Ten thirty five. 14 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 1: Eric mcthaney is going to be here. He's a great 15 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 1: podcast or a lawyer, just a outstanding, outstanding commentator on 16 00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:00,080 Speaker 1: all things political and all things in the news. So 17 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 1: he'll has some thoughts on this, and I wanted to 18 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: have him on today because I've never had him on 19 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: the Saturday Morning Show before. And I don't do this 20 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 1: show all the time, but when I do fill in 21 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 1: for Mike Callen, I like to bring interesting guests on. 22 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,679 Speaker 1: Eric Nathaney is one of my very favorite guests, and 23 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: so it's going to be my pleasure to introduce him 24 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 1: to the Saturday morning midday audience, the great audience that 25 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 1: Mike Allen has cultivated over these many years. Then our 26 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 1: buddy Jim Serger is going to be here. He's a 27 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,960 Speaker 1: local author. He's got a brand new book out that 28 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 1: is being released today and it's about baseball, and he's 29 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 1: this is a guy that has done many many things 30 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 1: in his life, and one of the things that has 31 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 1: been prominent in his life is his love of baseball, 32 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 1: and now he finally has a book on that. And 33 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: he actually got a blurb from Lance McAllister on his book. 34 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 1: So we will talk to Jim Serger about that. And 35 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: then David E. Arm Brewster when it's his time of 36 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 1: year and spring training is going on. Dave Armbrewster always 37 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: joins us in the final half hour and he'll be 38 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: here to talk about Reds baseball and what is the 39 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 1: very latest from spring training. So we are looking forward 40 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 1: to that. In the meantime, this is going to be 41 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,519 Speaker 1: one of those mornings that we remember for a while. 42 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: If you are like me, you got up this morning, 43 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 1: and I got a little extra this morning, because you know, 44 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: when you come on the radio, you got to do 45 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 1: a little show prep. And so I come down, I 46 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 1: turned the TV on, and the first thing I see 47 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: is the President Trump at the podium, flanked by a 48 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 1: couple of flags, the American flag over his right shoulder, 49 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: no tie on. He's got on his USA hat, a 50 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:44,799 Speaker 1: white hat with the letters USA printed prominently across the front. 51 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 1: And he's delivering as I believe this speech was recorded 52 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:52,959 Speaker 1: at the White House early this morning, and so instead 53 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 1: of doing a live feed, they just put the video 54 00:02:55,520 --> 00:03:00,799 Speaker 1: out and it's him explaining what the action this morning 55 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 1: as it relates to operations in Iran. And so the 56 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: President told the Iranian armed forces to lay down their 57 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: arms or face certain death. He's also calling for the 58 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: people to rise up and seize control. He said, seize 59 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: control of your destiny. As major strikes against Iran commenced, 60 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: join American Israeli strikes against Iran took place over night, 61 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: Donald Trump addressing both the nation and the people of Iran, 62 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 1: announcing the strikes to eliminate the imminent threat from the 63 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: Iranian regime which directly endangers the United States, our troops, 64 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: our bases overseas, and our allies throughout the world. A 65 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 1: short time ago, the United States military began major combat 66 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 1: operations in Iran, and Iran almost immediately launched retaliatory strikes 67 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 1: against Israel. Also am seeing if you're looking at your 68 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: social media feed today, you're going to see the social 69 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: media seed feed peppered with videos that are reportedly coming 70 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 1: from US military installations across the Mideast. And I was 71 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: watching Fox News early this morning and Trey Yengst is 72 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 1: the Fox News reporter who's been covering the Middle East 73 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 1: for many, many years now. He was reporting live from 74 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: Tel Aviv, and as he was reporting live, the air 75 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:40,720 Speaker 1: raid sirens sounded, and they also get notifications on their 76 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: cell phones that there is incoming. And on live TV, 77 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 1: he showed the air defense systems and I don't know, 78 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: I don't know if these were the so called Golden 79 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 1: Dome missiles that were going up to intercept the incoming 80 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: ballistic missiles from Iran, but he showed that on live television. 81 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: And there's video out of Bahrain where there's been something 82 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: major in Bahrain got hit, some military against some military 83 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: bases across the Middle East have had some i would 84 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,799 Speaker 1: call them not major strikes, but some minor strikes. This morning, 85 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: and also saw video of cruise missiles zipping across the 86 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:31,039 Speaker 1: open terrain. Apparently those were the American cruise missiles that 87 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: struck their targets into Ihran this morning. President Trump says 88 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,159 Speaker 1: Iran is the number one state sponsor of terror in 89 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:43,239 Speaker 1: the world, and Iran has recently killed tens of thousands 90 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 1: of its own people. They're developing long range missiles that 91 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 1: can threaten our very good friends and allies in Europe, 92 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: our troops stationed overseas, and could even reach the American homeland. 93 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:01,239 Speaker 1: For these reasons, the United States military undertaken a massive 94 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 1: and ongoing operation to prevent this very wicked, radical dictatorship 95 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 1: from threatening America and our core national security interest. We 96 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 1: were going to destroy their missiles and raise their missile 97 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: industry to the ground. It's going to be totally again obliterated. 98 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:25,479 Speaker 1: So it was just a few months ago when the 99 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 1: United States launched an attack to destroy Aron's nuclear program, 100 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: and that was we dropped the huge bunker busting bomb. 101 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: A lot of that operation was going on in a 102 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: facility that was a dug underground in a mountainous area. 103 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: And so according to the President at that time, we 104 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 1: totally obliterated their ability to build nuclear weapons. But of 105 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: course they have done everything they can to get that 106 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:05,840 Speaker 1: program up and running again, and the Trump wants to 107 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:11,119 Speaker 1: shut it down. This is a bloodthirsty regime, world's number 108 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: one sponsor of terrorist they I'm not going to sit 109 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: here and and uh and do the blame game and 110 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: and all the rest of that about how they were 111 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: able to get their hands on the money necessary to 112 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: get back in a position where they could be the 113 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: world's number one sponsor of terror, where they could reconstitute 114 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: their nuclear program, where they could aren't rearmed themselves. We 115 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: don't need to do all that. And it's a good day, 116 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: as I told Gary Jeff Walker, a good day to 117 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 1: say a prayer. So we we will see what happens. 118 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: And what I was talking to a friend of mine yesterday, 119 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 1: uh and and and d W. Wilbert is my my 120 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: go to guy for what I call national security and 121 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: Mid East affairs because he was undercovered for the CIA, 122 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: spent many many years in the Middle East, still has 123 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: a number of high level contacts there, and so he 124 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 1: was talking about you know this is he. You know, 125 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 1: his contacts in Jordan, his contacts in Turkey, his contacts 126 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 1: throughout the Middle East, talk about the necessity for this 127 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 1: regime in Iran to be decapitated. And he said, he 128 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:46,679 Speaker 1: told me yesterday that the the chance for a successful 129 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 1: settlement went in. There have been ongoing negotiations for some 130 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: time now. Those chances were slimmed to begin with. And 131 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 1: it's no surprise him or anyone else who was in 132 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: the know in that region that this that we are 133 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 1: at the stage right now of where we are. And 134 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: the exact words he said to me in a text 135 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 1: message yesterday was that this hand was dealt long ago. 136 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 1: So with the evacuations that we had of personnel from 137 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: different embassies there, things that were going on, it looked 138 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 1: like that this was going to happen. And so I 139 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 1: texted him early this morning and I said, you called 140 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: it again. He is on the road today, so east east, 141 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: traveling by vehicle, so he's not really going to have 142 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 1: the opportunity to join us. But that is kind of 143 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: the heads up and where I was on the curve 144 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: on this yesterday. Let's see air raids signed. Air raid 145 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: sirens sounded across Israel and Iran, or as a RAM 146 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 1: launched retaliate retaliatory ballistic strikes, Israeli Defense Force said in 147 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: a series of statements of what it said were multiple 148 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 1: Iranian barrages. The IDF identified missiles launched from Iran towards Israel. 149 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: At this time, the IAF is operating to intercept and 150 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 1: or intercept and strike threats where necessary to remove those threats. So, 151 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: and that's one of the things I was talking about 152 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,839 Speaker 1: yesterday with him, is that how involved is Israel going 153 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 1: to be in this? And there were very likely there 154 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 1: were operations that were already underway in that area that 155 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,679 Speaker 1: we do not know about. So it's likely that all 156 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 1: that will come to light over the span of the 157 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 1: the next several days or several weeks. So we'll see 158 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: how long this goes on, and we'll let it play out. 159 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: I think it would be foolish to jump to any 160 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: conclusions at this point about what is going to happen, 161 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: what is likely to happen, how this is going to 162 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 1: play out. I think we're just in a spot right now. 163 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,079 Speaker 1: Whe're going we're we are going to have to wait 164 00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:07,679 Speaker 1: and see, and I think the reaction from the Democrats 165 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 1: in this country will be fairly predictable, although thank god, 166 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 1: I haven't seen a ton of stuff from them yet, 167 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,560 Speaker 1: but you know it's coming. We've got people on hold. 168 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,080 Speaker 1: The first caller in this morning was from Marymont, and 169 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 1: so we say good morning to Louise and Marymont and Louise, 170 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:26,839 Speaker 1: good morning. You're on seven hundred WLW. 171 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 2: Good morning, Dan, and welcome to the show. 172 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 1: Thank you. 173 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 2: I'm taking my issue is different than the issue at hand. 174 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 3: You said it all by saying, we. 175 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 2: Really need to pray our troops and so many people 176 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 2: our lives. 177 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 3: Are going to be in danger. 178 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:49,439 Speaker 2: Yes, ma'am, so my issue. And I called in last 179 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 2: week and was on hold and they ran out of time. 180 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 2: But you're familiar, Dan with this situation with these kids 181 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 2: that broke into Kroger's and sold this, that and the other. 