He passed away 46 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:40,679 Speaker 2: on this date, October of twenty twenty two, and I 47 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 2: had the distinct pleasure thanks to my friend Steve Murray, 48 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 2: retired career military.

He was a listener 63 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 2: lunch at Jim and Jackson the River, and he has 64 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 2: a Shenanigans declaration to declare against the Clerk of Courts. 65 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 2: My understanding from my brief conversation with the judge, there's 66 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 2: a secret docket. Felony murder cases are not shown on 67 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 2: the regular Clerk of Courts docket, which I think that's 68 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 2: a violation of the open records meetings. And how can 69 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 2: you know what's going on? Local reporters might not know 70 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 2: that there's a felony murder trial going on. You think 71 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 2: they might want to report on that. Well, you can't 72 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 2: report on something if you don't know it's on the docket. 73 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 2: I'm actually part of me is hoping that I'm wrong 74 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 2: on my recollection of Judge mcdowall's you know, comments to 75 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 2: me along those lines. We're going to hear from him 76 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 2: at eight thirty. So it seems like a pretty decent 77 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 2: guy from my perspective. So eight thirty for that. What 78 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,039 Speaker 2: else is going on? Well, again, the government shutdown, how 79 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 2: are you feeling about that? And no progress is being made? 80 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 2: You hear at the top of the Oro News Rakim Jeffricks. 81 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 2: People are going to die. Well, people are going to die. 82 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 2: It's only because well, you're going to cause them to die. 83 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:36,720 Speaker 2: Who put the deadline for the premium supplements in the 84 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 2: original bill that was passed because of COVID nineteen. And 85 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,359 Speaker 2: I think what the Democrats are waiting for is because 86 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 2: we're heading toward open enrollment with Obamacare, that people are 87 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,599 Speaker 2: going to finally appreciate and see what it's like without 88 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:58,160 Speaker 2: these texts, without the tax incentives that were given by 89 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:02,160 Speaker 2: the Democrats way when COVID nineteen was around set to 90 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,280 Speaker 2: expire at the end of this year, because that's the 91 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 2: way they wrote it. Who's responsible for death? If we're 92 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 2: all going to die? One could argue it's the Democrats, 93 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,720 Speaker 2: one could argue, but one could also appoint to the 94 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 2: position the Republicans are in. Looking, we're planning on extending 95 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 2: twenty twenty four funding levels. We've got it in the 96 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:22,840 Speaker 2: Continuing Resolution. Those are your Democrats funding levels. What's wrong 97 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 2: with is moving along as we are on the status 98 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,279 Speaker 2: quo until we get things worked out. Democrats are demanding 99 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 2: the Republicans so either legislatively, which is their version of 100 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 2: the Continuing Resolution, continue well these supplements apparently to the 101 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:44,799 Speaker 2: ten of one point five trillion dollars see increasing federal 102 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 2: allays one point five trillion dollars. Yeah, that's not the 103 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 2: direction we need to go. So they made no progress 104 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,720 Speaker 2: at all, and they keep arguing in circles. Republicans are 105 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 2: firming their position, and I think they have a better argument. 106 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 2: It's been well explained anybody bothering to look at it 107 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 2: that the language of the Democrats bill specifically strikes out 108 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 2: the one big beautiful provisions which prohibit illegal immigrants from 109 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 2: getting aid. It says it in black and white. And 110 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,359 Speaker 2: they keep going back and forth like American people are 111 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 2: going to lose their health care now, No, we're just 112 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 2: moving forward the original plan. Anyway. Kevin Hasse had said 113 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 2: yesterday that, well, you can expect layoffs to start coming 114 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 2: your way. Head of the National Economic Council. I think 115 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 2: if the President decides that the negotiations are absolutely going nowhere, 116 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:44,280 Speaker 2: which i'll interject seen to be where we are, then 117 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 2: there will start to be layoffs. But I think that 118 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 2: everybody's still hopeful then when we get a fresh start 119 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 2: at the beginning of the week that's today, that we 120 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 2: can get the Democrats to see that it's just common 121 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 2: sense to avoid layoffs like that, to avoid the fifteen 122 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 2: billion dollars a week, the Council of Economic Advisors said, 123 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 2: will harm g if we have a shutdown. Talk about 124 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 2: the power of the federal government and as an impact spending. 125 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 2: If you believe the gross domestic product figure fifteen billion 126 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 2: dollars of reduced gross domestic product because the government isn't 127 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 2: working at least not the full capacity, that's a lot 128 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 2: of that's a lot of impact on the economy. Going 129 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 2: back to that joke I've made time and time again. 130 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 2: You get the wide eyed I'm going to fix Washington, 131 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 2: DC politician, I'm going there. Mister Smith goes to Washington 132 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 2: and they take him in the back room and they say, 133 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 2: you know what, you think you're going to fix it. 134 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 2: You think you're going to drain the swamp. You think 135 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 2: you're going to reduce the size and scope of government, 136 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 2: But in fact, government makes the economy go. We create economies, 137 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 2: we create new regulations and rules. Do you think there 138 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 2: really needs to be an accounting economy out there? You 139 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 2: could fix the irs. The income tax code, it's thousands 140 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 2: and thousands of pages, which ultimately results in the employment 141 00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 2: of thousands and thousands of certified public accountant and entire 142 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 2: legal teams of corporations. Why because we got to figure 143 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 2: out what's in the tax code, and that takes time 144 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 2: and it takes money, which creates an economy. If you 145 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 2: could do the old simple play, just for example, I know, 146 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 2: fair tax, flat taxes, all kinds of proposals out there, 147 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 2: but we eliminate the tax code down a virtually nothing. 148 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 2: Fill out a postcard size tax return. You made X, 149 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 2: here is fifteen percent of X. That's what you owe. 150 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 2: There are no ride offs done, end the story. There's 151 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 2: no need for an accountants. How much how many billions 152 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:33,559 Speaker 2: of dollars do you think will be taken out of 153 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 2: the account of the economy if we just simplified the 154 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 2: tax code to that level, that minimalist level, right, I 155 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 2: guess that's the point of fifteen billion dollars a week 156 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 2: with the government shutdown. It's make work. It's like carbon capture. 157 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:53,319 Speaker 2: It didn't exist, flip the switch. It exists, and now 158 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:57,319 Speaker 2: the entire world is creating this new economy because some 159 00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 2: regulation on the book said we need to capture car 160 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 2: carbon dioxide plant food. Can you imagine the overall extent 161 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:09,679 Speaker 2: and expense that that one little pronouncement carbon dioxide is 162 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 2: a pollutant. What that did to the world's economy. We've 163 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:17,839 Speaker 2: been at this for years. Industries have been built on that. 164 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 2: What if they didn't have that pronouncement. You think we'd 165 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 2: be okay? Economically speaking? Would people find something else to 166 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 2: do rather than creating a brand new whole cloth industry 167 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 2: based upon basically a boiled down to a single regulation. 168 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 2: Sometimes I really truly believe government is in the business 169 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 2: of doing just that. I really do. That's how our 170 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 2: government's gotten so big. But going over to Hakeem Jeffords 171 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 2: on this shutdown, everyone is about to experience dramatically increased premiums, copays, 172 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:58,959 Speaker 2: and deductibles because of the Republican healthcare crisis. Oh so 173 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 2: now we're responding for the health care crisis generally. Huh. Well, 174 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 2: behind that statement is Obamacare in and of itself. You 175 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 2: started to rely on, I suppose, supported by these well 176 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 2: insane COVID nineteen era assistance payments, you get people making 177 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 2: quite quite a bit of money. Sixty five hundred dollars 178 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,559 Speaker 2: was the four hundred percent of poverty level cutoff, and 179 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,199 Speaker 2: it didn't exist anymore.

Did people die before we got the subsidies 184 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 2: under COVID nineteen legislation? 185 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:49,439 Speaker 1: Yeah? 186 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 2: I didn't think so. I didn't hear anyone arguing that. 187 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:56,960 Speaker 2: And when they passed the original legislation, wasn't it designed 188 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 2: to save everybody, to get people healthcare Obamacare? 189 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 1: Good? 190 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 3: Uh? 191 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 2: Five sixteen fifty five KRC Detalk station.

Oh wow, one hundred Yeah, one hundred and 214 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,960 Speaker 4: thirteen out of one hundred and seventy five showed up. 215 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 4: It was our largest reunion ever, and we enjoyed an 216 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 4: evening of fun, food, beverages of all stripes, laughter, reminiscence, 217 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 4: and shared stories of life, work, and especially family. The 218 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 4: camaraderie and mutual respect that defined the event was palpable 219 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 4: and noted by to be special by the spouses who 220 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 4: had not experienced what my classmates and I'm sure many 221 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 4: other classes in the sixties and seventies possessed a true 222 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,319 Speaker 4: love for the people we went to learn with. A 223 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 4: significant part of the evening involved discussing how much has 224 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:58,319 Speaker 4: changed in fifty years. In the seventies, the seat of 225 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 4: progressivism planted in the early twentieth century had only just 226 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 4: started to bear fruit. So we gained an education in 227 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,679 Speaker 4: rather traditional manner while growing up in stable, two parent 228 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:15,840 Speaker 4: home with rules and expectations. In the past fifty years, 229 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 4: progressives have successfully infiltrated all the major institutions of society 230 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:25,959 Speaker 4: and destroyed everything that it touches. They have destroyed the 231 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 4: institution of marriage, the nuclear family, journalism, and made civility optional. 232 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 4: They mock God and Christianity while defending barbaric religious fanatics 233 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 4: who had destroyed them for their beliefs. Education has become 234 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:47,679 Speaker 4: a giant psio to create mind numbed robots to carry 235 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 4: on the destruction of societal norms. They have defecated on 236 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 4: the constitution and tried to destroy those who defend it. 237 00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 4: Reagan's shining Light on the Hill has been relegated to 238 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 4: the asses of the Pacific Palisades and the war torn 239 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,640 Speaker 4: cities run by the criminals put in power by the clueless. 240 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 4: Please people followed the wise advice of Tom and friends 241 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,080 Speaker 4: and don't vote Democrat. 242 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 1: Thank you. 243 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 2: Al Well stated, well, you really must have been tournamentally 244 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 2: at two thirty this morning, but beautifully written. I think 245 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 2: I have no objection to what your observed and observations are. 246 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 1: How could I. 247 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 2: I'm just behind you a little bit. I haven't read 248 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 2: to reach fifty in terms of class reunions. But of 249 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 2: course I'll catch up at some juncture. But you're right, 250 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 2: and it may see to me moving faster and faster. 251 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 2: And who do we have to blame for that? Obviously 252 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 2: it's social media, there is no question about it. These 253 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 2: thoughts and ideas, these leftists, the rantings and ramblings of leftism, 254 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 2: were you know, kept amongst themselves. You had to actually 255 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 2: engage in an ongoing effort to reach out and coordinate 256 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 2: that message. Of course, you had the Vietnam War as 257 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 2: an impetus to get people of a variety of different 258 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 2: political stripes to protest against the war. There are a 259 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 2: number of reasons that one could argue and justify protesting 260 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 2: against it, especially with hindsight. But then at the same time, 261 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 2: the green newt of the green agenda was kicking off. 262 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 2: That was back when we were going to be frozen 263 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 2: to death because the next ice age was coming thanks 264 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 2: to our pollution. Boy the world's changed on that. But 265 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 2: those forces joined and you had a variety of other 266 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 2: leftist forces going on that joined in these movements, so 267 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 2: we've made them fear bigger, and of course different ideas 268 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 2: coordinating together in a general perception of protest against the government. 269 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 2: What's going on right now, it's the same thing, anti Jewish, 270 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 2: anti Israel, pro Palestinian, two state solution folks joining in 271 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 2: with the carbon alarmist and the Greta Thunbergs of the 272 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 2: world protesting. Yeah, and of course you can protest the 273 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 2: war going on between Russia and Ukraine, and of course 274 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 2: you can protest Israel and Gaza. All these forces they 275 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 2: don't have the same message, but it's anti current status. 276 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 2: It's anti anti anti fully funded, coordinated, and it's made 277 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 2: it so easy with social media. You get a couple 278 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 2: of multi billionaires that are willing to fund these efforts. 279 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 2: They pay protesters. We know that that gets more warm 280 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 2: bodies there, giving the appearance that this message is the 281 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 2: popular message. It draws television cameras because there's, oh my god, 282 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 2: the protesters, look at what they're saying. Yeah, it's it's 283 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 2: clickbait for the news media. They love when there's violence 284 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 2: and distress and anger and dissent in the streets. Gives 285 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 2: them something fun to click on. A report on Heavily Coordinated. 286 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 2: Heavily Coordinated, it says, you can get the entire nation 287 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 2: into one room with one message at a time through 288 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 2: social media that never existed back in the period of 289 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 2: time Al's talking about. And yet look what happened. It slowly, 290 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 2: little by little work, the Left will take their tiny 291 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 2: baby step of victory going full long term that the well, 292 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,640 Speaker 2: it's like the Chinese one hundred year Plan or something. 293 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 2: They're willing to wait for it. Ji Jinping will be 294 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,119 Speaker 2: dead before his vision is realized, but his vision is 295 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 2: put on paper. That's the view of Marxist Left, this 296 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 2: socialist and has always been. They'll continue to fight capitalism 297 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 2: and their message will continue long after they're gone. As 298 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 2: long as we get those baby steps toward that unified 299 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:30,440 Speaker 2: global control over our lives vision that they see, it's 300 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,640 Speaker 2: going to continue. It's up to us to fight back. 301 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 2: It's up for us to be the Charlie Kirks of 302 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:42,199 Speaker 2: the world.

They say 341 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 2: one person's been detained. No other additional information. Jeez, Louise, 342 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 2: let's go to the phone.

Good morning, Good morning, 357 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 7: Christopher Smithman who says he listens from five to nine, so, 358 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 7: and good morning to your lovely wife, Paulette. 359 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 3: Uh. 360 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:27,399 Speaker 7: We we talked about this thing with the money and 361 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:32,160 Speaker 7: and and I absolutely believe that money is behind pretty 362 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:36,920 Speaker 7: much everything that politicians do. And these people who quote 363 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:42,640 Speaker 7: unquote represent us. You're you talked about the health insurance. 364 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 7: As you know, I used the iHeart app to go 365 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 7: back and listen to stuff that I missed throughout the week, 366 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 7: and and I caught your last week. Early last week, 367 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 7: he had a bit of a rant about, uh these subsidies. 368 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 7: I think it was right before the shutdown. Uh, and 369 00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:00,159 Speaker 7: how these uh these subsidies are gonna go away, and 370 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,159 Speaker 7: oh my god, everyone's going to die as far as 371 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 7: Democrats are concerned. And they start thinking about if the 372 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,640 Speaker 7: Democrats got what they wanted, if it went the way 373 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 7: the Democrats wanted, the government would pay a bunch of 374 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:18,639 Speaker 7: subsidies towards health insurance premiums, is it? 375 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:19,479 Speaker 1: Do I have that right? 376 00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:19,880 Speaker 4: So far? 377 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 1: Yeah? 378 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:24,120 Speaker 2: On Obamacare the cutoff is four hundred percent of poverty. 379 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 2: COVID nineteen shows up. They get rid of the cap 380 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 2: at four hundred percent of poverty, so everyone, including people 381 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,440 Speaker 2: making a whole lot of money, can get a rite 382 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 2: off on that. So basically they're not feeling the pain 383 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 2: of the premium. 384 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 4: Well. 385 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 7: And then, and what happens there is that since these 386 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:44,439 Speaker 7: health insurance companies know that government money is being pumped 387 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 7: into the system, they check their prices up right, So, 388 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 7: and then the people who are being allegedly covered by this, 389 00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 7: the policies are terrible. The out of pocket expense is ridiculous. 390 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 7: You got, you know, five, six, eight, ten thousand or 391 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:07,440 Speaker 7: more dollars deductibles before your insurance even kicks in. So 392 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 7: it sounds to me like the people that are being 393 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:16,200 Speaker 7: allegedly covered are paying more money, a lot of money 394 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 7: for just basic health care. And then the companies who 395 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 7: are being benefited by these subsidies are making that bank right, 396 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:29,120 Speaker 7: Am I getting that right? 397 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 2: Well, you can make that argument, but my understanding of 398 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 2: the problem with Obamacare, it's become the like the insurer 399 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 2: of last resort. You know, obviously there's no pre existing 400 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 2: condition exclusion. You can get insurance, and a lot of 401 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 2: people that are really really really really sick and up 402 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 2: in Obamacare, meaning their claims are a whole lot higher, 403 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:54,920 Speaker 2: so the payout from government is rising. I mean you 404 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 2: might imagine that that makes perfect sense. It's like, you know, 405 00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 2: if you live in a hurricane zone, your insurance premium, 406 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 2: your home insurance is going to be a whole lot 407 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 2: more because your risk is a lot higher. But you 408 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 2: can't you can't deal with that with Obamacare because the 409 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:12,679 Speaker 2: premiums are are kind of capped up to a certain amount, so. 410 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:16,120 Speaker 7: Well, they're capped for as far as what the patients 411 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 7: are concerned or or totally. Because there's money. There's money 412 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 7: changing hands, Brian. Money is flowing and even even if 413 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:28,159 Speaker 7: it's not actual green dollar bills, even if it's just 414 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 7: digital you know on the computer, money is moving around 415 00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:36,400 Speaker 7: and it's certainly not going to the patients. It's going 416 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:39,920 Speaker 7: to these these corporations. A lot of it is going 417 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 7: to them, and I and I'm guessing there may be 418 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 7: some kickbacks involved in these people who are making these decisions. 419 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:51,919 Speaker 7: But here's the irony for me. Democrats are worried about 420 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:55,919 Speaker 7: the patients, the people, and and and and they're also 421 00:23:56,400 --> 00:24:02,199 Speaker 7: spewing hatred towards billionaires. Yet they're they're system is making 422 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 7: these rich people more rich. That's the way it seems 423 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,720 Speaker 7: to me. I know that's very simplistic way of looking 424 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 7: at it, but that's pretty much what it boils down to. 425 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 7: And of course you have rhinos who are involved in 426 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,439 Speaker 7: this too, and they're not gonna complain about it because 427 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:21,120 Speaker 7: they or their buddies or pals are getting rich as well, 428 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 7: while we out here, us unwashed masses, are forking over 429 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 7: more and more money. My daughter, I don't think she 430 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 7: has a bobecue, but she has one of those policies 431 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 7: that doesn't cover a whole lot unless you really have 432 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:37,479 Speaker 7: a problem. But if you try to use it at 433 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 7: an emergency room or something, man, it's ridiculous how much 434 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 7: money you got to for cood. Oh yeah, none of 435 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 7: these things are helping us. Whatever the Democrats are screaming 436 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:50,119 Speaker 7: for are not helping anyone except for the people who 437 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 7: are getting richer. And they want to claim that the 438 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 7: rich people are the problem. They want to tax the rich. 439 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 7: The rich are sitting back going you go ahead and 440 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:00,639 Speaker 7: use you that slogan all you want, because we know 441 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 7: that behind the scenes we're getting richer and richer and richer. 442 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 7: We all we do is getting more money. So keep 443 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 7: up the good work, don't. We don't care what you say. 444 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 7: Just and this is what's going on. It's it's a 445 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 7: it's a smoke screen, and it's a like a little 446 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 7: magic trick, like a little three card money. And they 447 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,360 Speaker 7: want the Democrats want you to believe that they give 448 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 7: a crap about you, and they don't. They don't care 449 00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 7: about you. And and thank you Alan for saying it. 450 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:32,400 Speaker 7: I'll say it again. Don't vote Rhino and don't vote Democrat. 451 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 2: Have a great day, Brian, you do the same as 452 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,159 Speaker 2: good to hear from you.

If people don't realize 472 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,639 Speaker 5: that we're in the midst of a culture revolution, just 473 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:45,080 Speaker 5: go ahead and take your wife any evening and walk 474 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 5: down the streets of Cincinnati. 475 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:51,919 Speaker 1: Unarmed and tell me you feel safe. 476 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:56,200 Speaker 2: Well, I would know that I probably wasn't going to 477 00:26:56,280 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 2: feel safe before actually going into downtown Cincinnati. The fact 478 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 2: that I know that I may be unsafe would necessitate 479 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 2: me carrying my firearm there, and of course that I 480 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 2: wouldn't enter into that situation. But that that's me Bobby, 481 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 2: But yeah, I think we are definitely in the throes 482 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:17,120 Speaker 2: of a cultural revolution. Who could who couldn't say? Who 483 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 2: couldn't agree with that? Bobby, Look at where we are. 484 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:22,400 Speaker 2: We've entered the realm of batcrap insane. 485 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 1: I had an individual tell me, well, Bob, it's normal. 486 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 5: It's what happens all the time down Cincinnati. 487 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 1: And I told him one thing, The only thing normal. 488 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,680 Speaker 5: About Cincinnati is when you go into the utility room 489 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 5: and you look at the dryer and it says normal. 490 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,639 Speaker 1: That's it. Nothing else is normal about it. 491 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, there was certainly a period of time where I 492 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:46,400 Speaker 2: never would have thought about and I don't think it's 493 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,120 Speaker 2: a likely thing it would. If it was likely, we'd 494 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 2: be reading about it the whole time. But you know, 495 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 2: Holly getting punched in the face. That someone would beat 496 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 2: someone up and they have no connection with whatsoever. Someone 497 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:02,119 Speaker 2: is rent aid. Out of nowhere, someone flies out and 498 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,400 Speaker 2: punches them. We've seen other illustrations of this. Some people 499 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:07,960 Speaker 2: are just mining their own business, walking down the street. 500 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 2: Next thing you know, out of nowhere, a left hook 501 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 2: knocking them flat on the ground and knocking them out. 502 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 2: I mean, there was no connection with the person who 503 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 2: threw the punch. That's become a more frequent phenomenon, this 504 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 2: idea that it's just okay to kill somebody. Think about 505 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 2: that woman who got stabbed on the subway train. She 506 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:27,119 Speaker 2: was balled up, just paying attention to her cell phone. 507 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,639 Speaker 2: She wasn't engaged in a confrontation with that guy. He 508 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:31,360 Speaker 2: just stabbed her in the neck and she dropped dead. 509 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 2: That's the kind of thing. And I know it makes headlines. 510 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 2: I know it's clickbait. It's because it's so outrageous that 511 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 2: we can't believe our own eyes. But you know, if 512 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 2: that's it seems to be happening more and more, or 513 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 2: maybe because going back to social media, the internet, the 514 00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 2: instantaneous reality, everything that bad it happens in the world 515 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 2: is presented to us real time, so we think the 516 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 2: whole place is spiraling out of control. That's the only 517 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 2: counter narrative to your conclusion, Bobby, is just that now 518 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:01,240 Speaker 2: it's always been sort of like this, but we never 519 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 2: heard about what's going on in Poughkeepsie, Iowa locally when 520 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 2: someone got punched for no reason. Now it's right there 521 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:09,760 Speaker 2: as a headlines in a national press. Look, so and 522 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 2: so got punched in the face for no reason. They're 523 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 2: in the hospital. They died to go fund me some 524 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:16,480 Speaker 2: accountsmen set up. You know, it seems like it's literally 525 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:18,480 Speaker 2: happening all the time. So you got to figure it 526 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 2: out for yourself. Is it really getting that much worse 527 00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 2: or are we just seeing it more because of well 528 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 2: the Internet. I think maybe a little bit of both. 529 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:30,880 Speaker 2: Bobby could be quite honest with you. Let's see what 530 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 2: I gotta get Chris in here for this segment soever, Chris, 531 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 2: thanks for calling this morning.

