1 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:14,000 Speaker 1: News Radio seven hundred WLW Mike Allen and Saturday Midday 2 00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:18,279 Speaker 1: on what looks to be a pretty good Saturday. Well, 3 00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:21,640 Speaker 1: we are in day fifteen of the Iran war, and 4 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 1: people are wondering what's taking so long. I mean, it's 5 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:29,560 Speaker 1: really incredible. We are so accustomed now as a society 6 00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:35,880 Speaker 1: to demand instant results on everything. So it's going about 7 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 1: as well as can be expected. I suppose gas prices 8 00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:42,839 Speaker 1: are going up. As of yesterday, the US average was 9 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:47,800 Speaker 1: three point fifty a gallon, opposed to back on February 10 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 1: twenty eighth three dollars and. 11 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 2: Four cents a gallon. And you know what, people just 12 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 2: need to suck that up. 13 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, you're going to pay a little bit more at 14 00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,800 Speaker 1: the pump, but it's a small price to pay, I 15 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 1: think for crushing these people and ultimately preventing them the 16 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 1: means to get a nuclear weapon. 17 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:09,480 Speaker 3: You know. 18 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:13,399 Speaker 1: JFK said, ask not what your country can do for you, 19 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:18,040 Speaker 1: but what you can do for your country. That's almost 20 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 1: a foreign language these days, So just chill out about 21 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 1: the gas prices. So far, unfortunately, thirteen Americans have been killed. 22 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,959 Speaker 1: I believe the number now is one hundred and forty. 23 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 1: Service members wounded. However, Iran's got it a little bit worse. 24 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 1: The estimates are anywhere from thirteen hundred to almost two 25 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: thousand estimated killed. Israel says four thousand Iranian troops and 26 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: commanders have been killed and more than fifty Iranian naval 27 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: vessels damaged or destroyed. I can't imagine they've got much 28 00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 1: of a navy left. Maybe a few rowboats around somewhere. 29 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 1: But again, I mean, it looks like it's going as 30 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: well as can be expected. Okay, I want to talk 31 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: about this recent terrorism incidents. On Thursday of this week, 32 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 1: just two days ago, we had two separate incidents. They 33 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,839 Speaker 1: don't seem to be aligned with each other, but they're 34 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:25,240 Speaker 1: still under investigation. The first one the shooting at Old 35 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 1: Dominion University in Virginia, where the person doing it yelled 36 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: out that nice little saying a la acbar, and it 37 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 1: was a I believe an ROTC professor that was slain 38 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,359 Speaker 1: in that one. And then the same day you had 39 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 1: the armed man he was fatally shot after he rammed 40 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:53,800 Speaker 1: his car into a synagogue in West Bloomfield, Michigan. It 41 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: looks like now and I heard this this morning, that 42 00:02:56,320 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: he may have shot himself. It doesn't matter. He's gone, 43 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 1: And boy, what a shame that is. So two on Thursday, 44 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 1: you add this to the list. Two more within a 45 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 1: two week period. The first of March Buford's backyard beer 46 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:19,799 Speaker 1: garden in downtown Austin, Texas, a shooting there. Three killed, 47 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 1: nineteen injured. The FBI is investigating it as a potential 48 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 1: act of terrorism. I think what would ice that is? 49 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 1: The dude that did the damage was wearing a sweatshirt 50 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 1: that read property of Allah with an Iranian flag on it. 51 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 1: So read into that whatever you want. And on March seventh, 52 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: the attempted bombing. Boy, I'll tell you what, people really 53 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: excuse the pun dodged a bullet on this one, the 54 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:52,120 Speaker 1: attempted bombing in New York City right in front of 55 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: Gracie Mansion where the communist mayor lives. So what's got 56 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: four acts of terrorism in two two weeks and there 57 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: will be more. You can thank Joe Biden for that. 58 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: And listen to this, listen to this about all the 59 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: incidents and the people walking around in this country that 60 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: we have no idea where they came from or how 61 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 1: well we know how they got in here. They snuck 62 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: in again thanks to Biden. Listen to this, Okay, this 63 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:28,479 Speaker 1: comes from the National counter Terrorism Center. The director, Joe Kent, 64 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 1: sometime back testified under oath before Congress that at least 65 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: eighteen thousand known or suspected terrorists entered or were released 66 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 1: into the United States during the Biden administration. Now, according 67 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 1: to mister Kent's testimony, roughly two thousand of these individuals 68 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: are Afghan nationals who entered following the botched twenty twenty 69 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: one withdrawal from Afghanistan. Boy, you remember that we were 70 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: in embarrassed on the world stage. Whistleblowers and I remember this. 71 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:09,599 Speaker 1: Whistleblowers alleged that they were ordered to rush screenings and 72 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:13,919 Speaker 1: bypass thorough vetting to speed up entries. I remember that 73 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 1: during that same period, the National counter Terrorism Center reportedly 74 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 1: added about thirty five thousand NARCO terrorists to the federal 75 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: terrorist watch list, and officials of the NCTC stated that 76 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 1: they helped prevent additional people coming in just by kind 77 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: of ramping up the procedure that they used to vet 78 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: these people. Finally, on that, intelligence officials, including Director of 79 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: National Intelligence Tulsey Gabbert, have characterized and testified that these 80 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: individuals that Joe Biden led into our country are a 81 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 1: direct threat to the American. 82 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,599 Speaker 2: People, these known or suspected terrorists. 83 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 1: So again a round of applause for President Joe Biden, who, 84 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,039 Speaker 1: in my humble opinion, and I'm not kidding, he will 85 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 1: go down as the worst, most harmful, damaging president this 86 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:17,839 Speaker 1: country has ever had. 87 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 2: You have all these. 88 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: People walking around in our country because that boob let 89 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,839 Speaker 1: anyone and everyone in and we're going to be paying 90 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: in blood for years for that. So, okay, we got 91 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:37,600 Speaker 1: four incidents in a week two week period. Let's take 92 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,840 Speaker 1: a look at the perpetrators of these attacks. 93 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:42,600 Speaker 2: We'll do them by the numbers. 94 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 1: Number one, the synagogue incident, the alleged perpetrator there, there's 95 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 1: no alleged the perpetrator there is, i'man Mohammed Ghazali and 96 00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: he's dead. He was burned in his vehicle and it 97 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 1: looks like now it was a self inflicted gunshot wound. 98 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 1: Who cares, he's gone. Number two the Old Dominion College incident. 99 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 1: At the alleged perpetrator there a dude named Mohammed Baylor Jala, 100 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: and unfortunately for him, he was stabbed to death by 101 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: some brave r O t C students. Okay Buford's beer 102 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 1: garden incident in Austin, uh The perpetrator there Nagami Diagmi, 103 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: who hails from Senegal. And finally, the attempted bombing in 104 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: New York City at Gracie Mansion where the mayor lives. 105 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: There were two perps there. One his name Emir Balat, 106 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: number two Ibraham Kayuma. Now let me ask you a question. 107 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: Do you notice any similarities there? Does anything jump out 108 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 1: at you? You know, do you see any Jimmy Jones 109 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: or Johnny Smithson there? But hey, we're not even allowed 110 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: to think about that, are we, I mean much less 111 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: talk about it? 112 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 3: You know? 113 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 2: Is that Islamophobic that I say that? Maybe it is. 114 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 2: I don't care. 115 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: But we don't have to like everyone. We don't have 116 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 1: to let everyone into our country. Do you think these 117 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 1: people like us? We don't have to like everyone. And 118 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: you know, when an atrocity against Jewish people happens, And 119 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,960 Speaker 1: I've asked this, I think since this show's been on, 120 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 1: where is the outcry of sympathy from Muslims? 121 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 2: I've never heard it ever? Maybe you have, I haven't. 122 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 1: And there are so many unanswered questions on all four 123 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 1: of them, these incidents from the past couple of weeks. 124 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:06,559 Speaker 1: Here's one, and this is probably the biggest one. Why 125 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 1: was Mohammed Jali the person that killed the ROTWOC officer? 126 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 1: Why was he out of federal prison number one and 127 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: number two? And maybe even more importantly, why was he 128 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: even in our country at all? 129 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 4: Now? 130 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 1: This guy served as a specialist in the Virginia National 131 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 1: Guard from two thousand and nine to twenty fifteen. He 132 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 1: reportedly quit after being radicalized by online lectures from al 133 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:42,840 Speaker 1: Qaeda leader Anwar al Milwaukee. In early twenty sixteen, he 134 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 1: met with ISIS members during a trip to Africa. Upon returning, 135 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:51,839 Speaker 1: he was introduced by an overseas ISIS member to an 136 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:56,359 Speaker 1: individual this is great who was actually an FBI confidential 137 00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 1: source and during these meetings the dormant. During the meetings 138 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 1: with the informant, July praised previous terror attacks, specifically such 139 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 1: as the two thousand and nine Fort Hood shooting, and 140 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 1: stated that he had thought about conducting similar attacks quote 141 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 1: all the time close quote. He even attempted to donate 142 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 1: five hundred dollars to ISIS and unsuccessfully tried to buy 143 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: firearms in North Carolina and Virginia. I'll ask it again, 144 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 1: why in God's name after all of this, is this 145 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 1: person permitted to stay in our country. Now you'll get 146 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 1: people say, well, he was a naturalized citizen. There's nothing 147 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:44,079 Speaker 1: you can do about that. Yeah, there is. There's a process. 148 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:48,199 Speaker 1: It's difficult, it's hard, but there is. Kick him out 149 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 1: of our country. Why would he be here after what 150 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:55,839 Speaker 1: he was convicted of, what he pled to Just. 151 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 2: It amazes me. 152 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 1: So, you got four incidents, terrorist incidents in a two 153 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 1: week span, and like I said before, God knows how 154 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:11,959 Speaker 1: many other Islamic terrorists are walking around in this country 155 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: courtesy of the Biden administration. We have no idea who 156 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:20,679 Speaker 1: is in here, no idea at all. 157 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 2: So, I mean, given all. 158 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:26,560 Speaker 1: Of this, wouldn't you think that we would be hyper 159 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 1: aware and our intelligence agencies would be hyper aware of 160 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 1: what's going on in this country? 161 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,199 Speaker 2: I mean, not only that we're in the middle of 162 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 2: a war, but. 163 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:42,719 Speaker 1: And the Department of Homeland Security is primarily folks. They 164 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:46,359 Speaker 1: do a lot of things, but primarily focus on protecting 165 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:51,679 Speaker 1: the nation from threats, including threats of terrorism and cyber security. 166 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 1: And here's the deal, And I mean this. I'm prone 167 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 1: to sometimes exaggerating, I ain't exaggerating here. 168 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:02,479 Speaker 2: In what may be. 169 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 1: The most irresponsible and reckless act in this country's history. 170 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 1: The Democrats in Congress are not fully funding the Department 171 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 1: of Homeland Security. Why you ask, because they don't like 172 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: the way ICE does their job. It is truly stunning. 173 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 1: I mean, once again, we see it. The hell with you, 174 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 1: American citizens. We're going to take care of our beloved 175 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 1: illegal aliens, people that trespassed into this country. We don't 176 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 1: care about you. We don't care if your daughters get raped. 177 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 1: We don't care if an illegal alien who can't even 178 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 1: read or speak English gets in a big old semi 179 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,200 Speaker 1: tractor trailer and plows your son or daughter over. 180 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 2: We don't care about that. We don't care. 181 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:55,960 Speaker 1: We're going to take care of our illegal immigrants. I mean, 182 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: do you get the feeling that the Democrats are moted 183 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 1: by a desire, motivated by a desire not to give 184 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 1: Trump a win at any cost, even it means, even 185 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:11,359 Speaker 1: if it means. 186 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 2: A loss for Americans. I'll tell you what. 187 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 1: That's sure the way I feel anyway, that's what I think. 188 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 1: I want to know what you think. Seven four nine, 189 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 1: seven thousand, one, eight hundred.