182 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 2: And I want all your listeners to realize that they 183 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 2: don't already that this is a bigger story that the 184 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 2: media isn't covering. This was one of those situations where 185 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 2: they let the kids go to an anti ice protest. 186 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 1: Well, that's what I was going to say. This whole 187 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: thing that happened at the Kroger store and we're talking 188 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 1: about what happened in North College Hill, right. It was 189 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 1: an offshoot of an anti ice walkout that we've seen 190 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 1: at other high schools in the area. I know Turkin 191 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: did one, want it, Hills did one, Princeton did one. 192 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 1: So this was I guess at North College Hill and 193 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 1: then several of these kids, not all of them, but 194 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 1: a pretty large group of. 195 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 2: Them cost one hundred. 196 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:46,839 Speaker 1: Dan start crazy. How much damage do they do in there? 197 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 1: Do we know? 198 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 2: Well, well, they're not giving out a figure. But my 199 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 2: whole issue here, Dan, is when the media is covering 200 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 2: it this week and saying they identified ninety nine, so 201 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 2: are these kids. 202 00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:58,839 Speaker 4: They're not saying the. 203 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,720 Speaker 2: Part about at school took them out for an anti 204 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 2: ice protest. They're leaving that out of there. And my 205 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,959 Speaker 2: question is when these kids are allowed to get out 206 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 2: of school for this. I know I'm old, but in 207 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 2: my day, if we got out of school, our parents 208 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 2: had to sign off on it, And I'm wondering are 209 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 2: they getting sign offs from these parents when they aren't 210 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,440 Speaker 2: taking these kids out of school. I'm curious about that. 211 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 2: So if one of your listeners knows, I'd be curious 212 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 2: about that. My other point is they broke into Kroger's. Okay, 213 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 2: they go right to the alcohol beer section and do 214 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 2: all this damage, and I feel that there should be 215 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 2: restitution made by the parents and props of school on this. 216 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, Dan, these big high profile cases 217 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 2: or these school shootings. I know this is a lot 218 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,960 Speaker 2: different than the school shooting, but there's two really big 219 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:59,319 Speaker 2: cases recently where the parents themselves are being held accountable 220 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:02,440 Speaker 2: and being in prison when their kids do this kind 221 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 2: of stuff. 222 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 1: Well, I think it's important that the parents are held 223 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 1: accountable for this. And one of the difficulties is from 224 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 1: at least I can tell you from my perspective is 225 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 1: that if these are all high school kids, the vast 226 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 1: majority of them are probably going to be under the 227 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 1: age of eighteen. So you cannot walk into a Kroger 228 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: store without being surveilled the entire time you're there. They've 229 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 1: got video coverage of that entire store, and it's there 230 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 1: for a reason, so there is video footage of all this. 231 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: I would imagine that police and detectives are able to 232 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 1: look at this footage and identify probably a vast majority 233 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 1: of these kids. So my feeling on this is is 234 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: that the school knows who did it, and those kids 235 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 1: need to be dealt with. It's very unlikely I think 236 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 1: that the identities of these kids will be made public. 237 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 1: But the school of the superintendent came out the next 238 00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:00,080 Speaker 1: day and said that they would be dealt with. But 239 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 1: but you make a good point you talk about we're 240 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 1: the parents. Were the parents aware that this walkout was 241 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 1: going to take place? And I would I would wager 242 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 1: that the vast majority of parents had no idea that 243 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 1: this was going to happen. The kids, there's probably a 244 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 1: group of kids who saw other high schools doing this 245 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 1: thought this would be a fun thing to do, get 246 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 1: out of class for an hour or two hours, whatever 247 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: the case may be. But there are there are so 248 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: many school systems in this area that are too weak 249 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 1: to stand up to these kids, to tell them if 250 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 1: I mean, how do they enforce discipline in North College Hill? 251 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 1: I have no idea, But you get you have to 252 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 1: have an administration that is willing to stand up to 253 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 1: these kids and tell them that if you walk out 254 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 1: of class, there's going to be consequences, serious consequence, And 255 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 1: we don't have that, You know we and I know 256 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: because I followed closely the situation that happened in Forest 257 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 1: Hills when the kids at Turpentheis School. There was a 258 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 1: plan to walk out for Anderson High School, but that 259 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 1: one fell apart. But the kids at Turpin High School, 260 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,120 Speaker 1: we're we're going to have a walkout there. And this 261 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 1: was known at least a day or two days before 262 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 1: this walkout was going to happen, and the school board, 263 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 1: the administration of the school did nothing to stop it 264 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 1: and essentially let it happen. They didn't organize it, they 265 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 1: didn't really give it their blessing, but they didn't do 266 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 1: anything to stand in the way of it either. So 267 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: that is, to my way of thinking, that is a 268 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: complete lack of leadership within the school district and within 269 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 1: the school system. And the results that we had with 270 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 1: the Kroger store being damaged is a direct result of 271 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 1: that kind of week leadership, right. 272 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 2: And I think it's unfair to us is consumers at Kroger's. 273 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 4: I mean, each day sure will. 274 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 2: Be passed on to us. So make the parents come 275 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 2: up with the perhaps the school, you know, I mean 276 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 2: this is a school sponsored issue. They got these kids 277 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 2: all round up. The kids probably give a darn about 278 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 2: the whole ice thing, and they probably don't even know. 279 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 1: About it, probably don't even know what ICE stands for. 280 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 1: You don't even know it stands for the majority of 281 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,160 Speaker 1: those kids. You tell me what what ice is an acronym? 282 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 1: What does it mean? What does it stand for? The 283 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 1: majority of the kids wouldn't be able to tell you. 284 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 5: Right. 285 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 2: The teachers are probably behind it too, But nonetheless, as consumers, 286 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 2: we should not absorb any of the damage to Kroger's 287 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:28,400 Speaker 2: and then the reputational costs. They interview people that were 288 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 2: in Kroger's at the time, even some males, they were 289 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 2: scared to death. I mean I'd be scared. I'd have 290 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 2: danced lash backs every time I'd go in there. 291 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 1: I don't want to I don't want to go. Look, 292 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 1: I hate to go grocery shopping to begin with, but 293 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,840 Speaker 1: the last thing I want to do. It's a trauma 294 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,120 Speaker 1: when I go grocery, especially with the prices you pay 295 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,639 Speaker 1: at the check out. But when I go grocery shopping, 296 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 1: you know, I don't. I don't want to be confronted 297 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:55,160 Speaker 1: by a bunch of hooligans running wild through the through 298 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,640 Speaker 1: the alcohol file. Yeah, Louise, I appreciate the phone call. 299 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 1: This morning. We got to get to a break, but 300 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 1: you have yourself a great day. 301 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:03,640 Speaker 4: All right. 302 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: There you go, Louise and Marrimant. I want to thank her, 303 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,720 Speaker 1: Tom J. Barry, others on the line.

I wanted 316 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 6: to share something. I have some work I do with HSI, 317 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:47,119 Speaker 6: and I have some casual conversations with the leadership there. 318 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 5: And one of. 319 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 6: The things I asked them was all the stuff on 320 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 6: the news makes it sound like there's random arrests. And 321 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 6: they laid out what the criteria for me. Number One, 322 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 6: when they go after somebody they have a criminal record. 323 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 6: Number Two, they have an outstanding crime that they haven't 324 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 6: gone to court for yet. Number three, they have a 325 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:19,200 Speaker 6: deportation order that hasn't been yet fulfilled. 326 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:22,640 Speaker 4: Number four yeah, exactly. 327 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:27,920 Speaker 6: Or number four they have left the country, been deported 328 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 6: and come back again. So all these news stories and 329 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 6: all this bleeding heart stuff that you see on the news, well, 330 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:38,879 Speaker 6: they're just granted grabbing people randomly. It's absolutely not true. 331 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 4: Everybody they have rep they have a docket on. 332 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I just want I wanted. 333 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:52,200 Speaker 6: To share because I get so sick of the bs 334 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 6: that goes around about them just grabbing people. 335 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 1: Well, and it belies the claim that that they're not 336 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,919 Speaker 1: getting any due process either, because these people have already 337 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,879 Speaker 1: been the vast and we're in Look, it's not every 338 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 1: single case. Are their mistakes being made, Yes they are, 339 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: with those mistakes amount to less than one percent of 340 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 1: the total arrest that are being made by getting these 341 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,639 Speaker 1: illegals out of the country. So and when those and 342 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:23,639 Speaker 1: when those mistakes are made, you know what those people 343 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: are They usually wind up spending maybe a day or 344 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: two locked up and then they're they're back to their 345 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,920 Speaker 1: normal lives. So is it inconvenient, Yeah, it's a pain 346 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 1: in the neck. Yeah, But the vast majority of these 347 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 1: people already have removal orders, have already been through the process. 348 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 1: And since you know, sanctuary cities, they let they let 349 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 1: these people out, they just let them go. They let 350 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:47,640 Speaker 1: them go, they don't hold them, so ICE can can 351 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:51,200 Speaker 1: bring them in and take a further look at their situations. 352 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 1: And so all these I mean, everything you're saying is 353 00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:00,200 Speaker 1: is right on the money. And of course the media 354 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 1: will never tell the national media, the agenda driven media 355 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: will never tell the complete truth about the vast majority 356 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:08,919 Speaker 1: of these cases. 357 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, when you see these middle aged women interfering with 358 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 6: the arrests, they don't realize that these guys that they're 359 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 6: arresting are probably child molesters, drug traffickers, terrorists. I mean, 360 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 6: there is a lot of work that goes into picking 361 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 6: who they go after. And when they have ancillary arrests, 362 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 6: it's because it's another illegal alien hanging around with the 363 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:37,400 Speaker 6: person they're arresting, and they have an obligation to arrest them. 364 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,160 Speaker 1: Well, sure they do. And and you know, and we've 365 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:44,120 Speaker 1: got a city council here that has decided that they 366 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 1: don't want to you know, they don't want to be 367 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:53,160 Speaker 1: have have Cincinnati cooperate at all with Ice.