And I'm the same thing I'm saying 573 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 3: about violence. And I understand what people say that they 574 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,480 Speaker 3: look at TV and they think violence is going on 575 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 3: twenty four hours a day, every minute, and every day. 576 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 1: It's not like that. 577 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 3: You got a few individuals that's causing the problem. It's 578 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 3: not the whole community. It's not a lot of black people. 579 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:25,080 Speaker 3: It's not a lot of white people. It's not a 580 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 3: lot of Mexicans or Africans or are whatever. 581 00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 1: It's not. 582 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 3: It's not happening like that. I feel comfortable walking in 583 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 3: any neighborhood in the city. I don't carry a firearm. 584 00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 3: I got fourteen of them, but I don't care e 585 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 3: none of them because I feel safe now. I believe me, 586 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 3: I know my surroundings, and I know when the individual 587 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 3: is not acting right. 588 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,040 Speaker 1: I move myself from the situation right. 589 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 3: And that's simple as that. And I appreciate the way 590 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 3: that you had worded it and the reason I called you. 591 00:32:56,240 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 3: I called to get educated because I purposely listen over 592 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:03,720 Speaker 3: the last couple of weeks at your callers and everything 593 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:07,000 Speaker 3: like that, and everything I have heard was it was 594 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 3: no solutions. Everything has been a bit of anger of 595 00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 3: what's going on on it. I'm an independent. Let me 596 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 3: say this, and I and I lean more towards the 597 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 3: Democrats apt because of the abortion thing. I'm gonna leave 598 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:26,120 Speaker 3: that alone. But my whole, my whole thing is this. 599 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 3: I always wanted to hear solutions. I don't call if 600 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 3: I don't have somewhat of a solution. But when I 601 00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 3: hear that no one has a solution, but you're angry 602 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 3: at something that I've still trying to figure out. What 603 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 3: when I when I can hear what a person anger at, 604 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 3: then I can say, okay, I have to understand. I 605 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 3: can go look for myself and see why they're angry. 606 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:52,880 Speaker 3: But there's never a solution. And all of my accidents 607 00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 3: for the callers to educate me, educate me. I'm an 608 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 3: independent leading towards democrat. Bring me over to the Republican side. 609 00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 3: And about a week ago you had said that you know, 610 00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 3: sometimes is when a situation comes that you can bring 611 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:11,080 Speaker 3: a Democrat or independent over. Bring them over. This is 612 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:13,919 Speaker 3: the time I act some people to do. Now, bring 613 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 3: me over. Give me something that why I should not 614 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:23,840 Speaker 3: ever vote Democrats are independent, and let me hear this 615 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 3: for myself, and I will come to your station and say, listen, 616 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 3: I'm coming over, but I haven't heard it yet. 617 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:32,400 Speaker 2: Well, you're right, and you know, the the tougher the 618 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 2: quote unquote perceived problem, the more likely it is someone's 619 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:39,320 Speaker 2: going to gravitate towards demanding the government answer that you 620 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 2: provide this so called solution. We got a problem with healthcare, Obamacare, 621 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:47,399 Speaker 2: the solution. Now the Obamacare has become the problem under 622 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:51,319 Speaker 2: the current argument over premiums. Premiums that were well, these 623 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 2: subsidies suspended because COVID nineteen became a problem. So, by god, 624 00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 2: we can't charge everyone the full freight for the Obamacare 625 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,839 Speaker 2: on premium, So we're going to suspend that. People start 626 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,800 Speaker 2: embracing that, and they get used to having the premium suspended. 627 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,959 Speaker 2: It's sort of defying logic and reason. The premiums didn't 628 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:10,920 Speaker 2: go away. It's just that fred U as a taxpayer 629 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 2: and me as a taxpayer, and all of the taxpayers 630 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,720 Speaker 2: are now basically shouldering the burden of paying the premium. 631 00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:18,759 Speaker 2: The government solution to COVID was to get rid of it. 632 00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:21,320 Speaker 2: The problem now, the problem is getting rid of it 633 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:24,240 Speaker 2: is the problem. I mean, we keep chasing our tails. 634 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:25,440 Speaker 1: I go to it. 635 00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, go ahead, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, go ahead, No, no, 636 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:31,000 Speaker 2: I mean interject. I mean we're having a free form 637 00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 2: conversation here. Fred. I don't think I have the other 638 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:34,440 Speaker 2: answers to what you're saying. 639 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:39,440 Speaker 3: But oh, okay, okay, to Obamacare. I'm not saying that 640 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:42,480 Speaker 3: that that's the greatest thing in the world. But my 641 00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:45,520 Speaker 3: whole thing is, once again, give me something to replace 642 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:46,840 Speaker 3: it better than what it is. 643 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:47,399 Speaker 1: That's all. 644 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:50,120 Speaker 3: I'm my accident. I don't like it, believe me that 645 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 3: I do. I don't like it, but something is better 646 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 3: than nothing at all. And once we get to this, well, 647 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 3: you know, the government didn't shut down, and he's saying 648 00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:03,280 Speaker 3: that the Democrats wanted to. You have immigrants from New Zealand, 649 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 3: New Zealand, Africa, Asia all over the country. 650 00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:12,239 Speaker 1: It's not just Mexicans, of course not yeah, no, no, yeah, And. 651 00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:15,600 Speaker 3: I'm not saying that we should be affording to be 652 00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 3: able for of them. But we've stuck on these Mexicans 653 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:21,720 Speaker 3: for some reason, I don't know why, but we stuck 654 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:23,759 Speaker 3: on there. But we got people from all over the 655 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:27,280 Speaker 3: world here. It is there calls and problems. 656 00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:31,279 Speaker 2: Also, And here's where I'll disagree. I think it is 657 00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 2: objectively any illegal immigrants anywhere. It has nothing to do 658 00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:38,800 Speaker 2: with Mexico. It is happening to be closer approximately to 659 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:41,480 Speaker 2: US than any other country. And they also happen to 660 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:44,880 Speaker 2: have an economy that once that suggests that their people 661 00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,520 Speaker 2: would be better served in the United States. One of 662 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 2: the drivers of that is that they are hooked up 663 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 2: to the umbilical court of the social welfare safety net. 664 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:56,359 Speaker 2: They are entitled to free education, apparently, free medical. They 665 00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:58,840 Speaker 2: get government services which you and I are paying for. 666 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:01,000 Speaker 2: That's the line of the saying that most people say, 667 00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:02,960 Speaker 2: I don't care if it's going to a Mexican or 668 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 2: someone from Africa, or maybe even a Northern European person 669 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:10,319 Speaker 2: who snuck into the country illegally. It shouldn't be that way. 670 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:14,800 Speaker 2: That carrots shouldn't be there. Our taxpayers suggest that we 671 00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 2: are supporting the American population with those government resources. But 672 00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:20,760 Speaker 2: the minute you open that up to the entire world, 673 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 2: which we saw during the Obama administration, we find out 674 00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:28,880 Speaker 2: that the costs are overwhelming. So American citizens with American 675 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:31,680 Speaker 2: taxpayer dollars supporting this are being deprived of some of 676 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:34,279 Speaker 2: the various services they think their taxpayer dollars are going for. 677 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:38,919 Speaker 2: Enter outrage, enter an awareness of a problem that didn't 678 00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 2: exist before twenty million people just flew into the United States. 679 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:45,080 Speaker 2: So yeah, this has nothing to do with Mexico. Fred 680 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:46,799 Speaker 2: I agree with you completely and to the extent. 681 00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 3: Okay, I agree with you and the the last two 682 00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 3: things and my whole thing once again, it's for education. Also, 683 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:55,320 Speaker 3: when I was coming up in school, everyone wouldn't go 684 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 3: into college, and they knew they wasn't gone to college. 685 00:37:57,160 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 3: So we had block classes. You learn automotive fuel, learn paining, 686 00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:04,720 Speaker 3: you learn anything dealing with uh, something that you definitely 687 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:08,840 Speaker 3: wouldn't going to college. Trades basically a trade school. 688 00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:09,280 Speaker 1: Basically. 689 00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:09,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 690 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:12,080 Speaker 3: And so when they took that out of school, and 691 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:14,200 Speaker 3: and and and they took. 692 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,600 Speaker 1: And made individual say, Okay. 693 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:18,319 Speaker 3: You go through twelve years of school, they need they 694 00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:20,920 Speaker 3: put you out of school, but you've never learned the trade. 695 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:22,160 Speaker 1: You people going to college. 696 00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,600 Speaker 3: So now now they talking about putting trade school back 697 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:27,520 Speaker 3: in schools. Wouldn't you should never took it out from the. 698 00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 2: Beginning, Amen, Fred, I'm with you. 699 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,840 Speaker 3: They're going it happened back over stuff. 700 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I just say, And what happened when they 701 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:37,439 Speaker 2: took trades out of the school. That's when everybody starts 702 00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 2: demonizing the whole idea of trade, like you know, making 703 00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:43,320 Speaker 2: blittling hard work. Oh, you need to go to a college, 704 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:45,480 Speaker 2: get a college education. Now, No, no, no, it's not 705 00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:48,239 Speaker 2: for everybody. It's it's there's an opportunity out there to 706 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:51,120 Speaker 2: not be in debt, get a job, hitting the ground running. 707 00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:53,759 Speaker 2: Why did they eradicate that ease with which we made 708 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:58,279 Speaker 2: that concept with the trade schools, Diamond Oak, Scarlet Oak, 709 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:00,040 Speaker 2: some of the other ones, vocational training. I mean, and 710 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:01,719 Speaker 2: you know it used to exist. You're right, Fred, And 711 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,520 Speaker 2: I don't know why it disappeared, but at least embrace 712 00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:07,200 Speaker 2: the reality it's coming back. If for no other reason, 713 00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:08,960 Speaker 2: a lot of people realize their jobs are going to 714 00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:14,319 Speaker 2: be eradicated by artificial intelligence. AI can't plumb, AI can't 715 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 2: do wiring, et cetera, et cetera. Fred, I love hearing 716 00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:19,800 Speaker 2: from you, man. I appreciate your comments. I truly do 717 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:24,040 Speaker 2: and let us all reach our own conclusion politically thinking 718 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 2: about it ourselves and analyzing the problems and issues of 719 00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:26,959 Speaker 2: the world. 720 00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 9: Stick around. 721 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:28,920 Speaker 2: We got more to talk about coming up the top 722 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:30,600 Speaker 2: of the our news, Jay, I will take your call 723 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:32,440 Speaker 2: right out of the gate. I apologize couldn't get to it, 724 00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:36,560 Speaker 2: but I'll be right back. Today's tough headlines coming up 725 00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:38,839 Speaker 2: Fine fifty five hundred eight hundred eight two three talk 726 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:40,839 Speaker 2: pound five fifty on AT and T phone and real 727 00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:43,920 Speaker 2: quick to Fred's point before I get to Jay Marine 728 00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 2: one of the listeners communicating me with an instant message 729 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:50,399 Speaker 2: that she is often prone to dudes like solutions. Looking 730 00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:53,279 Speaker 2: at just the city of Cincinnati, insofar as problems, you 731 00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:56,360 Speaker 2: might say, well, crime's a problem, infrastructure is a problem. 732 00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:00,040 Speaker 2: You know you have a makeup. Since they say a 733 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,960 Speaker 2: council one hundred percent Democrat, are you happy with the 734 00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:04,880 Speaker 2: direction the city is going? Do you think there's been 735 00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:08,320 Speaker 2: an appropriate allocation of finite resources? Are they attending to 736 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 2: the needs of the residents of the city of Cincinnati? 737 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:14,880 Speaker 2: Are they pursuing something like a green agenda? An anti 738 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,799 Speaker 2: police sort of perception or mentality you know you heard 739 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:20,759 Speaker 2: mayor have to have per of all. His response to 740 00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:23,279 Speaker 2: the violence in downtown Cincinnati, who has offered help from 741 00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:26,080 Speaker 2: the governor, He took two days out of a month 742 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:29,880 Speaker 2: to get additional research. Is that sufficient? Are you satisfied 743 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:35,160 Speaker 2: with his response? We are short on officers and unlike 744 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,759 Speaker 2: waiting around for Donald Trump to unilaterally decide to put 745 00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:40,400 Speaker 2: troops in the cities. And we could argue about that 746 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 2: all day long. We can't immediately replace the number of 747 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:46,800 Speaker 2: officers that were down in the city of Cincinnati. That 748 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 2: takes time. That is a long term project. If you 749 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:52,839 Speaker 2: can get an immediate solution by taking governor to wine 750 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 2: up on his offer for law enforcement resources, perhaps every 751 00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 2: day of the month until we get to the point 752 00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:00,120 Speaker 2: where we can satisfy ourselves that we have had with 753 00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:03,879 Speaker 2: cin Saint police officers to Purdue patrols. Well, maybe there's 754 00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 2: a different choice you got, Corey Bowman. If you're unhappy 755 00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:09,719 Speaker 2: with aftab Provoll, He's like, oh, I can't vote for 756 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:13,800 Speaker 2: a Republican. Ask yourself, why are you happy with the 757 00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:17,480 Speaker 2: way things are? Okay? If not, then why not try? 758 00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:20,879 Speaker 2: Corey Bowman is mayor is a finite period of time. 759 00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 1: Give it a shot. 760 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:24,840 Speaker 2: Let's see if it works. He's surrounding himself with great people. 761 00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:28,720 Speaker 2: We might have city manager Todd Zinzer somebody else you mentioned, 762 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,080 Speaker 2: and he will be perfect for the job. And he's 763 00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:33,920 Speaker 2: amazingly experienced, being a former Inspector General from the United 764 00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:36,320 Speaker 2: States government. Steve Gooden Charter right. You don't have to 765 00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:41,160 Speaker 2: vote Republican. Vote Steve Gooden. He's brilliant, he's got a record, 766 00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:42,840 Speaker 2: he was appointed on council for a while, and I 767 00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:45,440 Speaker 2: think he is certainly not a third rail by any 768 00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:50,239 Speaker 2: stretching the imagination. So replacing Dems may, she says, is 769 00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:54,239 Speaker 2: the solution. I say, at least maybe the solution. You 770 00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:56,840 Speaker 2: may not be satisfied after, you know, let's say a 771 00:41:57,040 --> 00:42:01,000 Speaker 2: Republican at least presence on council. Well maybe if you 772 00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:03,759 Speaker 2: even give them complete control. You got more Republicans and 773 00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,400 Speaker 2: Democrats on council, you got a Republican mayor. Get your 774 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 2: popcorn out. Let's see how things unfold. Things clearly, at 775 00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:13,520 Speaker 2: least from my perspective, are not on the right track 776 00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:16,560 Speaker 2: in the city. So you have an alternative to try. 777 00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:20,880 Speaker 2: We do this all the time in the in matters political. 778 00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 2: We try and sometimes it doesn't deliver, and sometimes it 779 00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:29,000 Speaker 2: does deliver, and it delivers in spades. I mean, think 780 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:31,600 Speaker 2: about where we were under Jimmy Carter and then look 781 00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 2: at where we were after or after even four years. 782 00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:37,360 Speaker 2: But eight years of the Reagan administration. Well on the 783 00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:41,400 Speaker 2: right track. Maybe a profound shift in a right direction. 784 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,120 Speaker 2: Let's see it. Jay, Thanks for indulging me there. Thank 785 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 2: you so much for holding I always appreciate your calls. 786 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:47,520 Speaker 2: Welcome back and happy Monday. 787 00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 10: Hey, Happy Monday, Bryan. Hey, love your program. Whenever you 788 00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:54,359 Speaker 10: get a collar like Fred, I think that's the first 789 00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:57,240 Speaker 10: time in my life that I have been I've blessened 790 00:42:57,280 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 10: to talk radio for years and years where somebody said, hey, 791 00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:01,919 Speaker 10: educate me, make your point. 792 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:03,120 Speaker 9: What are you angry about? 793 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:06,840 Speaker 7: Uh So, kudos to Fred to throw that out. 794 00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:09,960 Speaker 10: Let me in a very short amount of time. Give 795 00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:11,200 Speaker 10: you a couple of recommendations. 796 00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:11,479 Speaker 1: Fred. 797 00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 10: One is and by the by, this is humbly. 798 00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:15,920 Speaker 7: I do not have all the answers. 799 00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:18,359 Speaker 10: Only one person has all the answers, and that's Lord 800 00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:24,520 Speaker 10: the Savior Jesus Christ. So I would recommend fits Everett 801 00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:31,279 Speaker 10: Ellison's book The Iron Triangle, a former Democrat turn Republican. 802 00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:36,240 Speaker 10: Maybe in a similar spot, Fred to where he started 803 00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:39,360 Speaker 10: trying to figure out what was the difference, and it 804 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:43,160 Speaker 10: was an awakening for him of what is the difference? 805 00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:47,440 Speaker 10: High level, here's what I would say. A conservative is 806 00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:51,560 Speaker 10: somebody who says, I am good with me. I got me, 807 00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:54,719 Speaker 10: I don't need the government, I don't need anybody else 808 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:59,440 Speaker 10: in my on my back or in my Quallet leave 809 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:01,640 Speaker 10: me alone. I don't want anything to do with you. 810 00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:04,759 Speaker 10: I'll follow the laws. That's it, that's all I want. 811 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:08,759 Speaker 10: A liberal and so a conservative says, we have these 812 00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 10: God given rights, and only God can give us these 813 00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:15,239 Speaker 10: rights and will allow me to pursue any life that 814 00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:19,640 Speaker 10: I want, any opportunity that I want to pursue. The liberals, 815 00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:23,960 Speaker 10: on the other hand, I adopted the philosophy that came 816 00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:28,239 Speaker 10: out of Germany in the late eighteen hundreds. It says, no, no, no, 817 00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:32,560 Speaker 10: God doesn't give you rights. Government gives you rights. And 818 00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:41,280 Speaker 10: famously at LBJ President LBJ. Johnson, And remember, the Democrats 819 00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:43,720 Speaker 10: were the party of the Confederacy. They are the party 820 00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:47,800 Speaker 10: of slavery. They are the party of keep people in 821 00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:51,640 Speaker 10: change and take away their power, and we'll make all 822 00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:55,960 Speaker 10: the decisions. And not much has changed. The Democrat Party 823 00:44:56,480 --> 00:45:01,960 Speaker 10: has had power and control over every innertony for decades, 824 00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:06,160 Speaker 10: maybe one hundred years. And the output of their philosophy 825 00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:08,600 Speaker 10: is what you see with the crime that's going on 826 00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:10,839 Speaker 10: in all the major cities that have been run by 827 00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:16,719 Speaker 10: Democrats for decades, which is, here's the deal. The deal 828 00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:20,520 Speaker 10: from the liberals the Democrat party is if you get 829 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:23,480 Speaker 10: if you vote Democrat, we're going to give you a 830 00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:25,719 Speaker 10: little bit of something, something which means we're going to 831 00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:30,680 Speaker 10: steal from your fellow Americans, legalized theft, and we're going 832 00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:33,160 Speaker 10: to give it to you. It won't be enough for 833 00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:35,719 Speaker 10: you to ever get ahead, it won't be enough for 834 00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:39,200 Speaker 10: you to ever really be satisfied, but you won't really 835 00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:41,760 Speaker 10: have to work that hard, but we'll keep you in poverty, 836 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:45,920 Speaker 10: and then we become your slave masters again. And all 837 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:48,640 Speaker 10: you have to do is follow our plan. And that 838 00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:52,719 Speaker 10: goes for people of all colors, that's all races, and 839 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:55,520 Speaker 10: vitz Ebrett Ellison lays that out in his book beautifully 840 00:45:56,080 --> 00:45:59,399 Speaker 10: that what they started with the black community is going 841 00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:03,759 Speaker 10: on across all communities, and that's their plan is socialism 842 00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:06,680 Speaker 10: and communism, where there's central planning that's going to take 843 00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:08,480 Speaker 10: care of everything. You just have to turn all of 844 00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:11,200 Speaker 10: your power, all of your rights, all of your money 845 00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:14,200 Speaker 10: over to them. You're no longer a citizen, You're now 846 00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:17,800 Speaker 10: a slave. That's the difference between conservatism and liberalism and 847 00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:20,040 Speaker 10: the don't vote Democrat or Rhino. 848 00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:23,759 Speaker 2: Well, no, I was say in that latter position, philosophy 849 00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:28,080 Speaker 2: is really predicated and relies almost exclusively on waging class 850 00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:31,799 Speaker 2: warfare and telling people it's not fair. Someone's got more 851 00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:34,640 Speaker 2: than you, we should take from them and give it 852 00:46:34,719 --> 00:46:37,520 Speaker 2: to you, which to me is immoral and unethical just 853 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:40,000 Speaker 2: as a starting point, but that's where it all comes from. 854 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:42,920 Speaker 2: It's that anger and resentment because you're out there in 855 00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:45,200 Speaker 2: the world and you're not winking a whole lot of money. 856 00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:46,840 Speaker 2: Your life didn't turn out the way you thought it 857 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:49,160 Speaker 2: was going to be. It's not fair. I haven't gotten 858 00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:51,640 Speaker 2: the American dreams. So you latch onto these people who 859 00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:54,800 Speaker 2: are redistributing wealth. That's what the whole system of government 860 00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:55,719 Speaker 2: is based on. 861 00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:59,160 Speaker 10: From their perspective, well correct, And they have to make 862 00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:02,120 Speaker 10: you believe that you were the victim, right, But as 863 00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:04,320 Speaker 10: soon as you wake up and you figure out that 864 00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:06,239 Speaker 10: you're not a victim and you're a citizen, and you 865 00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:10,520 Speaker 10: have any you can pursue any opportunity you want. Now 866 00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:13,000 Speaker 10: you're no longer a slave, and it's unbelievable what you. 867 00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:14,040 Speaker 1: Can accomplish well. 868 00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:17,640 Speaker 2: And I also have to observe Jay, your description of 869 00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:22,200 Speaker 2: conservatism actually sounds like a description of a libertarian philosophy, 870 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:26,360 Speaker 2: which you know, considering you summed up conservatism as you know, 871 00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:27,719 Speaker 2: stay the hell away from me. 872 00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:28,719 Speaker 1: You do what you want. 873 00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:30,839 Speaker 2: I can live under the umbrella. I'll follow the law, 874 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:33,520 Speaker 2: You follow the law, we'll I'll make our own decisions 875 00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:37,000 Speaker 2: for ourselves. For quite often, the dividing factor, and Fred 876 00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:40,040 Speaker 2: even said it, abortion was one thing that caused so 877 00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:43,960 Speaker 2: many even people who might be otherwise quote unquote conservatives 878 00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:46,799 Speaker 2: safe from a fiscal standpoint, didn't want the government saying 879 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:49,040 Speaker 2: whether or not a woman could have an abortion. That 880 00:47:49,239 --> 00:47:53,600 Speaker 2: was embedded in the conservative slash Republican party platform, and 881 00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:57,000 Speaker 2: it served as a great foil to Republicans making inroads. 882 00:47:57,320 --> 00:47:59,600 Speaker 2: I've always been to the mind, I trust you with 883 00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:02,080 Speaker 2: your in your zipper. Don't come after my wallet, and 884 00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:04,239 Speaker 2: don't come after my zipper. We're capable over here in 885 00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:06,600 Speaker 2: the Thomas household of making your own decisions about where 886 00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:09,920 Speaker 2: we spend our money and how we choose to engage 887 00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:13,160 Speaker 2: in sexual activities. I'm cool with you doing your own thing. 