I know we got a lot going on 43 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 3: into the world. We're easily distracted, maybe intentionally, so Congress 44 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:45,920 Speaker 3: am asking is going to be talking about the Epstein 45 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 3: file vote, which may be fast approaching. A lot of 46 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 3: folks sweating bullets. And I still can't abide the Trump 47 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 3: administration just turning on doing a one point eighty on 48 00:02:55,160 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 3: releasing those documents. Lots of very well healed folks suggested 49 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 3: will be implicated if the documents are released. Big money folks, 50 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,920 Speaker 3: champions of industry, those evil corporate billionaires. At least suggestions 51 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,519 Speaker 3: along those lines have been made. Go ahead and figure 52 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 3: out for yourself. I don't know why they haven't been released. 53 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 3: Maybe Congressman Massi can shed some light on that and 54 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 3: be around at eight oho five for that conversation. And 55 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 3: Judge endeda Poulitano when presidents kill more about launching rocket 56 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 3: strikes and blowing up drug dealers, and they're recently it 57 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 3: was kind of odd. There's a DOJ A Justice Department 58 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 3: Legal analysis. Justice Department's Office of Legal Counsel issued an 59 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 3: opinion which so far has not been circulated, you and 60 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 3: I haven't been able to see. CNN reported on this 61 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 3: which said, basically, the Trump administration can authorize these strikes 62 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 3: on the cartels, but he has unit basically unlimited authority. 63 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 3: PRESIDENTI allowed to authorize deadly force against a broad range 64 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 3: of cartels because they pose what the legal councils suggests 65 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 3: are an imminent threat to Americans. And also the opinion 66 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 3: suggests the list of cartels goes beyond the ones that 67 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 3: the administration has publicly designated as terrorist organization, like the 68 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,719 Speaker 3: deer Agua gang. That I believe that those whose boats 69 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 3: are being blown up on the off the coast of Venezuela. 70 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 3: But it is pointed out, and this is something that 71 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:31,159 Speaker 3: Politana will also argue. I'm sure historically drug trafficking is 72 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 3: a criminal act, and the Coastguard just picks up the 73 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:41,840 Speaker 3: drug trafficking vessels, arrests the smugglers, and we well prosecute 74 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:45,280 Speaker 3: them in a court of law with due process. You know, 75 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 3: I'm worried about this. I know no one's got any 76 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 3: love for drug dealers, and you know, I'll admit to 77 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 3: a bit of shot and fraud. I want to see 78 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 3: a bomb blow up a boat full of drugs. But 79 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 3: I don't abide by it happening that way. There seems 80 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 3: to me there should be some congressional and you know, 81 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,600 Speaker 3: this is literally a war that's being waged. Granted it's 82 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 3: not under you know, against an army flying under the 83 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 3: color of a state flag. This is an organized drug 84 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 3: or cartel. It's kind of like fighting terrorists, isn't it. 85 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 3: Rather than blowing people up in the name of some 86 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 3: fundamentalist religion, Well, they're committing acts of crime and killing 87 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,679 Speaker 3: people in the name of making money by well, shipping 88 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 3: drugs into the United States where the demand is quite heavy. 89 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 3: I think we need to look more inwardly with regard 90 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 3: to the drug problem, because we are the problem. There's 91 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 3: always an entrepreneur out there who's going to see a 92 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,919 Speaker 3: money making opportunity and ignore the morality and ethics of 93 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 3: making money just for the sake of making money. Welcome 94 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 3: to the drug industry. So there have been I think 95 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 3: four strikes on these boats so far, and again I 96 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,119 Speaker 3: see it happening. But we live in a crazy world. 97 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 3: This whole Russia Ukraine drone war has really revealed the 98 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 3: obvious nature of the change of the military landscape. And 99 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,479 Speaker 3: if you can go out Amazon and order a drone 100 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 3: and have it delivered to your front door today, it's 101 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,679 Speaker 3: that easy to get a drone. And these military drones 102 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,599 Speaker 3: obviously are inexpensive to manufacture, and they're literally everywhere in 103 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,119 Speaker 3: the tens of thousands. All you need is a drone 104 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 3: to blow something up. Can you use the hell fire missile? 105 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 3: Sure you can. Can you use other yeah? But what 106 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 3: if some other country with this technology and everybody's getting it. 107 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 3: It's not like a nuclear power technology or nuclear weapons technology. 108 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,919 Speaker 3: Apparently that's very difficult to get because you have to 109 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,479 Speaker 3: have centrifuges. You have to invest tens of millions and 110 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,600 Speaker 3: billions perhaps dollars to create a bomb. Look at North Korea, 111 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 3: they've been working at it for decade. Look at Well. 112 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 3: Of course, you've got a lot of countries. Iran has 113 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 3: been working on building a bomb for decades and decades. Now, right, 114 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:54,839 Speaker 3: it isn't easy to accomplish. But can you buy up 115 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,239 Speaker 3: a whole bunch of drones and conduct missile strike? 116 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:57,599 Speaker 2: Sure? 117 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 3: What if they designated Donald Trump or someone the administration 118 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 3: or just the United States generally as a country that 119 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 3: poses an eminent threat to them. I mean, Iran can 120 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 3: make a good argument for that, couldn't it. We drones 121 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 3: strike them and blow them up and drop big bunker 122 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 3: busting bombs on them. We are an eminent threat to 123 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 3: the existence of Iran. Maybe they can start launching drones 124 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 3: against us. I know we would declare an act of 125 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 3: it would be an active war. We have nuclear weapons. 126 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 3: That's why other countries maybe don't go after us. The 127 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 3: great deterrence, this massive military might we have. But does 128 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 3: that justify our massive military might? Does it justify us 129 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 3: going off and letting any president? Remember this shouldn't be 130 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 3: an argument over whose ox is being gored. Some other 131 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 3: president under a different political party. Perhaps in this role, 132 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 3: that is a tremendous amount of power and it's a 133 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 3: well it is literally waging war. Now you can make 134 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 3: the argument, well, this is directed at drug dealers. This 135 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 3: isn't directed at Venezuela or fill in the blank on 136 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 3: any country. But if it's taking place on their soil, 137 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,239 Speaker 3: in their waters, they could perceive it as an active 138 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 3: war in spite of the fact it's an act directed 139 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 3: at criminal element. So fast and loose with military power 140 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 3: is not a road I want to go down to 141 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 3: It should be a thoughtful analysis. It should be involved people. 142 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 3: I would argue, of both political stripes. It's difficult for 143 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 3: me to say that, but that's where I am. We 144 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 3: have a constitution, It limits the presidential powers and war 145 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 3: is something that should be avoided at all costs, even 146 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 3: if it's a war on well, cartels and boats floating 147 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 3: around in the middle of the ocean thousands of miles 148 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:47,319 Speaker 3: away eminent threat you decide. I imagine other lawyers and 149 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 3: a different team of lawyers from the Office the Legal 150 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 3: Counsel could have come up with a different conclusion. Yeah, 151 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 3: it does happen that way anyway. Early votings started today 152 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 3: since ani out Ere and Hamilton County early voting, it's open. 153 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 3: Get out to the Board of Elections, cast your vote. 154 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 3: I saw this article from Scott Warman over at the 155 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,679 Speaker 3: enquir and you know, I was really irked about it. 156 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,959 Speaker 3: I'm irked every time local reporters talk and mention Corey 157 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 3: Bowman because it's always JD Vance's half brother, Corey Bowman 158 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,439 Speaker 3: or Corey Bowman jd Vance's half brother. Does that have 159 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 3: any relevance on who Corey Bowman is? Jd Vance hasn't 160 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 3: even I mean, isn't running. He hasn't really endorsed anybody. 161 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,839 Speaker 3: He's not campaigning for Corey Bowman. In fact, according to 162 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 3: the reporting in this article, they rarely even talk, and 163 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 3: when they do they talk about, you know, family stuff. 164 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 3: But there it is in the headline. In Cincinnati. JD. 165 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 3: Vance's half brother hopes for a political earthquake in mayor race. 166 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 3: Corey Bowman's name is not even in the headline, despite 167 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 3: or maybe because of Bowman's personal relationship to the White House. 168 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 3: Bowman faces a steep climb to unsee democratic incumbent have 169 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:59,959 Speaker 3: to have pervall Hm this time around. The Republican canon 170 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 3: for the city mayor also happens to be Vice President 171 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 3: JD Vance's half brother. All of this from headline in 172 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 3: the first page of the article. He's mentioned it three times. 173 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 3: Goes on to show, yeah, he did finish a distance 174 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 3: second in the primary, thirteen percent of the vote to 175 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 3: pro Ball's eighty three fine apparently very limited spending so 176 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:23,319 Speaker 3: far this year. That's the current status of the race. 177 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 3: There's been no television or radio ads. They point out, 178 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 3: Purval has outraised Corey Bowman, reporting that pur of Ball's 179 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 3: got one hundred and twenty seven grand, Bowman twenty three grand. 180 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:35,839 Speaker 3: But that's a painfully low number for even per Ball 181 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 3: last time he got four hundred and thirty one thousand 182 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 3: back in twenty one by this point in the race, 183 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 3: So a lot less money, a lot less enthusiasm. And 184 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 3: it's noted by one political commentator observer that well, with 185 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 3: the voter turnout as low as it was for the 186 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,839 Speaker 3: primary at ten percent, Bowman's only shot, according to the 187 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:59,080 Speaker 3: political analysis, is if there is a low voter turnout, 188 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 3: voter turnout and a really healthy number of voters that 189 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,679 Speaker 3: well normally would sit on their hands and not vote. 190 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 3: You independent minded folks, you people believe the Democratic Party 191 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 3: has left you. You Democrats have believe have to have. 192 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:18,560 Speaker 3: Provoll hasn't represented your interests and all the other conservative 193 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 3: leaning folks out there who have given up on voting 194 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 3: in Democrat in elections in cities of Cincinnati because well 195 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 3: they it's the uphill battle that's referred to in the article. 196 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 3: Don't give up on that. Mean Provoll is not It 197 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:40,719 Speaker 3: does not have an engaged base. It seems just look 198 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 3: to the money and Bowman's Another component of this article 199 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 3: and I believe it's an accurate assessment. The enquirre noted 200 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:53,199 Speaker 3: that all of the people that show out of these 201 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 3: issue up at the Bowman rallies, or a lot of 202 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 3: them anyway, or outside of the city of Cincinnati. Of course, 203 00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 3: he enjoys a lot of support out there among them 204 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 3: or seeing conservative masses, so that's wonderful. And folks outside 205 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 3: of the city that can't vote in the election can 206 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 3: certainly support his campaign, put a yard sign in or 207 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 3: hand him some money. More fundamentally, but we need the votes. 208 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 3: And as much as you might love Corey Bowman outside 209 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 3: of the city of Cincinnati, of people within the city 210 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 3: of Cincinnati, the ones that are obviously going to be 211 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 3: terming this so and then you know they mentioned the 212 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 3: lower turnout. The political analyst over at the Vizavier University 213 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 3: of Professor Marianni. He's a political science expert. If people 214 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,959 Speaker 3: don't show up, you don't need as many votes. It's 215 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 3: the longest of long shots. Not a great assessment for 216 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 3: Corey Bowman from presser Professor Marianni, but a little glimmer 217 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,599 Speaker 3: of pope if you show up. And of course the 218 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:52,599 Speaker 3: article concludes with one more reference, but Bowman's family. But 219 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,559 Speaker 3: it's Bowman's family that has drawn much of the attention. 220 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 3: His half brother is Vice president JD. 221 00:12:58,440 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 5: Van. 222 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 3: So if you didn't get the memo as you're reading 223 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:05,199 Speaker 3: through Scott Wortman's article about this, guess what Corey Bowman is. 224 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:05,439 Speaker 2: JD. 225 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 3: Van's's half brother.

And listening to Cory and and Christopher, 246 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 6: you know, just was the cherry on top. 247 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,199 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I thought they both did a wonderful job. 248 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:09,959 Speaker 3: And the next one for folks that want to show 249 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 3: up at Nextlisser Ludge High Green Brewery, brent Wood location, 250 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 3: that's November fifth, Mike, you're gonna. 251 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 2: Be able to make that one out there, yes, sir, good, all. 252 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 3: Right, what's on your mind? You didn't call in to 253 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 3: talk about me or let me float? 254 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 7: Well? 255 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 6: Before I get to my point, I couldn't help to tag, 256 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 6: you know, with the half brother Hope comment that they're 257 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 6: driving down our throats, so uh, half Tab like they 258 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 6: normally do. And I'm sure there were some Republican candidates 259 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 6: outside the Board of Elections there Norwood, but of course 260 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 6: they let alf Tab surrounded by his minions. But the 261 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 6: first the only thing that the little audio clip they 262 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 6: had was that he's going to defeat the MAGA movement. 263 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 3: Yep. 264 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 6: Now, when have you ever heard Corey Bowman Christopher Smitheman. 265 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 6: Any of them mentioned Maga I. 266 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 3: Know, and Joe Nacker sent me a campaign ad for 267 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 3: Provoll and it was a picture of JD Vans and 268 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 3: Trump Maga versus I don't know, the Unity Group or 269 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 3: whatever the hell I have that pro Ball is calling himself. 270 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 3: And so Joe suggested that that was a sign that 271 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 3: they're getting worried over in the Provoll camp. I don't know, 272 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 3: but it has become in this at least they're waging 273 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 3: the Maga versus Provoll messaging. So whatever, it's obviously a lie. 274 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 3: It's designed well when you got. 275 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 6: Nothing else to run on, you know, maybe gin up 276 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 6: your base by that, you know. And I'm sure you're 277 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 6: going to mention the Fountain Square shooting yesterday, so maybe 278 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 6: there were no red bikes around, so hopefully we don't 279 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 6: have to inconvenience to But what I did want to 280 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 6: mention that is that I was so disgusted with the 281 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 6: capital d of the news coverage in Manhattan and around 282 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 6: the world for the pro Hamas demonstrations on the second 283 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:51,240 Speaker 6: anniversary of the Israeli massacre. You know, these useful idiots. 284 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 6: I think they should be strapped into chairs in an 285 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 6: imax theater, so they can be surrounded and shown the 286 00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 6: raw footage of what occurred that day, the heading, the murder, 287 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 6: the abduction mister Levin was on yesterday and just and 288 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 6: I'll just take his numbers for it, but it kind 289 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 6: of makes sense. Comparative numbers of the size of our 290 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 6: country to Israel would be two hundred and fifty thousand 291 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 6: Americans killed and forty thousand taken hostage. Now we're just 292 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 6: going to sit back with that type of numbers and 293 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 6: with the atrocities that took place that day. And then 294 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 6: these people got the nerve on the integration and granted 295 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 6: First Amendment, do what you want to do, but evil 296 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 6: does not reside in Jerusalem, the White House or in 297 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 6: ice detention centers. Well, you know, there is pure evils 298 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 6: in this world and we're seeing it unleashed every single day. 299 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, and so your point about striving it down in 300 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 3: an imax theater, making them watch that, And something tells 301 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 3: me quite a few of them in the crowd would 302 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 3: look at that and say, the fulfillment of my dreams. 303 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 6: This is on a one off and wanting to wipe 304 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 6: that country off the face. 305 00:16:58,000 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 2: Of the earth. 306 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, it's a great point, Mike. It is really 307 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 3: a great point. But I don't know what to say 308 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 3: about it. Man, I just don't get that the idea 309 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:15,119 Speaker 3: resonates largely. You have crazy people that absolutely hate Jews 310 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 3: period in the story. They want to abolish and eradicate 311 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,239 Speaker 3: Israel from the river to the sea. They just hate them, 312 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 3: and that hatred's never going to go away. But is 313 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 3: that hatred shared among the vast majority of people in 314 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 3: the world or even in the United States of America. 315 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,120 Speaker 3: I can only pray that they represent a very slim minority. 316 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 3: They're loud, the squeaky wheel gets the grease. They project 317 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:38,719 Speaker 3: size and strength because they're great at organizing, and they 318 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 3: stay on their crazy message. That doesn't mean they're actually strong, 319 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 3: and it doesn't mean they actually carry the way to 320 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 3: popular opinion. So I'm hanging my hat of optimism on 321 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 3: that hope good here in front of Mike. Thanks for 322 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 3: your service for our country, my submarine or friend. I'll 323 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 3: look forward to lunch Brentwood or High Grains Brentwood Location 324 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 3: five thirty Wednesday, Big picture with Jack added at seven 325 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,959 Speaker 3: oh five.

Tom hold On, two people are 328 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 3: now in custody. Shooting near Fountain Square Great Long East 329 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 3: sixth Street Walnut Street happened yesterday in downtown yesterday afternoon 330 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 3: in the daytime.

I think there's an 334 00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 3: extra letter in there. It's Cober, not Korber. Joe expressed 335 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 3: shock that they got it that close. Ken Cover said 336 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 3: there was some kind of altercation. There were two people 337 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:53,680 Speaker 3: who apparently both armed with guns, who shot each other 338 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 3: to it.

Okay, 376 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 8: that's that's one or two chances. That's not eighteen or 377 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 8: I mean, I read a story the other day. Some 378 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:10,880 Speaker 8: guy had ninety one felony. 379 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 3: That's hilarious. I am staring at that article. Joy McAllister. 380 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,119 Speaker 3: McAllister intoxicated when he ran a lead light, red light 381 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 3: and the stolen car killing Elizabeth Flat sixty. He had 382 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:25,640 Speaker 3: ninety one priors ninety one. 383 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 8: That's insane, and that's okay. There are people that think 384 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:31,880 Speaker 8: that that's all right. 385 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 5: Come on now, you. 386 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 8: Really don't believe that you want this system the way 387 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,120 Speaker 8: the left has it because you want to be able 388 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 8: to get away with whatever you're trying to get away with. 389 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 8: I mean, let's be honest with ourselves, folks. If we 390 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:50,359 Speaker 8: all lived our lives the way the Democrats want the 391 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 8: government to run, it would be mass chaos, mass hysteria, 392 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 8: everybody killing everybody the wild West. That scene at the 393 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,359 Speaker 8: corner of sixth and Walnut would be on virtually every corner. 394 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,920 Speaker 8: Come on, we really don't want that. That's you can't 395 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 8: be serious people. And then to pivot real quick to 396 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 8: the whole Trump blowing up drug dealers. Now I'm not 397 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 8: okay with that, uh am. I okay with drug dealers 398 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,680 Speaker 8: getting blown up, well sure, but I'm not okay with 399 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,159 Speaker 8: the President of the United States authorizing and outside of 400 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 8: our of our jurisdiction. So put it on paper, let's 401 00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 8: get it written and law, and then you follow the law. 402 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 8: I mean that that's what makes us human beings. 403 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:33,120 Speaker 6: And not animals. 404 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 8: If we have a code of law that we have 405 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,439 Speaker 8: written down, we all have to follow it. And if 406 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 8: we're gonna stand there and tell everybody, hey, you guys, 407 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 8: aren't you guys aren't law in order. We're trying to 408 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,080 Speaker 8: be following the rule, Well then you gotta follow it. 409 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 8: You gotta do it. You gotta give show the example 410 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 8: that you're gonna restrain yourself and you're gonna keep yourself 411 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 8: within the boundaries of the law, because if you're not, 412 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 8: then you're no better than anybody else. And I don't 413 00:22:56,800 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 8: want to say that about a Republican or somebody who 414 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 8: I'm mostly rooting for, but it's it's just wrong to 415 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 8: do that. Yeah, it's not it's not okay, it's outside 416 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,200 Speaker 8: the law. But you know, as I've said before and 417 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 8: many others, don't vote Rhino and don't vote Democrat. There's 418 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:16,680 Speaker 8: your solution. A great day. 419 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 3: I appreciate that. Yeah, at minimum, and we may argue 420 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:21,680 Speaker 3: all day long about whether there is such a thing 421 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 3: under our constitution called an authorization for use of military force, 422 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 3: but at least that has the stripe of congressional approval. 423 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,359 Speaker 3: I think, at minimum, get an authorization for use of 424 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 3: military force to go against the cartels and see if 425 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 3: that stands up to the test of perhaps a legal challenge. 426 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 3: But at least it wouldn't be the unilateral action of 427 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 3: a lone man wielding the power of the American military 428 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 3: at will and without any checks and balance. It's five 429 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:51,360 Speaker 3: thirty six right now, if you have K the talk station, 430 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 3: plumb time plumbing, it's always plumbing done right. If I 431 00:23:54,000 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 3: K the talk station five forty one, Happy Wednesday. Oh look, 432 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,680 Speaker 3: stack is stupid and right now, no phone calls, take 433 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 3: phone calls. It's been a while since we did a 434 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 3: stack is stupid. I enjoyed the conversation. I do enjoy 435 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:10,440 Speaker 3: doing a stack of stupid in five o'clock hours A 436 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 3: good time to do it, to help wake up and well, 437 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 3: thank God that you're not in it. Joe Strecker is 438 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,400 Speaker 3: not in the stack of stupid, never been there. Neither 439 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 3: of I. But then again, as editorial director of the 440 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 3: fifty five Carrese Morning show, that probably wouldn't read his 441 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:28,679 Speaker 3: story about myself. No, actually I would anyway. A police 442 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:33,680 Speaker 3: officer and his businessman businesswoman wife dad after a heat stroke, 443 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,119 Speaker 3: they got into an overheated hot tub while drunk and 444 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,680 Speaker 3: high on cocaine, celebrating their four year old daughter's birthday, 445 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 3: No question about it. This is in Brazil. Military cop 446 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 3: Jefferson Louis Tagaz thirty seven and his mail salon owning 447 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,920 Speaker 3: partner Anna Carolina Silva, forty one, found dead in a 448 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 3: motel in Brazilian state of Santa Catarina in the earlier 449 00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,679 Speaker 3: part of August. A couple spent the day celebrating their 450 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:02,880 Speaker 3: daughters birthday, drinking alcohol and doing lines of cocaine, then 451 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 3: went to a nightclub and then checked into the Dallas 452 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:08,680 Speaker 3: motel about midnight. When they failed to pick up their daughter. 453 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:11,639 Speaker 3: The next day, relatives were a little alarmed. They reported 454 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,119 Speaker 3: the para missing and their bodies were found in the 455 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:18,639 Speaker 3: motel bathtub. Authority's ruled heat stroke caused death, but that 456 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,679 Speaker 3: the cocaine and alcohol in their blood probably dulled their 457 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 3: reactions because they do the severe heat water in the 458 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 3: bathtub one hundred and twenty two degrees fahrenheit. A space 459 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,400 Speaker 3: heater in the room also turned up to high according 460 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 3: to investigators. Chief medical Ezambers said the cause of both 461 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:38,119 Speaker 3: this was exogenous poisoning, favoring the process of heat stroke 462 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:42,680 Speaker 3: with intense dehydration, thermal collapse culminating in organ failure and death. 463 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:46,360 Speaker 5: Idiots doing idiot things because they're idiots. 464 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:50,200 Speaker 3: According to doctor Fernando Olivera de Franseeka, speaking with the paper, 465 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:54,440 Speaker 3: the use of cocaine, which indoses alone could cause torpor 466 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 3: drowsiness even in an individual, combined with alcohol, which also 467 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 3: causes in high such as torpor coma and drowsiness. Torpor 468 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:07,920 Speaker 3: apparently a state of physical dormancy similar to hibernation, where 469 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 3: the body's metabolic rate slows considerably. Further examination of the 470 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:19,439 Speaker 3: hotel room, the couple's car security cameras carried out forensic 471 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 3: or forensic reports were able to rule out carbon monoxide, drowning, 472 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:26,119 Speaker 3: electric shock, as well as anybody else being involved in 473 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 3: the deaths, pointing to cocaine, alcohol, and ridiculously hot hot tub. 474 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:38,400 Speaker 3: It's rather strange. You got a four year old, see 475 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 3: your leaver her apparently with relatives, and you go out 476 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 3: and do drugs and alcohol. Well, dry alcohol is a drug. 477 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 3: Go out and do drugs with your partner. 478 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 7: You moron. 479 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 3: Doesn't make any sense to me. Then again, I consider 480 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:55,160 Speaker 3: myself slightly more traditional. Nashville, Tennessee. A skydiving instructor now 481 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 3: dead after falling from a plane without a parachute. 482 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 2: Screws all the time, the world's in I perfect place. 483 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 3: Indeed, just Tracker or Metro. Nashville Police SA A thirty 484 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 3: five year old Justin Robert Fuller and a forty six 485 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 3: year old sky having student got stuck on the side 486 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 3: of the plane in a tandem rig. The late Fuller 487 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 3: then became separated from the student and fell from the 488 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 3: sky sans parachute. Student's emergency parachute deployed and he got 489 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:26,160 Speaker 3: lodged in a tree in a wooded area.

Jeez, I guess what the hell. 493 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 3: I had a neighbor of mine who was in a 494 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:45,359 Speaker 3: late high school maybe early college age. He's it is solo. 495 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:49,959 Speaker 3: His first jump, the main choot didn't open, got tangled up, 496 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:53,400 Speaker 3: and I think about that. I think first time out. 497 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:55,359 Speaker 3: This is going back a long time. I guess they 498 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 3: used to let people deploy by themselves back then. I 499 00:27:58,040 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 3: think you have to do the tandem thing first. But 500 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:03,200 Speaker 3: what I know, I would never do it.

Brian, 539 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 4: I ran the math for you this morning, and we 540 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 4: are up to thirty seven billion dollars of discretionary spending 541 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 4: being saved. And again the way I've come up with 542 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 4: that number, everybody's free to check my math. Take one 543 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 4: point seven trillion, that's the annual discretionary spending. Divide that 544 00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 4: by three hundred and sixty five, then multiply that by 545 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 4: how many days, like times eight, and you come up 546 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:46,080 Speaker 4: with that thirty seven billion. 547 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 8: I heard Mike Johnson. 548 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 4: I think it was him yesterday, whining about the Democrats 549 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 4: have to end this shutdown, to end the suffering of 550 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:55,480 Speaker 4: the American people. 551 00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 8: And I. 552 00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 4: Wanted to call and just check on you, my brother, 553 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 4: to say if you're how you're weathering the storm with 554 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 4: this government shut down, and. 555 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 2: You hear me laughing, are you doing okay? 556 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:13,200 Speaker 3: I'll just find over the Thomas household. I have my life. 557 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 7: He looks a car off or is he acting? Is 558 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 7: he off today? 559 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 6: No? 560 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, I've been. I pulled around the corner of the 561 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,600 Speaker 3: parking garage every single day before I see his parking space. 562 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,360 Speaker 3: I have this little little hint of worry that I'm 563 00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 3: gonna come around the corner and his car is not 564 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 3: going to be there, at which point I will freak out. 565 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 3: Unless he's told me ahead of the time, he's not 566 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 3: gonna be a bit. No, it was there, parked in 567 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 3: the exact same spot, in the exact same position, and 568 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:37,240 Speaker 3: I'm staring at the top of his melon through my 569 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 3: video screen. He looks like he's in perfectly good health 570 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 3: and in good order. 571 00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:43,959 Speaker 7: I don't I don't understand that at all. 572 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 4: I don't know how you guys just whether this this 573 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 4: this withering attack and that you know, this suffering is 574 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 4: going on, but yeah, there's no suffering. And that's what 575 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 4: I want everybody to to realize is this government. These 576 00:31:57,560 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 4: full time jobs don't need to be full time job. 577 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 4: The people that want them to be full time jobs 578 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:05,480 Speaker 4: are in those full time jobs. And to Tom's point, 579 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 4: you know some things, it would be nice if we 580 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 4: can go back. Let's go back to the debate on Obamacare. 581 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 4: When it first came around and we first had a 582 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 4: chance to get rid of it, the discussion was how 583 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 4: do we repeal it? And then later on it was, well, 584 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:23,960 Speaker 4: how you know we're going to pass the Republican this 585 00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 4: is another Republican victory. Then it changed to not just 586 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:30,880 Speaker 4: repeal it, it was repeal and replace. And now we 587 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:33,719 Speaker 4: can't even have done that. Now we can't do anything 588 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 4: but continue to fund more of it and hand more 589 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 4: of the healthcare over to the Republican Or did the 590 00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 4: Democrats to the federal government and give them just a 591 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:46,800 Speaker 4: larger and larger and larger share of the means of 592 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:48,840 Speaker 4: production in this case healthcare. 593 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 3: Right, And they want this as a mechanism to get 594 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 3: one size fits all, basically Medicaid for all. It's been 595 00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 3: but they're practically on records saying exactly that. That was 596 00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 3: the point of waving the premiums. If you make something 597 00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 3: look free when it truly isn't. But if you make 598 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 3: it look free, you're going to increase the number of 599 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:05,720 Speaker 3: people on the ranks. And so then they doubled it 600 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 3: with the COVID nineteen emergency as a pretext. That's what 601 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,719 Speaker 3: gave you gave rise to the premium waivers. It doubled 602 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 3: the rolls on the on the Obamacare exchange and all 603 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 3: those people. Yeah, and they want them. 604 00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 4: To day everything they do, Convince Everett Ellison, everything they 605 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,520 Speaker 4: do looks like it sounds like it is. 606 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 7: Few slaves. 607 00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:33,000 Speaker 4: Get back on your get back on the plantation. You 608 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:35,240 Speaker 4: give us all of your power, all of your authority. 609 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 4: Forget about what the constitution says, these aren't God given rights, 610 00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 4: and we'll take care of you if you're good slaves. 611 00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:45,320 Speaker 4: And that's the difference again. I want to keep making 612 00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 4: that point between a liberal and a conservative, or to 613 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 4: your point, a libertarian. A libertarian conservative would say, I 614 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 4: don't want I'm not going to be a slave. I'm 615 00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,320 Speaker 4: a citizen. You work for me, I don't work for you, 616 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 4: not a slave. I'm a citizen and I want minimal 617 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 4: amount of you in my life. I'll make my own choices. 618 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:10,279 Speaker 4: I can take the two hours and call convercency. I 619 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:13,720 Speaker 4: can have that conversation and very quickly I can figure 620 00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:17,320 Speaker 4: out that there are many options better than Obamacare and 621 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:19,320 Speaker 4: have somebody put it there in black and white in 622 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:21,399 Speaker 4: front of me. Or I can sit there and watch 623 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:24,239 Speaker 4: TV and do nothing and wait for somebody to take 624 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 4: care of me, because I'll be a slave. And that's 625 00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:29,799 Speaker 4: what it comes down to. So whatever you do, don't 626 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 4: vote Democrat and don't vote Rhino. 627 00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:33,960 Speaker 3: There you have it. Then the Rhinos are the ones 628 00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:36,360 Speaker 3: that will capitulate. And they've already been talking about a 629 00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:40,040 Speaker 3: one year extension on the premium waivers. That's a step 630 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 3: in the wrong direction. I say, hold fast in your position. 631 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,480 Speaker 3: You're in the right position.