It 451 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 5: was that the mayor had a little meeting where he 452 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 5: they're trying to vote in new laws that will go 453 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 5: against size. He has gone against the wishes of the 454 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 5: citizens of Columbus that he has named the city at 455 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,120 Speaker 5: sanctuary city without our permission. 456 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 1: That's that's fantastic. 457 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:34,919 Speaker 5: And so basically they're putting out news media that there 458 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:37,880 Speaker 5: there are a lot to do by the Constitution, by 459 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 5: the teh Amendment, which is totally erroneous because in the Constitution, 460 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 5: the sectuary or there's supremacy calls that overrides state laws 461 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 5: when it comes to the protection of the protection of 462 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:03,679 Speaker 5: you US citizens.

And so when Obama was and look 469 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 1: Obama was, he deported a lot of folks. We didn't 470 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 1: have all the hand ringing and demonstrations and all this 471 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:34,159 Speaker 1: stuff going on, but there were I remember some of 472 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:37,080 Speaker 1: the border states back when Obama was in charge. And 473 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 1: this is back when Arizona had a Republican governor. I 474 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 1: think New Mexico had a pretty strong Republican governor, and 475 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 1: they were taking steps too, and Texas was too, taking 476 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: steps to try and secure their border, to try and 477 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 1: make sure that illegals didn't come across the border. And 478 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 1: at that time, those states were sued by the administration 479 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 1: by the federal government saying that hey, look, this is 480 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:05,160 Speaker 1: immigration law, this is our purview, this is our territory. 481 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 1: U states don't have any say so in this because 482 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: it's a federal border, it's federal jurisdiction, and you guys 483 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:16,679 Speaker 1: are stepping out of your bounds. So now we have 484 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:22,960 Speaker 1: the specter of cities and states and counties declaring themselves 485 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 1: somehow exempt from federal law and and they can do 486 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: whatever they want to do to stand in the way 487 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:34,440 Speaker 1: of federal law enforcement operations like ice and these federal agents. 488 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,439 Speaker 1: But yet so so this is this is the Left 489 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 1: wanting to have it both ways. On one hand, they 490 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,040 Speaker 1: want to say, hey, states, you can't, you can't take 491 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 1: these steps to get in our way. And and you know, 492 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,720 Speaker 1: we say, we say the border is open, you got 493 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 1: to let them in. That's our policy.

Some people don't listen. Uh, 554 00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 1: no getting back to Spanburger. So we've got this young 555 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:26,160 Speaker 1: woman who just went to the bus stop, forty one 556 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:31,040 Speaker 1: years old, Stephanie minter Is her name, stabbed to death, 557 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 1: several stab wounds in the upper body. The alleged suspect, 558 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 1: abdul Jelo, thirty two years old, has a criminal history 559 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:45,400 Speaker 1: more than thirty arrests according to DHS, including rape, malicious wounding, assault, 560 00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 1: identity theft, contributing to the delinquency of a minor. This 561 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:56,760 Speaker 1: is in Virginia and Abigail Spanberger on her first day 562 00:32:57,120 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 1: in office, what did she do? Within hours of taking 563 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 1: office on January seventeenth, Spanburger signed an executive order that 564 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: rescinded the previous governor Younkin, his order to the main 565 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:19,760 Speaker 1: mandating that state agency's contract with ICE. She says, Virginians 566 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 1: deserve to have a state and local law enforcement resources 567 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 1: devoted to the safety and security of their communities. Really, 568 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 1: but you don't want to lock up individuals who have 569 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 1: more than thirty arrests, including arrest for violent offenses. You 570 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 1: don't want to lock up individuals who are in the 571 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 1: country illegally. I look at this and I see the 572 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:48,520 Speaker 1: blood of this woman. On the hands of the Governor, 573 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 1: Abigail Spamberger. And if we don't do the same thing here, 574 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 1: if we continue down the path that we are doing 575 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 1: here in Cincinnati, and as that last caller talked about 576 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 1: in Columbus, the blood of innocence is going to be 577 00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 1: on the hands of those lawmakers who think it's perfectly 578 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 1: fine that we don't cooperate with ICE, that somehow we 579 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:22,279 Speaker 1: stand in the way of them doing their job. If 580 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:26,880 Speaker 1: you are in this country illegally, this administration makes it 581 00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:34,279 Speaker 1: easy for you to raise your hand, admit that you 582 00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 1: are in the country illegally, and you are able to 583 00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:42,360 Speaker 1: leave the country and they'll put money in your pocket. 584 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:45,600 Speaker 1: And you also have the ability at a later date 585 00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 1: to get back into the country legally. And look, if 586 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:56,359 Speaker 1: you want to seek asylum in this country, there are 587 00:34:56,440 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 1: ways to do that. Choire had a piece earlier this 588 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 1: week and some dude from somewhere in Africa who's been 589 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: in the country for a while now across the border 590 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 1: illegally surrendered to ICE agents seeking asylum, seeking asylum. That's 591 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:25,239 Speaker 1: how they did it during the Biden administration. That's how 592 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:32,359 Speaker 1: so many millions got into this country. But you got 593 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 1: to do things the right way. And now he's you know, 594 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:38,439 Speaker 1: he's got hopes of bringing his whole family over here, 595 00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:43,840 Speaker 1: and there's a whole community of individuals like this. You 596 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:47,279 Speaker 1: got to do it the right way. And I agree. 597 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:52,560 Speaker 1: I've talked to many people who have married spouses from overseas, 598 00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 1: who have come here from overseas other countries, and the 599 00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:02,239 Speaker 1: system is not good. The system is too cumbersome, it 600 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 1: takes too long, it is far too expensive. That needs 601 00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 1: to be dealt with in a meaningful way. But the 602 00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 1: first thing we have to do is get our own 603 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:17,600 Speaker 1: house in order, and that starts with closing the border. 604 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:23,839 Speaker 1: Pretty much check right there. The illegal crossings at our 605 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 1: border have pretty much gone down to zero, at least 606 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:28,880 Speaker 1: in the southern border. I think we still have some 607 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:32,839 Speaker 1: issues at the northern border, maybe a little bit more 608 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:36,440 Speaker 1: than meets the eye, So we've got to get our 609 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:41,640 Speaker 1: act together there. Then we have to clean house. We 610 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:47,440 Speaker 1: have to identify those who are here illegally, especially those 611 00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:51,360 Speaker 1: who are committing crimes like this dude in Fairfax County, Virginia, 612 00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:56,799 Speaker 1: because innocent Americans wind up paying with their lives. And 613 00:36:56,840 --> 00:37:01,239 Speaker 1: it's not just that. I mean this worry about the 614 00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 1: ill illegals who are here, the people who are here illegally, 615 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 1: who are driving big rigs, who are driving trucks. This 616 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:12,359 Speaker 1: story is just beginning to explode. And every day you're 617 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:16,360 Speaker 1: you're seeing another horrible incident of someone who has no 618 00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:19,760 Speaker 1: business being behind the wheel of a big rig, crashing 619 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:24,279 Speaker 1: that big rig and causing absolute mayhem out on the highways. 620 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:24,640 Speaker 7: Uh. 621 00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 1: We got to get to a break news coming up 622 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 1: top of the hour, and we will continue with more. 623 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:42,160 Speaker 1: Five three seven four nine, Big One, Dank seven hundred 624 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:45,239 Speaker 1: wi W ten oh six Saturday Morning, Dan Carroll in 625 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:49,279 Speaker 1: for Mike Allen.