888 00:48:13,280 --> 00:48:15,600 Speaker 2: Just do it behind the damn door and enjoy your life. 889 00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:20,000 Speaker 2: But that wasn't the case up until fairly recently, and 890 00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:22,719 Speaker 2: more and more folks subscribe to what you were saying, 891 00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:25,960 Speaker 2: what I've always said. My goal was always to be Republicans, 892 00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:30,799 Speaker 2: should be more little L libertarian, little L libertarian. And look, 893 00:48:30,920 --> 00:48:35,040 Speaker 2: abortions no longer a federal issue, Federal office holders are 894 00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:37,960 Speaker 2: no longer running on that it's a state's issue. And 895 00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:40,440 Speaker 2: has abortion gone away? No, If last reporting, there are 896 00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:43,400 Speaker 2: more now than there were before Roe v. Wade was overturned, 897 00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:46,359 Speaker 2: More people and more states decided to enshrine the right 898 00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:49,200 Speaker 2: of abortion because well, I guess the population wanted it, 899 00:48:49,719 --> 00:48:52,719 Speaker 2: So strike that from the party platform unless you're in 900 00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:55,759 Speaker 2: a state where you think you can do something about it. Also, 901 00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:59,480 Speaker 2: you know, conservatives quite often advocated for religion in schools, 902 00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:03,120 Speaker 2: but only conservative. I only am a Christianity. We don't 903 00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:06,640 Speaker 2: live in a theocracy. I mean that's in the constitution 904 00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:11,720 Speaker 2: free exercise of religion, not free exercise of Christianity alone. 905 00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:14,120 Speaker 2: So that was a dividing thing and find that offensive 906 00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 2: if you will, it's still a political reality. More and 907 00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:20,640 Speaker 2: more people aren't touching that aspect. They're just looking at 908 00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:24,439 Speaker 2: dollars and cents. They're looking at exactly what you're talking about, Jay, 909 00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:27,400 Speaker 2: And I think that's a personally, I believe that's healthy 910 00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:29,920 Speaker 2: because we get rid of all this effort to control 911 00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:33,040 Speaker 2: our lives that one element, whether the left is doing 912 00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:35,560 Speaker 2: it or the right is doing it. Maybe governments shouldn't 913 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:41,120 Speaker 2: be controlling these personal issues in our lives, right, No, 914 00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:45,960 Speaker 2: they shouldn't. They shouldn't. That's not what elect officials are 915 00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:48,040 Speaker 2: in a position to do. Do they know what's going 916 00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:52,040 Speaker 2: on in your home, in your neighborhood? No, not at all. 917 00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:55,000 Speaker 2: Six sixteen fifty five Krcity Talk Station, Chime In, I 918 00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:58,880 Speaker 2: Love It five p. One to three, six twenty one 919 00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:03,200 Speaker 2: fifty five Carcity Talks Station, Happy Monday, Monday Monday, Brian 920 00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:05,600 Speaker 2: James eight oh five. I'm preceded by, of course, Christopher 921 00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:07,719 Speaker 2: Smith and coming up in one hour with the Smith event. 922 00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:10,560 Speaker 2: Us an opportunity here, Judge Christopher McDowell should have been 923 00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:13,640 Speaker 2: listening to lunch and made a Shenanigan's declaration at listener 924 00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:16,000 Speaker 2: lunch to me. We're gonna hear about that Shenanigan's declaration 925 00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:18,000 Speaker 2: that he thirty without further ado. Let's see what Tom's 926 00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:19,839 Speaker 2: got hand hold on. We'll get you next. Tom, thanks 927 00:50:19,880 --> 00:50:20,600 Speaker 2: for calling. 928 00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:25,680 Speaker 11: Brian so over the weekend or last Friday, I was 929 00:50:25,719 --> 00:50:31,279 Speaker 11: reading they got the twenty point property tax h relief. Yeah, 930 00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:34,680 Speaker 11: buddy done. I read it like twice and still don't 931 00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:36,040 Speaker 11: understand where the money is. 932 00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:40,759 Speaker 2: God bless you, Tom. Tom. I have three articles in 933 00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:43,480 Speaker 2: front of me about the Republican's plans to override Governor 934 00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:46,479 Speaker 2: Mike Dwines Veto and looking into what the Property Tax 935 00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:49,359 Speaker 2: Group had released by way of its twenty point plan, 936 00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:53,040 Speaker 2: I was confused, as hell man the reporting on it. 937 00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:57,400 Speaker 11: Say what said it looks like a bunch of lawyers 938 00:50:57,400 --> 00:50:58,720 Speaker 11: wrote that document. 939 00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:03,040 Speaker 2: It's designed to confuse. 940 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:06,480 Speaker 11: It seems like the more money we give them, the 941 00:51:06,600 --> 00:51:08,440 Speaker 11: more waste and abuse we have. 942 00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:10,400 Speaker 2: So well that goes with that. 943 00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:14,760 Speaker 11: Say so, you know the old saying death and taxes. 944 00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:17,359 Speaker 11: But we're gonna have to get some kind of relief here, 945 00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:19,560 Speaker 11: and I don't think it's that complicated. 946 00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:20,239 Speaker 1: We just need to. 947 00:51:21,840 --> 00:51:25,839 Speaker 11: Pull up our sleeves and reach in there and yank 948 00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:28,359 Speaker 11: the guts out of the situation because these schools are 949 00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:32,439 Speaker 11: really taking them bulk of this money. And I think, 950 00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:35,800 Speaker 11: you know, get those tax vouchers for any school you 951 00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:39,160 Speaker 11: want to go to and you get better education, and yeah, 952 00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:40,840 Speaker 11: I don't know if you have anything to fill in on. 953 00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:43,320 Speaker 2: Well, that's see. That's one of the ways I've always 954 00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:45,360 Speaker 2: commented on. Okay, if we get rid of property taxes, 955 00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:49,000 Speaker 2: it's not just schools. And of course, going back twenty 956 00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:50,920 Speaker 2: years ago, the Supreme Court in Ohio so that the 957 00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:54,640 Speaker 2: current funding mechanism is unconstitutional. Let's ignore that court order. 958 00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:57,640 Speaker 2: But you would solve presumably that problem if you got 959 00:51:57,760 --> 00:51:59,840 Speaker 2: a voucher for the kids. The money goes directly to 960 00:51:59,840 --> 00:52:01,960 Speaker 2: the kids, and money obviously then would have to come 961 00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:05,520 Speaker 2: from Columbus. That takes the way this county local funding 962 00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:08,680 Speaker 2: mechanism right now, it's going to be alchemy to figure 963 00:52:08,719 --> 00:52:12,320 Speaker 2: out how much per student goes to any individual student 964 00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:14,799 Speaker 2: unless they just make it equal across the board. It's 965 00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:16,880 Speaker 2: more expensive in some areas than others, and we can 966 00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:20,359 Speaker 2: discuss the reasons why that may be. But at least 967 00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:22,239 Speaker 2: the money would come from a uniform source. It would 968 00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:24,040 Speaker 2: go to the kids. That would take that out of 969 00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:27,880 Speaker 2: the local levy situation, and of course it'd be one 970 00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:29,799 Speaker 2: less item. We needed to figure out how to fund 971 00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:31,919 Speaker 2: how do you fund local parks, how do you fund 972 00:52:31,960 --> 00:52:35,160 Speaker 2: local police? How do you fund local fire? That is 973 00:52:35,239 --> 00:52:38,440 Speaker 2: a complicating issue. If you eradicate property taxes, all that 974 00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:40,399 Speaker 2: money apparently is going to have to have its roots 975 00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:43,560 Speaker 2: in Columbus, and you can only imagine the Charlie foxtrot 976 00:52:43,640 --> 00:52:46,839 Speaker 2: reality of elected officials and Columbus arguing over who gets 977 00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:49,279 Speaker 2: what and how much. Very complicated. 978 00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:53,719 Speaker 11: But yeah, we might have commissions on the study. 979 00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:59,960 Speaker 2: For forever twenty years. Again, Tom, we've been under the 980 00:53:00,120 --> 00:53:02,759 Speaker 2: Supreme Court decision that's being ignored now for twenty years. 981 00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:05,000 Speaker 2: So yeah, I can see the road going down that 982 00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:07,839 Speaker 2: road and it probably won't result in anything. At least 983 00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:12,360 Speaker 2: they're trying. Thanks Tom, appreciate that. Yeah, go ahead and 984 00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:14,000 Speaker 2: read up on that. It is confusing. Do we have 985 00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:17,080 Speaker 2: time for Hank, Joe Henk. Welcome to the Morning Show. 986 00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:17,760 Speaker 2: Happy Monday. 987 00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:22,399 Speaker 12: Well, good morning, Brian. I hope I can get through 988 00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:26,040 Speaker 12: all of this. I've had a comms or not. Tom 989 00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:28,920 Speaker 12: Fred's comments kind of got me going, So I'm going 990 00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:32,040 Speaker 12: to try and go through this belt fed The problem 991 00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:36,240 Speaker 12: with the Democrats is basically they're divided pretty much between 992 00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:40,800 Speaker 12: anarchists and status and the problem with that they cause 993 00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:44,680 Speaker 12: is Democrats increase crime by tolerating it. Now you can 994 00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:50,239 Speaker 12: point to January sixth, but with Donald Trump said let's 995 00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:52,960 Speaker 12: go to the Capitol and make our voices known peacefully 996 00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:57,680 Speaker 12: and patriotically. So that's basically the argument is is that 997 00:53:57,960 --> 00:54:02,160 Speaker 12: it's on both sides. It's not. Another thing is abortion 998 00:54:02,719 --> 00:54:06,239 Speaker 12: encourages their responsibility. Now, you keep saying, you know, you 999 00:54:06,400 --> 00:54:09,879 Speaker 12: trust people with their own zipper, but quite honestly, there's 1000 00:54:09,920 --> 00:54:13,320 Speaker 12: a lot of people out there that are just going wild, 1001 00:54:13,480 --> 00:54:16,680 Speaker 12: and you know, you say that's their choice, but to me, 1002 00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:20,400 Speaker 12: it seems like it hardens people when you start making 1003 00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:27,080 Speaker 12: abortion come and it makes death cheap. Now, also when 1004 00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:29,759 Speaker 12: when you have too many immigrants with another one of 1005 00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:34,920 Speaker 12: Fred's points is they don't assimilate. They come into the country, 1006 00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:38,640 Speaker 12: they set up their own little enclaves, like what's going 1007 00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:42,800 Speaker 12: on in Detroit, and you wind up, yeah, and you 1008 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:47,399 Speaker 12: wind up with people that basically are they're settling, they're 1009 00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:52,960 Speaker 12: not they're colonizing, they're not just joining America. And also 1010 00:54:53,200 --> 00:54:55,400 Speaker 12: you run into the problem as you mentioned where they 1011 00:54:55,440 --> 00:54:58,360 Speaker 12: hook themselves up to the umbilical cord and don't seem. 1012 00:54:58,200 --> 00:54:59,200 Speaker 1: To get off right. 1013 00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:03,200 Speaker 12: Go back to where Tom was or Fred was asking 1014 00:55:03,320 --> 00:55:07,319 Speaker 12: about you know why they took shop class out of school. Well, 1015 00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:11,320 Speaker 12: they took it out because it was sexist. It was 1016 00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:14,480 Speaker 12: boys went to shop class and girls went to home mack. 1017 00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:17,120 Speaker 12: And we can't have that kind of crap going on. 1018 00:55:17,360 --> 00:55:18,960 Speaker 2: Well, Hank, when I was in high school, I took 1019 00:55:19,000 --> 00:55:21,120 Speaker 2: homemack and I learned how to make peanut brittle. I 1020 00:55:21,200 --> 00:55:23,120 Speaker 2: still make that recipe to this day. We're going back 1021 00:55:23,160 --> 00:55:26,120 Speaker 2: fifty years, man, I think roughly, so maybe a little long, 1022 00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:28,880 Speaker 2: a forty five years. But no, I mean could always 1023 00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:31,800 Speaker 2: take homemac. It's just a question of society's acceptance of it. 1024 00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:33,640 Speaker 2: It took a while for us to get over to 1025 00:55:33,680 --> 00:55:35,719 Speaker 2: the point where, yeah, men women can take shop, men 1026 00:55:35,800 --> 00:55:38,759 Speaker 2: can take shop. The traditional roles of men and women 1027 00:55:38,840 --> 00:55:41,360 Speaker 2: have changed and shifted over the years, and in so 1028 00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:45,359 Speaker 2: far as people, you know, going back to your collective, like, yes, 1029 00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:48,840 Speaker 2: Minneapolis has large Muslim communities. Yes, in New York, and 1030 00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:50,640 Speaker 2: it's been this way for a long time. There's always 1031 00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:54,239 Speaker 2: been heavy concentration of Jewish people living together, and in fact, 1032 00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:57,400 Speaker 2: they have their own system of governance, self governance. They 1033 00:55:57,480 --> 00:56:01,640 Speaker 2: have Jewish law and they and of course it doesn't 1034 00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:04,640 Speaker 2: supersede local laws. You can still go to the prosecutor's 1035 00:56:04,719 --> 00:56:06,800 Speaker 2: office if you've been wrong. There are still laws in 1036 00:56:06,840 --> 00:56:09,359 Speaker 2: the books that do apply. But quite often they choose 1037 00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:11,520 Speaker 2: to resolve their problems amongst themselves. And who am I 1038 00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:13,680 Speaker 2: to tell you you can't do that. The fact that 1039 00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:16,840 Speaker 2: people who are of like mind, that look alike, that 1040 00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:19,320 Speaker 2: think alike, that practice the same religion all want to 1041 00:56:19,400 --> 00:56:23,759 Speaker 2: congregate together, that makes sense to me. I mean, that's 1042 00:56:23,920 --> 00:56:25,919 Speaker 2: exactly the way we are. I mean, I've always said 1043 00:56:25,960 --> 00:56:27,959 Speaker 2: I'll be friends with anybody. I don't care what color 1044 00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:30,239 Speaker 2: they are, what religion they practice. If they like the 1045 00:56:30,320 --> 00:56:32,120 Speaker 2: same kind of stuff that I like to do, we're 1046 00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:36,560 Speaker 2: probably going to get along great. So that's normal. It's 1047 00:56:36,600 --> 00:56:39,520 Speaker 2: always been that way, so I don't find a problem 1048 00:56:39,560 --> 00:56:41,400 Speaker 2: with it under this big umbrella we have. But I 1049 00:56:41,480 --> 00:56:46,160 Speaker 2: don't know that you necessarily need to assimilate into the culture. 1050 00:56:46,200 --> 00:56:48,880 Speaker 2: And what does that mean. I think if we all 1051 00:56:49,000 --> 00:56:52,520 Speaker 2: had some reasonable ethics and norms about respecting each other's 1052 00:56:52,640 --> 00:56:54,880 Speaker 2: rights and freedoms and our ability to go in the 1053 00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:57,680 Speaker 2: direction we want. We'd be in a better place. Just 1054 00:56:57,760 --> 00:56:59,040 Speaker 2: that a lot of people out in the world are 1055 00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:01,560 Speaker 2: trying to force you into doing something you don't want 1056 00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:04,040 Speaker 2: to do. Again, going back to looking at communities, like 1057 00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:07,920 Speaker 2: minded people congregate together. The Left's always been about stirring 1058 00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:10,680 Speaker 2: that pot up. We need to have representation from all 1059 00:57:10,840 --> 00:57:13,479 Speaker 2: racist creeds ethnicities. There must be a percentage of people 1060 00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:16,400 Speaker 2: that are this color and that color. Why well, because 1061 00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:21,560 Speaker 2: all right, but we mentally and we I think, crave 1062 00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:24,800 Speaker 2: to be around like minded people. That's how you end 1063 00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:27,280 Speaker 2: up with neighborhoods that are of like mind. It was 1064 00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:29,760 Speaker 2: a choice that was made by the people that live there. 1065 00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:33,600 Speaker 2: Fifty five Karrascity Toalxtation. You feel free to chime in. 1066 00:57:33,680 --> 00:57:36,040 Speaker 2: Maybe you see it differently. I don't mind that at all, 1067 00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:38,680 Speaker 2: difference of opinion. They're welcome here on the Since I 1068 00:57:38,760 --> 00:57:41,800 Speaker 2: please identified a man killed after our shooting in Roselawn 1069 00:57:41,840 --> 00:57:44,840 Speaker 2: that happened on Saturday. Kenny Townsend, thirty five, died as 1070 00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:47,560 Speaker 2: a result of being shot sixteen hundred block A Summit. 1071 00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:50,800 Speaker 2: Rogue officers called area to the area about twelve thirty pm. 1072 00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:52,919 Speaker 2: That's where they found Towns in with a gunshot wound, 1073 00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:59,640 Speaker 2: initially suffering life threatening injuries, according to Lieutenant Jonathan Cunningham. 1074 00:58:00,360 --> 00:58:02,520 Speaker 2: Police have not stated if they have a suspect still 1075 00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:06,480 Speaker 2: under investigation again Crime Stoppers three five two thirty forty 1076 00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:13,479 Speaker 2: just two of the stories involving violence in downtown Cincinnati. Yeah, 1077 00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:16,040 Speaker 2: I don't know what I got out of it along 1078 00:58:16,120 --> 00:58:18,720 Speaker 2: those lines, but I certainly got a good peanut brittle recipe. 1079 00:58:21,600 --> 00:58:25,160 Speaker 2: I also took woodshot. I also took typing. I also 1080 00:58:25,240 --> 00:58:28,080 Speaker 2: took sewing. Yeah, that was part of home act. I 1081 00:58:28,240 --> 00:58:32,040 Speaker 2: made a dog a bet. Yeah, one of those beanbag 1082 00:58:32,120 --> 00:58:34,400 Speaker 2: kind of things is basically a giant ball filled with 1083 00:58:34,480 --> 00:58:36,800 Speaker 2: fluffy you know. Yeah, I made one of those. My 1084 00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:39,760 Speaker 2: only accomplishment in sewing class. But you know, do I 1085 00:58:39,880 --> 00:58:42,200 Speaker 2: know how to thread a sewing machine? 1086 00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:42,360 Speaker 7: Now? 1087 00:58:43,360 --> 00:58:45,200 Speaker 2: I don't know. I'd be hard pressed to do it now, 1088 00:58:45,280 --> 00:58:47,320 Speaker 2: it's been too many years, but I did learn a skill. 1089 00:58:50,600 --> 00:58:53,320 Speaker 2: We're a lot of women in that class too. I 1090 00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:55,320 Speaker 2: was looking at this meme someone sent them Shocking things 1091 00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:58,360 Speaker 2: liberals believe, and it's all, of course, things that liberals 1092 00:58:58,400 --> 00:59:02,120 Speaker 2: believe that you're supposed to think are great ideas. Like, 1093 00:59:02,200 --> 00:59:08,040 Speaker 2: for example, here's one everyone should have access equal access 1094 00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:12,200 Speaker 2: to equal education. What does that mean in going back 1095 00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:16,600 Speaker 2: to what liberals believe. Apparently they believe in one single 1096 00:59:16,880 --> 00:59:21,280 Speaker 2: solitary public school platform, the public school, and they will 1097 00:59:21,320 --> 00:59:23,760 Speaker 2: not give you choice. I think you have a greater 1098 00:59:23,880 --> 00:59:26,640 Speaker 2: opportunity to equal access to equal education if you're given 1099 00:59:26,640 --> 00:59:28,880 Speaker 2: the freedom of choice to choose. And here's another one 1100 00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:31,280 Speaker 2: that I thought rather interesting. There should not be subsidies 1101 00:59:31,360 --> 00:59:35,160 Speaker 2: for profitable corporations. Yeah, I agree with that, but there 1102 00:59:35,200 --> 00:59:39,000 Speaker 2: also shouldn't be subsidies for unprofitable corporations. Like the whole 1103 00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:42,440 Speaker 2: green energy thing, it's coming collapsing around us. If you 1104 00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:46,760 Speaker 2: have no subsidies, no one wants it. It can't compete. 1105 00:59:46,920 --> 00:59:51,200 Speaker 2: It's an inferior energy source. But what about the climate. Yeah, 1106 00:59:51,240 --> 00:59:54,440 Speaker 2: carbon dioxide isn't a pollutant. Just take that element out 1107 00:59:54,440 --> 00:59:56,960 Speaker 2: of the whole global warming argument. Let the plants eat 1108 00:59:57,040 --> 01:00:00,720 Speaker 2: the food that we give them with our exhalation. Carbon 1109 01:00:00,760 --> 01:00:02,920 Speaker 2: dioxide is, in and of itself, nothing that is going 1110 01:00:02,960 --> 01:00:06,080 Speaker 2: to kill the planet. It's not like mercury, where it 1111 01:00:06,200 --> 01:00:09,200 Speaker 2: causes cancer or other problems. And you know it exists 1112 01:00:09,240 --> 01:00:12,440 Speaker 2: as a natural component of our world. Ergo, it's not 1113 01:00:12,640 --> 01:00:19,280 Speaker 2: a pollutant. Yeah, lobbyists should not be allowed to bribe 1114 01:00:19,320 --> 01:00:23,120 Speaker 2: our representatives. I'll agree with that. The question is is 1115 01:00:23,280 --> 01:00:26,200 Speaker 2: funding their campaigns a former bribery? And if it is, 1116 01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:30,560 Speaker 2: then both liberals and conservatives are equal opportunity offenders when 1117 01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:32,040 Speaker 2: it comes to that. So I guess it's a question 1118 01:00:32,240 --> 01:00:34,040 Speaker 2: in the hearts and minds of liberals whose ox is 1119 01:00:34,080 --> 01:00:36,680 Speaker 2: being goored when it comes to campaign funding from lobbyists. 1120 01:00:39,240 --> 01:00:42,240 Speaker 2: No child should fear being shot at school, I agree, 1121 01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:45,520 Speaker 2: but it's a breakdown of society, not the firearm itself, 1122 01:00:45,560 --> 01:00:48,600 Speaker 2: because the firearm, while being protected as an inalienable right 1123 01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:51,640 Speaker 2: under our constitution, the firearm does not get up on 1124 01:00:51,760 --> 01:00:55,040 Speaker 2: its own and start shooting people at schools. Crazy people 1125 01:00:55,200 --> 01:00:59,680 Speaker 2: do that. Can you get rid of crazy? Is there 1126 01:00:59,680 --> 01:01:01,920 Speaker 2: a pece of legislation you can pass and is going 1127 01:01:01,960 --> 01:01:04,520 Speaker 2: to get rid of crazy? The answer is obviously no. 1128 01:01:07,200 --> 01:01:10,840 Speaker 2: Wall Street gangsters should go to prison when they steal. Well, 1129 01:01:11,360 --> 01:01:14,520 Speaker 2: calling them gangsters is one thing, it's a label unsupported 1130 01:01:14,560 --> 01:01:17,720 Speaker 2: by facts. But if they are stealing, definitionally, that is 1131 01:01:17,760 --> 01:01:20,360 Speaker 2: a crime, and they should go to prison when they 1132 01:01:20,440 --> 01:01:23,880 Speaker 2: are stealing. I guess it depends on what your definition 1133 01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:27,880 Speaker 2: of steal. Is hmm. And then there's a whole idea 1134 01:01:27,880 --> 01:01:30,920 Speaker 2: of equality, equal rights, and equal pay should be a 1135 01:01:31,040 --> 01:01:34,120 Speaker 2: benchmark for all Americans. Welcome to the the just the 1136 01:01:34,320 --> 01:01:38,720 Speaker 2: bare bones reality of Marxism or Communism. From each according 1137 01:01:38,760 --> 01:01:40,800 Speaker 2: to his ability, to each according to his need. Yes, you, 1138 01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:45,320 Speaker 2: as a barista at the Starbucks are entitled to equal pay. Yes, 1139 01:01:45,480 --> 01:01:47,880 Speaker 2: even that of a CEO at a Fortune five hundred 1140 01:01:47,920 --> 01:01:50,560 Speaker 2: country company, which they complain about in this meme as well. 1141 01:01:50,760 --> 01:01:53,360 Speaker 2: CEOs should not receive three thousand times the pay of 1142 01:01:53,440 --> 01:01:56,040 Speaker 2: their workers. Oh that's a market force driven I might 1143 01:01:56,120 --> 01:01:58,560 Speaker 2: agree conceptually with you with his statement. Are they really 1144 01:01:58,680 --> 01:02:03,080 Speaker 2: worth that much? Apparently the big corporations think so. They're 1145 01:02:03,160 --> 01:02:05,720 Speaker 2: chasing after the same groups and individuals that are on 1146 01:02:05,840 --> 01:02:08,440 Speaker 2: various boards of directors, many of whom serve on multiple 1147 01:02:08,480 --> 01:02:11,160 Speaker 2: board of directors, and are handsomely paid for it because 1148 01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:13,680 Speaker 2: I guess they have the qualifications that maybe a frontline 1149 01:02:13,720 --> 01:02:18,040 Speaker 2: worker does not have, thus justifying their well increase salary. 1150 01:02:19,600 --> 01:02:21,120 Speaker 2: I could go on and on on this. You know, 1151 01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:23,120 Speaker 2: you look at them and immediately they appear to be 1152 01:02:23,320 --> 01:02:26,160 Speaker 2: appealing as an out loud statement, but then you peel 1153 01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:29,440 Speaker 2: back the veneer of what they're saying, and the fallacy 1154 01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:32,160 Speaker 2: of the statements are revealed in full six forty six 1155 01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:37,400 Speaker 2: at fifty five KRC, the six fifty one if if 1156 01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:43,040 Speaker 2: you buy KRC detalk station have a Monday trying to 1157 01:02:43,040 --> 01:02:46,440 Speaker 2: make it so anyway, Well, so Trumpson's in Portland, in 1158 01:02:46,440 --> 01:02:48,600 Speaker 2: the National Guarden in Portland, where the place is falling apart. 1159 01:02:48,720 --> 01:02:51,240 Speaker 2: Now going back to a common thread made earlier. You know, 1160 01:02:51,640 --> 01:02:54,240 Speaker 2: you believe your eyes, believe your ears, or believe what 1161 01:02:54,280 --> 01:03:00,280 Speaker 2: people are telling you, a little healthy dose of perception reality. Yes, 1162 01:03:00,360 --> 01:03:03,880 Speaker 2: there are a thousand protesters or however many given protesters 1163 01:03:03,960 --> 01:03:07,480 Speaker 2: throwing rocks and bottles and basically being violent because ICE 1164 01:03:07,600 --> 01:03:10,720 Speaker 2: is trying to do its job. Those laws are on 1165 01:03:10,760 --> 01:03:12,640 Speaker 2: the books. ICE is there just trying to do their job. 1166 01:03:12,720 --> 01:03:19,120 Speaker 2: You don't like that, then he changed the law. In 1167 01:03:19,240 --> 01:03:21,400 Speaker 2: Donald Trump's case, he wants to send the federal troops 1168 01:03:21,440 --> 01:03:23,480 Speaker 2: in for the purpose of protecting federal property and like 1169 01:03:23,720 --> 01:03:26,680 Speaker 2: justified in doing that within certain parameters. And this lawsuit 1170 01:03:29,120 --> 01:03:31,720 Speaker 2: that the Trump administration loss lawsuit brought by the State 1171 01:03:31,720 --> 01:03:34,520 Speaker 2: of Oregon City of Portland, arguing that the deployment was 1172 01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:37,600 Speaker 2: unlawful and exceeded the president's statutory authority, and that's what 1173 01:03:37,680 --> 01:03:46,600 Speaker 2: the judge decided. Two hundred Oregon National Guard members showed up, 1174 01:03:46,760 --> 01:03:50,160 Speaker 2: tried to put a lid on things, and despite the 1175 01:03:50,240 --> 01:03:53,240 Speaker 2: increased violence and what we witness with our own eyes. 1176 01:03:53,320 --> 01:03:57,560 Speaker 2: So pick a number of violent protesters, what segment of 1177 01:03:57,800 --> 01:04:01,680 Speaker 2: society do they represent? Person? Percentage of the population thought 1178 01:04:01,720 --> 01:04:03,720 Speaker 2: it important to show up at the ice facility and 1179 01:04:03,800 --> 01:04:07,160 Speaker 2: raise hell? What was their motivation? Were they being paid 1180 01:04:07,200 --> 01:04:10,280 Speaker 2: to do that? Are they just basically anarchists who don't 1181 01:04:10,360 --> 01:04:13,080 Speaker 2: believe in law and order? Could be a whole collection 1182 01:04:13,160 --> 01:04:15,600 Speaker 2: of those, but we've got those. Yeah, there's a lot. 1183 01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:18,240 Speaker 2: You may have one next door to you. Are they 1184 01:04:18,320 --> 01:04:21,600 Speaker 2: the majority of people? Well, that's what elections tend to determine. 1185 01:04:22,960 --> 01:04:25,080 Speaker 2: You know, people have had enough and they say no 1186 01:04:25,240 --> 01:04:27,240 Speaker 2: Moss and they want something done about the crime, or 1187 01:04:27,320 --> 01:04:29,600 Speaker 2: they want something done about illegal immigration. They vote for 1188 01:04:29,640 --> 01:04:33,960 Speaker 2: the side that is, you know, making their point. What 1189 01:04:34,040 --> 01:04:35,640 Speaker 2: do you do in the meantime with the violence going 1190 01:04:35,720 --> 01:04:39,480 Speaker 2: on there? Judge Immigrant ruled on Saturday that Trump's federalization 1191 01:04:39,760 --> 01:04:43,320 Speaker 2: exceeded his authority because the law only allows the president 1192 01:04:43,400 --> 01:04:48,040 Speaker 2: to call on the National Guard under exceptional services circumstances, invasion, rebellion, 1193 01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:52,200 Speaker 2: inability to execute federal law using regular forces. And the 1194 01:04:52,280 --> 01:04:55,480 Speaker 2: court determined, at least in Portland, Oregon, that none of 1195 01:04:55,560 --> 01:04:59,200 Speaker 2: those conditions existed. Does that mean they don't exist in Chicago? 1196 01:04:59,240 --> 01:05:01,479 Speaker 2: If you're wondering why Trump is sending three hundred troops 1197 01:05:01,520 --> 01:05:05,240 Speaker 2: to Chicago because this decision does not govern what's going 1198 01:05:05,280 --> 01:05:08,080 Speaker 2: on in Chicago, would another judge in a case filed 1199 01:05:08,120 --> 01:05:10,280 Speaker 2: in Chicago, and yes they've been filed, to find that 1200 01:05:10,880 --> 01:05:14,520 Speaker 2: the president exceeded his authority in Chicago as well, that 1201 01:05:14,640 --> 01:05:18,640 Speaker 2: these these extra these these circumstances, invasion, rebellion, inability to 1202 01:05:18,680 --> 01:05:21,680 Speaker 2: execute federal law do not exist there as well. Certainly 1203 01:05:21,720 --> 01:05:23,480 Speaker 2: a judge could find that. But a judge could also 1204 01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:26,840 Speaker 2: find something to the contrary. It's a question of fact 1205 01:05:27,480 --> 01:05:30,800 Speaker 2: that you look at any given circumstances to determine. And 1206 01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:35,040 Speaker 2: so since you have people ramming ice agents with automobiles, 1207 01:05:36,800 --> 01:05:40,360 Speaker 2: maybe the circumstances are different in Chicago. I guess I 1208 01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:43,280 Speaker 2: always keep going back to, you know, if you had 1209 01:05:43,360 --> 01:05:48,880 Speaker 2: a legitimate poll, if you could check the pulse of say, Portland, oregators, 1210 01:05:49,800 --> 01:05:51,040 Speaker 2: now a lot of them may give you a knee 1211 01:05:51,080 --> 01:05:53,760 Speaker 2: jerk reaction. No federal troops being here is wrong. But 1212 01:05:53,880 --> 01:05:56,240 Speaker 2: if you know you're paying for the property that they're protecting, 1213 01:05:56,880 --> 01:05:58,920 Speaker 2: and of course you're paying for the life of the 1214 01:05:59,040 --> 01:06:04,080 Speaker 2: officer being pert they get shot at, they get docks, 1215 01:06:04,160 --> 01:06:05,800 Speaker 2: then they do get docs. And that's one of the 1216 01:06:05,840 --> 01:06:09,200 Speaker 2: things that I'm so offensive about California's mask law and 1217 01:06:09,280 --> 01:06:13,400 Speaker 2: makes it a lot easier. Parenthetically, the cartels are now 1218 01:06:13,480 --> 01:06:19,360 Speaker 2: setting ten thousand dollars bounties when you kill US immigration officials. Yeah, 1219 01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:22,480 Speaker 2: so California made that task a lot simpler. Go ahead 1220 01:06:22,480 --> 01:06:24,640 Speaker 2: and collect your reward from the cartels. Kill a US 1221 01:06:24,720 --> 01:06:28,680 Speaker 2: immigration official. Yeah, But at some point the people are 1222 01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:31,880 Speaker 2: going to have a say in this matter. I'm just 1223 01:06:31,960 --> 01:06:33,680 Speaker 2: of the mind that the people would rather have law 1224 01:06:33,680 --> 01:06:36,200 Speaker 2: and order that they aren't taken in by and duped 1225 01:06:36,240 --> 01:06:41,760 Speaker 2: by this evil federal truth thing. If it's federal property, 1226 01:06:41,880 --> 01:06:44,840 Speaker 2: you protect federal property. If local law enforcement won't do 1227 01:06:44,920 --> 01:06:47,840 Speaker 2: it and they're not, somebody should go in and rescue them. 1228 01:06:48,920 --> 01:06:50,520 Speaker 2: I should we go in and rescue them and protect 1229 01:06:50,520 --> 01:06:56,240 Speaker 2: the property.

