:21:27,600 --> 01:21:30,160 Speaker 1: money wherever, that happens to be Donovan, it's not going 1401 01:21:30,200 --> 01:21:31,720 Speaker 1: to be enough to even cover the nut for the 1402 01:21:31,760 --> 01:21:35,559 Speaker 1: month of November, which is widely reported as nine billion dollars, 1403 01:21:35,600 --> 01:21:38,120 Speaker 1: far exceeding the five billion dollars that apparently is laying 1404 01:21:38,160 --> 01:21:39,919 Speaker 1: in a pile somewhere in Washington. 1405 01:21:41,640 --> 01:21:44,559 Speaker 13: Yeah, and that's that's really what we're facing up against. 1406 01:21:44,600 --> 01:21:47,240 Speaker 13: And you've got talking points coming out of you know, 1407 01:21:48,200 --> 01:21:51,280 Speaker 13: radio shows and television interviews with Democrats. Who are you 1408 01:21:51,479 --> 01:21:55,120 Speaker 13: talking about the political pressure point that they're using this for. 1409 01:21:55,280 --> 01:21:58,680 Speaker 13: This isn't about policy, Brian, It's about politics for the 1410 01:21:58,720 --> 01:22:01,320 Speaker 13: Democrats right now, and why they're not breaking ranks in 1411 01:22:01,360 --> 01:22:02,320 Speaker 13: the Schumer shutdown. 1412 01:22:02,479 --> 01:22:04,800 Speaker 1: Right, Well, let's go down the list. Here we have it, 1413 01:22:05,000 --> 01:22:09,800 Speaker 1: among others, Senators Martin Heinrich, paying our troops gives the 1414 01:22:09,800 --> 01:22:13,000 Speaker 1: president more leverage. Bernie Sanders, you reopen the government and 1415 01:22:13,040 --> 01:22:16,200 Speaker 1: we lose our leverage, Chuck Schumer. Every day gets better 1416 01:22:16,280 --> 01:22:20,120 Speaker 1: for us, meaning the Senators, not the American people. Rubin Gallego, 1417 01:22:20,240 --> 01:22:22,880 Speaker 1: then i'd get just go back to another shutdown again 1418 01:22:23,320 --> 01:22:26,360 Speaker 1: after this one. Chris Coons, Frankly, this is our only 1419 01:22:26,400 --> 01:22:29,880 Speaker 1: moment of leverage, and although a very unpleasant tool to use, 1420 01:22:29,960 --> 01:22:33,120 Speaker 1: and finally we have Catherine Clark, Congresswoman. There will be 1421 01:22:33,160 --> 01:22:35,920 Speaker 1: families that are going to suffer, but it is one 1422 01:22:35,920 --> 01:22:38,559 Speaker 1: of the few leverage times we have. Well, they're revealing 1423 01:22:38,560 --> 01:22:41,240 Speaker 1: their hand quite openly. They know it's painful, they know 1424 01:22:41,320 --> 01:22:43,080 Speaker 1: it's stupid, they know they own it. They know that 1425 01:22:43,120 --> 01:22:45,640 Speaker 1: the funding levels have not been reduced. They don't have 1426 01:22:45,680 --> 01:22:49,040 Speaker 1: any argument that the Republicans somehow gutted government spending and 1427 01:22:50,040 --> 01:22:52,960 Speaker 1: passing the clean cr from the twenty twenty four funding levels. 1428 01:22:53,000 --> 01:22:55,680 Speaker 1: I thought that was brilliant from the Republicans taking out 1429 01:22:55,680 --> 01:22:58,439 Speaker 1: that argument that they of course would have. The only 1430 01:22:58,439 --> 01:23:00,400 Speaker 1: thing they have the hand to hang on, the hang 1431 01:23:00,600 --> 01:23:02,559 Speaker 1: to hang their hat on, is that these subsidies are 1432 01:23:02,600 --> 01:23:05,599 Speaker 1: going to end. For Obamacare, subsidies that in their own 1433 01:23:05,680 --> 01:23:09,320 Speaker 1: legislation passed I believe exclusively by Democrats, has a cutoff 1434 01:23:09,400 --> 01:23:11,639 Speaker 1: date of the end of this year. Hm. I guess 1435 01:23:11,680 --> 01:23:16,200 Speaker 1: this is a Democrat's fault. Huh, Donovan, Well, that's absolutely right. 1436 01:23:16,280 --> 01:23:19,080 Speaker 13: They set temporary subsidies to end that have nothing to 1437 01:23:19,120 --> 01:23:22,519 Speaker 13: do with the funding and function of our federal government. 1438 01:23:22,520 --> 01:23:25,559 Speaker 13: And I think that's why Republicans conservatives have the moral 1439 01:23:25,600 --> 01:23:29,160 Speaker 13: high ground in this in this argument and are winning it. 1440 01:23:29,800 --> 01:23:32,479 Speaker 13: But this isn't about winning the argument, right, Brian. It's 1441 01:23:32,520 --> 01:23:34,799 Speaker 13: a budge, just getting to a normal order of business 1442 01:23:34,880 --> 01:23:38,680 Speaker 13: opening our federal government so that you know, these benefits 1443 01:23:38,720 --> 01:23:41,160 Speaker 13: that are you know, promised to individuals in this country 1444 01:23:41,160 --> 01:23:43,120 Speaker 13: are able to flow to them, so that we can 1445 01:23:43,160 --> 01:23:46,799 Speaker 13: get back to getting the budget done in both chambers 1446 01:23:46,800 --> 01:23:48,760 Speaker 13: and sent to the President's desk, so for the first 1447 01:23:48,760 --> 01:23:50,719 Speaker 13: time and forever, we can actually have a normal budget 1448 01:23:50,760 --> 01:23:54,840 Speaker 13: process and fund our federal government. And here's the thing too, Brian, 1449 01:23:55,000 --> 01:23:57,559 Speaker 13: that we're not talking about as well, but starting to 1450 01:23:57,560 --> 01:24:00,880 Speaker 13: come into focus. We're not getting done because we're stuck 1451 01:24:00,880 --> 01:24:04,439 Speaker 13: in this stalemate. Right. We've got opportunities to do immigration reform. 1452 01:24:04,479 --> 01:24:07,439 Speaker 13: We've secured the border through the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, 1453 01:24:07,439 --> 01:24:11,120 Speaker 13: but there's opportunities here to further reformer immigration system so 1454 01:24:11,160 --> 01:24:13,559 Speaker 13: that it works for the people coming to this country 1455 01:24:13,560 --> 01:24:16,200 Speaker 13: and the people in this country already. We've got opportunities 1456 01:24:16,320 --> 01:24:18,759 Speaker 13: to do more in terms of decisions in reforming government 1457 01:24:18,760 --> 01:24:20,679 Speaker 13: to make it work better for the people. And here's 1458 01:24:20,720 --> 01:24:23,400 Speaker 13: a big one, permitting reform. We've got to get permitting 1459 01:24:23,439 --> 01:24:27,000 Speaker 13: reform done so we can unleash energy abundance and help, 1460 01:24:27,320 --> 01:24:30,400 Speaker 13: you know, bring down the costs for homeowners as well 1461 01:24:30,400 --> 01:24:32,759 Speaker 13: as manufacturers in this country when it comes to energy. 1462 01:24:32,800 --> 01:24:36,200 Speaker 13: Although that's not happening, Brian, because we're stuck in this 1463 01:24:36,280 --> 01:24:39,400 Speaker 13: Schumer shutdown. That's sucking all the oxygen out of the room. 1464 01:24:39,520 --> 01:24:41,240 Speaker 1: All right, head caller earlier in the program, and I 1465 01:24:41,280 --> 01:24:43,400 Speaker 1: think it's an important time to interject this question. Maybe 1466 01:24:43,400 --> 01:24:45,040 Speaker 1: you have the answer, maybe you don't, but it seems 1467 01:24:45,040 --> 01:24:48,879 Speaker 1: to me odd if the Republicans weren't in recess, couldn't 1468 01:24:48,880 --> 01:24:52,040 Speaker 1: they be working on things? Couldn't they be sitting down 1469 01:24:52,080 --> 01:24:54,639 Speaker 1: and working on appropriations bills or at least maybe making 1470 01:24:54,640 --> 01:24:57,320 Speaker 1: phone calls as senators are obviously still doing their job, well, 1471 01:24:57,360 --> 01:24:59,599 Speaker 1: not doing their job, but at least is still in Washington, DC. 1472 01:25:00,000 --> 01:25:02,240 Speaker 1: Get him out of recess, let him start working on legislation. 1473 01:25:02,320 --> 01:25:06,240 Speaker 1: Couldn't they actually, is it possible for them to pass 1474 01:25:06,320 --> 01:25:09,479 Speaker 1: something out of committee even during a government shutdown, because 1475 01:25:09,520 --> 01:25:12,000 Speaker 1: they're still being paid their salaries. They could still do 1476 01:25:12,040 --> 01:25:15,400 Speaker 1: their work and show up in DC, pass something out 1477 01:25:15,439 --> 01:25:18,760 Speaker 1: of committee, put it up for a vote, and to 1478 01:25:18,920 --> 01:25:19,519 Speaker 1: it happens. 1479 01:25:20,640 --> 01:25:24,200 Speaker 13: Yeah, I'm not entirely plugged into the strategy that Speaker 1480 01:25:24,280 --> 01:25:26,639 Speaker 13: Johnson has in terms of how he's running his chamber 1481 01:25:26,680 --> 01:25:29,120 Speaker 13: with this. But my understanding is, and I think it 1482 01:25:29,800 --> 01:25:31,920 Speaker 13: fits in is right as a matter of policy, is 1483 01:25:32,560 --> 01:25:36,920 Speaker 13: the House of Representatives got their clean Continuing Resolution done 1484 01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:39,240 Speaker 13: back on September nineteenth. That was the deal that was 1485 01:25:39,320 --> 01:25:44,840 Speaker 13: negotiated with Jeffreyes and Schumer and a Senate majority leadership. 1486 01:25:45,000 --> 01:25:51,200 Speaker 13: But then when Schumer started getting unrest from his left flank, 1487 01:25:52,200 --> 01:25:54,600 Speaker 13: he realized he had to This was a This was 1488 01:25:55,400 --> 01:25:56,920 Speaker 13: a point where he had to put a put a 1489 01:25:56,960 --> 01:25:59,400 Speaker 13: stake in the ground and cause the shutdown. 