And I told myself, you know, when 634 00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:14,880 Speaker 1: you do that Saturday show, maybe you can throw in 635 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:18,160 Speaker 1: a couple of leftovers there and this is one of them. 636 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:21,399 Speaker 1: And this is a piece that was in town Hall. 637 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:29,040 Speaker 1: And the New York Times is now admitting what we've 638 00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:32,560 Speaker 1: known all along about gender medicine, that it was never 639 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 1: about the science. And despite the Democrat Party's effort to 640 00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:41,920 Speaker 1: codify a trans bill of rights, which they're still out 641 00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:48,960 Speaker 1: there pushing this, this trans bill of rights, Look, when 642 00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:55,680 Speaker 1: it comes to being trans or anything else, you don't 643 00:38:55,719 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 1: need a separate bill of rights. The Constitution is for everyone, 644 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 1: doesn't matter who you are, white, black, brown, Asian, whatever, 645 00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:17,400 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. The Constitution the rights guaranteed therein are 646 00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 1: rights that go to the individual. And I have said 647 00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:27,960 Speaker 1: this many times. I'll never forget it. The day I 648 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 1: was listening to Rush Limbaugh and he made the point. 649 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 1: He had a caller call in and the caller was 650 00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:40,640 Speaker 1: claiming that Rush was a racist, you know, I didn't 651 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:43,360 Speaker 1: like black people, all this kind of stuff, and he 652 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,480 Speaker 1: let the caller was I believe it was a female caller, 653 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:51,680 Speaker 1: and he let the caller make her point, and he 654 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 1: said to he said to her, he said, do you 655 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:59,520 Speaker 1: know what the smallest minority is? And she didn't want 656 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:03,279 Speaker 1: to answer away, and he said, look it's not a 657 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:08,799 Speaker 1: trick question, but he said, the smallest minority is the individual, 658 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:14,359 Speaker 1: because each one of us is unique. Even if you're 659 00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:18,760 Speaker 1: a twin, you still are different from any other person 660 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:23,000 Speaker 1: on this planet. And that's the part of the brilliance 661 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:24,880 Speaker 1: of the contents. There's a lot of brilliant things about 662 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:29,799 Speaker 1: the Constitution and founding documents, but when you think about it, 663 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:36,440 Speaker 1: you are a minority unto yourself because on this entire planet, 664 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:41,120 Speaker 1: there are a lot of people that are like you. 665 00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:46,040 Speaker 1: There are a lot of people who maybe think like 666 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:49,360 Speaker 1: you in a political sense, or a social sense, or 667 00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:53,719 Speaker 1: a religious sense, but there's no one else who is 668 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:56,719 Speaker 1: exactly like you. So you are an individual. That's why 669 00:40:56,760 --> 00:41:02,640 Speaker 1: you are sovereign unto yourself. Way God made us, and 670 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:07,799 Speaker 1: that's what our constitution recognizes, the sovereignty of the individual. 671 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:12,480 Speaker 1: So the rights are guaranteed to the individual. And it 672 00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:15,000 Speaker 1: doesn't matter if you're trans, it doesn't matter if you're 673 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:22,160 Speaker 1: part of the LGBT whatever community. There's no need for 674 00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:26,799 Speaker 1: you to have a separate bill of rights different than 675 00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:34,640 Speaker 1: any other rights. Now, I understand it may be tough 676 00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:42,640 Speaker 1: to enjoy the lifestyle you enjoy. It may not be 677 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:47,799 Speaker 1: the cup of tea for other individuals, but as an individual, 678 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,880 Speaker 1: I have a right. We have the rights to freedom 679 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:55,799 Speaker 1: of association. You are free not to associate with me. 680 00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:58,560 Speaker 1: You don't like what I'm saying on the radio, you 681 00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:01,719 Speaker 1: are free to turn it off. You are free to 682 00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:07,720 Speaker 1: find other programming that suits you better. I can't force 683 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:10,840 Speaker 1: anyone to listen to me. I can't force anyone to 684 00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:14,600 Speaker 1: hang out with me. I can't force anyone to give 685 00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:16,040 Speaker 1: me a job I got. I have to go out 686 00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:23,440 Speaker 1: there and sell myself. So it just because you've chosen 687 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:27,359 Speaker 1: to live your life the way you do doesn't mean 688 00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:32,160 Speaker 1: that you deserve separate bill of rights. But there's a 689 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 1: you know, I had a clip from Ed Markey and 690 00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:40,080 Speaker 1: what's the what's the other one from Illa Jaia Paul 691 00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:43,279 Speaker 1: the other day of the anti Trump rally during the 692 00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 1: State of the Union. They're out there if we need 693 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:48,960 Speaker 1: trans kids and trans this and trans what a bunch 694 00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:54,080 Speaker 1: of crap. So anyway, Democrat Party. The efforts to codify 695 00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:58,120 Speaker 1: a trans Bila right trans Bila rights. Public sentiment on 696 00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:02,360 Speaker 1: the issue, though, is turning. Two prominent medical associations, the 697 00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:07,040 Speaker 1: American Society of Plastic Surgeons and the American Medical Association 698 00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:12,200 Speaker 1: have both come out against gender affirming surgeries for miners, 699 00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:18,120 Speaker 1: and thank god for that. The list of hospitals that 700 00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:23,200 Speaker 1: are also no longer performing these procedures is growing. This 701 00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:27,680 Speaker 1: was driven by money, of course. The Trump administration vowed 702 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:31,680 Speaker 1: to withhold federal funding from hospitals that perform what the 703 00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 1: administration correctly calls gender denying procedures. And fox Verian, who 704 00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:41,120 Speaker 1: is a detransitioner, just won a two million dollar lawsuit 705 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:47,160 Speaker 1: against the doctors and the shrink who facilitated her astectomy 706 00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:51,400 Speaker 1: at the age of sixteen. Now the New York Times 707 00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:55,680 Speaker 1: is chiding these organizations as not following the science, but 708 00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:59,920 Speaker 1: belief in the push for gender affirming cares for my mind. 709 00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:06,880 Speaker 1: Here's more. American advocates for youth gender medicine have insisted 710 00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:12,200 Speaker 1: for years that overwhelming evidence favors providing gender dysphoric youth 711 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:16,880 Speaker 1: with puberty blockers hormone, and, in the case of biological females, 712 00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:21,120 Speaker 1: surgery to remove their breasts. It didn't matter that the 713 00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:23,960 Speaker 1: number of kids showing up a gender clinics had soared 714 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:27,320 Speaker 1: and that they are more likely to have complex mental 715 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:30,200 Speaker 1: health conditions than those who had come to clinics in 716 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:39,400 Speaker 1: earlier years come complicating diagnosis. Advocates and healthcare organizations just 717 00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:44,120 Speaker 1: dug in a billboard truck used by the LGBTQ Admosty 718 00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 1: group GLAD proclaimed in twenty twenty three, the science is settled, 719 00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:53,560 Speaker 1: The Human Rights Campaign says on its website, the