I think we've been 1253 01:08:15,040 --> 01:08:18,439 Speaker 2: down this road before felony murder cases, at least as 1254 01:08:18,560 --> 01:08:20,679 Speaker 2: I understand it. We'll get the details at eight thirty 1255 01:08:20,720 --> 01:08:24,000 Speaker 2: from the judge. If there's a felony murder, it's not 1256 01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:27,320 Speaker 2: on the regular docket. So local news, for example, reporting 1257 01:08:27,360 --> 01:08:30,439 Speaker 2: on such matters, and they are important as we discuss 1258 01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:33,959 Speaker 2: crime and the increase in crime in city of Cincinnati 1259 01:08:34,000 --> 01:08:37,640 Speaker 2: and how our current elected officials are responding to it. 1260 01:08:38,360 --> 01:08:39,840 Speaker 2: Wouldn't it be nice to know if there's a felony 1261 01:08:39,920 --> 01:08:41,920 Speaker 2: murder trial going on, Yeah, you might want to cover that. 1262 01:08:42,160 --> 01:08:43,920 Speaker 2: How would you know if it's not on the docket, 1263 01:08:44,200 --> 01:08:46,040 Speaker 2: is a good question, he asked. He was at listener 1264 01:08:46,160 --> 01:08:47,880 Speaker 2: lunch and that's how I found out about this. I said, 1265 01:08:47,880 --> 01:08:49,320 Speaker 2: you got to come on the show to talk about it, 1266 01:08:49,439 --> 01:08:51,760 Speaker 2: So he'll do that at eight thirty. If you want 1267 01:08:51,760 --> 01:08:53,120 Speaker 2: to come on the show and talk about something, feel 1268 01:08:53,160 --> 01:08:55,400 Speaker 2: free to call me right now five one, three, seven, four, nine, 1269 01:08:55,479 --> 01:08:57,280 Speaker 2: fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two to three 1270 01:08:57,400 --> 01:08:59,640 Speaker 2: talk down five fifty on AT and T phones. A 1271 01:08:59,680 --> 01:09:02,120 Speaker 2: real quick here. I pointed out that the judge out 1272 01:09:02,160 --> 01:09:04,880 Speaker 2: in Portland, Oregon said, no, Trump exceeded his authority. Can't 1273 01:09:04,920 --> 01:09:08,280 Speaker 2: call on the National Guard under except under exceptional circumstances, 1274 01:09:08,320 --> 01:09:11,120 Speaker 2: which the court determined did not exist there. There was 1275 01:09:11,160 --> 01:09:14,200 Speaker 2: no invasion, rebellion, or inability to execute federal law using 1276 01:09:14,280 --> 01:09:17,120 Speaker 2: regular forces. None of those conditions exist in Portland. So 1277 01:09:17,320 --> 01:09:20,599 Speaker 2: local law enforcement federal enforcement are capable of maintaining order. 1278 01:09:20,960 --> 01:09:23,400 Speaker 2: I'll let you decide whether that's an accurate conclusion or 1279 01:09:23,439 --> 01:09:27,120 Speaker 2: not based upon what's been unfolding in Portland. But local 1280 01:09:27,240 --> 01:09:30,639 Speaker 2: circumstances dictated that this decision, at least in the mind 1281 01:09:30,680 --> 01:09:34,840 Speaker 2: of the judge, said Trump, you exceeded your authority. The 1282 01:09:34,920 --> 01:09:38,920 Speaker 2: court held the public interest favored restraint, emphasizing the importance 1283 01:09:38,960 --> 01:09:43,920 Speaker 2: of maintaining civilian control and avoiding military intrusion. Now pivoting 1284 01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:46,640 Speaker 2: over to Chicago's, the same thing exists there. We had 1285 01:09:46,720 --> 01:09:50,880 Speaker 2: ICE agents that were boxed in by ten cars on Saturday. 1286 01:09:52,640 --> 01:09:55,960 Speaker 2: Anti US immigration and Customs enforcement crowds have been gathering 1287 01:09:56,040 --> 01:09:59,040 Speaker 2: there for days. A dozen people have been arrested in 1288 01:09:59,160 --> 01:10:03,200 Speaker 2: this practice. Melee one of the drivers is accused of 1289 01:10:03,439 --> 01:10:07,679 Speaker 2: ramming into the law enforcement vehicle and was also armed 1290 01:10:07,720 --> 01:10:10,479 Speaker 2: with a semi automatic weapons. So much for peaceful protests. 1291 01:10:13,160 --> 01:10:19,960 Speaker 2: Assistant DHS Assistant DHS Assistant Secretary of Tritiam McLoughlin, commenting 1292 01:10:20,000 --> 01:10:22,719 Speaker 2: said officers were unable to move, were forced to deploy 1293 01:10:22,800 --> 01:10:26,599 Speaker 2: their weapons and fired defensive shots, and an armed US citizen. 1294 01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:32,080 Speaker 2: The armed woman described as a citizen identified as someone 1295 01:10:32,120 --> 01:10:37,400 Speaker 2: called Marmar Martinez named them the CBP Intelligence Bolden DHS, 1296 01:10:37,479 --> 01:10:41,120 Speaker 2: writing in a statement she allegedly docked agents and posted online, 1297 01:10:41,439 --> 01:10:46,240 Speaker 2: Hey to all my gang lets f those compound word 1298 01:10:46,520 --> 01:10:53,439 Speaker 2: mfor up. Don't let them take anyone. Fortunately, no law 1299 01:10:53,520 --> 01:10:58,720 Speaker 2: enforcement officer seriously injured. But oddly enough, the problem exacerbated 1300 01:10:58,800 --> 01:11:02,479 Speaker 2: because the Chicago police, speaking of local law enforcement and 1301 01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:06,679 Speaker 2: civilian control and maintaining local order, maybe it doesn't exist 1302 01:11:06,720 --> 01:11:10,080 Speaker 2: in Chicago, providing perhaps a justification for Trump deploying the troops, 1303 01:11:10,120 --> 01:11:13,000 Speaker 2: which he apparently is doing this week. I know the 1304 01:11:13,360 --> 01:11:16,240 Speaker 2: presidents of the National Fraternal Order of Police and the 1305 01:11:16,439 --> 01:11:20,320 Speaker 2: Illinois State FOP a little upset with the reports that 1306 01:11:20,360 --> 01:11:24,120 Speaker 2: are widely circulating in the Chicago's police. Chicago's Chief of 1307 01:11:24,200 --> 01:11:30,240 Speaker 2: Patrol directed the officers not to assist the ICE agents 1308 01:11:30,800 --> 01:11:33,960 Speaker 2: as they were being surrounded by protesters on Saturday, court 1309 01:11:33,960 --> 01:11:37,320 Speaker 2: to the FOP President Patrick Yoes, the National FOP President. 1310 01:11:37,360 --> 01:11:39,320 Speaker 2: Details are still emerging, but it appears that officers from 1311 01:11:39,320 --> 01:11:42,840 Speaker 2: the Chicago Police parmer were ordered not to assist a 1312 01:11:42,840 --> 01:11:45,360 Speaker 2: group of ICE agents while they were physically threatened by 1313 01:11:45,400 --> 01:11:47,160 Speaker 2: what appeared to be an angry mob. Let's be clear, 1314 01:11:47,920 --> 01:11:50,200 Speaker 2: both the National FOP and the Illinois FOP believe that 1315 01:11:50,240 --> 01:11:53,720 Speaker 2: when an officer calls for assistance, you answer no matter what. 1316 01:11:54,640 --> 01:12:00,320 Speaker 2: The officers were victims of criminal activity, as defied by 1317 01:12:00,439 --> 01:12:06,200 Speaker 2: state law. How about that. Now, it is a federal 1318 01:12:06,280 --> 01:12:10,240 Speaker 2: law if you accost a Federal Police Department agent, but 1319 01:12:10,280 --> 01:12:13,679 Speaker 2: it's also a state law. Those people are well members 1320 01:12:13,720 --> 01:12:16,759 Speaker 2: of the community, and if you beat one up, according 1321 01:12:16,760 --> 01:12:19,320 Speaker 2: to Illinois law, as there is a law in every 1322 01:12:19,439 --> 01:12:22,960 Speaker 2: state of the books, you can't do that. It constitutes 1323 01:12:23,000 --> 01:12:25,400 Speaker 2: a crime under state law. That's what the police department 1324 01:12:25,479 --> 01:12:27,240 Speaker 2: is supposed to be doing. It shouldn't matter whether you're 1325 01:12:27,240 --> 01:12:31,280 Speaker 2: a federal agent or just some grandmother walk walking down 1326 01:12:31,320 --> 01:12:34,559 Speaker 2: the street to the grocery store. If you get beat up, punched, 1327 01:12:34,800 --> 01:12:38,720 Speaker 2: rammed into by a vehicle, you should be arrested, and 1328 01:12:38,920 --> 01:12:41,080 Speaker 2: Chicago police should be arresting. But if they don't come 1329 01:12:41,120 --> 01:12:45,000 Speaker 2: to your aid, they've been specifically directed to not help. Period. 1330 01:12:45,120 --> 01:12:48,320 Speaker 2: End of story. Read the memo, it's circulating everywhere. That's 1331 01:12:48,360 --> 01:12:57,240 Speaker 2: what it said. So maybe there's an extra element in 1332 01:12:57,400 --> 01:13:02,400 Speaker 2: Chicago given that local isn't helping. They're not helping protect 1333 01:13:02,479 --> 01:13:05,080 Speaker 2: federal property, but they're also not helping protect the lives 1334 01:13:05,240 --> 01:13:09,760 Speaker 2: of human beings. Somebody's got a force state law there. 1335 01:13:09,760 --> 01:13:11,920 Speaker 2: The Feds aren't a position to do it. So anyhow, 1336 01:13:11,960 --> 01:13:13,479 Speaker 2: let's do what Paul's got on this. Paul, thanks for 1337 01:13:13,560 --> 01:13:14,960 Speaker 2: calling this morning. Happy Monday to you. 1338 01:13:16,880 --> 01:13:17,800 Speaker 8: Hey, good morning, Brian. 1339 01:13:18,520 --> 01:13:20,600 Speaker 13: I just wanted to ask you, how is it that 1340 01:13:20,920 --> 01:13:24,559 Speaker 13: a citizen can ascertain, or you know, make with confidence 1341 01:13:25,680 --> 01:13:29,400 Speaker 13: the identification of ice officers if they don't have badges 1342 01:13:29,680 --> 01:13:31,519 Speaker 13: and they're just accosting people off the street. 1343 01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:34,040 Speaker 2: Well, I don't know that they don't have badges, because 1344 01:13:34,040 --> 01:13:35,800 Speaker 2: every time I read they don't have badges, someone from 1345 01:13:35,800 --> 01:13:37,840 Speaker 2: the federal government shows up and says, no, they are 1346 01:13:38,000 --> 01:13:41,240 Speaker 2: labeled as ice officers. So I don't know the answer 1347 01:13:41,280 --> 01:13:43,360 Speaker 2: to the question because the fog of reporting is a 1348 01:13:43,439 --> 01:13:44,639 Speaker 2: bit murky on this one. 1349 01:13:45,600 --> 01:13:48,080 Speaker 13: Well, except for the plenty of videos out there, and 1350 01:13:48,160 --> 01:13:50,720 Speaker 13: you've got people like Benny Johnson, you know, right wing 1351 01:13:50,760 --> 01:13:54,160 Speaker 13: activists Benny Johnson and Christy nom out there wearing ICE things. 1352 01:13:54,200 --> 01:13:57,439 Speaker 13: And I mean Benny Johnson is not an ICE officer, 1353 01:13:57,600 --> 01:14:00,519 Speaker 13: and that's just one of them, you know, the it's 1354 01:14:00,560 --> 01:14:03,760 Speaker 13: become just a public spectacle to go out. And again, 1355 01:14:04,280 --> 01:14:06,400 Speaker 13: if I see one of my neighbors being a costag 1356 01:14:06,520 --> 01:14:08,439 Speaker 13: just because their skin is brown, how am I supposed 1357 01:14:08,479 --> 01:14:11,200 Speaker 13: to know that those people are acting in an official capacity? 1358 01:14:11,240 --> 01:14:13,160 Speaker 2: Well, how would you know that someone's are costing your 1359 01:14:13,200 --> 01:14:16,120 Speaker 2: neighbor because of their skin being brown. That's kind of 1360 01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:18,639 Speaker 2: a conclusion we've reached on your own without any information 1361 01:14:18,760 --> 01:14:20,000 Speaker 2: supporting that conclusion. 1362 01:14:21,360 --> 01:14:22,880 Speaker 1: Well, so why was the. 1363 01:14:22,880 --> 01:14:25,320 Speaker 13: Guy who arrested twice in South Carolina in a construction 1364 01:14:25,560 --> 01:14:28,719 Speaker 13: an American citizen twice just because his skin was brown? 1365 01:14:29,040 --> 01:14:30,760 Speaker 2: I don't know that that's the case, But then again, 1366 01:14:30,760 --> 01:14:32,640 Speaker 2: I don't know which guy you're talking about. Again, the 1367 01:14:32,720 --> 01:14:35,639 Speaker 2: foger reporting on all this. There's so many isolated incidents 1368 01:14:35,720 --> 01:14:38,519 Speaker 2: reported on across this country every given day. I can't 1369 01:14:38,600 --> 01:14:40,840 Speaker 2: keep track of the people honestly or the facts behind 1370 01:14:40,880 --> 01:14:45,640 Speaker 2: each one. Are there atrocities being committed by law enforcement sometimes? 1371 01:14:46,040 --> 01:14:50,559 Speaker 2: Absolutely are Often they're doing their lawful job and trying 1372 01:14:50,560 --> 01:14:53,280 Speaker 2: to enforce the law. Of course they are. Are these 1373 01:14:53,360 --> 01:14:55,519 Speaker 2: problems going to crop up from time to time? Of course, 1374 01:14:55,920 --> 01:14:58,519 Speaker 2: there are bad eggs among all law enforcement officers, much 1375 01:14:58,560 --> 01:15:00,080 Speaker 2: in the way there are bad eggs among the ro 1376 01:15:00,240 --> 01:15:02,840 Speaker 2: testers thinking that they're just merely supporting human rights and 1377 01:15:02,840 --> 01:15:05,240 Speaker 2: people's right to live in a free society. There are 1378 01:15:05,240 --> 01:15:08,120 Speaker 2: always bad actors and bad eggs trying to clean it up. 1379 01:15:08,200 --> 01:15:11,360 Speaker 13: Those are great points, Those are great points. But again 1380 01:15:11,479 --> 01:15:14,840 Speaker 13: that just the fact that you have these people out 1381 01:15:14,880 --> 01:15:17,719 Speaker 13: there right now. There are impersonators just as you mentioned, 1382 01:15:17,720 --> 01:15:22,160 Speaker 13: there's characters everywhere, right and it just seems like a 1383 01:15:22,960 --> 01:15:25,120 Speaker 13: there's a lot of chaos going on to your point, 1384 01:15:25,240 --> 01:15:25,799 Speaker 13: the fog. 1385 01:15:25,640 --> 01:15:27,120 Speaker 1: Of the news reporting and support. 1386 01:15:27,240 --> 01:15:29,880 Speaker 13: But there's plenty of videos, there's plenty of facts, there's 1387 01:15:29,880 --> 01:15:32,599 Speaker 13: plenty of court cases. The one I mentioned in South 1388 01:15:32,680 --> 01:15:34,960 Speaker 13: Carolina is file a lawsuit against the government. 1389 01:15:35,040 --> 01:15:36,680 Speaker 1: There you go again, we think twice, you know. 1390 01:15:37,320 --> 01:15:41,960 Speaker 2: See, now the ultimately if there was a law broken 1391 01:15:42,040 --> 01:15:44,840 Speaker 2: in connection with that, law enforcement officers picking that guy up, 1392 01:15:44,880 --> 01:15:46,640 Speaker 2: picking on him. Whatever, that man's going to have his 1393 01:15:46,760 --> 01:15:49,040 Speaker 2: day in court, and you got to wait for it. 1394 01:15:49,439 --> 01:15:52,439 Speaker 2: You can't draw a conclusion right now and say it 1395 01:15:52,680 --> 01:15:54,960 Speaker 2: is this way or that way. It was right, it 1396 01:15:55,080 --> 01:15:57,799 Speaker 2: was wrong. Neither you nor I really are fully aware. 1397 01:15:58,120 --> 01:16:00,240 Speaker 2: We weren't there at the time. We don't know was 1398 01:16:00,720 --> 01:16:02,560 Speaker 2: that guy being accosted because of the color of his 1399 01:16:02,640 --> 01:16:04,519 Speaker 2: skin or did they have a legitimate reason to pick 1400 01:16:04,600 --> 01:16:06,720 Speaker 2: him up. I don't know. But if they didn't have 1401 01:16:06,760 --> 01:16:09,400 Speaker 2: a legitimate reason, they violated his civil rights. They did 1402 01:16:09,520 --> 01:16:13,120 Speaker 2: abuse a US citizen. Trust me, he'll get paid out. 1403 01:16:13,360 --> 01:16:15,040 Speaker 2: He's gonna have to wait for it. Will the money 1404 01:16:15,160 --> 01:16:19,200 Speaker 2: compensate him for the hassle, his reputation, the perhaps online 1405 01:16:19,280 --> 01:16:22,040 Speaker 2: comments about him. I doubt it. But that's the system 1406 01:16:22,080 --> 01:16:25,120 Speaker 2: that we have here. At least you get something, you're 1407 01:16:25,120 --> 01:16:26,760 Speaker 2: allowed to go to court and fight over it. You're 1408 01:16:26,760 --> 01:16:28,439 Speaker 2: allowed to prove your case in front of the tryer 1409 01:16:28,520 --> 01:16:30,920 Speaker 2: of fact, and if you win, you've won. And if 1410 01:16:30,960 --> 01:16:33,479 Speaker 2: you didn't win, maybe there's a legitimate reason why. And 1411 01:16:33,600 --> 01:16:37,200 Speaker 2: we've been confused on what led to the arrest. It's 1412 01:16:37,240 --> 01:16:39,040 Speaker 2: got to wait for it. And so what I'm all 1413 01:16:39,080 --> 01:16:42,360 Speaker 2: about do we have time, Joe, real quick, Matt, thanks 1414 01:16:42,400 --> 01:16:44,559 Speaker 2: for calling this morning. Welcome to the show. 1415 01:16:45,439 --> 01:16:47,479 Speaker 14: Yeah, Brian, I got a little bit of levity here. 1416 01:16:47,880 --> 01:16:50,760 Speaker 14: I saw a movie over the weekend that reminded me 1417 01:16:50,880 --> 01:16:53,920 Speaker 14: of you and Joe and the show. Yeah, Joe used 1418 01:16:53,960 --> 01:16:57,200 Speaker 14: to have a lead in where Jeff Bridges came on 1419 01:16:57,560 --> 01:17:01,360 Speaker 14: there and said, I'm the dude. Well listen to this. 1420 01:17:06,080 --> 01:17:06,640 Speaker 8: Did you hear it? 1421 01:17:06,880 --> 01:17:09,400 Speaker 2: Yes, I heard it? Big Lebowski, Dude. 1422 01:17:09,720 --> 01:17:11,800 Speaker 12: That was an old movie. 1423 01:17:12,400 --> 01:17:16,639 Speaker 14: Chuck Connor said it, and he was talking about Gregory 1424 01:17:16,840 --> 01:17:20,400 Speaker 14: Peck being the dudes who had a Trumpian moment in 1425 01:17:20,520 --> 01:17:24,960 Speaker 14: the movie where he got shot by this Chuck Connors 1426 01:17:25,280 --> 01:17:28,799 Speaker 14: and it grazed his head. And this Gregory Peck character 1427 01:17:29,080 --> 01:17:31,600 Speaker 14: was all about courage and character and. 1428 01:17:33,479 --> 01:17:33,839 Speaker 12: Character. 1429 01:17:34,160 --> 01:17:36,120 Speaker 1: But anyway, thanks for appreciate that. 1430 01:17:36,479 --> 01:17:39,040 Speaker 2: Maybe a different conclusion can be drawn about The Big Lebowski, 1431 01:17:39,120 --> 01:17:42,280 Speaker 2: which is where our SoundBite comes from. Maybe the Coen 1432 01:17:42,360 --> 01:17:46,400 Speaker 2: Brothers saw that movie and then decided to incorporate the 1433 01:17:46,479 --> 01:17:49,479 Speaker 2: reference in their movie. I tend to doubt it, though, 1434 01:17:50,520 --> 01:17:52,080 Speaker 2: but I appreciate the call. I have a great day. 1435 01:17:52,160 --> 01:17:55,680 Speaker 2: Stick around.

Is not the Bengals, It's 1475 01:19:39,120 --> 01:19:40,920 Speaker 8: not red right. 1476 01:19:40,920 --> 01:19:45,479 Speaker 2: Well, it's that age word hope.

They're fired up, and 1483 01:20:05,040 --> 01:20:08,639 Speaker 8: I think it's a good thing to mention their coach, 1484 01:20:08,960 --> 01:20:14,240 Speaker 8: coach Ramsey, and their principal, Principal Roughing. So congratulations to 1485 01:20:14,360 --> 01:20:19,760 Speaker 8: elder and and and each more success for the rest 1486 01:20:19,800 --> 01:20:21,720 Speaker 8: of the three games of the season they have left. 1487 01:20:21,880 --> 01:20:24,719 Speaker 8: But I think it's important to say that because people 1488 01:20:24,920 --> 01:20:27,680 Speaker 8: are walking around with their heads down a little bit 1489 01:20:28,080 --> 01:20:31,680 Speaker 8: thinking about the Bengals and thinking about the Reds as examples. 1490 01:20:32,560 --> 01:20:34,600 Speaker 8: But we had a there was a great game, and 1491 01:20:35,000 --> 01:20:37,120 Speaker 8: you know, my hat's off to those those young people. 1492 01:20:37,439 --> 01:20:39,200 Speaker 8: And you know, at the end of the day, you know, 1493 01:20:39,320 --> 01:20:42,599 Speaker 8: we sometimes are wondering where's the hope, you know, what's 1494 01:20:42,640 --> 01:20:45,840 Speaker 8: going on with our kids and all the chaoses out there. 1495 01:20:45,960 --> 01:20:49,040 Speaker 8: So it's also nice to highlight, you know, young people 1496 01:20:49,160 --> 01:20:51,760 Speaker 8: doing the right thing at the right time, with the 1497 01:20:51,840 --> 01:20:57,400 Speaker 8: right attitude. So congratulations to them now, little brother. Absolutely no, Look, brother, 1498 01:20:58,600 --> 01:21:01,000 Speaker 8: I have been doing a lot of door to door work, 1499 01:21:01,080 --> 01:21:04,720 Speaker 8: as you can imagine, right, and I can tell you 1500 01:21:04,840 --> 01:21:09,160 Speaker 8: it doesn't matter what neighborhood I'm in. I've never seen 1501 01:21:09,320 --> 01:21:13,519 Speaker 8: anything like what I'm talking about this morning, whether it 1502 01:21:13,640 --> 01:21:17,320 Speaker 8: is in Bond Hill or Roselawn, or whether I'm in 1503 01:21:17,439 --> 01:21:23,000 Speaker 8: Price Hill, whether I'm in Hyde Park or Outlookout, whether 1504 01:21:23,080 --> 01:21:27,599 Speaker 8: I'm in Spring Growth. I'm telling you here's the message. 1505 01:21:28,320 --> 01:21:34,200 Speaker 8: We are concerned about crime in our neighborhood, and city 1506 01:21:34,400 --> 01:21:38,520 Speaker 8: Hall is disconnected from our reality. 1507 01:21:38,760 --> 01:21:40,720 Speaker 2: That's what you're hearing. That's what you're hearing from the 1508 01:21:40,800 --> 01:21:42,800 Speaker 2: people on the after you knock on their door, and 1509 01:21:42,880 --> 01:21:45,240 Speaker 2: that's what they're telling you. That's a consistent message from 1510 01:21:45,360 --> 01:21:46,320 Speaker 2: regardless of what neighbors. 1511 01:21:47,560 --> 01:21:52,800 Speaker 8: That's right, sir, And I'm saying black, white, young, are 1512 01:21:52,920 --> 01:21:56,800 Speaker 8: old Latino. This is what they're saying. Like they lead 1513 01:21:56,880 --> 01:21:58,800 Speaker 8: with it, Smithaman, what are you going to do about crime? 1514 01:22:00,040 --> 01:22:03,320 Speaker 8: Crime is the number one issue I'm concerned some neighbors. 1515 01:22:03,400 --> 01:22:06,559 Speaker 8: Some people will say, Man, I don't feel safe going downtown. 1516 01:22:07,760 --> 01:22:10,559 Speaker 8: So they say it all kinds of different ways, but. 1517 01:22:10,760 --> 01:22:12,760 Speaker 4: They lead with that. 1518 01:22:13,880 --> 01:22:16,360 Speaker 8: And so when you have a mayor that keeps saying 1519 01:22:17,040 --> 01:22:21,960 Speaker 8: we're safe, we're safe, We're safe, it's your perception, not 1520 01:22:22,120 --> 01:22:25,880 Speaker 8: your reality. Crime is going down again. There is this 1521 01:22:26,240 --> 01:22:30,040 Speaker 8: big disconnected You've been talking about it all year because 1522 01:22:30,080 --> 01:22:32,719 Speaker 8: the reality of it is. We know that violent crime 1523 01:22:33,080 --> 01:22:37,280 Speaker 8: is up and people are very concerned about their safety. 1524 01:22:37,439 --> 01:22:43,800 Speaker 8: I was doing a door to door in Roseland on Saturday. 1525 01:22:44,479 --> 01:22:48,240 Speaker 8: So here I see a police police cruisers. I see 1526 01:22:48,720 --> 01:22:52,439 Speaker 8: the tape. This is no exaggeration. I go to the 1527 01:22:52,560 --> 01:22:56,800 Speaker 8: officer or the detective. He says, former Vice mayor, there's 1528 01:22:56,840 --> 01:23:00,200 Speaker 8: a dead body in there. Young man got shot. He's 1529 01:23:00,240 --> 01:23:04,720 Speaker 8: in the stairwell right now, dead. And I'm there in 1530 01:23:04,880 --> 01:23:10,040 Speaker 8: Roseline dropping literature. And this is two blocks down from 1531 01:23:10,479 --> 01:23:15,640 Speaker 8: Reverend Damon Lynch's church in Roseland. And this particular, this 1532 01:23:15,800 --> 01:23:20,439 Speaker 8: particular location, Brian has had at least three shootings in 1533 01:23:20,560 --> 01:23:25,400 Speaker 8: there this year, meaning this is a very active location. 1534 01:23:26,040 --> 01:23:30,559 Speaker 8: Obviously a very poor landlord, and clearly city Hall has 1535 01:23:30,680 --> 01:23:33,360 Speaker 8: their eye off the ball because it's a menace to 1536 01:23:33,479 --> 01:23:38,200 Speaker 8: a really nice neighborhood called Roseline. My point is that 1537 01:23:38,600 --> 01:23:42,439 Speaker 8: that's me just walking around. And so every neighbor who 1538 01:23:43,120 --> 01:23:45,000 Speaker 8: talked to me as I went door to door, because 1539 01:23:45,000 --> 01:23:49,120 Speaker 8: they heard the sirens, they knew that something bad had happened. 1540 01:23:49,640 --> 01:23:52,960 Speaker 8: That's what they were talking about, which makes sense. And 1541 01:23:53,120 --> 01:23:56,840 Speaker 8: so my message to city Hall, or my message to 1542 01:23:56,920 --> 01:23:59,240 Speaker 8: those who are running like Corey Bowman, who I am 1543 01:23:59,320 --> 01:24:03,200 Speaker 8: supporting because he has an upcoming debate this week. Is 1544 01:24:03,360 --> 01:24:07,040 Speaker 8: focused on what citizens are talking about, not what the 1545 01:24:07,120 --> 01:24:11,000 Speaker 8: mayor is talking about. Citizens want to know how are 1546 01:24:11,080 --> 01:24:14,240 Speaker 8: we going to deal with crime for them? That includes 1547 01:24:14,400 --> 01:24:19,800 Speaker 8: supporting our police. I didn't have one African American voter 1548 01:24:20,280 --> 01:24:25,200 Speaker 8: now a key, not one African American voter tell me 1549 01:24:25,880 --> 01:24:29,080 Speaker 8: they don't want the police. They didn't say I want 1550 01:24:29,120 --> 01:24:31,880 Speaker 8: to defund the police. I want to reimagine the police. 1551 01:24:31,960 --> 01:24:35,720 Speaker 8: They said, Smitherman, we got to support our police. We 1552 01:24:35,960 --> 01:24:39,479 Speaker 8: need more police. I don't feel safe. And it didn't 1553 01:24:39,520 --> 01:24:42,320 Speaker 8: matter whether I was talking to an African American citizen 1554 01:24:42,400 --> 01:24:45,320 Speaker 8: in Cincinnati or whether I was talking to a white citizen. 1555 01:24:45,920 --> 01:24:49,040 Speaker 8: So that is where they are. And this notion that 1556 01:24:49,439 --> 01:24:53,920 Speaker 8: African Americans don't want cops or don't support the police. 1557 01:24:54,040 --> 01:24:56,800 Speaker 8: I'm letting you know, I'm going door to door. It 1558 01:24:56,960 --> 01:25:00,879 Speaker 8: is absolutely a lie. What we have our loud voices, 1559 01:25:01,640 --> 01:25:05,000 Speaker 8: voices out there that are making people think that that's 1560 01:25:05,120 --> 01:25:09,280 Speaker 8: where African Americans are, and it's not where African American 1561 01:25:09,479 --> 01:25:12,360 Speaker 8: voters are. And I'm going to suggest it's not where 1562 01:25:12,439 --> 01:25:16,120 Speaker 8: the super super super majority of the African American community 1563 01:25:16,320 --> 01:25:19,719 Speaker 8: is we want good policing. They believe we have good policing. 1564 01:25:20,000 --> 01:25:21,960 Speaker 8: What they now want is the police. 1565 01:25:23,280 --> 01:25:25,240 Speaker 2: I love that message and I'm glad to hear it, 1566 01:25:25,240 --> 01:25:27,960 Speaker 2: and that just confirms what I suspected all along. Obviously 1567 01:25:28,000 --> 01:25:31,000 Speaker 2: you didn't knock on Iris Rollie's front door. Let's continue 1568 01:25:31,040 --> 01:25:34,679 Speaker 2: with Christopher Smith Amen coming up quick plumb type plumbing? 1569 01:25:34,720 --> 01:25:39,559 Speaker 2: Is plumbing done right? I've been pressed. It's seven point 1570 01:25:39,560 --> 01:25:41,400 Speaker 2: thirty three year fifty five. Care see the dark station. 1571 01:25:41,439 --> 01:25:43,240 Speaker 2: Were a little along the last second with Christopher Smith 1572 01:25:43,240 --> 01:25:45,320 Speaker 2: Amen doing the Smith event. But that's okay. We're going 1573 01:25:45,360 --> 01:25:47,680 Speaker 2: to continue now, let's go Christopher. What else is on 1574 01:25:47,760 --> 01:25:48,120 Speaker 2: your mind? 1575 01:25:49,160 --> 01:25:49,360 Speaker 1: Look? 1576 01:25:49,439 --> 01:25:53,479 Speaker 8: Brother, we have an election. Early voting starts tomorrow today. 1577 01:25:53,520 --> 01:25:56,520 Speaker 8: It's the last day to register to vote to participate 1578 01:25:56,560 --> 01:25:59,920 Speaker 8: in that election. And I think it's important to underschool 1579 01:26:00,080 --> 01:26:03,519 Speaker 8: or that you should not vote for nine people when 1580 01:26:03,640 --> 01:26:08,160 Speaker 8: voting for city council. There are still thousands and thousands 1581 01:26:08,240 --> 01:26:12,240 Speaker 8: of voters out there, no matter what neighborhood we canvassed 1582 01:26:12,640 --> 01:26:16,080 Speaker 8: who do not understand how the nine X system works 1583 01:26:16,160 --> 01:26:20,080 Speaker 8: in Cincinnati. And so if you want to flip council, 1584 01:26:20,800 --> 01:26:23,280 Speaker 8: you want to vote for those four or five people 1585 01:26:23,920 --> 01:26:27,320 Speaker 8: that you want to see get it, get elected and stop. 1586 01:26:27,560 --> 01:26:31,320 Speaker 8: Don't vote for anybody else. You're only voting for those 1587 01:26:31,439 --> 01:26:35,280 Speaker 8: people you want to win, So don't fill out nine slops. 