1490 01:25:59,680 --> 01:26:01,400 Speaker 12: We need to get done. 1491 01:26:01,520 --> 01:26:05,280 Speaker 13: Is it's real simple, pass the clean Continuing Resolution. The 1492 01:26:05,320 --> 01:26:09,120 Speaker 13: Senate has had thirteen opportunities to pass this. Republicans and 1493 01:26:09,160 --> 01:26:12,880 Speaker 13: three Democrats have joined consistently to open the government up. 1494 01:26:13,120 --> 01:26:16,439 Speaker 13: That would cause Congress to come back into session, would 1495 01:26:16,439 --> 01:26:18,439 Speaker 13: get these committees moving, And I think really as a 1496 01:26:18,439 --> 01:26:23,519 Speaker 13: matter of principle, this is a clarifying moment for America 1497 01:26:23,560 --> 01:26:27,479 Speaker 13: and for Congress. Are we going to allow folks like 1498 01:26:27,680 --> 01:26:30,360 Speaker 13: Senator Schumer and the Democrats in the Senate to use 1499 01:26:30,360 --> 01:26:32,920 Speaker 13: this as a circus to score political points on President 1500 01:26:32,960 --> 01:26:35,800 Speaker 13: Trump and the new Republican majority, or are we going 1501 01:26:35,840 --> 01:26:38,559 Speaker 13: to get to a normal order business, reopen the government 1502 01:26:38,560 --> 01:26:41,080 Speaker 13: with a clean continuing resolution and then go back to 1503 01:26:41,160 --> 01:26:45,000 Speaker 13: debating and discussing bills with an open government rather than 1504 01:26:45,040 --> 01:26:46,280 Speaker 13: a closed federal government. 1505 01:26:46,400 --> 01:26:49,360 Speaker 1: Well, I'm a little perplexed by the idea that they 1506 01:26:49,960 --> 01:26:52,960 Speaker 1: in insisting on this painful government shutdown, which will become 1507 01:26:52,960 --> 01:26:55,240 Speaker 1: more painful for a lot of regular Americans each and 1508 01:26:55,280 --> 01:26:58,160 Speaker 1: every day, that they can score points against Trump off 1509 01:26:58,200 --> 01:27:01,719 Speaker 1: of keeping the government shut down. Let's review Democrat votes 1510 01:27:01,840 --> 01:27:05,400 Speaker 1: required to open the government. Democrats have voted thirteen times 1511 01:27:05,400 --> 01:27:08,719 Speaker 1: to keep it closed. Democrats refuse to fund government unless 1512 01:27:08,720 --> 01:27:12,120 Speaker 1: Congress restores left wing projects, and Democrats admit to using 1513 01:27:12,160 --> 01:27:15,559 Speaker 1: pain as leverage and boast every day that it gets 1514 01:27:15,560 --> 01:27:17,200 Speaker 1: better for us. Some of the quotes I just gave 1515 01:27:17,240 --> 01:27:19,720 Speaker 1: you all the all the arrows, all the facts, all 1516 01:27:19,760 --> 01:27:22,280 Speaker 1: the information points of the Democrats owning this thing. How 1517 01:27:22,320 --> 01:27:25,320 Speaker 1: in the hell could it possibly inure to their benefit? 1518 01:27:25,760 --> 01:27:28,040 Speaker 1: And to be a point against Donald Trump, who's screaming 1519 01:27:28,080 --> 01:27:30,040 Speaker 1: about trying to get the government back open. 1520 01:27:29,800 --> 01:27:33,760 Speaker 13: Again, Well, a lot of ways it's that messaging war, right, 1521 01:27:33,920 --> 01:27:38,479 Speaker 13: making sure that that folks aren't distracted with the dips, 1522 01:27:38,560 --> 01:27:41,400 Speaker 13: dives and dodges that the crabs are doing right now, 1523 01:27:41,439 --> 01:27:43,240 Speaker 13: and that's a lot of what you're seeing right It 1524 01:27:43,320 --> 01:27:46,840 Speaker 13: started out as this is about, you know, health making 1525 01:27:46,880 --> 01:27:50,880 Speaker 13: sure that we make permanent these COVID subsidies for Obamacare. Well, 1526 01:27:50,880 --> 01:27:55,040 Speaker 13: then it's about, you know, we've got to restore some 1527 01:27:55,120 --> 01:27:57,519 Speaker 13: things that were lost into one big beautiful bill act 1528 01:27:57,720 --> 01:28:01,040 Speaker 13: that you know, impacted folks on Medicaid. And then it's shifting, 1529 01:28:01,200 --> 01:28:04,760 Speaker 13: you know, it shifts every week into something different that 1530 01:28:05,000 --> 01:28:07,679 Speaker 13: the Schumer shutdown is about. And why the Democrats they're 1531 01:28:07,680 --> 01:28:12,360 Speaker 13: looking for something to stick here. The reality is September nineteenth, 1532 01:28:12,400 --> 01:28:15,920 Speaker 13: Republicans passed a clean continuing resolution, sent it over to 1533 01:28:16,000 --> 01:28:19,320 Speaker 13: the Senate, well ahead of the October first funding deadline 1534 01:28:19,720 --> 01:28:23,320 Speaker 13: into the fiscal year. Democrats chose to shut down the 1535 01:28:23,320 --> 01:28:25,960 Speaker 13: federal government rather than vote for a clean, no frills 1536 01:28:26,000 --> 01:28:29,840 Speaker 13: continuing resolution, and that they've got to hang that hat 1537 01:28:29,880 --> 01:28:32,240 Speaker 13: on their heads now. And that's the important thing of 1538 01:28:32,280 --> 01:28:34,920 Speaker 13: getting out there and talking about this is that it's 1539 01:28:34,920 --> 01:28:39,760 Speaker 13: a very easy fixed Brian. As you've outlined, there's nothing 1540 01:28:39,760 --> 01:28:43,200 Speaker 13: to negotiate, nothing to a broker. It's just open the government. 1541 01:28:43,360 --> 01:28:47,840 Speaker 13: A very simple premise that is being convoluted in the 1542 01:28:48,439 --> 01:28:52,160 Speaker 13: mainstream media by by Democrats and their allies. 1543 01:28:52,200 --> 01:28:54,000 Speaker 1: All right, let's just say for the sake of discussion 1544 01:28:54,040 --> 01:28:56,200 Speaker 1: that the Democrats can pitulate, they open the government back up, 1545 01:28:56,200 --> 01:28:59,360 Speaker 1: and they continue this ongoing discussion over the extension of 1546 01:28:59,400 --> 01:29:01,720 Speaker 1: these supplements, which is what the Republicans say they are 1547 01:29:01,760 --> 01:29:04,000 Speaker 1: willing to do once you get the government open. Now, 1548 01:29:04,320 --> 01:29:05,960 Speaker 1: do I really believe the Republicans are going to be 1549 01:29:06,000 --> 01:29:08,719 Speaker 1: interested in continuing these subsidies down the road? Not really. 1550 01:29:08,760 --> 01:29:11,759 Speaker 1: And the Democrats, I think, appreciate that, which means opening 1551 01:29:11,760 --> 01:29:13,720 Speaker 1: the government up is going to end the debate over 1552 01:29:13,760 --> 01:29:15,880 Speaker 1: the continuation of the subsidies. But do you think, in 1553 01:29:15,880 --> 01:29:17,240 Speaker 1: the back of your mind or do you think, as 1554 01:29:17,280 --> 01:29:20,040 Speaker 1: a matter of going forward, if it were to go 1555 01:29:20,160 --> 01:29:22,599 Speaker 1: in that order, the government opens, they sit back down 1556 01:29:22,640 --> 01:29:24,720 Speaker 1: at the negotiation table, do you think there's a lot 1557 01:29:24,720 --> 01:29:27,599 Speaker 1: of Republicans or enough Republicans to capitulate and give them 1558 01:29:27,760 --> 01:29:29,920 Speaker 1: something in return by way of supplements. 1559 01:29:31,560 --> 01:29:33,880 Speaker 13: Oh, I mean, that's part of how Washington works, right, 1560 01:29:33,920 --> 01:29:37,920 Speaker 13: That's politics is a lot of negotiating, debating, and discussing 1561 01:29:38,439 --> 01:29:40,960 Speaker 13: on ideas. Now, whether certain folks will come to the 1562 01:29:40,960 --> 01:29:43,439 Speaker 13: table in good faith or not that there's a whole 1563 01:29:43,479 --> 01:29:46,879 Speaker 13: other factor at play. But I think, you know, throughout 1564 01:29:46,920 --> 01:29:49,519 Speaker 13: the process, going back to the passing the one big 1565 01:29:49,520 --> 01:29:51,800 Speaker 13: beautiful bill at the working Family's tax cuts, right, there 1566 01:29:51,800 --> 01:29:54,960 Speaker 13: were opportunities for Democrats to vote the support of many 1567 01:29:54,960 --> 01:29:57,840 Speaker 13: of those provisions right that they would say they agree with, right, 1568 01:29:57,920 --> 01:30:00,720 Speaker 13: no tax on overtime, no tax on tips, making sure 1569 01:30:00,760 --> 01:30:05,960 Speaker 13: that working Ohioans Americans keep their lower tax rates. But 1570 01:30:07,040 --> 01:30:09,280 Speaker 13: you know, they allow themselves, I think, to get tangled 1571 01:30:09,320 --> 01:30:11,960 Speaker 13: up on the areas where there's more disagreement than agreement, 1572 01:30:12,080 --> 01:30:15,040 Speaker 13: and I think there's opportunities for debate on that. That's 1573 01:30:15,080 --> 01:30:17,560 Speaker 13: how this works, That's how the process works, and the 1574 01:30:17,600 --> 01:30:20,240 Speaker 13: opportunity we have now. I believe it was Senator Housted 1575 01:30:20,280 --> 01:30:22,439 Speaker 13: who said this at a function I was at a 1576 01:30:22,439 --> 01:30:24,839 Speaker 13: few weeks back. You know, we can debate and discuss 1577 01:30:24,880 --> 01:30:28,320 Speaker 13: these things with the government shut down and not functioning, 1578 01:30:28,400 --> 01:30:30,080 Speaker 13: or we can debate and discuss these things with the 1579 01:30:30,120 --> 01:30:34,960 Speaker 13: government open and functioning like normal. And that's really the question. 1580 01:30:35,000 --> 01:30:36,840 Speaker 13: Do we want to debate these things while people are 1581 01:30:36,880 --> 01:30:39,800 Speaker 13: losing their snap benefits, military members are going and paid 1582 01:30:40,640 --> 01:30:44,760 Speaker 13: air traffic controllers are going on demonstration and walking off 1583 01:30:44,760 --> 01:30:47,000 Speaker 13: the job. Or do we want to do this where 1584 01:30:47,120 --> 01:30:51,000 Speaker 13: folks are getting their benefits, federal employees are being paid 1585 01:30:51,600 --> 01:30:53,960 Speaker 13: to do their jobs. DC police are getting paid to 1586 01:30:54,000 --> 01:30:56,200 Speaker 13: do their jobs, and our military men and women are 1587 01:30:56,200 --> 01:30:58,400 Speaker 13: being able to send their paychecks home to their families. 1588 01:30:59,120 --> 01:31:02,040 Speaker 13: It's real simple. I choose that option. Right, Let's go open 1589 01:31:02,040 --> 01:31:03,519 Speaker 13: the government up and have to te to have these 1590 01:31:03,520 --> 01:31:04,920 Speaker 13: debates and discussions and see. 1591 01:31:04,760 --> 01:31:05,360 Speaker 7: Where we land. 1592 01:31:05,479 --> 01:31:07,599 Speaker 1: All right, I presume that the call to action will 1593 01:31:07,640 --> 01:31:10,920 Speaker 1: be for our listening audience to have these discussions out 1594 01:31:10,960 --> 01:31:13,000 Speaker 1: loud with their neighbors and their friends.