There's a lot of comedy built into that, Donovan. 652 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,280 Speaker 3: I just have to point that out ahead of time. Anyway, 653 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:51,800 Speaker 3: it sounds like an uphill challenge as up for the 654 00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 3: challeng Congressman Miss Matthew Fast eight oh five talk about 655 00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 3: shutdown and the mystery of where in the hell is 656 00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:00,680 Speaker 3: the conversation on Epstein the Epstein's files vote, We'll go 657 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:03,560 Speaker 3: over with the congress Nassy. I just find it rather well. 658 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:06,839 Speaker 3: It's not surprising that that sort of disappeared from mainstream media. 659 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:10,200 Speaker 3: Reporting or any reporting on that. And here's Brian Thomas 660 00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:12,400 Speaker 3: wondering what the hell's wrong with the Trump administration and 661 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 3: why they continue to want to hide these files after 662 00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:16,880 Speaker 3: saying and telling us and campaigning on the fact that 663 00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:18,840 Speaker 3: they'd be released. A little bit of a letdown on 664 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:21,520 Speaker 3: that one. I think I share Congressman Nassy's concerns and that, 665 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:23,279 Speaker 3: and that's why I'm hoping he moves forward with a vote, 666 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:26,120 Speaker 3: an opportunity that Democrats had for four years under the 667 00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:29,759 Speaker 3: Biden administration, which they didn't exercise. Judge Ennita Politano at 668 00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 3: eight thirty when presidents kill. Of course, that will be 669 00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:41,120 Speaker 3: about the launching of missile strikes against cartels, and we'll 670 00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:44,680 Speaker 3: also talk about this new Justice Department of opinion from 671 00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 3: the Office of Legal Counsel, which tells the Trump administration 672 00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:55,040 Speaker 3: that he has the authority, based upon the imminent threat 673 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:58,360 Speaker 3: that they pose, he has the authority to launch military 674 00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 3: operations against them. I am extraordinarily troubled by that. Going 675 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 3: back to the point, at least at minimum, and I 676 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:08,960 Speaker 3: would argue that authorizations for use of military force are 677 00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 3: not quite a declaration of war and not within the Constitution. 678 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 3: But at minimum and authorization for use of military force 679 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:18,760 Speaker 3: should be required when we're using military force, some checks 680 00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 3: and balances. I just envision a new administration, perhaps under 681 00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:26,799 Speaker 3: the Democrat side of the equation, And are you going 682 00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:29,520 Speaker 3: to be comfortable with them picking and choosing what represents 683 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,839 Speaker 3: an eminent threat? How do you define that anyway? I mean, 684 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:36,800 Speaker 3: you can look up the definition of eminine. But I 685 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 3: puzzle over how a tiny boat, eleven foot boat, fifteen 686 00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 3: foot boat, twenty foot boat, let's say, a fifty foot 687 00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 3: boat going ten to fifteen knots max. In miles thousands 688 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:50,479 Speaker 3: of miles away, how that could in any way, shape 689 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 3: or form, constitute an imminent threat. And they're also talking 690 00:37:53,560 --> 00:38:04,319 Speaker 3: about starting to launch strikes in Venezuela in side the country. Hey, listen, 691 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:05,840 Speaker 3: and Trump is not the only one who have done this. 692 00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:09,400 Speaker 3: Obama did it, the Bush, Bush did it. Trump did 693 00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 3: in his first administration. Biden launched these unilateral missile strikes. 694 00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:19,320 Speaker 3: It's unchecked military power in the hands of one person. 695 00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:23,279 Speaker 3: That is not what I read in my constitution five one, three, seven, 696 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 3: four nine, fifty five hundred, eight hundred eight two three ten, 697 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 3: five fifty on eight and t phones. Yes, the National 698 00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:31,359 Speaker 3: Guard has deployed two hundred troops Texas National Guard. Two 699 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:35,320 Speaker 3: hundred them arrived in Illinois Chicago over the objections of 700 00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 3: of course the mayor and the governor shout up in 701 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:44,640 Speaker 3: Illinois yesterday to protect federal personnel and property. It's a 702 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,719 Speaker 3: good point to emphasize why are they there. They're not 703 00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:50,279 Speaker 3: there enforcing local laws. How the police department is not 704 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 3: even enforcing local laws. It is battery. It is a 705 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 3: state crime to beat up a federal officer. No, it's 706 00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,960 Speaker 3: a federal crime as well. But they do an obligation 707 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,640 Speaker 3: to people in their juryis diction. Do prosecute them, arrest 708 00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 3: them for breaking the law. Don't look for help from 709 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:08,280 Speaker 3: the Chicago police department under the current governor and mayor 710 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 3: there anyway. Pentagon officials said the guardsmen were motialized for 711 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 3: a sixty day period, of course, subject to legal challenges 712 00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:18,760 Speaker 3: which are inevitable. They said, the troops arrived in Illinois 713 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:22,120 Speaker 3: in support of Federal Protection Mission initial cap on that 714 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,920 Speaker 3: to protect federal functions, personnel, and property, very limited in scope. 715 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 3: They have the right to do that. Department of Homeland 716 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 3: Security Secretary Christie no announced over the weekend that additional 717 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:37,360 Speaker 3: special operations personnel would in fact be deployed to Illinois 718 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:39,840 Speaker 3: in spite of the fact that the lawsuit in Portland 719 00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:45,680 Speaker 3: didn't go on the side of the federal government. Brandon Johnson, 720 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,280 Speaker 3: the mayor of Chicago, said yesterday he believes the deployment 721 00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:52,960 Speaker 3: is illegal, unconstitutional, dangerous, and wrong. Of course, we had 722 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:56,200 Speaker 3: the declaration on Monday from the mayor declaring ice free zones, 723 00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:59,879 Speaker 3: which prohibit federal immigration agents from using city owned proper 724 00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 3: for immigration enforcement operations. That just throws a logistical hurdle 725 00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:08,000 Speaker 3: in their direction. You can't park on city property. Whether 726 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,799 Speaker 3: or not that's enforceable or lawful remains to be seen, 727 00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:12,040 Speaker 3: and that, of course is going to have to be 728 00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 3: worked out in the court system as well. Johnson in 729 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:17,799 Speaker 3: a news conference earlier this week, the Trump administration must 730 00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:20,880 Speaker 3: end the war on Chicago. 731 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:23,040 Speaker 5: Is that what this is. 732 00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 3: The trouble administration must end this war against Americans. That's 733 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:31,120 Speaker 3: what this is. The trumble administration must end its attempt 734 00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:34,200 Speaker 3: to dismantle our democracy. You can't get a statement from 735 00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 3: a Democrat that doesn't include that one anymore. How is 736 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:38,400 Speaker 3: this a threat of democracy? 737 00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 2: Remember who they're. 738 00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:46,040 Speaker 3: Going after and pivot over to Los Angeles. Lots of 739 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:50,400 Speaker 3: objections to the federal government going in and arresting illegal immigrants, 740 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:54,359 Speaker 3: the criminal element among them. Bad. We can't have that here. 741 00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:57,319 Speaker 3: That is ver Boden. We didn't ask for your presence here. 742 00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,640 Speaker 3: Get the hell out. Oh but what about this one. 743 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,640 Speaker 3: I suppose it just depends on what type of operation 744 00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:05,480 Speaker 3: they are working on, whether or not local law enforcement 745 00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:07,120 Speaker 3: will work with the Feds, And in fact they do. 746 00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:15,200 Speaker 3: Just announce federal and local law enforcement officers in Los 747 00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:19,960 Speaker 3: Angeles arrested fourteen suspected leaders of the Rancho San Pedro gang. 748 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:23,320 Speaker 3: There's one of those. Just yesterday happened in Los Angeles. 749 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,320 Speaker 3: This is following a year's long investigation in what the 750 00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:29,400 Speaker 3: FBI called one of the most violent street crews in 751 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:33,400 Speaker 3: southern California, as well as being a known arm of 752 00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:38,880 Speaker 3: the Mexican mafia Cash Bettel. The era of cartels operating 753 00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:41,520 Speaker 3: freely in America is over. Every day the FBI and 754 00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:48,279 Speaker 3: our partners in this case, local law enforcement LAPD are 755 00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:51,760 Speaker 3: dismantling violent networks at the source, stripping their resources, taking 756 00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:55,239 Speaker 3: criminals off the street, and saving American lives. Not the 757 00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:58,279 Speaker 3: emphasis I choose occasionally if you're living in LA Do 758 00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:02,560 Speaker 3: you want the show San Pedro gang engaging in criminal 759 00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:08,000 Speaker 3: activity in your backyard? Of course you don't. You want 760 00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:11,560 Speaker 3: the Los Angeles Police Department and any other law enforcement 761 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:14,400 Speaker 3: agency to round them up and prosecuting for their crimes. 762 00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:20,880 Speaker 3: That seems logical and reasonable, investigators said, the PROB uncovered 763 00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:24,240 Speaker 3: links between the Rancho San Pedro and the Sineloa Cartel, 764 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:26,879 Speaker 3: as well as something called the Thirteenth Street Gang, which 765 00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:29,880 Speaker 3: our groups is described in the reporting, which worked together 766 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 3: to distribute methamphetamine, fentanyl, and heroin all around southern California, 767 00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:36,920 Speaker 3: and of course all the criminal activity, including yes, murders 768 00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:40,440 Speaker 3: that go along with that. They said. The takedown hit 769 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:43,879 Speaker 3: a gang that has five hundred members approximately across six 770 00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:49,800 Speaker 3: cliques that they say, pay in their word, taxes to 771 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:52,560 Speaker 3: Mexican mafia bosses. So what does this sound like a 772 00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:56,840 Speaker 3: coordinated activity involving committing crimes? 773 00:42:57,719 --> 00:42:57,879 Speaker 5: Huh? 774 00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:03,360 Speaker 3: Just please, Chief Jim McDonald, praise the Harbor Division detectives 775 00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:06,240 Speaker 3: for building a case step by step look and working 776 00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:10,400 Speaker 3: with the federal authorities to attack these dangerous gangs. And 777 00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:15,160 Speaker 3: here it is lo and behold the federal complaint charges 778 00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:20,960 Speaker 3: thirty defendants under RICO racketeer influence corrupt organizations. And I've 779 00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:22,919 Speaker 3: been claiming this and pointing this out for a long 780 00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:26,200 Speaker 3: long time. A couple of people or more working together 781 00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:30,919 Speaker 3: in concert to commit court law of violating the law. 782 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:35,200 Speaker 3: That's rico. It's called organized crime. And a lot of 783 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:38,160 Speaker 3: organizations out there may be staring at RICO case in 784 00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:41,960 Speaker 3: the face, like for example, Antifa and those huge, multi 785 00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:45,799 Speaker 3: billionaire funded organizations that fuel and perhaps will find out 786 00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:48,520 Speaker 3: when the investigation's over and maybe some indictments are handed 787 00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:52,560 Speaker 3: down coordinate criminal activity on the streets of our country. 788 00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:57,000 Speaker 3: So you got a RICO charge against this. Acting US 789 00:43:57,040 --> 00:44:00,920 Speaker 3: Attorney Bill Asali in a statement, the case shows the 790 00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:09,440 Speaker 3: power of partnerships. California Attorney General Robin Bonta said the 791 00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 3: raids took illegal weapons and dangerous drugs off the streets. 792 00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:16,920 Speaker 3: So local law enforcement, working hand in hand with federal 793 00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:20,680 Speaker 3: law enforcement, were successful in bringing federal charges against an 794 00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:26,640 Speaker 3: extraordinarily dangerous gang. And isn't that really boiled down kind 795 00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:29,319 Speaker 3: of what ICE agents are doing. Every day we read 796 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:33,080 Speaker 3: of arrest involving gang members who are in our country illegally, 797 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:38,319 Speaker 3: gang members with criminal records, gang members who are continuing 798 00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:41,880 Speaker 3: to distribute fentanyl and other drugs, and of course wiel 799 00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:48,279 Speaker 3: threats of violence in various neighborhoods across this country. And 800 00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:50,640 Speaker 3: there they are in the streets protesting that kind of 801 00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:54,719 Speaker 3: law enforcement, law enforcement that gets bad people off the 802 00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:57,560 Speaker 3: streets and improves the quality of neighborhoods. Is this a 803 00:44:57,680 --> 00:45:02,200 Speaker 3: war on Chicago or are they waging a war against 804 00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:05,799 Speaker 3: those who are literally waging a war on Chicago. I'm 805 00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:09,719 Speaker 3: gonna go with the latter. Five one three, seven, eight 806 00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:12,520 Speaker 3: two three talk. Feel free to call and chime in 807 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:14,759 Speaker 3: more to talk about beyond the phone calls and another 808 00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:18,680 Speaker 3: word five one three, seven fifty five hundred eighty two 809 00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:20,839 Speaker 3: to three talk found five fifty on eighth and G phones. 810 00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 3: After you said people were people were better at critical thinking, 811 00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:27,120 Speaker 3: they could see through the some of the nonsense, and 812 00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:31,319 Speaker 3: maybe people do. I still stay in Chicago on this one. 813 00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 3: You got Governor Pritzker. Earlier this week. Pritzker said there's been, 814 00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:39,320 Speaker 3: in his words, unconstitutional invasion of Illinois by the federal 815 00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:42,720 Speaker 3: government for weeks now. Donald Trump, Christine nom and Gregory 816 00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:46,840 Speaker 3: Bovino have brought their militarized CBP and ICE agents to 817 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:52,120 Speaker 3: the streets of Chicago to cause violence and chaos in 818 00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:54,600 Speaker 3: the city. Oh, is that what they're doing. That's what 819 00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:55,240 Speaker 3: it's all about. 820 00:45:57,480 --> 00:45:57,600 Speaker 5: Uh. 821 00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:05,040 Speaker 3: Countering that message, referring to Pritzker's comments as a schmorgasboard 822 00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:13,600 Speaker 3: of lies, they issued a retort on that. So here's 823 00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:19,839 Speaker 3: further to Pritzker's statements. President Trump has the authority nder 824 00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:23,560 Speaker 3: the Constitution to devoid troops wherever they're stationed to defend 825 00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:27,200 Speaker 3: the federal facilities from attacks. That's what the DHS said 826 00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:29,640 Speaker 3: in response to Pritzker's first claim on the list, whether 827 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:32,760 Speaker 3: it's the ice facility in Broadview or the courthouse in Portland, 828 00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:37,000 Speaker 3: we will defend federal property wherever they're under siege. Pritsker 829 00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:40,320 Speaker 3: in his appearance on CNN on Monday. People are getting detained, 830 00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 3: they're getting arrested US citizens. They did this when they 831 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:45,400 Speaker 3: raided the building in the middle of the night on 832 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:47,719 Speaker 3: the South Shore, one hundred and thirty people. They were 833 00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:50,160 Speaker 3: emptied out of this building. They were going after a 834 00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:53,279 Speaker 3: few gang members, and instead they broke windows, they broke 835 00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:55,919 Speaker 3: down doors, and they ransacked the place. They're the ones 836 00:46:55,960 --> 00:46:58,040 Speaker 3: that are making it a war zone. I butli believe 837 00:46:58,080 --> 00:46:59,960 Speaker 3: it is because they were resisting and if your whole 838 00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:02,520 Speaker 3: up at a building, law enforcement tends to do stuff 839 00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:06,600 Speaker 3: like that. But DHS, in response to that nonsense, said, 840 00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:10,400 Speaker 3: the following law enforcement conducted a targeted operation at an 841 00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:15,200 Speaker 3: apartment building in South Shore Community, Chicago. Fair enough, this operation, 842 00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:17,759 Speaker 3: conducted by the CBPFBI and the ATF, resulted in the 843 00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:23,680 Speaker 3: arrest of thirty seven illegal aliens from countries like Venezuela, Mexico, Columbia, Nigeria, 844 00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:28,680 Speaker 3: among them Trey the Aragua gang members and violent criminals, 845 00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:32,239 Speaker 3: the ones that they were initially going after. DHS has 846 00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:36,040 Speaker 3: routinely debunked the absurd claim that the DHS is targeting 847 00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:40,920 Speaker 3: US citizens during ICE operations. ICE does not arrest or 848 00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:45,040 Speaker 3: deport US citizens. Really, what about all the reports of 849 00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:47,759 Speaker 3: US citizens being arrested. Here's the follow up point to 850 00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:53,960 Speaker 3: that any US citizen arrested. Citizens arrested are because of 851 00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:59,239 Speaker 3: obstructing or assaulting law enforcement. What's going on, protests are 852 00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:01,320 Speaker 3: going on, they kind to obstruct an interfere with the 853 00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:04,040 Speaker 3: FEDS doing the business of rounding up gang members and 854 00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:10,799 Speaker 3: criminals among the illegal immigrant community. That's what they're doing. 855 00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:13,759 Speaker 3: So if you interfere, you're gonna get arrested. Oh my god, 856 00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:15,960 Speaker 3: a US citizen's getting caught up in the ice raids. 857 00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:18,000 Speaker 3: They're going after US citizens. Well, you got to look 858 00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:20,960 Speaker 3: beyond the veneer of that blanket statement to see why 859 00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:27,279 Speaker 3: they were arrested in the first place. Illinois Governor earlier 860 00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:30,080 Speaker 3: this week, on September twelfth, I shot and killed a 861 00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:32,400 Speaker 3: man of Franklin, part, a nearby suburb of Chicago. His 862 00:48:32,560 --> 00:48:36,160 Speaker 3: name was Silverio. The Legas Gonzalez reports say that he 863 00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:39,360 Speaker 3: just had dropped off his kids at a daycare and 864 00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:42,560 Speaker 3: was headed to work. That's Governor Pritzker's take on it. 865 00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:48,120 Speaker 3: DHS countered Gonzales was an illegal alien who, when law 866 00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:51,160 Speaker 3: enforcement ordered him to stop his car, instead drove his 867 00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:53,840 Speaker 3: car at the officers. One of the ice officers was 868 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:56,600 Speaker 3: hit by the car and dragged a significant distance. Fearing 869 00:48:56,680 --> 00:48:58,960 Speaker 3: for his own life in the broader public safety, the 870 00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:02,080 Speaker 3: officer fired as well, and despite his injuries, the officer 871 00:49:02,080 --> 00:49:04,840 Speaker 3: and his partner immediately started administering emergency medical care to 872 00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:09,160 Speaker 3: the illegal alien, who was pronounced dead. The Legas Gonzalez, 873 00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:12,640 Speaker 3: who was the target of the operation, was a criminal, criminal, 874 00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:15,799 Speaker 3: illegal alien with the history of reckless driving and further 875 00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:18,239 Speaker 3: reckless driving as illustrated by the fact that he drove 876 00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:21,719 Speaker 3: directly at officers, resulting in them needing to defend themselves. 877 00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:27,479 Speaker 3: See but if you just live in an echo chamber, 878 00:49:27,560 --> 00:49:29,480 Speaker 3: you listen only what Governor Pritzker is saying, you think 879 00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:35,120 Speaker 3: that the world has fallen apart. There's a counter narrative. 880 00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:38,160 Speaker 3: Factor it into the equation before drawing your conclusion.