safety 720 00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:57,640 Speaker 1: and eca efficacy of gender affirming care for transgender and 721 00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:02,200 Speaker 1: non binary youth and adults is clear elsewhere. These groups 722 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:06,240 Speaker 1: and other groups like the American Civil Liberties Union referred 723 00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:11,440 Speaker 1: to these treatments as medically necessary, life saving, and evidence based, 724 00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:16,680 Speaker 1: and of course among them was the one time Assistant 725 00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:23,400 Speaker 1: Secretary of Health and Human Services, doctor Rachel Levin, a 726 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:28,840 Speaker 1: man who was married, board children, had children with his wife, 727 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:31,120 Speaker 1: and then decided he wanted to live his life as 728 00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:37,320 Speaker 1: a woman and went out there claiming that the butchering 729 00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:41,799 Speaker 1: of these kids was a necessary thing. The reason these 730 00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:44,279 Speaker 1: advocates were able to make such strong statements is that 731 00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:47,279 Speaker 1: for years the most important professional medical and mental health 732 00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:50,440 Speaker 1: organization in the country had been singing a similar to 733 00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:56,640 Speaker 1: the science was supposedly codified in documents published by these organizations. 734 00:45:57,520 --> 00:46:01,239 Speaker 1: As GLAD puts on its website, every major medical association 735 00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:06,760 Speaker 1: supports health care for transgender people and youth as safe 736 00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:11,759 Speaker 1: and life saving. But something confounding has happened in the 737 00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:16,200 Speaker 1: last few weeks. Cracks have appeared in the supposed wall 738 00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:21,120 Speaker 1: of conscience or a consensus. I should say I'm misreading 739 00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:26,560 Speaker 1: that there was never a wall of scientific consensus. Of course, 740 00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:30,560 Speaker 1: it was all driven by political ideology, and the fact 741 00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:33,880 Speaker 1: that organizations are backpedaling now that millions of dollars in 742 00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:38,839 Speaker 1: lawsuits and federal funding are on the line proves that 743 00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:44,960 Speaker 1: it was never about science. Between COVID and transgender medicine, 744 00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:48,000 Speaker 1: the damage done to kids and the trust in science, 745 00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:57,600 Speaker 1: medical organizations and experts is irreparable. Signal emits that many 746 00:46:57,640 --> 00:47:01,279 Speaker 1: of these organizations are simply relying on recommendations from other 747 00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:08,080 Speaker 1: organizations rather than scientific research. These recommendations were driven by 748 00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:14,680 Speaker 1: political and social ideology. Meanwhile, actual scientific reviews like the 749 00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:19,400 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four cast review found remarkably weak evidence to 750 00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:24,520 Speaker 1: support the practice of youth gender medicine and noted the 751 00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:30,920 Speaker 1: shoddy professional guidelines before that. They did the same thing 752 00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:35,239 Speaker 1: with global warming. Sorry climate change. There's a pattern here 753 00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:39,680 Speaker 1: that cannot be denied. Medical organizations, scientific bodies, and other 754 00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:45,280 Speaker 1: expert groups have been captured by political ideology that puts 755 00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:51,359 Speaker 1: science behind the agenda. So the agenda first, science second. 756 00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:54,040 Speaker 1: It's great that the tide is turning, but it should 757 00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:59,120 Speaker 1: not have taken this long or resulted in the irreparable 758 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:01,600 Speaker 1: harm to so many children. 759 00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:03,640 Speaker 5: Ye know. 760 00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:05,799 Speaker 1: I was talking to my buddy Matt Margolis about this 761 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:15,360 Speaker 1: a week or so ago from JP Media, and he 762 00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:19,560 Speaker 1: has written extensively on this issue, and he had a 763 00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:23,719 Speaker 1: line in one of his stories talking about and this 764 00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:28,959 Speaker 1: was after the case came out where the young woman 765 00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:34,120 Speaker 1: who was detransitioning won the two million dollar settlement, and 766 00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:38,000 Speaker 1: he said, if it really was about saving these kids' 767 00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:44,680 Speaker 1: lives and doing all this medically necessary stuff, these so 768 00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:49,680 Speaker 1: called doctors and medical professionals, they wouldn't care about the money, 769 00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:54,920 Speaker 1: they wouldn't care about the lawsuits, they wouldn't care what 770 00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:59,440 Speaker 1: the government said. They would still be performing these surgeries. 771 00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:06,160 Speaker 1: But now now that they're uh facing the fact that 772 00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:08,200 Speaker 1: they're not going to get paid for this, well then 773 00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:11,480 Speaker 1: then they're they're backing off of it. So what's more 774 00:49:11,520 --> 00:49:17,480 Speaker 1: important actual patient care or making the money? And I 775 00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:21,320 Speaker 1: think the evidence is clear that was all about political 776 00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:26,319 Speaker 1: ideology and the money that flowed from it. So a 777 00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:29,400 Speaker 1: great piece there in in town Hall, written by Amy Curtis. 778 00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:31,200 Speaker 1: Let's go to Rick and Dallas. It's been a little 779 00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:34,160 Speaker 1: while since I talked to Rick and Rick, Rick and Dallas, 780 00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:35,120 Speaker 1: how are you today? 781 00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:37,600 Speaker 4: How are you doing? Pretty good? Going on? This is 782 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:42,799 Speaker 4: a questions. But you know me, you know, I wonder 783 00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:47,279 Speaker 4: I would eat We were compiled by MGBT and translke 784 00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:49,800 Speaker 4: what did best? Why I tried taking all of the 785 00:49:50,320 --> 00:49:54,439 Speaker 4: news you know, Uh, I mean, boy, you fifty years ago, 786 00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:58,560 Speaker 4: they just whispered about that. Yeah, I mean you never 787 00:49:58,640 --> 00:49:59,480 Speaker 4: were here that stuff. 788 00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:05,120 Speaker 1: All mon, Well, this is it's all virtue signaling. You know, 789 00:50:05,239 --> 00:50:08,239 Speaker 1: You've got You've got this entire group of people out there, 790 00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:13,880 Speaker 1: the especially the the lgbt Q crowd, that is in 791 00:50:14,080 --> 00:50:17,759 Speaker 1: favor with the national media. So they are going to 792 00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:22,120 Speaker 1: get absolutely positive coverage every time you turn around. You know, 793 00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:25,600 Speaker 1: the rainbow this and rainbow that. It's all wonderful, it's 794 00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:29,239 Speaker 1: all great. Uh, but but there's again, there's a there's 795 00:50:29,280 --> 00:50:32,920 Speaker 1: a political agenda behind all of this stuff. And this 796 00:50:33,160 --> 00:50:36,120 Speaker 1: is the kind of stuff that the media loves to highlight. 797 00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:40,120 Speaker 1: And so you've got people out there like Promila Jayapaul, 798 00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:44,840 Speaker 1: who has announced that there's a trans bill of rights 799 00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:49,239 Speaker 1: that allows people to live as they're full and authentic selves. Well, 800 00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:52,799 Speaker 1: you know what, you don't need government action. You don't 801 00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:57,160 Speaker 1: need a government bill of rights for anyone to live 802 00:50:57,280 --> 00:51:00,680 Speaker 1: as their full and authentic selves. That's the great of America. 803 00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:04,640 Speaker 1: You are free to live however you want it, as 804 00:51:04,680 --> 00:51:07,759 Speaker 1: long as you're not, you know, harming anyone, As long 805 00:51:07,840 --> 00:51:09,680 Speaker 1: as long as you're not interfering with the rights of 806 00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:12,799 Speaker 1: anyone else, you are free to live as you damn 807 00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:18,879 Speaker 1: well please, aren't you.