I've 1663 01:34:44,800 --> 01:34:48,080 Speaker 7: been on about eight flights now, and it just it's 1664 01:34:48,120 --> 01:34:50,920 Speaker 7: so uplifting, just the assault of the earth people to 1665 01:34:51,000 --> 01:34:54,639 Speaker 7: have eighty seven veterans and their guardians too. As luck 1666 01:34:54,640 --> 01:34:56,400 Speaker 7: would have it, I was sitting right next to on 1667 01:34:56,439 --> 01:34:59,200 Speaker 7: the bus all day long.

We did that. 1675 01:35:20,840 --> 01:35:23,760 Speaker 7: You know, mission accomplished. But now we have a new 1676 01:35:23,840 --> 01:35:26,760 Speaker 7: charter because we all know what those Vietnam vets went through. 1677 01:35:27,320 --> 01:35:29,920 Speaker 7: And the last portion of our day we spend about 1678 01:35:29,920 --> 01:35:31,720 Speaker 7: two two and a half hours right there in the 1679 01:35:31,760 --> 01:35:35,439 Speaker 7: triangle between the Lincoln Memorial, the Korean War Memorial, and 1680 01:35:35,479 --> 01:35:38,040 Speaker 7: the Vietnam Wall.

But to spend that 1689 01:36:02,400 --> 01:36:05,040 Speaker 7: two hours there assisting these Vietnam vets because a lot 1690 01:36:05,080 --> 01:36:07,280 Speaker 7: of them they may have seen the Traveling Wall, but 1691 01:36:07,320 --> 01:36:11,360 Speaker 7: it's their first time actually seeing the wall just so compelling. Yeah, 1692 01:36:11,439 --> 01:36:12,360 Speaker 7: to hear the story. 1693 01:36:12,880 --> 01:36:16,400 Speaker 1: Sorry, no, I get it all day long.

But when 1700 01:36:33,720 --> 01:36:35,680 Speaker 1: you're there and you see it and you see all 1701 01:36:35,680 --> 01:36:39,920 Speaker 1: those names there, I'm my opinion of the Vietnam War 1702 01:36:40,000 --> 01:36:44,880 Speaker 1: Memorial Memorial changed just instantaneously.

Thiji 1795 01:41:12,080 --> 01:41:16,479 Speaker 1: on paid administrative leave while this investigation goes on. And 1796 01:41:16,520 --> 01:41:19,400 Speaker 1: I'll let you speak to this investigation they've launched. Apparently 1797 01:41:19,439 --> 01:41:21,439 Speaker 1: they're going to be looking through I guess with twenty 1798 01:41:21,479 --> 01:41:24,680 Speaker 1: twenty hindsight every single thing that Police Chief Thiji did 1799 01:41:24,800 --> 01:41:26,679 Speaker 1: during her four years in the role of police chief 1800 01:41:27,400 --> 01:41:31,600 Speaker 1: between now and December with some retained law firm from Columbus. 1801 01:41:31,600 --> 01:41:33,400 Speaker 1: So we'll get to that in a moment, but real 1802 01:41:33,479 --> 01:41:37,040 Speaker 1: quickly here, I want to thank you on behalf of 1803 01:41:37,160 --> 01:41:41,080 Speaker 1: the Greater Cincinnati Listening audience for what you and your 1804 01:41:41,120 --> 01:41:44,120 Speaker 1: family have done, your career in law enforcement, your brother, 1805 01:41:44,479 --> 01:41:46,880 Speaker 1: and of course Police Chief Thiji's career.

It's nice to hear. 1816 01:42:16,520 --> 01:42:18,800 Speaker 1: Is anybody suggesting that it is.

We appreciate the recognition, but the focus here 1820 01:42:26,439 --> 01:42:29,600 Speaker 4: is Terry and it is where we hope voters in 1821 01:42:29,640 --> 01:42:35,080 Speaker 4: the city of Cincinnati specifically challenge themselves to be open 1822 01:42:35,160 --> 01:42:38,280 Speaker 4: to an except new leadership, and we can get further 1823 01:42:38,320 --> 01:42:38,880 Speaker 4: into that, and. 1824 01:42:38,800 --> 01:42:41,720 Speaker 1: We will definitely do that. Russ. The city's got a 1825 01:42:41,720 --> 01:42:44,719 Speaker 1: problem with crime. I talk to people all the time, 1826 01:42:44,800 --> 01:42:46,880 Speaker 1: you know, Yeah, it's a pain down there. Look what happens. 1827 01:42:46,920 --> 01:42:49,559 Speaker 1: I mean, we got Holly getting clocked in the face 1828 01:42:49,600 --> 01:42:52,320 Speaker 1: for no reason by some random dude that she wasn't 1829 01:42:52,360 --> 01:42:54,960 Speaker 1: even doing anything but rendering assistance. We have a Sarah 1830 01:42:54,960 --> 01:42:57,280 Speaker 1: Herringer who gets her husband's stabbed in there over the 1831 01:42:57,360 --> 01:43:00,160 Speaker 1: Rhine apartment right in front of her. He died in 1832 01:43:00,200 --> 01:43:02,800 Speaker 1: her arms just a couple of and in addition to 1833 01:43:02,840 --> 01:43:05,200 Speaker 1: all the gunshots ringing out, all the other murders and 1834 01:43:05,320 --> 01:43:08,639 Speaker 1: all the other mayhem, the violence of property crimes. Everybody's saying, 1835 01:43:08,640 --> 01:43:10,840 Speaker 1: we've got a crying problem downtown since that, except may 1836 01:43:10,880 --> 01:43:12,840 Speaker 1: I have to have parvol who up until about five 1837 01:43:12,880 --> 01:43:16,439 Speaker 1: seconds ago, kept going around. No, you have a perception problem. 1838 01:43:16,560 --> 01:43:21,400 Speaker 1: It's a perception problem. So then pleasee g. Three g 1839 01:43:21,400 --> 01:43:23,400 Speaker 1: gets thiet, he gets left, that your sister gets let go. 1840 01:43:23,520 --> 01:43:25,479 Speaker 1: I don't how can I connect this? And how is 1841 01:43:25,520 --> 01:43:27,760 Speaker 1: it that she's a scapegoat. She worked for him. 1842 01:43:27,840 --> 01:43:30,000 Speaker 4: Let me let me flow into this if we could, if. 1843 01:43:29,920 --> 01:43:31,880 Speaker 1: We have time, and I could interjet. 1844 01:43:32,000 --> 01:43:35,320 Speaker 4: I want cover Terry's career just a little bit. Thirty 1845 01:43:35,320 --> 01:43:39,400 Speaker 4: four years, a mom of four, grandmother and nine at 1846 01:43:39,400 --> 01:43:45,559 Speaker 4: this stage dedicated, committed, loyal, honest, direct and strong, and 1847 01:43:45,640 --> 01:43:48,600 Speaker 4: she committed those years of this city. And people that 1848 01:43:48,640 --> 01:43:52,160 Speaker 4: are in position of authority now have elected to scapegoader 1849 01:43:52,200 --> 01:43:54,320 Speaker 4: and set that aside. I go back to It's not 1850 01:43:54,360 --> 01:43:56,719 Speaker 4: about the Neville family. It's about the treatment of people 1851 01:43:56,720 --> 01:44:00,120 Speaker 4: who currently in future desire to sit in that position 1852 01:44:00,240 --> 01:44:02,519 Speaker 4: or other administrative positions such as fire chief. 1853 01:44:02,880 --> 01:44:04,920 Speaker 11: Those are very very critical issues. 1854 01:44:05,000 --> 01:44:08,880 Speaker 4: And it's about dignity and respect. We transition from that 1855 01:44:09,240 --> 01:44:13,160 Speaker 4: to the political element of it. Family of eighty plus 1856 01:44:13,200 --> 01:44:16,200 Speaker 4: Brian forty or fifty or a voter age, we're Democrats 1857 01:44:16,240 --> 01:44:20,200 Speaker 4: in independence Republicans. We vote across the board, we talk 1858 01:44:20,280 --> 01:44:22,720 Speaker 4: across the board, and we're fortunate that we can do 1859 01:44:22,760 --> 01:44:24,639 Speaker 4: that as a family and still get along and enjoy 1860 01:44:24,680 --> 01:44:31,520 Speaker 4: sitting down together. Point being, the mayor has failed in 1861 01:44:31,600 --> 01:44:35,280 Speaker 4: managing this city, and we as a family for those 1862 01:44:35,360 --> 01:44:37,559 Speaker 4: that continue to vote in the city, in those otherwise 1863 01:44:37,560 --> 01:44:39,919 Speaker 4: in the county which it reaches out to, in other elements, 1864 01:44:41,479 --> 01:44:47,360 Speaker 4: we recognize collectively that this is about leadership change in 1865 01:44:47,400 --> 01:44:54,839 Speaker 4: the city the mayor, regardless of your party, this borders 1866 01:44:54,840 --> 01:45:00,120 Speaker 4: on inhumane the treatment of Chief Thiji Terry Thiji when 1867 01:45:00,160 --> 01:45:03,719 Speaker 4: he is leading this. I don't care what anybody says, 1868 01:45:04,360 --> 01:45:06,439 Speaker 4: and we will wait for other elements to come out 1869 01:45:06,479 --> 01:45:08,439 Speaker 4: as the lawyers on their side and the lawyers on 1870 01:45:08,520 --> 01:45:10,639 Speaker 4: Terry side do what they do, and we'll leave that 1871 01:45:10,920 --> 01:45:17,120 Speaker 4: process work itself out. He's wasting tax dollars. It's the 1872 01:45:17,200 --> 01:45:19,920 Speaker 4: timing of the waste of tax dollars. When the money's 1873 01:45:19,960 --> 01:45:23,439 Speaker 4: not there, the resources aren't there. He placed around leave, 1874 01:45:23,479 --> 01:45:27,880 Speaker 4: then hires a law firm to conduct an inquiry. It's 1875 01:45:27,920 --> 01:45:32,080 Speaker 4: a gross misuse of resources. And the constituents deserve better. 