Trump takes every opportunity to just. 1003 00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:28,640 Speaker 2: Go on and on and on and on. 1004 00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:32,000 Speaker 3: He rambled off a litany of all his accomplishments. He 1005 00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:34,520 Speaker 3: went back to the election and talk about the landslide. 1006 00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:37,920 Speaker 3: He talked about all the economic improvements, the trillions of 1007 00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:41,600 Speaker 3: dollars have been invested since he took office, just at 1008 00:56:41,680 --> 00:56:46,040 Speaker 3: every turn, which I kind of found comical. That's not 1009 00:56:46,200 --> 00:56:49,200 Speaker 3: my sort of style, but that's this is Donald Trump. 1010 00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:54,240 Speaker 3: So of course, the conversation pivoted over to the impending 1011 00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:59,120 Speaker 3: firings alluded to by the OMB, and the Press secretary 1012 00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:07,000 Speaker 3: told reporters, well, if the government shutdown continues, that those 1013 00:57:07,120 --> 00:57:10,320 Speaker 3: firings will be announced in the next four or five days. 1014 00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:13,239 Speaker 3: One reporter who was able to get a question out 1015 00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:16,160 Speaker 3: there that actually Trump hurt. How many permanent jobs are 1016 00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:17,920 Speaker 3: you talking about eliminating? 1017 00:57:20,080 --> 00:57:20,200 Speaker 1: Uh? 1018 00:57:20,400 --> 00:57:21,960 Speaker 3: His a response, I'll be able to tell you that 1019 00:57:22,120 --> 00:57:24,280 Speaker 3: in four or five days. If this keeps going on 1020 00:57:24,440 --> 00:57:27,040 Speaker 3: the shutdown, it will be substantial and a lot of 1021 00:57:27,080 --> 00:57:29,400 Speaker 3: those jobs will never come back. You're going to have 1022 00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:32,640 Speaker 3: a lot closer to a balanced budget. When asked if 1023 00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:35,320 Speaker 3: he'd identified specific programs or people who wanted to eliminate, 1024 00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:38,080 Speaker 3: he said, oh, sure, we have a lot. I'm not 1025 00:57:38,280 --> 00:57:42,080 Speaker 3: going to tell you yet, but we'll be announcing it 1026 00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:44,400 Speaker 3: pretty soon. But we have a lot of things that 1027 00:57:44,480 --> 00:57:48,360 Speaker 3: we are going to eliminate and permanently eliminate. Said, you know, 1028 00:57:48,600 --> 00:57:50,560 Speaker 3: one of the things that we have some advantage, you 1029 00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:54,960 Speaker 3: could say, but because of the shutdown, which I think 1030 00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:57,800 Speaker 3: may made a big mistake, we're able to take out 1031 00:57:57,840 --> 00:58:01,160 Speaker 3: billions and billions of dollars of waste fraud and they've 1032 00:58:01,200 --> 00:58:03,240 Speaker 3: handed it, you know, to us on a silver platter. 1033 00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:07,240 Speaker 3: There's a lot of truth built into that. Well, if 1034 00:58:07,280 --> 00:58:09,160 Speaker 3: I'm a comical, I'm just asking Joe. I couldn't remember 1035 00:58:09,160 --> 00:58:12,800 Speaker 3: which day, the eighteenth. Apparently there this big Democrat rally. 1036 00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:14,960 Speaker 3: They're gonna get everybody out there. Of course, I'm sure 1037 00:58:14,960 --> 00:58:17,520 Speaker 3: the billionaires are going to coordinate an effort pay protesters 1038 00:58:17,600 --> 00:58:19,920 Speaker 3: to show up. I'm sure there will be a massive 1039 00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:23,000 Speaker 3: showing of thousands of people demanding that they continue. These 1040 00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:27,280 Speaker 3: premium discounts. Are basically handing over Obamacare quote unquote for free, 1041 00:58:27,320 --> 00:58:29,440 Speaker 3: which means you and I are paying for it. Then 1042 00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:35,280 Speaker 3: one extension of these COVID nineteen relief was what it 1043 00:58:35,400 --> 00:58:38,240 Speaker 3: was all about, which doesn't exist anymore. But if Trump 1044 00:58:38,480 --> 00:58:42,280 Speaker 3: announces the firings, and it will be subject to legal challenge, 1045 00:58:42,320 --> 00:58:45,280 Speaker 3: I will acknowledge that. But if he announces all these 1046 00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:49,600 Speaker 3: people being fired within four or five days, I'm just 1047 00:58:49,680 --> 00:58:51,560 Speaker 3: wondering how the Democrats are going to react, because of 1048 00:58:51,600 --> 00:58:56,040 Speaker 3: course he's beating them to the punch. I mean, to 1049 00:58:56,120 --> 00:58:59,520 Speaker 3: extent their protest bears any fruit, and it causes some 1050 00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:04,280 Speaker 3: Republics to perhaps waiver in their refusal to extend these 1051 00:59:04,560 --> 00:59:08,480 Speaker 3: premium supplements. That's one thing. But if Trump gets out 1052 00:59:08,480 --> 00:59:10,520 Speaker 3: in front of it and fires these people, perhaps they 1053 00:59:10,560 --> 00:59:13,840 Speaker 3: will have no ability to come back to work. That'll 1054 00:59:13,880 --> 00:59:16,360 Speaker 3: knock the Democrats back. I mean, we are talking about 1055 00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:21,680 Speaker 3: draining the swamp here, so popcorn out. We'll see how 1056 00:59:21,720 --> 00:59:24,040 Speaker 3: the strategy plays out. I still say the Republicans are 1057 00:59:24,040 --> 00:59:27,040 Speaker 3: on the winning side. But all of these rumblings about 1058 00:59:27,160 --> 00:59:31,480 Speaker 3: perhaps some Republicans wavering again. I read an article earlier 1059 00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:34,800 Speaker 3: this morning suggesting that maybe they are willing to extend 1060 00:59:35,520 --> 00:59:41,200 Speaker 3: the premium supplements for another year. Democrats not yet interested 1061 00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:45,000 Speaker 3: in that. They want them permanently extended. But if you 1062 00:59:45,120 --> 00:59:47,440 Speaker 3: back and you go ahead and extend them for another year, 1063 00:59:47,440 --> 00:59:49,560 Speaker 3: I'm just wondering what that buys you. Yes, it does. 1064 00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:53,400 Speaker 3: It buys you another conversation along the exact same lines 1065 00:59:53,480 --> 00:59:58,520 Speaker 3: next year, and yet another deadline built into legislation fast approaches, 1066 00:59:59,040 --> 01:00:03,920 Speaker 3: much like the Democrats language extending these supplements only till 1067 01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:05,840 Speaker 3: the end of this calendar year. They're the ones that 1068 01:00:05,960 --> 01:00:08,920 Speaker 3: set him up for this. Apparently they thought it was 1069 01:00:08,960 --> 01:00:12,600 Speaker 3: appropriate to end these when the COVID nineteen threat had 1070 01:00:12,920 --> 01:00:14,960 Speaker 3: well moved on six forty five, and it has. If 1071 01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:18,800 Speaker 3: you haven't gotten the memo five three seven, fifty eight 1072 01:00:18,880 --> 01:00:23,920 Speaker 3: hundred station, it's six forty nine right now, fifty five 1073 01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:24,959 Speaker 3: ker City Talk station. 1074 01:00:25,680 --> 01:00:25,840 Speaker 5: Ah. 1075 01:00:26,000 --> 01:00:27,760 Speaker 3: So looking forward to the top of the our news 1076 01:00:27,840 --> 01:00:30,040 Speaker 3: being over because you get to hear from Jack Atherton. 1077 01:00:30,120 --> 01:00:32,240 Speaker 3: It's time for the Big Picture with Jack Atherdan today. 1078 01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:36,120 Speaker 3: I just can't wait for this. The communist NFL Donovd 1079 01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:38,600 Speaker 3: and Neil from Americans for Prosperity shows up at sevenot 1080 01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:40,880 Speaker 3: thirty to talk about something else. That is I'm laughing 1081 01:00:40,960 --> 01:00:48,000 Speaker 3: about the campaign make Government work? M Is that even possible? 1082 01:00:48,080 --> 01:00:50,560 Speaker 3: I will ask him and Congressman Thomas Messy fast forward 1083 01:00:50,600 --> 01:00:52,600 Speaker 3: to eight oh five. We'll talk shut down. We'll also 1084 01:00:52,680 --> 01:00:56,160 Speaker 3: talk about the mysterious disappearing Epstein vote. Will we have 1085 01:00:56,360 --> 01:00:58,520 Speaker 3: a vote to release the Epstein files. I know he's 1086 01:00:58,560 --> 01:01:01,760 Speaker 3: backing that effort. I'm firmly behind Congressman Massey in that effort. 1087 01:01:01,840 --> 01:01:04,520 Speaker 3: And of course, as I've said many times, kind of 1088 01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:06,760 Speaker 3: disappointed in the Trump administration for the one eighty it 1089 01:01:06,800 --> 01:01:09,800 Speaker 3: did in connection with those documents. Judge and an Apolitano 1090 01:01:10,040 --> 01:01:12,920 Speaker 3: question mark when or the column Tonight we have a 1091 01:01:12,920 --> 01:01:14,840 Speaker 3: little bit more to talk about with the judge when 1092 01:01:15,120 --> 01:01:18,760 Speaker 3: presidents killed, talking about the striking of those of Venezuela 1093 01:01:18,760 --> 01:01:21,400 Speaker 3: and Narco terrists. And we also have that new opinion 1094 01:01:21,760 --> 01:01:24,120 Speaker 3: from the Office of Legal Counsel which apparently gives Trump 1095 01:01:24,680 --> 01:01:28,080 Speaker 3: carte blank, carte blanche authority to launch military strikes wherever 1096 01:01:28,160 --> 01:01:30,360 Speaker 3: he damn well pleases, as long as he makes a 1097 01:01:30,440 --> 01:01:34,040 Speaker 3: declaration of eminent threat. I'm still waiting for someone to 1098 01:01:34,080 --> 01:01:35,600 Speaker 3: call me up and tell me how a boat one 1099 01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:39,000 Speaker 3: fifteen hundred, maybe two thousand miles away and not a 1100 01:01:39,120 --> 01:01:41,760 Speaker 3: very big boat can represent an eminent threat to the 1101 01:01:41,880 --> 01:01:45,000 Speaker 3: United States. We do have a Coastguard. When they get close, 1102 01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:48,200 Speaker 3: dropping off drugs may present an eminent threat, but that 1103 01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:51,160 Speaker 3: will be our waters, our coastal waters taken care of 1104 01:01:51,280 --> 01:01:54,280 Speaker 3: by the law enforcement on waters, which is the Coast Guard. 1105 01:01:54,720 --> 01:01:57,920 Speaker 3: They regularly arrest drug dealers and prosecute them in a 1106 01:01:57,960 --> 01:01:59,840 Speaker 3: court of law where they'll get a lawyer and they'll 1107 01:01:59,840 --> 01:02:02,000 Speaker 3: get do process and then they'll get locked up. 1108 01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:04,320 Speaker 2: Anyway. 1109 01:02:04,760 --> 01:02:09,000 Speaker 3: The judge on that topic coming up and going back to, 1110 01:02:10,040 --> 01:02:12,400 Speaker 3: you know, Governor Pritzkers in Illinois comments about, you know, 1111 01:02:12,480 --> 01:02:15,720 Speaker 3: the the chaos that has been unleashed by the federal 1112 01:02:15,760 --> 01:02:19,400 Speaker 3: government and going and attacking US citizens and arresting US citizens. 1113 01:02:19,440 --> 01:02:22,800 Speaker 3: Here we go great illustration of this. If you're a 1114 01:02:22,960 --> 01:02:25,240 Speaker 3: US citizen and you're arrested, according to the Department of 1115 01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:28,760 Speaker 3: Homeland Security, it's because you committed a crime, not because 1116 01:02:28,800 --> 01:02:30,480 Speaker 3: you're a US citizen who had just happened to be 1117 01:02:30,520 --> 01:02:32,760 Speaker 3: in the wrong place at the wrong time. Here's an 1118 01:02:32,760 --> 01:02:38,840 Speaker 3: illustration and an eye opening one too, a professor at 1119 01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:41,000 Speaker 3: the University of Chicago. Go ahead and try to get 1120 01:02:41,000 --> 01:02:43,160 Speaker 3: your kid in the University of Chicago. Check out your tuition. 1121 01:02:43,280 --> 01:02:45,800 Speaker 3: Then remember that we have this kind of professor teaching you. 1122 01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:51,800 Speaker 3: Resting on Friday, charge with following riots and immigrations and 1123 01:02:51,840 --> 01:02:58,880 Speaker 3: Custom Enforcement Center authority, said Aimon abdel Hadi. She's an 1124 01:02:58,880 --> 01:03:01,440 Speaker 3: associate professor, and get a load. What the hell is 1125 01:03:01,560 --> 01:03:11,160 Speaker 3: this the Department of Comparative and Human Development. I have 1126 01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:13,440 Speaker 3: no idea what that is. Anyway, they have a department there, 1127 01:03:14,680 --> 01:03:17,680 Speaker 3: and this is an associate professor within that mysterious department. 1128 01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:21,800 Speaker 3: Charged with two counts of aggravated battery against the government employee, 1129 01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:24,720 Speaker 3: which is a felony. Two counts of resisting or obstructing 1130 01:03:24,800 --> 01:03:29,840 Speaker 3: peace officers at protest outside the ICE sight in Chicago crimes. 1131 01:03:31,480 --> 01:03:34,280 Speaker 3: Since it's not mentioned in the reporting that a. Aiman 1132 01:03:34,480 --> 01:03:38,560 Speaker 3: abdel Hattie is an illegal immigrants, so I'm gonna assume 1133 01:03:38,640 --> 01:03:43,080 Speaker 3: that she is not usually widely reported when ICE picks 1134 01:03:43,160 --> 01:03:45,440 Speaker 3: up someone and arrest them. That, in addition to being 1135 01:03:45,520 --> 01:03:48,120 Speaker 3: engaged in criminal activity resulting in the arrest. They also 1136 01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:50,400 Speaker 3: happen to be in here illegally. That was not mentioned. 1137 01:03:54,360 --> 01:04:04,840 Speaker 3: As for the professor described as a radical sociologist. A 1138 01:04:04,960 --> 01:04:09,640 Speaker 3: radical sociologist okay, at least the New York Post described 1139 01:04:09,640 --> 01:04:12,800 Speaker 3: her as such. They posted pictures from rally on Friday, 1140 01:04:12,840 --> 01:04:16,360 Speaker 3: accusing Illinois state troopers of enforcing President Trump's agenda of 1141 01:04:16,640 --> 01:04:23,080 Speaker 3: terrorizing our community with abductions. Huh, she's previously accused. Well, 1142 01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:24,880 Speaker 3: her own employer. Get a load of this, talk about 1143 01:04:24,920 --> 01:04:26,880 Speaker 3: biting the hands that feed you. What a total radical? 1144 01:04:27,600 --> 01:04:29,840 Speaker 3: Her employer, the University of Chicago. She was at a 1145 01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:35,440 Speaker 3: Socialism twenty twenty five conference, blank f word, the University 1146 01:04:35,480 --> 01:04:39,400 Speaker 3: of Chicago. My employer. It's evil, you know, it's a 1147 01:04:39,480 --> 01:04:43,320 Speaker 3: colonial landlord. Like, why would I put any of my 1148 01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:50,080 Speaker 3: political energy into this space? Huh? I kind of had 1149 01:04:50,160 --> 01:04:52,440 Speaker 3: a little bit of disdain for people who spend their 1150 01:04:52,520 --> 01:05:02,560 Speaker 3: time doing that. Now, unpackaged that she's talking about her employer. Okay, 1151 01:05:03,600 --> 01:05:06,680 Speaker 3: I think the salient point is here. US citizen professor 1152 01:05:06,920 --> 01:05:14,040 Speaker 3: at a distinguished university arrested for committing a crime, not 1153 01:05:15,440 --> 01:05:17,720 Speaker 3: for being a US citizen in the wrong place. At 1154 01:05:17,720 --> 01:05:23,800 Speaker 3: the wrong time. Annie Real quickly here to show what 1155 01:05:24,160 --> 01:05:28,840 Speaker 3: actually can be done in a government shutdown, Republicans yesterday 1156 01:05:29,480 --> 01:05:34,080 Speaker 3: approved more than one hundred Trump nominees. They've been held 1157 01:05:34,160 --> 01:05:36,640 Speaker 3: up now for months, but they had a rule change 1158 01:05:36,680 --> 01:05:38,760 Speaker 3: over in the Senate which allows them to fast track 1159 01:05:38,880 --> 01:05:41,240 Speaker 3: these folks. So it's a whole bunch of folks. And 1160 01:05:41,360 --> 01:05:45,280 Speaker 3: it's not just judges. It's like ambassadors to the Bahama, 1161 01:05:45,480 --> 01:05:48,080 Speaker 3: the ambassador to India. Those are approved, a variety of 1162 01:05:48,160 --> 01:05:52,600 Speaker 3: other people will approved, but in one unanimous or in 1163 01:05:52,720 --> 01:05:56,760 Speaker 3: one vote. So my understanding is the rule change allows 1164 01:05:56,840 --> 01:05:59,200 Speaker 3: a lot of these to be just sort of pushed 1165 01:05:59,200 --> 01:06:01,640 Speaker 3: through under one single votes. He got one hundred plus 1166 01:06:03,200 --> 01:06:08,560 Speaker 3: appointees or nominees one single vote cast, all of them approved, 1167 01:06:08,560 --> 01:06:11,280 Speaker 3: a total of one hundred and seven. So congratulations, he 1168 01:06:11,360 --> 01:06:14,640 Speaker 3: actually got something done during a government shutdown. I'll just 1169 01:06:14,720 --> 01:06:16,840 Speaker 3: ask an out loud question, rhetorical as it may be, 1170 01:06:17,080 --> 01:06:20,280 Speaker 3: are they working on the twelve appropriation bills right now? 1171 01:06:20,680 --> 01:06:22,960 Speaker 3: Because if they ultimately hammer out and we get a 1172 01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:27,960 Speaker 3: continuing resolution, let's say next week, I mean the expiration 1173 01:06:28,120 --> 01:06:32,040 Speaker 3: dates like the November in the middle of November, so 1174 01:06:32,120 --> 01:06:34,840 Speaker 3: we're gonna be revisiting the exact same thing now if 1175 01:06:34,840 --> 01:06:37,240 Speaker 3: they don't get the twelve appropriations done by the next 1176 01:06:37,360 --> 01:06:41,280 Speaker 3: deadline that they're arguing about now for the past week. Yeah, 1177 01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:43,920 Speaker 3: Big Picture with Jack Avinan after the top of the 1178 01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:47,160 Speaker 3: our news we're gonna find out about the communist NFL together, 1179 01:06:47,320 --> 01:07:01,040 Speaker 3: stick around today's top story. It's seven to six on 1180 01:07:01,160 --> 01:07:03,760 Speaker 3: a Wednesday. It is that time when we get to 1181 01:07:03,840 --> 01:07:06,640 Speaker 3: hear the brilliance of our friend Jack Aviden, and it's 1182 01:07:06,680 --> 01:07:08,360 Speaker 3: time for the Big Picture with Jack Avidy And I 1183 01:07:08,440 --> 01:07:11,160 Speaker 3: was really intrigued about your subject matter. Welcome back, Jack, 1184 01:07:11,240 --> 01:07:12,560 Speaker 3: always great having you on the show. 1185 01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:16,720 Speaker 9: Thank you for having me backpal. As you know, my 1186 01:07:16,880 --> 01:07:21,200 Speaker 9: favorite sport is what Howard Cosell used to call the 1187 01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:25,760 Speaker 9: National Football League. That was back when we were kids 1188 01:07:26,240 --> 01:07:30,000 Speaker 9: and the NFL was just another big business, not today's 1189 01:07:30,440 --> 01:07:33,840 Speaker 9: death star. Wait what did he say? Yeah, who's being 1190 01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:38,040 Speaker 9: killed by the NFL? Well, certainly not the owners. Mike 1191 01:07:38,160 --> 01:07:42,680 Speaker 9: Brown and his thirty one NFL partners are expected to 1192 01:07:42,800 --> 01:07:46,560 Speaker 9: rake in twenty three billion dollars this year. 1193 01:07:46,800 --> 01:07:47,600 Speaker 3: Easy and all the. 1194 01:07:47,600 --> 01:07:51,480 Speaker 9: Other businesses living off the NFL they're doing okay too. 1195 01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:55,720 Speaker 9: From TV networks that as we've discussed Brian are being 1196 01:07:55,920 --> 01:07:59,880 Speaker 9: kept alive by football to the makers of NFL Jersey 1197 01:08:00,160 --> 01:08:04,400 Speaker 9: another year. Most of it made in communists China, to 1198 01:08:04,560 --> 01:08:09,840 Speaker 9: gambling palaces and bookies, right down to the mascots. I 1199 01:08:09,960 --> 01:08:14,360 Speaker 9: have spotted who Day in costume at some of Cincinnati's 1200 01:08:14,440 --> 01:08:18,840 Speaker 9: swankiest restaurants with a whole bevy of Bengal cheerleaders. It's 1201 01:08:18,960 --> 01:08:23,080 Speaker 9: good to be connected with the NFL. But crazy as 1202 01:08:23,120 --> 01:08:27,320 Speaker 9: it sounds, Brian, cruel as it sounds, the guys who 1203 01:08:27,400 --> 01:08:30,200 Speaker 9: are being killed by the NFL are some of the 1204 01:08:30,320 --> 01:08:34,120 Speaker 9: league's best players, the ones who go number one in 1205 01:08:34,240 --> 01:08:37,280 Speaker 9: the draft. And that's because when it comes to the draft, 1206 01:08:37,760 --> 01:08:41,840 Speaker 9: pro football owners agree with your favorite saying my friend 1207 01:08:41,920 --> 01:08:47,240 Speaker 9: from Karl Marx, from each that is, from each draft prospect, 1208 01:08:47,640 --> 01:08:52,000 Speaker 9: according to his ability to each meaning to each bad 1209 01:08:52,120 --> 01:08:57,720 Speaker 9: team owner, according to his needs for leftists who don't 1210 01:08:57,760 --> 01:09:01,320 Speaker 9: follow football because it's too brutal, let me explain how 1211 01:09:01,360 --> 01:09:06,439 Speaker 9: this works. American football seeks parody among its thirty two teams. 1212 01:09:07,080 --> 01:09:10,840 Speaker 9: It's a worthy goal. So the NFL spreads young talent 1213 01:09:10,920 --> 01:09:13,960 Speaker 9: around by letting teams with the worst records get the 1214 01:09:14,080 --> 01:09:18,559 Speaker 9: highest picks in the draft. That's great, for the losing teams, 1215 01:09:19,200 --> 01:09:24,880 Speaker 9: especially if they are perennially losing teams, but it banishes 1216 01:09:24,960 --> 01:09:29,320 Speaker 9: the most coveted college players to Siberia otherwise known as 1217 01:09:30,479 --> 01:09:34,720 Speaker 9: pick them, the Jets, the Panthers, and with some exceptions, 1218 01:09:34,800 --> 01:09:37,080 Speaker 9: we've had some good seasons, but over the course of 1219 01:09:37,280 --> 01:09:41,519 Speaker 9: decades our Bengals, there's a reason that nationally they are 1220 01:09:41,600 --> 01:09:45,400 Speaker 9: known as the Bungals. Teams with owners who know less 1221 01:09:45,720 --> 01:09:50,960 Speaker 9: about football than how to make money, the NFL sacrifices 1222 01:09:51,479 --> 01:09:56,920 Speaker 9: its most promising young quarterbacks the way ancient Greeks sacrificed virgins. 1223 01:09:57,600 --> 01:10:00,519 Speaker 9: Now it's true, Brian, not many college quarterbacks are virgins. 1224 01:10:01,040 --> 01:10:06,040 Speaker 9: But does this sacrifice, this reward for losing, really help 1225 01:10:06,120 --> 01:10:07,559 Speaker 9: bad teams get any smarter? 1226 01:10:08,240 --> 01:10:08,519 Speaker 5: Does it? 1227 01:10:08,600 --> 01:10:12,040 Speaker 9: Finally dawn on Mike Brown that in order to protect 1228 01:10:12,080 --> 01:10:15,800 Speaker 9: his latest shiny new quarterback, maybe the Bengals ought to 1229 01:10:15,800 --> 01:10:19,720 Speaker 9: pick up great offensive linemen big beefies. 1230 01:10:20,120 --> 01:10:26,240 Speaker 3: But intell it, it seems so obvious the strategy. Jack, 1231 01:10:26,280 --> 01:10:31,000 Speaker 3: I'm sorry, I'm laughing. Go ahead. Did we lose him? 1232 01:10:32,600 --> 01:10:35,280 Speaker 3: We lost him? So what do you want me to do? Joe? 1233 01:10:36,439 --> 01:10:39,680 Speaker 3: Jack Atherton is back. Jack, welcome back. You got cut off. 1234 01:10:39,720 --> 01:10:41,240 Speaker 3: I don't know how it happened, but we lost you. 1235 01:10:41,320 --> 01:10:43,719 Speaker 3: I was laughing at your comment about maybe the Bengals 1236 01:10:43,800 --> 01:10:47,200 Speaker 3: might consider larger people on the offensive line, which was 1237 01:10:47,240 --> 01:10:50,360 Speaker 3: a great idea. You have to be a coaching genius 1238 01:10:50,400 --> 01:10:52,439 Speaker 3: to figure that one out. Anyway, Jack, you have the floor. 1239 01:10:52,560 --> 01:10:53,080 Speaker 3: Welcome back. 1240 01:10:54,200 --> 01:10:56,479 Speaker 5: Oh, I know how I got cut off. The NFL 1241 01:10:56,600 --> 01:11:00,559 Speaker 5: strikes again. I was saying, we need a big deep 1242 01:11:00,600 --> 01:11:03,880 Speaker 5: of guys like Andrew Whitworth. You remember him. He was 1243 01:11:03,880 --> 01:11:06,160 Speaker 5: one of the best players, one of the best people 1244 01:11:06,760 --> 01:11:10,080 Speaker 5: the Bengals ever had under contract. Well, Mike Brown let 1245 01:11:10,160 --> 01:11:14,439 Speaker 5: Whitworth walk all the way to Los Angeles, where he 1246 01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:18,000 Speaker 5: was instrumental in winning a Super Bowl for the Rams. 1247 01:11:18,560 --> 01:11:22,040 Speaker 5: All right, let's fast forward fast through Joe Burrow, the 1248 01:11:22,120 --> 01:11:25,479 Speaker 5: most talented quarterback I've ever seen, and I go back 1249 01:11:25,640 --> 01:11:29,920 Speaker 5: Don Unitis and Joe Namath. Joe Burrow feels less like 1250 01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:33,800 Speaker 5: a quarterback than a manager who's being rushed by all 1251 01:11:33,880 --> 01:11:38,280 Speaker 5: the bulls at Pamplona, rushed this season once again to 1252 01:11:38,400 --> 01:11:42,639 Speaker 5: the hospital. This could lead Joe to follow Carson Palmer. 1253 01:11:42,800 --> 01:11:47,080 Speaker 5: We remember Carson, the bengals previous number one quarterback. He 1254 01:11:47,320 --> 01:11:51,000 Speaker 5: retired in frustration and only came back to the NFL 1255 01:11:51,400 --> 01:11:56,040 Speaker 5: when he was allowed to play for another team. My point, Brian, 1256 01:11:56,880 --> 01:12:01,800 Speaker 5: is that communism does not work, can be awfully cruel. Yes, 1257 01:12:01,840 --> 01:12:05,280 Speaker 5: the NFL has good intentions. It wants every team, no 1258 01:12:05,400 --> 01:12:09,080 Speaker 5: matter how crueless its ownership, to have a chance. So 1259 01:12:09,200 --> 01:12:14,519 Speaker 5: the league keeps rewarding failure and sacrifice, seeing merits twitching 1260 01:12:14,760 --> 01:12:18,120 Speaker 5: as you new On would friends to politics. That's what 1261 01:12:18,240 --> 01:12:22,240 Speaker 5: democrats socialists do today, and with far less reason. The 1262 01:12:22,400 --> 01:12:26,120 Speaker 5: NFL at least seeks to foster competition, and the league 1263 01:12:26,160 --> 01:12:29,120 Speaker 5: knows that even the most shell shocks the young quarterbacks 1264 01:12:29,439 --> 01:12:33,920 Speaker 5: will be paid unless their careers are cut short the 1265 01:12:34,000 --> 01:12:37,400 Speaker 5: way another Andrew Andrew lux was because the late jimmy 1266 01:12:37,520 --> 01:12:41,439 Speaker 5: Erci's colts failed to protect him. Let's pray that never 1267 01:12:41,520 --> 01:12:45,120 Speaker 5: happens to Joe Burrow. But by keeping bad teams hopeful 1268 01:12:45,280 --> 01:12:49,639 Speaker 5: every spring by rewarding their idiocy with number one draft picks, 1269 01:12:49,800 --> 01:12:52,920 Speaker 5: the NFL is not helping the sports or the fans, 1270 01:12:53,280 --> 01:12:57,839 Speaker 5: and certainly not the young athletes who train and compete 1271 01:12:57,880 --> 01:13:00,800 Speaker 5: from the time they suit up for Pop Warner as 1272 01:13:00,880 --> 01:13:05,320 Speaker 5: five year olds. Just as democrats socialists don't help children 1273 01:13:05,840 --> 01:13:09,040 Speaker 5: by insisting that high schools graduate them and then send 1274 01:13:09,080 --> 01:13:12,480 Speaker 5: them off to college and then hire them for dei 1275 01:13:12,760 --> 01:13:17,320 Speaker 5: government jobs when they are still functionally illiterate. And we're 1276 01:13:17,320 --> 01:13:21,280 Speaker 5: talking about kids that both sexes and all races and ethnicities, 1277 01:13:21,320 --> 01:13:24,160 Speaker 5: so don't call me a racist. The answer, I think 1278 01:13:25,040 --> 01:13:29,120 Speaker 5: is to penalize schools and teachers that receive taxpayer funding 1279 01:13:29,479 --> 01:13:33,880 Speaker 5: but cannot meet basic standards and more important, to help 1280 01:13:33,920 --> 01:13:38,800 Speaker 5: their students, which remedial courses, not phony diplomas. It also 1281 01:13:38,880 --> 01:13:41,479 Speaker 5: wouldn't hurt Brian to make more of an effort to 1282 01:13:41,680 --> 01:13:46,000 Speaker 5: enlist parents into helping their own kids. Because schools and 1283 01:13:46,120 --> 01:13:50,040 Speaker 5: Hillary Clinton's village cannot do it all, they shouldn't be 1284 01:13:50,160 --> 01:13:54,880 Speaker 5: expected to do it all. It takes parents, preferably to parents, 1285 01:13:55,240 --> 01:13:59,479 Speaker 5: to raise children finally, not nearly as important as kids 1286 01:13:59,520 --> 01:14:02,080 Speaker 5: in school, but important to long suffer in football fans. 1287 01:14:02,840 --> 01:14:05,599 Speaker 5: I think the NFL should limit the number of times 1288 01:14:05,880 --> 01:14:09,840 Speaker 5: bad teams can ruin the top draft picks. Having to 1289 01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:13,160 Speaker 5: compete for players is the only way bad teams will 1290 01:14:13,200 --> 01:14:18,240 Speaker 5: finally improve. Brian recall it the National Football League because 1291 01:14:18,280 --> 01:14:22,080 Speaker 5: it's all Americans. Let's make sure the NFL and our 1292 01:14:22,160 --> 01:14:27,280 Speaker 5: schools uphold the American ideal. Of rewarding not failure, but 1293 01:14:27,479 --> 01:14:29,559 Speaker 5: real merits. What are you saying? 1294 01:14:29,640 --> 01:14:34,280 Speaker 3: No, of course I love the segue into education. Very 1295 01:14:34,320 --> 01:14:37,679 Speaker 3: well done pivoting from NFL. But I guess it seems 1296 01:14:37,680 --> 01:14:39,559 Speaker 3: to me and my initial reaction to your point about, 1297 01:14:39,600 --> 01:14:41,599 Speaker 3: you know, giving the poorest teams the first draft courts 1298 01:14:41,640 --> 01:14:46,200 Speaker 3: choice is just because someone is desired and is a 1299 01:14:46,520 --> 01:14:49,320 Speaker 3: number one draft pick for a variety of teams because 1300 01:14:49,320 --> 01:14:51,920 Speaker 3: they're the college stats show that they're great players. That 1301 01:14:52,040 --> 01:14:55,840 Speaker 3: doesn't guarantee success in professional football, does it. There have 1302 01:14:55,920 --> 01:14:58,040 Speaker 3: been some real letdowns when it comes to number one 1303 01:14:58,160 --> 01:15:00,560 Speaker 3: draft picks and some of the top draft picks. Is 1304 01:15:00,560 --> 01:15:05,280 Speaker 3: isn't there enough, to your point, available talent among the 1305 01:15:05,439 --> 01:15:08,600 Speaker 3: draftees to satisfy the needs of these teams? So you 1306 01:15:08,680 --> 01:15:11,120 Speaker 3: can't you can pick some, you know, if you're not, 1307 01:15:11,520 --> 01:15:15,240 Speaker 3: you know, given preferential treatment because you suck, you still 1308 01:15:15,320 --> 01:15:17,439 Speaker 3: have an option Because I think the theory behind this 1309 01:15:17,640 --> 01:15:20,040 Speaker 3: allocation is that, well, the game's going to become boring. 1310 01:15:20,560 --> 01:15:22,040 Speaker 3: All the best players are going to end up And 1311 01:15:22,120 --> 01:15:24,120 Speaker 3: it used to be Dallas, right, and oh my god, 1312 01:15:24,200 --> 01:15:26,519 Speaker 3: it's unbeatable to the America's team. They win every time. 1313 01:15:26,720 --> 01:15:29,439 Speaker 3: It was almost a foregune conclusion, making the games kind 1314 01:15:29,479 --> 01:15:32,400 Speaker 3: of well, like, well, I know who's going to win, 1315 01:15:32,479 --> 01:15:34,680 Speaker 3: it's less interesting to watch. I think they think that 1316 01:15:34,800 --> 01:15:39,920 Speaker 3: by sort of wealth redistributing the players into various teams 1317 01:15:40,040 --> 01:15:42,800 Speaker 3: is going to create at least the perception of some 1318 01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:45,560 Speaker 3: fairness between teams. Isn't that the concept behind it? 1319 01:15:46,720 --> 01:15:51,519 Speaker 5: Well, Dallas has another jam, another beauty, as Trump would 1320 01:15:51,520 --> 01:15:59,240 Speaker 5: say of an owner Jerry Jones has tell you about him. Look, yes, 1321 01:15:59,320 --> 01:16:01,240 Speaker 5: there's no guarant see that a player is going to work. 1322 01:16:01,280 --> 01:16:03,400 Speaker 5: You have to sit into a system and it has 1323 01:16:03,479 --> 01:16:06,639 Speaker 5: to be a good sis. Some players realize that they're 1324 01:16:06,680 --> 01:16:10,200 Speaker 5: heading for disaster. John Elaware is the Eli Mannings. They 1325 01:16:10,240 --> 01:16:12,560 Speaker 5: were able to insist that they not have to go 1326 01:16:12,680 --> 01:16:16,519 Speaker 5: to garbage teams, and hopefully the teams that wanted them 1327 01:16:16,560 --> 01:16:18,519 Speaker 5: so bad they learned something from the fact that they 1328 01:16:18,560 --> 01:16:21,120 Speaker 5: were turned down, just as you know. I've been turned 1329 01:16:21,160 --> 01:16:23,880 Speaker 5: down count times like girls, and I hope I learned 1330 01:16:23,920 --> 01:16:26,080 Speaker 5: something from it. Before I thought it was some one 1331 01:16:26,080 --> 01:16:29,200 Speaker 5: who would accept me, and we've been married forty for years. Yeah, 1332 01:16:29,320 --> 01:16:32,920 Speaker 5: it can work out either way. But this idea that 1333 01:16:33,400 --> 01:16:37,559 Speaker 5: once in a generation talent like Joe Burrow and maybe 1334 01:16:37,600 --> 01:16:39,400 Speaker 5: he wasn't a once in a generation talent. But a 1335 01:16:39,439 --> 01:16:42,360 Speaker 5: guy like Baker Mayfield was picked up by Cleveland and 1336 01:16:42,760 --> 01:16:44,680 Speaker 5: could have been ruined. I mean, they could have killed him. 1337 01:16:45,360 --> 01:16:48,719 Speaker 5: And you know, I think by Cleveland is they're so stupid. 1338 01:16:49,000 --> 01:16:51,920 Speaker 5: They had a guy who was a rookie and he 1339 01:16:52,040 --> 01:16:54,879 Speaker 5: had to learn. He took them from one in fifteen 1340 01:16:55,240 --> 01:16:57,519 Speaker 5: to the playoffs and they fill got rid of them. 1341 01:16:57,800 --> 01:17:01,400 Speaker 5: And now Joe Burrow for Macield after going to two 1342 01:17:01,439 --> 01:17:04,920 Speaker 5: other teams, he's doing pretty well down in Tampa Bay. 1343 01:17:05,200 --> 01:17:07,120 Speaker 5: Here's no guarant see how this stuff is going to 1344 01:17:07,160 --> 01:17:09,880 Speaker 5: work out, but Joe Burrow will tell you there was 1345 01:17:09,960 --> 01:17:12,240 Speaker 5: every reasonable lee that he was going to step into 1346 01:17:12,320 --> 01:17:15,719 Speaker 5: a bad situation because of the way the NFL structures 1347 01:17:15,800 --> 01:17:18,920 Speaker 5: these things. And yeah, it was our game, but I 1348 01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:21,439 Speaker 5: hope it's not too much his loss. Man. 1349 01:17:21,640 --> 01:17:22,920 Speaker 3: He does seem to be a bit of a like 1350 01:17:23,000 --> 01:17:25,519 Speaker 3: a glass jaw kind of guy. He's always injured. But 1351 01:17:25,640 --> 01:17:28,400 Speaker 3: you can blame the offensive line. Maybe, yeah, that's certainly 1352 01:17:28,479 --> 01:17:29,080 Speaker 3: something to do with it. 1353 01:17:29,439 --> 01:17:34,040 Speaker 5: And fundamentally, you know, let me say, Joe, according to 1354 01:17:34,120 --> 01:17:35,639 Speaker 5: a lot of people who know a lot more about 1355 01:17:35,680 --> 01:17:39,320 Speaker 5: football than I do, sometimes holds onto the ball too long. 1356 01:17:39,400 --> 01:17:40,920 Speaker 5: You know, he's got to learn to get that quick 1357 01:17:41,040 --> 01:17:44,960 Speaker 5: release that kept you know, Tom Brady's and people like 1358 01:17:45,080 --> 01:17:47,840 Speaker 5: that from from getting hospitalized every year. 1359 01:17:48,040 --> 01:17:50,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, that is because he can't count his offensive line 1360 01:17:50,439 --> 01:17:52,960 Speaker 3: to give him the protection he needs to get the 1361 01:17:53,600 --> 01:17:57,680 Speaker 3: successful pass. I think ultimately, you know, moving away from 1362 01:17:57,720 --> 01:18:01,000 Speaker 3: the politics and the socialism and communism comparisons and the 1363 01:18:01,160 --> 01:18:03,400 Speaker 3: criticisms of the way the draft works all that, I 1364 01:18:03,479 --> 01:18:06,160 Speaker 3: think fundamentally for us it boils down to the ownership 1365 01:18:06,280 --> 01:18:09,680 Speaker 3: and the coaching. Right, if you made better choices in 1366 01:18:09,800 --> 01:18:12,200 Speaker 3: terms of player selection, you might have a better team 1367 01:18:12,280 --> 01:18:13,880 Speaker 3: on your hands, and your quarterback might. 1368 01:18:13,760 --> 01:18:17,080 Speaker 5: Be the ones. Yeah, the owners are the ones who 1369 01:18:17,120 --> 01:18:19,880 Speaker 5: picked their coaches. And there's no salary cap when it 1370 01:18:19,920 --> 01:18:21,519 Speaker 5: comes to a coach. You can go out and get 1371 01:18:21,560 --> 01:18:25,160 Speaker 5: somebody really great. You know. The NFL, I think most 1372 01:18:25,200 --> 01:18:29,080 Speaker 5: people know sports fans now is not like baseball. The 1373 01:18:29,200 --> 01:18:31,640 Speaker 5: owners who are all given basically the same amount of 1374 01:18:31,680 --> 01:18:33,760 Speaker 5: money to play with, and they have salary camps for 1375 01:18:33,840 --> 01:18:37,000 Speaker 5: the players. So if you Bill Burrow, yeah, you have 1376 01:18:37,080 --> 01:18:38,600 Speaker 5: to make sure you have a good coach, you have 1377 01:18:38,680 --> 01:18:40,200 Speaker 5: a good line, and then you got. 1378 01:18:40,200 --> 01:18:42,720 Speaker 3: To have some luck and a little money left over 1379 01:18:42,800 --> 01:18:47,600 Speaker 3: to hire some good sized offensive linemen. Jack Kennedy, a. 1380 01:18:47,600 --> 01:18:50,639 Speaker 5: Little money got focus of the Bengals. Yeah, but look, 1381 01:18:51,040 --> 01:18:53,679 Speaker 5: I don't want to tell businesses how to run their business. 1382 01:18:54,000 --> 01:18:59,160 Speaker 5: I'm a conservative and I'm not suggesting there's anything unconstitutional 1383 01:19:00,080 --> 01:19:03,960 Speaker 5: the arow the like to bad teams. The league is 1384 01:19:04,040 --> 01:19:06,439 Speaker 5: a private organization and they are in titles that run 1385 01:19:06,479 --> 01:19:09,519 Speaker 5: themselves the way they like. But boy, it seems unfair 1386 01:19:09,600 --> 01:19:11,639 Speaker 5: when we don't even see him on the sideline. 1387 01:19:11,680 --> 01:19:13,760 Speaker 3: Now, yeah, that's a good point, Jack, you always made 1388 01:19:13,800 --> 01:19:15,360 Speaker 3: great points. I'm glad you come on the morning show 1389 01:19:15,400 --> 01:19:17,000 Speaker 3: to talk about them. We'll do another big Picture with 1390 01:19:17,120 --> 01:19:17,599 Speaker 3: Jack Ryan. 1391 01:19:17,880 --> 01:19:19,120 Speaker 6: Yeah, forgive me. 1392 01:19:19,160 --> 01:19:20,880 Speaker 5: But can I just mention one of the other things 1393 01:19:20,920 --> 01:19:22,160 Speaker 5: that we end on a positive notes? 1394 01:19:22,320 --> 01:19:24,080 Speaker 2: Yes, kudos to the. 1395 01:19:24,320 --> 01:19:27,960 Speaker 5: Kudos to the University of Cincinnati Bearcats because they are 1396 01:19:28,000 --> 01:19:30,000 Speaker 5: building a football culture and they have then for a 1397 01:19:30,120 --> 01:19:32,680 Speaker 5: while with two ups and downs, but they're doing it 1398 01:19:32,800 --> 01:19:36,439 Speaker 5: the right way and they had a landmark win last Saturday. 1399 01:19:36,560 --> 01:19:37,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, one of the best teams. 1400 01:19:37,720 --> 01:19:40,519 Speaker 5: Eventually, Iowa's faked. I wish I could have rushed the 1401 01:19:40,560 --> 01:19:44,040 Speaker 5: field with everybody else down at Nippert So good luck 1402 01:19:44,080 --> 01:19:44,320 Speaker 5: to them. 1403 01:19:44,400 --> 01:19:48,080 Speaker 3: Again and it's not just luck well and contrasting the 1404 01:19:48,280 --> 01:19:52,120 Speaker 3: football team. When I was in college, there was no 1405 01:19:52,280 --> 01:19:53,960 Speaker 3: reason to go to the game other than to take 1406 01:19:54,000 --> 01:19:56,519 Speaker 3: your bagg of knops and excuse for a party. They 1407 01:19:56,640 --> 01:19:58,680 Speaker 3: sucked huge back when I was in college. So I'm 1408 01:19:58,680 --> 01:20:00,439 Speaker 3: glad to see him doing well, and I'm glad you 1409 01:20:00,520 --> 01:20:02,280 Speaker 3: have the have you on the program, JACKI and I 1410 01:20:02,360 --> 01:20:04,439 Speaker 3: appreciate your thoughts and comments and your insight.