1588 01:26:35,320 --> 01:26:39,320 Speaker 8: If you do that, you're doing nothing but deluting your ballot. 1589 01:26:39,439 --> 01:26:43,320 Speaker 8: So that is very very important. I like Linda Matthews, 1590 01:26:43,680 --> 01:26:48,880 Speaker 8: Keating Good and Smitherman, but somebody else might like something else. 1591 01:26:49,560 --> 01:26:52,400 Speaker 8: But it still doesn't have you go beyond four or 1592 01:26:52,479 --> 01:26:55,519 Speaker 8: five people that are running for city councilor if this 1593 01:26:55,680 --> 01:26:59,479 Speaker 8: is critical because if they're nine members of council, Brian, 1594 01:26:59,840 --> 01:27:04,320 Speaker 8: and if Cincinnati can get control of that body, that 1595 01:27:04,680 --> 01:27:08,160 Speaker 8: is another check to the mayor, meaning the mayor cannot 1596 01:27:08,479 --> 01:27:14,160 Speaker 8: do these wild initiatives without the consent of council. And 1597 01:27:14,280 --> 01:27:16,120 Speaker 8: so what you're trying to do is get a majority 1598 01:27:16,280 --> 01:27:20,240 Speaker 8: of council members that support our police. That's if you're 1599 01:27:20,240 --> 01:27:22,960 Speaker 8: in your mind you support the police. How could you 1600 01:27:23,160 --> 01:27:27,320 Speaker 8: vote for the current council members who are defunders, who 1601 01:27:27,400 --> 01:27:31,840 Speaker 8: are reimaginers, who are hiring consultants that are undermining law 1602 01:27:31,960 --> 01:27:36,439 Speaker 8: enforcement every other day? Why would you then cast votes 1603 01:27:36,840 --> 01:27:40,280 Speaker 8: for that collective body. So you're looking out there for 1604 01:27:40,479 --> 01:27:44,280 Speaker 8: new people that can come in and make a sizable 1605 01:27:44,400 --> 01:27:48,240 Speaker 8: change to move a direction that we are currently not 1606 01:27:48,439 --> 01:27:51,040 Speaker 8: in in a different direction. And then, of course Corey 1607 01:27:51,120 --> 01:27:54,320 Speaker 8: Bowman who's running for mayor, and as I walked in, 1608 01:27:54,439 --> 01:27:57,200 Speaker 8: I want to state this case for him. Look when 1609 01:27:57,240 --> 01:28:00,960 Speaker 8: he has this debate this week, I know that this 1610 01:28:01,200 --> 01:28:03,880 Speaker 8: mayor is going to start talking about who his brother is. 1611 01:28:04,560 --> 01:28:07,560 Speaker 8: I don't know who the mayor's brother is. I know 1612 01:28:07,640 --> 01:28:10,080 Speaker 8: who his mom and dad is. It's none of my 1613 01:28:10,240 --> 01:28:12,920 Speaker 8: business and it doesn't matter in the race, but that's 1614 01:28:13,360 --> 01:28:16,479 Speaker 8: a deflection for the mayor. If the mayor starts going 1615 01:28:16,560 --> 01:28:18,479 Speaker 8: down that road, it's because he doesn't want to talk 1616 01:28:18,479 --> 01:28:21,639 Speaker 8: about crime public he doesn't want to talk about roads. 1617 01:28:21,720 --> 01:28:24,200 Speaker 8: He doesn't want to talk about picking up snow and 1618 01:28:24,320 --> 01:28:26,759 Speaker 8: how horrible it was for all of us. I couldn't 1619 01:28:26,840 --> 01:28:30,519 Speaker 8: get my daughter to Seaton, not because the main roads 1620 01:28:30,560 --> 01:28:34,000 Speaker 8: weren't clear, it's because our side roads weren't touched, and 1621 01:28:34,280 --> 01:28:36,879 Speaker 8: so many other people experience that, whether it's a pothole 1622 01:28:36,960 --> 01:28:39,360 Speaker 8: of getting our garbage up. My bottom line to that 1623 01:28:39,600 --> 01:28:43,000 Speaker 8: is watch how the mayor this week's pivots to these 1624 01:28:43,120 --> 01:28:47,080 Speaker 8: things that don't matter, like who Christopher smither Man's brother is. 1625 01:28:47,560 --> 01:28:50,840 Speaker 8: My brother is herb Smitherman or James or Albert or 1626 01:28:50,960 --> 01:28:55,720 Speaker 8: Joe who cares? It doesn't matter. Focus on what's going 1627 01:28:55,800 --> 01:29:00,360 Speaker 8: to make the Cincinnati residents their life better and want 1628 01:29:00,400 --> 01:29:02,679 Speaker 8: to make that case as people are going in. Brian Thomas, 1629 01:29:02,920 --> 01:29:05,559 Speaker 8: I think is one of the most important elections we've 1630 01:29:05,600 --> 01:29:08,600 Speaker 8: had in a long time, just based on what we 1631 01:29:08,760 --> 01:29:12,679 Speaker 8: see happening with crime, how law enforcement is being treated. 1632 01:29:13,439 --> 01:29:17,720 Speaker 8: I spoke to officers. They are humiliated out here. They're 1633 01:29:17,840 --> 01:29:22,120 Speaker 8: morale Your sister, bless her soul. Bless her. She is 1634 01:29:22,200 --> 01:29:27,360 Speaker 8: a retired Cincinnati police officer. She absolutely understands morale is 1635 01:29:27,520 --> 01:29:30,559 Speaker 8: absolutely low. We've got to elect people who are going 1636 01:29:30,640 --> 01:29:33,920 Speaker 8: to support cops to go out there do proactive policing. 1637 01:29:34,200 --> 01:29:37,240 Speaker 8: This doesn't mean, Brian, that we're not going to support 1638 01:29:37,280 --> 01:29:39,719 Speaker 8: the collaborative Agreement or we're not going to do community 1639 01:29:39,760 --> 01:29:43,040 Speaker 8: based policing. These two things can happen at the same time. 1640 01:29:43,360 --> 01:29:46,200 Speaker 8: But I want cops walking up to you in downtown 1641 01:29:46,280 --> 01:29:48,519 Speaker 8: saying why are you here? If there's not a reason 1642 01:29:48,680 --> 01:29:51,920 Speaker 8: I'm detaining you and I'm taking you to another location. 1643 01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:54,639 Speaker 8: I'm not gonna let you just run around and destroy 1644 01:29:54,800 --> 01:29:58,679 Speaker 8: our core, our destroy parts of Clifton are destroy parts 1645 01:29:58,720 --> 01:30:02,400 Speaker 8: of High Park, and so we've got to We've got 1646 01:30:02,520 --> 01:30:04,560 Speaker 8: to elect people that are willing to stand up to 1647 01:30:04,640 --> 01:30:07,040 Speaker 8: these people, these bullies. And right now I think the 1648 01:30:07,120 --> 01:30:09,519 Speaker 8: mayor has been acting like a bully and he has 1649 01:30:09,720 --> 01:30:13,200 Speaker 8: nine members of council who just do exactly what he says. 1650 01:30:13,600 --> 01:30:15,920 Speaker 2: We'll bring Christopher smith Event back for one more seven 1651 01:30:16,000 --> 01:30:20,519 Speaker 2: thirty seven right now fifty five seven one fifty five 1652 01:30:20,600 --> 01:30:23,880 Speaker 2: Karrosite talk station. Another segment with former vice mayor of 1653 01:30:23,880 --> 01:30:27,000 Speaker 2: the City of Cincinnati, soon to be counselmen again, Christopher Smithman. 1654 01:30:27,080 --> 01:30:29,360 Speaker 2: Vote Smithmen in November and only a couple more of 1655 01:30:29,479 --> 01:30:32,200 Speaker 2: Smithman plus a couple more don't vote all nine. That 1656 01:30:32,320 --> 01:30:35,120 Speaker 2: said Christopher at the outset sound advice if you want 1657 01:30:35,160 --> 01:30:36,679 Speaker 2: to flip a counsel and go in the right direction. 1658 01:30:36,800 --> 01:30:39,000 Speaker 2: Christopher Smithman, what else is on your mind this morning? 1659 01:30:39,760 --> 01:30:44,840 Speaker 8: This this government shut down, elephant in the room. You know, 1660 01:30:45,320 --> 01:30:48,679 Speaker 8: this is why so many people are defecting from parties 1661 01:30:48,720 --> 01:30:52,799 Speaker 8: and they're moving and declaring that they're an independent because 1662 01:30:52,840 --> 01:30:56,760 Speaker 8: of this lack of compromise, lack of leadership. Sometimes that 1663 01:30:56,880 --> 01:30:59,559 Speaker 8: both on both sides. But what I will share here 1664 01:30:59,640 --> 01:31:03,200 Speaker 8: in this situation. This is just bad politics for the 1665 01:31:03,240 --> 01:31:07,680 Speaker 8: Democratic Party right here, and I hope that they understand that. 1666 01:31:07,800 --> 01:31:10,880 Speaker 8: As I go door to door, I can't tell you 1667 01:31:11,040 --> 01:31:14,519 Speaker 8: the number of people that said to me, I used 1668 01:31:14,560 --> 01:31:18,799 Speaker 8: to be a Democrat. I am no longer that because 1669 01:31:18,880 --> 01:31:22,720 Speaker 8: the party left me. I promise you I am not 1670 01:31:23,160 --> 01:31:25,960 Speaker 8: exaggerating when I tell you that. So there are a 1671 01:31:26,040 --> 01:31:29,360 Speaker 8: lot of people that are very concerned about the condition 1672 01:31:30,000 --> 01:31:33,799 Speaker 8: of their party. They don't like this conversation about defunding police, 1673 01:31:34,080 --> 01:31:38,040 Speaker 8: and they don't like this discussion about shutting down the government. 1674 01:31:38,479 --> 01:31:41,200 Speaker 8: And many of them believe that this is Senator Schumer 1675 01:31:41,680 --> 01:31:44,520 Speaker 8: who is attempting to not be flanked in the primary 1676 01:31:44,880 --> 01:31:48,679 Speaker 8: by the AOC, meaning this is about his political career, 1677 01:31:49,320 --> 01:31:53,320 Speaker 8: not about the country. And so they act as if 1678 01:31:53,720 --> 01:31:57,880 Speaker 8: we're dumb. I mean, the elected sometimes often act as 1679 01:31:57,920 --> 01:32:00,840 Speaker 8: if we don't understand what's really going going on out there. 1680 01:32:01,320 --> 01:32:04,760 Speaker 8: We absolutely do understand what's going on out there. And 1681 01:32:05,000 --> 01:32:07,800 Speaker 8: once you know, I'm a financial planner, right now, the 1682 01:32:08,000 --> 01:32:12,400 Speaker 8: market isn't taking it serious. Once the market starts taking 1683 01:32:12,439 --> 01:32:15,320 Speaker 8: this thing serious, there are going to be differences and 1684 01:32:15,680 --> 01:32:18,599 Speaker 8: how the market starts to react to what's happening here, 1685 01:32:18,680 --> 01:32:22,679 Speaker 8: So the window is closing on opening up our government 1686 01:32:23,000 --> 01:32:26,920 Speaker 8: and things like our tsa you know being meaning you know, 1687 01:32:27,040 --> 01:32:29,559 Speaker 8: if there's a if there is some type of crisis, 1688 01:32:30,040 --> 01:32:32,000 Speaker 8: Brian Thomas in the middle of all of this, and 1689 01:32:32,080 --> 01:32:34,240 Speaker 8: I'm not calling for that. I don't even want to 1690 01:32:34,520 --> 01:32:38,800 Speaker 8: even say it out loud. This will be absolutely devastating 1691 01:32:39,320 --> 01:32:42,080 Speaker 8: to the Democratic Party. So they've got to come to 1692 01:32:42,160 --> 01:32:44,760 Speaker 8: the table and if if the if the block is 1693 01:32:45,800 --> 01:32:48,640 Speaker 8: we meaning this country is saying, are many of the 1694 01:32:48,720 --> 01:32:52,160 Speaker 8: Republicans on the other side who are currently controlling the Congress, 1695 01:32:52,200 --> 01:32:55,040 Speaker 8: and the and the and the Senate are saying, Look, 1696 01:32:55,560 --> 01:32:59,000 Speaker 8: I want you to reassure me that anybody who came 1697 01:32:59,080 --> 01:33:02,920 Speaker 8: to this country illegally, that we're not going to provide 1698 01:33:03,040 --> 01:33:07,280 Speaker 8: healthcare benefits that we should be providing for Americans and 1699 01:33:07,520 --> 01:33:11,240 Speaker 8: veterans and poor people no matter where they are. We're 1700 01:33:11,280 --> 01:33:13,800 Speaker 8: not going to give those benefits to anybody who's here 1701 01:33:14,000 --> 01:33:18,080 Speaker 8: in our country illegally. Why not just explicitly say that 1702 01:33:19,080 --> 01:33:21,559 Speaker 8: they think we're dumb, meaning at the end of the day, 1703 01:33:22,120 --> 01:33:24,400 Speaker 8: if you're saying that's not what this is about, then 1704 01:33:24,560 --> 01:33:26,200 Speaker 8: just explicitly say. 1705 01:33:26,120 --> 01:33:30,080 Speaker 2: Well, you know they can't Christopher, their Continuing Resolution version 1706 01:33:30,120 --> 01:33:33,879 Speaker 2: which does it deletes the one Big Beautiful Bill provision, 1707 01:33:33,880 --> 01:33:37,600 Speaker 2: which especially prohibits illegal immigrants from getting his aid. It 1708 01:33:37,680 --> 01:33:39,840 Speaker 2: says it in black and white if you read, and 1709 01:33:39,920 --> 01:33:42,640 Speaker 2: it's very difficult reading because all legislation like this is 1710 01:33:42,720 --> 01:33:44,400 Speaker 2: but if you've got all the resource material and the 1711 01:33:44,439 --> 01:33:47,000 Speaker 2: reference material all stacked up together, that's what it boils 1712 01:33:47,040 --> 01:33:49,719 Speaker 2: down to, period. And they can't argue anything in the contrary. 1713 01:33:49,720 --> 01:33:52,080 Speaker 2: That's why you don't hear them rejecting that notion, because 1714 01:33:52,160 --> 01:33:55,040 Speaker 2: it literally what they want literally does just that. 1715 01:33:56,160 --> 01:33:56,600 Speaker 15: And you know the. 1716 01:33:58,200 --> 01:33:58,760 Speaker 8: Agree with you. 1717 01:33:58,960 --> 01:34:00,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know you. 1718 01:34:00,840 --> 01:34:05,080 Speaker 8: I'm saying in negotiations, I want Democrats, Republicans and independence 1719 01:34:05,160 --> 01:34:08,400 Speaker 8: to just think about this if that if the Democrats 1720 01:34:08,439 --> 01:34:11,240 Speaker 8: are saying, that's not what it's about, and the Republicans 1721 01:34:11,280 --> 01:34:14,160 Speaker 8: are saying that's not what it's about, Okay, I'm saying. 1722 01:34:14,200 --> 01:34:16,640 Speaker 8: If I'm on the Democratic side, what I say is 1723 01:34:16,960 --> 01:34:19,360 Speaker 8: I'm going to take that away from you by just 1724 01:34:19,520 --> 01:34:24,679 Speaker 8: making sure I say clearly I re emphasize in lighting 1725 01:34:25,120 --> 01:34:27,160 Speaker 8: that none of these dollars are going to go see 1726 01:34:27,200 --> 01:34:29,720 Speaker 8: anyone who is coming to the country illegally, and we 1727 01:34:29,880 --> 01:34:32,680 Speaker 8: open up the government. You and I both know that 1728 01:34:32,880 --> 01:34:36,640 Speaker 8: that's not the truth. Their agenda is just the opposite 1729 01:34:36,800 --> 01:34:38,880 Speaker 8: of what you and I are discussing, right. 1730 01:34:38,920 --> 01:34:42,559 Speaker 2: And so they're shutting down the American government. That serves well, 1731 01:34:43,200 --> 01:34:44,800 Speaker 2: just work with me and don't start arguing me. That 1732 01:34:44,880 --> 01:34:47,439 Speaker 2: doesn't serve us, But I get your point, but serves 1733 01:34:47,680 --> 01:34:51,040 Speaker 2: all American people. They're shutting it down over the extension 1734 01:34:51,080 --> 01:34:54,080 Speaker 2: of healthcare benefits for I think only roughly one point 1735 01:34:54,160 --> 01:34:58,120 Speaker 2: five million people are impacted by this, this four hundred 1736 01:34:58,120 --> 01:35:00,680 Speaker 2: percent of income cap that was in the original legislation 1737 01:35:00,800 --> 01:35:03,240 Speaker 2: that they only got rid of because of COVID, which 1738 01:35:03,280 --> 01:35:06,400 Speaker 2: doesn't exist anymore. That the original provision ended at the 1739 01:35:06,479 --> 01:35:08,720 Speaker 2: end of this year under the Democrat's own hand. When 1740 01:35:08,760 --> 01:35:11,400 Speaker 2: they wrote at the outset, they knew this day was coming, 1741 01:35:11,479 --> 01:35:14,200 Speaker 2: but they figured, we get used to these incentives, these 1742 01:35:15,120 --> 01:35:19,080 Speaker 2: tax right off things that basically have the American taxpayer 1743 01:35:19,200 --> 01:35:21,920 Speaker 2: covering the cost of the premiums for everybody that's on it. 1744 01:35:22,400 --> 01:35:25,040 Speaker 2: They wrote that into the equation. Now it's the chickens 1745 01:35:25,080 --> 01:35:26,800 Speaker 2: have come home to Ruiz. People got used to that 1746 01:35:26,880 --> 01:35:29,679 Speaker 2: and see that it's disappearing. It would have disappeared anyway, 1747 01:35:29,920 --> 01:35:31,439 Speaker 2: I mean, so. 1748 01:35:33,000 --> 01:35:34,720 Speaker 8: They can't. We can't pay for all of this. 1749 01:35:34,960 --> 01:35:35,719 Speaker 2: No, we can't. 1750 01:35:36,360 --> 01:35:41,280 Speaker 8: What I'm what I'm paying in federal taxes is insane. Right, 1751 01:35:41,800 --> 01:35:45,320 Speaker 8: we can't cover all of this public. This is not 1752 01:35:45,439 --> 01:35:48,080 Speaker 8: about whether we're we don't have a heart or not. 1753 01:35:48,360 --> 01:35:51,040 Speaker 8: Lots of people have hearts. That's why they're charities out here. 1754 01:35:51,320 --> 01:35:54,640 Speaker 8: They give money to charities. But the United States of 1755 01:35:54,680 --> 01:35:58,560 Speaker 8: America has to look out for its own citizens, and 1756 01:35:58,720 --> 01:36:01,600 Speaker 8: that's what we're having this discussion about. We have veterans 1757 01:36:01,640 --> 01:36:04,400 Speaker 8: that are homeless, that have fought in wars, lost the 1758 01:36:04,520 --> 01:36:07,320 Speaker 8: leg and they're out there sleeping in a tent in 1759 01:36:07,439 --> 01:36:11,400 Speaker 8: your community. They're not getting the benefits that they need. 1760 01:36:11,760 --> 01:36:15,559 Speaker 8: But we're talking about providing benefits for others who are 1761 01:36:15,600 --> 01:36:18,840 Speaker 8: who have jumped the fence, jumped the line. See what 1762 01:36:18,920 --> 01:36:21,160 Speaker 8: they try to do is make you and I and 1763 01:36:21,240 --> 01:36:26,040 Speaker 8: others think like we're not for legal immigration, and they 1764 01:36:26,120 --> 01:36:29,000 Speaker 8: try to call us racist, our uncle Tom's or people 1765 01:36:29,120 --> 01:36:32,519 Speaker 8: that are not connected You and I and others. All 1766 01:36:32,640 --> 01:36:37,640 Speaker 8: of us support legal immigration. Most people, if not all 1767 01:36:37,680 --> 01:36:40,519 Speaker 8: of us in this country came from somewhere else other 1768 01:36:40,880 --> 01:36:44,439 Speaker 8: no matter what the circumstance was. We support legal and 1769 01:36:44,640 --> 01:36:47,640 Speaker 8: those people that are in the country legally, who are citizens. 1770 01:36:47,880 --> 01:36:51,040 Speaker 8: This has no impact on them. The discussion we're having is, 1771 01:36:51,200 --> 01:36:54,639 Speaker 8: if you jump the fence, you jumped over the line, 1772 01:36:55,120 --> 01:36:58,400 Speaker 8: and now you're here. Why do we have a party 1773 01:36:58,479 --> 01:37:02,920 Speaker 8: that seems to be focusing on protecting criminals, protecting people 1774 01:37:03,000 --> 01:37:06,320 Speaker 8: that are here illegally. And that's when I knock on doors, 1775 01:37:06,439 --> 01:37:09,920 Speaker 8: and so many Independents and Democrats are telling me their 1776 01:37:10,080 --> 01:37:14,160 Speaker 8: party has left them. Brian Thomas, I didn't leave my party. 1777 01:37:14,280 --> 01:37:18,800 Speaker 8: They left me. And I'm not understanding their direction that 1778 01:37:18,960 --> 01:37:21,040 Speaker 8: they are going in. I'm not getting all of this 1779 01:37:21,160 --> 01:37:23,400 Speaker 8: because every time they turn the TV on you and 1780 01:37:23,520 --> 01:37:26,679 Speaker 8: I see and it sounds like their language is we're 1781 01:37:26,760 --> 01:37:30,439 Speaker 8: protecting criminals, We're putting them first, not those of law 1782 01:37:31,000 --> 01:37:34,640 Speaker 8: by the law abiding citizens. And they're talking about providing 1783 01:37:35,280 --> 01:37:38,880 Speaker 8: health care benefits for those who come to the country illegally, 1784 01:37:39,120 --> 01:37:42,679 Speaker 8: when we have so many Americans that don't have health 1785 01:37:42,760 --> 01:37:43,880 Speaker 8: care themselves. 1786 01:37:45,720 --> 01:37:51,920 Speaker 2: Amen, preaching the gospel there, Christopher Smithlan as always a 1787 01:37:52,000 --> 01:37:53,960 Speaker 2: couple of people chiming in how much they enjoy your 1788 01:37:54,000 --> 01:37:56,200 Speaker 2: logic and reason as you were speaking this morning, and 1789 01:37:56,240 --> 01:37:57,160 Speaker 2: I thoroughly agree. 1790 01:37:57,400 --> 01:37:59,640 Speaker 1: I love you, brother, love I appreciate you so much. 1791 01:37:59,680 --> 01:38:02,240 Speaker 2: Brian's going to impact the stoff nor what will it 1792 01:38:02,320 --> 01:38:05,479 Speaker 2: impact social security? Will it impact Snap and Wick benefits? 1793 01:38:06,040 --> 01:38:08,679 Speaker 2: Brian James on that, followed by a judge Christopher McDowell. 1794 01:38:08,680 --> 01:38:10,720 Speaker 2: He's going to show up in the studio to let 1795 01:38:10,800 --> 01:38:13,880 Speaker 2: you know about the Shenanigans declaration made against the Clerk 1796 01:38:13,920 --> 01:38:16,360 Speaker 2: of Courts to me at listener to lunch of Jim 1797 01:38:16,400 --> 01:38:18,560 Speaker 2: and Jacks Weal, good guy, he's only been on the 1798 01:38:18,600 --> 01:38:20,280 Speaker 2: bench a short period of time. But we'll hear what 1799 01:38:20,439 --> 01:38:24,040 Speaker 2: that is coming up at eight thirty the meantime. I'm 1800 01:38:24,040 --> 01:38:25,240 Speaker 2: not sure if it's true, but on the heels of 1801 01:38:25,280 --> 01:38:28,519 Speaker 2: Christopher Smithman talking about the well the residents of the 1802 01:38:28,560 --> 01:38:33,320 Speaker 2: city of Cincinnati being very concerned about crime, apparently none 1803 01:38:33,360 --> 01:38:36,880 Speaker 2: of them talked about climate change. And I hope this 1804 01:38:37,080 --> 01:38:39,040 Speaker 2: is accurate. I'm going to read it because I trust 1805 01:38:39,120 --> 01:38:44,400 Speaker 2: the source. Laura, appreciate you forwarding the tweet. The post 1806 01:38:45,640 --> 01:38:48,920 Speaker 2: and it's attributed to aftab for mayor where he was 1807 01:38:49,000 --> 01:38:52,000 Speaker 2: at Avondal Town Center and this is what he posted. 1808 01:38:53,040 --> 01:38:55,320 Speaker 2: I'm guessing it's accurate. Someone out there who received this 1809 01:38:55,400 --> 01:38:59,439 Speaker 2: may be able to confirm or deny quote. Climate change 1810 01:38:59,600 --> 01:39:02,960 Speaker 2: hurts everyone, but it hurts our black and brown communities 1811 01:39:03,000 --> 01:39:05,120 Speaker 2: the most. Pause for a moment, you go ahead and 1812 01:39:05,160 --> 01:39:09,360 Speaker 2: decide whether you believe that to be true or not. Anyway, 1813 01:39:09,439 --> 01:39:12,200 Speaker 2: he goes on, that's why local leaders need to step 1814 01:39:12,360 --> 01:39:18,400 Speaker 2: up and confront systemic racism. We here in Cincinnati are 1815 01:39:18,439 --> 01:39:19,880 Speaker 2: proud to be the first city you know how to 1816 01:39:19,960 --> 01:39:25,880 Speaker 2: pass comprehensive zoning reform connected communities, I interjected that legalize 1817 01:39:26,160 --> 01:39:30,920 Speaker 2: housing is housing illegal? I suppose only if there are 1818 01:39:30,960 --> 01:39:33,800 Speaker 2: regulations that micromanage whether or not there could be housing 1819 01:39:33,880 --> 01:39:36,120 Speaker 2: in any given neighborhood. Talk to Corey Bowman about that. 1820 01:39:36,520 --> 01:39:40,360 Speaker 2: Apparently there are significant impediments to well building what you'll 1821 01:39:40,360 --> 01:39:42,040 Speaker 2: want to build in any given neighborhood in the city 1822 01:39:42,040 --> 01:39:44,120 Speaker 2: of Cincinnati, A problem that wouldn't exist if there weren't 1823 01:39:44,120 --> 01:39:47,040 Speaker 2: so many heavy handed regulations from the City of Cincinnati, like, oh, 1824 01:39:47,120 --> 01:39:51,599 Speaker 2: I don't know connected communities for example. Anyway, So past 1825 01:39:51,640 --> 01:39:58,880 Speaker 2: comprehensive zoning reform, he says HM legalizing housing, increasing density 1826 01:40:00,000 --> 01:40:01,840 Speaker 2: in other words, no single family home for you. You 1827 01:40:01,920 --> 01:40:06,600 Speaker 2: must live in an apartment my interpretation. Expanding public transportation, 1828 01:40:06,840 --> 01:40:08,000 Speaker 2: this is just the beginning. 1829 01:40:09,000 --> 01:40:09,120 Speaker 1: Now. 1830 01:40:09,200 --> 01:40:10,680 Speaker 2: Among the things that have to have pur of all 1831 01:40:10,720 --> 01:40:12,479 Speaker 2: believed to be prominent in the hearts and minds of 1832 01:40:12,479 --> 01:40:14,720 Speaker 2: the residents of the city of Cincinnati, as evidenced by 1833 01:40:14,760 --> 01:40:19,240 Speaker 2: this text. AH contrast that with what Christopher Smithman is 1834 01:40:19,360 --> 01:40:22,360 Speaker 2: hearing with his own ears as he walks around the 1835 01:40:22,520 --> 01:40:24,800 Speaker 2: various communities, And there are a variety of different ones 1836 01:40:24,840 --> 01:40:27,639 Speaker 2: in the city of Cincinnati. Everyone seems to be worried 1837 01:40:27,640 --> 01:40:31,519 Speaker 2: about crime, and I imagine some of them may be 1838 01:40:31,640 --> 01:40:35,759 Speaker 2: commented on infrastructure problems as well. We have a priority 1839 01:40:35,840 --> 01:40:40,439 Speaker 2: problem that can be addressed. It can be you just 1840 01:40:40,600 --> 01:40:43,960 Speaker 2: have to think a different way and trust that maybe 1841 01:40:44,320 --> 01:40:47,920 Speaker 2: a different direction for the city in November will help. 1842 01:40:49,080 --> 01:40:51,840 Speaker 2: Right now, you know what you're getting. Are you happy 1843 01:40:51,960 --> 01:40:56,040 Speaker 2: with it? If you're unhappy with the current administration, is 1844 01:40:56,080 --> 01:40:58,280 Speaker 2: it so bad that you say, well, hell, I'm going 1845 01:40:58,360 --> 01:41:02,000 Speaker 2: to take a flyer and give Corey Bowman shot. What 1846 01:41:02,080 --> 01:41:04,640 Speaker 2: has Corey Bowman's suggested in terms of the direction of 1847 01:41:04,680 --> 01:41:08,280 Speaker 2: the city of Cincinnati that you find specifically erroneous, wrong 1848 01:41:08,439 --> 01:41:13,160 Speaker 2: or offensive. I'm trying to be objective about this. You 1849 01:41:13,200 --> 01:41:15,559 Speaker 2: know how I feel about the priorities of aftab parvol 1850 01:41:15,800 --> 01:41:19,479 Speaker 2: I disagree if his priorities were crime and infrastructure, I'd 1851 01:41:19,520 --> 01:41:21,080 Speaker 2: be encouraging you to vote for him if he was 1852 01:41:21,160 --> 01:41:25,719 Speaker 2: delivering on that. Help have to have purvol continue delivering 1853 01:41:25,840 --> 01:41:28,800 Speaker 2: on crime and infrastructure. But that's not what he's running on. 1854 01:41:28,960 --> 01:41:31,120 Speaker 2: In fact, as Christopher pointed out, as you and I 1855 01:41:31,240 --> 01:41:34,040 Speaker 2: both know, he's trying to convince you that you don't 1856 01:41:34,080 --> 01:41:37,760 Speaker 2: believe your own eyes or your own ears, and that 1857 01:41:37,880 --> 01:41:42,160 Speaker 2: you need to think about climate change. Huh. One big 1858 01:41:42,200 --> 01:41:44,000 Speaker 2: world we live in. We're all breathing the same air, 1859 01:41:44,080 --> 01:41:47,240 Speaker 2: and we breathe what China belches out into the world 1860 01:41:47,280 --> 01:41:49,920 Speaker 2: every single day. Think about that in the context of 1861 01:41:50,000 --> 01:41:52,840 Speaker 2: can the city of Cincinnati really impact climate change with 1862 01:41:52,960 --> 01:41:57,240 Speaker 2: its dense housing? No, of course not seven fifty six 1863 01:41:57,320 --> 01:41:59,280 Speaker 2: Right now, if you have KCIT Talks Station Money Money 1864 01:41:59,280 --> 01:42:01,519 Speaker 2: with Brian James X follow by Judge Christopher mcdall at 1865 01:42:01,560 --> 01:42:03,880 Speaker 2: eight thirty, I hope you can stick around today. 1866 01:42:04,000 --> 01:42:04,680 Speaker 5: It's tough head. 1867 01:42:06,840 --> 01:42:08,240 Speaker 11: I need to know that weather in traffic. 1868 01:42:08,560 --> 01:42:09,320 Speaker 3: Listen and you'll know. 1869 01:42:09,840 --> 01:42:16,120 Speaker 2: On fifty five KRS the talk station eight'll five the 1870 01:42:16,160 --> 01:42:19,559 Speaker 2: fifty five kr ce DE Talk station, Happy Monday, Thanks 1871 01:42:19,640 --> 01:42:22,519 Speaker 2: to all we're financial for loaning al Brian James Talk 1872 01:42:22,560 --> 01:42:24,880 Speaker 2: Money matters.