1876 01:45:33,320 --> 01:45:34,960 Speaker 4: They deserve better. And then when we get to the 1877 01:45:35,040 --> 01:45:37,400 Speaker 4: crime discussion that you offered up with, this. 1878 01:45:37,920 --> 01:45:39,519 Speaker 11: Crime is an EBB and flow Brian. 1879 01:45:39,640 --> 01:45:42,040 Speaker 4: Of course, you go back and look ten years, five years, 1880 01:45:42,080 --> 01:45:45,240 Speaker 4: it's an evan flow. Different neighborhoods, different neighborhoods, gets hit, 1881 01:45:45,600 --> 01:45:48,120 Speaker 4: You manage it, you control it, you put programs, you 1882 01:45:48,160 --> 01:45:52,720 Speaker 4: put resources. Here's what gets me. There's fifty two communities 1883 01:45:52,760 --> 01:45:56,280 Speaker 4: in this city. The mayor didn't step up and say 1884 01:45:56,320 --> 01:45:59,719 Speaker 4: a word, didn't take actions until it hit the central 1885 01:45:59,720 --> 01:46:02,680 Speaker 4: Business district, which it's a shame it has, and there 1886 01:46:02,720 --> 01:46:04,519 Speaker 4: are plans and processes. 1887 01:46:04,000 --> 01:46:04,640 Speaker 11: To improve that. 1888 01:46:05,040 --> 01:46:08,040 Speaker 4: What about the other fifty one communities when he had 1889 01:46:08,040 --> 01:46:10,800 Speaker 4: an opportunity to step up and make a voice and 1890 01:46:10,840 --> 01:46:13,840 Speaker 4: make a point and try to do something silent? So 1891 01:46:13,880 --> 01:46:15,120 Speaker 4: who's he really a mayor for. 1892 01:46:15,560 --> 01:46:17,720 Speaker 1: It's not for the city, No, clearly not. And I 1893 01:46:17,760 --> 01:46:19,439 Speaker 1: mean I could go straight to the whole Hyde Park 1894 01:46:19,479 --> 01:46:23,719 Speaker 1: development project. He throws connected communities over every neighborhood without 1895 01:46:23,720 --> 01:46:26,679 Speaker 1: consulting any local neighborhood about its own personal self direction, 1896 01:46:27,040 --> 01:46:29,640 Speaker 1: then makes exceptions for well connected developers. He did it 1897 01:46:29,680 --> 01:46:32,080 Speaker 1: to bond Hill. But then again he doesn't care what 1898 01:46:32,120 --> 01:46:35,320 Speaker 1: the constituents say. They scream out loud, he ignores them. 1899 01:46:35,360 --> 01:46:37,200 Speaker 1: So I guess he's serving his own political interest in 1900 01:46:37,200 --> 01:46:39,720 Speaker 1: his own whim. But back to the retention to this 1901 01:46:39,800 --> 01:46:42,320 Speaker 1: law firm. If you read the retention letter or the 1902 01:46:42,320 --> 01:46:45,120 Speaker 1: information that came out about it, they've been hired to 1903 01:46:45,200 --> 01:46:48,439 Speaker 1: look at her record. It sounds to me like to 1904 01:46:49,000 --> 01:46:53,320 Speaker 1: find some justification letter go. He didn't say out loud 1905 01:46:53,479 --> 01:46:56,559 Speaker 1: anything that she did to justify him placing your own 1906 01:46:56,560 --> 01:46:59,040 Speaker 1: administrative leave in the first place. So now he's got 1907 01:46:59,040 --> 01:47:00,800 Speaker 1: a search committee out there looking for something in a 1908 01:47:00,840 --> 01:47:02,880 Speaker 1: record so he can come back later and fill in 1909 01:47:02,880 --> 01:47:06,240 Speaker 1: the blank. Oh yeah, by the way, back in October, 1910 01:47:06,439 --> 01:47:08,439 Speaker 1: the reason I put her on in Australia's leads because 1911 01:47:08,560 --> 01:47:11,240 Speaker 1: this thing she did two years ago, which isn't even 1912 01:47:11,280 --> 01:47:12,240 Speaker 1: on her record right now. 1913 01:47:12,280 --> 01:47:15,639 Speaker 2: And it's interesting that you know, five eight nine days 1914 01:47:15,640 --> 01:47:19,960 Speaker 2: before this came about, he stated to my brother that 1915 01:47:20,200 --> 01:47:24,040 Speaker 2: there was no light between them, that he had full 1916 01:47:24,080 --> 01:47:27,200 Speaker 2: confidence and faith and confidence in her. What happened, it 1917 01:47:27,240 --> 01:47:32,960 Speaker 2: wasn't Terry's performance and it's asked backwards. Anybody that pays 1918 01:47:32,960 --> 01:47:36,439 Speaker 2: attention or follows the treatment of people, or anybody's been 1919 01:47:36,479 --> 01:47:39,160 Speaker 2: in a management position, and those who have been reporting 1920 01:47:39,200 --> 01:47:42,880 Speaker 2: to management positions, they realize that this is backwards and 1921 01:47:43,160 --> 01:47:47,040 Speaker 2: will allow what they do to the process to go forward. 1922 01:47:48,000 --> 01:47:50,920 Speaker 2: I don't see them finding anything in Terry's history that 1923 01:47:50,960 --> 01:47:54,679 Speaker 2: would be questionable to anybody, and we'll see what Terry's 1924 01:47:54,680 --> 01:47:57,719 Speaker 2: attorney does with it from there. But it's asked backwards. 1925 01:47:57,760 --> 01:47:58,880 Speaker 2: There's no better way to say it. 1926 01:47:59,200 --> 01:48:01,400 Speaker 1: Well, and they've been down this road before. You made 1927 01:48:01,520 --> 01:48:03,840 Speaker 1: mentioned briefly of the fire department. We all know what 1928 01:48:03,920 --> 01:48:07,439 Speaker 1: happened to Michael Washington. Michael Washington's going to get a big, 1929 01:48:07,560 --> 01:48:10,759 Speaker 1: fat paycheck complements of the city taxpayers as a consequence 1930 01:48:10,800 --> 01:48:14,760 Speaker 1: of him being terminated without cause. This sounds like lining 1931 01:48:14,840 --> 01:48:17,760 Speaker 1: up for number two. They are already demonstrably incompetent in 1932 01:48:17,760 --> 01:48:20,439 Speaker 1: the treatment of him. Looks like let's gear up for 1933 01:48:20,479 --> 01:48:21,280 Speaker 1: another big check. 1934 01:48:21,960 --> 01:48:23,840 Speaker 4: I mean, obviously I can't speak on the check, I 1935 01:48:23,840 --> 01:48:29,960 Speaker 4: can't speak on the ligation, but I will say what 1936 01:48:30,000 --> 01:48:35,760 Speaker 4: they're doing is wrong, it's out of line, it's inhumane, 1937 01:48:36,160 --> 01:48:38,799 Speaker 4: and it's a combination of the mayor and the manager. 1938 01:48:38,840 --> 01:48:40,559 Speaker 11: And for the mayor to set back and act as 1939 01:48:40,560 --> 01:48:41,400 Speaker 11: if he doesn't. 1940 01:48:41,160 --> 01:48:44,040 Speaker 2: Have an influence on this or some involvement in this 1941 01:48:44,080 --> 01:48:46,040 Speaker 2: is a blatant lie to his constituents. 1942 01:48:46,760 --> 01:48:50,599 Speaker 1: Blatant lied to his constituents. In studio, retired Captain russ Neville, 1943 01:48:50,600 --> 01:48:53,520 Speaker 1: after a story curis insign police Department from an amazing 1944 01:48:54,080 --> 01:48:57,760 Speaker 1: law enforcement family. Will continue talking about this issue that 1945 01:48:57,800 --> 01:49:00,120 Speaker 1: we all can say something about because guess what, the 1946 01:49:00,160 --> 01:49:02,800 Speaker 1: elections next Tuesday, and you do have an opportunity to vote. 1947 01:49:02,800 --> 01:49:04,800 Speaker 1: And remember, the definition of stupidity is doing the same 1948 01:49:04,840 --> 01:49:07,639 Speaker 1: thing over and over again expecting a different result. Forty 1949 01:49:07,720 --> 01:49:09,840 Speaker 1: years worth here in the city of Cincinnati. How are 1950 01:49:09,880 --> 01:49:16,719 Speaker 1: your roads parenthetically eight to fifteen station, it's eight nineteen 1951 01:49:16,800 --> 01:49:19,120 Speaker 1: fifty five ker CD talk station.