But you know, don't come out and 822 00:52:12,719 --> 00:52:16,840 Speaker 1: and tell me that I have to somehow acquiesce, or 823 00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:21,120 Speaker 1: that you need government sanction to live your lifestyle, and 824 00:52:21,520 --> 00:52:25,200 Speaker 1: and and and a lot of this is simply uh. 825 00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:28,759 Speaker 1: These groups, who over the years gained political clout, were 826 00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:32,840 Speaker 1: able to go to local government, state government, federal government 827 00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:38,239 Speaker 1: and get government sanctioned for their activities and and be 828 00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:42,279 Speaker 1: able to put the government boot on other people to acquiesce, uh, 829 00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:45,680 Speaker 1: to to the to the decisions that they made men 830 00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:49,839 Speaker 1: many times against against their will. So no, I mean 831 00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:54,680 Speaker 1: it's ridiculous that we have to have a separate as 832 00:52:54,760 --> 00:52:58,799 Speaker 1: a primilla Jaiapaul once a trans bill of rights, there's 833 00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:03,319 Speaker 1: no there's should be no such thing. And again it's 834 00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:07,560 Speaker 1: the point that I made earlier, is that everyone you know, Rick, 835 00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:11,000 Speaker 1: I mean, you're you're an individual.

But the the 917 00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:36,640 Speaker 1: testimony that came in, and I read that at one point, 918 00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:43,040 Speaker 1: and I guess the testimony, the video of the testimony 919 00:57:44,040 --> 00:57:47,560 Speaker 1: is going to be played on c SPAN at some 920 00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:51,000 Speaker 1: point later on. But I was reading this morning that 921 00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:54,960 Speaker 1: at one point, I guess Hillary Clinton got completely unhinged 922 00:57:55,680 --> 00:57:59,920 Speaker 1: and just went on some kind of extended rant during 923 00:58:00,160 --> 00:58:02,520 Speaker 1: that testimony.

But this whole business with the 938 00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:53,520 Speaker 1: with the truckers is and these truckers who are driving 939 00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:56,880 Speaker 1: trucks and illegal aliens that should not have driver's license. 940 00:58:56,920 --> 00:59:00,120 Speaker 1: I mean, this thing is is just the investigation that 941 00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:02,440 Speaker 1: is just really getting out of control. But we turn 942 00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:06,120 Speaker 1: our attention now to Eric Matthaney, who is here and 943 00:59:06,360 --> 00:59:08,160 Speaker 1: so we've got him on the air.

And as always, I appreciate you being here. 947 00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:20,040 Speaker 1: How are you today? I'm doing well. Thank you for 948 00:59:20,120 --> 00:59:23,520 Speaker 1: having me. So, you, like the rest of America, Will 949 00:59:23,720 --> 00:59:25,880 Speaker 1: got up this morning, looked at the news and you 950 00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:31,440 Speaker 1: see that we have launched strikes in Iran, and you 951 00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:34,400 Speaker 1: probably saw the video of President Trump talking about the 952 00:59:34,480 --> 00:59:37,439 Speaker 1: reasoning behind that. What are your thoughts on that this morning? 953 00:59:38,960 --> 00:59:41,160 Speaker 8: Well, I think we're in this situation certainly because of 954 00:59:41,200 --> 00:59:44,880 Speaker 8: predisadministration administrations and certainly their lack of taking it. 955 00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:46,760 Speaker 1: I'm getting a real bed echo here. 956 00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:48,840 Speaker 3: Their lack of taking action. 957 00:59:48,880 --> 00:59:50,360 Speaker 8: I think one of the things we look at is 958 00:59:50,440 --> 00:59:53,800 Speaker 8: Obama giving them what almost two billion dollars in cash, 959 00:59:54,520 --> 00:59:57,040 Speaker 8: and John Kerry's deal he did with them, and their 960 00:59:57,160 --> 00:59:59,439 Speaker 8: unwillingness to take care of this problem when they could 961 00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:02,400 Speaker 8: have done this ten years ago. Unfortunately, this is the 962 01:00:02,440 --> 01:00:06,040 Speaker 8: result of inaction by previous administrations. And while we don't 963 01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:08,600 Speaker 8: like this, we certainly don't want any regime change. I 964 01:00:08,720 --> 01:00:11,480 Speaker 8: understand the reasonings behind it, but I think people are 965 01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:13,960 Speaker 8: quick to jump to conclusions and certainly look for that 966 01:00:14,040 --> 01:00:16,920 Speaker 8: immediate online dopamine and say, oh my god, I condemned 967 01:00:16,920 --> 01:00:20,520 Speaker 8: the administration. If we wait forty eight seventy two hours 968 01:00:20,600 --> 01:00:22,520 Speaker 8: and see what's going to happen, I don't think we're 969 01:00:22,560 --> 01:00:24,360 Speaker 8: going in there for regime change. I think these are 970 01:00:24,400 --> 01:00:27,480 Speaker 8: going to be targeted strikes and turn the country over 971 01:00:27,640 --> 01:00:30,480 Speaker 8: to the tens of millions of people who want to 972 01:00:30,520 --> 01:00:32,920 Speaker 8: live free and don't want to live under this Islamic 973 01:00:33,080 --> 01:00:33,680 Speaker 8: terror regime. 974 01:00:35,120 --> 01:00:40,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, the Biden administration simply refused to or turned its 975 01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:43,120 Speaker 1: head to the sanctions that were in place. I think 976 01:00:43,200 --> 01:00:47,040 Speaker 1: the last year under the Trump administration, I think Iran 977 01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:51,120 Speaker 1: made about sixteen billion on its on its oil sales 978 01:00:51,560 --> 01:00:54,360 Speaker 1: during the Bide deministration, that number jumped up to over 979 01:00:54,520 --> 01:00:59,360 Speaker 1: four hundred billion dollars so Iran, and there were lots 980 01:00:59,360 --> 01:01:01,280 Speaker 1: of other things that were going on in Iran as 981 01:01:01,320 --> 01:01:04,560 Speaker 1: well that allowed them to put a lot of money 982 01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:06,640 Speaker 1: in the bank, so to speak. So that allowed them 983 01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:10,360 Speaker 1: to do what sponsored terrorists around the Middle East and 984 01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:14,040 Speaker 1: around the world, and allowed them to get in a 985 01:01:14,080 --> 01:01:17,480 Speaker 1: position to where they were on the doorstep of having 986 01:01:17,680 --> 01:01:23,840 Speaker 1: a nuclear weapon. And this regime just completely it seemed 987 01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:25,880 Speaker 1: like I got more and more out of control. And 988 01:01:26,040 --> 01:01:30,640 Speaker 1: I think there were ample diplomatic efforts to offer an 989 01:01:30,720 --> 01:01:34,800 Speaker 1: off ramp to this Iranian regime to prevent this from happening, 990 01:01:35,280 --> 01:01:39,240 Speaker 1: but I don't think they ever really negotiated in good faith, 991 01:01:39,440 --> 01:01:42,000 Speaker 1: and so that led us to the path to where 992 01:01:42,040 --> 01:01:42,600 Speaker 1: we are today. 993 01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:47,240 Speaker 8: Look, I think it's Trump's mantra, it's peace through strength. Yeah, 994 01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:49,400 Speaker 8: this is how he leaves, and sometimes this is what 995 01:01:49,520 --> 01:01:52,440 Speaker 8: you have to do. But we cannot let them get 996 01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:54,040 Speaker 8: a nuclear weapon, and we don't want to be in 997 01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:57,520 Speaker 8: a situation where they have a nuclear weapon, and we 998 01:01:57,600 --> 01:02:00,200 Speaker 8: wish we would have done this. So sometimes, well a 999 01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:03,200 Speaker 8: little preempted action is what we have to do. But 1000 01:02:03,360 --> 01:02:07,480 Speaker 8: I encourage people to give this forty eight seventy two hours, 1001 01:02:07,600 --> 01:02:11,040 Speaker 8: God forbid a week before you jump to any conclusions. 1002 01:02:11,120 --> 01:02:13,280 Speaker 8: I don't believe we're getting in there and trying to 1003 01:02:13,440 --> 01:02:14,120 Speaker 8: build some kind. 1004 01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:14,640 Speaker 4: Of regime there. 1005 01:02:15,600 --> 01:02:20,160 Speaker 8: I think it's done entirely in the interest of American security. 1006 01:02:21,520 --> 01:02:24,040 Speaker 1: I think you're right. So, yeah, we are going to 1007 01:02:24,080 --> 01:02:27,200 Speaker 1: have to let this go for several days to see 1008 01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:30,600 Speaker 1: what the fallout is and a little bit of patience 1009 01:02:30,720 --> 01:02:33,040 Speaker 1: on our part and maybe a few prayers are in 1010 01:02:33,240 --> 01:02:37,000 Speaker 1: order as well. For some reason, Joe Biden made a 1011 01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:41,240 Speaker 1: speech earlier this week, and first of all, I don't 1012 01:02:41,280 --> 01:02:44,920 Speaker 1: know who would pay good money to have Joe Biden 1013 01:02:44,960 --> 01:02:48,800 Speaker 1: show up at their organization, But essentially he was trying 1014 01:02:48,840 --> 01:02:51,680 Speaker 1: to make the point that he is doing things, or 1015 01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:54,160 Speaker 1: he did a lot of things better than Donald Trump 1016 01:02:54,240 --> 01:02:56,080 Speaker 1: did him, and it sounded a little bit like this, 1017 01:02:56,240 --> 01:02:57,720 Speaker 1: let's hear cut number one Liam. 1018 01:03:01,560 --> 01:03:02,640 Speaker 3: Around the world. 