I mean, oh my god, 1882 01:42:39,880 --> 01:42:41,720 Speaker 2: the Bengals just got a touchdown. They're gonna think they 1883 01:42:41,760 --> 01:42:43,439 Speaker 2: had like three minutes left in the game. My wife 1884 01:42:43,520 --> 01:42:45,080 Speaker 2: looked at me, she goes like, they're gonna be able 1885 01:42:45,120 --> 01:42:45,840 Speaker 2: to come back from this. 1886 01:42:46,320 --> 01:42:48,519 Speaker 17: Wow, the Bengals have figured out to prevent defense and 1887 01:42:48,520 --> 01:42:50,439 Speaker 17: we're able to score twice when they were down by 1888 01:42:50,479 --> 01:42:51,040 Speaker 17: four scores. 1889 01:42:51,400 --> 01:42:53,040 Speaker 16: Yeah, somehow that's not exciting. 1890 01:42:53,120 --> 01:42:56,120 Speaker 2: And thank god the opposing team does commit some penalties 1891 01:42:56,200 --> 01:42:59,040 Speaker 2: resulting in or nearing to our benefit. Otherwise, you know, 1892 01:42:59,160 --> 01:43:01,799 Speaker 2: you don't even have a glimmer anyway, Brian James. 1893 01:43:01,640 --> 01:43:02,080 Speaker 1: Who day? 1894 01:43:02,360 --> 01:43:04,680 Speaker 16: Brian, who Day? Is what we're really trying to say here. 1895 01:43:04,920 --> 01:43:07,000 Speaker 2: It is it is all right now. I'm looking at 1896 01:43:07,040 --> 01:43:09,120 Speaker 2: the staw at the front of the Wall Street Jonal 1897 01:43:09,200 --> 01:43:12,080 Speaker 2: right now, Dal Jones futures up a scoch s and 1898 01:43:12,160 --> 01:43:15,160 Speaker 2: p up a scosh. Nasdaq futures up a scosh. Looks 1899 01:43:15,200 --> 01:43:18,280 Speaker 2: like everybody's ignoring the government shutdown. I guess it doesn't 1900 01:43:18,320 --> 01:43:20,280 Speaker 2: impact the stock market, or does it? 1901 01:43:20,360 --> 01:43:24,240 Speaker 17: Brian James, Well, and any headline like that is you 1902 01:43:24,320 --> 01:43:26,280 Speaker 17: can't say it doesn't have an impact, because these are 1903 01:43:26,400 --> 01:43:30,599 Speaker 17: things that do trickle down eventually, but these aren't immediate impact. 1904 01:43:30,680 --> 01:43:32,320 Speaker 17: We've had shutdowns shutdowns before. 1905 01:43:32,880 --> 01:43:33,960 Speaker 2: This is not a new thing. 1906 01:43:34,040 --> 01:43:37,120 Speaker 17: It's just a it's a temper tantrum that happens pretty regularly, 1907 01:43:37,240 --> 01:43:40,600 Speaker 17: like clockwork. Once we get in certain political situations. We 1908 01:43:40,680 --> 01:43:42,720 Speaker 17: got to run the football back and forth. But no, 1909 01:43:42,920 --> 01:43:45,400 Speaker 17: this is not something we're overly concerned about having a 1910 01:43:45,560 --> 01:43:48,479 Speaker 17: major major impact on the overall government, so that the 1911 01:43:49,960 --> 01:43:52,559 Speaker 17: overall stock market rather. The longest shutdown we ever had 1912 01:43:52,720 --> 01:43:55,240 Speaker 17: was in twenty eighteen, and that lasted about thirty five days. 1913 01:43:55,280 --> 01:43:57,519 Speaker 17: The rest of them average about five to seven days, 1914 01:43:57,600 --> 01:43:59,599 Speaker 17: So who knows where we're going to be. We're already 1915 01:43:59,600 --> 01:44:01,720 Speaker 17: several days into this one, and there doesn't seem to 1916 01:44:01,760 --> 01:44:03,560 Speaker 17: be any much willingness to come to the table. But 1917 01:44:03,640 --> 01:44:06,920 Speaker 17: it does not benefit anyone to permanently shut down the government. 1918 01:44:07,000 --> 01:44:08,479 Speaker 17: That doesn't help either side, no matter what. 1919 01:44:08,560 --> 01:44:10,840 Speaker 16: Where, which aslier or which side of the asl you're on. 1920 01:44:11,680 --> 01:44:14,400 Speaker 17: But so the anticipation is that eventually we're going to 1921 01:44:14,640 --> 01:44:16,919 Speaker 17: sort ourselves out and come to some kind of begrudging 1922 01:44:16,960 --> 01:44:18,320 Speaker 17: agreement and move on with our lives. 1923 01:44:18,439 --> 01:44:21,800 Speaker 2: Well, I've seen the cost of the government shutdown translated 1924 01:44:21,840 --> 01:44:24,720 Speaker 2: into like impact on the economy that grow GDP like 1925 01:44:25,160 --> 01:44:29,960 Speaker 2: fifteen billion dollars a week. I mean, part of me 1926 01:44:30,120 --> 01:44:32,280 Speaker 2: wants to suggest that I did earlier in the program 1927 01:44:32,400 --> 01:44:34,760 Speaker 2: that well, you know, there's the make work that the 1928 01:44:34,800 --> 01:44:38,040 Speaker 2: government creates. In other words, you know, they they create 1929 01:44:38,200 --> 01:44:43,000 Speaker 2: opportunities and create new businesses from a whole cloth. I mean, 1930 01:44:43,240 --> 01:44:45,120 Speaker 2: you know, tell people you have to capture carbon, and 1931 01:44:45,200 --> 01:44:46,879 Speaker 2: next thing you know, there's a whole bunch of businesses 1932 01:44:46,920 --> 01:44:49,559 Speaker 2: popping up that are serving the purpose of capturing carbon, 1933 01:44:49,600 --> 01:44:53,040 Speaker 2: which wasn't even an issue five minutes prior. So they 1934 01:44:53,120 --> 01:44:55,960 Speaker 2: do impact what we do and how we live our lives. 1935 01:44:56,280 --> 01:44:58,680 Speaker 2: Brian I was arguing about the tax code, how many 1936 01:44:58,760 --> 01:45:01,320 Speaker 2: accountants are employed because the tax coat is so blank 1937 01:45:01,400 --> 01:45:02,160 Speaker 2: and complicated. 1938 01:45:03,400 --> 01:45:06,040 Speaker 17: It was three presidential elections ago on that specific topic, 1939 01:45:06,120 --> 01:45:07,439 Speaker 17: I believe that we were all going to be doing 1940 01:45:07,479 --> 01:45:08,320 Speaker 17: them on index cards. 1941 01:45:08,560 --> 01:45:09,679 Speaker 16: He did kind of go away. 1942 01:45:09,800 --> 01:45:10,040 Speaker 6: It did. 1943 01:45:10,160 --> 01:45:12,200 Speaker 17: The Into It lobby had an awful lot to do 1944 01:45:12,240 --> 01:45:14,120 Speaker 17: with that. Into It being the company behind TurboTax. 1945 01:45:14,200 --> 01:45:17,160 Speaker 2: There you go and an entire multi multi Can you 1946 01:45:17,200 --> 01:45:19,720 Speaker 2: imagine how much impact of the gross domestic product if 1947 01:45:19,760 --> 01:45:22,160 Speaker 2: you got rid of accountants and the need for them 1948 01:45:22,240 --> 01:45:24,720 Speaker 2: because you well turned the tax code into something that's 1949 01:45:24,760 --> 01:45:27,639 Speaker 2: easy to do by yourself without any assistance. They can't 1950 01:45:27,680 --> 01:45:29,880 Speaker 2: do that. Oh my god, we all die. 1951 01:45:30,280 --> 01:45:34,519 Speaker 17: The federal government is the largest customer of everybody's business 1952 01:45:34,680 --> 01:45:37,160 Speaker 17: on the face of the earth. It simply is, there's 1953 01:45:37,240 --> 01:45:39,439 Speaker 17: just that much money that circulates through the United States 1954 01:45:39,560 --> 01:45:44,120 Speaker 17: federal government. So yes, as these as we slow things down, 1955 01:45:44,320 --> 01:45:45,640 Speaker 17: then you know, we have a lot of people who 1956 01:45:45,680 --> 01:45:47,880 Speaker 17: are now unemployed because the departments were shut down. Some 1957 01:45:47,960 --> 01:45:49,760 Speaker 17: of them are coming back to work because courts are 1958 01:45:49,800 --> 01:45:51,599 Speaker 17: ruling that they shouldn't have been unemployed in the first place. 1959 01:45:52,080 --> 01:45:55,599 Speaker 17: I'm referring, of course, the federal workers here just during 1960 01:45:55,640 --> 01:45:56,400 Speaker 17: this year as we've. 1961 01:45:56,320 --> 01:45:59,120 Speaker 16: Shut things down. So yeah, there's definitely an impact there. 1962 01:45:59,280 --> 01:46:02,800 Speaker 17: And so this government shutdown started on October first, and 1963 01:46:03,040 --> 01:46:06,040 Speaker 17: it has already silenced that most consequential release of this month, 1964 01:46:06,120 --> 01:46:09,000 Speaker 17: that is the September Employment report. So if this lasts 1965 01:46:09,040 --> 01:46:11,920 Speaker 17: for three more weeks, the September CPI inflation numbers are 1966 01:46:11,920 --> 01:46:14,160 Speaker 17: also going to have to be withheld, and the October 1967 01:46:14,240 --> 01:46:16,760 Speaker 17: labor survey is not going to get announced either, because 1968 01:46:16,800 --> 01:46:18,920 Speaker 17: we don't do these things anymore during a shutdown. So 1969 01:46:19,280 --> 01:46:22,000 Speaker 17: we're thinking this is pretty much transitory. We've been through 1970 01:46:22,080 --> 01:46:25,880 Speaker 17: this before, and prior episodes of shutdowns suggest that these 1971 01:46:25,920 --> 01:46:28,840 Speaker 17: furloughed workers will come back with back pay, so that 1972 01:46:29,479 --> 01:46:30,479 Speaker 17: is what has happened in the past. 1973 01:46:30,520 --> 01:46:31,479 Speaker 16: So you're exactly correct. 1974 01:46:31,479 --> 01:46:33,280 Speaker 17: A call out if we're not doing things and that 1975 01:46:33,360 --> 01:46:36,360 Speaker 17: means money is not circulating the way it normally does. 1976 01:46:36,439 --> 01:46:37,280 Speaker 2: That is absolutely true. 1977 01:46:37,439 --> 01:46:40,320 Speaker 17: But historically speaking, we've brought these workers back and given 1978 01:46:40,360 --> 01:46:43,599 Speaker 17: them their backpay, so that should settle itself out well. 1979 01:46:43,720 --> 01:46:45,960 Speaker 2: And you know, I know the blame game is being pointed, 1980 01:46:46,040 --> 01:46:48,680 Speaker 2: and I think at least in so far as US 1981 01:46:48,800 --> 01:46:51,920 Speaker 2: keeping continuing funding levels from last year's budget levels, those 1982 01:46:51,960 --> 01:46:54,960 Speaker 2: were the Democrats numbers, that seems to be the right 1983 01:46:55,000 --> 01:46:57,400 Speaker 2: step for the Republicans. Dude, We're giving you everything you 1984 01:46:57,479 --> 01:46:59,719 Speaker 2: wanted last year, and we're going to continue that until 1985 01:47:00,080 --> 01:47:03,599 Speaker 2: and here's my problem, we finish up the twelve appropriations bill. 1986 01:47:03,680 --> 01:47:05,519 Speaker 2: So both sides are blamed because they don't do their 1987 01:47:05,600 --> 01:47:08,599 Speaker 2: damn job. They haven't done the twelve appropriations bills since 1988 01:47:08,680 --> 01:47:11,120 Speaker 2: like nineteen ninety seven or something crazy like that, so 1989 01:47:11,360 --> 01:47:13,160 Speaker 2: you know, damn all of them. 1990 01:47:13,600 --> 01:47:15,519 Speaker 17: Yeah, I completely agree. I think I think we've just 1991 01:47:15,600 --> 01:47:18,880 Speaker 17: had a point of just just absolute dysfunction. The necessity 1992 01:47:19,040 --> 01:47:22,840 Speaker 17: of moving forward will force a break at some point. 1993 01:47:22,920 --> 01:47:24,960 Speaker 17: Somebody's going to have to blink, because this is just 1994 01:47:25,040 --> 01:47:27,600 Speaker 17: one gigantic game of chicken. We can't shut down the 1995 01:47:27,720 --> 01:47:30,599 Speaker 17: federal government for months upon months or years upon years. 1996 01:47:30,640 --> 01:47:32,160 Speaker 17: It simply isn't going to work that way, and it's 1997 01:47:32,200 --> 01:47:35,040 Speaker 17: going to hurt everyone, which means nobody gets reelected. 1998 01:47:35,320 --> 01:47:36,240 Speaker 16: That's what we're doing right now. 1999 01:47:36,240 --> 01:47:37,920 Speaker 17: I think we're in the phase of this where we 2000 01:47:38,040 --> 01:47:40,200 Speaker 17: have to fight fight, fight, fight, fight so that and 2001 01:47:40,360 --> 01:47:43,160 Speaker 17: give no ground whatsoever so that we will get reelected. 2002 01:47:43,240 --> 01:47:45,760 Speaker 17: We haven't hit the point yet where voters demand, hey, 2003 01:47:45,840 --> 01:47:47,720 Speaker 17: get together and sort this stuff out so we can 2004 01:47:47,760 --> 01:47:49,600 Speaker 17: all move on with our lives. Right now, everybody is 2005 01:47:49,640 --> 01:47:51,679 Speaker 17: simply posturing themselves for their own reelections. 2006 01:47:51,760 --> 01:47:54,240 Speaker 2: Well, and going back to the word, eventually, the markets 2007 01:47:54,240 --> 01:47:58,960 Speaker 2: will eventually start to react to this shutdown. Obviously it 2008 01:47:59,000 --> 01:48:00,760 Speaker 2: hasn't happened yet. I don't know what they're going to 2009 01:48:00,800 --> 01:48:02,919 Speaker 2: do this week. But assuming for the sake of discussion, 2010 01:48:03,000 --> 01:48:06,519 Speaker 2: we have to look back to that longest government shutdown period. 2011 01:48:06,600 --> 01:48:08,880 Speaker 2: How long did it take, if you recall, for the 2012 01:48:08,960 --> 01:48:12,000 Speaker 2: markets to actually reflect the shutdown in the numbers. 2013 01:48:12,960 --> 01:48:15,760 Speaker 17: So it really wasn't that big of a deal in 2014 01:48:16,240 --> 01:48:18,680 Speaker 17: back in twenty eighteen when the federal government shut down 2015 01:48:18,800 --> 01:48:20,880 Speaker 17: for just a few weeks, well thirty five days or 2016 01:48:20,920 --> 01:48:23,840 Speaker 17: so it was. So that was the longest one in history, 2017 01:48:23,880 --> 01:48:25,840 Speaker 17: and it did have a real impact, but it was 2018 01:48:25,880 --> 01:48:28,880 Speaker 17: pretty temporary. So the shutdown started December twenty second of 2019 01:48:28,920 --> 01:48:32,479 Speaker 17: eighteen and ended January twenty fifth of nineteen, and this 2020 01:48:32,680 --> 01:48:35,479 Speaker 17: was over we were already in a broader market sell 2021 01:48:35,520 --> 01:48:37,599 Speaker 17: off that was happening due to trade tensions and federal 2022 01:48:37,680 --> 01:48:40,320 Speaker 17: rate hikes in December of twenty eighteen. That month, the 2023 01:48:40,439 --> 01:48:42,599 Speaker 17: S and P five hundred had dropped nearly ten percent, 2024 01:48:43,120 --> 01:48:45,160 Speaker 17: and that was the worst December since the Great Depression 2025 01:48:45,160 --> 01:48:45,559 Speaker 17: at that time. 2026 01:48:45,600 --> 01:48:48,120 Speaker 16: But that was before the actual shutdown, right, So. 2027 01:48:48,280 --> 01:48:50,760 Speaker 17: By late January of twenty nineteen when it was over, 2028 01:48:50,880 --> 01:48:52,600 Speaker 17: the market had come back sharply. The S and P 2029 01:48:52,720 --> 01:48:55,640 Speaker 17: five hundred rebounded about eight percent within two weeks, and 2030 01:48:55,760 --> 01:48:58,519 Speaker 17: it just looked more It looked at that time more 2031 01:48:58,720 --> 01:49:01,680 Speaker 17: like a temporary market get swing, where we always talk 2032 01:49:01,720 --> 01:49:03,720 Speaker 17: about the market can handle bad news. 2033 01:49:03,800 --> 01:49:04,679 Speaker 2: It loves good news. 2034 01:49:04,920 --> 01:49:07,559 Speaker 17: What it can't handle, what it absolutely hates is no news. 2035 01:49:07,840 --> 01:49:10,880 Speaker 17: So while we're wondering exactly what's going on, the market 2036 01:49:10,960 --> 01:49:13,320 Speaker 17: will wander and money will find its way to less 2037 01:49:13,400 --> 01:49:16,040 Speaker 17: risky assets until we can tell exactly what's coming, until 2038 01:49:16,080 --> 01:49:17,320 Speaker 17: we can kind of see through the fog. 2039 01:49:17,160 --> 01:49:17,519 Speaker 1: A little bit. 2040 01:49:17,760 --> 01:49:20,599 Speaker 2: So once the government shutdowns over that quote unquote threat 2041 01:49:20,680 --> 01:49:24,120 Speaker 2: to the economy is alleviated and things returned to normal. 2042 01:49:24,640 --> 01:49:27,040 Speaker 2: Once the government opens back up under the twenty nineteen law, 2043 01:49:27,120 --> 01:49:29,120 Speaker 2: every federal employee is going to get their back pay. 2044 01:49:29,200 --> 01:49:31,320 Speaker 2: They're not going to be deprived to pay. So that's 2045 01:49:31,400 --> 01:49:33,240 Speaker 2: over with. When we reflect back on all the government 2046 01:49:33,280 --> 01:49:35,120 Speaker 2: shutdowns that we've lived through, and even knows that we 2047 01:49:35,200 --> 01:49:37,680 Speaker 2: haven't personally lived through, we see that the world did 2048 01:49:37,760 --> 01:49:40,599 Speaker 2: not end and everything kind of came back to status quo. 2049 01:49:40,800 --> 01:49:46,040 Speaker 2: So there's no I mean to the average my average listener, 2050 01:49:46,240 --> 01:49:48,799 Speaker 2: they're like, screw it. I don't care that the government 2051 01:49:48,840 --> 01:49:51,519 Speaker 2: shut down because it always goes back to the way 2052 01:49:51,520 --> 01:49:53,400 Speaker 2: it was beforehand and nobody ultimately gets hurt. 2053 01:49:53,600 --> 01:49:56,120 Speaker 16: Yeah, and I am your average listener. I am my 2054 01:49:56,240 --> 01:49:56,799 Speaker 16: own client. 2055 01:49:56,880 --> 01:49:58,519 Speaker 17: And that's the way I think about my own family 2056 01:49:58,560 --> 01:50:00,360 Speaker 17: and my own dollars. There's nothing going on in the 2057 01:50:00,400 --> 01:50:02,400 Speaker 17: headlines right now that causes me to say, you know what, 2058 01:50:02,520 --> 01:50:04,720 Speaker 17: I really need to go deal with my portfolio or 2059 01:50:04,760 --> 01:50:07,479 Speaker 17: do something different change my financial life around that. That's 2060 01:50:07,600 --> 01:50:09,639 Speaker 17: just not the case. This is no fun to go through, 2061 01:50:09,880 --> 01:50:12,520 Speaker 17: and it's gonna hurt. There's no way, there's no sacrifice 2062 01:50:12,520 --> 01:50:14,400 Speaker 17: that's going to be made. So, for example, in that year, 2063 01:50:14,479 --> 01:50:17,799 Speaker 17: the estimate is that by federal workers missing those paychecks, 2064 01:50:17,840 --> 01:50:20,639 Speaker 17: even though they got backpay, that still pulled about about 2065 01:50:20,640 --> 01:50:23,960 Speaker 17: eleven billion dollars out of the GDP that quarter, but 2066 01:50:24,120 --> 01:50:27,160 Speaker 17: about about eight billion of it was recovered when those 2067 01:50:27,200 --> 01:50:29,880 Speaker 17: paychecks finally went out again, meaning the net loss was 2068 01:50:29,960 --> 01:50:33,080 Speaker 17: three billion dollars worth of economic activity. That is nothing 2069 01:50:33,160 --> 01:50:36,640 Speaker 17: when we talk about trillions. So I'm not holding my 2070 01:50:36,720 --> 01:50:37,919 Speaker 17: breath that there's really gonna. 2071 01:50:37,680 --> 01:50:39,800 Speaker 16: Be anything all that momentous. Don't run around and change 2072 01:50:39,840 --> 01:50:41,439 Speaker 16: your four O one K based on these headlines. 2073 01:50:41,640 --> 01:50:44,280 Speaker 2: Well, and I suppose it suggests to politicians who think 2074 01:50:44,280 --> 01:50:46,240 Speaker 2: they're going to get some sort of leg up based 2075 01:50:46,280 --> 01:50:51,760 Speaker 2: upon the government shutdown being someone else's fault. We don't 2076 01:50:51,840 --> 01:50:54,320 Speaker 2: care enough out here about the government shutdown to make 2077 01:50:54,360 --> 01:50:56,839 Speaker 2: that resonate as a political message. I know it's politics 2078 01:50:56,880 --> 01:50:58,800 Speaker 2: brought out money, Brian, but that's kind of what I'm 2079 01:50:58,840 --> 01:50:59,479 Speaker 2: concluding here. 2080 01:51:00,080 --> 01:51:01,360 Speaker 16: Yeah, I would. I would say that's the case. 2081 01:51:01,400 --> 01:51:03,840 Speaker 17: Now this drags on and on and on, then absolutely 2082 01:51:04,320 --> 01:51:05,519 Speaker 17: it will start to trickle through. 2083 01:51:05,640 --> 01:51:07,080 Speaker 16: That's when people are going to start to notice. 2084 01:51:07,120 --> 01:51:08,559 Speaker 17: But right now and then, I think the first people 2085 01:51:08,680 --> 01:51:10,720 Speaker 17: place people would see that is in therefore in case, 2086 01:51:10,720 --> 01:51:12,200 Speaker 17: because the market would start to say, you know what, 2087 01:51:12,280 --> 01:51:13,200 Speaker 17: this has gone on too long. 2088 01:51:13,760 --> 01:51:15,640 Speaker 16: We're going to pull back here a little bit. But 2089 01:51:15,760 --> 01:51:17,519 Speaker 16: that is not We're nowhere near that stage right now. 2090 01:51:17,640 --> 01:51:19,920 Speaker 2: But we may be near the cost of living adjustment 2091 01:51:19,960 --> 01:51:23,240 Speaker 2: and social security and maybe, just maybe this shutdown may 2092 01:51:23,360 --> 01:51:25,560 Speaker 2: have an impact on snapping Wick benefits. Brian's going to 2093 01:51:25,560 --> 01:51:27,759 Speaker 2: answer those two questions in the next segment. Stick around. 2094 01:51:28,200 --> 01:51:30,040 Speaker 2: It's just shy of eight fifteen, right, now, and it's 2095 01:51:30,080 --> 01:51:32,639 Speaker 2: opportunity for you to mention Wolve Zimmer Heating and Cooling. 2096 01:51:32,640 --> 01:51:34,560 Speaker 2: Who's been the trusted name, Hey Monday with all the 2097 01:51:34,760 --> 01:51:38,479 Speaker 2: financials Brian James financial planner he is, and someone who's 2098 01:51:38,479 --> 01:51:40,040 Speaker 2: going to tell about this, tell us about this government 2099 01:51:40,080 --> 01:51:42,439 Speaker 2: shutdown is going to impact Social Security, is going to 2100 01:51:42,560 --> 01:51:45,040 Speaker 2: impact SNAP and work benefits. Let's start with Social Security. 2101 01:51:45,920 --> 01:51:49,080 Speaker 2: The Social Security recipients are eligible for a nice sizable 2102 01:51:49,160 --> 01:51:51,880 Speaker 2: cost of living adjustment. Unlike Joe Strecker, they get one, 2103 01:51:52,000 --> 01:51:54,400 Speaker 2: but the Bureau of Labor Statistics has to do some 2104 01:51:54,600 --> 01:51:57,679 Speaker 2: number crunching before that can happen. I guess the BLS 2105 01:51:57,800 --> 01:51:59,840 Speaker 2: is kind of shut down during the shutdown, so we 2106 01:52:00,000 --> 01:52:01,560 Speaker 2: aren't going to get the stats needed to do a 2107 01:52:01,640 --> 01:52:02,479 Speaker 2: cola adjustment. 