Russ Neville, retired Captain of the 1954 01:49:24,640 --> 01:49:28,840 Speaker 1: Cincinnati Police Department thirty four years. He said, that's just 1955 01:49:28,960 --> 01:49:33,800 Speaker 1: absolutely amazing, all right, insofar as police chief. Theji's concerned again, 1956 01:49:33,880 --> 01:49:37,360 Speaker 1: your sister and you're well connected with this issue because 1957 01:49:37,360 --> 01:49:40,000 Speaker 1: of some family reasons. But simply because and by virtue 1958 01:49:40,040 --> 01:49:42,080 Speaker 1: of your being a police officer for so long, you 1959 01:49:42,120 --> 01:49:45,360 Speaker 1: know exactly how all of this works. Now, there was 1960 01:49:45,400 --> 01:49:49,960 Speaker 1: a day prior to Issue five being passed where the collective, 1961 01:49:50,040 --> 01:49:53,680 Speaker 1: the police officers themselves chose I believe, from among their 1962 01:49:53,680 --> 01:49:55,840 Speaker 1: own ranks who they wanted elevated a police chief. I 1963 01:49:55,880 --> 01:49:59,799 Speaker 1: think the last person to have that was a chief Striker, correct, 1964 01:50:00,360 --> 01:50:03,280 Speaker 1: And I guess politics being what it is, Striker was 1965 01:50:03,320 --> 01:50:06,240 Speaker 1: immune from being let go for any reason whatsoever because 1966 01:50:06,240 --> 01:50:08,799 Speaker 1: he was subject to the union benefits in the corrective 1967 01:50:08,840 --> 01:50:11,800 Speaker 1: bargaining agreement. So they changed the law. Issue five was 1968 01:50:11,840 --> 01:50:14,719 Speaker 1: passed that gives exclusive control over the hiring and firing 1969 01:50:14,760 --> 01:50:17,160 Speaker 1: of the fire chief and police chief to the city 1970 01:50:17,200 --> 01:50:20,120 Speaker 1: manager and the mayor. Not even council gets to vote 1971 01:50:20,120 --> 01:50:20,360 Speaker 1: on this. 1972 01:50:20,800 --> 01:50:24,760 Speaker 4: That's correct, So at least the manager. I don't know 1973 01:50:24,760 --> 01:50:27,680 Speaker 4: what influence the mayor has, but by Issue five, if 1974 01:50:27,680 --> 01:50:30,680 Speaker 4: I understand correctly, it's the city managers responsibilit higher well, 1975 01:50:30,680 --> 01:50:30,880 Speaker 4: and I. 1976 01:50:30,960 --> 01:50:32,840 Speaker 1: Make the argument because the manager is at the behest 1977 01:50:32,840 --> 01:50:34,800 Speaker 1: of the mayor, then we all know who's ultimately pulling 1978 01:50:34,840 --> 01:50:38,040 Speaker 1: the strings here or operating the puppet, as the case 1979 01:50:38,080 --> 01:50:42,840 Speaker 1: may be. FOP nod. So something seems to me out 1980 01:50:42,840 --> 01:50:48,799 Speaker 1: of this very politicized thing that's going on to your sister, 1981 01:50:48,960 --> 01:50:53,320 Speaker 1: the political nature of her being well put on administrative leave, 1982 01:50:53,360 --> 01:50:55,519 Speaker 1: the wise of areforce, what led to this when things 1983 01:50:55,560 --> 01:50:58,480 Speaker 1: seem to be so swimmingly wonderful, but with their relationship 1984 01:51:00,200 --> 01:51:02,880 Speaker 1: need to be readdressed. Now. I thought Christopher Smithman had 1985 01:51:02,960 --> 01:51:06,160 Speaker 1: a great idea, and I know that you've I think 1986 01:51:06,200 --> 01:51:08,639 Speaker 1: you're in line at least along in a similar path 1987 01:51:08,680 --> 01:51:11,759 Speaker 1: of Christopher's idea. Get the council members involved on some level. 1988 01:51:11,760 --> 01:51:14,000 Speaker 1: What's your proposal? What do you think needs to be. 1989 01:51:13,960 --> 01:51:16,599 Speaker 4: Now one hundred percent agree with what both Kenny Kober, 1990 01:51:17,240 --> 01:51:21,280 Speaker 4: the FOP president, and Chris Smithman wisely have shared in 1991 01:51:21,280 --> 01:51:25,600 Speaker 4: some fashion. The authority to hire and or fire or 1992 01:51:25,640 --> 01:51:29,320 Speaker 4: remove for whatever reason for just cause should be somehow 1993 01:51:29,360 --> 01:51:32,840 Speaker 4: placed with council, such as a seven of nine or 1994 01:51:32,880 --> 01:51:36,120 Speaker 4: a unanimous voute, not a simple majority where you get 1995 01:51:36,120 --> 01:51:38,519 Speaker 4: five to four. It should be a stronger. You're talking 1996 01:51:38,520 --> 01:51:41,479 Speaker 4: about people's livelihood. You're talking about what impacts years of 1997 01:51:41,560 --> 01:51:45,960 Speaker 4: efforts and programs and planning and resourcing. So it needs 1998 01:51:45,960 --> 01:51:48,680 Speaker 4: to be a much deeper thought. And I think it 1999 01:51:48,720 --> 01:51:50,759 Speaker 4: has to go in front of a body much larger 2000 01:51:50,760 --> 01:51:51,519 Speaker 4: than an individual. 2001 01:51:51,640 --> 01:51:55,120 Speaker 1: Well, you said more than five, because of course I 2002 01:51:55,160 --> 01:51:57,240 Speaker 1: remember Gang of five like it was yesterday. So you 2003 01:51:57,280 --> 01:51:59,519 Speaker 1: can get some nefarious activity going on behind the scenes, 2004 01:52:00,080 --> 01:52:03,839 Speaker 1: set up firing. That's correct, easy to accomplish. Most notably, 2005 01:52:04,760 --> 01:52:06,240 Speaker 1: did you know that there's a vote next week? We 2006 01:52:06,280 --> 01:52:08,280 Speaker 1: get to vote on Tuesday and maybe change the administration. 2007 01:52:08,320 --> 01:52:11,200 Speaker 1: Most notably, since all of the current council members are Democrat, 2008 01:52:11,240 --> 01:52:15,479 Speaker 1: the likelihood of a uniform one lockstep vote is almost 2009 01:52:15,560 --> 01:52:18,640 Speaker 1: assured under the current circumstances. We really do need some 2010 01:52:18,720 --> 01:52:19,920 Speaker 1: different voices, Russ. 2011 01:52:20,080 --> 01:52:23,920 Speaker 4: One of the reasons, obviously, the primary reason that I 2012 01:52:24,040 --> 01:52:28,360 Speaker 4: come on and the family requests a voice is to 2013 01:52:28,479 --> 01:52:32,639 Speaker 4: defend and support Terry. The second is to discuss voting 2014 01:52:33,479 --> 01:52:37,200 Speaker 4: there is it's there's no simpler way to say it 2015 01:52:37,320 --> 01:52:42,320 Speaker 4: than the city needs new leadership, specifically at the mayor's position. 2016 01:52:43,560 --> 01:52:47,559 Speaker 4: Early votings on going, Brian. It's seven thirty seven thirty 2017 01:52:47,560 --> 01:52:50,000 Speaker 4: Monday through Friday. If you want to early vote, early vote, 2018 01:52:50,040 --> 01:52:54,559 Speaker 4: you've got time. It's open Saturday till four, open Sunday 2019 01:52:54,680 --> 01:52:57,640 Speaker 4: till five. Please take advantage of the early voting and 2020 01:52:57,720 --> 01:52:59,800 Speaker 4: a point I'd like to make is if you have 2021 01:53:00,320 --> 01:53:05,559 Speaker 4: voted in years for whatever reason, but you're registered, just 2022 01:53:05,600 --> 01:53:08,360 Speaker 4: to go to vote Hamilton County, Ohio dot org and 2023 01:53:08,360 --> 01:53:11,680 Speaker 4: see if you're still a registered and approved voter and 2024 01:53:11,880 --> 01:53:16,280 Speaker 4: go vote. Nothing will change, whether it be city or 2025 01:53:16,320 --> 01:53:19,920 Speaker 4: in the future county, but specifically, nothing will change city. 2026 01:53:19,960 --> 01:53:22,800 Speaker 4: If the people who think this is wrong, if the 2027 01:53:22,840 --> 01:53:25,639 Speaker 4: people who think this is in humane, or the people 2028 01:53:25,840 --> 01:53:28,320 Speaker 4: out there who hear what the mayor says and says 2029 01:53:28,360 --> 01:53:31,080 Speaker 4: that's not the kind of leader I want leading our city, 2030 01:53:31,360 --> 01:53:34,679 Speaker 4: please vote. And I'm specifically talking to to some degree, 2031 01:53:35,120 --> 01:53:38,080 Speaker 4: the West side of Cincinnati. I think the West side 2032 01:53:38,080 --> 01:53:40,360 Speaker 4: of Cincinnati has an opportunity. 2033 01:53:39,720 --> 01:53:41,200 Speaker 11: To protect themselves here. 2034 01:53:41,600 --> 01:53:44,200 Speaker 4: I think they've been excluded from politics for quite a 2035 01:53:44,200 --> 01:53:46,800 Speaker 4: few years. This is your chance to come out, make 2036 01:53:46,840 --> 01:53:49,280 Speaker 4: a vote, change leadership and have a voice and a 2037 01:53:49,280 --> 01:53:51,920 Speaker 4: seat at the table. In addition to the Hyde Parks 2038 01:53:51,920 --> 01:53:55,720 Speaker 4: and Mount Washington's and Mount Lookouts, absolutely all fifty two communities, 2039 01:53:56,000 --> 01:53:58,519 Speaker 4: but the fifteen on the West Side have been neglected. 2040 01:53:58,560 --> 01:54:00,880 Speaker 4: Brian and I am begging them to come out and 2041 01:54:00,920 --> 01:54:01,519 Speaker 4: make a vote. 2042 01:54:01,560 --> 01:54:03,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's time to retake the flag over on the 2043 01:54:03,600 --> 01:54:07,559 Speaker 1: West side, I believe. So Listen, I grew up on 2044 01:54:07,560 --> 01:54:10,240 Speaker 1: the West Side. I'm a delhesion by my roots man, 2045 01:54:10,280 --> 01:54:13,880 Speaker 1: and what has happened over the years to you know, 2046 01:54:13,920 --> 01:54:19,000 Speaker 1: Price Hill and Westwood, it's just deteriorated. And I'm not 2047 01:54:19,000 --> 01:54:21,680 Speaker 1: blaming any particular individual, but it seems to me that 2048 01:54:21,720 --> 01:54:24,320 Speaker 1: the West Side's sort of been the I don't know 2049 01:54:24,320 --> 01:54:25,960 Speaker 1: if I can put it this way, the Section eight, 2050 01:54:26,640 --> 01:54:31,320 Speaker 1: you know, relocation area. I know they rehabilitated and gentrified 2051 01:54:31,360 --> 01:54:33,120 Speaker 1: over the Rhine. A lot of former Over the Rhine 2052 01:54:33,120 --> 01:54:34,960 Speaker 1: residents can't afford to live there anymore. They had to 2053 01:54:35,000 --> 01:54:37,480 Speaker 1: go someplace. Don't know if that's an issue or not. 2054 01:54:37,560 --> 01:54:39,200 Speaker 1: I just know the West Side does not look like 2055 01:54:39,280 --> 01:54:41,080 Speaker 1: it did, say fifteen, even twenty years. 2056 01:54:41,080 --> 01:54:43,520 Speaker 4: And I'll even take it a step further. I do 2057 01:54:43,640 --> 01:54:45,560 Speaker 4: focus on the West Side. That's where we grew up 2058 01:54:45,560 --> 01:54:47,280 Speaker 4: and I grew up, and I think we have tremendous 2059 01:54:47,280 --> 01:54:49,160 Speaker 4: support there and I hope they come out and vote. 2060 01:54:49,840 --> 01:54:52,400 Speaker 4: Let's go back to fifty two communities in the city. 2061 01:54:52,800 --> 01:54:54,600 Speaker 11: They deserve better leadership. 2062 01:54:54,200 --> 01:54:56,360 Speaker 4: As they do, and the only way they're going to 2063 01:54:56,400 --> 01:54:59,520 Speaker 4: get is if they potentially step out of their comfort 2064 01:54:59,600 --> 01:55:03,680 Speaker 4: zone and vote different than historically have voted and give somebody, 2065 01:55:03,760 --> 01:55:06,880 Speaker 4: a group of people an opportunity to show more and 2066 01:55:06,960 --> 01:55:08,400 Speaker 4: better going forward for the city. 2067 01:55:08,840 --> 01:55:12,200 Speaker 1: Well, I believe Corey Bowman does have prioritization, correct. I 2068 01:55:12,240 --> 01:55:15,440 Speaker 1: know he is very anxious to get the roads resurfaced. 2069 01:55:15,480 --> 01:55:18,440 Speaker 1: He's very anxious to do a better analysis of the 2070 01:55:18,440 --> 01:55:21,440 Speaker 1: police department, support the police, get the contingent of police 2071 01:55:21,480 --> 01:55:24,320 Speaker 1: officers up to a full contingent. He would take the 2072 01:55:24,400 --> 01:55:27,160 Speaker 1: resources I think offered from the governor to get us 2073 01:55:27,160 --> 01:55:29,440 Speaker 1: to that contingent to see if that solves the crime 2074 01:55:29,480 --> 01:55:31,960 Speaker 1: problem we've got going on here. At least try it. 2075 01:55:32,640 --> 01:55:35,320 Speaker 1: Don't reimagine the police department. Just take up the resources 2076 01:55:35,320 --> 01:55:36,880 Speaker 1: that you got in front of us. Let's see what 2077 01:55:36,880 --> 01:55:37,360 Speaker 1: we can do. 2078 01:55:37,520 --> 01:55:41,880 Speaker 4: If you sit back now and you believe that things 2079 01:55:41,880 --> 01:55:45,440 Speaker 4: are good, consider voting the way you've been voting. If 2080 01:55:45,480 --> 01:55:49,280 Speaker 4: you think change needs to be either, don't vote for 2081 01:55:49,320 --> 01:55:51,560 Speaker 4: the current leadership when you go to vote for council 2082 01:55:52,520 --> 01:55:56,160 Speaker 4: meaning the mayor or I go back to come out 2083 01:55:56,160 --> 01:55:59,560 Speaker 4: of your comfort zone. Try something new and let's see 2084 01:55:59,600 --> 01:56:00,000 Speaker 4: what we can do. 2085 01:56:00,720 --> 01:56:03,120 Speaker 1: There will be another election down the road. Give them 2086 01:56:03,160 --> 01:56:06,800 Speaker 1: a shot. You may be surprised. Russ Neville. Thank you 2087 01:56:06,840 --> 01:56:10,680 Speaker 1: for your service to our community.