1019 01:03:04,280 --> 01:03:08,240 Speaker 2: Despite everything you read, but everything you read, despite the 1020 01:03:08,320 --> 01:03:11,040 Speaker 2: fact that COVID drove migration. 1021 01:03:10,880 --> 01:03:12,560 Speaker 1: To record levels all around the world. 1022 01:03:13,440 --> 01:03:18,600 Speaker 6: Today I left office, border crossed in the United States 1023 01:03:18,680 --> 01:03:22,640 Speaker 6: were lower than the day that I ended at office. 1024 01:03:22,680 --> 01:03:31,320 Speaker 1: Inherited from Trump, he is I won't say it. That's 1025 01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:34,200 Speaker 1: just the fact. That's the fact that the day I 1026 01:03:34,280 --> 01:03:35,240 Speaker 1: left office. 1027 01:03:34,960 --> 01:03:37,080 Speaker 6: I handed truck the strongest economy in. 1028 01:03:37,200 --> 01:03:41,360 Speaker 1: The world, in the world. That's not hyperbole. That's a fact. 1029 01:03:44,400 --> 01:03:47,120 Speaker 1: So Eric Methaney a couple of things there. It seems 1030 01:03:47,160 --> 01:03:49,560 Speaker 1: to me that Biden is trying to rewrite history as 1031 01:03:49,600 --> 01:03:52,720 Speaker 1: it relates to the millions of people who came across 1032 01:03:52,800 --> 01:03:55,480 Speaker 1: the border illegally. I didn't know that it was the 1033 01:03:55,560 --> 01:04:00,640 Speaker 1: Wuhan that drove people to across the southern border illegally. 1034 01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:02,960 Speaker 1: And then when he and this was a thing that 1035 01:04:03,680 --> 01:04:06,120 Speaker 1: he was talking about a lot before he left office, 1036 01:04:06,120 --> 01:04:09,640 Speaker 1: about how the American economy was the strongest in the world. Well, 1037 01:04:10,440 --> 01:04:13,880 Speaker 1: that's true. No matter what happens. We could be in 1038 01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:16,959 Speaker 1: the depths of the deepest recession and we would still 1039 01:04:17,320 --> 01:04:19,040 Speaker 1: be the strongest economy in the world. 1040 01:04:19,120 --> 01:04:19,480 Speaker 4: Did we not. 1041 01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:24,680 Speaker 8: I don't know about that, but I'm not going to 1042 01:04:24,720 --> 01:04:27,880 Speaker 8: give Biden credit for having handed over the strongest economy 1043 01:04:27,880 --> 01:04:32,240 Speaker 8: of the world. Inflation was up almost nine percent during 1044 01:04:32,360 --> 01:04:37,000 Speaker 8: his term. Gas was four fifty a gallon. In some 1045 01:04:37,120 --> 01:04:38,880 Speaker 8: parts of the country it was seven dollars a gallon. 1046 01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:42,880 Speaker 8: Gas is now down to under an average of three 1047 01:04:42,960 --> 01:04:46,000 Speaker 8: dollars a gallon some places, it's even like a dollar 1048 01:04:46,040 --> 01:04:50,680 Speaker 8: eighty nine. And Trump has secured the border, bringing the 1049 01:04:50,720 --> 01:04:54,800 Speaker 8: border crossings down to zero, ten consecutive months of zero. 1050 01:04:56,400 --> 01:04:59,840 Speaker 8: That was never happening under Biden. The border was overr 1051 01:05:00,640 --> 01:05:03,640 Speaker 8: with migrant caravans coming up from Central and South America. 1052 01:05:04,480 --> 01:05:05,800 Speaker 8: So for him to come out there and try to 1053 01:05:05,840 --> 01:05:09,040 Speaker 8: rehabilitate his image, first and foremost, I thought he had 1054 01:05:09,080 --> 01:05:10,080 Speaker 8: like stage four cancer. 1055 01:05:10,920 --> 01:05:12,280 Speaker 3: Nobody's talked about that in months. 1056 01:05:12,360 --> 01:05:12,919 Speaker 1: That's what I thought. 1057 01:05:13,000 --> 01:05:13,720 Speaker 4: Was that still a thing? 1058 01:05:14,240 --> 01:05:16,360 Speaker 1: A good question, That is a very good question. 1059 01:05:18,960 --> 01:05:19,360 Speaker 3: I don't know. 1060 01:05:19,520 --> 01:05:20,960 Speaker 8: That's what they were telling us. They were telling us 1061 01:05:20,960 --> 01:05:24,400 Speaker 8: that he had stage four cancer, and he seems to 1062 01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:26,120 Speaker 8: be doing fine. I mean, look, God bless him. I 1063 01:05:26,120 --> 01:05:28,880 Speaker 8: don't wish any ill will upon him, but for him 1064 01:05:28,920 --> 01:05:31,680 Speaker 8: to come out there and to try to reinvent his image. 1065 01:05:31,720 --> 01:05:34,640 Speaker 8: And you heard the crowd when he made that claim 1066 01:05:34,680 --> 01:05:37,880 Speaker 8: about the border. There were no applauses. They know that 1067 01:05:37,960 --> 01:05:41,240 Speaker 8: that's a bunch of nonsense. And he's now trying to 1068 01:05:41,600 --> 01:05:45,120 Speaker 8: rehabilitate his image because they're looking towards twenty twenty eight 1069 01:05:45,560 --> 01:05:47,320 Speaker 8: and they have to reinvent the narrative that it was 1070 01:05:47,360 --> 01:05:49,680 Speaker 8: the Democrats that secured the border, because they've realized that 1071 01:05:49,840 --> 01:05:54,280 Speaker 8: Poland shows the overwhelming majority of Americans, whether conservative or liberal, 1072 01:05:54,600 --> 01:05:56,520 Speaker 8: support a tight, secure border. 1073 01:05:57,920 --> 01:06:00,640 Speaker 1: And there was another part of that speech where he 1074 01:06:00,760 --> 01:06:03,080 Speaker 1: talked about Trump and the State of the Union address, 1075 01:06:03,160 --> 01:06:05,800 Speaker 1: and well, he didn't talk about this, and he didn't 1076 01:06:05,840 --> 01:06:07,840 Speaker 1: talk about that. And Biden went down a list of 1077 01:06:07,880 --> 01:06:10,640 Speaker 1: a couple of things that Trump didn't talk about. Well, 1078 01:06:11,080 --> 01:06:13,720 Speaker 1: I mean, that's easy to say, and there's a lot 1079 01:06:13,800 --> 01:06:17,120 Speaker 1: of things that Biden didn't talk about either, when, for instance, 1080 01:06:17,160 --> 01:06:20,200 Speaker 1: he didn't talk about how his administration saw to it 1081 01:06:20,360 --> 01:06:25,080 Speaker 1: that the telephone lines or the telephone the actual telephones 1082 01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:30,000 Speaker 1: of Christinome and Cash Bettel were tapped during the course 1083 01:06:30,200 --> 01:06:33,560 Speaker 1: of the Trump campaign when they were still US citizens 1084 01:06:33,600 --> 01:06:36,040 Speaker 1: and not working for the Trump campaign. They didn't talk 1085 01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:39,400 Speaker 1: about the reports that came out earlier this week about 1086 01:06:39,440 --> 01:06:43,040 Speaker 1: how the Biden Department of Justice was in cahoots with 1087 01:06:43,160 --> 01:06:47,320 Speaker 1: Fanny Willis to run the investigation against Trump, and how 1088 01:06:47,480 --> 01:06:52,600 Speaker 1: the Biden administration was able to funnel eighteen million dollars 1089 01:06:52,960 --> 01:06:55,880 Speaker 1: into her office. So not only did they have the 1090 01:06:55,960 --> 01:07:00,320 Speaker 1: cooperation of Fanny Willis in Fulton County, Georgia. But they 1091 01:07:00,400 --> 01:07:02,440 Speaker 1: made it worth her while too, to the tune of 1092 01:07:02,520 --> 01:07:05,680 Speaker 1: eighteen million dollars. So I didn't hear Biden talking about 1093 01:07:05,680 --> 01:07:07,760 Speaker 1: any of that kind of stuff during his speech. 1094 01:07:07,920 --> 01:07:11,480 Speaker 3: They're not going to talk about that, Yeah, I mean outrage. 1095 01:07:11,760 --> 01:07:15,240 Speaker 1: The corruption of the Biden administration knows no bounce. 1096 01:07:16,800 --> 01:07:18,640 Speaker 3: No, they know no bounce. And I'm just wondering who's 1097 01:07:18,640 --> 01:07:21,120 Speaker 3: still going out to hear that guy speak the good question. 1098 01:07:21,200 --> 01:07:22,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. It wouldn't be me. 1099 01:07:24,040 --> 01:07:26,120 Speaker 3: I coudn't mention a lot of Democrats wanting to go 1100 01:07:26,160 --> 01:07:27,400 Speaker 3: out and see that guy's see. 1101 01:07:27,240 --> 01:07:31,120 Speaker 1: Be, Well, you'd be You'd be there right after you 1102 01:07:31,240 --> 01:07:34,000 Speaker 1: went and saw the Kamala Harris speech, wouldn't you. 1103 01:07:34,280 --> 01:07:38,840 Speaker 8: Because she believe it or not, she's the front runner 1104 01:07:38,840 --> 01:07:40,200 Speaker 8: for twenty twenty eight, she's pulling. 1105 01:07:40,040 --> 01:07:43,160 Speaker 1: The highest How does that happen? How can that be possible? 1106 01:07:44,880 --> 01:07:46,800 Speaker 8: I think she's going to try to reinvent the narrative 1107 01:07:46,840 --> 01:07:49,640 Speaker 8: and say, if I were given a true campaign period, 1108 01:07:49,680 --> 01:07:51,840 Speaker 8: because remember she'd put everything together in one hundred days, 1109 01:07:52,320 --> 01:07:55,240 Speaker 8: so she claims it wasn't enough time. So she thinks 1110 01:07:55,280 --> 01:07:57,440 Speaker 8: that if she can rehabilitate her image and do a 1111 01:07:57,480 --> 01:07:59,480 Speaker 8: full campaign. You know, she's going to run a similar 1112 01:07:59,520 --> 01:08:02,560 Speaker 8: campaign to she ran in twenty twenty four. Now right 1113 01:08:02,640 --> 01:08:06,920 Speaker 8: behind her, you've got AOC, You've got Gavin Newsom, You've 1114 01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:11,640 Speaker 8: got Pete Footage Edge, and then Josh Shapiro, not necessarily 1115 01:08:11,680 --> 01:08:14,640 Speaker 8: in that order, but that's your bench right there. So 1116 01:08:15,680 --> 01:08:18,880 Speaker 8: Newsom I think has affirmatively done a lot of damage 1117 01:08:18,880 --> 01:08:21,200 Speaker 8: to himself. I think namely the comments that he made 1118 01:08:21,240 --> 01:08:25,120 Speaker 8: at that event where he pandered to black people by saying, 1119 01:08:25,280 --> 01:08:27,080 Speaker 8: I'm dumb and I get low test scores. 1120 01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:28,600 Speaker 3: I can't believe that. 1121 01:08:29,640 --> 01:08:32,360 Speaker 8: You know, he's also got to make up for what 1122 01:08:32,479 --> 01:08:36,000 Speaker 8: happened in California. Certainly where Pacific Palisade is burned down. 1123 01:08:36,040 --> 01:08:39,000 Speaker 8: They've only issued something like one building permit, So he 1124 01:08:39,080 --> 01:08:41,960 Speaker 8: can't escape the record what he's done in California. And 1125 01:08:42,080 --> 01:08:44,160 Speaker 8: then AOC, I mean, the fact that she's even in 1126 01:08:44,200 --> 01:08:44,679 Speaker 8: the running. 1127 01:08:44,920 --> 01:08:46,000 Speaker 3: I don't know what to say about that. 1128 01:08:47,520 --> 01:08:50,600 Speaker 1: Well. AOC certainly didn't do herself any favors when she 1129 01:08:50,960 --> 01:08:55,600 Speaker 1: was over in Munich, Germany at that conference. And it 1130 01:08:55,800 --> 01:08:59,000 Speaker 1: was funny because she ahead of time before she went 1131 01:08:59,080 --> 01:09:01,719 Speaker 1: over there, her staff, it be known that, hey, watch 1132 01:09:01,800 --> 01:09:04,240 Speaker 1: aoc over in Munich and she's really going to show 1133 01:09:04,280 --> 01:09:07,960 Speaker 1: off her foreign policy chops. And when she was asked 1134 01:09:08,000 --> 01:09:12,080 Speaker 1: a couple of relatively simple questions, it was just one 1135 01:09:12,439 --> 01:09:16,160 Speaker 1: of the most major embarrassments that anyone can ever remember. 