2108 01:52:02,960 --> 01:52:05,960 Speaker 17: Yeah, go figure, right, So as soon as we need 2109 01:52:06,080 --> 01:52:08,120 Speaker 17: the we need some new numbers here, we don't have 2110 01:52:08,240 --> 01:52:10,559 Speaker 17: them because we did choose to not report them here 2111 01:52:11,080 --> 01:52:11,799 Speaker 17: very recently. 2112 01:52:11,920 --> 01:52:13,160 Speaker 2: So this is good. 2113 01:52:13,200 --> 01:52:15,920 Speaker 17: So this shutdown that began October first, that could delay 2114 01:52:15,920 --> 01:52:18,599 Speaker 17: the announcement of the twenty twenty six Social Security cola 2115 01:52:18,680 --> 01:52:20,840 Speaker 17: cost of living adjustments that normally happens right in the 2116 01:52:20,880 --> 01:52:23,479 Speaker 17: middle of October. And like you said, it's a Bureau 2117 01:52:23,479 --> 01:52:26,639 Speaker 17: of Labor Statistics. They were told to suspend data collection 2118 01:52:27,080 --> 01:52:30,800 Speaker 17: until we can sort things out, supposedly, and the specifically 2119 01:52:30,920 --> 01:52:33,679 Speaker 17: for the September CPI. That's the last piece we needed 2120 01:52:33,840 --> 01:52:37,320 Speaker 17: to to finish off that COLA calculation. Now, importantly, I 2121 01:52:37,360 --> 01:52:38,880 Speaker 17: want to make sure that that nobody is hearing me 2122 01:52:38,960 --> 01:52:40,559 Speaker 17: saying that checks aren't gonna go out. 2123 01:52:40,560 --> 01:52:41,920 Speaker 16: That's got anohing no no, no, no, no no no. 2124 01:52:42,080 --> 01:52:42,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. 2125 01:52:42,280 --> 01:52:46,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, very important qualification. You will get your Social Security check. 2126 01:52:46,840 --> 01:52:49,280 Speaker 2: It just may not be increased for the cola. But 2127 01:52:49,600 --> 01:52:51,720 Speaker 2: how much money? Let's just cut to the chase on 2128 01:52:51,800 --> 01:52:53,560 Speaker 2: this one, Brian, because I saw the article that you 2129 01:52:53,680 --> 01:52:57,000 Speaker 2: provided in connection with this. You know, I seniors are 2130 01:52:57,160 --> 01:52:59,200 Speaker 2: entitled to this. It's going to be delayed. It'll probably 2131 01:52:59,680 --> 01:53:01,920 Speaker 2: come up eventually when the government opens back up. But 2132 01:53:02,560 --> 01:53:05,960 Speaker 2: can you live without maybe fifty four dollars additional money 2133 01:53:06,000 --> 01:53:07,120 Speaker 2: in your payment each month? 2134 01:53:07,320 --> 01:53:07,519 Speaker 14: Yeah? 2135 01:53:07,760 --> 01:53:10,040 Speaker 17: Let's recall that this this wasn't a whopper that was 2136 01:53:10,120 --> 01:53:12,519 Speaker 17: coming anyway. So analysts had already been projecting about a 2137 01:53:12,560 --> 01:53:15,280 Speaker 17: two point seven to two point eight percent increase in 2138 01:53:15,439 --> 01:53:17,599 Speaker 17: Social Security so it wasn't going to be a huge 2139 01:53:17,920 --> 01:53:19,559 Speaker 17: change too Now, now, that's a lot for some people. 2140 01:53:19,560 --> 01:53:21,040 Speaker 17: I don't mean to say that, no, no, no, every 2141 01:53:21,120 --> 01:53:23,320 Speaker 17: nickel counts. But at the same time, this isn't going 2142 01:53:23,400 --> 01:53:26,320 Speaker 17: to put somebody on the street instantly. It would be 2143 01:53:26,439 --> 01:53:28,000 Speaker 17: nice if we could get our stuff together as a 2144 01:53:28,040 --> 01:53:29,720 Speaker 17: country and figure out exactly how we're going to move 2145 01:53:29,760 --> 01:53:31,280 Speaker 17: forward on these things. But I guess we're going to 2146 01:53:31,320 --> 01:53:33,360 Speaker 17: go through some convulsions before we get there. 2147 01:53:33,600 --> 01:53:36,400 Speaker 2: But fundamentally the check will come a question be how 2148 01:53:36,479 --> 01:53:40,599 Speaker 2: much it is. So now moving over to some critical 2149 01:53:40,680 --> 01:53:45,960 Speaker 2: service lease for some folks, the SNAP Supplemental Assistance Program 2150 01:53:46,080 --> 01:53:48,760 Speaker 2: and WICK benefits. How about these because I know some 2151 01:53:48,800 --> 01:53:50,560 Speaker 2: people are suggesting they're not going to go through, but 2152 01:53:50,760 --> 01:53:52,759 Speaker 2: in other places I've read now they're going to continue 2153 01:53:52,840 --> 01:53:55,200 Speaker 2: just like this a security Yeah, so there's. 2154 01:53:55,080 --> 01:53:56,439 Speaker 16: Two different programs happening here. 2155 01:53:56,479 --> 01:53:59,240 Speaker 17: So there's SNAP and WICK is the one that's more 2156 01:53:59,280 --> 01:54:01,479 Speaker 17: at risk because the way it works, so WICK stands 2157 01:54:01,520 --> 01:54:04,720 Speaker 17: for women, infants, and children, and that basically is very 2158 01:54:04,800 --> 01:54:08,599 Speaker 17: specific to single women and children up to age five. 2159 01:54:09,280 --> 01:54:12,400 Speaker 17: This is a discretionary program, so this means that it 2160 01:54:12,520 --> 01:54:15,200 Speaker 17: has to be voted on yearly from Congress to stay funded. 2161 01:54:15,400 --> 01:54:17,120 Speaker 17: So as soon as the government shuts down, it goes 2162 01:54:17,160 --> 01:54:20,040 Speaker 17: away immediately. That could run out of funds within one 2163 01:54:20,160 --> 01:54:21,880 Speaker 17: or two weeks, according on This is from the that's 2164 01:54:21,920 --> 01:54:24,479 Speaker 17: from the White House's own budget office. That will affect 2165 01:54:24,479 --> 01:54:28,320 Speaker 17: food assistants for about six million mothers and young children nationwide. Now, 2166 01:54:28,360 --> 01:54:32,160 Speaker 17: the other one is SNAP. That's the Supplemental Nutritional Program 2167 01:54:32,520 --> 01:54:35,520 Speaker 17: and all the different states. It's federal money, but the 2168 01:54:35,600 --> 01:54:38,640 Speaker 17: states administer it. Some states have their own program called 2169 01:54:38,720 --> 01:54:42,400 Speaker 17: something else. So, for example, California calls SNAP, CalFresh, Ohio 2170 01:54:42,560 --> 01:54:45,040 Speaker 17: simply chooses to call SNAP SNAP to keep it simple. 2171 01:54:45,600 --> 01:54:48,680 Speaker 17: So October's payments, so these are EBT cards. You see 2172 01:54:48,720 --> 01:54:51,440 Speaker 17: signs at the cash register reflecting ebt cards. That's the 2173 01:54:51,480 --> 01:54:55,280 Speaker 17: SNAP program. October's payments were already loaded onto those ebt 2174 01:54:55,440 --> 01:54:55,920 Speaker 17: debit cards. 2175 01:54:55,960 --> 01:54:57,160 Speaker 16: So it's not gonna affect this month. 2176 01:54:57,360 --> 01:54:59,880 Speaker 17: But if Congress doesn't act soon, then November's SNAP ben 2177 01:55:00,000 --> 01:55:01,400 Speaker 17: if fits could be delayed or reduced. 2178 01:55:01,600 --> 01:55:02,200 Speaker 2: So if you're on. 2179 01:55:02,360 --> 01:55:04,280 Speaker 17: WICK, then you might be you might want to start 2180 01:55:04,280 --> 01:55:06,840 Speaker 17: paying attention to the headlines here. If you're on SNAP, 2181 01:55:06,880 --> 01:55:07,840 Speaker 17: you've got a few more weeks. 2182 01:55:09,000 --> 01:55:12,720 Speaker 2: Well that's fair enough. So ultimately we don't care. In 2183 01:55:12,800 --> 01:55:14,400 Speaker 2: the real world, most people are not going to be 2184 01:55:14,520 --> 01:55:17,440 Speaker 2: completely impacted by this, probably won't even realize the government 2185 01:55:17,480 --> 01:55:19,320 Speaker 2: shut down until it opens back up again. You're a 2186 01:55:19,320 --> 01:55:21,120 Speaker 2: little about your life so the way you went about 2187 01:55:21,160 --> 01:55:22,440 Speaker 2: them before the government shut down. 2188 01:55:23,080 --> 01:55:25,080 Speaker 16: So that is a true statement. 2189 01:55:25,160 --> 01:55:27,920 Speaker 17: Again again, I'm not seeing anything here that should cause 2190 01:55:27,960 --> 01:55:29,960 Speaker 17: somebody out to run out there and go run their 2191 01:55:30,000 --> 01:55:33,040 Speaker 17: lives differently, to make different decisions. These are simply headlines 2192 01:55:33,080 --> 01:55:36,560 Speaker 17: as we go through, everybody getting their say in Congress, 2193 01:55:36,680 --> 01:55:39,320 Speaker 17: and hopefully we will get through this sooner rather than later. 2194 01:55:39,440 --> 01:55:42,040 Speaker 2: Hey, real quick here in a completely different direction, the 2195 01:55:42,120 --> 01:55:44,520 Speaker 2: catch up provision of four to one K that changed 2196 01:55:44,600 --> 01:55:45,360 Speaker 2: this year, didn't it. 2197 01:55:46,360 --> 01:55:48,320 Speaker 17: Yeah, So there was a new rule put in place 2198 01:55:49,120 --> 01:55:52,040 Speaker 17: to allow for more people to put in to put 2199 01:55:52,080 --> 01:55:52,800 Speaker 17: in more money. 2200 01:55:52,880 --> 01:55:54,440 Speaker 16: So there's now the catch up. 2201 01:55:54,480 --> 01:55:57,480 Speaker 17: The way it always was was anybody over fifty could 2202 01:55:57,480 --> 01:56:00,520 Speaker 17: put a little more into the program. That's currently an 2203 01:56:00,560 --> 01:56:03,440 Speaker 17: extra seventy five hundred dollars if you're over fifty, So 2204 01:56:04,280 --> 01:56:06,400 Speaker 17: that basically means that you can put in thirty one 2205 01:56:06,480 --> 01:56:09,240 Speaker 17: thousand dollars if you're simply over fifty. That's not new, 2206 01:56:09,280 --> 01:56:11,680 Speaker 17: that's been there for a while, right, The super catchup 2207 01:56:11,760 --> 01:56:14,520 Speaker 17: this is for if you're between ages sixty and sixty three. 2208 01:56:14,600 --> 01:56:16,960 Speaker 17: This is a part of Secure Act two point zero 2209 01:56:18,120 --> 01:56:21,600 Speaker 17: basically says that you can put in another eleven two 2210 01:56:21,680 --> 01:56:23,240 Speaker 17: hundred and fifty dollars on top of it. 2211 01:56:23,720 --> 01:56:26,440 Speaker 16: So that's the big change that came through there. 2212 01:56:27,880 --> 01:56:30,400 Speaker 2: I've always scratched my head over why there was a 2213 01:56:30,520 --> 01:56:33,320 Speaker 2: maximum contribution to four oh one K in the program. 2214 01:56:33,480 --> 01:56:35,520 Speaker 2: Is that so they ensure that we continue to spend 2215 01:56:35,640 --> 01:56:37,920 Speaker 2: money in the economy as opposed to socket away for 2216 01:56:38,000 --> 01:56:38,520 Speaker 2: our future. 2217 01:56:38,840 --> 01:56:42,040 Speaker 16: My best guess on that, Brian, is that, well, I mean, 2218 01:56:42,080 --> 01:56:42,800 Speaker 16: I'm just not a guess. 2219 01:56:42,840 --> 01:56:45,000 Speaker 17: This is why, because if you're somebody who has that 2220 01:56:45,120 --> 01:56:46,720 Speaker 17: much cash flow and there was no limit on it, 2221 01:56:46,760 --> 01:56:49,320 Speaker 17: then we would be sheltering billions of dollars, if not 2222 01:56:49,440 --> 01:56:53,200 Speaker 17: trillions via four oh one K retirement plans. So it's 2223 01:56:53,280 --> 01:56:56,320 Speaker 17: there to affect the super wealthy from being able to 2224 01:56:56,360 --> 01:56:59,080 Speaker 17: benefit too much from tax planning and starving the government 2225 01:56:59,120 --> 01:57:01,400 Speaker 17: of revenue that needs I. 2226 01:57:01,400 --> 01:57:03,480 Speaker 2: Think the latter point a little bit more starving the 2227 01:57:03,560 --> 01:57:06,400 Speaker 2: government of revenue it thinks it needs. Ah, we are 2228 01:57:07,280 --> 01:57:09,080 Speaker 2: financial planner, will tell you to live within your means. 2229 01:57:09,080 --> 01:57:10,120 Speaker 2: At least that'd be my guests. 2230 01:57:10,360 --> 01:57:11,760 Speaker 16: We don't have those at the Federal guide. 2231 01:57:12,040 --> 01:57:13,720 Speaker 2: Brian James. I had to take a cheap shot at 2232 01:57:13,720 --> 01:57:16,440 Speaker 2: the federal government's reckless pending. Brian James. All with financial 2233 01:57:16,520 --> 01:57:19,120 Speaker 2: appreciate them leading out you every Monday at this time 2234 01:57:19,160 --> 01:57:21,280 Speaker 2: to talk money matters.

And good morning ladies, even 2243 01:57:39,040 --> 01:57:41,520 Speaker 2: though you do remain anonymous, Brian James. Thanks man. We'll 2244 01:57:41,520 --> 01:57:44,160 Speaker 2: talk next month of September eighth of this year, and 2245 01:57:44,440 --> 01:57:46,960 Speaker 2: because he was appointed, has to run for reelection next year, 2246 01:57:47,000 --> 01:57:48,520 Speaker 2: but we'll see if we can't accomplish that, and of 2247 01:57:48,560 --> 01:57:52,360 Speaker 2: course we'll be talking to him about his election next 2248 01:57:52,520 --> 01:57:55,080 Speaker 2: year in the calendar year. But in the meantime a 2249 01:57:55,240 --> 01:57:58,440 Speaker 2: Shenanigan's declaration. Judge McDowell told me at listener lunch he 2250 01:57:58,480 --> 01:58:00,480 Speaker 2: was at Jim and Jackson the river not appreciate the 2251 01:58:00,520 --> 01:58:03,160 Speaker 2: opportunity to meet him and have him come to lunch, 2252 01:58:03,280 --> 01:58:05,520 Speaker 2: but it was my concern over what he told me 2253 01:58:05,560 --> 01:58:07,800 Speaker 2: at Listener lunch, and we're boiling it down here in 2254 01:58:07,840 --> 01:58:10,840 Speaker 2: the morning show Lingo as a Shenanigans declaration before we 2255 01:58:10,920 --> 01:58:13,600 Speaker 2: get to that, Judge McDowell, it's a pleasure of having 2256 01:58:13,640 --> 01:58:17,080 Speaker 2: you here. Oh my god, You and I are basically 2257 01:58:17,160 --> 01:58:20,360 Speaker 2: about the same age, at least based upon your legal 2258 01:58:20,480 --> 01:58:23,520 Speaker 2: resume and what an impressive career you have. I feel 2259 01:58:23,560 --> 01:58:26,760 Speaker 2: like a piker. You are what I and the litigat. 2260 01:58:27,040 --> 01:58:30,640 Speaker 2: I was a litigation attorney. I guess theoretically I still 2261 01:58:30,720 --> 01:58:33,360 Speaker 2: am considering. I have my license, but I don't practice anymore. 2262 01:58:33,840 --> 01:58:38,120 Speaker 2: You are what we lawyers call a true trial attorney. 2263 01:58:38,720 --> 01:58:42,080 Speaker 15: Yeah, there's a difference, a huge There's a difference. See, 2264 01:58:42,080 --> 01:58:44,120 Speaker 15: I've spent a lot of time in courtrooms, both as 2265 01:58:44,520 --> 01:58:48,280 Speaker 15: a prosecutor and as a defense attorney. Also in civil 2266 01:58:48,400 --> 01:58:52,040 Speaker 15: cases plaintiff side and defense side. There is a big 2267 01:58:52,080 --> 01:58:55,440 Speaker 15: difference between someone who pushes paper and somebody who goes 2268 01:58:55,480 --> 01:58:56,280 Speaker 15: into a court room. 2269 01:58:56,600 --> 01:58:58,400 Speaker 2: I acknowledge where I was on that side of the 2270 01:58:58,480 --> 01:59:01,880 Speaker 2: ledger a paper pusher, but you tried literally hundreds of 2271 01:59:02,000 --> 01:59:06,080 Speaker 2: cases successfully. So and of course I want to give 2272 01:59:06,120 --> 01:59:08,680 Speaker 2: you props for serving your country. I know you had 2273 01:59:08,720 --> 01:59:10,040 Speaker 2: enlisted when you were seventeen. 2274 01:59:10,480 --> 01:59:13,480 Speaker 15: Yeah, I did. I grew up in poverty in southern 2275 01:59:13,560 --> 01:59:14,840 Speaker 15: West Virginia and the. 2276 01:59:14,840 --> 01:59:16,280 Speaker 2: Way that's real prop poverty. 2277 01:59:16,400 --> 01:59:18,800 Speaker 15: Oh yeah, it's the kind of poverty where you don't 2278 01:59:18,800 --> 01:59:22,400 Speaker 15: have food. And the army was my way out. And 2279 01:59:22,520 --> 01:59:25,040 Speaker 15: I enlisted in the Army when I was seventeen. And 2280 01:59:25,480 --> 01:59:27,680 Speaker 15: I can tell you everything that I am today is 2281 01:59:27,720 --> 01:59:29,960 Speaker 15: because of the opportunities that were afforded to me by 2282 01:59:30,000 --> 01:59:32,360 Speaker 15: the United States Army. I went to college on the 2283 01:59:32,440 --> 01:59:36,080 Speaker 15: GI Bill, I received an ROTC scholarship, I got an 2284 01:59:36,200 --> 01:59:39,080 Speaker 15: educational delay to go to law school, and I got 2285 01:59:39,120 --> 01:59:40,960 Speaker 15: all that great trial experience in the army. 2286 01:59:41,400 --> 01:59:43,440 Speaker 2: And you did a lot of trial work in the 2287 01:59:43,600 --> 01:59:45,920 Speaker 2: army judge advocate general, and you were in court all 2288 01:59:46,000 --> 01:59:47,000 Speaker 2: the time I was. 2289 01:59:47,400 --> 01:59:50,560 Speaker 15: I was a military prosecutor in Korea. I was a 2290 01:59:50,600 --> 01:59:53,440 Speaker 15: military prosecutor in Stuttgart, Germany, where I was in charge 2291 01:59:53,440 --> 01:59:57,600 Speaker 15: of Southern Germany, Northern Africa, the former East Bloc countries. 2292 01:59:57,640 --> 01:59:59,640 Speaker 15: Then I was a defense attorney, and then I was 2293 01:59:59,800 --> 02:00:02,400 Speaker 15: a finished out my time as a senior defense attorney 2294 02:00:02,400 --> 02:00:05,080 Speaker 15: at Fort Riley, Kansas. Then I came to Cincinnati and 2295 02:00:05,160 --> 02:00:08,120 Speaker 15: I became a partner at Densmore and Shoal, and then 2296 02:00:08,160 --> 02:00:09,800 Speaker 15: I was a partner at Straustroy. 2297 02:00:11,880 --> 02:00:13,839 Speaker 2: They got you to deflect defect. 2298 02:00:13,920 --> 02:00:14,080 Speaker 4: Huh. 2299 02:00:14,200 --> 02:00:16,160 Speaker 2: Straus and Troy got you to effect from Dinsmore. 2300 02:00:16,680 --> 02:00:16,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. 2301 02:00:17,440 --> 02:00:19,200 Speaker 2: No, it's impressive that you were a part of both 2302 02:00:19,200 --> 02:00:21,520 Speaker 2: of those in a decade at both before being appointed 2303 02:00:21,560 --> 02:00:24,560 Speaker 2: by the governor to the Hemilon County Court of Common Please, 2304 02:00:24,600 --> 02:00:27,160 Speaker 2: where you do hear criminal cases as well as civil 2305 02:00:27,600 --> 02:00:29,760 Speaker 2: But going back to your your time as a judge 2306 02:00:29,760 --> 02:00:32,320 Speaker 2: devocate general, this is an illustration of the reality of 2307 02:00:32,400 --> 02:00:37,200 Speaker 2: being an America's military. They put twenty somethings behind the 2308 02:00:37,360 --> 02:00:42,600 Speaker 2: stick of multi multi million dollar aircraft and equipment. Young 2309 02:00:42,680 --> 02:00:46,040 Speaker 2: people are given responsibilities that no response they used the 2310 02:00:46,040 --> 02:00:49,600 Speaker 2: word responsible private corporation would give a young person. No 2311 02:00:49,760 --> 02:00:53,440 Speaker 2: law firm at age twenty two would allow you to 2312 02:00:53,560 --> 02:00:56,720 Speaker 2: go in and try multiple trials. You have to work 2313 02:00:56,800 --> 02:00:59,680 Speaker 2: your way up to that role. That's maybe why you 2314 02:00:59,720 --> 02:01:02,360 Speaker 2: hit some great success as a consequence of the American military. 2315 02:01:02,720 --> 02:01:05,080 Speaker 15: One hundred percent. One of the problems you find in 2316 02:01:05,160 --> 02:01:09,240 Speaker 15: litigation today is so few cases go to trial, that 2317 02:01:09,440 --> 02:01:13,880 Speaker 15: so few attorneys have that courtroom experience. And in the 2318 02:01:13,920 --> 02:01:17,400 Speaker 15: military we were thrown into the crucible right away. 2319 02:01:18,120 --> 02:01:20,680 Speaker 2: Well, in a comment you made off air before we started, 2320 02:01:21,560 --> 02:01:25,280 Speaker 2: anybody who's practiced law and done courtroom work, you want 2321 02:01:25,480 --> 02:01:28,440 Speaker 2: a trial lawyer as opposed to a litigation attorney or 2322 02:01:28,480 --> 02:01:31,280 Speaker 2: someone who never was involved with courtroom work. You want 2323 02:01:31,360 --> 02:01:34,360 Speaker 2: someone like that on the bench. They've dealt with motions, 2324 02:01:34,400 --> 02:01:37,160 Speaker 2: They have been, you know, the attorney advocating on one 2325 02:01:37,200 --> 02:01:39,400 Speaker 2: side or another in front of judges. They know the 2326 02:01:39,760 --> 02:01:43,320 Speaker 2: civil rules, they know evidentiary rules. If you put someone 2327 02:01:43,400 --> 02:01:45,800 Speaker 2: on who maybe was a tax attorney, you never saw 2328 02:01:45,920 --> 02:01:47,760 Speaker 2: time in court, and you appoint them to a judge 2329 02:01:47,800 --> 02:01:50,520 Speaker 2: or they're elected as judge, they don't have the necessary 2330 02:01:50,600 --> 02:01:51,640 Speaker 2: foundational experience. 2331 02:01:52,040 --> 02:01:55,760 Speaker 15: That's absolutely correct. And with my resume, I've been both 2332 02:01:55,800 --> 02:01:59,400 Speaker 15: a prosecutor and a defense attorney, done both plaintiffs work 2333 02:01:59,520 --> 02:02:02,760 Speaker 15: and defense work, so I can see it from all sides, 2334 02:02:02,800 --> 02:02:05,360 Speaker 15: and I know when somebody's pulling my leg and when 2335 02:02:05,360 --> 02:02:06,280 Speaker 15: it's a real motion. 2336 02:02:06,560 --> 02:02:09,040 Speaker 2: Oh, I'm certain of that. And your level of experience, 2337 02:02:09,080 --> 02:02:10,600 Speaker 2: there's no way you could have gone that long and 2338 02:02:10,680 --> 02:02:14,240 Speaker 2: been so successful without that acquiring that knowledge, so impressive 2339 02:02:14,320 --> 02:02:16,600 Speaker 2: background it is and a salute to you for your 2340 02:02:16,600 --> 02:02:19,240 Speaker 2: service work to our country, especially on a day as 2341 02:02:19,280 --> 02:02:21,280 Speaker 2: we part company here for a moment and come back 2342 02:02:21,440 --> 02:02:25,240 Speaker 2: and let him, Judge McDowell do the Shenanigans declaration about 2343 02:02:25,280 --> 02:02:27,520 Speaker 2: their Clerk of Courts.

