1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:04,560 Speaker 1: Boston's Bulldozer operates seven days a week. The Kuner Report 2 00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:08,039 Speaker 1: weekend edition WRKO The Voice of Boston. 3 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:15,160 Speaker 2: Tampon Tim throws into towel seven nineteen almost seven twenty 4 00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:20,400 Speaker 2: now on the Great WRKO Jeff Cooner Boston's Bulldozer. Okay, 5 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:24,640 Speaker 2: As this Somali fraud scandal now grows and grows and grows, 6 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:30,400 Speaker 2: Tampon Tim Waltz now bows to the inevitable. He says 7 00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:34,920 Speaker 2: he will not be seeking reelection. Amy Klobuchar, the Senator 8 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:39,440 Speaker 2: from Minnesota, now is the speculation is. In fact, it's 9 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:43,280 Speaker 2: being widely reported. She had a conversation with Tampon Tim 10 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:47,199 Speaker 2: yesterday or sorry two days ago forgive me on Sunday, 11 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:51,599 Speaker 2: where she basically urged him to drop out. Looking at 12 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,520 Speaker 2: the poll numbers. He can't win. His approval numbers are 13 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 2: low and getting even lower in the wake of this scandal. 14 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 2: And so she now believes that she can run for 15 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 2: the governorship and win. And of course Waltz will endorse her, 16 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 2: He will support her, He will make sure that the powerful, big, 17 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 2: corrupt Democratic machine will back her all the way. And 18 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 2: of course, to some only community in Minnesota will back 19 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,559 Speaker 2: her all the way, and then she will appoint Tim 20 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:25,679 Speaker 2: Waltz to the US Senate to fill her vacant seat 21 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 2: should she win the election in November. So call it 22 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:34,319 Speaker 2: the Minnesota way. It is a dirty bargain. The question 23 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 2: is will the voters of Minnesota accept it or will 24 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 2: they reject it? Now my question to all of you, 25 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 2: should Tim Waltz forget not running for reelection. Should Tim 26 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 2: Waltz be forced to resign, Should he be indicted, should 27 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 2: he go to jail for his clear involvement and complicity 28 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 2: in this massive twenty billion dollar and growing fraud scandal. 29 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 2: And furthermore, is this just the beginning? Are we just 30 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 2: skimming the surface? Is there this kind of fraud of 31 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 2: taxpayer dollars and all of these huge social programs? Is 32 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 2: it rampant across the entire country. We're seeing it already 33 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 2: in Mississippi, big welfare fraud scandal has been uncovered. At 34 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,519 Speaker 2: seven thirty, I'm going to talk about the latest what's 35 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 2: happening in Massachusetts. You're not gonna believe what's been uncovered 36 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 2: in the last couple of weeks. California. Now people are 37 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 2: saying huge amounts of fraud there. We're looking at maybe 38 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 2: hundreds of billions of dollars. How big is the problem 39 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 2: and should these politicians. 40 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 3: Go to jail? 41 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 2: Aaron in Idaho, you were making I thought a really 42 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 2: a funny point, but a true point, an accurate point, 43 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 2: that you know, the mob that helped build Las Vegas 44 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 2: was as corrupt as these Somalis and as these politicians. Aaron, 45 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 2: please pick up where. 46 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 3: You left off well, as you're mentioning, you know Indian 47 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 3: immigrants are productive. Ironically, I'm staying in a hotel that 48 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 3: are run by Indian immigrants. Now, I've noticed that the 49 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 3: Democrats are nervous as hell this past week. I've never 50 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 3: seen them this scared before. Now here's where I disagree 51 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 3: with you. I don't think they've given Tim walt that 52 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 3: Tennessee Waltz's career is finished because the Democrats are furious 53 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 3: at him, that they have brought this scandal upon them, 54 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 3: and they know it's going to spread like wildfire. You 55 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 3: asked if this is the tip of the iceberg, Jeff, we. 56 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 4: Are thirty eight trillion dollars in debt. The streets should 57 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 4: be paved with gold, but our infrastructure is rotting like 58 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 4: a stale old cookie, and I've asked this for last 59 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 4: twenty years with thirty debt. 60 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 5: What's the money worth? Where did the money go? You 61 00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 5: know what? We're starting to find out. We've been saying 62 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 5: for years, there's been a lot of conspiracy theories. They're 63 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 5: coming true. We've been since Rush Limbaugh's time, have been 64 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 5: saying that there's welfare fraud Democrats, so that's not true. 65 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 5: For years, we've been saying illegal immigrants are getting tax 66 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 5: payer money. That's not true. They've been sending it voting, 67 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 5: that's not true. All of that has come to fruition. 