I saw this yesterday. Okay, this 196 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,960 Speaker 1: is from Fox News. I'm just gonna read a little 197 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 1: bit of it to you. The George Soros backed da 198 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 1: in Norfolk, Virginia, the prosecutor where Thursday's mass shooting at 199 00:13:54,920 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 1: Old Dominion University took place, said community leaders. Community members 200 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 1: looking to place blame on the shooting should direct it 201 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 1: towards not the terrorists that did it, but directed towards 202 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 1: pro gun lawmakers and judges. Unbelievable, Commonwealth Attorney, are you ready? 203 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: Ramen Fatah hm. Ramen Fetah was pressed by Fox News 204 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 1: to elaborate on his comments during the press conference earlier, 205 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 1: prompting him to stand by his comments. I absolutely stand 206 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 1: by what I said. It is the truth, no matter 207 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 1: how much the gun lobby wants to deny it, fate said. 208 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: When he asked if he Featee said when asked if 209 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: he stood by his comments despite Thursday's mass shooter in 210 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: Virginia having a public record of supporting Islamic terrorism. Come on, now, 211 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 1: that doesn't matter at all. That doesn't matter. It's all 212 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: about the gun. Unbelievable, all right. This clown goes on 213 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 1: to say, mister Fatai Fatah fat e hi, read into 214 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 1: it whatever you want, no matter the ideology of an attacker, 215 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 1: that attacker is more dangerous with a gun than without one. 216 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 2: That's what he said. Okay, just a couple things here. 217 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 1: This is a prosecutor, This is a man that is 218 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 1: supposed to prosecute crime, totally ignoring the fact that this 219 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: guy was a radical Islamic terrorist. It's that's not why 220 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 1: he killed that guy. It's because of the gun. 221 00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 2: You know. Here's the thing, and I'll shut up and 222 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 2: get to the calls. 223 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 4: Here. 224 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 2: Here's the thing. All these people. 225 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 1: That are against the Second Amendment want to blame the 226 00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 1: gun for everything, not the person. You know why, because 227 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 1: it's just easier to blame an inanimate object. You know 228 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: what they ought to do and if they had any stones, 229 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 1: they would do it. If you hate the situation with 230 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 1: guns in his country, Number one, you can blame King 231 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 1: George for the way he treated the colonists. They felt 232 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 1: they needed to be armed, and they were, and that 233 00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 1: has stayed with us. But if you want to really 234 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 1: want to do that, why don't you do this instead 235 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 1: of all this picking around and everything else. Why don't 236 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: you repeal the Second Amendment? There is a process for 237 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 1: doing that. Why don't you do that? We did it 238 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 1: with the Eighteenth Amendment, which established prohibition. We did it 239 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 1: on a number of other things. And I asked that 240 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: a kind of I guess academically, because they're not going 241 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 1: to do that. Number one, it's too much work. Number two, 242 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 1: it would never pass. But anyway, I don't know. I 243 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 1: just thought you'd be interested in that. It's not the 244 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:08,199 Speaker 1: Islamic terrorist that is to blame for this shooting, this killing. 245 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 1: It is the gun that is to blame, according to 246 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 1: this quote prosecutor unquote. Anyway, let's get to the calls. 247 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 1: Let's start with Roger in Columbus. Hey, Roger, how you doing. 248 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:28,880 Speaker 5: Oh, Mike, I'm doing well. So much to say, I'll 249 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 5: try to keep it short. 250 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,199 Speaker 4: I think the vast majority of your listeners are in 251 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 4: agreement with you, and much of what you've said. 252 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:40,440 Speaker 5: I think we're at a point now as individuals what. 253 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 4: Do we do? And I've got a couple suggestions. Sure One, 254 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:49,360 Speaker 4: those people of faith pray that our nation is protected, 255 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 4: that our rights are protected. 256 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:52,400 Speaker 2: Absolutely. 257 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 4: Two, Become vigilantly aware of things, be on the lookout, 258 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:02,160 Speaker 4: be aware of your surroundings, of what is going on. 259 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 6: Now. 260 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 5: I don't like the idea of all this awareness and 261 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 5: they call the police on your neighbor, but you know what. 262 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 4: I mean, I sure do be aware, be aware. 263 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,920 Speaker 5: And then the third thing is, you know I've been 264 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 5: I was concealed carry, and now there's no concealed carry, 265 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,719 Speaker 5: and I've got a fair amount of you know, small 266 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,880 Speaker 5: handguns that sit in my closet, and I don't I'm 267 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 5: going to start caring more, you know, I'm saying, I'm 268 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 5: going to start caring more to protect not only myself 269 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 5: but others that are around me in a proper way. 270 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:40,119 Speaker 5: I'm pretty convinced that the politicians on both sides of 271 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,159 Speaker 5: the of the aisle don't really want to do a 272 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 5: whole lot. So I just think those three things implore 273 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:51,160 Speaker 5: the Lord to protect us. Have an awareness of your 274 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 5: surroundings at all times. You don't need to be fear 275 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 5: for panicky, but you're just aware of things to protect 276 00:18:58,240 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 5: yourself and your family. 277 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:03,400 Speaker 4: And two, I as a law abiding sixty six year 278 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 4: old citizen of America, I'm going to carry more. You know, 279 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 4: I've got kids that are in their thirties, i have 280 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 4: grandkids that are all in and under and full of them. 281 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 4: If we do not come to an understanding of Islam, 282 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 4: it is a political force. It is not a religious force. 283 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 4: I don't know. 284 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 2: I don't know that I would agree with you on that. 285 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 4: Roger, Well, both scholars will tell you it is a 286 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 4: political movement because they want to take over. I think 287 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 4: most academics would tell you it's a religion, but it 288 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:42,600 Speaker 4: is based on a political concept. But needless to say 289 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 4: whether it's a religion or not. They it does not 290 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 4: get along with democracy, It doesn't get along with a republic. 291 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 4: It fights at it always. And then my final comment 292 00:19:55,640 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 4: would be, ladies of the wile of America. I don't 293 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 4: mean to sound too patriotic. You need to understand what 294 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 4: happens to your rights under an Islamic regime. You just 295 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:12,920 Speaker 4: need to understand it. And to our homosexual brothers and 296 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,880 Speaker 4: sisters out there. They need to understand what goes on 297 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 4: in these really sims. And I think I just think 298 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 4: we've we've got to understand. We've got problems coming if 299 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 4: we do not personally take some action, because I'm not 300 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 4: sure our government is willing to take action. 301 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 1: Thanks all right, Roger, Thank you boy. I tell you 302 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 1: what what a great call that was. That's a great 303 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:38,919 Speaker 1: call to lead off with. Thank you for that. I 304 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 1: agree with just about everything you said, although you know 305 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:45,439 Speaker 1: you can define Islam whatever way you want. I remember 306 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 1: one time when I heard some Muslim cleric years ago 307 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: calling Judaism a gutter religion. I can think of a 308 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 1: gutter religion, but it's not Judaism, if you know what 309 00:20:59,160 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 1: I mean. 310 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,359 Speaker 2: These people, I'll say it again. 311 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 1: Have you ever heard any of them, any of them 312 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: expressed sympathy with the Jewish community when these horrible acts 313 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 1: of anti Semitism happened. 314 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:16,800 Speaker 2: I haven't. 315 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 1: That's not to say it hasn't happened, but I sure 316 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,959 Speaker 1: haven't heard it. And why do we have to molly 317 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 1: coddle these people. We don't have to like everyone, we 318 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 1: don't have to accept everyone. These people hate us, They 319 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: want to kill us, they want to destroy our country. 320 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 2: It's high time. 321 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:44,119 Speaker 1: As he just said, Roger, I guess I'm saying a 322 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 1: little bit more harshly. 323 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,680 Speaker 2: But one of the things I took from what. 324 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:52,680 Speaker 1: He said was these people, you know, they're not about 325 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:56,119 Speaker 1: wanting to be our friends. And that's not what he said, 326 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 1: but I think that was the import of it. We 327 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 1: got to pull our heads out of our you know, 328 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 1: what's about these people? And why that guy was in 329 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 1: this country after serving that sentence, I'd still like to 330 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: know why he was out early. And let me say 331 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:16,160 Speaker 1: this in fairness, a little bit early. He got eleven years, 332 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: he got credit for time served before you know, his 333 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:22,360 Speaker 1: case was adjudicated, which has to happen. I mean, judges 334 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 1: have to do that. It happens every day. And also 335 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 1: there is some good time in the federal system as 336 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:30,439 Speaker 1: well as the state system. 337 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:32,959 Speaker 2: So he was let out a little early. 338 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:37,159 Speaker 1: I guess my question would be, and I heard yesterday 339 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 1: that the judge in this case was either a HW. 340 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 1: Bush or George W. Bush appointee. But you know what, 341 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 1: you appoint these judges and they're gonna do what. 342 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:50,919 Speaker 2: They're gonna do. But what and the prosecutor was asking 343 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:51,879 Speaker 2: for twenty years. 344 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:55,679 Speaker 1: I mean, this guy, with what he did and what 345 00:22:55,880 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 1: he said, why would he not get the matter some sentence? 346 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,679 Speaker 1: And in federal court, you know, you got to go 347 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 1: through all these gyrations with the guidelines. But if a 348 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 1: judge wants to give the max, he can do it. 349 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 1: So I don't know, you guys, you don't want to 350 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 1: hear me. You want to hear the callers as do I. Hey, 351 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:20,159 Speaker 1: let's talk to Barry in Miamisburg. 352 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 4: Hey, Barry, how's it going today? Sir? 353 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 2: I'm gonna have a heart attack, but I'm okay. 354 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 7: Just count to ten. My comment is slightly different. It's 355 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 7: for all the people who have said, from the pope 356 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 7: down that we should have negotiated more or negotiated longer. 357 00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:47,120 Speaker 7: Do you remember when Jimmy Carter was president? Oh yeah, 358 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 7: and they took hostages for four hundred and forty four days. 359 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:52,440 Speaker 2: I remember it distinctly. 360 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 7: We have been negotiating with Iran since then for decades 361 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 7: and decades. All negotiations get is more Muslim funded terrorism. 362 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 2: Absolutely with these people. 363 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 7: When you have presidents giving them planeloads of cash in 364 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 7: the middle of the night, yep. 365 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,919 Speaker 1: Can you say, Barack Obama, you are so right, And 366 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 1: you know what it was. 367 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:20,119 Speaker 2: Kick the can was kicked. 368 00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 1: Down the road from Jimmy Carter all the way down 369 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,920 Speaker 1: to Donald Trump. And there's a president in that mix, 370 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:29,679 Speaker 1: Ronald Reagan, who I absolutely love and feel that he 371 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 1: was one of at least the top three presidents in 372 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 1: our history. But he did too Democrat Republican presidents, kick 373 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 1: the can down the road. Finally, Trump says, hey, these 374 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 1: people are getting close to being able to build a 375 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 1: nuclear device. I gotta take action along with our ally Israel. 376 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:49,440 Speaker 1: And he did. 377 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 6: And you can't. 378 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,880 Speaker 2: Negotiate with these people. I mean, look it up. 379 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:58,680 Speaker 1: Their culture is one that condones lying. You can't trust them, 380 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:01,399 Speaker 1: You just can't. The only thing you can do is 381 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:05,439 Speaker 1: what we are doing now. And I don't downplay the 382 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:08,679 Speaker 1: seriesness of it, but it had to happen, and Donald 383 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 1: Trump had the stones. 384 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 2: If you will to do it, he had to do it. 385 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:15,919 Speaker 4: Can I make the follow up? 386 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 2: Absolutely? 387 00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:20,880 Speaker 7: There are some people out there who claim that the 388 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:26,160 Speaker 7: money that Obama and Biden gave Iran was in fact 389 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 7: Iran's money. That wasn't a lot fun for something stupid 390 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 7: like that. Yeah, I've had I'll concede the fact that 391 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:39,199 Speaker 7: some of it might have been, but it wasn't a 392 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 7: bank where it wasn't being used to kill people. When 393 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 7: you take it out of the bank and you give 394 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:48,440 Speaker 7: it to the bad guys so that they can arm. 395 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 4: Terrorists, you're part of the problem. 396 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 1: Yep, you're absolutely right, and you tell me, and I 397 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:55,720 Speaker 1: know you're right about what you're saying. 398 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 2: There was a way. I'm sure. 399 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,440 Speaker 1: I can't say what it is, but I'm sure there 400 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,199 Speaker 1: would have been a way around that. I mean, how 401 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:06,640 Speaker 1: about okay, well, what about reparations for the hostages that 402 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 1: you all kept in crappy conditions for all that time. Look, 403 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 1: if we don't know by now you cannot negotiate with 404 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: these people, then we're stupider than anyone as a country 405 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 1: has ever thought. You can't do it. You know, the 406 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: war is on now. Nobody's happy about it. I got 407 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 1: a daughter in the army. I mean, millions of other 408 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 1: people have service members in the army. I mean people 409 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,880 Speaker 1: related to them. I don't minimize it, but it had 410 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: to be done anyway. That's what I think. 411 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:43,760 Speaker 7: Well, good luck to everybody who is in the. 412 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 4: Military, and I hope they come home. 413 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 7: Thank you, Barry, you too, Thank you. 414 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 2: Thank you. 415 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 1: Good call is always with Barry.

And we've discussed this many many days ago. 422 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 6: We have a lot of careseels in this country. People 423 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 6: have to be prepared because law enforcement or federal agencies, 424 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 6: they don't have the manpower to control it. 425 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 1: Especially when the Democrats don't want to fully fund DHS. 426 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 6: You're right, and you asked me predictions for this year. 427 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 6: It's going to be a hot summer when you have 428 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:43,680 Speaker 6: nine to eleven coming up, the twenty fifth anniversary, YEP 429 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 6: World Cup, summer events, two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of 430 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 6: our country, plus the Olympics in LA. These people are 431 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:56,400 Speaker 6: looking for opportunities. People need to be prepared. 432 00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 1: I don't doubt that a bit, Bobby, And you're right 433 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 1: about it. I mean with the anniversary of nine to 434 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:04,879 Speaker 1: eleven and everything else going on. I mean, look, we 435 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 1: had two and one day this week. We've had four 436 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:13,119 Speaker 1: in the last two weeks, all radical Islamic terrorists, and 437 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:15,120 Speaker 1: you don't think we're going to see more of that. 438 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,360 Speaker 2: You're absolutely right, and people do need to be vigilant. 439 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 6: I see it as a prelude, my friend. When they 440 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 6: start popping off IEDs, there's only there's only so many 441 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 6: people that can respond to it. Yep, people need to 442 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 6: be prepared because just like when nine to eleven happened, 443 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 6: the two things they did right off the bed, they 444 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 6: shut down airspace and they took all ammunition at their 445 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 6: bills off the shelves. 446 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 1: You're right about that, You're right about that.

Like I said, 450 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 1: two in one day. I don't think it doesn't seem 451 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:03,480 Speaker 1: like they were coordinated for within a week, all radical 452 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 1: Islamic terrorrists. 453 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 2: You know, are we allowed to say that? 454 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 1: Remember when I think it was Hillary Clinton, she didn't 455 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 1: want to call him that, she wanted to say something else. 456 00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 1: You know, come on, we got to get real in 457 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: this country and just let me go over this again 458 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 1: talking about who is in this country again in late 459 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five and early twenty six. Twenty twenty six, 460 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 1: the National counter Terrorism Center NCTC, a guy named Joke 461 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 1: can't testify before Congress that are you ready? At least 462 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 1: eighteen thousand known or suspected terrorists entered or released into 463 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 1: the United States during the Biden administration, eighteen thousand among 464 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 1: them two thousand Afghan nationals who entered without being proper 465 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 1: vetted because I guess they ran out of time or 466 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 1: ran out. 467 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 2: Of people to do it. That's no excuse. 468 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, I don't like to be a 469 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 1: Debbie downer or overly scare people, but I would be 470 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 1: shocked if we don't see more, and unfortunately probably a 471 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 1: lot more.