So to reach that full 2123 01:58:00,280 --> 01:58:03,760 Speaker 1: sized candy bar and get a pocket constitution with the signature, 2124 01:58:04,000 --> 01:58:05,880 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to make a hell of a journey. 2125 01:58:05,880 --> 01:58:07,720 Speaker 1: Welcome back here, correct. 2126 01:58:07,480 --> 01:58:09,400 Speaker 3: And I'm in New York and the farm is in 2127 01:58:09,400 --> 01:58:13,920 Speaker 3: New Jersey. I really thought that Ingram would mention the 2128 01:58:14,000 --> 01:58:17,800 Speaker 3: Bengals Jets game. I was waiting to hear, Oh God, 2129 01:58:18,560 --> 01:58:21,440 Speaker 3: sorry to raise a sore spot how good the Bengals 2130 01:58:21,480 --> 01:58:23,200 Speaker 3: loves to the worst team in football. 2131 01:58:23,400 --> 01:58:25,800 Speaker 1: Oh, we become used to that. We always snatched a 2132 01:58:26,000 --> 01:58:28,640 Speaker 1: defeat from the jaws of victory here in Cincinnati, your honor, 2133 01:58:28,960 --> 01:58:30,440 Speaker 1: we're just waiting for it to have it. I was 2134 01:58:30,480 --> 01:58:32,840 Speaker 1: so sad about that, because everybody in the crowd was 2135 01:58:32,840 --> 01:58:35,200 Speaker 1: so enthusiastic until the end of the third quarter and 2136 01:58:35,240 --> 01:58:39,120 Speaker 1: then just just fell off the rail. So anyhow, we're 2137 01:58:39,200 --> 01:58:40,120 Speaker 1: used to disappointment. 2138 01:58:41,080 --> 01:58:43,160 Speaker 3: Anyway, how are you. It's a pleasure to be with your. 2139 01:58:43,120 --> 01:58:44,920 Speaker 1: Brother, Always a pleasure to have you on. I'm always 2140 01:58:44,960 --> 01:58:46,720 Speaker 1: in a great move when you're on the program, sir. 2141 01:58:46,840 --> 01:58:51,960 Speaker 1: And I was actually in a total state of disbelief 2142 01:58:52,040 --> 01:58:54,000 Speaker 1: with your column, which I'm fortunate enough to get an 2143 01:58:54,000 --> 01:58:56,560 Speaker 1: early copy out comes out tonight at midnight. Jailed in 2144 01:58:56,640 --> 01:59:00,160 Speaker 1: America for free speech. I was not familiar with the 2145 01:59:00,280 --> 01:59:02,360 Speaker 1: subject matter that you got to, which you always did. 2146 01:59:02,440 --> 01:59:04,720 Speaker 1: Larry Buschard and what happened to him, I don't know 2147 01:59:04,760 --> 01:59:07,720 Speaker 1: how that flew underneath my radar, sir, but this in America, 2148 01:59:07,800 --> 01:59:10,520 Speaker 1: that this happened, is to say. 2149 01:59:10,440 --> 01:59:15,200 Speaker 3: A retired twenty four year police corrections officer, a veteran, 2150 01:59:16,000 --> 01:59:19,400 Speaker 3: not a fan of Charlie Kirk, or of the movement 2151 01:59:20,000 --> 01:59:29,320 Speaker 3: Charlie successfully created and advanced, and after Charlie's unfortunate, tragic, 2152 01:59:29,360 --> 01:59:36,280 Speaker 3: and horrific murder, posted a lot of incendiary statements critical 2153 01:59:36,480 --> 01:59:41,360 Speaker 3: of Charlie, critical of what this cop believed Charlie believed, 2154 01:59:41,720 --> 01:59:44,520 Speaker 3: and critical of the people who were mourning his death. 2155 01:59:45,480 --> 01:59:50,480 Speaker 3: In one of those postings, he quoted something President Trump 2156 01:59:50,720 --> 01:59:54,800 Speaker 3: said when he was candidate Trump totally out of context. 2157 01:59:55,200 --> 01:59:57,360 Speaker 3: So now I've got to go back to a year 2158 01:59:57,360 --> 02:00:03,400 Speaker 3: and a half ago, these horrible murders in a school 2159 02:00:03,640 --> 02:00:08,760 Speaker 3: in Perry County, Iowa. Trump is a candidate. Two days later, 2160 02:00:08,920 --> 02:00:11,080 Speaker 3: people are saying, you know, we got to clamp down 2161 02:00:11,080 --> 02:00:14,080 Speaker 3: on Second Amendment rights. And Trump made a very innocent, 2162 02:00:14,240 --> 02:00:18,160 Speaker 3: what I thought was poignant, excellent statement, we have to 2163 02:00:18,160 --> 02:00:23,240 Speaker 3: get over it, just like that. Now, this fellow Buschhart, 2164 02:00:23,280 --> 02:00:26,480 Speaker 3: in the middle of the kerfuffle that occurred after the 2165 02:00:26,680 --> 02:00:30,800 Speaker 3: Charlie Kirk murder, where people were losing their jobs, where 2166 02:00:30,840 --> 02:00:36,640 Speaker 3: foreign students were losing their visas, where people were being 2167 02:00:36,680 --> 02:00:41,200 Speaker 3: disciplined because of what they said about Charlie, this fella 2168 02:00:41,320 --> 02:00:45,920 Speaker 3: Buschhart posts Trump's statement, we got to get over it. 2169 02:00:46,240 --> 02:00:53,360 Speaker 3: He posts it. Remember the statement was made about Perry County, Iowa. 2170 02:00:53,840 --> 02:01:00,160 Speaker 3: He posts it in where he lives, which is Perry County, Tennessee. 2171 02:01:00,480 --> 02:01:05,240 Speaker 3: The local sheriff says, you're posting something about killing people 2172 02:01:05,280 --> 02:01:11,640 Speaker 3: in a school. You're threatening mass killings in the Perry 2173 02:01:11,640 --> 02:01:14,720 Speaker 3: County High School. We're going to arrest you. Now. There 2174 02:01:14,800 --> 02:01:20,560 Speaker 3: is simply no connection whatsoever between quoting something candidate Donald 2175 02:01:20,600 --> 02:01:24,440 Speaker 3: Trump said about a killing in Iowa in twenty twenty 2176 02:01:24,480 --> 02:01:29,840 Speaker 3: four and the death of Charlie Kirk. There's no connection whatsoever. 2177 02:01:30,840 --> 02:01:37,320 Speaker 3: How this sheriff's office sheriff, without an investigation, without an interrogation, 2178 02:01:37,800 --> 02:01:41,840 Speaker 3: without any evidence about the present of parent ability to 2179 02:01:42,320 --> 02:01:45,640 Speaker 3: do what he says this retired cop was threatening to do, 2180 02:01:46,120 --> 02:01:50,000 Speaker 3: locked him up, and then the court imposed a bail 2181 02:01:50,080 --> 02:01:52,960 Speaker 3: of two million dollars. This is a guy living on 2182 02:01:53,000 --> 02:02:00,760 Speaker 3: a pension, and when his lawyers asked to have the reduced, 2183 02:02:01,480 --> 02:02:05,280 Speaker 3: she the judge delayed their request for two months. This 2184 02:02:05,480 --> 02:02:10,920 Speaker 3: is some sort of a small town gimmick to impair 2185 02:02:11,040 --> 02:02:14,280 Speaker 3: this guy's First Amendment rights because he's an irritant and 2186 02:02:14,360 --> 02:02:17,120 Speaker 3: they don't like what he posts on the Facebook. They 2187 02:02:17,120 --> 02:02:20,400 Speaker 3: don't understand what he wrote. Guess what The First Amendment 2188 02:02:20,440 --> 02:02:25,919 Speaker 3: protects speech, even that which is absurd and unintelligible except 2189 02:02:25,920 --> 02:02:26,720 Speaker 3: to the speaker. 2190 02:02:28,840 --> 02:02:32,920 Speaker 1: Well, and that the statement that he quoted from Donald 2191 02:02:32,960 --> 02:02:36,240 Speaker 1: Trump eighteen months prior was not Donald Trump advocating for 2192 02:02:36,320 --> 02:02:39,080 Speaker 1: school shootings, right son. 2193 02:02:39,360 --> 02:02:43,000 Speaker 3: Donald Trump advocating for it's a tragedy. Let's turn the 2194 02:02:43,080 --> 02:02:48,240 Speaker 3: page a perfectly appropriate statement to make about the school 2195 02:02:48,240 --> 02:02:51,720 Speaker 3: shootings in Iowa and about the death of Charlie Kirk. 2196 02:02:53,640 --> 02:02:56,560 Speaker 3: So you have a sheriff here, popularly elected. You have 2197 02:02:56,600 --> 02:03:00,480 Speaker 3: a judge here, popularly elected. You have a base, a 2198 02:03:00,560 --> 02:03:06,120 Speaker 3: population base probably decidedly pro Kirk. And here is an 2199 02:03:06,120 --> 02:03:09,880 Speaker 3: opportunity for this sheriff and this judge to burnish their 2200 02:03:09,880 --> 02:03:15,720 Speaker 3: political credentials by locking somebody up because he exercised the 2201 02:03:15,760 --> 02:03:18,280 Speaker 3: freedom of speech. I had never heard of this guy. 2202 02:03:18,280 --> 02:03:19,960 Speaker 3: I had never heard of the sheriff. I never heard 2203 02:03:20,000 --> 02:03:25,480 Speaker 3: of Perry County, Tennessee, until I saw this in the intercept. 