We're glad you're on the bench, 2365 02:03:30,640 --> 02:03:32,760 Speaker 2: especially in these trying times. We can talk a little 2366 02:03:32,760 --> 02:03:36,040 Speaker 2: bit about the criminal justice system, crime and punishment and 2367 02:03:36,200 --> 02:03:38,320 Speaker 2: maybe bond settings in a little bit, but let's first 2368 02:03:38,360 --> 02:03:40,800 Speaker 2: talk about what you told me at listener lunch at 2369 02:03:40,840 --> 02:03:43,160 Speaker 2: Jim and Jackson. I was obviously very troubled by this, 2370 02:03:43,280 --> 02:03:45,000 Speaker 2: so much so that I said, we've got to get 2371 02:03:45,040 --> 02:03:46,680 Speaker 2: you here on the morning show to talk about it. So, 2372 02:03:47,360 --> 02:03:50,600 Speaker 2: what is going on with the felony murder dock at 2373 02:03:50,720 --> 02:03:51,440 Speaker 2: Judge McDowell. 2374 02:03:51,520 --> 02:03:54,040 Speaker 15: Yeah, let's start off with the concept that the sixth 2375 02:03:54,080 --> 02:03:57,640 Speaker 15: Amendment to the United States Constitution makes our trials public, 2376 02:03:58,360 --> 02:04:01,280 Speaker 15: and part of them being public is the people need 2377 02:04:01,400 --> 02:04:03,640 Speaker 15: to know when those cases are going to be heard. 2378 02:04:04,280 --> 02:04:06,360 Speaker 15: Anybody has the right to come and sit in my 2379 02:04:06,480 --> 02:04:09,400 Speaker 15: courtroom and watch what's going on, and that's enshrined in 2380 02:04:09,440 --> 02:04:12,120 Speaker 15: our constitution because of things that were going on in 2381 02:04:12,200 --> 02:04:14,600 Speaker 15: England with the star chambers where people were being tried 2382 02:04:14,960 --> 02:04:17,760 Speaker 15: in secret. Well, what I discovered about a week and 2383 02:04:17,800 --> 02:04:21,000 Speaker 15: a half ago is that I had a murder case, 2384 02:04:21,240 --> 02:04:25,320 Speaker 15: an aggravated murder case, in my courtroom, and it was 2385 02:04:25,440 --> 02:04:29,320 Speaker 15: very interesting, but there was no media there. And I 2386 02:04:29,800 --> 02:04:31,400 Speaker 15: saw one of my go ahead you. 2387 02:04:31,640 --> 02:04:33,120 Speaker 2: And I'm not going to go into the details. You 2388 02:04:33,240 --> 02:04:35,000 Speaker 2: know the details, and whether you need to offer them 2389 02:04:35,080 --> 02:04:39,000 Speaker 2: or not is immaterial. But I got the impression baseballent 2390 02:04:39,080 --> 02:04:42,000 Speaker 2: you told me it was a particularly heinous felony murder. Oh, 2391 02:04:42,640 --> 02:04:45,320 Speaker 2: it was one that would be very newsworthy. If you 2392 02:04:45,440 --> 02:04:47,880 Speaker 2: try to be objective about what's reportable and what's not, 2393 02:04:48,080 --> 02:04:51,879 Speaker 2: or what's newsworthy what's not. This was clearly a newsworthy murder. 2394 02:04:51,880 --> 02:04:54,200 Speaker 15: Right, And I think if you think about all the 2395 02:04:54,320 --> 02:04:57,200 Speaker 15: murders that happened in this city, and then think in 2396 02:04:57,680 --> 02:05:00,000 Speaker 15: your mind as well, how many times have I heard 2397 02:05:00,320 --> 02:05:03,120 Speaker 15: what happened to those murderers? How many times have I 2398 02:05:03,160 --> 02:05:06,560 Speaker 15: heard the sentences compared to the number of murders, and 2399 02:05:06,640 --> 02:05:09,440 Speaker 15: there's a huge disconnect in my mind much And this 2400 02:05:09,840 --> 02:05:13,800 Speaker 15: is one of the reasons why literally half or over 2401 02:05:13,920 --> 02:05:17,120 Speaker 15: half of the aggravated murders on my docket have been 2402 02:05:17,240 --> 02:05:19,400 Speaker 15: removed from the Clerk of Court's website. 2403 02:05:19,960 --> 02:05:24,040 Speaker 2: By what authority is that, under any circumstances appropriate? And 2404 02:05:24,120 --> 02:05:25,800 Speaker 2: if so, under what circumstances. 2405 02:05:25,880 --> 02:05:29,680 Speaker 15: Yeah, there are reasons why documents and even cases could 2406 02:05:29,720 --> 02:05:34,200 Speaker 15: be removed from the public records, but not that I 2407 02:05:34,280 --> 02:05:36,480 Speaker 15: can determine in this case. And and each time that 2408 02:05:36,600 --> 02:05:39,120 Speaker 15: that occurs, a judge should have to sign off on it. 2409 02:05:39,200 --> 02:05:41,920 Speaker 15: So let's say, for example, you have a drug case 2410 02:05:42,000 --> 02:05:45,280 Speaker 15: and somebody's been arrested and they're working with the police, Well, 2411 02:05:45,320 --> 02:05:47,440 Speaker 15: you want to remove that case from the public records, 2412 02:05:47,480 --> 02:05:50,280 Speaker 15: so all these friends don't know he's working with the police. 2413 02:05:51,200 --> 02:05:54,960 Speaker 15: And a murderer doesn't work with the police, he's incarcerated. 2414 02:05:55,720 --> 02:05:57,520 Speaker 15: And this is a case that had gone on for 2415 02:05:57,600 --> 02:05:59,680 Speaker 15: over a year and a half, as are all the 2416 02:05:59,760 --> 02:06:01,880 Speaker 15: murder cases that are on my DOCA. They've been going 2417 02:06:01,920 --> 02:06:05,120 Speaker 15: on for more than a year, but these cases have 2418 02:06:05,200 --> 02:06:06,760 Speaker 15: been removed. So if you know the name of the 2419 02:06:06,800 --> 02:06:08,320 Speaker 15: defendant and you were to go to the Clerk of 2420 02:06:08,400 --> 02:06:11,000 Speaker 15: Court's website put it in, it would not come up. 2421 02:06:11,320 --> 02:06:13,480 Speaker 15: If you happen to know the case number and you 2422 02:06:13,600 --> 02:06:16,880 Speaker 15: put it in, it would not come up. And so 2423 02:06:17,120 --> 02:06:19,200 Speaker 15: that is one of the reasons why these cases aren't 2424 02:06:19,200 --> 02:06:21,960 Speaker 15: being covered. They've been removed from the public record. The 2425 02:06:22,080 --> 02:06:26,120 Speaker 15: media and the people don't know when these sentencings are occurring. 2426 02:06:26,680 --> 02:06:29,960 Speaker 2: Do we have any judges signing off on the removal 2427 02:06:30,120 --> 02:06:32,120 Speaker 2: or is this just a blanket removal. 2428 02:06:32,400 --> 02:06:34,160 Speaker 15: Yeah, it's very interesting. So when I started to do 2429 02:06:34,320 --> 02:06:37,640 Speaker 15: my investigation into this, one of the older bailiffs in 2430 02:06:37,680 --> 02:06:41,040 Speaker 15: the courthouse pulled a record for where Tracy Winkler, the 2431 02:06:41,120 --> 02:06:44,520 Speaker 15: last Republican, was a Clerk of courts, and on that document, 2432 02:06:44,600 --> 02:06:47,520 Speaker 15: a judge had to sign off if a document or 2433 02:06:47,600 --> 02:06:50,280 Speaker 15: a case was going to be removed from the public 2434 02:06:50,400 --> 02:06:52,120 Speaker 15: docket or the public records. 2435 02:06:52,800 --> 02:06:52,960 Speaker 4: There. 2436 02:06:53,280 --> 02:06:55,560 Speaker 15: We've looked at the cases that have been removed from 2437 02:06:55,600 --> 02:06:58,960 Speaker 15: the Clerk of Court's website and we can find no 2438 02:06:59,560 --> 02:07:03,040 Speaker 15: judge on off so far on any of these cases. 2439 02:07:02,800 --> 02:07:05,720 Speaker 2: Which leads one to guests that someone is behind the 2440 02:07:05,800 --> 02:07:09,000 Speaker 2: scenes in the Clerker Court's office is unilaterally determined this 2441 02:07:09,080 --> 02:07:11,360 Speaker 2: should not be on the public's docket or the docket 2442 02:07:11,920 --> 02:07:15,640 Speaker 2: I mean somebody there's a looming phase it the clerker 2443 02:07:15,720 --> 02:07:16,760 Speaker 2: courts himself. 2444 02:07:17,640 --> 02:07:19,760 Speaker 15: Well, the Clerk of Courts is responsible for that. Yeah, 2445 02:07:20,520 --> 02:07:23,280 Speaker 15: and the buck stops there. In other words, right, And 2446 02:07:23,560 --> 02:07:25,560 Speaker 15: also judges need to be looking at this. The thing 2447 02:07:25,600 --> 02:07:28,080 Speaker 15: of it is when I look at my docket, when 2448 02:07:28,080 --> 02:07:30,680 Speaker 15: I look at I can see all these records, so 2449 02:07:31,640 --> 02:07:34,200 Speaker 15: I wouldn't know that it has been removed from the 2450 02:07:34,280 --> 02:07:35,800 Speaker 15: public record. 2451 02:07:36,040 --> 02:07:38,080 Speaker 2: Because you have to try a case. Obviously you're going 2452 02:07:38,120 --> 02:07:40,640 Speaker 2: to be given the information related to it, but you 2453 02:07:40,800 --> 02:07:42,320 Speaker 2: have to look at the regular docket to see if 2454 02:07:42,360 --> 02:07:44,560 Speaker 2: that case that's right literally on your desk is there. 2455 02:07:44,800 --> 02:07:46,920 Speaker 2: And as you determined in that fellow murder case, the 2456 02:07:46,960 --> 02:07:49,080 Speaker 2: heinous one, you went over and looked, it's not there. 2457 02:07:49,120 --> 02:07:50,240 Speaker 2: You're like, wait, where is. 2458 02:07:50,240 --> 02:07:52,880 Speaker 15: This on the docket, right, which then calls me to 2459 02:07:53,000 --> 02:07:55,360 Speaker 15: tell me. Ask my bailiff look at all the murder 2460 02:07:55,400 --> 02:07:57,640 Speaker 15: cases on my docket and see how many of them 2461 02:07:57,680 --> 02:08:00,960 Speaker 15: have been removed from the Clerk Courts website. And it 2462 02:08:01,040 --> 02:08:03,120 Speaker 15: was over half. And then I went to some other 2463 02:08:03,240 --> 02:08:07,240 Speaker 15: judges and discovered similar things on their dockets as well. 2464 02:08:07,680 --> 02:08:09,080 Speaker 15: It's very curious. 2465 02:08:09,440 --> 02:08:12,160 Speaker 2: Very curious. But in considering the case where there is 2466 02:08:12,200 --> 02:08:15,840 Speaker 2: a legitimate basis, you have a drug dealer who's working 2467 02:08:15,920 --> 02:08:18,800 Speaker 2: with authorities, they've got suppliers. Clearly you want to get those. 2468 02:08:19,080 --> 02:08:21,440 Speaker 2: That person's life could very well be in jeopardy if 2469 02:08:21,480 --> 02:08:23,200 Speaker 2: it's known that they're in front of you and their 2470 02:08:23,240 --> 02:08:25,400 Speaker 2: case is going to be tried, their names out there 2471 02:08:25,480 --> 02:08:28,320 Speaker 2: and you know they're working with police. So there's in 2472 02:08:28,400 --> 02:08:31,760 Speaker 2: a murder case. Sadly, the victim, which is the one 2473 02:08:31,760 --> 02:08:34,320 Speaker 2: that would need to be protected, is no longer in 2474 02:08:34,440 --> 02:08:38,120 Speaker 2: need of protection. They're not going to be threatened, that's right. 2475 02:08:38,280 --> 02:08:40,520 Speaker 15: So yeah, I asked my clerk at the same time 2476 02:08:40,560 --> 02:08:42,720 Speaker 15: because I had the same thought. I said, look at 2477 02:08:42,760 --> 02:08:45,440 Speaker 15: the rape cases that we have next week and see 2478 02:08:45,440 --> 02:08:48,600 Speaker 15: if those rape cases have been removed from the public docket. 2479 02:08:48,720 --> 02:08:49,320 Speaker 15: And they had not. 2480 02:08:50,200 --> 02:08:52,200 Speaker 2: And so they've got a victim there. 2481 02:08:52,400 --> 02:08:56,240 Speaker 15: There, you have a real victim, and that real victim 2482 02:08:56,440 --> 02:08:59,200 Speaker 15: is those cases have not been removed from the public record. 2483 02:08:59,600 --> 02:09:02,600 Speaker 15: But just these aggravated murders, so far as I can 2484 02:09:02,800 --> 02:09:05,600 Speaker 15: I know so far aggravated murder cases. Now, when I 2485 02:09:05,680 --> 02:09:08,320 Speaker 15: talk to other bailiffs in the courthouse, they tell me 2486 02:09:08,440 --> 02:09:10,680 Speaker 15: they've seen this in some of the renew cases in 2487 02:09:10,800 --> 02:09:14,400 Speaker 15: the past, which is the drug cases, which is a 2488 02:09:14,440 --> 02:09:17,880 Speaker 15: good reason I potentially remove it there. Another reason might 2489 02:09:18,000 --> 02:09:22,160 Speaker 15: be that the police early on in a case they 2490 02:09:22,240 --> 02:09:24,160 Speaker 15: have an arrest warrant for somebody and they don't want 2491 02:09:24,160 --> 02:09:26,840 Speaker 15: it to be out in the public that they're out 2492 02:09:26,920 --> 02:09:28,800 Speaker 15: looking for somebody. But as soon as they picked that 2493 02:09:28,960 --> 02:09:32,560 Speaker 15: person up, the case should be put back on to 2494 02:09:32,680 --> 02:09:33,480 Speaker 15: the public docket. 2495 02:09:33,600 --> 02:09:35,880 Speaker 2: Well, and to be in front of you in a 2496 02:09:36,000 --> 02:09:39,000 Speaker 2: case that means it suggests obviously they have been picked up, 2497 02:09:39,040 --> 02:09:41,160 Speaker 2: they have been issued a citation, they've probably been through 2498 02:09:41,160 --> 02:09:44,440 Speaker 2: a bond hearing already. This is way way beyond the 2499 02:09:44,520 --> 02:09:47,880 Speaker 2: time when this information should be maybe legitimately held from 2500 02:09:47,920 --> 02:09:48,280 Speaker 2: the public. 2501 02:09:48,520 --> 02:09:50,280 Speaker 15: Yeah, the case in question was over a year and 2502 02:09:50,320 --> 02:09:50,880 Speaker 15: a half old. 2503 02:09:53,240 --> 02:09:57,360 Speaker 2: Judgment mcde am, I right in understanding that the current 2504 02:09:57,400 --> 02:09:59,520 Speaker 2: clerker Courts has been down this road before. 2505 02:10:00,040 --> 02:10:03,360 Speaker 15: Yeah, hundred percent. What he was doing before was removing 2506 02:10:03,880 --> 02:10:08,440 Speaker 15: the eviction docket cases. So if you'd been evicted from court, 2507 02:10:08,560 --> 02:10:11,800 Speaker 15: he was just removing those and so the municipal court 2508 02:10:11,880 --> 02:10:14,520 Speaker 15: judges had to sue him to get those records put 2509 02:10:14,640 --> 02:10:18,360 Speaker 15: back on to the public docket. The clerk of Courts 2510 02:10:18,720 --> 02:10:22,240 Speaker 15: does not have the power to unilaterally remove documents from 2511 02:10:22,280 --> 02:10:23,120 Speaker 15: the public records. 2512 02:10:23,600 --> 02:10:26,080 Speaker 2: Well, the pause will bring Judge McDowell back for one 2513 02:10:26,160 --> 02:10:27,720 Speaker 2: more Shenanigan's declaration. 2514 02:10:27,880 --> 02:10:29,080 Speaker 1: Be the talk station. 2515 02:10:31,520 --> 02:10:33,560 Speaker 2: And say forty eight or fifty five KRCD talk station 2516 02:10:33,640 --> 02:10:36,360 Speaker 2: Brian Thomas with Judge Christopher McDowell appointed by governor to 2517 02:10:36,400 --> 02:10:37,960 Speaker 2: wine and thank God for Governor to wine for at 2518 02:10:38,040 --> 02:10:40,000 Speaker 2: least something. We've got this great judge on the bench, 2519 02:10:40,240 --> 02:10:43,720 Speaker 2: unbelievably experienced and calling him as he sees them, clerker 2520 02:10:43,800 --> 02:10:46,000 Speaker 2: Courts is apparently hiding a lot of the Fellawy murders 2521 02:10:46,040 --> 02:10:50,240 Speaker 2: from you and me knowing about them. I believe you 2522 02:10:50,280 --> 02:10:51,560 Speaker 2: summed it up this way. You know, if you got 2523 02:10:51,760 --> 02:10:54,520 Speaker 2: a problem with crime, then maybe one of the ways 2524 02:10:54,600 --> 02:10:56,640 Speaker 2: you try to deal with it, it's just covered up 2525 02:10:56,680 --> 02:10:58,560 Speaker 2: and prevent like it doesn't exist. And that's the problem 2526 02:10:58,640 --> 02:11:00,440 Speaker 2: that a lot of people are saying the city of 2527 02:11:00,480 --> 02:11:02,840 Speaker 2: Cincinnati has. They want to tell you that everything's safe, 2528 02:11:02,920 --> 02:11:06,000 Speaker 2: everything's fine, and yet we keep hearing about the murders, 2529 02:11:06,040 --> 02:11:08,520 Speaker 2: the gunshots, the violence. 2530 02:11:08,760 --> 02:11:09,480 Speaker 1: No follow up. 2531 02:11:09,600 --> 02:11:11,760 Speaker 2: As you pointed out, no one tells you what happened 2532 02:11:11,760 --> 02:11:14,720 Speaker 2: to the purpse after they're arrested. But one of the reasons, 2533 02:11:15,000 --> 02:11:17,240 Speaker 2: then what do you do to try to change the narrative? 2534 02:11:17,280 --> 02:11:19,640 Speaker 2: You don't put them on the felony murder dockets, so 2535 02:11:19,720 --> 02:11:21,680 Speaker 2: local news doesn't know that they're actually in front of 2536 02:11:21,720 --> 02:11:25,520 Speaker 2: a judge being tried and maybe convicted. So what is 2537 02:11:25,600 --> 02:11:28,360 Speaker 2: the next step on this? I thought of maybe one 2538 02:11:28,400 --> 02:11:32,080 Speaker 2: of these lawyers out there, maybe the Chris Finny's of 2539 02:11:32,080 --> 02:11:34,280 Speaker 2: the world, or someone would file suit on this. This 2540 02:11:34,400 --> 02:11:35,880 Speaker 2: is what they do all the time. Is there any 2541 02:11:36,440 --> 02:11:38,640 Speaker 2: legal challenges at play here going after the Clerk of 2542 02:11:38,720 --> 02:11:40,920 Speaker 2: Courts for hiding these records or what are you planning 2543 02:11:40,960 --> 02:11:42,919 Speaker 2: on doing next? By way of steps, judge. 2544 02:11:42,880 --> 02:11:45,520 Speaker 15: Yeah, Well, what I'm going to do is, I'm going 2545 02:11:45,760 --> 02:11:48,400 Speaker 15: when these cases are coming before me, now the law 2546 02:11:48,440 --> 02:11:50,960 Speaker 15: come before me within the next month for a report 2547 02:11:51,120 --> 02:11:53,920 Speaker 15: or for some other matter, I'm going to require I'm 2548 02:11:53,920 --> 02:11:56,760 Speaker 15: going to give an issue in order to the prosecutor 2549 02:11:56,880 --> 02:12:00,280 Speaker 15: to tell me why this case is not on the 2550 02:12:00,400 --> 02:12:02,800 Speaker 15: public docket, why it is not on the Clerk of 2551 02:12:02,880 --> 02:12:06,839 Speaker 15: Court's website, because I don't know why there have been removed. 2552 02:12:06,880 --> 02:12:09,120 Speaker 15: So I don't want to just unilaterally remove it and 2553 02:12:09,200 --> 02:12:12,880 Speaker 15: then there could be somebody in danger, for example. But 2554 02:12:13,200 --> 02:12:15,240 Speaker 15: I want to give them an opportunity, and then if 2555 02:12:15,280 --> 02:12:17,440 Speaker 15: they don't provide me with a good explanation for why 2556 02:12:17,520 --> 02:12:21,280 Speaker 15: the sixth Amendment seems to be curtailed in this case, 2557 02:12:21,360 --> 02:12:23,720 Speaker 15: then I want to order and put back on the 2558 02:12:23,800 --> 02:12:27,600 Speaker 15: public docket back on the clerker Court's website where they belong, 2559 02:12:27,960 --> 02:12:31,000 Speaker 15: so everybody knows and can come to court and see 2560 02:12:31,040 --> 02:12:31,800 Speaker 15: how that case ends. 2561 02:12:32,040 --> 02:12:34,440 Speaker 2: And because we have a sixth Amendment, and because the 2562 02:12:34,520 --> 02:12:37,240 Speaker 2: clerk has been down this road before and ordered to 2563 02:12:37,320 --> 02:12:40,200 Speaker 2: put these records back on, you're on firm legal ground 2564 02:12:40,280 --> 02:12:43,360 Speaker 2: in directing that, you would think so, yes, sir, well, 2565 02:12:43,400 --> 02:12:45,240 Speaker 2: I suppose it would end up in court. Kurt Hartman's 2566 02:12:45,280 --> 02:12:45,960 Speaker 2: name came up too. 2567 02:12:46,560 --> 02:12:48,960 Speaker 15: Yeah, I've known Kurt for a long time. Kurt's a 2568 02:12:49,000 --> 02:12:52,040 Speaker 15: great lawyer, so is Chris Finny. There are a number 2569 02:12:52,240 --> 02:12:54,880 Speaker 15: of great lawyers in the city who I'm sure would 2570 02:12:54,960 --> 02:12:57,560 Speaker 15: love to take up this case. And also you would 2571 02:12:57,600 --> 02:13:01,120 Speaker 15: think the inquiry Fox News Channel twelve they also would 2572 02:13:01,160 --> 02:13:03,600 Speaker 15: want to take up this case because they're the ones 2573 02:13:03,800 --> 02:13:05,400 Speaker 15: who don't know when the cases are going to be 2574 02:13:05,480 --> 02:13:05,840 Speaker 15: in court. 2575 02:13:06,200 --> 02:13:09,400 Speaker 2: Prior to today, Judge McDowell, they probably didn't know that 2576 02:13:09,480 --> 02:13:11,760 Speaker 2: these were being removed. You just discovered it by virtue 2577 02:13:11,800 --> 02:13:12,840 Speaker 2: of you being on a bench. 2578 02:13:13,800 --> 02:13:16,520 Speaker 15: Yeah, for a month, and for a month. I found 2579 02:13:16,560 --> 02:13:19,120 Speaker 15: it out right away, and you would think other people 2580 02:13:19,160 --> 02:13:21,800 Speaker 15: would realize it too. But we'll see. I'll take it 2581 02:13:21,920 --> 02:13:24,760 Speaker 15: to take I take them matter very seriously because I 2582 02:13:24,840 --> 02:13:28,960 Speaker 15: think that for our judicial system to work best, the 2583 02:13:29,080 --> 02:13:31,400 Speaker 15: people need to have full access to know. There needs 2584 02:13:31,440 --> 02:13:34,160 Speaker 15: to be full transparency, and also people need to know 2585 02:13:34,600 --> 02:13:37,600 Speaker 15: if aggravated murders are going to prison for life. That 2586 02:13:37,720 --> 02:13:39,160 Speaker 15: should act as a deterrent. 2587 02:13:39,360 --> 02:13:41,480 Speaker 2: Thanks for other people, Well, and you just hit the 2588 02:13:41,560 --> 02:13:42,960 Speaker 2: nail on the head of the direction I was going. 2589 02:13:43,000 --> 02:13:44,920 Speaker 2: We're all worried out here, my listening audience. 2590 02:13:44,960 --> 02:13:45,280 Speaker 1: Anyway. 2591 02:13:45,640 --> 02:13:48,040 Speaker 2: You know, the prosecutors seemed to want to do their 2592 02:13:48,160 --> 02:13:50,080 Speaker 2: job on the heels of the police, who seem to 2593 02:13:50,160 --> 02:13:52,480 Speaker 2: want to do their job. Bad guy commits crime, police 2594 02:13:52,520 --> 02:13:55,720 Speaker 2: issue citation, payed over the prosecutor's office. They needed a 2595 02:13:55,760 --> 02:13:57,640 Speaker 2: grand jury indictment or not as the case maybe, but 2596 02:13:57,680 --> 02:13:59,960 Speaker 2: they're happy to go to the court. The court seems 2597 02:13:59,960 --> 02:14:01,920 Speaker 2: to be the weak link in the chain. The criminal 2598 02:14:02,120 --> 02:14:05,360 Speaker 2: justice system works because it acts as a deterrent. One 2599 02:14:05,440 --> 02:14:08,360 Speaker 2: of other reasons we have one punish the bad guy, 2600 02:14:08,480 --> 02:14:10,920 Speaker 2: gives some satisfaction to the victim, the victim's families, but 2601 02:14:10,960 --> 02:14:14,640 Speaker 2: more fundamentally, you offer an out loud message to those 2602 02:14:14,680 --> 02:14:17,680 Speaker 2: who might commit crime. If you do, you're going to 2603 02:14:17,720 --> 02:14:21,800 Speaker 2: be dealt with harshly. Well, modern judicial theory is no, well, 2604 02:14:21,960 --> 02:14:24,520 Speaker 2: it's not their fault. They went out and shot somebody 2605 02:14:24,680 --> 02:14:27,200 Speaker 2: in the head. They had a tough life while and 2606 02:14:27,280 --> 02:14:29,280 Speaker 2: they let them out either on low bond no bond, 2607 02:14:29,320 --> 02:14:31,720 Speaker 2: which sends a very out loud message, much like an 2608 02:14:31,760 --> 02:14:33,960 Speaker 2: open border sends a message that everybody can come into 2609 02:14:34,000 --> 02:14:36,040 Speaker 2: the country, everybody can commit crime, there's not going to 2610 02:14:36,040 --> 02:14:38,920 Speaker 2: be any consequences, most notably for the juveniles out there. 2611 02:14:40,000 --> 02:14:42,560 Speaker 15: And you also see the repeat offenders. You see the 2612 02:14:42,600 --> 02:14:46,360 Speaker 15: people who are out on bond or out on probation 2613 02:14:46,880 --> 02:14:50,680 Speaker 15: who then commit the same offense or similar offense, another 2614 02:14:50,840 --> 02:14:53,920 Speaker 15: violent offense, who are then still out on the street, 2615 02:14:54,640 --> 02:14:57,480 Speaker 15: hurting the people of Cincinnati Hamilton County. And we just 2616 02:14:58,080 --> 02:15:02,360 Speaker 15: cannot continue to live that way. Everybody should feel like 2617 02:15:02,400 --> 02:15:04,360 Speaker 15: they can go anywhere in the city that they want, 2618 02:15:05,240 --> 02:15:07,520 Speaker 15: and you can't. There are areas of the city that 2619 02:15:07,600 --> 02:15:10,680 Speaker 15: you can't go because you fear for your life, and 2620 02:15:10,840 --> 02:15:13,560 Speaker 15: a lot of the people that you fear are people 2621 02:15:13,600 --> 02:15:16,800 Speaker 15: who are out on bond, out on probation, and it 2622 02:15:17,080 --> 02:15:18,040 Speaker 15: should not be that way. 2623 02:15:18,320 --> 02:15:20,840 Speaker 2: And they've demonstrated willingness to break the law, and they 2624 02:15:20,880 --> 02:15:23,600 Speaker 2: gleefully do so again knowing that apparently there's not going 2625 02:15:23,680 --> 02:15:25,400 Speaker 2: to be any consequence as well, if they're in front 2626 02:15:25,400 --> 02:15:29,440 Speaker 2: of you, Judge McDowell, then I imagine there might be consequences. 2627 02:15:29,480 --> 02:15:33,680 Speaker 2: Appreciate your service to our country and military service work 2628 02:15:33,720 --> 02:15:35,840 Speaker 2: of the JAG. Of course, you're a storied legal career, 2629 02:15:35,920 --> 02:15:37,520 Speaker 2: all the cases you've tried, and I'm glad you're on 2630 02:15:37,560 --> 02:15:41,280 Speaker 2: the bench. You have a responsible, intelligent official on the bench, 2631 02:15:41,400 --> 02:15:44,920 Speaker 2: one who is obviously willing to look into Shenanigan's going 2632 02:15:44,960 --> 02:15:48,080 Speaker 2: on in the clerk a Court's office. Judge McDowell, you 2633 02:15:48,120 --> 02:15:49,520 Speaker 2: know you've got an open form here to give us 2634 02:15:49,560 --> 02:15:51,080 Speaker 2: a follow up and where things are if you find 2635 02:15:51,080 --> 02:15:54,120 Speaker 2: out the reason why the specific person responsible for this 2636 02:15:54,840 --> 02:15:58,040 Speaker 2: was that somebody within the Purvole administration directing the clerk 2637 02:15:58,120 --> 02:15:59,640 Speaker 2: on what to do and not to do. Don't know, 2638 02:15:59,800 --> 02:16:01,840 Speaker 2: but I'm looking forward to finding out. He seems like 2639 02:16:01,880 --> 02:16:02,600 Speaker 2: you're the man to do it. 2640 02:16:02,880 --> 02:16:03,840 Speaker 15: I'll get to the bottom of it. 2641 02:16:04,080 --> 02:16:06,480 Speaker 2: I have a confidence that you will. Judgerick doubt's a 2642 02:16:06,520 --> 02:16:09,600 Speaker 2: real pleasure. We'll be looking forward to supporting your campaign 2643 02:16:09,680 --> 02:16:12,520 Speaker 2: for election in November of next year. Keep up the 2644 02:16:12,520 --> 02:16:14,200 Speaker 2: great work on the bench. In the meantime, best of 2645 02:16:14,280 --> 02:16:16,520 Speaker 2: health and loved you and your family. Oh I got 2646 02:16:16,680 --> 02:16:19,840 Speaker 2: to ask. I know you've only been there for about 2647 02:16:19,840 --> 02:16:23,960 Speaker 2: a month, and I know judges get threats regularly. Have 2648 02:16:24,080 --> 02:16:26,040 Speaker 2: you experienced any of that if you even want to 2649 02:16:26,080 --> 02:16:28,560 Speaker 2: say out loud, because I just worry about that. 2650 02:16:28,600 --> 02:16:30,920 Speaker 15: Kind of stuff. Well, the first thing is I exercised 2651 02:16:30,960 --> 02:16:33,920 Speaker 15: my second amendment, right I figured you did. The second 2652 02:16:33,959 --> 02:16:36,360 Speaker 15: thing is the Hamilton County Chef has been out to 2653 02:16:36,440 --> 02:16:40,080 Speaker 15: my home and they've conducted a full analysis of my 2654 02:16:40,280 --> 02:16:43,640 Speaker 15: home good in my area. They provided me a report 2655 02:16:44,680 --> 02:16:47,080 Speaker 15: as to the weaknesses and the strengths of what I'm doing. 2656 02:16:47,640 --> 02:16:50,920 Speaker 15: And this weekend I was busy installing a home alarm 2657 02:16:51,080 --> 02:16:55,680 Speaker 15: and security system. And you know it's my wife is 2658 02:16:55,760 --> 02:16:58,440 Speaker 15: the one who often bears the burden of it. Of course, 2659 02:16:58,560 --> 02:17:01,000 Speaker 15: you know she could be home alone. And my wife 2660 02:17:01,080 --> 02:17:04,200 Speaker 15: is a West Point graduate. I met her in the military. 2661 02:17:04,800 --> 02:17:06,200 Speaker 15: She also exercises her. 2662 02:17:06,879 --> 02:17:07,520 Speaker 13: She does. 2663 02:17:10,000 --> 02:17:14,760 Speaker 2: Don't mess with missus McDowell. Judge McDowell, great, heaving you on. 2664 02:17:14,760 --> 02:17:16,000 Speaker 2: I'm sorry to put you on a spot like that, 2665 02:17:16,080 --> 02:17:18,200 Speaker 2: but ahead of note, because we live in a very 2666 02:17:18,400 --> 02:17:21,800 Speaker 2: very very dangerous world generally speaking, and social media and 2667 02:17:21,879 --> 02:17:25,280 Speaker 2: docsing really makes it that much worse psychologically at minimum,