The guy, the guy that the 476 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 1: Brave Rotzi students stabbed to death. 477 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 2: You know, he didn't kill any way, I'm sorry, I 478 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 2: take that back.

As you mentioned, he was in Ohio to 520 00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 8: talk about his prescription drugs from r which is supposed 521 00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:06,480 Speaker 8: to give people some pretty decent discounts on prescription drugs. 522 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 8: I haven't personally visited yet, but I'm going to check 523 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 8: it out. So anyhow, in this particular situation, boy, tell 524 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 8: you what, the weather was not favorable. It was raining 525 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 8: pretty badly, but it did not deter this crowd. Whatsoever. 526 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 8: People were lined up for a really long time, and 527 00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 8: I think that's part of the reason why the unusual 528 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 8: event happened. Some of the older people in the crowd, 529 00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 8: God bless their hearts, they were out on the rain 530 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 8: all day, standing on their feet, maybe not used to 531 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 8: doing that, for hours and hours. They get inside and 532 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 8: it's kind of muggy, and it wasn't super hot, and 533 00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 8: never it was somewhat hot because it's like a warehouse. 534 00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:45,320 Speaker 8: It's called Versed Logistics is the place where the rally 535 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 8: was held. 536 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 6: It had a. 537 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 8: Capacity of about two thousand people in that place was filled, 538 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 8: and I'm going to tell you there were people. Unfortunately, 539 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 8: One oldered lady fainted in the bleachers directly behind Trump, 540 00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 8: and doctor Oz went and helped her. And then I'm 541 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:05,560 Speaker 8: in front of Trump and this person, a person I 542 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:09,719 Speaker 8: had literally just spoken to, h started to kind of 543 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 8: faint in front of me as well, an older gentleman, 544 00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:16,319 Speaker 8: nice guy that I had spoken to. And so here 545 00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 8: I am. I've got a fence between me and him, 546 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 8: and I'm trying to kind of help him, and so 547 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 8: are other people. And then doctor Oz makes his way 548 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:26,320 Speaker 8: from after I scream others I and others scream atic 549 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 8: and we're trying to do a hand to help the 550 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:30,520 Speaker 8: guy get his feed up. You know, I did take sirs, 551 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:32,839 Speaker 8: You're supposed to get the person's feed up. So it's 552 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:34,839 Speaker 8: just a little bit of drama. But it turned out okay. 553 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 8: The guy ended up leaving on his own power. The 554 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 8: lady I'm not sure about because I couldn't see where 555 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:42,880 Speaker 8: I was. But it was just interesting to have doctor 556 00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 8: oz right there in front of me, and this was 557 00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:47,959 Speaker 8: so intent taking care of this guy, and I felt 558 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 8: really guilty. I tried to take I took some pictures, 559 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,520 Speaker 8: but just so you know, I'm not that person who 560 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:55,360 Speaker 8: cares more about the picture than the person. I helped 561 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,839 Speaker 8: the guy first, by God, and so I did take 562 00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,319 Speaker 8: a few pictures of doctor his attending to the man, 563 00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:04,240 Speaker 8: and but I was respectful of the man's privacy. 564 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:05,320 Speaker 4: I got the man's back. 565 00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:07,560 Speaker 8: Of his head, so, you know, just doctor Oza's face 566 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 8: stop anyway, So that there was that, and so the 567 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 8: main purpose of the rally, it seemed to me, was 568 00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 8: really to kind of, you know, rub it in the 569 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:20,719 Speaker 8: face of Thomas Mathews. Yeah, Trump was there too, very 570 00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 8: strongly again give his support to the opponent of Representative 571 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:30,880 Speaker 8: Thomas Matthew, which is a former Navy seal, farmer and businessman. 572 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 8: His name is ed Gal Ryan. And the biggest obstacle, 573 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,480 Speaker 8: it seems to me that he has to overcome, is 574 00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,440 Speaker 8: literally name recognition, because that name's not. 575 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:46,120 Speaker 2: Well known, right right, right right? I've never heard. 576 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:49,840 Speaker 8: Yeah, So that was the overview there. But apparently it 577 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 8: was interesting. Gal Ryan got up there and gave a 578 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:57,360 Speaker 8: quick overview of how he came to run. Trump somemoned 579 00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:01,799 Speaker 8: him he has been on steal Team Sixtharently this guy 580 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 8: at Gal Ryan and he summoned, uh, this guy to 581 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:08,720 Speaker 8: the White House against in October and he didn't know why, 582 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:10,960 Speaker 8: but I guess when the president calls, you show up. 583 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:16,400 Speaker 8: And he just said that Trump said, look, we need 584 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 8: we need you to serve. You served your country before, 585 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:22,160 Speaker 8: we need you to serve now, uh, to run against Matthew. 586 00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:27,000 Speaker 8: And now, if anybody who's been following anything at all political, 587 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,160 Speaker 8: you know that Matthew whose district is right across the 588 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 8: Ohio River. Literally it's the northern Kentucky area right across 589 00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,920 Speaker 8: the river. Uh, that he has been it's you know, 590 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 8: at odds with Trump over a bunch of things. But 591 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,879 Speaker 8: he also he's been consistent, it seems, on one thing, 592 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 8: and that would be he is against increasing the deficit 593 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:50,120 Speaker 8: and wants to keep a tight budget, which most people 594 00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 8: would be for, right, But the President has not been 595 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 8: happy with him. He caught him a disaster. I mean, 596 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:05,480 Speaker 8: so he had some strong words against According. 597 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 1: To your story, I'm going to quote here, Trump called 598 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:11,680 Speaker 1: him quote the worst Republican congressman in the long and 599 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:14,839 Speaker 1: fabled history of the US Congress. You know, Trump's kind 600 00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 1: of prone to understatements sometimes, but yeah. 601 00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 8: And then yeah, that's how he is, right. So yeah, 602 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 8: that that was It was definitely a I'm in your faith, 603 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:32,439 Speaker 8: I'm hearing your district move by Trump and gall Ryan gave. 604 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:34,919 Speaker 8: Like I said, he spoke to the crowd a couple 605 00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 8: of times, once when the President was up there with him, 606 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:40,839 Speaker 8: and once uh, with by himself, and the crowd did 607 00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 8: seem to respond, you know, with loud cheers. They had 608 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:49,400 Speaker 8: signs for the guy. Uh So they kind of seemed 609 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:51,640 Speaker 8: to be going with that program to. 610 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 2: To back gall Right. 611 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:57,040 Speaker 8: However, as I said, not only the name recognition, you know, 612 00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:59,759 Speaker 8: problem that gall Right has to overcome. But you have 613 00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:07,440 Speaker 8: to remember Massey's district is in between two very Democrat strongholds, 614 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:12,520 Speaker 8: Cincinnati and then also Louisville, and because of that, there 615 00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:15,719 Speaker 8: are a lot of independent thinking people kind of like 616 00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:18,080 Speaker 8: Massey is. He's kind of a maverick who's kind of 617 00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:21,719 Speaker 8: an independent thinker, and so he appeals to people like that. 618 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,280 Speaker 8: So he does seem to have He's been in office 619 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 8: since I believe twenty twelve, and so he does seem 620 00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:30,319 Speaker 8: to have, you know, pretty good backing. But then again, 621 00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:32,759 Speaker 8: there may be people who are disenchanted with him. I 622 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,239 Speaker 8: don't really have a vibe on that just yet. That 623 00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 8: it's become one of the most closely watched races this 624 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:41,920 Speaker 8: primary election cycle. In the Kentucky primary is going to 625 00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:44,480 Speaker 8: be May the nineteenth, so a lot of people will 626 00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 8: be watching to see whether Trump's endorsement power is able 627 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:54,440 Speaker 8: to uplift this relatively unknown fellow, mister Gowran or not. 628 00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:58,080 Speaker 1: It's gonna be interesting to see. If there are not 629 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:01,440 Speaker 1: any polls out yet, there will be soon. And you know, 630 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:05,800 Speaker 1: I do think that that mister Gowran's got an uphill battle. 631 00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:08,400 Speaker 1: But when you get an endorsement from the President of 632 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 1: the United States, that's pretty darn powerful. So and you 633 00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:14,359 Speaker 1: know what Thomas Massey is you pointed out janis, he's 634 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,400 Speaker 1: got a big following and he is independent, and you know, 635 00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:19,239 Speaker 1: I think he got to respect him for that. But 636 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:21,719 Speaker 1: I guess we'll see what happens. Hey, I wanted to 637 00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:24,479 Speaker 1: ask you something too about a story that you wrote. 638 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:29,600 Speaker 2: I guess it was last week. Extremely important. 639 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:35,839 Speaker 1: The the stories entitled well, I don't have it right 640 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:37,319 Speaker 1: in front of me here. Oh yeah, here it is, 641 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:42,320 Speaker 1: excuse me, under federal pressure, more gender clinics halt procedures 642 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:45,880 Speaker 1: on minors. It looks like that whole situation and I 643 00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:48,320 Speaker 1: don't expect you to comment on it with your opinion, 644 00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 1: but looks like that old situation is going the right 645 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:55,399 Speaker 1: way and a lot of clinics are pulling out of this, 646 00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:59,879 Speaker 1: in my opinion, horrific procedure on minors. Can you kind 647 00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:02,279 Speaker 1: of tell us about your story on that, because in 648 00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:04,040 Speaker 1: my opinion, I think opinion. 649 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:05,840 Speaker 2: Of a lot of others, it's very important. 650 00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:11,440 Speaker 8: Well, these clinics that have performed the transgender type medical 651 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:16,840 Speaker 8: procedures on minors, and we're talking about puberty blocking medications 652 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:22,640 Speaker 8: as well as hormones and in some cases surgeries. These 653 00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:28,000 Speaker 8: clinics are under increasing political and funding pressure to stop 654 00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:31,880 Speaker 8: doing these services. The federal government has taken a bunch 655 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 8: of steps to try to put that pressure on. And 656 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:39,279 Speaker 8: you know, there's also in the legal landscape. There was 657 00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:44,040 Speaker 8: a big lawsuit that was pretty earth shattering just happened 658 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:47,880 Speaker 8: at the end of January, where in of all places, 659 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:53,080 Speaker 8: New York City, there was a two million dollar verdict 660 00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:57,960 Speaker 8: issued against the malpractice case against the doctors. And I 661 00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:02,759 Speaker 8: believe it's psychologists, psychiatrists, mental health professional by a young 662 00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:07,120 Speaker 8: person who says, you know, hey, I quote unquote identified 663 00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:10,480 Speaker 8: as transgender, and you know, they went ahead and remove 664 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:12,960 Speaker 8: both of this young lady's brass that I think she 665 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:17,560 Speaker 8: was fifteen or sixteen, and we heard these sad stories 666 00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:21,239 Speaker 8: where later then they regret it, and you know, once 667 00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:23,880 Speaker 8: it's done, and then once these hormones are in the body, 668 00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:26,960 Speaker 8: a lot of the effects are irreversible. That's one of 669 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 8: the biggest misconceptions I've run across in the general public 670 00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:32,839 Speaker 8: when I've written about this, and that is people think, oh, well, 671 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:36,000 Speaker 8: if they change their minds, they can just undo it. 672 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:39,640 Speaker 8: It's kind of some of these effects are not reversible. 673 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:42,000 Speaker 8: Once you take to stosterode and I hate to say that. 674 00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:46,000 Speaker 8: You start growing a beard cuting, you have to have painful, painful, 675 00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:49,000 Speaker 8: over and over thousands of dollars of electrolitis. You're trying 676 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:52,120 Speaker 8: to get that to stop. A lot of things change, 677 00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 8: the bone density is damaged. There's a lot of unknowns 678 00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:59,239 Speaker 8: about what the long term effects are in terms of 679 00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:00,360 Speaker 8: internal organs. 680 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:02,439 Speaker 4: It's just a lot. 681 00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:05,840 Speaker 8: So that's these clinics are starting to close and or 682 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:11,200 Speaker 8: curtailed services. However, and there's a big However, the uh 683 00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:16,600 Speaker 8: people I talked to a whistle blower surgeon who you 684 00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:20,080 Speaker 8: know can He worked for a hospital in Texas that 685 00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:22,920 Speaker 8: said it was stopping the procedures. And he came out 686 00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 8: and alleged, Nope, they're doing it even though they said 687 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:30,160 Speaker 8: they stopped. And uh, then he he got prosecuted under 688 00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 8: the Vibe administration, almost went to prison, but then uh 689 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:36,440 Speaker 8: it turned out you know that he didn't have to 690 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 8: The charges I believe were just dropped. And then we yeah, 691 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:45,120 Speaker 8: then we had another guy I interviewed. Actually this person's 692 00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:49,080 Speaker 8: a female but quote unquote transitioned into a guy. So 693 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:51,120 Speaker 8: they both these people I talked to said they think 694 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 8: that the the people who are into the transgender transformation, 695 00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:59,279 Speaker 8: so to speak, will push this behind the scenes, that 696 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:02,959 Speaker 8: there's ways to do this online there it can become 697 00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:07,040 Speaker 8: of like a black market situation. Maybe. So this may 698 00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:11,320 Speaker 8: not be the end of the transgender transitions for miners 699 00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:13,799 Speaker 8: as much as a lot of Americans. It seems to 700 00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:16,960 Speaker 8: have like a widespread support that even people who think 701 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,520 Speaker 8: this is okay for adults, they do not think it's 702 00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:20,360 Speaker 8: okay for children. 703 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:22,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think that's where you draw the line, 704 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 1: and you point out your story the battle is far 705 00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:28,920 Speaker 1: from over, and these people they don't give up easily. 