2204 02:03:26,560 --> 02:03:30,160 Speaker 3: A website checked it out. It's accurate, and decided I 2205 02:03:30,200 --> 02:03:34,680 Speaker 3: got to write about this because even in small town America, 2206 02:03:35,440 --> 02:03:37,240 Speaker 3: the freedom of speech can suffer. 2207 02:03:37,760 --> 02:03:41,600 Speaker 1: And Lord Almighty Judge inn of Paulitano, you're on all 2208 02:03:41,680 --> 02:03:45,080 Speaker 1: the time you're judging freedom podcast, you're on my show, 2209 02:03:45,120 --> 02:03:47,520 Speaker 1: You're on a multitude of different shows. You speak regularly. 2210 02:03:47,560 --> 02:03:49,480 Speaker 1: You have a free speech right. You know you can 2211 02:03:49,520 --> 02:03:52,480 Speaker 1: exercise it. But this case illustrates and so do I. 2212 02:03:52,840 --> 02:03:55,800 Speaker 1: There but for the grace of God, some corrupt public 2213 02:03:55,840 --> 02:03:58,320 Speaker 1: official who's got a bone to pick with you can 2214 02:03:58,480 --> 02:04:01,240 Speaker 1: just haul you off to jail and get a complicit 2215 02:04:01,360 --> 02:04:03,480 Speaker 1: judge to keep you in jail. You mentioned in the 2216 02:04:03,560 --> 02:04:05,840 Speaker 1: article what does it take fifteen minutes to do a 2217 02:04:05,880 --> 02:04:09,560 Speaker 1: bail hearing? They kicked this bail hearing off, effectively denying 2218 02:04:09,920 --> 02:04:12,360 Speaker 1: him of his liberty. Because what pensioner can come up 2219 02:04:12,360 --> 02:04:15,520 Speaker 1: with even ten percent of two million dollars? They stick 2220 02:04:15,600 --> 02:04:17,120 Speaker 1: them in jail and keep him there for a couple 2221 02:04:17,160 --> 02:04:17,720 Speaker 1: of months. 2222 02:04:18,360 --> 02:04:23,120 Speaker 3: How about the Eighth Amendment? Nor shall excessive bail be required? 2223 02:04:23,640 --> 02:04:26,600 Speaker 3: So in a case in which there's no evidence of violence, 2224 02:04:26,640 --> 02:04:29,280 Speaker 3: the guy has no criminal record, He as an excellent 2225 02:04:29,320 --> 02:04:32,600 Speaker 3: record as a police officer and corrections officer in that 2226 02:04:32,760 --> 02:04:37,480 Speaker 3: county for twenty four years. He lives off his pension 2227 02:04:37,560 --> 02:04:40,040 Speaker 3: and social security, and they're going to impose a bail 2228 02:04:40,120 --> 02:04:44,120 Speaker 3: of two million dollars as if he were a billionaire. Yeah, 2229 02:04:44,280 --> 02:04:48,440 Speaker 3: This just smacks of some sort of corruption, not necessarily 2230 02:04:48,480 --> 02:04:55,640 Speaker 3: financial corruption, but political corruption. And you know, my libertarian 2231 02:04:55,720 --> 02:04:59,240 Speaker 3: friends often say states rights, states rights, states rights, the 2232 02:04:59,280 --> 02:05:02,320 Speaker 3: states can be tyrants too. Yes, this is an example 2233 02:05:02,360 --> 02:05:02,680 Speaker 3: of it. 2234 02:05:02,920 --> 02:05:05,320 Speaker 1: Well, and I don't know a state constitution that doesn't 2235 02:05:05,320 --> 02:05:07,520 Speaker 1: have a First Amendment in it. All of them do. 2236 02:05:07,600 --> 02:05:10,040 Speaker 1: That's incorporated into it. And of course it applies the states, 2237 02:05:10,040 --> 02:05:14,800 Speaker 1: it applies to governments. This is key First Amendment grounds. Here, 2238 02:05:14,880 --> 02:05:17,640 Speaker 1: a government cannot deprive you of your freedom of speech. 2239 02:05:17,720 --> 02:05:19,640 Speaker 1: Now a business can. Going back to your point about 2240 02:05:19,640 --> 02:05:21,880 Speaker 1: people losing their jobs for posts about Charlie Kirk or 2241 02:05:21,920 --> 02:05:24,720 Speaker 1: really anything else. You can have your own speech practices 2242 02:05:24,800 --> 02:05:27,280 Speaker 1: in a private business that isn't funded by government or 2243 02:05:27,280 --> 02:05:30,480 Speaker 1: working at the behest of government. Sorry, that's the corporate rules, 2244 02:05:30,560 --> 02:05:33,160 Speaker 1: but not in the case of government or government entities. 2245 02:05:33,920 --> 02:05:37,200 Speaker 3: Correct. So you know there are some private entities like 2246 02:05:37,520 --> 02:05:43,720 Speaker 3: Princeton University, almost any university exactly as an example. They 2247 02:05:43,880 --> 02:05:46,280 Speaker 3: are bound by the Bill of Rights. They agreed to 2248 02:05:46,320 --> 02:05:48,560 Speaker 3: be bound by the Bill of Rights when they accepted 2249 02:05:48,640 --> 02:05:52,240 Speaker 3: the federal funds. So they can't discipline a student or 2250 02:05:52,240 --> 02:05:54,600 Speaker 3: a professor because of what the student or the professor, 2251 02:05:54,680 --> 02:06:00,400 Speaker 3: or an administrator, even a janitor said, but iHeartRadio News, Max, 2252 02:06:00,480 --> 02:06:03,120 Speaker 3: Fox News, CNN. If they don't like something that one 2253 02:06:03,200 --> 02:06:05,440 Speaker 3: of us says, what's happened to all of us, they 2254 02:06:05,440 --> 02:06:08,080 Speaker 3: could take us off air for a week, or even 2255 02:06:08,320 --> 02:06:12,200 Speaker 3: under certain circumstances, not pay us for a week. The 2256 02:06:12,240 --> 02:06:15,960 Speaker 3: government is not involved. We get it. We get it. 2257 02:06:16,000 --> 02:06:20,400 Speaker 3: The owner of a business can protect the business if 2258 02:06:20,400 --> 02:06:25,440 Speaker 3: he believes that an employee is adversely impairing the business. 2259 02:06:26,080 --> 02:06:31,200 Speaker 3: But the government cannot evaluate the content of speech and 2260 02:06:31,280 --> 02:06:34,080 Speaker 3: say I don't like what he said about Charlie Kirk. 2261 02:06:34,400 --> 02:06:37,680 Speaker 3: I don't like his use of Trump's language from one 2262 02:06:37,720 --> 02:06:40,440 Speaker 3: tragedy to another. I'm going to lock him up. Man. 2263 02:06:40,480 --> 02:06:45,440 Speaker 3: That is an indicator of authoritarianism and a rejection of 2264 02:06:45,520 --> 02:06:49,400 Speaker 3: basic constitutional values. I didn't mention the sheriff's name. I 2265 02:06:49,400 --> 02:06:52,000 Speaker 3: don't want to get involved with the guy. But Americans 2266 02:06:52,120 --> 02:06:57,720 Speaker 3: need to be wary of small people who have the 2267 02:06:57,880 --> 02:06:59,600 Speaker 3: power to. 2268 02:06:59,640 --> 02:07:03,880 Speaker 1: Impair your freedom. Amen, and we can leave it on 2269 02:07:03,920 --> 02:07:07,520 Speaker 1: that note, Judge, Editor Paul Tamo brilliant. I can't thank 2270 02:07:07,560 --> 02:07:09,960 Speaker 1: you enough for bringing this to my attention. I'm a Paul. 2271 02:07:10,040 --> 02:07:12,200 Speaker 1: I thought I was reading an article about the UK 2272 02:07:12,440 --> 02:07:14,480 Speaker 1: or Germany where they don't have a First Amendment, they 2273 02:07:14,560 --> 02:07:16,840 Speaker 1: arrest people for what they say all the time. This 2274 02:07:16,920 --> 02:07:18,760 Speaker 1: is the United States, this is Tennessee. 2275 02:07:18,880 --> 02:07:21,640 Speaker 3: For God's sake, and just to prove I'm a good guy, 2276 02:07:22,000 --> 02:07:23,560 Speaker 3: go Bengals. 2277 02:07:23,640 --> 02:07:25,920 Speaker 1: Well, thank you for that. It's like prayer. We could 2278 02:07:25,920 --> 02:07:28,240 Speaker 1: all use all we can get. Judge. 2279 02:07:28,280 --> 02:07:30,480 Speaker 3: Do they still have that Italian kid from New Jersey 2280 02:07:30,520 --> 02:07:31,879 Speaker 3: that they just traded for? 2281 02:07:32,000 --> 02:07:34,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah they did.