68 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 5: I mean, the Democrats do this four stage thing. Stage 69 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 5: one it's a conspiracy theory. Stage two, maybe it's happening 70 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,679 Speaker 5: a little bit, but it's not a big deal. Stage 71 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 5: three late for the blowback to die down. And then 72 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 5: stage four it's happening and it's a good thing, and 73 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 5: it's for your own good and you just hurt him. 74 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 5: Won't stay in real time there is no Somali fraud. Okay, 75 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:42,559 Speaker 5: there is Somali fraud, but that's not a big deal. 76 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 5: And then he just goes, you know what, we need 77 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 5: more Somali. He just saw Stay one through four. 78 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 3: In real time, you nailed. 79 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,919 Speaker 2: It, Aaron. I swear you absolutely nailed it. Aaron. Let 80 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 2: me ask you this, do you think this is going 81 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 2: to hurt Democrats politically this year, especially going into the 82 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:03,280 Speaker 2: midterm elections? In other words, can Republicans beat the Democrats 83 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 2: and win back the governorship in Minnesota? And there's also 84 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 2: a Senate campaign as well, in other words, maybe even 85 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,839 Speaker 2: take a Senate seat. Can the Republicans make political hay 86 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 2: out of this? 87 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,719 Speaker 5: It's the Republicans they should make political hay out of this. 88 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 5: But we know the Republicans are terrible at messaging. I 89 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 5: remember our Senator Chris Murphy, that psychotic senator. He was 90 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 5: on MS seed two years ago where he said undocumented 91 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 5: Americans are his favorite Americans. The guy admitted illegal immigrants 92 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 5: are his favorite even more than American citizens. Said the Republicans, 93 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,840 Speaker 5: there's your attack, ad they still don't want to do that. 94 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 5: Your other question is will the people of Minnesota finally 95 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 5: vote Republicans? I don't know, and I'll tell you why. Jeff. Portland, Oregon, 96 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 5: which is very close to here. In Portland, Oregon's full 97 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 5: of homeless people, Drugs everywhere, fentanyl everywhere. I remember I 98 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 5: saw a local news story where a woman was complaining 99 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,359 Speaker 5: that homeless people were breaking into her house over and 100 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 5: over and over again. Unless she said she was angry 101 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:03,919 Speaker 5: at the mayor of Portland and she was angry at 102 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 5: the Democrats. The report flat out aster, are you going 103 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,359 Speaker 5: to vote Republican? And she says, oh, I'm never voting 104 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 5: for those Nazis. I'm still going to vote for the mayor. Okay. 105 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 6: So this woman acknowledges her house been broken into multiple 106 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:18,119 Speaker 6: times by homeless people, she knows that the Democrat's fault, 107 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 6: but she still don't vote Democrats. So I don't have 108 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 6: a whole lot of faith that Minnesota's gonna flip blue 109 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 6: or just Portland. 110 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 5: Oregon is that far away. But with Jeff's one more 111 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 5: thing super fast, it's not just you. The politicians can 112 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 5: be cowards. We have a local REA talk show host 113 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 5: Your and Boys named Nate Showman. He interviewed two of 114 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 5: our congressmen, both of them Republicans, during the government shutdown, 115 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 5: and he asked a very simple question, which was, Hey, 116 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 5: are you guys still getting your paychecks during this government shutdown? 117 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 5: One congressman said no, I'm what's holding my paycheck? And 118 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 5: the other one said, well, yes, of course I'm getting paid, 119 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,279 Speaker 5: and his follow up question is, well why should you 120 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 5: get paid? 121 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 2: Well, Eric, the other one does you know, doesn't and 122 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:07,479 Speaker 2: he probably didn't like the question. I mean, that's they're 123 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 2: so sleezy. I'm telling you, Aaron, they're so sleezy it's unbelievable. 124 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 1: You're locked into Boston's Bulldozer. The Kooner Report weekend edition, 125 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: The Voice of Boston w RKO