706 00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:32,799 Speaker 1: You also, in your story, you quote a fellow by 707 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:36,840 Speaker 1: the name of Well, I don't mean to be Scott NuGen, 708 00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:41,279 Speaker 1: I guess a female who regrets undergoing the masculine and 709 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:46,239 Speaker 1: masculinization procedure as an adult. Can you talk about what 710 00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:49,399 Speaker 1: he told you? I mean, I just butchered his name 711 00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:51,839 Speaker 1: and everything else, But can you tell us what he 712 00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:53,439 Speaker 1: said and what you learned from him? 713 00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:57,280 Speaker 8: Well, Scott was born a female, was originally named Kelly, 714 00:43:57,360 --> 00:43:59,959 Speaker 8: changed the name to Scott, changed the quote unquote jender 715 00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:04,920 Speaker 8: regrets going through it, as you mentioned, and was basically 716 00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,960 Speaker 8: saying it's like Whack a Mole, that whenever you think 717 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:12,200 Speaker 8: you've stopped one problem with this transgender situation, another problem 718 00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:15,120 Speaker 8: pops up, just like that game Whack a Mole. And 719 00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:19,560 Speaker 8: so that's what Scott told me. And it's really really 720 00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:22,400 Speaker 8: that if people might want to look Scott up on 721 00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:26,799 Speaker 8: social media, because Scott will reveal a lot about the 722 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:35,640 Speaker 8: medical issues that continue to happen, repeat infections. Publicly has 723 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:37,880 Speaker 8: stated he has to lose all of him actually, she 724 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:41,000 Speaker 8: has to lose all of her teeth because of all 725 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:44,279 Speaker 8: of this. The bone density's gone and the jaw will 726 00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 8: support against the teeth. At least that was what was stated. 727 00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:50,000 Speaker 8: Had to take up a public collection to pay for 728 00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:54,080 Speaker 8: these massive gentle bills. It's just really sad to see 729 00:44:55,040 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 8: what effects that Scott has endured after undergoing these masculine procedures. 730 00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 1: So, and you know, Janis and you touch on it 731 00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:07,000 Speaker 1: a little bit in your story that the bugaboo on 732 00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:10,040 Speaker 1: the other side always as well, if we don't permit this, 733 00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:14,880 Speaker 1: they're going to commit suicide. I've never seen any statistics 734 00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 1: that back to that proposition up. I mean, did you 735 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:19,520 Speaker 1: run into anything like that. 736 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 8: There are statistics that are hotly debated is what I 737 00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:28,680 Speaker 8: would like to say about that. The best data is 738 00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:33,160 Speaker 8: actually from Sweden, which shows because they are able to 739 00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:37,359 Speaker 8: track everybody who's had these procedures since his socialized medicine there, 740 00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:41,719 Speaker 8: and it shows actually that people who have had this 741 00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:45,920 Speaker 8: these procedures done commit suicide at a higher rate than 742 00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:49,520 Speaker 8: the general population by many times, and they also have 743 00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:54,480 Speaker 8: a much lower life expectancy, and that those are absolute facts. 744 00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:57,760 Speaker 8: There are some other advocacy groups that have some data 745 00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:02,239 Speaker 8: out there that suggest thaticidal ideation and things, but the 746 00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:05,279 Speaker 8: problem is there's just a lot of concerns about the 747 00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:07,680 Speaker 8: way that data was collected in general and things like that, 748 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:11,719 Speaker 8: so it's hard to know but whether that's a true 749 00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:15,840 Speaker 8: statement or not, but it literally this is how Scott 750 00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:19,520 Speaker 8: has described it to me that initially there's a period 751 00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:22,319 Speaker 8: of euphoria after the person gets the procedures done and 752 00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:24,319 Speaker 8: they're like, hey, I'm this new person, this is who 753 00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:27,520 Speaker 8: I want to be, but many of them have underlying 754 00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:33,480 Speaker 8: psychological issues. And then after that initial period of euphoria 755 00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:36,760 Speaker 8: wears off, there's still they realized it didn't really fix 756 00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:40,279 Speaker 8: any of their underlying problems that are still there, and 757 00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:43,920 Speaker 8: they just changed their outward appearance, but the problems inside 758 00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:46,480 Speaker 8: of them persist. 759 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:48,359 Speaker 1: You know, and you also point out too. In May 760 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:53,759 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five, Health and Human Services report concluded that 761 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:58,640 Speaker 1: gender transitioning procedures carry risk that seem to outweigh the 762 00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:02,720 Speaker 1: possible benefits. And I guess that was a HHS secretary 763 00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:05,960 Speaker 1: of Robert Kennedy, Bobby Kennedy, who put that out, and 764 00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:09,600 Speaker 1: of course, in response, nineteen states and the District of 765 00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:13,400 Speaker 1: Columbia sued over Robert Kennedy's declaration. 766 00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:18,160 Speaker 8: Yeah, so it's still an evolving situation, and there's a 767 00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:22,600 Speaker 8: lot of concern that if the midterms do not go 768 00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:26,880 Speaker 8: the Republican's way and Democrats get that can power, a 769 00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:30,759 Speaker 8: lot of these changes could go by the wayside. So 770 00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:34,520 Speaker 8: it'll be interesting to see what does happen in the midterms, 771 00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:38,360 Speaker 8: because it's not just this issue that people think, you know, 772 00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:42,720 Speaker 8: might get completely reversed, but many others they have changed 773 00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:45,120 Speaker 8: just in the since Trump took office as the forty 774 00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:46,399 Speaker 8: seventh president last year. 775 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:47,520 Speaker 2: We shall see. 776 00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:50,480 Speaker 1: It's a fluid situation that does look like it's trending 777 00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:53,000 Speaker 1: in my opinion, towards the good guys. 778 00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:54,240 Speaker 2: We shall see what happens. 779 00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:57,439 Speaker 1: Janis has always really appreciates your point of view on this. 780 00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:01,360 Speaker 8: Sure, it's always great to share the perspective, and I 781 00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:02,840 Speaker 8: appreciate you and the listeners. 782 00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:07,760 Speaker 1: Okay, thanks Janis. All right, Janis Heisel of the Epoch Times, 783 00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:12,280 Speaker 1: this is a really great piece too. Again, under federal pressure, 784 00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:17,359 Speaker 1: more gender clinics halt procedures on minors, which is, it's 785 00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:22,560 Speaker 1: just beyond belief that this is happening to miners. 786 00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:26,080 Speaker 2: You know what's a problem. Wait until they're adults. 787 00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:26,239 Speaker 3: Now. 788 00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:29,320 Speaker 1: Again, as I said, oh no, it'll be suicide and 789 00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:31,839 Speaker 1: blah blah blah, blah blah. But as Janis pointed out, 790 00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:35,120 Speaker 1: I think, you know, the figures that they cite are disputed. 791 00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:38,560 Speaker 1: But it's just that it's a horrible thing for society, 792 00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:41,520 Speaker 1: and I'm glad it looks like it's on its way out. 793 00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:43,120 Speaker 2: Hey, we got to take a break for the news. 794 00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:46,640 Speaker 1: But when we get back, open lines, Open lines, Open lines, 795 00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:49,520 Speaker 1: seven four nine, seven thousand, one, eight hundred. 796 00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:51,320 Speaker 2: The big one are the numbers. If you want to 797 00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:52,000 Speaker 2: be involved. 798 00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:56,960 Speaker 1: Mike Allen Saturday Midday, you know, seven hundred WLW Mike 799 00:48:57,000 --> 00:49:00,120 Speaker 1: Allen Saturday Midday, gonna get to the phones.

The shrimp 808 00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:29,319 Speaker 1: is so big you could put a saddle on him. 809 00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:32,160 Speaker 1: I think I got a great kind of selection too, 810 00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:36,080 Speaker 1: even grilled salmon and slice a pizza for the kiddies 811 00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:39,600 Speaker 1: who will never eat fish. It's run by volunteers from 812 00:49:39,680 --> 00:49:43,560 Speaker 1: Boy Scout Troops six fourteen, which way back when I 813 00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:46,320 Speaker 1: was a member of my Scout master and I like 814 00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:51,759 Speaker 1: mentioning this was the great, the legendary Bob Doolan. You know, 815 00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:54,320 Speaker 1: you're a young man and people come through your life 816 00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:56,080 Speaker 1: and into your life and make an impression. 817 00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:57,960 Speaker 2: Mister Doolan was one of them. 818 00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:01,719 Speaker 1: It is Fridays during from five to seven the Saint 819 00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:05,319 Speaker 1: Antonia's Undercroft. It's where the church used to be a 820 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:08,080 Speaker 1: million years ago when I went up there. Jewel mar 821 00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:12,200 Speaker 1: and Linniman plenty of parking. So this is really I'm 822 00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:15,239 Speaker 1: kind of a junkie on the fish fries. This is 823 00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:18,840 Speaker 1: really one of the best. So if you're around that area, 824 00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:22,560 Speaker 1: you should patronize them. Anyway, back to business, back to 825 00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:25,879 Speaker 1: the calls. I think Ransom has been hanging on forever.

I find it very ironic that Joyce Spady, 833 00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:54,600 Speaker 9: who's our rep who does not like Republicans. Just to 834 00:50:54,680 --> 00:50:56,880 Speaker 9: let you know, I called her one time about a 835 00:50:56,960 --> 00:51:00,279 Speaker 9: tax issue I was having for a home and her 836 00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:04,480 Speaker 9: people of her switchboard said, are Democrat or a Republican? 837 00:51:04,600 --> 00:51:05,520 Speaker 4: Or how do you vote? 838 00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:08,440 Speaker 9: I said, I primarily go down the middle. I'm an independent, 839 00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:13,080 Speaker 9: probably Republican. Well we don't. We don't service Republicans here, 840 00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:17,600 Speaker 9: so don't ever call us again. WHOA so that's from 841 00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:21,200 Speaker 9: that's a US congresswoman. I find it ironic that she 842 00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:26,200 Speaker 9: probably voted against uh you know the uh you know 843 00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:29,520 Speaker 9: the department that we need the money for ice and 844 00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:32,600 Speaker 9: all these others. Sure, and but yet she came out 845 00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:34,480 Speaker 9: glowingly this morning. 846 00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:36,560 Speaker 7: And praised the young uh uh. 847 00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:40,040 Speaker 9: Serviceman from Columbus who gave his life for his country 848 00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:43,600 Speaker 9: so she could get political points. I'm sure, Uh. These 849 00:51:43,600 --> 00:51:46,880 Speaker 9: people have no heart, they have no conscious, they have 850 00:51:47,040 --> 00:51:49,920 Speaker 9: no soul, and they will and I'm going to say 851 00:51:49,960 --> 00:51:53,960 Speaker 9: this very forcefully, unless they repent before the Lord Jesus Christ, 852 00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:56,000 Speaker 9: they are going to burn in hell for what they've 853 00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:56,840 Speaker 9: done to the country. 854 00:51:57,360 --> 00:51:57,440 Speaker 4: Uh. 855 00:51:57,520 --> 00:52:01,520 Speaker 9: There could see. Politicians don't understand like they're not responsible 856 00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:04,640 Speaker 9: just for their own lives. They affect nearly thousands of 857 00:52:04,960 --> 00:52:08,480 Speaker 9: not millions of people. And God takes that very seriously 858 00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:12,239 Speaker 9: because when you become a politician and you're given authority, 859 00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:15,680 Speaker 9: you are to honor that authority and you're supposed to 860 00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:18,319 Speaker 9: be doing it fort to Proverbs twenty nine to two, 861 00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:22,120 Speaker 9: which says when the righteous and authority, the people rejoice 862 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:25,439 Speaker 9: with the unrighteous in authority. People morn got a couple 863 00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:27,799 Speaker 9: of questions for you. 864 00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 2: Can I ask you for who was this person? 865 00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:33,720 Speaker 1: This is congress person's office, because I think people should 866 00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:36,240 Speaker 1: know that that said, now we don't we don't service 867 00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:37,160 Speaker 1: Republicans here. 868 00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:40,400 Speaker 9: Yeah, it was, it was. It was many years ago. 869 00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:45,480 Speaker 9: That's when I started talking to Jim, Jordan Roy, any 870 00:52:45,520 --> 00:52:50,560 Speaker 9: other any other Marshall Blackburn, anybody that really cares about people. 871 00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:54,440 Speaker 9: As you know, I've called the switchboard probably three hundred 872 00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:59,000 Speaker 9: times over the last three years complaining about the UH, 873 00:52:58,680 --> 00:53:04,520 Speaker 9: the lack of account ability. But on both Republicans and Democrats, 874 00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:08,879 Speaker 9: we both have we our political systems is totally messed up, 875 00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:13,520 Speaker 9: and the word that is lacking is accountability. So that's 876 00:53:13,560 --> 00:53:15,359 Speaker 9: what I want to ask you. Two questions that you've 877 00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:18,080 Speaker 9: been in the law pretty much your entire life. Sure 878 00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:21,120 Speaker 9: one when the UH and I'm going to say I 879 00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:22,959 Speaker 9: want because I love I love listening to you guys 880 00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:25,000 Speaker 9: talking and bringing it out, So I'll give you more 881 00:53:25,040 --> 00:53:28,160 Speaker 9: time to answer the questions. Maybe Janis or I know 882 00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:30,920 Speaker 9: you have the head of the Republican Party come on 883 00:53:31,040 --> 00:53:34,040 Speaker 9: a lot. Maybe he can answer my questions. Liniam know 884 00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:36,360 Speaker 9: Wlson next time talk to him. I've been trying to 885 00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:40,080 Speaker 9: call the Franklin County Republican Party to offer services to them. 886 00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:43,719 Speaker 9: They don't even have a working phone number. Okay, yeah, 887 00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:45,600 Speaker 9: so that's not good. And then I called the state 888 00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:49,680 Speaker 9: Republican party to tell them about that situation, and nobody 889 00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:52,799 Speaker 9: at the state level is returning my phone calls. So 890 00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:55,000 Speaker 9: when you got people like myself who are willing to 891 00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:57,759 Speaker 9: get involved the problem, you got it then and then 892 00:53:57,920 --> 00:53:59,759 Speaker 9: and then you and you're not going to respond back. 893 00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:03,440 Speaker 9: And you know that's the Ostrich in the head scenario. 894 00:54:04,080 --> 00:54:06,919 Speaker 2: But give me the please give me the two things 895 00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:07,920 Speaker 2: ransom please. 896 00:54:08,080 --> 00:54:08,279 Speaker 4: Yeah. 897 00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:12,680 Speaker 9: The two questions, like real quick, are when the Democrats 898 00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:16,960 Speaker 9: settle in our hands at the State of the Union 899 00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:20,440 Speaker 9: address with Donald Trump and he said, is that the 900 00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:24,359 Speaker 9: federal government's job to protect US citizen or illegal aliens? 901 00:54:24,400 --> 00:54:30,200 Speaker 9: And all fifty three Democrats other than John Fetterman sit 902 00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:33,239 Speaker 9: on their hands. The question is, and maybe you could 903 00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:35,160 Speaker 9: find out and maybe give it to us next week 904 00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:37,759 Speaker 9: or whatever. When they did that, did they break their 905 00:54:38,320 --> 00:54:41,120 Speaker 9: oath of office? Because when they swear in as a 906 00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:45,160 Speaker 9: congress person, they're taking an oath to protect known to 907 00:54:45,239 --> 00:54:49,439 Speaker 9: the country but the people of the country. And yeah, 908 00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:51,759 Speaker 9: they might have broke the oath of office. And if 909 00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:54,640 Speaker 9: we wanted to carry it kind of to the crazy extreme, 910 00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:57,960 Speaker 9: which will never happen, but technically we should have fifty 911 00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:00,640 Speaker 9: three less democratic member of the car. 912 00:55:00,719 --> 00:55:01,600 Speaker 2: You're right, You're right. 913 00:55:01,640 --> 00:55:05,400 Speaker 9: They forgot they forgot about who employs them, which is 914 00:55:05,440 --> 00:55:06,600 Speaker 9: their constituents. 915 00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:08,560 Speaker 2: And the last question is, yeah, you got to make 916 00:55:08,560 --> 00:55:09,120 Speaker 2: a quick though. 917 00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:13,399 Speaker 9: Yeah, I want to know about primaries. You might want 918 00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:16,839 Speaker 9: to talk to you, because we got to get some accountability, Mike, 919 00:55:17,440 --> 00:55:20,680 Speaker 9: and and the primary process, either on the local, state 920 00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:24,400 Speaker 9: or federal level. These politicians got to be held accountable. 921 00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:26,760 Speaker 9: You and I have both been in the private sector. 922 00:55:27,040 --> 00:55:29,120 Speaker 9: If you don't do what your employitation to do, you 923 00:55:29,160 --> 00:55:32,360 Speaker 9: get fired. These people keep going on, and they also 924 00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:37,200 Speaker 9: should hold up their pensions. Biden, Mariarchus and Harris is 925 00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:39,040 Speaker 9: certainly not get a pinsion of me. 926 00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:40,759 Speaker 2: Let me do this. 927 00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:42,600 Speaker 1: I gotta move on. I got a lot of college. 928 00:55:42,680 --> 00:55:45,120 Speaker 1: I will check those two things out. Rands my promise. 929 00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:48,120 Speaker 9: Hey, thank you, Michael.