In the meantime, 1421 01:20:34,080 --> 01:20:36,080 Speaker 3: Welcome back to the fifty five carsee morning show from 1422 01:20:36,120 --> 01:20:38,920 Speaker 3: Americans for Prosperity. Donovan and he it's always great having 1423 01:20:38,920 --> 01:20:42,080 Speaker 3: you on the show. Donovan Brian, always a pleasure to 1424 01:20:42,080 --> 01:20:44,160 Speaker 3: start my Wednesday with you, and I've been laughing all 1425 01:20:44,240 --> 01:20:47,360 Speaker 3: morning at the subject matter is just make government work? 1426 01:20:47,439 --> 01:20:50,320 Speaker 3: Campus like, is that even possible? They have to be 1427 01:20:50,439 --> 01:20:52,760 Speaker 3: open to get work done, apparently, although they were able 1428 01:20:52,800 --> 01:20:55,160 Speaker 3: to approve one hundred and seven of Donald Trump's nominees 1429 01:20:55,240 --> 01:20:58,280 Speaker 3: and positions yesterday, uh, fast tracking that. But they had 1430 01:20:58,320 --> 01:21:00,680 Speaker 3: a solution for that that didn't require sixty votes in 1431 01:21:00,720 --> 01:21:03,560 Speaker 3: the Senate. They need that many votes to get the 1432 01:21:03,600 --> 01:21:06,679 Speaker 3: government open again. So absent and open government, I doubt 1433 01:21:06,720 --> 01:21:08,960 Speaker 3: it's going to be working. Some of my listeners are 1434 01:21:08,960 --> 01:21:11,280 Speaker 3: actually quite pleased about that. Before we jump to the 1435 01:21:11,280 --> 01:21:14,760 Speaker 3: make Government Work program, your reaction to the Democrats lining 1436 01:21:14,800 --> 01:21:16,880 Speaker 3: the same position on this, I mean, we keep going 1437 01:21:16,960 --> 01:21:21,320 Speaker 3: back to the fact that the premium supplements were waved. 1438 01:21:21,400 --> 01:21:25,639 Speaker 3: The cap was waved because of COVID, and they put 1439 01:21:25,760 --> 01:21:28,920 Speaker 3: an end date in that legislation, which is the end 1440 01:21:28,960 --> 01:21:31,639 Speaker 3: of this calendar year. That was by the Democrat's own hand. 1441 01:21:31,680 --> 01:21:34,880 Speaker 3: It's something they agreed to. They're going to end. COVID 1442 01:21:35,040 --> 01:21:37,160 Speaker 3: is over. We have no reason to continue this, and 1443 01:21:37,240 --> 01:21:39,840 Speaker 3: yet they're the Democrats are insisting that we give all 1444 01:21:39,960 --> 01:21:42,599 Speaker 3: kinds of people, including illegal immigrants, but even people who 1445 01:21:42,680 --> 01:21:45,240 Speaker 3: make two hundred and three hundred four hundred thousand dollars 1446 01:21:45,280 --> 01:21:47,519 Speaker 3: a year or how whatever amount over sixty two to five. 1447 01:21:47,560 --> 01:21:49,599 Speaker 3: They're going to get a break and have their premium 1448 01:21:49,640 --> 01:21:52,639 Speaker 3: supplement by the American tax payer. I don't get how 1449 01:21:52,720 --> 01:21:54,920 Speaker 3: they have any traction on this at all, donov and 1450 01:21:54,960 --> 01:21:56,719 Speaker 3: I just want to get your reaction to their position 1451 01:21:56,800 --> 01:21:58,000 Speaker 3: relative to the Republicans. 1452 01:21:59,520 --> 01:22:04,040 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, and the reality is there is zero connection 1453 01:22:04,400 --> 01:22:09,360 Speaker 1: between this government shut down and the demands of Chuck 1454 01:22:09,439 --> 01:22:14,840 Speaker 1: Schumer on these COVID subsidies. They're entirely and wholly unrelated. 1455 01:22:15,439 --> 01:22:17,800 Speaker 1: And the fact that this narrative continues to be able 1456 01:22:17,880 --> 01:22:22,040 Speaker 1: to exist, you know, in traditional media, and that they're 1457 01:22:22,160 --> 01:22:24,720 Speaker 1: not being laughed out of Washington, DC the Democrats over 1458 01:22:24,800 --> 01:22:29,759 Speaker 1: this is just unbelievable, zero connection, Brian, between our government 1459 01:22:29,880 --> 01:22:34,320 Speaker 1: not functioning right now, military pay at risk, federal employees 1460 01:22:34,400 --> 01:22:39,000 Speaker 1: pay at risk next week, and these COVID subsidies totally unrelated, 1461 01:22:39,120 --> 01:22:39,519 Speaker 1: And it's. 1462 01:22:39,479 --> 01:22:42,200 Speaker 3: Such a black and white there's no gray area in this. 1463 01:22:42,400 --> 01:22:45,519 Speaker 3: The continued resolution offered by the Republicans is the Biden 1464 01:22:45,720 --> 01:22:49,000 Speaker 3: level of spending. So the Democrats aren't complaining about all 1465 01:22:49,080 --> 01:22:51,720 Speaker 3: the evil Republicans. CR wants to cut this, that and 1466 01:22:51,760 --> 01:22:56,280 Speaker 3: the other thing. No, it doesn't, so that argument isn't there. 1467 01:22:56,400 --> 01:22:59,280 Speaker 3: So we really are talking about extending these COVID era 1468 01:22:59,439 --> 01:23:03,719 Speaker 3: supplements that message the reality the black and the reality 1469 01:23:03,800 --> 01:23:05,800 Speaker 3: of the black and white nature of this dispute that 1470 01:23:05,960 --> 01:23:08,800 Speaker 3: it isn't resonating or maybe is lost on the American people. 1471 01:23:08,840 --> 01:23:11,000 Speaker 3: That's a struggle that you deal with Americans for prosperity 1472 01:23:11,040 --> 01:23:13,599 Speaker 3: all the time. If people don't pay attention, if they 1473 01:23:13,640 --> 01:23:17,680 Speaker 3: don't bother looking into the whys and wherefores, they're just 1474 01:23:17,760 --> 01:23:20,040 Speaker 3: going to listen to a SoundBite from the Democrats or 1475 01:23:20,120 --> 01:23:22,160 Speaker 3: the Republicans as the case maybe, but they're going to 1476 01:23:22,160 --> 01:23:23,439 Speaker 3: be in a factual vacuum. 1477 01:23:25,080 --> 01:23:26,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think that's part of what we've been 1478 01:23:27,000 --> 01:23:30,000 Speaker 1: out there driving and I think Speaker Johnson and the 1479 01:23:30,280 --> 01:23:33,320 Speaker 1: Republican majority in Congress have done a great job of 1480 01:23:33,680 --> 01:23:36,400 Speaker 1: driving that home. We have to reject the Democrats premise 1481 01:23:36,439 --> 01:23:38,840 Speaker 1: here there's no need for a deal, that it's a 1482 01:23:39,040 --> 01:23:43,679 Speaker 1: manufactured crisis that is easily resolved with the clean Continuing 1483 01:23:43,720 --> 01:23:48,120 Speaker 1: Resolution that's already passed out of Congress. Is oversitting with 1484 01:23:48,200 --> 01:23:51,320 Speaker 1: the Senate and just takes sixty votes. It'd be great 1485 01:23:51,360 --> 01:23:53,160 Speaker 1: to get one hundred, right, to get everybody to agree 1486 01:23:53,200 --> 01:23:55,479 Speaker 1: we're just going to keep our government running while we 1487 01:23:55,600 --> 01:23:57,800 Speaker 1: proceed through the normal order of business of getting these 1488 01:23:57,840 --> 01:24:02,120 Speaker 1: budget bills completed and sent to the press. It and 1489 01:24:02,240 --> 01:24:04,880 Speaker 1: so yeah, the idea here, Brian Wright, is reject the 1490 01:24:04,920 --> 01:24:08,280 Speaker 1: premise of what Democrats are putting for because it's it's bogus, 1491 01:24:08,439 --> 01:24:11,879 Speaker 1: it's not real. They're unconnected issues, and the crisis exists 1492 01:24:12,000 --> 01:24:15,839 Speaker 1: only because Chuck Schumer wants to use the September thirtieth 1493 01:24:16,040 --> 01:24:18,959 Speaker 1: end of the federal fiscal year. He used the September 1494 01:24:19,000 --> 01:24:21,759 Speaker 1: thirtieth end of the fiscal year to create a crisis 1495 01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:25,040 Speaker 1: and to try to score some partisan wins on an 1496 01:24:25,080 --> 01:24:29,040 Speaker 1: issue that they can talk about, debate and discuss beyond 1497 01:24:29,200 --> 01:24:30,160 Speaker 1: the government shutdown. 1498 01:24:30,280 --> 01:24:33,160 Speaker 3: Well, you mentioned Johnson when he was he did his 1499 01:24:33,280 --> 01:24:39,240 Speaker 3: press conference on this issue. He was bulletproof, rock solid, 1500 01:24:39,600 --> 01:24:43,439 Speaker 3: very just laid out point by point reason why this 1501 01:24:43,720 --> 01:24:45,320 Speaker 3: is all on the Democrats corner. The point that I 1502 01:24:45,439 --> 01:24:47,960 Speaker 3: just boiled down a moment ago about these COVID nineteen 1503 01:24:48,040 --> 01:24:50,479 Speaker 3: year or something mean, you couldn't It was just easy 1504 01:24:50,560 --> 01:24:52,880 Speaker 3: to unpackage and easy to listen to. But if no 1505 01:24:52,960 --> 01:24:56,599 Speaker 3: one's listening to that message. I heard a talking head 1506 01:24:56,640 --> 01:24:59,800 Speaker 3: comment on that that you know X number of people 1507 01:25:00,040 --> 01:25:02,880 Speaker 3: actually watched it or clicked on the replay on social 1508 01:25:02,960 --> 01:25:06,880 Speaker 3: media versus Bernie Sanders or whoever else rambling about the 1509 01:25:07,000 --> 01:25:10,599 Speaker 3: evil Republicans which had millions and millions by contrast clicks 1510 01:25:10,640 --> 01:25:13,559 Speaker 3: on it. So if you're hiding in that factual vacuum, 1511 01:25:13,560 --> 01:25:15,519 Speaker 3: you're not interested in hearing what Johnson's going to say. 1512 01:25:15,680 --> 01:25:17,960 Speaker 3: You're not going to see how bulletproof is logic is. 1513 01:25:18,120 --> 01:25:21,799 Speaker 3: So there's that uphill struggle. We constantly deal with waking 1514 01:25:21,840 --> 01:25:24,040 Speaker 3: the American people up and getting them to try and 1515 01:25:24,080 --> 01:25:27,280 Speaker 3: pay attention. So let's pause. We'll bring Donovan O'Neil back 1516 01:25:27,280 --> 01:25:30,080 Speaker 3: and talk specifically about how you and I can help 1517 01:25:30,360 --> 01:25:33,240 Speaker 3: make government work to the extent that's a good idea. 1518 01:25:33,320 --> 01:25:35,719 Speaker 3: We'll continue to de talk Station Brian Thomas with Americans 1519 01:25:35,760 --> 01:25:40,240 Speaker 3: for Prosperities Dominant O'Neill on the concept of make government work. 1520 01:25:40,640 --> 01:25:43,600 Speaker 3: Over at makegovernmentwork dot org. You can find all the 1521 01:25:43,960 --> 01:25:49,280 Speaker 3: I love this one, Donovan particularly, you have five specific acts, 1522 01:25:49,320 --> 01:25:52,160 Speaker 3: the Reorganizing Government Act to prevent government Shutdown Zact, the 1523 01:25:52,200 --> 01:25:55,240 Speaker 3: Rains Act among them, and each one would go a 1524 01:25:55,479 --> 01:25:57,960 Speaker 3: long long way to accomplish the goals of my listeners 1525 01:25:58,479 --> 01:26:00,479 Speaker 3: and I are really hoping to see some day, you know, 1526 01:26:00,600 --> 01:26:04,640 Speaker 3: getting rid of inefficiency, getting rid of bureaucracy, streamlining processes, 1527 01:26:04,680 --> 01:26:08,160 Speaker 3: making government more efficient, and preventing the government from shutting 1528 01:26:08,200 --> 01:26:10,280 Speaker 3: down in the event they can't resolve things. So let's 1529 01:26:10,280 --> 01:26:12,240 Speaker 3: talk about some of these. Congressman Massy has brought up 1530 01:26:12,240 --> 01:26:15,280 Speaker 3: some of these particular acts before. But an opportunity you've 1531 01:26:15,320 --> 01:26:17,680 Speaker 3: made so easy for our listeners to get engaged. Just 1532 01:26:17,720 --> 01:26:20,640 Speaker 3: give them your name and your email address, and so 1533 01:26:20,720 --> 01:26:23,040 Speaker 3: they'll send you a call to action from time to time. 1534 01:26:23,160 --> 01:26:25,040 Speaker 3: This is the well oiled machine that we need on 1535 01:26:25,160 --> 01:26:26,960 Speaker 3: our side of the political ledger, much in the same 1536 01:26:27,000 --> 01:26:30,080 Speaker 3: way those leftists and Marxists and socialists have such a 1537 01:26:30,120 --> 01:26:32,680 Speaker 3: well lower machine when it comes to social media. So 1538 01:26:32,960 --> 01:26:36,599 Speaker 3: help you help yourself, help Americans for our prosperity. Let's 1539 01:26:36,600 --> 01:26:40,000 Speaker 3: talk about some of these. Donovan, the Reorganizing Government Act. 1540 01:26:41,720 --> 01:26:45,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is this is a piece of legislation from 1541 01:26:45,160 --> 01:26:46,840 Speaker 1: Kentucky Representative James Comer. 1542 01:26:47,240 --> 01:26:48,320 Speaker 2: It's active legislation. 1543 01:26:48,680 --> 01:26:51,479 Speaker 1: We've got nineteen co sponsors right now, and what it 1544 01:26:51,520 --> 01:26:56,439 Speaker 1: would require is an independent review for waste and overlapping services, 1545 01:26:56,600 --> 01:27:00,680 Speaker 1: provide Congress with reorganization plans right to I'll sort of 1546 01:27:00,880 --> 01:27:05,240 Speaker 1: pinpoint from independent analysis what needs to be done to 1547 01:27:05,360 --> 01:27:10,439 Speaker 1: get you the duplicative regulatory bodies and just the bloat 1548 01:27:10,640 --> 01:27:14,439 Speaker 1: and overweight of government streamlines so it can actually operate efficiently. 1549 01:27:14,479 --> 01:27:16,720 Speaker 1: And these aren't like I mean, they are pie and 1550 01:27:16,760 --> 01:27:19,799 Speaker 1: the sky ideas Brian right. But like outside of government, 1551 01:27:20,479 --> 01:27:24,880 Speaker 1: large organizations, large complex organizations are able to do this stuff, 1552 01:27:24,920 --> 01:27:26,919 Speaker 1: and we just need to bring some of those practices 1553 01:27:26,960 --> 01:27:29,800 Speaker 1: and ideas to government to make it work at a 1554 01:27:29,880 --> 01:27:32,840 Speaker 1: cost effective way with the precious tax tape pair dollars 1555 01:27:32,880 --> 01:27:37,920 Speaker 1: we give it so that it can function without chaos 1556 01:27:38,040 --> 01:27:39,000 Speaker 1: and craziness. 1557 01:27:39,200 --> 01:27:41,920 Speaker 3: Well, because the free markets out here in the real world, 1558 01:27:41,960 --> 01:27:43,560 Speaker 3: where real work has to be done and they have 1559 01:27:43,720 --> 01:27:47,000 Speaker 3: to make a real profit, they're allowed to streamline and 1560 01:27:47,200 --> 01:27:50,920 Speaker 3: engage in rifts and reorgs and elimination of departments without 1561 01:27:50,960 --> 01:27:53,320 Speaker 3: fear of litigation. Because most of the employers have the 1562 01:27:53,360 --> 01:27:55,800 Speaker 3: freedom to hire or fire at will. You don't have 1563 01:27:55,920 --> 01:27:58,519 Speaker 3: that in the federal government. They have rules, regulations, unions 1564 01:27:58,560 --> 01:28:01,920 Speaker 3: protecting the government employees ease, and there's so much red 1565 01:28:01,960 --> 01:28:04,920 Speaker 3: tape involving eliminating a position. It just gets bigger and bigger, 1566 01:28:04,920 --> 01:28:06,400 Speaker 3: and no one ever seems to get fired. 1567 01:28:08,080 --> 01:28:09,960 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, and I think you know, we see glimmers 1568 01:28:09,960 --> 01:28:12,240 Speaker 1: of this the early days of Trump forty seven. Right, 1569 01:28:12,360 --> 01:28:14,760 Speaker 1: just a few short months ago, there was a there 1570 01:28:14,840 --> 01:28:17,439 Speaker 1: was that that energy existed. I think in Washington, make 1571 01:28:17,479 --> 01:28:20,439 Speaker 1: some of those reforms. Now you're taking you know, you're 1572 01:28:20,479 --> 01:28:23,000 Speaker 1: going up against what is that that an immovable object 1573 01:28:23,080 --> 01:28:25,880 Speaker 1: and an unstoppable force, right, Yes, kind of colliding here, 1574 01:28:26,439 --> 01:28:29,439 Speaker 1: but you know it's it's legislation like this right that 1575 01:28:29,640 --> 01:28:32,439 Speaker 1: it has the opportunity of Congress has the courage to 1576 01:28:32,600 --> 01:28:36,599 Speaker 1: reassert its authority and right size the ship. It's possible, 1577 01:28:36,640 --> 01:28:40,519 Speaker 1: it's constitutional, and we appreciate Senator or Representative Comer for 1578 01:28:40,600 --> 01:28:42,800 Speaker 1: bringing this forward. And we're kind of beating that drum 1579 01:28:42,880 --> 01:28:45,320 Speaker 1: out there on on this as a key solution to 1580 01:28:45,400 --> 01:28:47,040 Speaker 1: fixing the bloat and wasting government. 1581 01:28:47,320 --> 01:28:49,679 Speaker 3: And there is no reason to be against the prevent 1582 01:28:49,800 --> 01:28:51,920 Speaker 3: Government Shutdown z Act. We wouldn't be in the middle 1583 01:28:51,920 --> 01:28:54,080 Speaker 3: of this stupidity if we had this, and this is 1584 01:28:54,120 --> 01:28:56,160 Speaker 3: one of the ones that I've talked about with Congressman Massy. 1585 01:28:56,240 --> 01:28:57,559 Speaker 3: Remind my listeners about this one. 1586 01:28:58,720 --> 01:29:00,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, so this is from Senator James Langford, and this 1587 01:29:00,960 --> 01:29:03,679 Speaker 1: actually has been around for a few sessions of Congress. 1588 01:29:03,840 --> 01:29:05,680 Speaker 1: It came about in twenty nineteen when we had the 1589 01:29:05,760 --> 01:29:11,040 Speaker 1: thirty five day shutdown. Shutdowns are a more recent in 1590 01:29:11,200 --> 01:29:15,479 Speaker 1: art in American history phenomenon. It actually came out of 1591 01:29:15,600 --> 01:29:19,760 Speaker 1: the nineteen seventies and an interpretation from the Carter administration 1592 01:29:20,520 --> 01:29:24,040 Speaker 1: on the function of government when it fails to pass 1593 01:29:24,080 --> 01:29:28,320 Speaker 1: a budget. It's created a crisis to crisis environment where 1594 01:29:29,200 --> 01:29:32,479 Speaker 1: like we're seeing right now, right wholly unrelated issues like 1595 01:29:32,720 --> 01:29:37,120 Speaker 1: covid era, health ACA subsidies are trying to be connected 1596 01:29:37,240 --> 01:29:40,599 Speaker 1: to the normal funding of our federal government at current levels, 1597 01:29:41,360 --> 01:29:45,080 Speaker 1: totally unconnected issues. We can prevent government shutdowns though, by 1598 01:29:45,360 --> 01:29:48,639 Speaker 1: automatically funding government at current levels until the budget process 1599 01:29:48,760 --> 01:29:52,640 Speaker 1: is done and putting some accountability measures like hey, Congressman, 1600 01:29:52,720 --> 01:29:55,240 Speaker 1: you can't use taxpayer dollars to get out of Washington 1601 01:29:55,760 --> 01:30:00,280 Speaker 1: go home, and you know, you know, peacock in front 1602 01:30:00,280 --> 01:30:03,040 Speaker 1: of your constituents. You got to stay in Washington until 1603 01:30:03,080 --> 01:30:05,320 Speaker 1: the job is done and you get the budget It's 1604 01:30:05,360 --> 01:30:07,479 Speaker 1: the most essential function of. 1605 01:30:07,560 --> 01:30:08,280 Speaker 2: Congress, Brian. 1606 01:30:08,360 --> 01:30:11,040 Speaker 1: We know this right is to fund our federal government 1607 01:30:11,120 --> 01:30:14,240 Speaker 1: and manage it to prevent government shutdown. Act would eliminate 1608 01:30:14,320 --> 01:30:17,920 Speaker 1: the crisis to crisis approach that exists right now when 1609 01:30:18,640 --> 01:30:21,320 Speaker 1: Congress government can shut down because Congress Build Act. 1610 01:30:21,479 --> 01:30:25,679 Speaker 3: All right, moving over the Comprehensive Congressional Budget Act. 1611 01:30:27,400 --> 01:30:30,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, So what this would do when we budget at home? 1612 01:30:30,800 --> 01:30:30,920 Speaker 8: Right? 1613 01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:34,439 Speaker 1: And I know Congress in Washington, DC aren't like budgeting 1614 01:30:34,479 --> 01:30:37,240 Speaker 1: at home, but you put everything together, right. You don't 1615 01:30:37,280 --> 01:30:40,280 Speaker 1: get to just say, hey, you know, my mortgage payment's 1616 01:30:40,360 --> 01:30:43,120 Speaker 1: over here, and you know date Night with the wife 1617 01:30:43,200 --> 01:30:45,920 Speaker 1: budget is over here. It's all one big budget, right, 1618 01:30:46,000 --> 01:30:48,200 Speaker 1: You get one paycheck and it all gets You got 1619 01:30:48,320 --> 01:30:51,160 Speaker 1: to budget it all out right now, Congress has shrunk 1620 01:30:52,640 --> 01:30:55,840 Speaker 1: discretionary spending is only about twenty five percent seventy five 1621 01:30:55,880 --> 01:30:59,280 Speaker 1: percent or more? Is this direct spending like Social Security, 1622 01:30:59,400 --> 01:31:02,160 Speaker 1: Medicaid care, these these programs that are sort of I 1623 01:31:02,200 --> 01:31:03,120 Speaker 1: would describe as. 1624 01:31:03,040 --> 01:31:04,960 Speaker 2: Being on autopilot for budgeting. 1625 01:31:05,320 --> 01:31:07,240 Speaker 1: We need to put the whole picture together and have 1626 01:31:07,320 --> 01:31:09,920 Speaker 1: a full picture of what our federal government is in 1627 01:31:10,040 --> 01:31:14,639 Speaker 1: taking and outgoing spending so that we're actually making decisions 1628 01:31:14,680 --> 01:31:19,040 Speaker 1: about the total ledger, not just that small percentage that 1629 01:31:19,240 --> 01:31:20,040 Speaker 1: is discretionary. 1630 01:31:20,080 --> 01:31:23,439 Speaker 2: We want Congress to be in control of the purse. 1631 01:31:23,720 --> 01:31:25,840 Speaker 2: And what this would is would require that. 1632 01:31:26,760 --> 01:31:30,760 Speaker 3: So they take in X, they've got mandatory spending, which 1633 01:31:30,840 --> 01:31:35,040 Speaker 3: is a pile that represents why so X minus Y 1634 01:31:35,400 --> 01:31:39,640 Speaker 3: is what's left over, and that has to be allocated 1635 01:31:39,720 --> 01:31:43,080 Speaker 3: responsively among what's left the non discretionary spending. So if 1636 01:31:43,080 --> 01:31:45,080 Speaker 3: you have a finite amount of cash left over in 1637 01:31:45,120 --> 01:31:47,599 Speaker 3: the pile, you limit your spending to what's left over. 1638 01:31:47,720 --> 01:31:49,960 Speaker 3: That's responsible budgeting, which means a lot of stuff is 1639 01:31:50,000 --> 01:31:51,439 Speaker 3: going to have to get cut because it isn't really 1640 01:31:51,479 --> 01:31:52,320 Speaker 3: truly a priority. 1641 01:31:54,200 --> 01:31:56,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you know, cut adjusted. 1642 01:31:57,240 --> 01:31:59,960 Speaker 1: You know, not that I would advocate or we would 1643 01:32:00,000 --> 01:32:02,200 Speaker 1: outgate for this, right, but if you you know, Congress 1644 01:32:02,240 --> 01:32:04,439 Speaker 1: deems this a priority. We're gonna have to raise taxes 1645 01:32:04,560 --> 01:32:06,320 Speaker 1: or some other form of revenue to get it done. 1646 01:32:06,640 --> 01:32:08,200 Speaker 1: But right now, we kind of look at these things 1647 01:32:08,280 --> 01:32:11,200 Speaker 1: in pieces and parcels. We want Congress to look at 1648 01:32:11,240 --> 01:32:13,439 Speaker 1: this as the whole picture, right Congress, Like you said, 1649 01:32:13,520 --> 01:32:16,920 Speaker 1: it takes an X, it's got to spend. Why what 1650 01:32:17,040 --> 01:32:19,040 Speaker 1: do you what do you what are the actual priorities, 1651 01:32:19,080 --> 01:32:21,519 Speaker 1: where can the where is the federal government best position 1652 01:32:21,720 --> 01:32:24,680 Speaker 1: to be impactful or have programs. But again, right now, 1653 01:32:24,760 --> 01:32:26,479 Speaker 1: as long as it's sort of sliced and diced and 1654 01:32:26,520 --> 01:32:30,280 Speaker 1: split up, more of it's on autopilot. When we actually 1655 01:32:30,320 --> 01:32:34,080 Speaker 1: want Congress to take a more active approach to governing, 1656 01:32:34,360 --> 01:32:35,519 Speaker 1: that's what we send them there to do. 1657 01:32:35,640 --> 01:32:37,080 Speaker 2: We elect them to go there and do that. A 1658 01:32:37,160 --> 01:32:40,000 Speaker 2: handful do we need all of Congress to do that? 1659 01:32:40,400 --> 01:32:42,599 Speaker 3: And the next one's come up quite frequently. Again, again 1660 01:32:42,640 --> 01:32:45,080 Speaker 3: I've talked with Congress from mass about the Rains Act. 1661 01:32:45,240 --> 01:32:46,639 Speaker 3: This is a really important one. 1662 01:32:48,120 --> 01:32:50,439 Speaker 1: Well, absolutely, once we get the and we can get 1663 01:32:50,720 --> 01:32:54,479 Speaker 1: government reorganized, we can get you know this this shutdown 1664 01:32:54,560 --> 01:32:57,200 Speaker 1: threat removed from the equation in Washington, d C. 1665 01:32:57,840 --> 01:33:00,400 Speaker 2: And you get the budgeting figured out. Y'all got to 1666 01:33:00,400 --> 01:33:02,320 Speaker 2: make sure the bloat doesn't come back, right. 1667 01:33:02,280 --> 01:33:04,600 Speaker 1: And each of these are important on their own, but 1668 01:33:04,680 --> 01:33:07,479 Speaker 1: the Rains Act in particular, you know, as we start, 1669 01:33:07,680 --> 01:33:11,240 Speaker 1: especially this Trump administration with Doe starts clearing out rules 1670 01:33:11,280 --> 01:33:13,680 Speaker 1: and regulations and streamlining permitting. 1671 01:33:13,720 --> 01:33:15,560 Speaker 2: If we can clear out the cobwebs. 1672 01:33:15,600 --> 01:33:17,439 Speaker 1: But what we need to do is by enacting the 1673 01:33:17,520 --> 01:33:21,360 Speaker 1: Rains Act keep that proliferation of rules and regulations from 1674 01:33:21,400 --> 01:33:24,400 Speaker 1: coming back, and it would the regulations from. 1675 01:33:24,320 --> 01:33:25,719 Speaker 2: The executive in need a scrutiny. 1676 01:33:26,120 --> 01:33:29,080 Speaker 1: Is good for both Republicans and Democrats because it'd keep 1677 01:33:29,439 --> 01:33:33,719 Speaker 1: these most egregious, economically harmful rules from going into effect 1678 01:33:34,120 --> 01:33:37,400 Speaker 1: without at least Congress taking another look at him and saying, yeah, 1679 01:33:37,479 --> 01:33:38,599 Speaker 1: this is what we intended. 1680 01:33:38,680 --> 01:33:41,960 Speaker 2: We believe this is important and it's right now. 1681 01:33:42,000 --> 01:33:45,280 Speaker 1: Got ninety two co sponsors, including Ohio's own Dave Taylor 1682 01:33:45,400 --> 01:33:46,439 Speaker 1: from southern Ohio. 1683 01:33:46,520 --> 01:33:48,479 Speaker 2: So we appreciate that cool from him. 1684 01:33:48,840 --> 01:33:51,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, and force the Democrats to defend what they want, 1685 01:33:51,920 --> 01:33:56,200 Speaker 3: which is egregiously intrusive and irresponsible regulations. Make them justify 1686 01:33:56,280 --> 01:33:59,160 Speaker 3: it now, at least the conversation will be air, will 1687 01:33:59,200 --> 01:34:02,000 Speaker 3: air all this out in the public. Now, finally we 1688 01:34:02,120 --> 01:34:04,840 Speaker 3: have the Midnight Rules Relief Act. I'm not familiar with 1689 01:34:04,880 --> 01:34:05,639 Speaker 3: this one, Donovan. 1690 01:34:06,760 --> 01:34:09,240 Speaker 1: So this is from Arizona Representative Andy Biggs, and this 1691 01:34:09,400 --> 01:34:11,600 Speaker 1: is an important piece in that how many times do 1692 01:34:11,680 --> 01:34:14,559 Speaker 1: we hear right, You get to December or January when 1693 01:34:14,600 --> 01:34:17,479 Speaker 1: a new administration is coming in and the outgoing lame 1694 01:34:17,560 --> 01:34:21,559 Speaker 1: duck president starts writing rules and auto Penning rules. Whatever 1695 01:34:21,560 --> 01:34:23,960 Speaker 1: they're doing, right, they're just going on a flurry of 1696 01:34:24,200 --> 01:34:26,640 Speaker 1: enacting the things that might have been politically unpopular in 1697 01:34:26,680 --> 01:34:29,400 Speaker 1: the early part of their tenure of their administration. But 1698 01:34:29,479 --> 01:34:30,639 Speaker 1: they jam that stuff through. 1699 01:34:31,000 --> 01:34:32,680 Speaker 2: We shouldn't be doing that stuff. What it would do 1700 01:34:32,840 --> 01:34:35,440 Speaker 2: is it would target some of these late term regulations. 1701 01:34:36,240 --> 01:34:38,360 Speaker 1: So anything sort of that you're the administration is trying 1702 01:34:38,360 --> 01:34:41,240 Speaker 1: to do in the final year on office, give that 1703 01:34:41,320 --> 01:34:42,240 Speaker 1: a little more scrutiny. 1704 01:34:42,400 --> 01:34:44,120 Speaker 2: Expand the Congressional Review Act to be. 1705 01:34:44,120 --> 01:34:46,960 Speaker 1: Able to bundle some of those reviews together, where right 1706 01:34:47,000 --> 01:34:49,080 Speaker 1: now I believe they have to do them sort of individually, 1707 01:34:49,120 --> 01:34:53,479 Speaker 1: with each individual rule, ultimately saving time and taxpay dollars. 1708 01:34:53,800 --> 01:34:55,880 Speaker 1: Some rules need to be implemented, right, But we want 1709 01:34:55,920 --> 01:34:58,760 Speaker 1: to reassert that congressional authority that if you're on the 1710 01:34:58,800 --> 01:35:02,720 Speaker 1: Biden administration and you're on your way out, you don't 1711 01:35:02,760 --> 01:35:05,519 Speaker 1: get to put all this stuff in, you know, Monday 1712 01:35:05,600 --> 01:35:08,600 Speaker 1: night and Tuesday morning. When the next president comes in, 1713 01:35:09,920 --> 01:35:12,080 Speaker 1: they've got to figure out what the damage is and 1714 01:35:12,280 --> 01:35:13,839 Speaker 1: what actually needs to be adjusted. 1715 01:35:14,040 --> 01:35:16,320 Speaker 3: I couldn't agree more with that. So, as we typically 1716 01:35:16,479 --> 01:35:19,639 Speaker 3: end on the call to action, I know the website 1717 01:35:19,800 --> 01:35:23,759 Speaker 3: is Makegovernmentwork dot com.