1136 01:09:16,320 --> 01:09:21,400 Speaker 1: So it's the problem is, though, was that Americans don't 1137 01:09:21,400 --> 01:09:23,680 Speaker 1: have a long memory on that kind of stuff, so 1138 01:09:24,120 --> 01:09:25,840 Speaker 1: they'll be able to shove that kind of stuff down 1139 01:09:25,880 --> 01:09:26,439 Speaker 1: the memory hill. 1140 01:09:27,960 --> 01:09:30,000 Speaker 3: That is true, they don't have a long memory, but 1141 01:09:30,120 --> 01:09:33,840 Speaker 3: the Internet is forever, it is. Are there for that reason? 1142 01:09:34,560 --> 01:09:39,320 Speaker 1: It is Yeah, give me your thoughts on the It's 1143 01:09:39,400 --> 01:09:41,880 Speaker 1: kind of interesting because I've been doing shows this whole 1144 01:09:41,920 --> 01:09:44,200 Speaker 1: week this week, and normally when you have a State 1145 01:09:44,240 --> 01:09:46,960 Speaker 1: of the Union speech, you get the president will get 1146 01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:49,720 Speaker 1: a pop of twenty four maybe forty eight hours out 1147 01:09:49,760 --> 01:09:51,800 Speaker 1: of that and then people sort of stopped talking about 1148 01:09:51,840 --> 01:09:55,040 Speaker 1: that speech. But had it not been for the action 1149 01:09:55,280 --> 01:09:58,320 Speaker 1: in Iraq this morning, I think the one and still 1150 01:09:58,400 --> 01:10:00,040 Speaker 1: one of the major topics that we would have this 1151 01:10:00,160 --> 01:10:03,160 Speaker 1: week is what the President did on Tuesday night, And 1152 01:10:03,760 --> 01:10:06,680 Speaker 1: give me give me your summary and your review of 1153 01:10:06,960 --> 01:10:08,639 Speaker 1: the State of the Union address. 1154 01:10:09,920 --> 01:10:11,320 Speaker 8: I thought it was the best State of the Union 1155 01:10:11,360 --> 01:10:14,040 Speaker 8: I've ever seen in my lifetime. And I don't say 1156 01:10:14,120 --> 01:10:16,720 Speaker 8: that because I'm a Trump supporter. I don't say that 1157 01:10:16,760 --> 01:10:21,320 Speaker 8: because of any party affiliation, as objectively assumingly possible looking 1158 01:10:21,360 --> 01:10:26,320 Speaker 8: at in terms of messaging, tone and just taking off 1159 01:10:26,400 --> 01:10:30,240 Speaker 8: the shackles of political correctness, and having a second term 1160 01:10:30,360 --> 01:10:33,839 Speaker 8: president who is unburdened by having to run for reelection 1161 01:10:34,360 --> 01:10:36,800 Speaker 8: to be able to point at the Democrats and call 1162 01:10:36,920 --> 01:10:40,080 Speaker 8: them out for their anti Americanism, that they won't even 1163 01:10:40,200 --> 01:10:44,200 Speaker 8: stand up for a murdered Ukrainian immigrant, they won't stand 1164 01:10:44,280 --> 01:10:47,200 Speaker 8: up for World War Two veterans, they won't stand up 1165 01:10:47,280 --> 01:10:49,679 Speaker 8: for our heroes who won the gold of the Olympics. 1166 01:10:49,960 --> 01:10:51,840 Speaker 8: If they're not going to stand up for those people, 1167 01:10:52,400 --> 01:10:54,320 Speaker 8: what makes you think they're going to stand up for you? 1168 01:10:55,080 --> 01:10:59,800 Speaker 8: And to leave Rashad and for Elano Omar sitting there 1169 01:11:00,080 --> 01:11:03,479 Speaker 8: doubting and heckling. That really comes down to everything the 1170 01:11:03,600 --> 01:11:06,880 Speaker 8: Democrats stand for these days. They're a party of nothing. 1171 01:11:06,960 --> 01:11:10,640 Speaker 8: They're a party of theatrical politics. They're a party of 1172 01:11:10,760 --> 01:11:15,000 Speaker 8: empty promises. And Trump came out there, and not only 1173 01:11:15,200 --> 01:11:19,800 Speaker 8: was it tone and messaging, the sheer energy and enthusiasm 1174 01:11:19,880 --> 01:11:22,560 Speaker 8: that he delivers as an eighty year old man or 1175 01:11:22,640 --> 01:11:27,439 Speaker 8: near eighty year old man is remarkable. It's part political speech, 1176 01:11:27,840 --> 01:11:31,960 Speaker 8: it's part WWE commentary, it's part stand up comedy. 1177 01:11:32,439 --> 01:11:36,479 Speaker 3: And he went for what like two hours longer. Yeah, 1178 01:11:36,600 --> 01:11:37,960 Speaker 3: I think it was the longest in history. 1179 01:11:39,560 --> 01:11:42,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was great. And and when he caught out 1180 01:11:42,920 --> 01:11:45,439 Speaker 1: the Democrats and said these people are crazy, I think 1181 01:11:45,520 --> 01:11:47,640 Speaker 1: that is really going to be the moment that a 1182 01:11:47,680 --> 01:11:51,160 Speaker 1: lot of people remember Eric Methaney. It has happened again. 1183 01:11:51,920 --> 01:11:55,640 Speaker 1: A young woman forty one years old murdered at a 1184 01:11:55,720 --> 01:11:58,519 Speaker 1: bus stop in Virginia by an illegal who's been in 1185 01:11:58,600 --> 01:12:01,160 Speaker 1: the country for multiple year. Not only has he been 1186 01:12:01,200 --> 01:12:04,360 Speaker 1: in the country illegally, but been arrested thirty times on 1187 01:12:05,320 --> 01:12:08,920 Speaker 1: a string of violent felonies and other charges. And yet 1188 01:12:08,960 --> 01:12:12,439 Speaker 1: this individual was free to roam the streets. I look 1189 01:12:12,560 --> 01:12:16,080 Speaker 1: at Abigail Spanburger there in Virginia. On day one, she 1190 01:12:16,240 --> 01:12:19,920 Speaker 1: signed an order telling state agencies not to cooperate with ICE. 1191 01:12:20,320 --> 01:12:23,040 Speaker 1: And I look at this and I say, the blood 1192 01:12:23,040 --> 01:12:26,120 Speaker 1: of this woman is on the hands of Abigail span Burger. 1193 01:12:26,240 --> 01:12:28,400 Speaker 1: And we've got here here in Cincinnati. We've got a 1194 01:12:28,479 --> 01:12:31,080 Speaker 1: city council that doesn't want to cooperate with ICE, and 1195 01:12:31,360 --> 01:12:34,800 Speaker 1: I think other municipalities and states and cities across the 1196 01:12:34,880 --> 01:12:39,439 Speaker 1: country that want to engage in all this virtue signaling 1197 01:12:39,520 --> 01:12:42,640 Speaker 1: about anti ice, that we're going to have similar situations 1198 01:12:42,720 --> 01:12:46,240 Speaker 1: like this keep cropping up. And I don't have anywhere 1199 01:12:46,240 --> 01:12:47,760 Speaker 1: else to go but to say the blood is on 1200 01:12:47,840 --> 01:12:52,080 Speaker 1: the hands of these politicians who want to, you know, 1201 01:12:52,200 --> 01:12:54,799 Speaker 1: want to engage in all this anti ice activity. 1202 01:12:56,600 --> 01:13:00,360 Speaker 8: The only basis for engaging and anti ice activity they 1203 01:13:00,439 --> 01:13:03,360 Speaker 8: want to bring in a dependent and loyal voter base 1204 01:13:03,560 --> 01:13:06,680 Speaker 8: that's going to keep them in power forever. If you 1205 01:13:06,760 --> 01:13:09,360 Speaker 8: listen to Democrats in two thousand and six, two thousand 1206 01:13:09,360 --> 01:13:11,519 Speaker 8: and seven, even during the two thousand and eight election cycle, 1207 01:13:11,920 --> 01:13:14,360 Speaker 8: they were as much border hawks as the Conservatives. You know, 1208 01:13:14,520 --> 01:13:17,920 Speaker 8: they may have differed on stylistically how to do it, 1209 01:13:18,560 --> 01:13:21,599 Speaker 8: but Obama voted for the two thousand and six Secure 1210 01:13:21,960 --> 01:13:26,320 Speaker 8: Fence Act, so they were completely on board with a 1211 01:13:26,360 --> 01:13:29,639 Speaker 8: secure border up until they realized that they were losing Americans, 1212 01:13:29,680 --> 01:13:32,559 Speaker 8: they were losing those old blue dog Democrats, they were 1213 01:13:32,640 --> 01:13:35,839 Speaker 8: losing the heartland, and they needed to import new voters. 1214 01:13:36,040 --> 01:13:38,240 Speaker 8: And they realize it's the same reason why they oppose 1215 01:13:38,360 --> 01:13:40,599 Speaker 8: voter ID because they want people who can't get IDs 1216 01:13:40,640 --> 01:13:41,040 Speaker 8: to vote. 1217 01:13:41,520 --> 01:13:44,759 Speaker 3: They want people to vote for them, to stay. 1218 01:13:44,560 --> 01:13:48,600 Speaker 8: In poverty, to stay on government assistants and vote for 1219 01:13:48,640 --> 01:13:49,639 Speaker 8: them every election cycle. 1220 01:13:49,880 --> 01:13:50,240 Speaker 3: That is it. 1221 01:13:50,280 --> 01:13:52,400 Speaker 8: And if that cost the lives of a couple Americans, 1222 01:13:53,200 --> 01:13:57,280 Speaker 8: if that costs some elections because of cheating, they don't care. 1223 01:13:58,000 --> 01:13:59,360 Speaker 3: It's a price they were going to pay. 1224 01:14:00,520 --> 01:14:02,839 Speaker 1: Isn't it sad though that we have that much difference 1225 01:14:02,880 --> 01:14:04,720 Speaker 1: between the two politicals. There used to be a time 1226 01:14:04,800 --> 01:14:08,559 Speaker 1: when I think the Republicans and the Democrats generally wanted 1227 01:14:08,600 --> 01:14:11,920 Speaker 1: what was best for America, just had different ideas about 1228 01:14:11,960 --> 01:14:14,400 Speaker 1: how to get there. But now we can't even find 1229 01:14:14,479 --> 01:14:17,760 Speaker 1: ground when it comes to celebrating Olympic athletes who win 1230 01:14:17,800 --> 01:14:18,400 Speaker 1: a gold medal. 1231 01:14:20,560 --> 01:14:22,519 Speaker 3: You know that turned into something political. 1232 01:14:23,120 --> 01:14:26,839 Speaker 8: That image of Jack Hughes with the broken teeth, bloody smiling, 1233 01:14:26,960 --> 01:14:27,559 Speaker 8: holding up his. 1234 01:14:27,640 --> 01:14:30,759 Speaker 3: Fist in that's as iconic as air Jordan. 1235 01:14:30,960 --> 01:14:33,679 Speaker 8: Yeah, that is an iconic sports moment and that should 1236 01:14:33,680 --> 01:14:36,960 Speaker 8: have been a time when everybody celebrated. And the thing 1237 01:14:37,120 --> 01:14:40,200 Speaker 8: I think the reason that it struck such a chord 1238 01:14:40,920 --> 01:14:42,880 Speaker 8: is because it reminds those of us who are a 1239 01:14:42,920 --> 01:14:45,760 Speaker 8: little on the older side what life was like back 1240 01:14:45,800 --> 01:14:48,120 Speaker 8: in the days, back in the eighties and nineties, we. 1241 01:14:48,200 --> 01:14:51,720 Speaker 3: Had Olympic fever. I mean, go anywhere in ninety two, 1242 01:14:51,920 --> 01:14:55,439 Speaker 3: ninety six, eighty eight, two thousand. You knew the Olympics 1243 01:14:55,479 --> 01:14:56,720 Speaker 3: were on. You were watching them. 1244 01:14:57,000 --> 01:14:59,559 Speaker 1: It was great. Eric Corgan paid attention this year. 1245 01:14:59,520 --> 01:15:00,760 Speaker 3: Until the hockey team one. 1246 01:15:00,880 --> 01:15:03,439 Speaker 1: Because Eric, We've got to leave it there. I've got 1247 01:15:03,520 --> 01:15:05,000 Speaker 1: a heart out, I got to get to so I 1248 01:15:05,120 --> 01:15:07,920 Speaker 1: appreciate the time as always. Keep up the great work.