What you got for me, Well. 937 00:56:03,080 --> 00:56:04,360 Speaker 4: It's just about the tariffs. 938 00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:08,120 Speaker 10: You know, I don't think anybody should be reinbursed for 939 00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:11,799 Speaker 10: the tariffs that you know, the citizens shouldn't be, the 940 00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:15,799 Speaker 10: corporations shouldn't be. When you know, nobody knew the way 941 00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:20,560 Speaker 10: President Trump used his tariff power that it would be 942 00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:23,359 Speaker 10: interpreted as being incorrect. 943 00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:26,920 Speaker 2: You're right, and what a panors box that is. We 944 00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:28,280 Speaker 2: don't need those exactly. 945 00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:32,000 Speaker 1: No, I get that, I get that, and you know 946 00:56:32,080 --> 00:56:36,279 Speaker 1: I agree with you too. But anyway, is that all 947 00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:37,040 Speaker 1: you got? 948 00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:38,239 Speaker 4: Well? 949 00:56:38,320 --> 00:56:40,120 Speaker 10: Yeah, and the reason I brought that up is when 950 00:56:40,160 --> 00:56:42,640 Speaker 10: you earlier in your show in the beginning, he said 951 00:56:42,640 --> 00:56:45,879 Speaker 10: bite the bullet for something I can't remember exactly. Well, 952 00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:48,799 Speaker 10: we everybody needs to bite the bullet on this one 953 00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:50,640 Speaker 10: because his intention was good. 954 00:56:50,880 --> 00:56:54,400 Speaker 1: Yes, and I think what you're referring to, I said, 955 00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:57,680 Speaker 1: suck it up. Uh, that's what the gas price is too. 956 00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:00,719 Speaker 1: But you're right about that. I appreciate the call, Larry. 957 00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:01,880 Speaker 4: Thank you. 958 00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:04,520 Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, that's bye bye. 959 00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:07,279 Speaker 1: That terrif issue is kind of receded with the war 960 00:57:07,320 --> 00:57:09,920 Speaker 1: and everything else. But I don't know what kind of 961 00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:14,200 Speaker 1: formula would you use if you're given rebates, So we 962 00:57:14,239 --> 00:57:16,200 Speaker 1: don't need that. That's another one you got to suck 963 00:57:16,320 --> 00:57:18,800 Speaker 1: up like the gas prices. At the end of the day, 964 00:57:19,240 --> 00:57:22,160 Speaker 1: in my humble opinion, it is worth it. Hey, let's see, 965 00:57:22,200 --> 00:57:25,160 Speaker 1: let's talk to Joel. He's been holding on forever. Hey, Joel, 966 00:57:25,200 --> 00:57:27,240 Speaker 1: thanks for hanging in there with us. 967 00:57:27,800 --> 00:57:30,160 Speaker 11: Yeah, good Moaren, thanks for taking my call. I just 968 00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:35,200 Speaker 11: want to comment about young conservative especially conservative males, moving 969 00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:37,840 Speaker 11: away from Trump and even gay evans. 970 00:57:39,080 --> 00:57:40,560 Speaker 2: That's a problem. 971 00:57:41,120 --> 00:57:42,040 Speaker 4: It's a big problem. 972 00:57:42,080 --> 00:57:46,040 Speaker 11: And when you look at the polls, it's happening, uh quickly, 973 00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:48,880 Speaker 11: and I think a lot of it is Donald Trump's fault. 974 00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:52,480 Speaker 1: And he tell me why you think that? Because I 975 00:57:52,600 --> 00:57:54,840 Speaker 1: probably agree with you, But why do you think that? 976 00:57:54,960 --> 00:57:58,040 Speaker 11: The press the preface that I'm a three time Trump voter. 977 00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:00,960 Speaker 11: I voted for him three times, and I consider myself 978 00:58:01,040 --> 00:58:06,200 Speaker 11: more of like a nationalist splash Christian conservative. So the 979 00:58:06,240 --> 00:58:10,040 Speaker 11: big thing is the flip that Trump has done on 980 00:58:10,800 --> 00:58:13,240 Speaker 11: a lot of his campaign issues. When he won in 981 00:58:13,280 --> 00:58:18,600 Speaker 11: twenty twenty four, he campaigned on lowering spending, draining the swamp, 982 00:58:18,800 --> 00:58:21,800 Speaker 11: and no new wars, and exposing the Epstein files, And 983 00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:24,920 Speaker 11: so far he has done none of those things and 984 00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:29,960 Speaker 11: actually done a reparable damage on all four of those issues, 985 00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:34,040 Speaker 11: and to highlight. I think the biggest one as far 986 00:58:34,080 --> 00:58:36,800 Speaker 11: as draining the swamp, I think the thing that brings 987 00:58:36,840 --> 00:58:39,880 Speaker 11: this to the forefront is his battle against Thomas Massey. 988 00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:42,920 Speaker 11: You don't have to like Thomas Massey, but you have 989 00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:45,800 Speaker 11: to agree that he is a man of integrity, that 990 00:58:45,880 --> 00:58:50,520 Speaker 11: he his main issues are lowering government spending and protecting 991 00:58:50,600 --> 00:58:54,040 Speaker 11: children by releasing the Epstein files. And Trump is going 992 00:58:54,120 --> 00:58:58,120 Speaker 11: against them, as well as the Israel lobbies spending tens 993 00:58:58,160 --> 00:59:01,840 Speaker 11: of without sends of billions millions of against Thomas Massey 994 00:59:02,200 --> 00:59:05,800 Speaker 11: because he's Thomas Massey's truly trying to drain the swamp 995 00:59:05,880 --> 00:59:06,600 Speaker 11: and Trump is not. 996 00:59:07,640 --> 00:59:10,080 Speaker 4: I'm curious what you're thought are. 997 00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:10,800 Speaker 2: On that I appreciate. 998 00:59:10,880 --> 00:59:12,880 Speaker 1: I'll let you go, Joel, and I'll answer, and thank 999 00:59:12,920 --> 00:59:14,680 Speaker 1: you for the call, and thank you for the question. 1000 00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:18,520 Speaker 1: You know what, I don't disagree with all of that, 1001 00:59:18,680 --> 00:59:21,800 Speaker 1: but I'll tell you what. In Trump's first term, go 1002 00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:24,320 Speaker 1: back and look if you don't believe me, that guy 1003 00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:27,840 Speaker 1: did just about everything he said he would do, with 1004 00:59:27,920 --> 00:59:31,040 Speaker 1: the exception of getting rid of Obamacare. And that was 1005 00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:34,320 Speaker 1: Thank you John McCain for that lost it by one 1006 00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:36,200 Speaker 1: vote this time around. 1007 00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:37,520 Speaker 2: As far as the wars go. 1008 00:59:37,760 --> 00:59:42,520 Speaker 1: Look, you got those idiots, those religious fanatics over there. 1009 00:59:42,760 --> 00:59:45,160 Speaker 1: You don't want them with their finger on a nuclear 1010 00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:47,920 Speaker 1: button or anything else. He had to do what he 1011 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:50,440 Speaker 1: had to do. And as far as Thomas Massey, I 1012 00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:53,320 Speaker 1: respect him, I really do. I don't know him, but 1013 00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:55,760 Speaker 1: I respect him. There are just some people, and Ran 1014 00:59:55,840 --> 00:59:58,280 Speaker 1: Paul's kind of like that too. I mean, they're just 1015 00:59:58,400 --> 01:00:00,360 Speaker 1: they are who they are, and they have set of 1016 01:00:00,400 --> 01:00:03,280 Speaker 1: principles and they're not uh, they're not going to ban 1017 01:00:03,480 --> 01:00:06,600 Speaker 1: so and I do respect that. I think let's wait 1018 01:00:06,640 --> 01:00:08,360 Speaker 1: till the end of the day. Let's wait till the 1019 01:00:08,440 --> 01:00:11,160 Speaker 1: end of the second term and see how many of 1020 01:00:11,160 --> 01:00:15,040 Speaker 1: his promises he fulfilled. I don't know of any president 1021 01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:18,840 Speaker 1: of any party ever that has fulfilled more that fulfilled 1022 01:00:18,880 --> 01:00:22,640 Speaker 1: more campaign promises in his first term. The Donald Trump, 1023 01:00:22,680 --> 01:00:25,040 Speaker 1: I mean, it was uncanny. He told us what he 1024 01:00:25,160 --> 01:00:27,200 Speaker 1: was gonna do, and he did it. And I think 1025 01:00:27,240 --> 01:00:28,920 Speaker 1: for the most part, he's doing that. 1026 01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:29,320 Speaker 2: Here. 1027 01:00:29,600 --> 01:00:34,200 Speaker 1: Hey, let's talk to Scott in Franklin.

Little attention was given to those 1034 01:00:49,080 --> 01:00:53,640 Speaker 12: who participated in neutralizing that terrorist in the ROTC class. 1035 01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:55,080 Speaker 4: Yes, uh, was. 1036 01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:58,440 Speaker 12: It one individual who overtook him and killed him with 1037 01:00:58,440 --> 01:00:59,280 Speaker 12: the ninth don't know. 1038 01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:02,840 Speaker 1: Don't know yet.

I'm sure it'll come out, 1042 01:01:13,080 --> 01:01:15,840 Speaker 1: probably pretty soon too. But it's a very good question. 1043 01:01:16,520 --> 01:01:17,040 Speaker 9: When they will. 1044 01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:20,800 Speaker 12: They're reported on the mainstream literbal media, and I saw 1045 01:01:20,840 --> 01:01:24,640 Speaker 12: the report. They did little, They did little to mension 1046 01:01:26,200 --> 01:01:29,200 Speaker 12: what happened in that scenario in there. But they should 1047 01:01:29,280 --> 01:01:33,320 Speaker 12: be profiled and exalted as heroes or a hero if 1048 01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:35,880 Speaker 12: it was one individual in the class it overtook that 1049 01:01:36,680 --> 01:01:39,800 Speaker 12: endeavor to neutralize that man.