Interesting concept. Making 1748 01:36:38,000 --> 01:36:40,759 Speaker 3: government far more efficient, streamline it so it can actually 1749 01:36:40,800 --> 01:36:44,160 Speaker 3: do work efficiently, something we expect from the private sector 1750 01:36:44,240 --> 01:36:46,240 Speaker 3: and something we never get from the government. Why because 1751 01:36:46,280 --> 01:36:48,800 Speaker 3: we can't. We don't have a choice. There's no choice. 1752 01:36:50,640 --> 01:36:53,960 Speaker 3: You are forced to pay taxes, taxes that fund a government. 1753 01:36:54,000 --> 01:36:56,120 Speaker 3: The government is run by our bureaucrats who refuse to 1754 01:36:56,200 --> 01:36:58,080 Speaker 3: reduce the size and global of government, even though they 1755 01:36:58,120 --> 01:37:00,840 Speaker 3: spend far more than they take in. We don't have 1756 01:37:00,920 --> 01:37:03,000 Speaker 3: any choice on that, with the exception of voting for 1757 01:37:03,120 --> 01:37:07,280 Speaker 3: people who might consider efficiency and spending as a priority, 1758 01:37:08,640 --> 01:37:11,680 Speaker 3: you're limiting your selection on that. Kind of reminds me 1759 01:37:11,760 --> 01:37:14,320 Speaker 3: on some level. Public schools, you have no choice. They 1760 01:37:14,439 --> 01:37:17,080 Speaker 3: make you go there, even though your children are not 1761 01:37:17,280 --> 01:37:22,720 Speaker 3: getting educated to your expectations. They're inefficient, they're bloated, their 1762 01:37:22,760 --> 01:37:25,240 Speaker 3: salaries don't reflect the benefit that you're getting from any 1763 01:37:25,240 --> 01:37:26,760 Speaker 3: given teacher. I mean, you go on and on and on. 1764 01:37:26,920 --> 01:37:31,320 Speaker 3: You are stuck there. So we can change schools, and 1765 01:37:31,439 --> 01:37:34,400 Speaker 3: we can change the idea of giving you the choice 1766 01:37:34,439 --> 01:37:37,160 Speaker 3: of where to go, much to the threat to the teachers' 1767 01:37:37,240 --> 01:37:40,120 Speaker 3: unions and the public education system which is not delivering 1768 01:37:40,840 --> 01:37:44,280 Speaker 3: because if it was, people would choose to stay there. 1769 01:37:45,120 --> 01:37:46,600 Speaker 3: We don't have that option. When it comes to the 1770 01:37:46,640 --> 01:37:52,280 Speaker 3: federal government, we don't. You're stuck. So why wouldn't we 1771 01:37:52,400 --> 01:37:56,160 Speaker 3: demand better efficiency from our taxpayer dollars? Why do we 1772 01:37:56,479 --> 01:38:00,880 Speaker 3: abide all of this fraud was abuse when it's our 1773 01:38:01,040 --> 01:38:04,360 Speaker 3: money that's being abused and wasted, and it's our money 1774 01:38:04,439 --> 01:38:11,360 Speaker 3: that is allowing an inefficient government to continue unabatedy five 1775 01:38:11,400 --> 01:38:14,600 Speaker 3: K see the talk station. Congressman Thomas Massey is going 1776 01:38:14,680 --> 01:38:16,600 Speaker 3: to come up next, follow by Judge enital POULTONO.