You can pronounce it either way. 2308 02:08:53,400 --> 02:08:55,240 Speaker 1: This is what was sub mariner, because well I like 2309 02:08:55,280 --> 02:08:57,880 Speaker 1: the Rolex submariner watch. But really, however you pronounce it, 2310 02:08:57,880 --> 02:08:59,640 Speaker 1: you called it an earlier. He was part of Honor 2311 02:08:59,640 --> 02:09:02,400 Speaker 1: flight yesterdays. He always is, and I just want to 2312 02:09:02,400 --> 02:09:04,080 Speaker 1: personally think, as I did earlier, I'm going to do 2313 02:09:04,120 --> 02:09:07,360 Speaker 1: it again. Everyone who showed up last night at CVG 2314 02:09:08,080 --> 02:09:11,080 Speaker 1: lots of allergy outbreaks, corning to Mike, who actually had 2315 02:09:11,080 --> 02:09:13,680 Speaker 1: one while he was giving me an update from the 2316 02:09:13,680 --> 02:09:17,000 Speaker 1: Honor Flight. So it's just a beautiful organization. And as 2317 02:09:17,000 --> 02:09:19,240 Speaker 1: he pointed out, a quarter of a million veterans have 2318 02:09:19,320 --> 02:09:22,000 Speaker 1: been flown to Washington, d C. From the multiple Honor 2319 02:09:22,040 --> 02:09:24,960 Speaker 1: Flight organizations that exist across this great land of ours. 2320 02:09:25,480 --> 02:09:30,200 Speaker 1: An illustration, another illustration, I might point out why this 2321 02:09:30,280 --> 02:09:33,320 Speaker 1: is a great land, so especially for those Vietnam veterans 2322 02:09:33,360 --> 02:09:35,360 Speaker 1: who were deprived of welcome home when they returned from 2323 02:09:35,400 --> 02:09:38,400 Speaker 1: their service to our country. And someone to call it. 2324 02:09:38,440 --> 02:09:40,240 Speaker 1: Speaking of calling in, we just had a caller call in. 2325 02:09:40,240 --> 02:09:42,360 Speaker 1: Wanted to be a reminder on where the next listener 2326 02:09:42,480 --> 02:09:44,480 Speaker 1: lunch is. It's next Wednesday, and I hope to see 2327 02:09:44,520 --> 02:09:48,200 Speaker 1: you there, and please, Dear God, can we celebrate, but 2328 02:09:48,360 --> 02:09:54,720 Speaker 1: we have something to celebrate next Wednesday. Open voting going 2329 02:09:54,760 --> 02:09:56,880 Speaker 1: on right now. We heard from uss Neville earlier reminding 2330 02:09:56,880 --> 02:09:58,560 Speaker 1: you of the residents of the city of Cincinnati, you 2331 02:09:58,600 --> 02:10:01,200 Speaker 1: do have a chance to change things. Could we celebrate that. 2332 02:10:01,400 --> 02:10:05,360 Speaker 1: Maybe High Grain Brewery the Brentwood location. Don't go to 2333 02:10:05,400 --> 02:10:07,919 Speaker 1: the other one. Go to Brentwood location of High Grain Brewery. 2334 02:10:08,920 --> 02:10:10,920 Speaker 1: And that's where we're going to be for listener lunch. 2335 02:10:11,000 --> 02:10:13,720 Speaker 1: I think we've been there before. Yes we have. So 2336 02:10:13,760 --> 02:10:17,120 Speaker 1: the Brentwood Location Food Drink Fellowship is what it's all 2337 02:10:17,120 --> 02:10:19,400 Speaker 1: about at listener lunch and again I just cannot wait 2338 02:10:19,440 --> 02:10:22,000 Speaker 1: and hopefully we will be in a celebratory mood. So 2339 02:10:23,840 --> 02:10:25,720 Speaker 1: I started out the program this morning on a tear 2340 02:10:25,760 --> 02:10:31,440 Speaker 1: about the establishment clause because California Governor Gavin Newsom, mister 2341 02:10:31,480 --> 02:10:35,400 Speaker 1: abortion on demand among everything else, now citing scripture because well, 2342 02:10:35,440 --> 02:10:39,560 Speaker 1: the Democrats won't open up the federal government. Yeah, the 2343 02:10:39,600 --> 02:10:42,200 Speaker 1: audacity of a Democrat to do this when you know 2344 02:10:42,520 --> 02:10:45,200 Speaker 1: asked he should have consulted the ACLU before he started 2345 02:10:45,240 --> 02:10:50,200 Speaker 1: citing scripture and support of government policy. First Amendment Establishment, 2346 02:10:50,280 --> 02:10:53,280 Speaker 1: cause there is no establishment of religion. Our founding fathers 2347 02:10:53,360 --> 02:10:58,440 Speaker 1: lived through that nonsense with the Church of England. We 2348 02:10:58,560 --> 02:11:03,400 Speaker 1: are not a theocracy, and somebody always come out you 2349 02:11:03,440 --> 02:11:06,560 Speaker 1: know we're we're a Christian nation. No, we are a 2350 02:11:06,640 --> 02:11:10,840 Speaker 1: nation that's majority Christian. You know what who I love 2351 02:11:10,880 --> 02:11:14,760 Speaker 1: as a politician, I love vivank Ramaswami. I hope to 2352 02:11:14,880 --> 02:11:17,520 Speaker 1: God speaking of prayer, he's an ex governor of the 2353 02:11:17,520 --> 02:11:19,680 Speaker 1: state of Ohio and the whey the stars are currently aligned, 2354 02:11:19,720 --> 02:11:21,800 Speaker 1: he is going to walk away with it, don't count 2355 02:11:21,800 --> 02:11:24,640 Speaker 1: on it will be talking a lot between now and 2356 02:11:24,680 --> 02:11:28,680 Speaker 1: next year about that. One. He's Hindu. Do I care? 2357 02:11:29,320 --> 02:11:29,360 Speaker 3: No? 2358 02:11:30,760 --> 02:11:33,400 Speaker 1: You know why I don't care. One. The guy's brilliant too. 2359 02:11:33,440 --> 02:11:36,960 Speaker 1: He's got awesome ideas for governing that have nothing to 2360 02:11:37,080 --> 02:11:41,800 Speaker 1: do with religion. Three. Most fundamentally, he can't make me 2361 02:11:41,960 --> 02:11:45,800 Speaker 1: become Hindu or become a Hindu worshiper or Hinduism follower 2362 02:11:45,840 --> 02:11:48,520 Speaker 1: of Hinduism. He's not an ability to do that. He 2363 02:11:48,560 --> 02:11:51,400 Speaker 1: can't make me. He the government does not have control 2364 02:11:51,480 --> 02:11:54,600 Speaker 1: over your religious destiny. So that I pivot over to 2365 02:11:54,600 --> 02:11:59,120 Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom's preaching the teachings of Matthew Isaiah Lucan Proverbs 2366 02:12:00,120 --> 02:12:03,040 Speaker 1: to support his argument that the central of the core 2367 02:12:03,120 --> 02:12:06,280 Speaker 1: and central to what it government does is to align 2368 02:12:06,320 --> 02:12:09,320 Speaker 1: with God's will. Let me read the quote exactly. Feeding 2369 02:12:09,360 --> 02:12:11,880 Speaker 1: the poor is quote core and central to what it 2370 02:12:12,040 --> 02:12:15,720 Speaker 1: is to align with God's will. Yep, I'll give them 2371 02:12:15,720 --> 02:12:22,480 Speaker 1: a NodD on that God's will as fulfilled by those 2372 02:12:23,080 --> 02:12:28,280 Speaker 1: who are the Christian faith, not the government. Gavin, render 2373 02:12:28,360 --> 02:12:32,160 Speaker 1: unto Caesar what Caesar's do, but don't shoulder. Don't force 2374 02:12:32,160 --> 02:12:34,520 Speaker 1: Caesar to shoulder the responsibility of what you as a 2375 02:12:34,640 --> 02:12:37,520 Speaker 1: Christian person are supposed to be doing. That's care and 2376 02:12:37,560 --> 02:12:39,640 Speaker 1: feeding and helping those and attending to those that are 2377 02:12:39,640 --> 02:12:42,800 Speaker 1: truly in need. That's the way it's supposed to work. 2378 02:12:44,600 --> 02:12:46,879 Speaker 1: It's not a suggestion in the Old and New Testament. 2379 02:12:46,960 --> 02:12:49,480 Speaker 1: These guys need to stop the BS and Washington. They're 2380 02:12:49,480 --> 02:12:51,760 Speaker 1: sitting there in their prayer breakfast. Maybe they got an 2381 02:12:51,840 --> 02:12:54,520 Speaker 1: edited version of President Donald Trump's Bible and they edit 2382 02:12:54,600 --> 02:12:57,640 Speaker 1: out all of that, edited all of that out. Cruelty 2383 02:12:57,880 --> 02:13:02,560 Speaker 1: is the policy. Huh, well, I suppose that's what happens 2384 02:13:02,560 --> 02:13:05,680 Speaker 1: when you turn the keys over to Christian obligations and 2385 02:13:05,760 --> 02:13:09,680 Speaker 1: hand it to the government. The government, not being Christian, 2386 02:13:09,720 --> 02:13:12,040 Speaker 1: does not necessarily have to follow the proposition to the 2387 02:13:12,040 --> 02:13:18,680 Speaker 1: tenets of Christianity, nor is it allowed to. I know 2388 02:13:18,760 --> 02:13:21,280 Speaker 1: this situation is complicated and painful, but you know, from 2389 02:13:21,280 --> 02:13:24,480 Speaker 1: the people who demonize religion on a regular basis and 2390 02:13:24,520 --> 02:13:27,520 Speaker 1: call you an idiot for believing in a higher power, 2391 02:13:27,680 --> 02:13:30,000 Speaker 1: what do you believe in the flying spaghetti monster as well? 2392 02:13:32,760 --> 02:13:34,640 Speaker 1: Now going to use that to try to guilt you 2393 02:13:34,880 --> 02:13:37,560 Speaker 1: into opening the governor back up because they insist on 2394 02:13:38,120 --> 02:13:44,640 Speaker 1: supplements for Obamacare. Maybe if Obamacare had been designed better 2395 02:13:47,160 --> 02:13:50,240 Speaker 1: the premiums wouldn't be saidam high. It's the insurer of 2396 02:13:50,360 --> 02:13:52,760 Speaker 1: last resort for medicine. When you have all the people 2397 02:13:52,840 --> 02:13:55,520 Speaker 1: join one insurance product and all of them have come 2398 02:13:55,560 --> 02:13:58,680 Speaker 1: to the insurance product with pre existing conditions, you're going 2399 02:13:58,720 --> 02:14:02,560 Speaker 1: to have an overwhelmingly expensive system to support and prop up. 2400 02:14:02,760 --> 02:14:07,680 Speaker 1: That's exactly what Obamacare is. So maybe the right Christian 2401 02:14:07,680 --> 02:14:09,920 Speaker 1: thing to do would be tear Obamacare down and come 2402 02:14:10,000 --> 02:14:13,400 Speaker 1: up with something that actually works, that is affordable. Maybe 2403 02:14:13,400 --> 02:14:16,080 Speaker 1: you need to think the rethink the way America provides 2404 02:14:16,120 --> 02:14:20,200 Speaker 1: medical services. But in all cases, in all ways, I 2405 02:14:20,200 --> 02:14:23,800 Speaker 1: would argue, keep the damn government out of it, or 2406 02:14:24,000 --> 02:14:27,640 Speaker 1: it's going to end up being painful and problematic, complicated, 2407 02:14:27,920 --> 02:14:31,120 Speaker 1: and an epic failure. A fifty five fifty five care 2408 02:14:31,200 --> 02:14:33,280 Speaker 1: c detalk station The Big Picture with Jack Allen and 2409 02:14:33,320 --> 02:14:33,600 Speaker 1: Great