But here's the thing, and 1102 01:04:00,920 --> 01:04:05,520 Speaker 3: I've talked to Quomo about this radicalization is caused by 1103 01:04:05,600 --> 01:04:11,280 Speaker 3: algorithms through social media. We're talking about incidences that happen 1104 01:04:11,360 --> 01:04:15,640 Speaker 3: in Michigan and Virginia. What we've got to do, ladies 1105 01:04:15,720 --> 01:04:17,840 Speaker 3: and gentlemen, is we've got to get to the point 1106 01:04:17,920 --> 01:04:24,520 Speaker 3: where we understand what's causing these tragic events. People they'll 1107 01:04:24,640 --> 01:04:28,600 Speaker 3: pine politically, they take favor with the party that they 1108 01:04:28,640 --> 01:04:32,640 Speaker 3: belong to, but they don't see objectively what we're looking for. 1109 01:04:32,800 --> 01:04:35,920 Speaker 3: What we need to get to the truth. And the 1110 01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:39,880 Speaker 3: only way that you're going to do that is have discourse, using, 1111 01:04:40,640 --> 01:04:44,080 Speaker 3: you know, both sides, and getting to conclusions that make 1112 01:04:44,960 --> 01:04:47,200 Speaker 3: both sides amenable. I got to ask you, my friend, 1113 01:04:47,240 --> 01:04:47,800 Speaker 3: are you married? 1114 01:04:48,680 --> 01:04:49,240 Speaker 2: No, I'm not. 1115 01:04:50,000 --> 01:04:53,520 Speaker 1: And I'm sorry, Greg, but I'm running out. I got 1116 01:04:53,520 --> 01:04:54,360 Speaker 1: to get to the news. 1117 01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:55,760 Speaker 4: But okay, let me ask you. 1118 01:04:55,960 --> 01:04:58,320 Speaker 1: Let me just ask you one question. What you said 1119 01:04:58,600 --> 01:05:01,360 Speaker 1: we got to have dialogue. Do you actually think the 1120 01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:04,400 Speaker 1: left would get into any dialogue with us? I think 1121 01:05:04,680 --> 01:05:07,600 Speaker 1: conservative would be much more likely to want to do that. 1122 01:05:08,040 --> 01:05:10,640 Speaker 1: I ain't so sure about the other guys. 1123 01:05:11,120 --> 01:05:15,640 Speaker 3: Well, here's the thing. Now, you're being divisive by saying that, yes, 1124 01:05:15,720 --> 01:05:19,720 Speaker 3: I think everybody would like to get riding of murders 1125 01:05:19,720 --> 01:05:24,000 Speaker 3: and violence and terrorist attacks. So to assume that because 1126 01:05:24,040 --> 01:05:28,919 Speaker 3: you're a conservative that other people don't want peace and love. 1127 01:05:29,120 --> 01:05:32,160 Speaker 1: I didn't say that they would. They don't want to talk. 1128 01:05:32,480 --> 01:05:34,920 Speaker 1: I gotta let you go, though, Greg.

What you get from them is. 1135 01:05:52,440 --> 01:05:56,760 Speaker 1: Talking, not talking to you, talking at you, you know, 1136 01:05:57,200 --> 01:06:00,919 Speaker 1: and they will never consider in a point of view. 1137 01:06:00,960 --> 01:06:03,640 Speaker 1: And I know you're not supposed to generalize, but I 1138 01:06:03,680 --> 01:06:07,680 Speaker 1: feel real comfortable generalizing on that one. Hey, we got 1139 01:06:07,680 --> 01:06:09,080 Speaker 1: to take a break for the news. But when we 1140 01:06:09,080 --> 01:06:11,120 Speaker 1: get back, I'm looking forward to this.

And I'll tell 1152 01:06:51,600 --> 01:06:54,840 Speaker 1: you what, even with the situation with Hunter Green, I 1153 01:06:54,880 --> 01:06:58,320 Speaker 1: think hopes are still high, at least for a return 1154 01:06:58,360 --> 01:07:01,880 Speaker 1: of the playoffs, and perhaps even then some here to 1155 01:07:01,960 --> 01:07:05,200 Speaker 1: talk about that in all things Reds Baseball is our guy, 1156 01:07:05,600 --> 01:07:06,680 Speaker 1: Daddy arm Brewster. 1157 01:07:06,840 --> 01:07:07,640 Speaker 2: Yet, how are you? 1158 01:07:08,920 --> 01:07:11,440 Speaker 4: I'm pretty good, Mike. I'm out here in the desert 1159 01:07:11,480 --> 01:07:14,520 Speaker 4: getting very very hot. Yeah's going to be hotter as 1160 01:07:14,560 --> 01:07:15,400 Speaker 4: the week goes on. 1161 01:07:15,640 --> 01:07:18,320 Speaker 1: I heard about that they had to move some game times. 1162 01:07:18,360 --> 01:07:19,360 Speaker 1: I guess, is that right? 1163 01:07:19,680 --> 01:07:22,000 Speaker 4: Yeah they moved. Yeah, they moved the games on both 1164 01:07:22,040 --> 01:07:25,200 Speaker 4: Friday and Saturday tonight because Friday it is supposed to 1165 01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:26,440 Speaker 4: be one hundred and five. 1166 01:07:27,160 --> 01:07:32,680 Speaker 1: Whoa, you know what you'll get. People say, well, that's 1167 01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:35,040 Speaker 1: just a dry heat. That's not a big deal. I 1168 01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:36,080 Speaker 1: wouldn't want to be out of here. 1169 01:07:36,160 --> 01:07:38,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, it's a dry heat in the oven too, 1170 01:07:38,840 --> 01:07:41,000 Speaker 4: But one hundred and five is one hundred and five. No, 1171 01:07:41,080 --> 01:07:44,240 Speaker 4: it is all the years we've been here, it's never 1172 01:07:44,400 --> 01:07:47,360 Speaker 4: it's been. We've had some hot days, but not this long. 1173 01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:50,640 Speaker 4: It has been. Honestly, it's been great. I can I 1174 01:07:50,680 --> 01:07:53,040 Speaker 4: can kind of take the heat, especially when you guys 1175 01:07:53,040 --> 01:07:54,919 Speaker 4: were freezing back there early on a gamp. 1176 01:07:55,080 --> 01:07:55,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1177 01:07:55,520 --> 01:07:57,959 Speaker 1: Really, well, you know what that means. All that means 1178 01:07:58,000 --> 01:07:59,800 Speaker 1: is you got to drink more beer, you know. And 1179 01:08:00,400 --> 01:08:02,240 Speaker 1: that's never a problem, I guess. 1180 01:08:02,080 --> 01:08:04,440 Speaker 4: But really not a problem. You're right. 1181 01:08:04,640 --> 01:08:07,200 Speaker 1: Let's talk about the team a little bit. I mean, 1182 01:08:07,240 --> 01:08:09,959 Speaker 1: I guess you have to start with Hunter Green. Yet 1183 01:08:10,120 --> 01:08:16,040 Speaker 1: another disappointment. And I don't want to get controversial or anything, 1184 01:08:16,120 --> 01:08:19,360 Speaker 1: but I've read a couple of different things where he 1185 01:08:19,400 --> 01:08:22,240 Speaker 1: could have had that surgery in the offseason and he 1186 01:08:22,280 --> 01:08:26,839 Speaker 1: would have been ready for opening Day, but he chose 1187 01:08:26,880 --> 01:08:31,280 Speaker 1: to do a lesser procedure or something that obviously didn't work. 1188 01:08:31,520 --> 01:08:33,759 Speaker 1: I mean, you can't really blame him for that, I guess. 1189 01:08:33,760 --> 01:08:35,520 Speaker 1: But is that even in the ballpark? 1190 01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:39,200 Speaker 4: You'd yeah, you're in the ballpark. He did the they 1191 01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:42,519 Speaker 4: did the PRP injections, and uh, yeah, he should have 1192 01:08:42,560 --> 01:08:43,120 Speaker 4: had it done. 1193 01:08:43,520 --> 01:08:43,920 Speaker 11: Uh. 1194 01:08:43,960 --> 01:08:46,640 Speaker 4: And that's all on Hunter. If anybody is trying to 1195 01:08:46,640 --> 01:08:49,920 Speaker 4: blame the Red's medical staff, you are dead wrong. One 1196 01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:55,280 Speaker 4: wrong because that option was on the table, it never happened. Yeah, 1197 01:08:55,439 --> 01:08:59,960 Speaker 4: you know, and now you're talking about July at the earliest, 1198 01:09:00,600 --> 01:09:04,400 Speaker 4: and sure you know the Reds are playing well, they're 1199 01:09:04,439 --> 01:09:06,840 Speaker 4: still in it. Then he's going to help down the stretch, 1200 01:09:06,920 --> 01:09:10,479 Speaker 4: no question about that. But he is. You know, if 1201 01:09:10,479 --> 01:09:12,639 Speaker 4: he's your best picture, you want him the whole season. 1202 01:09:12,680 --> 01:09:15,880 Speaker 4: You want him to make thirty thirty two starts. Guess what, 1203 01:09:16,040 --> 01:09:18,720 Speaker 4: he hasn't made that yet in his career. And I'll 1204 01:09:18,760 --> 01:09:21,599 Speaker 4: be honest with you, Mike, it fresh frustrates the hell 1205 01:09:21,640 --> 01:09:24,120 Speaker 4: out of me. You know, the guy you got to 1206 01:09:25,240 --> 01:09:28,160 Speaker 4: you got to play. Yeah, you have to play. You're 1207 01:09:28,200 --> 01:09:30,559 Speaker 4: the best, You're the best pitcher on the team. You're 1208 01:09:30,560 --> 01:09:32,680 Speaker 4: getting a good soury. You have to play. I'm not 1209 01:09:32,720 --> 01:09:36,120 Speaker 4: going to sit here and tell you pretend if somebody's 1210 01:09:36,200 --> 01:09:38,160 Speaker 4: hurting or not, because I don't know. I'm not in 1211 01:09:38,160 --> 01:09:42,320 Speaker 4: inside their body. But I can tell you this, there's 1212 01:09:42,400 --> 01:09:45,880 Speaker 4: not a Major League Baseball player and a pitchers especially 1213 01:09:46,400 --> 01:09:48,960 Speaker 4: that don't wake up every day and pain with something 1214 01:09:49,240 --> 01:09:51,280 Speaker 4: because that's just the nature of the business. 1215 01:09:51,439 --> 01:09:52,400 Speaker 2: Yep, I get it. 1216 01:09:53,000 --> 01:09:55,400 Speaker 1: You know a lot of people are saying, well, you know, 1217 01:09:55,680 --> 01:09:57,760 Speaker 1: we told you you should have traded him and got 1218 01:09:57,800 --> 01:09:59,440 Speaker 1: something during the offseason. 1219 01:09:59,479 --> 01:10:01,880 Speaker 2: I don't know that one of them, are you really? 1220 01:10:02,960 --> 01:10:05,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, I said to you last year in the fall, 1221 01:10:05,760 --> 01:10:07,519 Speaker 4: I would have traded even tried to get a back. 1222 01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:09,720 Speaker 4: And I don't be honest with you, I don't know 1223 01:10:09,760 --> 01:10:12,240 Speaker 4: if they if they did or not. I assume you know, 1224 01:10:12,280 --> 01:10:14,960 Speaker 4: they're out listening to everybody. So maybe the offers were 1225 01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:17,759 Speaker 4: on the table when it wasn't enough. And and quite frankly, 1226 01:10:17,800 --> 01:10:19,800 Speaker 4: for Hunter Green, you you have to get a pretty 1227 01:10:19,800 --> 01:10:23,679 Speaker 4: good return. Oh yeah, But but I was one of them. 1228 01:10:23,720 --> 01:10:28,240 Speaker 4: I mean, I would have. But it's you know, I 1229 01:10:28,320 --> 01:10:30,879 Speaker 4: understand why you wouldn't want to trade him, because he's 1230 01:10:31,400 --> 01:10:34,680 Speaker 4: he's good when he's healthy. He's good when he's you know, 1231 01:10:35,240 --> 01:10:37,800 Speaker 4: and you and you never, as you're finding out now, 1232 01:10:37,960 --> 01:10:41,600 Speaker 4: you never have enough pitching, and especially starting pitching. You 1233 01:10:41,720 --> 01:10:44,280 Speaker 4: just never. No team has enough of it. Absolutely, you 1234 01:10:44,320 --> 01:10:46,760 Speaker 4: know it's yeah, if you're going to get rid of it, 1235 01:10:46,840 --> 01:10:48,639 Speaker 4: you better get a big return for it. 1236 01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:52,240 Speaker 1: Well, let's move on from Hunter. Hopefully he gets back 1237 01:10:52,360 --> 01:10:55,840 Speaker 1: sooner rather than later. Then the obvious question becomes, yet, 1238 01:10:56,240 --> 01:10:59,599 Speaker 1: what does that do to the starting lineup? And well, 1239 01:10:59,640 --> 01:11:03,360 Speaker 1: and Hope day pitcher too, And for that fifth starter, 1240 01:11:03,520 --> 01:11:04,120 Speaker 1: what's your. 1241 01:11:04,000 --> 01:11:04,720 Speaker 2: Thoughts on that? 1242 01:11:05,720 --> 01:11:08,120 Speaker 4: Well, I mean the opening day pitchers, Andrew Abbitt. That's 1243 01:11:08,200 --> 01:11:11,439 Speaker 4: that that's already been announced that Nick Lodola goes number two, 1244 01:11:11,479 --> 01:11:14,160 Speaker 4: and I'm really I'm okay with Andrew have it being 1245 01:11:14,160 --> 01:11:16,360 Speaker 4: the opening day starter. I mean, he had a great year. 1246 01:11:16,400 --> 01:11:20,160 Speaker 4: He was an All Star last year. I think he 1247 01:11:20,200 --> 01:11:24,040 Speaker 4: deserves to be the starter. Nick Lodolo, same thing, saving 1248 01:11:24,080 --> 01:11:26,720 Speaker 4: pretty good year. And number three as Brady Singer. He 1249 01:11:26,800 --> 01:11:30,080 Speaker 4: pitched last night. And here's a guy who who won't 1250 01:11:30,080 --> 01:11:34,439 Speaker 4: impress you with you know, a sub three E r 1251 01:11:34,520 --> 01:11:36,639 Speaker 4: A or anything like that, but you know what he does. 1252 01:11:36,920 --> 01:11:40,599 Speaker 4: He takes the ball every single day. He made thirty 1253 01:11:40,640 --> 01:11:44,640 Speaker 4: two starts last year. He'll he'll, he'll, he'll always be 1254 01:11:44,720 --> 01:11:46,479 Speaker 4: there for you. And if he has to, he's one 1255 01:11:46,520 --> 01:11:47,920 Speaker 4: of those guys if he has to take one for 1256 01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:50,479 Speaker 4: the team, if he's having a bad adding but they 1257 01:11:50,560 --> 01:11:52,960 Speaker 4: needing to pitch some innings, eat up innings, he'll do it. 1258 01:11:53,360 --> 01:11:57,880 Speaker 4: So there's your first three. I think Rhet Louder probably 1259 01:11:57,960 --> 01:12:00,759 Speaker 4: will be the number four starter. He's had a pretty 1260 01:12:00,800 --> 01:12:04,160 Speaker 4: good spring out here. Chase Burns is in the mix. 1261 01:12:04,240 --> 01:12:06,679 Speaker 4: He pitched yesterday in the in the other game against 1262 01:12:06,760 --> 01:12:09,120 Speaker 4: the Giants, the one we did not broadcast, and then 1263 01:12:09,160 --> 01:12:13,200 Speaker 4: the other guy in the mix is Brandon Williamson. They've 1264 01:12:13,240 --> 01:12:15,760 Speaker 4: all had pretty good streaks. Here's the problem with that, 1265 01:12:15,800 --> 01:12:19,400 Speaker 4: though none of those guys pitched more than well, two 1266 01:12:19,400 --> 01:12:21,720 Speaker 4: of them didn't pitch at all because of injuries. But 1267 01:12:21,800 --> 01:12:24,679 Speaker 4: you you know, you're you're talking about guys who's only 1268 01:12:24,680 --> 01:12:28,360 Speaker 4: pitched one hundred innings a year or less than that. 1269 01:12:28,760 --> 01:12:32,479 Speaker 4: And you cannot a guy who pitched one hundred innings 1270 01:12:32,479 --> 01:12:33,960 Speaker 4: can all of a sudden go out and pitch one 1271 01:12:34,000 --> 01:12:36,760 Speaker 4: hundred and sixty six innings or two hundred innings. It's 1272 01:12:36,760 --> 01:12:38,880 Speaker 4: not going to happen. So they got to load and 1273 01:12:38,920 --> 01:12:42,000 Speaker 4: manage these guys. And that's why you need more That's 1274 01:12:42,040 --> 01:12:44,240 Speaker 4: why you need more bodies at some point, because you 1275 01:12:44,360 --> 01:12:47,320 Speaker 4: just you can't tax them. They can't throw that much, 1276 01:12:47,600 --> 01:12:49,519 Speaker 4: even if they're you know, it's one of those things, 1277 01:12:49,560 --> 01:12:51,960 Speaker 4: even if you're pitching great, you may have to take 1278 01:12:51,960 --> 01:12:54,800 Speaker 4: a guy out in the fifth inning because you got 1279 01:12:54,840 --> 01:12:58,479 Speaker 4: to be worried about August in September, not just you know, 1280 01:12:58,560 --> 01:12:59,280 Speaker 4: May and June. 1281 01:13:00,080 --> 01:13:01,759 Speaker 2: Let's talk a minute about Matt McClain. 1282 01:13:01,920 --> 01:13:06,559 Speaker 1: My goodness, I checked this morning thirty five at batch five, 1283 01:13:06,640 --> 01:13:10,120 Speaker 1: forty three batting average, five home runs. I mean, boy, 1284 01:13:10,160 --> 01:13:13,599 Speaker 1: he is making a statement that last year was kind 1285 01:13:13,600 --> 01:13:14,360 Speaker 1: of an aberration. 1286 01:13:14,560 --> 01:13:15,880 Speaker 2: I guess what do you think? 1287 01:13:16,080 --> 01:13:18,840 Speaker 4: Well, you know, they mean they always say shoulders take 1288 01:13:18,880 --> 01:13:22,240 Speaker 4: two years, and he had. Last year was not He'll 1289 01:13:22,240 --> 01:13:25,080 Speaker 4: admit it, not a great year for him, but he 1290 01:13:25,479 --> 01:13:28,120 Speaker 4: so far, if they pick an MVP for spring training, 1291 01:13:28,200 --> 01:13:31,920 Speaker 4: he's it because he has been out. Yeah, at the plate, 1292 01:13:32,400 --> 01:13:36,120 Speaker 4: defensively he's been good. Uh, he's showing power. The big 1293 01:13:36,160 --> 01:13:38,280 Speaker 4: thing that he's showing is going the other way with 1294 01:13:38,360 --> 01:13:41,599 Speaker 4: the baseball. I know at least one of his home 1295 01:13:41,680 --> 01:13:44,559 Speaker 4: runs went to right field. So uh, yeah, he looks 1296 01:13:44,760 --> 01:13:47,799 Speaker 4: he looks really good, Mike, he's he's you know, carry 1297 01:13:47,840 --> 01:13:51,400 Speaker 4: that into the season and you number one. It solves 1298 01:13:51,439 --> 01:13:53,840 Speaker 4: a lot of problems. You got your second basement. Defensively, 1299 01:13:53,960 --> 01:13:56,920 Speaker 4: you also have your number two hitter, and boy, that'll 1300 01:13:56,960 --> 01:13:59,680 Speaker 4: be something else if you can get him hitting two, 1301 01:13:59,880 --> 01:14:02,439 Speaker 4: l three and four as hitting four. Yes, you know, 1302 01:14:02,560 --> 01:14:05,320 Speaker 4: that really helps in the lineup. That really helps Ellie. 1303 01:14:05,360 --> 01:14:07,160 Speaker 4: You know that that's the big thing. You and Ellie 1304 01:14:07,160 --> 01:14:10,680 Speaker 4: they have a monster season. And if McClain hits and 1305 01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:14,720 Speaker 4: Suarez hits behind him, he's going to have a monster season. 1306 01:14:14,479 --> 01:14:16,240 Speaker 2: No question about it. Let me ask you. 1307 01:14:16,280 --> 01:14:20,320 Speaker 1: I want to ask you about Ellie and Ahuadio Suarez. Uh, 1308 01:14:20,479 --> 01:14:22,800 Speaker 1: let's start with Ellie. How is he looking? Did they 1309 01:14:22,840 --> 01:14:26,680 Speaker 1: give him some extra work on on fielding? And is 1310 01:14:26,720 --> 01:14:27,920 Speaker 1: all that gonna be okay? 1311 01:14:28,760 --> 01:14:32,960 Speaker 4: Well, he looks fine. He threw one kind of low 1312 01:14:32,960 --> 01:14:36,840 Speaker 4: in the dirt last night on a play the short stop. 1313 01:14:36,840 --> 01:14:39,200 Speaker 4: That's the one thing that you have to kind of 1314 01:14:39,200 --> 01:14:41,920 Speaker 4: worry about with him. But the other day he had 1315 01:14:42,560 --> 01:14:45,080 Speaker 4: a great play where he one hopped at the first 1316 01:14:45,120 --> 01:14:48,960 Speaker 4: base for the out. And I think I think we'll 1317 01:14:48,960 --> 01:14:50,760 Speaker 4: see if he's getting better or that. It's easy to 1318 01:14:50,800 --> 01:14:53,439 Speaker 4: say that now when the bell rings, we'll really see 1319 01:14:53,479 --> 01:14:56,880 Speaker 4: if defensively he's improved. But you know, he looks better. 1320 01:14:56,960 --> 01:15:01,639 Speaker 4: He's big and strong now and he no, he looks fine. 1321 01:15:01,680 --> 01:15:04,400 Speaker 4: Mike last night didn't get a hit, but he stole 1322 01:15:04,479 --> 01:15:09,559 Speaker 4: three bases. We need that. He's Yeah, he's on his 1323 01:15:09,680 --> 01:15:12,800 Speaker 4: game right now. He really, Uh, he's playing well. So 1324 01:15:12,840 --> 01:15:15,400 Speaker 4: we'll we'll see. Well defensively, we'll just have to see. 1325 01:15:15,400 --> 01:15:17,920 Speaker 4: But it helps to have to keep Brian Hayes playing 1326 01:15:17,960 --> 01:15:20,360 Speaker 4: third base, yes, uh, and it does help to have 1327 01:15:20,360 --> 01:15:24,519 Speaker 4: Matt McLain back at second base, so you know, we'll 1328 01:15:24,520 --> 01:15:26,800 Speaker 4: see I mean, obviously you can't have the guy to 1329 01:15:26,880 --> 01:15:28,679 Speaker 4: lead the league in airs three years in a row. 1330 01:15:29,200 --> 01:15:31,920 Speaker 4: So hopefully the work he's done in the off season 1331 01:15:32,400 --> 01:15:36,040 Speaker 4: will we'll help that and you know he'll he'll play 1332 01:15:36,120 --> 01:15:38,680 Speaker 4: much better this year. And I really, I really do, 1333 01:15:38,800 --> 01:15:40,920 Speaker 4: I really do think he's going to have a big, 1334 01:15:41,040 --> 01:15:42,679 Speaker 4: monster year, especially at the plate. 1335 01:15:43,040 --> 01:15:45,920 Speaker 1: Well that would be great. Let me ask you this, Ah, 1336 01:15:46,520 --> 01:15:47,360 Speaker 1: how's he looking. 1337 01:15:49,479 --> 01:15:51,360 Speaker 4: Well, we haven't seen him for a while because he's 1338 01:15:51,400 --> 01:15:54,160 Speaker 4: with he's playing in the World Baseball Classes. 1339 01:15:54,560 --> 01:15:57,240 Speaker 1: I didn't know that, you know, you know what about 1340 01:15:57,240 --> 01:16:00,679 Speaker 1: a week. I missed it. I mean been with him 1341 01:16:00,960 --> 01:16:03,600 Speaker 1: for the whole thing because I look for Red. I 1342 01:16:03,720 --> 01:16:05,040 Speaker 1: might have just flown right by it. 1343 01:16:06,040 --> 01:16:09,160 Speaker 4: No Venezuela. Yeah, he's been with him the whole time, Okay, 1344 01:16:09,160 --> 01:16:11,160 Speaker 4: And so you know he was here, was here and 1345 01:16:11,200 --> 01:16:13,479 Speaker 4: played in I don't know, maybe two or three four 1346 01:16:13,520 --> 01:16:18,280 Speaker 4: games and then took off, but back next week for 1347 01:16:18,400 --> 01:16:22,400 Speaker 4: that final week. And I don't think that's the guy 1348 01:16:22,439 --> 01:16:24,920 Speaker 4: you'll worry about if he looks okay. In spring training, 1349 01:16:25,000 --> 01:16:27,600 Speaker 4: he could hit nothing, and you know he's going to 1350 01:16:27,680 --> 01:16:30,320 Speaker 4: be okay. It's kind of like Joey Vado never hit 1351 01:16:30,360 --> 01:16:35,360 Speaker 4: a good spring right because he's working on stuff. So yeah, 1352 01:16:35,400 --> 01:16:37,919 Speaker 4: I think I don't think there's anything to worry about Suarez. 1353 01:16:38,240 --> 01:16:40,519 Speaker 4: I mean, I'm sure they wish he was here. I 1354 01:16:40,560 --> 01:16:43,479 Speaker 4: don't think any teams really liked their guys playing in 1355 01:16:43,520 --> 01:16:46,320 Speaker 4: the World Baseball Classic for a lot of reasons. But 1356 01:16:47,160 --> 01:16:49,040 Speaker 4: you know, you would like to see him out on 1357 01:16:49,080 --> 01:16:50,960 Speaker 4: the field, and he will be for the final week 1358 01:16:51,000 --> 01:16:55,160 Speaker 4: with you know, with the rest of the team, but 1359 01:16:55,240 --> 01:16:57,280 Speaker 4: he's you know, he's going to be the d H 1360 01:16:57,400 --> 01:17:00,599 Speaker 4: most of the time anyway. So I think I think 1361 01:17:00,640 --> 01:17:02,240 Speaker 4: he'll be just fine. I don't think there's gonna be 1362 01:17:02,240 --> 01:17:02,920 Speaker 4: a problem at all. 1363 01:17:03,520 --> 01:17:06,519 Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, talking about the WBC, it 1364 01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:10,960 Speaker 1: sure seems to me that it has arrived. I've watched 1365 01:17:10,960 --> 01:17:14,280 Speaker 1: more of it this year than any other year. You 1366 01:17:14,400 --> 01:17:18,000 Speaker 1: got the United States in contention, they're three and one. 1367 01:17:18,040 --> 01:17:22,280 Speaker 2: In Italy. How does that happen? They're four and oh. 1368 01:17:22,840 --> 01:17:25,600 Speaker 1: I mean, your thoughts on it just generally, Uh, do 1369 01:17:25,680 --> 01:17:27,679 Speaker 1: you agree with me that it's a it's a real 1370 01:17:27,760 --> 01:17:28,760 Speaker 1: help for baseball. 