We 1780 01:38:25,600 --> 01:38:27,720 Speaker 3: get to hear from Congressman Thomas Massey you followed by 1781 01:38:27,800 --> 01:38:30,559 Speaker 3: Judge Ennita Poulitano, who may very well be listening right now. 1782 01:38:30,640 --> 01:38:33,519 Speaker 3: Joe Strucker gave him the heads up that Congressman Massy, 1783 01:38:33,560 --> 01:38:35,639 Speaker 3: you be on the program right now. Welcome back, my friend. 1784 01:38:35,680 --> 01:38:37,200 Speaker 3: It's always a pleasure having you on the show. 1785 01:38:38,400 --> 01:38:39,000 Speaker 2: Great to be on. 1786 01:38:39,640 --> 01:38:43,479 Speaker 5: I'd rather be in DC, but Speaker Johnston doesn't want 1787 01:38:43,560 --> 01:38:44,240 Speaker 5: us to come back. 1788 01:38:44,800 --> 01:38:48,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I I you'd rather be in DC. You're not 1789 01:38:48,920 --> 01:38:51,200 Speaker 3: in d C, which you anticipated one of what was 1790 01:38:51,200 --> 01:38:53,920 Speaker 3: going to be one of my questions about this shutdown. Yes, 1791 01:38:53,960 --> 01:38:55,960 Speaker 3: we're in the middle of a shutdown. Know the Democrats 1792 01:38:56,000 --> 01:38:58,800 Speaker 3: will not agree to continuing to operate at the levels 1793 01:38:58,800 --> 01:39:01,719 Speaker 3: that they created last year. It's the Biden level spending 1794 01:39:01,760 --> 01:39:04,160 Speaker 3: that the Republicans passed over your objection, and I understand 1795 01:39:04,200 --> 01:39:09,200 Speaker 3: that with a continuing resolution, they can't complain about cuts 1796 01:39:09,240 --> 01:39:10,720 Speaker 3: the government anything. They're just trying to keep it open 1797 01:39:10,880 --> 01:39:14,360 Speaker 3: and keep us hostage. Although none of my listening audience 1798 01:39:14,439 --> 01:39:17,720 Speaker 3: feels hostage. Congressman Massy the oldest hostage. So they can 1799 01:39:18,160 --> 01:39:22,800 Speaker 3: continue covid Era premium supplements under Obamacare, I mean COVID's over. 1800 01:39:23,000 --> 01:39:26,599 Speaker 3: They put the deadline of December of twenty twenty five 1801 01:39:26,680 --> 01:39:31,360 Speaker 3: in the legislation extending these benefits. They knew this was coming. Obviously, 1802 01:39:31,479 --> 01:39:34,519 Speaker 3: this is a pretext shutdown for them to continue along 1803 01:39:34,600 --> 01:39:37,720 Speaker 3: the path of bringing us basically medicaid for all under 1804 01:39:37,760 --> 01:39:42,240 Speaker 3: the Obamacare umbrella. Am I on the right path? Congressman Massy, Yes, 1805 01:39:43,600 --> 01:39:45,400 Speaker 3: let me back up before we unpack all of that. 1806 01:39:46,040 --> 01:39:48,240 Speaker 5: So not only are we in a shutdown, we're in 1807 01:39:48,280 --> 01:39:53,320 Speaker 5: a recess. And this is interesting because usually during a shutdown, 1808 01:39:53,439 --> 01:39:54,599 Speaker 5: Congress is in set. 1809 01:39:54,800 --> 01:39:55,160 Speaker 2: There you go. 1810 01:39:55,600 --> 01:40:00,519 Speaker 5: But the Speaker, Johnson has decided politically it's better for 1811 01:40:00,680 --> 01:40:03,400 Speaker 5: us not to be in town now. He says. The 1812 01:40:03,560 --> 01:40:07,040 Speaker 5: reason is he doesn't want the Democrats doing dilatory things 1813 01:40:07,080 --> 01:40:10,600 Speaker 5: on the floor, maybe making motions or whatnot. But the 1814 01:40:10,720 --> 01:40:13,839 Speaker 5: reality is, if he were to call us back today, 1815 01:40:14,800 --> 01:40:17,160 Speaker 5: he would have to swear in the one hundred and 1816 01:40:17,200 --> 01:40:22,000 Speaker 5: eighteenth signature on my Epstein petition and we could force 1817 01:40:22,040 --> 01:40:24,760 Speaker 5: a vote on releasing the Epstein file. 1818 01:40:24,880 --> 01:40:26,040 Speaker 3: Well, is that what this is about? 1819 01:40:27,640 --> 01:40:30,280 Speaker 5: This is I'm calling it. Okay, it may be the 1820 01:40:30,320 --> 01:40:33,160 Speaker 5: Schumer shut down, but it's the Epstein recess. 1821 01:40:33,320 --> 01:40:33,880 Speaker 6: Is what it is. 1822 01:40:36,920 --> 01:40:39,240 Speaker 3: But wait to say, Okay, we're gonna get dive into 1823 01:40:39,560 --> 01:40:40,120 Speaker 3: more of the details. 1824 01:40:40,160 --> 01:40:40,479 Speaker 2: On this one. 1825 01:40:41,080 --> 01:40:43,840 Speaker 3: But my question to you is going to be and 1826 01:40:44,040 --> 01:40:46,360 Speaker 3: I just was putting the recess reality in the back 1827 01:40:46,360 --> 01:40:49,000 Speaker 3: of my mind. If you the government shut down, that 1828 01:40:49,040 --> 01:40:51,920 Speaker 3: doesn't stop you or the Senate from working on the 1829 01:40:51,960 --> 01:40:54,560 Speaker 3: twelve appropriations bills, which is the reason you're doing the 1830 01:40:54,640 --> 01:40:57,120 Speaker 3: CR to keep the government open until the middle of November, 1831 01:40:57,320 --> 01:40:59,160 Speaker 3: because the way we're doing it right now, it's going 1832 01:40:59,240 --> 01:41:01,920 Speaker 3: to be shut down up until the deadline that's in 1833 01:41:02,040 --> 01:41:02,559 Speaker 3: the CR. 1834 01:41:04,680 --> 01:41:07,479 Speaker 5: You can't open the government back down if Congress shut 1835 01:41:07,520 --> 01:41:10,439 Speaker 5: it down and Congress is not in session. So it's 1836 01:41:10,880 --> 01:41:15,240 Speaker 5: I mean, I understand, I understand his excuse, but I 1837 01:41:15,320 --> 01:41:18,640 Speaker 5: think it's it's just an excuse, and I think we 1838 01:41:18,760 --> 01:41:22,760 Speaker 5: should be in Washington, DC in the event that the 1839 01:41:22,840 --> 01:41:26,679 Speaker 5: Senate does come to some agreement, then the House could 1840 01:41:26,720 --> 01:41:30,880 Speaker 5: act immediately. But he's trying to basically jam the Senate 1841 01:41:31,040 --> 01:41:34,439 Speaker 5: because the House already passed the CR and then the 1842 01:41:34,520 --> 01:41:37,320 Speaker 5: Senate's sitting there and they're just having new votes on 1843 01:41:37,479 --> 01:41:40,320 Speaker 5: that same CR to try to get more Democrats to fold. 1844 01:41:41,160 --> 01:41:44,120 Speaker 5: People ask me when will the shut down end, and 1845 01:41:44,280 --> 01:41:46,880 Speaker 5: I will, and I will tell you it ends the 1846 01:41:46,960 --> 01:41:51,280 Speaker 5: way it always ends. It ends when one side's polling 1847 01:41:51,600 --> 01:41:55,879 Speaker 5: shows that they're taking a butt whipping in public opinion 1848 01:41:56,160 --> 01:42:00,400 Speaker 5: and then they come to the table and give in. 1849 01:42:01,400 --> 01:42:06,120 Speaker 5: So right now, neither side has a clear indication that 1850 01:42:06,200 --> 01:42:10,120 Speaker 5: they're losing the messaging war. So we're going to be 1851 01:42:10,240 --> 01:42:13,840 Speaker 5: in a shutdown for a while. I believe the next 1852 01:42:14,439 --> 01:42:17,880 Speaker 5: big milestone is the middle of this month, which is 1853 01:42:17,960 --> 01:42:21,479 Speaker 5: when government employees they get paid five monthly, twice a month. 1854 01:42:23,040 --> 01:42:26,080 Speaker 5: That is going to be the big show down there now, 1855 01:42:26,200 --> 01:42:31,040 Speaker 5: most not well a majority of government workers are probably Democrats. 1856 01:42:31,120 --> 01:42:33,600 Speaker 5: I know a lot of good Republicans who work for 1857 01:42:33,680 --> 01:42:36,800 Speaker 5: the government, but I would say a majority of them, 1858 01:42:36,920 --> 01:42:40,400 Speaker 5: especially in DC, are Democrats. So the interesting thing is 1859 01:42:40,439 --> 01:42:43,920 Speaker 5: going to be when they don't get their next paycheck. Now, 1860 01:42:44,000 --> 01:42:46,439 Speaker 5: the reality is, I don't mean to sound callous or 1861 01:42:46,520 --> 01:42:52,599 Speaker 5: to diminish this, but the credit unions will give anybody 1862 01:42:52,640 --> 01:42:54,960 Speaker 5: who's a member of the credit union at advance on 1863 01:42:55,080 --> 01:42:58,439 Speaker 5: their paycheck because they know that I'm talking about the 1864 01:42:58,520 --> 01:43:01,760 Speaker 5: Federal Credit union right Because they know they're going to 1865 01:43:01,800 --> 01:43:05,519 Speaker 5: get paid. There's never the employees who are whether they're 1866 01:43:05,640 --> 01:43:09,760 Speaker 5: essential or non essential, they will all get paid when 1867 01:43:09,840 --> 01:43:12,240 Speaker 5: the shutdown is over. That's the way it's been with 1868 01:43:12,400 --> 01:43:16,840 Speaker 5: every shutdown, and knowing that the federal credit unions will 1869 01:43:17,280 --> 01:43:23,120 Speaker 5: give the paycheck to any federal employee advance it without interest. 1870 01:43:22,960 --> 01:43:23,800 Speaker 3: It's a safe risk. 1871 01:43:23,920 --> 01:43:27,000 Speaker 5: But yeah, but it still makes it's still going to 1872 01:43:27,040 --> 01:43:29,720 Speaker 5: be and not everybody's in a credit union, and it's 1873 01:43:29,720 --> 01:43:33,200 Speaker 5: still going to make a talking point on the fifteenth 1874 01:43:33,600 --> 01:43:36,679 Speaker 5: this month when they don't get paid. But in the meantime, 1875 01:43:37,200 --> 01:43:40,600 Speaker 5: let me remind everybody what is on the table. The 1876 01:43:40,960 --> 01:43:46,679 Speaker 5: Republicans thought they could avoid a shutdown by completely surrendering. Okay, 1877 01:43:46,720 --> 01:43:51,040 Speaker 5: if they just passed Joe Biden's budget, that's exactly penny 1878 01:43:51,120 --> 01:43:54,360 Speaker 5: for penny. It's Joe Biden's budget, line for line. That's 1879 01:43:54,400 --> 01:43:56,960 Speaker 5: what the House representatives put on the floor. I didn't 1880 01:43:57,040 --> 01:43:59,920 Speaker 5: vote for it, and one other Republican did not vote 1881 01:44:00,040 --> 01:44:02,200 Speaker 5: for it, but it's still passed the House, it went 1882 01:44:02,280 --> 01:44:06,400 Speaker 5: to the Senate, and ironically, you have people Republicans who 1883 01:44:06,439 --> 01:44:10,760 Speaker 5: didn't vote for it when it was under Joe, when 1884 01:44:10,840 --> 01:44:14,120 Speaker 5: Joe Biden was president, but now that Donald Trump is president, 1885 01:44:14,160 --> 01:44:17,599 Speaker 5: they're voting for Joe Biden's budget. It's I'm literally one 1886 01:44:17,640 --> 01:44:21,800 Speaker 5: of the only members of Congress who hasn't flipped their 1887 01:44:21,880 --> 01:44:24,080 Speaker 5: vote on this. It needs to be the other vote 1888 01:44:24,200 --> 01:44:24,719 Speaker 5: right round. 1889 01:44:25,439 --> 01:44:27,880 Speaker 3: Because you're a you're a you're a fiscal hawk and 1890 01:44:28,040 --> 01:44:30,400 Speaker 3: of course a constitutional purists. And there's a reasons why 1891 01:44:30,400 --> 01:44:33,120 Speaker 3: you wouldn't want to extend Joe Biden's level funding. And 1892 01:44:33,200 --> 01:44:36,840 Speaker 3: I understand that all day long. But from a strategy standpoint, 1893 01:44:36,920 --> 01:44:39,280 Speaker 3: ignoring the side that you and I are both on, 1894 01:44:40,120 --> 01:44:43,280 Speaker 3: it does make sense to keep that Biden level because 1895 01:44:43,320 --> 01:44:46,400 Speaker 3: that satisfied the Democrats last year. And that's a wonderful 1896 01:44:46,439 --> 01:44:49,040 Speaker 3: talking point when you're trying to counter there oh my god, 1897 01:44:49,120 --> 01:44:51,479 Speaker 3: we're all going to die narrative that goes along with this, 1898 01:44:51,760 --> 01:44:55,840 Speaker 3: with this shutdown in the Republican cr And and let 1899 01:44:55,920 --> 01:44:56,360 Speaker 3: me tell. 1900 01:44:56,240 --> 01:45:00,919 Speaker 5: You something, just to be completely intellectually honest, Joe Biden's 1901 01:45:00,960 --> 01:45:04,960 Speaker 5: budget because of Joe Biden's inflation, If you do the 1902 01:45:05,040 --> 01:45:08,000 Speaker 5: same thing dollar for dollar, it's going to be about 1903 01:45:08,080 --> 01:45:12,519 Speaker 5: five percent less than it was last year because of inflation. 1904 01:45:13,360 --> 01:45:16,240 Speaker 5: But and so you might say, well, then, Congressman Matthew, 1905 01:45:16,240 --> 01:45:18,599 Speaker 5: why wouldn't you be inclined to vote for Joe Biden's 1906 01:45:18,600 --> 01:45:22,320 Speaker 5: spending levels since inflation will reduce this and solve the 1907 01:45:22,400 --> 01:45:26,559 Speaker 5: budget problem for you, Well, there's two reasons. One, spending 1908 01:45:26,680 --> 01:45:30,519 Speaker 5: is policy. It's it's not that we've spent one point 1909 01:45:30,600 --> 01:45:32,679 Speaker 5: five trillion under Joe Biden and we're going to spend 1910 01:45:32,760 --> 01:45:36,400 Speaker 5: one point five trillion under Trump. It's that every line 1911 01:45:36,479 --> 01:45:39,639 Speaker 5: item in there is exactly the same, including the things 1912 01:45:39,680 --> 01:45:42,439 Speaker 5: that we cut out in DOGE. Now, the DOGE cuts 1913 01:45:42,479 --> 01:45:46,200 Speaker 5: were only temporary, So what happens if Joe Biden's budget 1914 01:45:46,240 --> 01:45:49,160 Speaker 5: passes again. All of the stuff we cut out using 1915 01:45:49,240 --> 01:45:51,080 Speaker 5: DOGE goes back into the budget. 1916 01:45:52,240 --> 01:45:53,200 Speaker 6: So and then the. 1917 01:45:53,280 --> 01:45:56,240 Speaker 5: DEI stuff, that's all that's all going to be in there. 1918 01:45:56,800 --> 01:45:59,840 Speaker 5: So it's number one. Spending is policy when you do 1919 01:45:59,920 --> 01:46:03,559 Speaker 5: it line by line. If you said, well, Trump will 1920 01:46:03,600 --> 01:46:07,120 Speaker 5: spend exactly the same amount, diminished by inflation, but we'll 1921 01:46:07,280 --> 01:46:10,400 Speaker 5: move it around to different priorities, I might be able 1922 01:46:10,479 --> 01:46:14,360 Speaker 5: to get behind that. Now here's the other reason I'm 1923 01:46:14,520 --> 01:46:18,320 Speaker 5: not for Joe Biden's budget minus the five percent inflation 1924 01:46:18,960 --> 01:46:22,479 Speaker 5: because in the Big Beautiful Bill, which was supposed to 1925 01:46:22,600 --> 01:46:26,719 Speaker 5: only deal with mandatory spending, they added about four hundred 1926 01:46:26,760 --> 01:46:31,760 Speaker 5: billion dollars of discretionary spending. So they put appropriations in 1927 01:46:31,960 --> 01:46:36,920 Speaker 5: the Big Bill a few months ago on DOJ that's 1928 01:46:37,000 --> 01:46:40,439 Speaker 5: Department of Justice, Department of Homeland Security, and Department of Defense. 1929 01:46:41,120 --> 01:46:45,600 Speaker 5: So they've the Republicans have already plussed up spending, so 1930 01:46:45,760 --> 01:46:49,200 Speaker 5: that even if we passed Joe Biden's budget, which is 1931 01:46:49,240 --> 01:46:52,960 Speaker 5: what Mike Johnson wants to do and John Dune, even 1932 01:46:53,040 --> 01:46:55,439 Speaker 5: if we passed Joe Biden's budget, and even if we 1933 01:46:55,520 --> 01:46:59,679 Speaker 5: can account for inflation diminishing those dollar values, they've already 1934 01:46:59,720 --> 01:47:02,120 Speaker 5: plus stuff the budget a few months ago. And that's 1935 01:47:02,280 --> 01:47:04,519 Speaker 5: really what they won't tell you on the news. That's 1936 01:47:04,560 --> 01:47:06,679 Speaker 5: why the Democrats are mad they didn't get a plus 1937 01:47:06,800 --> 01:47:09,920 Speaker 5: up in their line items. And the usual deal wink wink, 1938 01:47:10,040 --> 01:47:14,040 Speaker 5: nod nod in Washington, DC is Republicans increase their spending 1939 01:47:14,240 --> 01:47:17,040 Speaker 5: and Democrats increase their spending, and that's how you get 1940 01:47:17,040 --> 01:47:20,400 Speaker 5: to sixty votes in the Senate. So that's why they're 1941 01:47:20,439 --> 01:47:22,720 Speaker 5: not voting for it. And then they're making up these 1942 01:47:22,800 --> 01:47:27,400 Speaker 5: other medical things. Those aren't fights. If the stuff expires 1943 01:47:27,439 --> 01:47:29,679 Speaker 5: in December, then that's when you have the fight in December. 1944 01:47:29,720 --> 01:47:35,040 Speaker 5: They're also trying to undo the fraud fixes that we 1945 01:47:35,560 --> 01:47:38,519 Speaker 5: put in the big beautiful bill to keep illegals from 1946 01:47:38,560 --> 01:47:41,880 Speaker 5: getting Medicaid and whatnot. The Democrats are trying to take 1947 01:47:41,960 --> 01:47:44,200 Speaker 5: that back out. But that's not the fight that you're 1948 01:47:44,240 --> 01:47:47,519 Speaker 5: supposed to have on these appropriations bills. These should be 1949 01:47:47,640 --> 01:47:50,280 Speaker 5: only the twelve spending bills, and you're right, we should 1950 01:47:50,360 --> 01:47:52,240 Speaker 5: be back in Washington working on them. 1951 01:47:52,479 --> 01:47:55,040 Speaker 3: And where they'll have another opportunity to do whatever the 1952 01:47:55,080 --> 01:47:58,040 Speaker 3: hell they want by way of policy or extending supplements 1953 01:47:58,120 --> 01:48:00,640 Speaker 3: for people who otherwise don't need it. Let's pausele bring 1954 01:48:00,680 --> 01:48:03,080 Speaker 3: Congressman Thomas Massey back at eight fifteen, right now fifty 1955 01:48:03,120 --> 01:48:07,639 Speaker 3: five ker CD talk Ryan Thomas and Congressman Thomas Massey, 1956 01:48:09,880 --> 01:48:12,360 Speaker 3: Congress A. Massy, you suggested, and I think at the 1957 01:48:12,400 --> 01:48:14,840 Speaker 3: foregone conclusion you are ultimately going to get your vote 1958 01:48:14,920 --> 01:48:17,760 Speaker 3: on the Epstein file release. And I always like to 1959 01:48:17,840 --> 01:48:20,559 Speaker 3: use this opportunity as a time to express my dismay 1960 01:48:21,160 --> 01:48:22,880 Speaker 3: that Trump did a one to eighty. I mean, he 1961 01:48:23,000 --> 01:48:25,240 Speaker 3: campaigned on releasing the stuff. A lot of Republicans were 1962 01:48:25,280 --> 01:48:29,360 Speaker 3: demanding it during the Biden administration. Democrats didn't bother pushing 1963 01:48:29,400 --> 01:48:31,600 Speaker 3: to release the documents when they had the opportunity to 1964 01:48:31,680 --> 01:48:33,920 Speaker 3: do so, but now they're clamoring to do it. I 1965 01:48:34,000 --> 01:48:36,800 Speaker 3: don't know what changed. Honestly, no one brings it up 1966 01:48:36,840 --> 01:48:40,479 Speaker 3: anymore except you this morning, for example. But once the 1967 01:48:40,600 --> 01:48:44,000 Speaker 3: government shutdown is over and people return to work and 1968 01:48:44,320 --> 01:48:47,040 Speaker 3: the recess is over, there's going to be a vote, right. 1969 01:48:48,320 --> 01:48:50,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, And the government shutdown doesn't have to be over. 1970 01:48:51,080 --> 01:48:53,880 Speaker 5: This is an Act of Congress that doesn't require funding. 1971 01:48:54,520 --> 01:48:57,240 Speaker 5: We can go back into session, and as soon as 1972 01:48:57,320 --> 01:49:02,600 Speaker 5: we do, there's a congresswoman named Grihalva who won her 1973 01:49:02,680 --> 01:49:06,080 Speaker 5: election two weeks ago who hasn't been sworn in. This 1974 01:49:06,240 --> 01:49:11,760 Speaker 5: is also unprecedented, speious things, but we're not in. But 1975 01:49:11,880 --> 01:49:14,280 Speaker 5: the reality is we have these pro forma sessions every 1976 01:49:14,360 --> 01:49:17,519 Speaker 5: four days to keep the House and the Senate from 1977 01:49:17,560 --> 01:49:21,120 Speaker 5: going into recess. Ironically, to keep President Trump from making 1978 01:49:21,200 --> 01:49:24,560 Speaker 5: recess appointments. I don't agree with it, but that's what 1979 01:49:24,680 --> 01:49:27,000 Speaker 5: they do. Every four days they meet, and they could 1980 01:49:27,040 --> 01:49:30,080 Speaker 5: swear this congresswoman in on one of these recess appointments, 1981 01:49:30,120 --> 01:49:32,760 Speaker 5: because they did that with two Republicans already this year. 1982 01:49:33,280 --> 01:49:35,720 Speaker 5: But the speaker's not doing it. So as soon as 1983 01:49:35,760 --> 01:49:39,320 Speaker 5: we get back. Now, this is what I'm telling you 1984 01:49:39,439 --> 01:49:43,920 Speaker 5: is predicated on an assumption that none of my three 1985 01:49:44,120 --> 01:49:48,160 Speaker 5: Republican co signers can be flipped by the White House, 1986 01:49:48,240 --> 01:49:51,519 Speaker 5: because the White House is trying desperately to get either 1987 01:49:51,680 --> 01:49:55,080 Speaker 5: Marjorie Taylor Green, Nancy Mace, or Lauren Bobert to take 1988 01:49:55,280 --> 01:50:00,360 Speaker 5: their names off of my petition. But who did they 1989 01:50:00,360 --> 01:50:03,160 Speaker 5: succeed in getting one of those women to take their 1990 01:50:03,240 --> 01:50:06,920 Speaker 5: names off the petition. There's another congressperson who will be 1991 01:50:07,160 --> 01:50:11,320 Speaker 5: elected in November who will be signing the discharge petition. 1992 01:50:12,240 --> 01:50:15,240 Speaker 5: So I don't know why they keep dragging this out, 1993 01:50:15,400 --> 01:50:17,880 Speaker 5: whether they just keep fighting to the bitter end. We 1994 01:50:17,920 --> 01:50:20,400 Speaker 5: should have the vote. They can try to stop me 1995 01:50:20,520 --> 01:50:23,679 Speaker 5: in the Senate, but they don't. Here's the thing, Briant, 1996 01:50:24,080 --> 01:50:26,240 Speaker 5: they don't even want to have the vote. 1997 01:50:29,200 --> 01:50:31,640 Speaker 3: Well, lots of red flags waved over that one. Just 1998 01:50:31,760 --> 01:50:35,479 Speaker 3: I mean, that just fuels the conspiracy theory narrative out there. 1999 01:50:35,880 --> 01:50:37,760 Speaker 3: And who are we protecting on this? 2000 01:50:39,040 --> 01:50:46,000 Speaker 5: Good? Good question, good question. So the victims' lawyers have 2001 01:50:46,439 --> 01:50:49,120 Speaker 5: indicated to me they are at least twenty men who 2002 01:50:49,400 --> 01:50:52,560 Speaker 5: Epstein trafficked women too, that they gave the names to 2003 01:50:52,640 --> 01:50:56,240 Speaker 5: the FBI, and the FBI recorded them, memorialized that in 2004 01:50:56,280 --> 01:50:59,400 Speaker 5: the three h two forms. So we know that the 2005 01:50:59,520 --> 01:51:02,960 Speaker 5: FBI has at least twenty names. I think six of 2006 01:51:03,080 --> 01:51:06,840 Speaker 5: them are billionaires. One of them is a movie producer, 2007 01:51:07,040 --> 01:51:09,920 Speaker 5: one is a former politician, one is a current person 2008 01:51:10,040 --> 01:51:14,400 Speaker 5: in government, one's a CEO. Like I don't know their names, 2009 01:51:14,439 --> 01:51:17,400 Speaker 5: but these are the indication that the victims lawyers have 2010 01:51:17,520 --> 01:51:20,880 Speaker 5: given to me. And the reason they don't put out 2011 01:51:20,920 --> 01:51:24,480 Speaker 5: the names is they would be sued into homelessness for defamation. 2012 01:51:24,840 --> 01:51:27,400 Speaker 5: The government doesn't pursue any of this if they can't, 2013 01:51:28,120 --> 01:51:30,439 Speaker 5: you get any of the evidence out there, and the 2014 01:51:30,520 --> 01:51:32,680 Speaker 5: government's in possession of it. So the government needs to 2015 01:51:32,720 --> 01:51:36,320 Speaker 5: release the names. But here's what I know. I know 2016 01:51:36,520 --> 01:51:40,040 Speaker 5: the president is trying to protect some top Republican donors 2017 01:51:40,560 --> 01:51:44,760 Speaker 5: and friends of his in West Palm Beach, and I 2018 01:51:44,880 --> 01:51:46,519 Speaker 5: will stand by that and go. 2019 01:51:46,600 --> 01:51:47,760 Speaker 6: To my grave on that. 2020 01:51:48,560 --> 01:51:50,560 Speaker 3: Well, that would explain it, wouldn't it. I mean that 2021 01:51:51,080 --> 01:51:53,920 Speaker 3: it's not right, but it certainly would make sense as 2022 01:51:53,920 --> 01:51:55,439 Speaker 3: to how he didn't why he did a one to eighty. 2023 01:51:56,840 --> 01:52:00,920 Speaker 5: And then the other question is, well, it's if the 2024 01:52:01,080 --> 01:52:04,240 Speaker 5: president's donors stand to lose in this white and Joe 2025 01:52:04,280 --> 01:52:08,720 Speaker 5: Biden and the Democrats pursue this when they were in power. Well, 2026 01:52:08,800 --> 01:52:12,519 Speaker 5: it's because once you get to the billionaire class, a 2027 01:52:12,600 --> 01:52:15,160 Speaker 5: lot of these billionaires are just members of the UNI party. 2028 01:52:15,280 --> 01:52:18,400 Speaker 5: They give to whichever parties in power. Who's ever having 2029 01:52:18,479 --> 01:52:21,479 Speaker 5: the best parties? How do you get to the Lincoln 2030 01:52:21,720 --> 01:52:25,519 Speaker 5: bedroom in the White House. So they give to both parties, 2031 01:52:25,680 --> 01:52:29,920 Speaker 5: and I think you're going to see men implicated who 2032 01:52:30,000 --> 01:52:33,960 Speaker 5: are friends and donors of both parties in this. And 2033 01:52:34,080 --> 01:52:39,160 Speaker 5: then also finally, this is the conspiracy theory, but there's 2034 01:52:39,200 --> 01:52:42,000 Speaker 5: a lot of weight to it. I introduced five documents 2035 01:52:42,040 --> 01:52:44,240 Speaker 5: into the record in front of cash Battel a few 2036 01:52:44,320 --> 01:52:48,240 Speaker 5: weeks ago in our judiciary hearing that indicate that Jeffrey 2037 01:52:48,280 --> 01:52:55,639 Speaker 5: Epstein was working with National Intelligence MASAD and the CIA. 2038 01:52:56,240 --> 01:52:58,760 Speaker 5: And I asked, I even asked cash Battel, have you 2039 01:52:58,840 --> 01:53:04,080 Speaker 5: seen the CIA five on Jeffrey Epstein? He has not so, 2040 01:53:04,920 --> 01:53:09,200 Speaker 5: and there is one. Now, why wouldn't he go look 2041 01:53:09,240 --> 01:53:09,400 Speaker 5: at that? 2042 01:53:09,640 --> 01:53:10,240 Speaker 3: Good questions? 2043 01:53:10,280 --> 01:53:13,200 Speaker 5: Well, you know he's allowed to go see that. You 2044 01:53:13,320 --> 01:53:15,520 Speaker 5: can't keep the director of the FBI because. 2045 01:53:15,320 --> 01:53:16,800 Speaker 3: He looks at it, He's going to have to answer 2046 01:53:16,840 --> 01:53:19,800 Speaker 3: your questions. He can just play ignorance. I don't want 2047 01:53:19,840 --> 01:53:22,120 Speaker 3: to see it because then I'll have to Then I'll say, yeah, 2048 01:53:22,160 --> 01:53:24,320 Speaker 3: I do know what's in there. Yeah that makes sense. 2049 01:53:25,280 --> 01:53:27,120 Speaker 5: I asked Cash Btelly, have you seen the three h 2050 01:53:27,160 --> 01:53:29,519 Speaker 5: two forms that the FBI filled out when the interviewed 2051 01:53:29,520 --> 01:53:32,680 Speaker 5: the victims. He's not seen them. No, he's trusting. His 2052 01:53:32,920 --> 01:53:35,360 Speaker 5: answer to me was he trusts that the people working 2053 01:53:35,400 --> 01:53:38,200 Speaker 5: at the FBI would have given him those names if 2054 01:53:38,240 --> 01:53:42,400 Speaker 5: they were credible evidence. And then my question is, do 2055 01:53:42,479 --> 01:53:48,680 Speaker 5: you not think the victims are credible? Like let's the 2056 01:53:49,960 --> 01:53:52,679 Speaker 5: Speaker of the House is trying to say that he's 2057 01:53:52,760 --> 01:53:57,040 Speaker 5: trying to protect the victims, but my legislation would redact 2058 01:53:57,120 --> 01:53:59,480 Speaker 5: their names in anything that could be used to identify 2059 01:53:59,560 --> 01:54:02,360 Speaker 5: them out of the files, and the victims themselves support 2060 01:54:02,479 --> 01:54:03,160 Speaker 5: my legislation. 2061 01:54:03,320 --> 01:54:06,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the big point right there. Yeah, that he's 2062 01:54:06,240 --> 01:54:11,559 Speaker 3: making an argument on their behalf that they don't want asserted. Wow, well, 2063 01:54:11,600 --> 01:54:14,360 Speaker 3: welcome to government. No kid in Congress, Amassi, Let me 2064 01:54:14,400 --> 01:54:17,920 Speaker 3: ask you a simple, straightforward question.

It's like, you want to be optimistic, but 2117 01:57:16,640 --> 01:57:19,160 Speaker 3: they give us no reason whatsoever to be optimistic. So 2118 01:57:19,360 --> 01:57:21,560 Speaker 3: maybe there is an element in there that's optimism. 2119 01:57:21,840 --> 01:57:26,880 Speaker 7: I feel sorry for Joe Burrow. He's such a talented kid, 2120 01:57:26,960 --> 01:57:29,800 Speaker 7: but he just keeps getting hurt.

But you know, we'll see how 2126 01:57:46,360 --> 01:57:49,600 Speaker 3: things play out over the long term, all right, And 2127 01:57:49,720 --> 01:57:51,960 Speaker 3: I love your column. I don't know if you heard 2128 01:57:51,960 --> 01:57:54,240 Speaker 3: me ask Congress from Massey about the Office of Legal 2129 01:57:54,320 --> 01:57:56,920 Speaker 3: Counsel and Department of Justice giving Donald Trump the keys 2130 01:57:57,000 --> 01:57:59,800 Speaker 3: to the American military when we face what he believes 2131 01:57:59,840 --> 01:58:03,839 Speaker 3: to be and emin and threat. Congress Amassy just basically 2132 01:58:03,880 --> 01:58:06,880 Speaker 3: said that that office is really designed to uphold literally 2133 01:58:06,960 --> 01:58:09,760 Speaker 3: anything the White House wants to do, regardless of administration. 2134 01:58:09,880 --> 01:58:11,800 Speaker 3: But I want to pause on that for a moment 2135 01:58:11,840 --> 01:58:15,000 Speaker 3: and ask you about what I thought was really I 2136 01:58:15,600 --> 01:58:19,760 Speaker 3: don't know orwellian the fact that that Donald or rather 2137 01:58:20,600 --> 01:58:23,640 Speaker 3: all these elected officials, seven senators and one member of 2138 01:58:23,640 --> 01:58:27,560 Speaker 3: the House of Representative, in this Arctic frost investigation launched 2139 01:58:27,560 --> 01:58:30,879 Speaker 3: by the FBI in connection with the January sixth riots, 2140 01:58:31,720 --> 01:58:36,600 Speaker 3: they got their phone records. We've talked about this kind 2141 01:58:36,640 --> 01:58:36,960 Speaker 3: of they have. 2142 01:58:37,560 --> 01:58:41,200 Speaker 7: They have nobody to blame but themselves, right, because the statute, 2143 01:58:41,320 --> 01:58:45,440 Speaker 7: the Electronic Privacy so called Electronic Privacy Act, you know, 2144 01:58:45,520 --> 01:58:50,600 Speaker 7: the name really is often the misnumber, permits FBI agents 2145 01:58:50,680 --> 01:58:54,520 Speaker 7: to get metadata. So it's who you called, when you called, 2146 01:58:55,000 --> 01:58:58,480 Speaker 7: and how long you spoke, it's not the actual conversation. 2147 01:58:59,360 --> 01:59:02,080 Speaker 7: I've been con this as a violation of the Fourth 2148 01:59:02,120 --> 01:59:05,000 Speaker 7: Amendment since it was first inactive. This is enacted by 2149 01:59:05,120 --> 01:59:08,840 Speaker 7: the Congress. They probably never imagined that it would happen 2150 01:59:09,240 --> 01:59:11,560 Speaker 7: to them. That doesn't make it moral and it doesn't 2151 01:59:11,600 --> 01:59:15,120 Speaker 7: make it constitutional, but it does make it legal. And 2152 01:59:15,240 --> 01:59:19,600 Speaker 7: to make it even worse, Brian, this does not require 2153 01:59:20,440 --> 01:59:23,880 Speaker 7: a search warrant signed by a judge. It can be 2154 01:59:24,000 --> 01:59:27,360 Speaker 7: done by one of two ways. A grand jury subpoena 2155 01:59:28,160 --> 01:59:30,040 Speaker 7: and a good prosecutor can get a grand jury to 2156 01:59:30,080 --> 01:59:34,680 Speaker 7: subpoena anything, or a national security letter CHIE. What is 2157 01:59:34,800 --> 01:59:40,160 Speaker 7: a National Security letter Patrade Act. That's where one FBI 2158 01:59:40,360 --> 01:59:45,879 Speaker 7: agent authorizes another FBI agent to issue a search warrant 2159 01:59:46,160 --> 01:59:52,360 Speaker 7: on stored records at your lawyer's office, your doctor's office, 2160 01:59:52,600 --> 01:59:59,360 Speaker 7: your telecom, your computer Serverson that I don't blame is 2161 02:00:00,200 --> 02:00:03,080 Speaker 7: and I frequently disagree with him. As Senator Holly, he 2162 02:00:03,240 --> 02:00:07,080 Speaker 7: was outraged he was not in the Senate when this 2163 02:00:07,360 --> 02:00:10,879 Speaker 7: legislation was enacted, but almost everybody else on that committee 2164 02:00:10,960 --> 02:00:15,000 Speaker 7: yesterday was in both parties. In fact, the chair that's 2165 02:00:15,040 --> 02:00:17,480 Speaker 7: been in the center for thirty years was around when 2166 02:00:17,480 --> 02:00:19,640 Speaker 7: the original legislation was enacted. 2167 02:00:21,280 --> 02:00:23,120 Speaker 3: I'm glad you framed it that way. I had a 2168 02:00:23,200 --> 02:00:25,520 Speaker 3: student listener call and point out the exact same thing. 2169 02:00:25,640 --> 02:00:28,160 Speaker 3: Republicans or anybody who voted for that, has nobody blamed 2170 02:00:28,240 --> 02:00:30,480 Speaker 3: for themselves for the fact that it's being used against 2171 02:00:30,520 --> 02:00:33,720 Speaker 3: them in this particular case, question of whose ox is 2172 02:00:33,800 --> 02:00:35,080 Speaker 3: being gord, I suppose. 2173 02:00:35,640 --> 02:00:38,440 Speaker 7: Right nobody's ox should be gored. They should follow the 2174 02:00:38,520 --> 02:00:43,160 Speaker 7: Fourth Amendment. If Jack Smith had probable cause to believe 2175 02:00:43,240 --> 02:00:45,960 Speaker 7: that there was evidence of a crime and a conversation 2176 02:00:46,240 --> 02:00:48,880 Speaker 7: between I'm just going to use this hypothetically. I don't 2177 02:00:48,920 --> 02:00:53,160 Speaker 7: know if the conversation happened Senator Josh Holly and President 2178 02:00:53,240 --> 02:00:55,960 Speaker 7: Trump on January fifth or January sixth. He goes to 2179 02:00:56,080 --> 02:00:59,480 Speaker 7: a federal judge, presents the evidence, and if the judge agrees, 2180 02:00:59,520 --> 02:01:03,320 Speaker 7: he signed a search warrant. Short of that, not neither 2181 02:01:03,480 --> 02:01:07,000 Speaker 7: Jack Smith nor any prosecutor, under any circumstances has the 2182 02:01:07,120 --> 02:01:11,680 Speaker 7: right to surveil communications. But the Congress has butchered that 2183 02:01:11,920 --> 02:01:16,280 Speaker 7: in a series of legislation, going back to legislative acts 2184 02:01:16,320 --> 02:01:18,560 Speaker 7: going back to before nine to eleven. I believe it 2185 02:01:18,720 --> 02:01:23,600 Speaker 7: or not, what left wing pinko creep signed the first 2186 02:01:23,760 --> 02:01:27,680 Speaker 7: of these laws allowing the government to get your. 2187 02:01:27,600 --> 02:01:31,480 Speaker 3: Bank records George Bush right, Ronald Rayel. 2188 02:01:32,800 --> 02:01:36,800 Speaker 7: Nineteen eighty six. So this stuff goes way back. It 2189 02:01:37,040 --> 02:01:40,920 Speaker 7: was of course accelerated after nine to eleven. After nine 2190 02:01:40,920 --> 02:01:43,200 Speaker 7: to eleven, you have the Patriot Act and a swell 2191 02:01:43,240 --> 02:01:46,400 Speaker 7: of amendments to it, every single one of which makes 2192 02:01:46,480 --> 02:01:50,960 Speaker 7: surveillance without a search warrant easier. But the original damage 2193 02:01:51,080 --> 02:01:53,480 Speaker 7: was done in nineteen eighty six under the so called 2194 02:01:53,760 --> 02:02:02,240 Speaker 7: Bank Privacy Act, which gave the FEDS the right to 2195 02:02:02,360 --> 02:02:06,440 Speaker 7: look at banking information when you deposited more than ten 2196 02:02:06,520 --> 02:02:10,800 Speaker 7: thousand dollars in one deposits. That's what opened up these floodgates. 2197 02:02:11,440 --> 02:02:14,760 Speaker 3: And when you frame it that way, I just scratched 2198 02:02:14,800 --> 02:02:17,200 Speaker 3: my head and wonder, why, what possible? I mean, well, 2199 02:02:17,240 --> 02:02:21,000 Speaker 3: what cartels are using in drug dealers and utilizing so. 2200 02:02:21,280 --> 02:02:23,960 Speaker 7: In those days. In those days, we were at the 2201 02:02:24,040 --> 02:02:28,960 Speaker 7: tail end of the drug wars, which had destroyed the 2202 02:02:29,040 --> 02:02:33,400 Speaker 7: Fourth Amendment. And fear of drug dealers is what animated 2203 02:02:33,480 --> 02:02:36,280 Speaker 7: Congress Post nine to eleven. Of course, it is fear 2204 02:02:36,400 --> 02:02:42,480 Speaker 7: of terrorism, and what is it now? Whatever Donald Trump says, 2205 02:02:42,520 --> 02:02:47,520 Speaker 7: it is fear of immigrants, fear of narco terrorists, fear 2206 02:02:47,560 --> 02:02:49,840 Speaker 7: of whatever you want to be afraid of. In terms 2207 02:02:49,840 --> 02:02:52,520 Speaker 7: of what Congressman Massy said, I had an internet problem 2208 02:02:52,640 --> 02:02:55,600 Speaker 7: on my previous gig and I was not able to 2209 02:02:55,680 --> 02:02:57,640 Speaker 7: jump on. Of course, I agree with everything he says, 2210 02:02:57,680 --> 02:03:01,919 Speaker 7: but the Office of Legal Counsel was once the DOJ's lawyers. 2211 02:03:02,240 --> 02:03:05,360 Speaker 7: You'll know the names of two people who in their 2212 02:03:05,560 --> 02:03:08,520 Speaker 7: younger days ran the Office of Legal Counsel. One of 2213 02:03:08,560 --> 02:03:12,600 Speaker 7: them is named William Rehnquist and the other is named 2214 02:03:12,720 --> 02:03:18,160 Speaker 7: Antonin Scalia. These were truly the brightest stars in the DOJ. 2215 02:03:19,200 --> 02:03:22,880 Speaker 7: They told the DOJ the law as they understood that 2216 02:03:23,000 --> 02:03:27,200 Speaker 7: they were impervious to politics no longer today. I am 2217 02:03:27,440 --> 02:03:30,560 Speaker 7: dying to see this so called secret memorandum that she has. 2218 02:03:30,960 --> 02:03:35,960 Speaker 7: How can analysis of a public law possibly be secret? 2219 02:03:36,200 --> 02:03:39,080 Speaker 3: I know I was gonna ask you about that. He's 2220 02:03:39,120 --> 02:03:41,800 Speaker 3: not gonna reveal the memo to the general public, even 2221 02:03:41,800 --> 02:03:45,720 Speaker 3: though CNN is widely reported on it. But emminent threat 2222 02:03:47,080 --> 02:03:50,240 Speaker 3: isn't that a rather subjective measure when it comes to 2223 02:03:50,280 --> 02:03:52,880 Speaker 3: determined whether they're going to use military force. And I 2224 02:03:53,000 --> 02:03:54,800 Speaker 3: go back to the boats he's blown up. I don't 2225 02:03:54,920 --> 02:03:56,960 Speaker 3: like drugs. I don't want him in in the United States. 2226 02:03:57,040 --> 02:03:58,880 Speaker 3: But you know that's what we have a coastguard for 2227 02:03:59,040 --> 02:04:01,360 Speaker 3: if they get close to us, that we can pick 2228 02:04:01,400 --> 02:04:02,200 Speaker 3: them up in process. 2229 02:04:02,400 --> 02:04:07,480 Speaker 7: How could four guys in a speedboat fifteen hundred miles 2230 02:04:07,520 --> 02:04:10,960 Speaker 7: from the US unarmed or maybe with just small arms, 2231 02:04:11,080 --> 02:04:14,800 Speaker 7: you know, handguns, possibly be considered an eminent threat to 2232 02:04:14,880 --> 02:04:18,640 Speaker 7: the national security of the United States. The answer is 2233 02:04:19,040 --> 02:04:22,200 Speaker 7: they can't. And even if they were an eminent threat, 2234 02:04:22,320 --> 02:04:26,680 Speaker 7: it would make much more sense to arrest them, search 2235 02:04:26,840 --> 02:04:30,840 Speaker 7: the boat if there's drugs there, seize the assets, and 2236 02:04:31,120 --> 02:04:35,880 Speaker 7: then engage in plean negotiations with one of them to 2237 02:04:36,200 --> 02:04:39,600 Speaker 7: find out where the drugs came from and who their 2238 02:04:39,680 --> 02:04:43,680 Speaker 7: sources are. There are ways to accomplish these goals without 2239 02:04:44,280 --> 02:04:45,160 Speaker 7: murdering people. 2240 02:04:45,640 --> 02:04:48,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, no question about it. Go about the normal course 2241 02:04:48,360 --> 02:04:50,440 Speaker 3: of business. Pick them up. They obviously can have committed 2242 02:04:50,480 --> 02:04:52,960 Speaker 3: a crime. Look, it's a drug, vote drug, it's a 2243 02:04:53,000 --> 02:04:56,000 Speaker 3: boat full of drugs. That's against law. You're in our 2244 02:04:56,120 --> 02:04:58,360 Speaker 3: territory of waters. You're going to be subject to prosecution. 2245 02:04:58,560 --> 02:05:02,040 Speaker 3: I die anyhow. It's just troubling from my perspective, and 2246 02:05:02,640 --> 02:05:04,440 Speaker 3: I worry. You know a lot of my listeners. I 2247 02:05:04,520 --> 02:05:06,080 Speaker 3: think I hate drug dealers. I don't care that they 2248 02:05:06,160 --> 02:05:08,360 Speaker 3: blew out. I don't care if it violates constitution. Well 2249 02:05:08,480 --> 02:05:11,000 Speaker 3: I do, because somebody else is going to be in 2250 02:05:11,080 --> 02:05:14,760 Speaker 3: office someday. Yeah, and they may decide that some organization 2251 02:05:14,880 --> 02:05:17,680 Speaker 3: that we don't believe necessarily represents an eminent THREATSCA starts 2252 02:05:17,680 --> 02:05:21,000 Speaker 3: getting bombed because of their political ideology or their geopolitical 2253 02:05:21,040 --> 02:05:24,160 Speaker 3: ideology or whatever have you. It's so low a standard. 2254 02:05:24,200 --> 02:05:27,720 Speaker 3: And we're talking about America's military here at minimum. And 2255 02:05:27,840 --> 02:05:29,480 Speaker 3: you and I, I think agree on this point. We 2256 02:05:29,560 --> 02:05:33,000 Speaker 3: don't believe authorizations for use of military force quite cut 2257 02:05:33,080 --> 02:05:36,880 Speaker 3: the constitutional declaration of war standard. But at least get 2258 02:05:36,960 --> 02:05:40,320 Speaker 3: Congress to agree with you and say, yes, you're right, 2259 02:05:40,800 --> 02:05:44,000 Speaker 3: we stamp of approval, authorize you some military force because 2260 02:05:44,040 --> 02:05:45,760 Speaker 3: we believe this to be an eminent threat. We can 2261 02:05:45,840 --> 02:05:48,280 Speaker 3: hash that out right right. 2262 02:05:49,240 --> 02:05:54,000 Speaker 7: It's very, very dangerous. I got a little alarmist and 2263 02:05:54,160 --> 02:05:57,520 Speaker 7: hyperbolic at the end of my column saying, who are 2264 02:05:57,560 --> 02:05:59,960 Speaker 7: they going to shoot next? Drug dealers in Chicago? 2265 02:06:00,120 --> 02:06:00,160 Speaker 5: Go? 2266 02:06:00,360 --> 02:06:05,720 Speaker 7: But their logic for killing people before they commit crime 2267 02:06:06,560 --> 02:06:10,200 Speaker 7: is the same logic we could out outside the territory 2268 02:06:10,240 --> 02:06:13,240 Speaker 7: of waders of the United States. Is the same logic 2269 02:06:13,400 --> 02:06:17,360 Speaker 7: that they could apply to people inside the United States. 2270 02:06:17,680 --> 02:06:19,720 Speaker 7: By the way, how can it be a federal crime 2271 02:06:19,880 --> 02:06:24,160 Speaker 7: even if they were carrying drugs from Caracas to some 2272 02:06:24,560 --> 02:06:28,480 Speaker 7: island off the coast of Caracas. What business of the 2273 02:06:28,560 --> 02:06:33,840 Speaker 7: federal government is that does federal law apply everywhere on 2274 02:06:34,080 --> 02:06:35,040 Speaker 7: the planet. 2275 02:06:36,240 --> 02:06:39,040 Speaker 3: Don't tell them that they may get that idea. You're Honor, 2276 02:06:39,040 --> 02:06:41,560 Speaker 3: and we'll start bombing targets all over the world without 2277 02:06:41,640 --> 02:06:45,880 Speaker 3: with reckless abandon judg Jenna Politano, Logic. Reason is always 2278 02:06:45,960 --> 02:06:47,360 Speaker 3: on the plate when we talk with you, and I 2279 02:06:47,400 --> 02:06:49,560 Speaker 3: appreciate the willingness to come on the program every week 2280 02:06:49,600 --> 02:06:51,000 Speaker 3: and have these great conversations. 2281 02:06:51,120 --> 02:06:55,000 Speaker 7: Right Bryan, It's my favorite morning, and I love being 2282 02:06:55,080 --> 02:06:58,040 Speaker 7: able to chat with you no matter what the Yankees 2283 02:06:58,160 --> 02:07:00,920 Speaker 7: or the Reds or the Bengals. To even mention this 2284 02:07:01,720 --> 02:07:05,800 Speaker 7: the football team New York Giants are doing, it. 2285 02:07:05,960 --> 02:07:07,640 Speaker 3: Was a strain for you to get those words out 2286 02:07:07,720 --> 02:07:11,120 Speaker 3: real quick. Judging Freedom is his weather or is podcast? 2287 02:07:11,160 --> 02:07:12,280 Speaker 3: W are you gonna be speaking with today? 2288 02:07:12,320 --> 02:07:12,720 Speaker 2: You're Honor? 2289 02:07:12,960 --> 02:07:15,720 Speaker 7: About eleven this morning Eastern I have the great Colonel 2290 02:07:15,760 --> 02:07:18,600 Speaker 7: Douglas McGregor.