1371 01:17:29,880 --> 01:17:33,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's fun. I like it. I watched I watched 1372 01:17:33,280 --> 01:17:36,320 Speaker 4: that Italy game Michael Lorenzen pitch for Italy. Yeah, this 1373 01:17:36,520 --> 01:17:41,240 Speaker 4: is interesting. It's it's fun, I mean, and I don't 1374 01:17:41,240 --> 01:17:44,559 Speaker 4: know if there's a good time to do it. That's 1375 01:17:44,600 --> 01:17:48,200 Speaker 4: the problem, you know, that's my only hang up with it, 1376 01:17:48,240 --> 01:17:51,800 Speaker 4: is that you've got guys, especially pitchers. I don't worry 1377 01:17:51,840 --> 01:17:55,080 Speaker 4: about the position players so much, but you got pitchers 1378 01:17:55,080 --> 01:17:58,200 Speaker 4: that got to get ready for the season. And if 1379 01:17:58,240 --> 01:18:01,000 Speaker 4: you want to have your own coach watching them, you know, 1380 01:18:01,120 --> 01:18:04,320 Speaker 4: you don't want to have they're throwing some of these 1381 01:18:04,360 --> 01:18:08,240 Speaker 4: games because they're so intense. You know, guys are throwing 1382 01:18:08,320 --> 01:18:11,040 Speaker 4: max effort when they probably really shouldn't be at this 1383 01:18:11,120 --> 01:18:16,400 Speaker 4: point in spring. But the games are themselves. I love it. 1384 01:18:16,520 --> 01:18:19,040 Speaker 4: I love watching it that you can tell that, you know, 1385 01:18:19,080 --> 01:18:23,000 Speaker 4: I don't think in those other wdc's when they first started, 1386 01:18:23,040 --> 01:18:25,840 Speaker 4: the Americans were all that into it, But now they are. 1387 01:18:26,040 --> 01:18:28,960 Speaker 4: You should see read their comments. They're really into it. 1388 01:18:29,000 --> 01:18:31,040 Speaker 4: And you know the other teams are too. You know, 1389 01:18:31,240 --> 01:18:34,360 Speaker 4: Japan is with Otani on their team, and the Dominican 1390 01:18:34,439 --> 01:18:37,800 Speaker 4: Republic is those guys and they go all out it's great. 1391 01:18:37,840 --> 01:18:39,679 Speaker 4: It's fun baseball, it really is. Yeah. 1392 01:18:39,720 --> 01:18:41,840 Speaker 1: I mean they're four and oh the dr I think 1393 01:18:41,880 --> 01:18:46,400 Speaker 1: the Reds played the Reds. USA plays them. I don't 1394 01:18:46,400 --> 01:18:49,879 Speaker 1: know if it's today or tomorrow, but USA tomorrow, Okay, 1395 01:18:50,200 --> 01:18:52,280 Speaker 1: USA is still in it, and I don't know. 1396 01:18:52,520 --> 01:18:54,240 Speaker 2: It's just kind of cool. I mean baseball. 1397 01:18:54,320 --> 01:18:57,759 Speaker 1: I think over the last I don't know, five ten years, 1398 01:18:58,040 --> 01:19:01,160 Speaker 1: they've done a lot. I think to help keep the 1399 01:19:01,280 --> 01:19:04,559 Speaker 1: interest in the game. What I worry about is, you know, 1400 01:19:04,640 --> 01:19:07,200 Speaker 1: get through this season and boom, you know what's on 1401 01:19:07,240 --> 01:19:10,479 Speaker 1: the horizon and that's a strike. I think that would 1402 01:19:10,600 --> 01:19:13,360 Speaker 1: just about ruin all the good things that they did. 1403 01:19:13,680 --> 01:19:14,160 Speaker 2: What do you. 1404 01:19:14,160 --> 01:19:17,599 Speaker 4: Think, Well, no, I agree with you. I mean, if 1405 01:19:17,640 --> 01:19:21,800 Speaker 4: you even talk around here is we may not be 1406 01:19:21,840 --> 01:19:24,639 Speaker 4: in Arizona next spring training because there probably won't be one. 1407 01:19:25,360 --> 01:19:27,280 Speaker 4: There's going to be a labor dispute. It'll be I 1408 01:19:27,280 --> 01:19:29,840 Speaker 4: think it'll be a lockout before it's a strike, and 1409 01:19:29,920 --> 01:19:32,519 Speaker 4: it'll happen, you know, when the World Series is over. 1410 01:19:32,680 --> 01:19:35,559 Speaker 4: I think I think the CBA ends on December first 1411 01:19:35,640 --> 01:19:38,400 Speaker 4: or something like that. Yeah, so I can see I 1412 01:19:38,439 --> 01:19:41,479 Speaker 4: can see them being locked out. It could be long, 1413 01:19:41,560 --> 01:19:45,200 Speaker 4: it could be ugly, but we'll see. I mean, at 1414 01:19:45,200 --> 01:19:47,200 Speaker 4: the end of the day, Mike, these guys are making 1415 01:19:47,560 --> 01:19:52,160 Speaker 4: so much, I know, and you can't get that money back. 1416 01:19:52,320 --> 01:19:55,120 Speaker 4: It's not like if you're making fifteen million a year, 1417 01:19:55,800 --> 01:19:58,000 Speaker 4: you're not going to make that up on your next contract. 1418 01:19:58,040 --> 01:20:02,360 Speaker 4: This is not going to happen, so I I can 1419 01:20:03,560 --> 01:20:05,519 Speaker 4: I don't know. That's why. That's why I don't think 1420 01:20:05,560 --> 01:20:07,760 Speaker 4: the players would strike, but a lockout and then the 1421 01:20:07,800 --> 01:20:11,719 Speaker 4: owners just say don't come in, so it could get ugly. 1422 01:20:11,760 --> 01:20:15,240 Speaker 4: It really could, hopefully not, but I agree with you. 1423 01:20:15,280 --> 01:20:18,160 Speaker 4: I mean everything baseball's got a little momentum going now, 1424 01:20:18,479 --> 01:20:20,160 Speaker 4: and all of a sudden, if you shut down for 1425 01:20:20,439 --> 01:20:24,080 Speaker 4: half a season or a full seasons, it could get ugly. 1426 01:20:24,920 --> 01:20:26,960 Speaker 1: Is it all about the salary cap? Is that what 1427 01:20:27,040 --> 01:20:28,040 Speaker 1: this boils down to. 1428 01:20:29,360 --> 01:20:31,760 Speaker 4: I think that's most of it. Yeah, a salary cap. 1429 01:20:31,800 --> 01:20:35,240 Speaker 4: And the players do not want a salary cap. I 1430 01:20:35,240 --> 01:20:38,519 Speaker 4: don't blame them, but the owner's argument is that works 1431 01:20:38,520 --> 01:20:41,439 Speaker 4: in other sports. We need them because of these other teams, 1432 01:20:41,479 --> 01:20:44,040 Speaker 4: the small market teams, the pirates of the world, who 1433 01:20:44,120 --> 01:20:46,559 Speaker 4: just take that luxury tax money and put it in 1434 01:20:46,640 --> 01:20:51,240 Speaker 4: their pocket. And I get it, but there's I don't 1435 01:20:51,240 --> 01:20:55,000 Speaker 4: know that there's any fair way to be of equity. 1436 01:20:55,080 --> 01:20:58,479 Speaker 4: I mean, the Dodgers TV contract is always going to 1437 01:20:58,520 --> 01:21:01,200 Speaker 4: be bigger than the reps up and there's no getting 1438 01:21:01,200 --> 01:21:05,320 Speaker 4: around that. It just is the Yankees too, you know. 1439 01:21:05,400 --> 01:21:08,880 Speaker 4: So it's it's complicated and it's kind of simple at 1440 01:21:08,880 --> 01:21:11,240 Speaker 4: the same time, because you know what the problems are. 1441 01:21:11,240 --> 01:21:12,640 Speaker 4: But I don't think they're going to solve them. I 1442 01:21:12,960 --> 01:21:16,439 Speaker 4: really the players will not go for a soury cap 1443 01:21:16,520 --> 01:21:19,560 Speaker 4: unless I don't know what would make them go for it. 1444 01:21:19,640 --> 01:21:20,879 Speaker 4: But I just don't see it happening. 1445 01:21:21,080 --> 01:21:21,880 Speaker 2: No, I don't either. 1446 01:21:22,080 --> 01:21:22,240 Speaker 4: Boy. 1447 01:21:22,439 --> 01:21:24,520 Speaker 2: I just hope this doesn't come to pass. 1448 01:21:24,880 --> 01:21:26,760 Speaker 4: Let me ask you this spring, Well, we got a 1449 01:21:26,760 --> 01:21:29,000 Speaker 4: whole year to worry about it, so I'm trying not 1450 01:21:29,120 --> 01:21:31,200 Speaker 4: to think about it until the season comes to an end. 1451 01:21:31,240 --> 01:21:32,360 Speaker 2: Just enjoy baseball. 1452 01:21:32,600 --> 01:21:35,280 Speaker 1: Let me ask you this your biggest, uh, I guess 1453 01:21:35,320 --> 01:21:40,040 Speaker 1: surprise of spring training or you know the player that 1454 01:21:40,120 --> 01:21:41,120 Speaker 1: impressed you the most? 1455 01:21:41,160 --> 01:21:41,720 Speaker 2: How about that? 1456 01:21:42,160 --> 01:21:44,960 Speaker 4: Well, I mean I mentioned Matt McClean and I guess 1457 01:21:44,960 --> 01:21:48,280 Speaker 4: that's not a surprise. I think south Stewart will be 1458 01:21:48,360 --> 01:21:50,679 Speaker 4: on this team come opening day. He has really hit 1459 01:21:50,720 --> 01:21:53,720 Speaker 4: the ball. Well, I'm not exactly sure where they're going 1460 01:21:53,760 --> 01:21:57,200 Speaker 4: to play. I guess first base, But he is he is, 1461 01:21:57,760 --> 01:22:00,600 Speaker 4: he really has played well. I'm that's but what I 1462 01:22:00,640 --> 01:22:07,320 Speaker 4: saw with him, that's probably the big thing. Honestly, those guys. 1463 01:22:07,360 --> 01:22:10,280 Speaker 4: The pitching has been what the pitching normally is this 1464 01:22:10,360 --> 01:22:13,080 Speaker 4: time of year. It's ups and downs. Guys, this time 1465 01:22:13,160 --> 01:22:16,160 Speaker 4: is the spring get whatever at that arm period. A 1466 01:22:16,200 --> 01:22:19,080 Speaker 4: little sore here or there, but they'll be fine. But 1467 01:22:19,800 --> 01:22:21,920 Speaker 4: to me, that's the guy who stood out the most 1468 01:22:22,000 --> 01:22:23,120 Speaker 4: so far as South Stewart. 1469 01:22:23,479 --> 01:22:27,320 Speaker 1: Yep, I'll tell you what. Like I said, I'm always optimistic. 1470 01:22:27,400 --> 01:22:29,720 Speaker 1: I certainly am this year, not only just to get 1471 01:22:29,720 --> 01:22:32,280 Speaker 1: in the playoffs, but to get in the playoffs and 1472 01:22:32,320 --> 01:22:33,000 Speaker 1: go a little bit. 1473 01:22:33,080 --> 01:22:35,240 Speaker 2: And you know, I read a thing in that blog 1474 01:22:35,320 --> 01:22:36,120 Speaker 2: Red Machine. 1475 01:22:36,960 --> 01:22:41,160 Speaker 1: They are high on this team, even given what happened 1476 01:22:41,200 --> 01:22:44,799 Speaker 1: to Hunter Green. So anyway, okay, last question we talked. 1477 01:22:44,840 --> 01:22:48,120 Speaker 1: I think it was a couple months ago. I predict 1478 01:22:48,320 --> 01:22:53,000 Speaker 1: ninety wins, again, overly optimistic. Maybe you predicted eighty two wins. 1479 01:22:53,240 --> 01:22:54,320 Speaker 1: Are you sticking with that? 1480 01:22:56,880 --> 01:22:59,160 Speaker 4: I actually will go up a little bit. I'm gonna 1481 01:22:59,160 --> 01:23:00,360 Speaker 4: say eighty five. 1482 01:23:00,640 --> 01:23:04,719 Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, I'm staying pat So if you stayed. 1483 01:23:04,960 --> 01:23:08,640 Speaker 4: If they win ninety Mike, that would be wonderful for 1484 01:23:08,760 --> 01:23:10,479 Speaker 4: this team, then there's no doubt they're going to be 1485 01:23:10,479 --> 01:23:15,080 Speaker 4: in the playoffs. Will I will buy you a beer. 1486 01:23:15,360 --> 01:23:19,799 Speaker 4: I'm just I'm honestly just concerned about the starting pitching 1487 01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:23,240 Speaker 4: depth and these guys going, you know, pitching as much 1488 01:23:23,240 --> 01:23:25,720 Speaker 4: as they're going to have to pitch. That that's kind 1489 01:23:25,760 --> 01:23:28,360 Speaker 4: of the concern I have right now. And I don't 1490 01:23:28,360 --> 01:23:30,679 Speaker 4: want to I don't want guys only going five innings 1491 01:23:30,680 --> 01:23:32,920 Speaker 4: because all of a sudden, then your bullpen is taxed. 1492 01:23:32,920 --> 01:23:35,479 Speaker 4: And you saw that last year. Tony Santy on his 1493 01:23:35,640 --> 01:23:37,200 Speaker 4: arm was about ready to fall off at the end 1494 01:23:37,240 --> 01:23:41,640 Speaker 4: of the season. Get he pitched in eighty games. I 1495 01:23:41,720 --> 01:23:47,280 Speaker 4: want to see this. Yeah, yeah, that's why they they didn't. 1496 01:23:47,320 --> 01:23:49,519 Speaker 4: They haven't pished a whole lot out here. It'll start 1497 01:23:49,560 --> 01:23:52,800 Speaker 4: gearing up now. But you know, there's so many there's 1498 01:23:52,840 --> 01:23:54,800 Speaker 4: so many, so many pitches you can throw a year, 1499 01:23:55,439 --> 01:23:58,439 Speaker 4: and you know they were pretty well taxed last season. 1500 01:23:58,520 --> 01:24:00,639 Speaker 4: That's not including the pitches you throw in the bullpen 1501 01:24:00,680 --> 01:24:01,800 Speaker 4: when you never get in the game. 1502 01:24:02,200 --> 01:24:04,479 Speaker 2: Gotcha, No, I get it. Hey, we're out of time. 1503 01:24:04,520 --> 01:24:06,559 Speaker 1: I hope we can call on you again and looking 1504 01:24:06,600 --> 01:24:10,120 Speaker 1: forward to a great season of Reds baseball and talking 1505 01:24:10,120 --> 01:24:11,360 Speaker 1: to you on the Reds Report. 1506 01:24:12,520 --> 01:24:13,720 Speaker 4: You got it anytime, Mike. 1507 01:24:14,280 --> 01:24:18,240 Speaker 2: Thanks yet, I appreciate it.