I started 2322 02:08:56,360 --> 02:09:00,720 Speaker 3: out the Morning show talking about this it we have 2323 02:09:00,840 --> 02:09:03,160 Speaker 3: a choice here, flipped the natty, says Corey Bowman. Corey 2324 02:09:03,200 --> 02:09:05,240 Speaker 3: Bowman running from Mary. He's a pretty darn good guy, 2325 02:09:05,240 --> 02:09:06,640 Speaker 3: and I've talked to him a whole bunch of times 2326 02:09:06,680 --> 02:09:08,600 Speaker 3: on the Morning Show, as you know if you listen regularly, 2327 02:09:09,680 --> 02:09:14,680 Speaker 3: and not once, not once, has he ever tried to 2328 02:09:14,680 --> 02:09:16,000 Speaker 3: hang his hat on the fact that he is the 2329 02:09:16,800 --> 02:09:19,480 Speaker 3: half brother of JD Vans, vice president of JD Vance's 2330 02:09:19,520 --> 02:09:22,760 Speaker 3: half brother, which is constantly, constantly the drum beat from 2331 02:09:22,760 --> 02:09:26,800 Speaker 3: the media. He's got, really, I mean, other than a 2332 02:09:26,880 --> 02:09:30,560 Speaker 3: partial bloodline connection. He's running to serve the city of 2333 02:09:30,600 --> 02:09:33,960 Speaker 3: Cincinnati residence and he's very clear on that all residents. 2334 02:09:34,880 --> 02:09:39,800 Speaker 3: He's not springing from particularly right wing perspective. He just 2335 02:09:39,920 --> 02:09:42,440 Speaker 3: realizes that we have priorities in the city and keeping 2336 02:09:42,600 --> 02:09:47,879 Speaker 3: roads paved and cracking down on crime, seeing that criminals 2337 02:09:47,920 --> 02:09:50,400 Speaker 3: are held accountable to create a better environment for you 2338 02:09:50,560 --> 02:09:54,760 Speaker 3: and me. Cutting out all the green New Deal woke 2339 02:09:54,880 --> 02:09:57,240 Speaker 3: stuff that we can't afford, even if it was it 2340 02:09:57,320 --> 02:10:03,600 Speaker 3: was going to do something. And to anybody out there 2341 02:10:03,640 --> 02:10:07,200 Speaker 3: that thinks that city taxpayer money should go toward green projects, 2342 02:10:07,280 --> 02:10:10,280 Speaker 3: ask yourself, what the hell can the city of Cincinnati 2343 02:10:10,400 --> 02:10:14,160 Speaker 3: alone accomplish doing this. They're not doing it Warren County. 2344 02:10:14,160 --> 02:10:15,880 Speaker 3: They're not doing in Butler County. They're not doing it 2345 02:10:15,880 --> 02:10:17,840 Speaker 3: in Claremont County. They're not doing it in Newport, they're 2346 02:10:17,880 --> 02:10:21,360 Speaker 3: not doing it in Covington. I could go on, probably 2347 02:10:21,480 --> 02:10:24,160 Speaker 3: because maybe they don't have the financial resources to accomplish 2348 02:10:24,200 --> 02:10:29,160 Speaker 3: some carbon neutrality exercise or green energy production exercise, but 2349 02:10:29,280 --> 02:10:31,800 Speaker 3: because maybe they practically say, gee, well, we're all breathing 2350 02:10:31,880 --> 02:10:34,400 Speaker 3: the same air. It's one big globe they are circulating. 2351 02:10:34,480 --> 02:10:37,000 Speaker 3: And everything the entire country has done in the name 2352 02:10:37,040 --> 02:10:40,600 Speaker 3: of carbon or cutting back carbon dioxide aka plant food 2353 02:10:41,120 --> 02:10:43,680 Speaker 3: hasn't done a wit to reduce the amount of carbon 2354 02:10:43,680 --> 02:10:46,240 Speaker 3: dioxide in the environment. Thanks to China and India and 2355 02:10:46,600 --> 02:10:52,640 Speaker 3: Turkey and other very large producers of greenhouse gases, which 2356 02:10:53,120 --> 02:10:56,360 Speaker 3: I personally believe. Carbon dioxide is a plutant to naturally 2357 02:10:56,400 --> 02:10:58,839 Speaker 3: occurring phenomenon. The plants need to live, so it occurs 2358 02:10:58,920 --> 02:11:02,720 Speaker 3: in the nature natural environment. It's critical for the functioning 2359 02:11:02,960 --> 02:11:08,240 Speaker 3: of the planet. So what in the hell is the 2360 02:11:08,280 --> 02:11:11,320 Speaker 3: city getting involved with something that, even if they achieve 2361 02:11:11,440 --> 02:11:14,080 Speaker 3: their long term objectives and they could wave a flag 2362 02:11:14,160 --> 02:11:17,040 Speaker 3: saying we're carbon neutral in Cincinnati, what's it going to 2363 02:11:17,120 --> 02:11:21,560 Speaker 3: do for everybody in the world. Nothing, so long winded 2364 02:11:21,560 --> 02:11:24,360 Speaker 3: way of saying that's I think that's backcrap in sanity 2365 02:11:24,400 --> 02:11:26,560 Speaker 3: from the left. Do we want to allocate that as 2366 02:11:26,640 --> 02:11:30,800 Speaker 3: a priority? I think that Corey Bowman would not, Well, 2367 02:11:30,840 --> 02:11:32,960 Speaker 3: wait till after we get the roads fixed, Wait till 2368 02:11:32,960 --> 02:11:35,000 Speaker 3: after we get these big projects over with, Wait till 2369 02:11:35,000 --> 02:11:39,800 Speaker 3: after we get the crime situation ironed out. Wait till 2370 02:11:39,800 --> 02:11:43,360 Speaker 3: after we bring more investments by lowering the regulatory burden 2371 02:11:43,440 --> 02:11:46,200 Speaker 3: and getting things built and things accomplished. I mean, he's 2372 02:11:46,240 --> 02:11:48,080 Speaker 3: hit the nail on the head of all the problems 2373 02:11:48,160 --> 02:11:53,040 Speaker 3: the city has created, most notably created intentionally, I suppose, 2374 02:11:54,640 --> 02:11:56,440 Speaker 3: making it more difficult for us to live, thrive, and 2375 02:11:56,480 --> 02:11:58,240 Speaker 3: survive in the city. So what has that got to 2376 02:11:58,280 --> 02:12:00,840 Speaker 3: do with Jade Evans literally nothing head line from Scott 2377 02:12:00,880 --> 02:12:04,680 Speaker 3: Warman in the Inquire in Cincinnati. Jd Vance's half brother 2378 02:12:04,800 --> 02:12:08,920 Speaker 3: hopes for a political earthquake in mayoral race. That's the headline. 2379 02:12:08,960 --> 02:12:13,800 Speaker 3: Didn't we put Corey Bowman in the headline this time around? 2380 02:12:13,880 --> 02:12:16,600 Speaker 3: The Republican Kennedy mentions wins through Presidia since Nat Mayor 2381 02:12:16,720 --> 02:12:20,600 Speaker 3: happens to be Vice President jd Vance's half brother. And 2382 02:12:20,760 --> 02:12:24,480 Speaker 3: then two paragraphs into the article he finally mentions Corey 2383 02:12:24,520 --> 02:12:31,879 Speaker 3: Bowman and not the only time he mentions jd Vance's 2384 02:12:31,920 --> 02:12:36,120 Speaker 3: half brother. I think he's brought up three or four 2385 02:12:36,160 --> 02:12:38,280 Speaker 3: times in the article. And of course the article concludes 2386 02:12:38,320 --> 02:12:40,240 Speaker 3: making the point again to the extent you didn't get 2387 02:12:40,280 --> 02:12:42,680 Speaker 3: it from the headline or in the body of reporting. 2388 02:12:43,360 --> 02:12:47,440 Speaker 3: There it is at the close. But it's Bowman's family 2389 02:12:47,560 --> 02:12:50,080 Speaker 3: that has drawn much of the attention. His half brother 2390 02:12:50,760 --> 02:12:56,200 Speaker 3: is Vice President jd Vance. That sentence, well, the beginning 2391 02:12:56,280 --> 02:12:58,440 Speaker 3: of my favorite hour radio we get to hear from 2392 02:12:58,480 --> 02:13:03,560 Speaker 3: Congress Omon by judging Paula Tis right now, jus tractor 2393 02:13:03,600 --> 02:13:06,280 Speaker 3: gave him the heads up that conclude you'd be on 2394 02:13:06,320 --> 02:13:08,440 Speaker 3: the program right now. Welcome back, my friends. Do you 2395 02:13:08,560 --> 02:13:10,440 Speaker 3: think that's been the dominant subject matter. 2396 02:13:10,520 --> 02:13:13,160 Speaker 5: Scott, Great, To be honest, I'd rather be in DC, 2397 02:13:13,400 --> 02:13:16,640 Speaker 5: but Speaker Johnston doesn't want us to come back. 2398 02:13:17,200 --> 02:13:21,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I I you'd rather be in DC. You're not 2399 02:13:21,320 --> 02:13:23,600 Speaker 3: in d C, which you anticipated one of what was 2400 02:13:23,600 --> 02:13:26,320 Speaker 3: going to be one of my questions about this shutdown. Yes, 2401 02:13:26,360 --> 02:13:28,360 Speaker 3: we're in the middle of a shutdown. No, the Democrats 2402 02:13:28,400 --> 02:13:31,200 Speaker 3: will not agree to continuing to operate at the levels 2403 02:13:31,200 --> 02:13:34,120 Speaker 3: that they created last year. It's the Biden level spending 2404 02:13:34,160 --> 02:13:36,560 Speaker 3: that the Republicans passed over your objection, and I understand 2405 02:13:36,600 --> 02:13:41,360 Speaker 3: that with the continuing resolution. Uh, they can't complain about 2406 02:13:41,360 --> 02:13:42,920 Speaker 3: cuts the government anything. They're just trying to keep it 2407 02:13:42,960 --> 02:13:46,360 Speaker 3: open and keep us hostage, although none of my listening 2408 02:13:46,400 --> 02:13:49,960 Speaker 3: audience feels hostage. Congressman Massy the oldest hostage. So they 2409 02:13:50,000 --> 02:13:54,360 Speaker 3: can continue COVID era premium supplements under Obamacare, I mean 2410 02:13:54,480 --> 02:13:58,440 Speaker 3: COVID's over. They put the deadline of December of twenty 2411 02:13:58,520 --> 02:14:01,600 Speaker 3: twenty five in the legislation extending these benefits. They knew 2412 02:14:01,680 --> 02:14:05,440 Speaker 3: this was coming, obviously, this is a pretext shutdown for 2413 02:14:05,560 --> 02:14:08,520 Speaker 3: them to continue along the path of bringing us basically 2414 02:14:08,680 --> 02:14:11,600 Speaker 3: medicaid for all under the Obamacare umbrella. Am I on 2415 02:14:11,680 --> 02:14:13,000 Speaker 3: the right path Congress from messy? 2416 02:14:14,440 --> 02:14:14,640 Speaker 2: Yes? 2417 02:14:16,000 --> 02:14:18,480 Speaker 5: Let me back up before we unpack all of that. So, 2418 02:14:18,960 --> 02:14:21,280 Speaker 5: not only are we in a shutdown, we're in a recess. 2419 02:14:22,320 --> 02:14:26,280 Speaker 5: And this is interesting because usually during a shutdown, Congress 2420 02:14:26,400 --> 02:14:27,120 Speaker 5: is in session. 2421 02:14:27,200 --> 02:14:27,560 Speaker 3: There you go. 2422 02:14:28,000 --> 02:14:32,920 Speaker 5: But the Speaker, Johnson has decided politically it's better for 2423 02:14:33,080 --> 02:14:35,800 Speaker 5: us not to be in town now. He says, the 2424 02:14:35,960 --> 02:14:39,440 Speaker 5: reason is he doesn't want the Democrats doing dilatory things 2425 02:14:39,520 --> 02:14:43,000 Speaker 5: on the floor, maybe making motions or whatnot. But the 2426 02:14:43,120 --> 02:14:46,240 Speaker 5: reality is, if he were to call us back today, 2427 02:14:47,200 --> 02:14:49,560 Speaker 5: he would have to swear in the two hundred and 2428 02:14:49,600 --> 02:14:54,400 Speaker 5: eighteenth signature on my Epstein petition and we could force 2429 02:14:54,480 --> 02:14:57,120 Speaker 5: a vote on releasing the Epstein file. 2430 02:14:57,280 --> 02:14:57,640 Speaker 2: What is that? 2431 02:14:57,720 --> 02:14:58,440 Speaker 3: What this is about? 2432 02:15:00,120 --> 02:15:02,680 Speaker 5: This is I'm calling it. Okay, it may be the 2433 02:15:02,720 --> 02:15:05,880 Speaker 5: Schumer shut down, but it's the Epstein recess, is what 2434 02:15:06,040 --> 02:15:06,280 Speaker 5: it is. 2435 02:15:09,320 --> 02:15:11,640 Speaker 3: But wait to say. Okay, we're gonna get dive into 2436 02:15:11,960 --> 02:15:15,120 Speaker 3: more of the details on this one. But my question 2437 02:15:15,280 --> 02:15:17,160 Speaker 3: to you is going to be, and I just was 2438 02:15:17,240 --> 02:15:19,200 Speaker 3: putting the recess reality in the back of my mind. 2439 02:15:19,560 --> 02:15:22,040 Speaker 3: If you if the government shut down, that doesn't stop 2440 02:15:22,120 --> 02:15:25,720 Speaker 3: you or the Senate from working on the twelve appropriations bills, 2441 02:15:25,760 --> 02:15:27,960 Speaker 3: which is the reason you're doing the CR to keep 2442 02:15:28,000 --> 02:15:30,040 Speaker 3: the government open until the middle of November, because the 2443 02:15:30,080 --> 02:15:31,760 Speaker 3: way we're doing it right now, it's going to be 2444 02:15:31,800 --> 02:15:34,960 Speaker 3: shut down up until the deadline that's in the CR. 2445 02:15:37,080 --> 02:15:39,880 Speaker 5: You can't open the government back down if Congress shut 2446 02:15:39,920 --> 02:15:42,840 Speaker 5: it down, and Congress is not in session. So it's 2447 02:15:43,280 --> 02:15:47,640 Speaker 5: I mean, I understand, I understand his excuse, but I 2448 02:15:47,720 --> 02:15:51,040 Speaker 5: think it's it's just an excuse, and I think we 2449 02:15:51,160 --> 02:15:54,960 Speaker 5: should be in Washington, d C. In the event that 2450 02:15:55,120 --> 02:15:58,840 Speaker 5: the Senate does come to some agreement, then the House 2451 02:15:58,880 --> 02:16:02,880 Speaker 5: could act immediately. But he's trying to basically jam the 2452 02:16:02,960 --> 02:16:06,760 Speaker 5: Senate because the House already passed the CR, and then 2453 02:16:06,800 --> 02:16:09,600 Speaker 5: the Senate's sitting there and they're just having new votes 2454 02:16:09,680 --> 02:16:12,320 Speaker 5: on that same CR to try to get more Democrats 2455 02:16:12,360 --> 02:16:15,880 Speaker 5: to fold. People ask me when will the shutdown end, 2456 02:16:16,480 --> 02:16:19,640 Speaker 5: and I will tell you it ends the way it 2457 02:16:19,720 --> 02:16:24,400 Speaker 5: always ends. It ends when one side's polling shows that 2458 02:16:24,520 --> 02:16:28,880 Speaker 5: they're taking a butt whipping in public opinion and then 2459 02:16:28,960 --> 02:16:30,760 Speaker 5: they come to the table and. 2460 02:16:32,440 --> 02:16:32,800 Speaker 3: Give in. 2461 02:16:33,800 --> 02:16:38,520 Speaker 5: So right now, neither side has a clear indication that 2462 02:16:38,600 --> 02:16:42,520 Speaker 5: they're losing. The messaging war, So we're going to be 2463 02:16:42,600 --> 02:16:46,240 Speaker 5: in a shutdown for a while. I believe the next 2464 02:16:46,840 --> 02:16:50,320 Speaker 5: big milestone is the middle of this month, which is 2465 02:16:50,360 --> 02:16:53,879 Speaker 5: when government employees that get paid five monthly twice a month. 2466 02:16:55,480 --> 02:16:58,480 Speaker 5: That is going to be the big show down there now, 2467 02:16:58,600 --> 02:17:03,439 Speaker 5: most not well a majority of government workers are probably Democrats. 2468 02:17:03,520 --> 02:17:06,000 Speaker 5: I know a lot of good Republicans who work for 2469 02:17:06,080 --> 02:17:09,200 Speaker 5: the government, but I would say a majority of them, 2470 02:17:09,320 --> 02:17:12,800 Speaker 5: especially in DC, are Democrats. So the interesting thing is 2471 02:17:12,840 --> 02:17:16,320 Speaker 5: going to be what they don't get their next paycheck. Now, 2472 02:17:16,400 --> 02:17:18,840 Speaker 5: the reality is, I don't mean to sound callous or 2473 02:17:18,920 --> 02:17:25,000 Speaker 5: to diminish this, but the credit unions will give anybody 2474 02:17:25,040 --> 02:17:27,400 Speaker 5: who's a member of the credit union at advance on 2475 02:17:27,480 --> 02:17:30,840 Speaker 5: their paycheck because they know that I'm talking about the 2476 02:17:30,920 --> 02:17:34,160 Speaker 5: Federal credit union right, because they know they're going to 2477 02:17:34,200 --> 02:17:37,920 Speaker 5: get paid. There's never the employees who are whether they're 2478 02:17:38,040 --> 02:17:42,160 Speaker 5: essential or non essential, they will all get paid when 2479 02:17:42,240 --> 02:17:44,640 Speaker 5: the shutdown is over. That's the way it's been with 2480 02:17:44,800 --> 02:17:49,240 Speaker 5: every shutdown. And knowing that the federal credit unions will 2481 02:17:49,720 --> 02:17:55,519 Speaker 5: give the paycheck to any federal employee advance it without interest. 2482 02:17:55,360 --> 02:17:56,200 Speaker 3: It's a safe risk. 2483 02:17:56,320 --> 02:17:59,400 Speaker 5: But yeah, but it still makes it's still going to 2484 02:17:59,440 --> 02:18:02,119 Speaker 5: be and not everybody's in a credit union, and it's 2485 02:18:02,120 --> 02:18:05,600 Speaker 5: still going to make a talking point on the fifteenth 2486 02:18:06,000 --> 02:18:09,080 Speaker 5: this month when they don't get paid. But in the meantime, 2487 02:18:09,600 --> 02:18:13,000 Speaker 5: let me remind everybody what is on the table. The 2488 02:18:13,360 --> 02:18:19,120 Speaker 5: Republicans thought they could avoid a shutdown by completely surrendering. Okay, 2489 02:18:19,280 --> 02:18:23,960 Speaker 5: they just passed Joe Biden's budget. That's exactly penny for penny. 2490 02:18:24,080 --> 02:18:27,000 Speaker 5: It's Joe Biden's budget, line for line, that's what the 2491 02:18:27,080 --> 02:18:29,920 Speaker 5: House representatives put on the floor. I didn't vote for it, 2492 02:18:30,320 --> 02:18:32,720 Speaker 5: and one other Republican did not vote for it, but 2493 02:18:32,800 --> 02:18:35,240 Speaker 5: it's still passed the House. It went to the Senate, 2494 02:18:35,959 --> 02:18:39,560 Speaker 5: and ironically, you have people Republicans who didn't vote for 2495 02:18:39,720 --> 02:18:44,440 Speaker 5: it when it was under when Joe Biden was president, 2496 02:18:44,879 --> 02:18:47,160 Speaker 5: but now that Donald Trump is president, they're voting for 2497 02:18:47,320 --> 02:18:51,760 Speaker 5: Joe Biden's budgets. I'm literally one of the only members 2498 02:18:51,800 --> 02:18:54,960 Speaker 5: of Congress who hasn't flipped their vote on this. It 2499 02:18:55,160 --> 02:18:57,119 Speaker 5: used to be the other vote right round. 2500 02:18:57,840 --> 02:19:00,760 Speaker 3: Because you're a you're a fiscal hau and of course 2501 02:19:00,800 --> 02:19:03,240 Speaker 3: the constitutional purists, and those are reasons why you wouldn't 2502 02:19:03,240 --> 02:19:06,199 Speaker 3: want to extend Joe Biden's level funding. And I understand 2503 02:19:06,240 --> 02:19:09,720 Speaker 3: that all day long. But from a strategy standpoint, ignoring 2504 02:19:10,440 --> 02:19:11,680 Speaker 3: the de side that you and I are both on, 2505 02:19:12,520 --> 02:19:15,680 Speaker 3: it does make sense to keep that Biden level because 2506 02:19:15,720 --> 02:19:18,800 Speaker 3: that satisfied the Democrats last year. And that's a wonderful 2507 02:19:18,840 --> 02:19:21,440 Speaker 3: talking point when you're trying to counter their oh my god, 2508 02:19:21,520 --> 02:19:23,720 Speaker 3: we're all going to die narrative that goes along with 2509 02:19:23,840 --> 02:19:26,720 Speaker 3: this shutdown in the Republican cr. 2510 02:19:27,879 --> 02:19:30,760 Speaker 5: And let me tell you something, just to be completely 2511 02:19:30,920 --> 02:19:36,000 Speaker 5: intellectually honest, Joe Biden's budget because of Joe Biden's inflation. 2512 02:19:36,800 --> 02:19:39,200 Speaker 5: If you do the same thing dollar for dollar, it's 2513 02:19:39,280 --> 02:19:41,800 Speaker 5: going to be about five percent less than it was 2514 02:19:41,959 --> 02:19:47,440 Speaker 5: last year because of inflation. But and so you might say, well, 2515 02:19:47,520 --> 02:19:49,840 Speaker 5: then Congress and Matthew, why wouldn't you be inclined to 2516 02:19:50,000 --> 02:19:53,760 Speaker 5: vote for Joe Biden's spending levels since inflation will reduce 2517 02:19:53,879 --> 02:19:57,000 Speaker 5: this and solve the budget problem for you. Well, there's 2518 02:19:57,040 --> 02:19:57,720 Speaker 5: two reasons. 2519 02:19:58,160 --> 02:19:58,320 Speaker 2: One. 2520 02:19:58,600 --> 02:20:02,640 Speaker 5: Spending is policy. It's it's not that we've spent one 2521 02:20:02,720 --> 02:20:04,840 Speaker 5: point five trillion under Joe Biden and we're going to 2522 02:20:04,879 --> 02:20:08,199 Speaker 5: spend one point five trillion under Trump. It's that every 2523 02:20:08,520 --> 02:20:11,720 Speaker 5: line item in there is exactly the same, including the 2524 02:20:11,800 --> 02:20:14,520 Speaker 5: things that we cut out in DOGE. Now, the DOGE 2525 02:20:14,560 --> 02:20:18,240 Speaker 5: cuts were only temporary, So what happens if Joe Biden's 2526 02:20:18,240 --> 02:20:21,040 Speaker 5: budget passes again, All of the stuff we cut out 2527 02:20:21,320 --> 02:20:23,480 Speaker 5: using DOGE goes back into the budget. 2528 02:20:24,640 --> 02:20:25,600 Speaker 6: So and then the. 2529 02:20:25,680 --> 02:20:28,640 Speaker 5: DEI stuff, that's all that's all going to be in there. 2530 02:20:29,200 --> 02:20:32,320 Speaker 5: So it's number one. Spending is policy when you do 2531 02:20:32,400 --> 02:20:35,959 Speaker 5: it line by line. If you said, well, Trump will 2532 02:20:36,000 --> 02:20:39,520 Speaker 5: spend exactly the same amount, diminished by inflation, but we'll 2533 02:20:39,680 --> 02:20:42,800 Speaker 5: move it around to different priorities, I might be able 2534 02:20:42,879 --> 02:20:46,760 Speaker 5: to get behind that. Now here's the other reason I'm 2535 02:20:46,920 --> 02:20:50,720 Speaker 5: not for Joe Biden's budget minus the five percent inflation 2536 02:20:51,360 --> 02:20:54,880 Speaker 5: because in the Big Beautiful Bill, which was supposed to 2537 02:20:55,000 --> 02:20:59,119 Speaker 5: only deal with mandatory spending, they added about four hundred 2538 02:20:59,160 --> 02:21:04,160 Speaker 5: billion dollars of discretionary spending. So they put appropriations in 2539 02:21:04,360 --> 02:21:09,320 Speaker 5: the Big Bill a few months ago on DOJ that's 2540 02:21:09,400 --> 02:21:12,840 Speaker 5: Department of Justice, Department of Homeland Security, and Department of Defense. 2541 02:21:13,520 --> 02:21:18,000 Speaker 5: So they the Republicans have already plussed up spending. So 2542 02:21:18,160 --> 02:21:21,600 Speaker 5: that even if we passed Joe Biden's budget, which is 2543 02:21:21,680 --> 02:21:25,360 Speaker 5: what Mike Johnson wants to do, and John dune. Even 2544 02:21:25,440 --> 02:21:27,840 Speaker 5: if we passed Joe Biden's budget, and even if we 2545 02:21:27,920 --> 02:21:32,120 Speaker 5: can account for inflation diminishing those dollar values, they've already 2546 02:21:32,160 --> 02:21:34,520 Speaker 5: plussed up the budget a few months ago, and that's 2547 02:21:34,680 --> 02:21:36,920 Speaker 5: really what they won't tell you on the news. That's 2548 02:21:36,959 --> 02:21:39,120 Speaker 5: why the Democrats are mad. They didn't get a plus 2549 02:21:39,240 --> 02:21:42,320 Speaker 5: up in their line items. And the usual deal wink wink, 2550 02:21:42,440 --> 02:21:46,440 Speaker 5: nod nod in Washington, DC is Republicans increased their spending 2551 02:21:46,640 --> 02:21:49,440 Speaker 5: and Democrats increased their spending, and that's how you get 2552 02:21:49,440 --> 02:21:52,800 Speaker 5: to sixty votes in the Senate. So that's why they're 2553 02:21:52,840 --> 02:21:55,119 Speaker 5: not voting for it. And then they're making up these 2554 02:21:55,200 --> 02:21:59,720 Speaker 5: other medical things. Those aren't fights. If the stuff expires 2555 02:21:59,760 --> 02:22:02,080 Speaker 5: into December, then that's when you have the fight in December. 2556 02:22:02,120 --> 02:22:07,440 Speaker 5: They're also trying to undo the fraud fixes that we 2557 02:22:07,959 --> 02:22:10,920 Speaker 5: put in the big beautiful bill to keep illegals from 2558 02:22:10,959 --> 02:22:14,240 Speaker 5: getting Medicaid and whatnot. The Democrats are trying to take 2559 02:22:14,360 --> 02:22:16,600 Speaker 5: that back out. But that's not the fight that you're 2560 02:22:16,640 --> 02:22:19,920 Speaker 5: supposed to have on these appropriations bills. This should be 2561 02:22:20,080 --> 02:22:22,680 Speaker 5: only the twelve spending bills, and you're right, we should 2562 02:22:22,760 --> 02:22:24,640 Speaker 5: be back in Washington working on them. 2563 02:22:24,879 --> 02:22:27,440 Speaker 3: And where they'll have another opportunity to do whatever the 2564 02:22:27,480 --> 02:22:30,439 Speaker 3: hell they want by way of policy or extending supplements 2565 02:22:30,520 --> 02:22:33,039 Speaker 3: for people who otherwise don't need it. Let's pause. Bring 2566 02:22:33,080 --> 02:22:35,480 Speaker 3: Congressman Thomas Massey back at eight fifteen, right now fifty 2567 02:22:35,520 --> 02:22:40,039 Speaker 3: five Kerr CD talk Ryan Thomas and Congressman Thomas Massey. 2568 02:22:42,320 --> 02:22:42,680 Speaker 2: Congress A. 2569 02:22:42,720 --> 02:22:45,720 Speaker 3: Massy, you suggested, and I think at the foregone conclusion 2570 02:22:45,760 --> 02:22:47,480 Speaker 3: you are ultimately going to get your vote on the 2571 02:22:47,600 --> 02:22:50,440 Speaker 3: Epstein file release. And I always like to use this 2572 02:22:50,520 --> 02:22:54,240 Speaker 3: opportunity as a time to express my dismay that Trump 2573 02:22:54,280 --> 02:22:55,920 Speaker 3: did a one to eighty. I mean, he campaigned on 2574 02:22:56,040 --> 02:22:58,120 Speaker 3: releasing the stuff. A lot of Republicans were demanding it 2575 02:22:58,200 --> 02:23:02,119 Speaker 3: during the Biden administration, Democrats and bother pushing to release 2576 02:23:02,160 --> 02:23:04,280 Speaker 3: the documents when they had the opportunity to do so. 2577 02:23:04,400 --> 02:23:06,640 Speaker 3: But now they're clamoring to do it. I don't know 2578 02:23:06,720 --> 02:23:09,959 Speaker 3: what changed. Honestly, no one brings it up anymore except 2579 02:23:10,000 --> 02:23:13,840 Speaker 3: you this morning, for example. But once the government shutdown 2580 02:23:13,959 --> 02:23:17,320 Speaker 3: is over and people return to work and the recess 2581 02:23:17,480 --> 02:23:19,440 Speaker 3: is over, there's going to be a vote, right. 2582 02:23:20,720 --> 02:23:23,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, And the government shutdown doesn't have to be over. 2583 02:23:23,480 --> 02:23:26,280 Speaker 5: This is an act of Congress that doesn't require funding. 2584 02:23:26,920 --> 02:23:29,640 Speaker 5: We can go back into session, and as soon as 2585 02:23:29,720 --> 02:23:35,000 Speaker 5: we do, there's a congresswoman named Grihalva who won her 2586 02:23:35,080 --> 02:23:38,480 Speaker 5: election two weeks ago who hasn't been sworn in. This 2587 02:23:38,640 --> 02:23:44,160 Speaker 5: is also unprecedented, spigious thing that we're not in. But 2588 02:23:44,280 --> 02:23:46,680 Speaker 5: the reality is we have these pro format sessions every 2589 02:23:46,760 --> 02:23:49,920 Speaker 5: four days to keep the House and the Senate from 2590 02:23:49,959 --> 02:23:53,520 Speaker 5: going into recess, ironically, to keep President Trump from making 2591 02:23:53,600 --> 02:23:57,000 Speaker 5: recess appointments. I don't agree with it, but that's what 2592 02:23:57,120 --> 02:23:59,400 Speaker 5: they do. Every four days they meet, and they could 2593 02:23:59,440 --> 02:24:02,480 Speaker 5: swear this congresswoman in on one of these recess appointments, 2594 02:24:02,520 --> 02:24:05,160 Speaker 5: because they did that with two Republicans already this year, 2595 02:24:05,680 --> 02:24:08,120 Speaker 5: but the Speaker's not doing it. So as soon as 2596 02:24:08,160 --> 02:24:11,720 Speaker 5: we get back now, this is what I'm telling you 2597 02:24:11,840 --> 02:24:16,320 Speaker 5: is predicated on an assumption that none of my three 2598 02:24:16,520 --> 02:24:20,560 Speaker 5: Republican co signers can be flipped by the White House, 2599 02:24:20,640 --> 02:24:23,920 Speaker 5: because the White House is trying desperately to get either 2600 02:24:24,080 --> 02:24:27,480 Speaker 5: Marjorie Taylor Green, Nancy Mace, or Lauren Bobert to take 2601 02:24:27,680 --> 02:24:33,200 Speaker 5: their names off of my petition. But should they succeed 2602 02:24:33,520 --> 02:24:35,879 Speaker 5: in getting one of those women to take their names 2603 02:24:35,959 --> 02:24:40,000 Speaker 5: off the petition, there's another congressperson who will be elected 2604 02:24:40,080 --> 02:24:44,680 Speaker 5: in November who will be signing the discharge petition. So 2605 02:24:45,720 --> 02:24:48,039 Speaker 5: I don't know why they keep dragging this out, whether 2606 02:24:48,280 --> 02:24:50,600 Speaker 5: they just keep fighting to the bitter end. We should 2607 02:24:50,680 --> 02:24:52,960 Speaker 5: have the vote. They can try to stop me in 2608 02:24:53,000 --> 02:24:56,640 Speaker 5: the Senate, but they do. Here's the thing, Briant, they 2609 02:24:56,680 --> 02:24:58,640 Speaker 5: don't even want to have the vote. 2610 02:25:01,600 --> 02:25:04,040 Speaker 3: Well, lots of red flags waved over that one. Just 2611 02:25:04,160 --> 02:25:07,879 Speaker 3: I mean, that just fuels the conspiracy theory narrative out there. 2612 02:25:08,280 --> 02:25:10,160 Speaker 3: And who are we protecting on this? 2613 02:25:11,480 --> 02:25:18,400 Speaker 5: Good? Good question, good question. So the victims' lawyers have 2614 02:25:18,840 --> 02:25:21,560 Speaker 5: indicated to me they are at least twenty men who 2615 02:25:21,800 --> 02:25:24,960 Speaker 5: Epstein trafficked women to that they gave the names to 2616 02:25:25,040 --> 02:25:28,640 Speaker 5: the FBI, and the FBI recorded them, memorialized that in 2617 02:25:28,680 --> 02:25:31,800 Speaker 5: there three h two forms. So we know that the 2618 02:25:31,959 --> 02:25:35,400 Speaker 5: FBI has at least twenty names. I think six of 2619 02:25:35,480 --> 02:25:39,240 Speaker 5: them are billionaires, one of them is a movie producer, 2620 02:25:39,440 --> 02:25:42,320 Speaker 5: one is a former politician, one is a current person 2621 02:25:42,440 --> 02:25:46,800 Speaker 5: in government, one's a CEO. Like I don't know their names, 2622 02:25:46,840 --> 02:25:49,800 Speaker 5: but these are the indication that the victims lawyers have 2623 02:25:49,920 --> 02:25:53,280 Speaker 5: given to me and the reason they don't put out 2624 02:25:53,320 --> 02:25:56,879 Speaker 5: the names is they would be sued into homelessness for defamation. 2625 02:25:57,240 --> 02:25:59,800 Speaker 5: The government doesn't pursue any of this if they can't, 2626 02:26:00,520 --> 02:26:02,840 Speaker 5: you get any of the evidence out there, and the 2627 02:26:02,920 --> 02:26:05,080 Speaker 5: government's in possession of it. So the government needs to 2628 02:26:05,120 --> 02:26:08,720 Speaker 5: release their names. But here's what I know. I know 2629 02:26:08,920 --> 02:26:12,440 Speaker 5: the President is trying to protect some top Republican donors 2630 02:26:13,000 --> 02:26:17,160 Speaker 5: and friends of his in West Palm Beach and I 2631 02:26:17,280 --> 02:26:18,480 Speaker 5: will stand by that. 2632 02:26:18,680 --> 02:26:20,160 Speaker 6: And go to my grave on that. 2633 02:26:20,959 --> 02:26:22,960 Speaker 3: Well, that would explain it, wouldn't it. I mean that 2634 02:26:23,480 --> 02:26:26,320 Speaker 3: it's not right, but it certainly would make sense as 2635 02:26:26,320 --> 02:26:27,879 Speaker 3: to how he didn't why he did a one to eighty. 2636 02:26:29,240 --> 02:26:34,080 Speaker 5: And then the other question is, well if the president's 2637 02:26:34,240 --> 02:26:37,000 Speaker 5: donors stand to lose in this White and Joe Biden 2638 02:26:37,040 --> 02:26:41,119 Speaker 5: and the Democrats pursue this when they were in power, right, Well, 2639 02:26:41,200 --> 02:26:44,920 Speaker 5: it's because once you get to the billionaire class, a 2640 02:26:45,000 --> 02:26:47,560 Speaker 5: lot of these billionaires are just members of the UNI Party. 2641 02:26:47,680 --> 02:26:50,800 Speaker 5: They give to whichever party's in power. Who's ever having 2642 02:26:50,879 --> 02:26:53,920 Speaker 5: the best parties? How do you get to the Lincoln 2643 02:26:54,120 --> 02:26:57,920 Speaker 5: Bedroom in the White House. So they give to both parties. 2644 02:26:58,080 --> 02:27:02,320 Speaker 5: And I think you're going to see men implicated who 2645 02:27:02,400 --> 02:27:06,360 Speaker 5: are friends and donors of both parties in this and 2646 02:27:06,480 --> 02:27:11,560 Speaker 5: then also finally, this is the conspiracy theory, but there's 2647 02:27:11,600 --> 02:27:14,400 Speaker 5: a lot of weight to it. I introduced five documents 2648 02:27:14,440 --> 02:27:16,640 Speaker 5: into the record in front of cash Battel a few 2649 02:27:16,720 --> 02:27:20,640 Speaker 5: weeks ago in our judiciary hearing that indicate that Jeffrey 2650 02:27:20,680 --> 02:27:28,039 Speaker 5: Epstein was working with National Intelligence MASAD and the CIA. 2651 02:27:28,640 --> 02:27:31,160 Speaker 5: And I asked, I even asked cash Battel, have you 2652 02:27:31,240 --> 02:27:36,480 Speaker 5: seen the CIA file on Jeffrey Epstein? He has not so, 2653 02:27:37,320 --> 02:27:41,600 Speaker 5: and there is one. Now, why wouldn't he go look 2654 02:27:41,640 --> 02:27:41,800 Speaker 5: at that? 2655 02:27:42,040 --> 02:27:42,520 Speaker 3: Good question? 2656 02:27:42,680 --> 02:27:45,640 Speaker 5: Well, you know he's allowed to go see that. You 2657 02:27:45,720 --> 02:27:47,320 Speaker 5: can't keep the director of the FBI. 2658 02:27:47,480 --> 02:27:48,920 Speaker 3: So he looks at it, he's going to have to 2659 02:27:48,959 --> 02:27:52,040 Speaker 3: answer your questions. He can just play ignorance. I don't 2660 02:27:52,040 --> 02:27:53,680 Speaker 3: want to see it because then I'll have to Then 2661 02:27:53,720 --> 02:27:56,039 Speaker 3: I'll say, yeah, I do know what's in there. Yeah, 2662 02:27:56,120 --> 02:27:56,720 Speaker 3: that makes sense. 2663 02:27:57,680 --> 02:27:59,480 Speaker 5: I asked cash Battel, have you seen the three h 2664 02:27:59,560 --> 02:28:01,920 Speaker 5: two form that the FBI filled out when they interviewed 2665 02:28:01,920 --> 02:28:05,080 Speaker 5: the victims. He's not seen them. No, he's trusting. His 2666 02:28:05,320 --> 02:28:07,760 Speaker 5: answer to me was he trusts that the people working 2667 02:28:07,840 --> 02:28:10,600 Speaker 5: at the FBI would have given him those names if 2668 02:28:10,640 --> 02:28:14,800 Speaker 5: they were credible evidence, and then my question is do 2669 02:28:14,879 --> 02:28:22,760 Speaker 5: you not think the victims are credible? Let's the Speaker 2670 02:28:22,800 --> 02:28:25,400 Speaker 5: of the House is trying to say that he's trying 2671 02:28:25,440 --> 02:28:29,640 Speaker 5: to protect the victims, but my legislation would redact their 2672 02:28:29,720 --> 02:28:32,119 Speaker 5: names in anything that could be used to identify them 2673 02:28:32,200 --> 02:28:35,600 Speaker 5: out of the files, and the victims themselves support my legislation. 2674 02:28:35,760 --> 02:28:38,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the big point right there. Yeah, he's making 2675 02:28:38,920 --> 02:28:43,960 Speaker 3: an argument on their behalf that they don't want asserted. Wow, well, 2676 02:28:44,000 --> 02:28:46,760 Speaker 3: welcome to government. No kid in Congress, Amassi. Let me 2677 02:28:46,800 --> 02:28:50,840 Speaker 3: ask a simple, straightforward question, since Judge Enntan Andrew Napoltan 2678 02:28:50,959 --> 02:28:53,320 Speaker 3: is up next and he's maybe listening but going to 2679 02:28:53,360 --> 02:28:58,120 Speaker 3: be commenting on this is an opinion from the Office 2680 02:28:58,200 --> 02:29:01,800 Speaker 3: of Legal Counsel within the Justice Department telling Donald Trump 2681 02:29:01,920 --> 02:29:06,920 Speaker 3: that he is allowed to authorize deadly force use against 2682 02:29:07,240 --> 02:29:10,440 Speaker 3: well cartels because they pose an imminent threat to Americans. 2683 02:29:10,520 --> 02:29:14,320 Speaker 3: Does a boat fifteen hundred miles away a small boat 2684 02:29:14,400 --> 02:29:16,640 Speaker 3: maybe goes fifteen to twenty knots?

I just it's like, you want to be optimistic, 2732 02:31:48,920 --> 02:31:51,400 Speaker 3: but they give us no reason whatsoever to be optimistic. 2733 02:31:51,520 --> 02:31:54,000 Speaker 3: So maybe there is an element in there that's optimism. 2734 02:31:54,240 --> 02:31:55,360 Speaker 2: I feel sorry for. 2735 02:31:57,200 --> 02:31:59,760 Speaker 7: Joe Burrow. He's such a talented kid, but he just 2736 02:32:00,080 --> 02:32:03,000 Speaker 7: keeps getting hurt, I know, over and over again. 2737 02:32:03,320 --> 02:32:05,480 Speaker 3: Well that came up in conversation early in the program, 2738 02:32:05,600 --> 02:32:08,920 Speaker 3: and I think we're blaming management, coaching staff, the owners 2739 02:32:09,000 --> 02:32:13,680 Speaker 3: for maybe not adequately protecting Joe by Joe Burrow with 2740 02:32:13,760 --> 02:32:18,560 Speaker 3: a reasonably competent offensive line. But you know, we'll see 2741 02:32:18,600 --> 02:32:21,680 Speaker 3: how things play out over the long term, all right, 2742 02:32:21,959 --> 02:32:24,160 Speaker 3: And I love your column. I don't know if you 2743 02:32:24,160 --> 02:32:26,640 Speaker 3: heard me ask Congressom Massey about the Office of Legal 2744 02:32:26,720 --> 02:32:29,320 Speaker 3: Counsel and Department of Justice giving Donald Trump the keys 2745 02:32:29,400 --> 02:32:32,240 Speaker 3: to the American military when we face what he believes 2746 02:32:32,280 --> 02:32:36,240 Speaker 3: to be an eminent threat Congress, and Massey just basically 2747 02:32:36,280 --> 02:32:39,279 Speaker 3: said that that office is really designed to uphold literally 2748 02:32:39,360 --> 02:32:42,160 Speaker 3: anything the White House wants to do, regardless of administration. 2749 02:32:42,280 --> 02:32:44,200 Speaker 3: But I want to pause on that for a moment 2750 02:32:44,240 --> 02:32:47,960 Speaker 3: and ask you about what I thought was really I 2751 02:32:48,000 --> 02:32:53,120 Speaker 3: don't know, orwellian the fact that Donald did. Rather all 2752 02:32:53,160 --> 02:32:56,080 Speaker 3: these elected officials, seven Senators and one member of the 2753 02:32:56,080 --> 02:33:00,000 Speaker 3: House of Representative in this Arctic Frost investigation launched by 2754 02:33:00,120 --> 02:33:04,240 Speaker 3: the FBI in connection with the January sixth riots, they 2755 02:33:04,360 --> 02:33:09,039 Speaker 3: got their phone records. We've talked about this kind. 2756 02:33:09,200 --> 02:33:13,600 Speaker 7: They have nobody to blame but themselves, right because the statute, 2757 02:33:13,720 --> 02:33:17,840 Speaker 7: the Electronic Privacy so called Electronic Privacy Act, you know, 2758 02:33:17,920 --> 02:33:23,080 Speaker 7: the name really is often the misnumber permits FBI agency 2759 02:33:23,080 --> 02:33:26,920 Speaker 7: to get metadata. So it's who you called, when you called, 2760 02:33:27,400 --> 02:33:30,880 Speaker 7: and how long you spoke. It's not the actual conversation. 2761 02:33:31,800 --> 02:33:34,480 Speaker 7: I've been condemning this as a violation of the Fourth 2762 02:33:34,520 --> 02:33:37,400 Speaker 7: Amendment since it was first inactive. This is enacted by 2763 02:33:37,520 --> 02:33:41,240 Speaker 7: the Congress. They probably never imagined that it would happen 2764 02:33:41,640 --> 02:33:43,959 Speaker 7: to them. That doesn't make it moral, and it doesn't 2765 02:33:44,000 --> 02:33:47,520 Speaker 7: make it constitutional, but it does make it legal. And 2766 02:33:47,640 --> 02:33:52,000 Speaker 7: to make it even worse, Brian, this does not require 2767 02:33:52,840 --> 02:33:56,280 Speaker 7: a search warrant signed by a judge. It can be 2768 02:33:56,400 --> 02:33:59,760 Speaker 7: done by one of two ways, the grand Jerry subpoena 2769 02:34:00,560 --> 02:34:02,440 Speaker 7: and a good prosecutor can get a grand jury to 2770 02:34:02,480 --> 02:34:07,080 Speaker 7: sapoena anything, or a national security letter chie what is 2771 02:34:07,200 --> 02:34:12,560 Speaker 7: a national security letter Patriot Act? That's where one FBI 2772 02:34:12,760 --> 02:34:18,279 Speaker 7: agent authorizes another FBI agent to issue a search warrant 2773 02:34:18,560 --> 02:34:24,760 Speaker 7: on stored records at your lawyer's office, your doctor's office, 2774 02:34:25,000 --> 02:34:31,320 Speaker 7: your telecom, your computer server. Witherson that I don't blame 2775 02:34:31,720 --> 02:34:35,320 Speaker 7: is and I frequently disagree with him. As Senator Holly, 2776 02:34:35,440 --> 02:34:39,360 Speaker 7: he was outraged. He was not in the Senate when 2777 02:34:39,440 --> 02:34:42,720 Speaker 7: this legislation was enacted, but almost everybody else on that 2778 02:34:42,800 --> 02:34:46,800 Speaker 7: committee yesterday was in both parties. In fact, the chair 2779 02:34:47,200 --> 02:34:49,600 Speaker 7: that's been in the center for thirty years was around 2780 02:34:49,720 --> 02:34:52,039 Speaker 7: when the original legislation was enacted. 2781 02:34:53,680 --> 02:34:55,520 Speaker 3: I'm glad you framed it that way. I had a 2782 02:34:55,600 --> 02:34:58,600 Speaker 3: student listener call and point out the exact same thing. Republicans, 2783 02:34:58,600 --> 02:35:01,320 Speaker 3: anybody who voted for that. Nobody blamed for themselves for 2784 02:35:01,360 --> 02:35:03,240 Speaker 3: the fact that it's being used against them in this 2785 02:35:03,360 --> 02:35:07,480 Speaker 3: particular case. Question of whose ox is being gord I suppose. 2786 02:35:08,040 --> 02:35:10,840 Speaker 7: Right nobody's ox should be gored. They should follow the 2787 02:35:10,920 --> 02:35:15,560 Speaker 7: Fourth Amendment. If Jack Smith had probable cause to believe 2788 02:35:15,640 --> 02:35:18,359 Speaker 7: that there was evidence of a crime in a conversation 2789 02:35:18,640 --> 02:35:21,280 Speaker 7: between I'm just going to use this hypothetically. I don't 2790 02:35:21,320 --> 02:35:25,560 Speaker 7: know if the conversation happened Senator Josh Holly and President 2791 02:35:25,640 --> 02:35:28,360 Speaker 7: Trump on January fifth or January sixth. He goes to 2792 02:35:28,480 --> 02:35:31,880 Speaker 7: a federal judge, presents the evidence, and if the judge agrees, 2793 02:35:31,920 --> 02:35:35,720 Speaker 7: he signs a search warrant. Short of that, not neither 2794 02:35:35,879 --> 02:35:39,400 Speaker 7: Jack Smith nor any prosecutor, under any circumstances has the 2795 02:35:39,520 --> 02:35:44,080 Speaker 7: right to surveil communications. But the Congress has butchered that 2796 02:35:44,320 --> 02:35:48,680 Speaker 7: in a series of legislation, going back to legislative acts, 2797 02:35:48,760 --> 02:35:50,920 Speaker 7: going back to be four nine to eleven. I believe 2798 02:35:50,959 --> 02:35:55,440 Speaker 7: it or not, what left wing pinko creep signed the 2799 02:35:55,680 --> 02:35:59,959 Speaker 7: first of these laws allowing the government to get your. 2800 02:36:00,360 --> 02:36:03,039 Speaker 3: Records George Bush right, Ronald. 2801 02:36:03,160 --> 02:36:09,040 Speaker 7: Ray, nineteen eighty six. So this stuff goes way back. 2802 02:36:09,160 --> 02:36:13,080 Speaker 7: It was of course accelerated after nine to eleven. After 2803 02:36:13,200 --> 02:36:15,120 Speaker 7: nine to eleven you have the Patriot Act and a 2804 02:36:15,280 --> 02:36:18,440 Speaker 7: slew of amendments to it, every single one of which 2805 02:36:18,600 --> 02:36:22,840 Speaker 7: makes surveillance without a search weren't easier. But the original 2806 02:36:22,959 --> 02:36:25,400 Speaker 7: damage was done in nineteen eighty six under the so 2807 02:36:25,640 --> 02:36:34,440 Speaker 7: called Bank Privacy Act, which gave the FEDS the right 2808 02:36:34,600 --> 02:36:38,600 Speaker 7: to look at banking information. When you deposited more than 2809 02:36:38,680 --> 02:36:42,119 Speaker 7: ten thousand dollars in one deposit, That's that's what opened 2810 02:36:42,200 --> 02:36:43,199 Speaker 7: up these floodgates. 2811 02:36:43,840 --> 02:36:47,160 Speaker 3: And when you frame it that way, I just scratched 2812 02:36:47,200 --> 02:36:49,680 Speaker 3: my head and wonder, why what possible mean? Well, what 2813 02:36:49,840 --> 02:36:54,480 Speaker 3: cartels are using in drug dealers and brutalizing in those days. 2814 02:36:54,959 --> 02:36:58,560 Speaker 7: In those days, we were at the tail end of 2815 02:36:58,840 --> 02:37:02,840 Speaker 7: the drug wars, which had destroyed the Fourth Amendment, And 2816 02:37:03,160 --> 02:37:06,959 Speaker 7: fear of drug dealers is what animated Congress Post nine 2817 02:37:07,000 --> 02:37:11,120 Speaker 7: to eleven. Of course, it is fear of terrorism, and 2818 02:37:11,800 --> 02:37:15,160 Speaker 7: what is it now? Whatever Donald Trump says, it is 2819 02:37:15,360 --> 02:37:20,600 Speaker 7: fear of immigrants, fear of narco terrorists, fear of whatever 2820 02:37:20,600 --> 02:37:22,400 Speaker 7: you want to be afraid of. In terms of what 2821 02:37:22,480 --> 02:37:25,280 Speaker 7: Congressman Massey said, I had an Internet problem on my 2822 02:37:25,480 --> 02:37:28,400 Speaker 7: previous gig and I was not able to jump on. 2823 02:37:28,520 --> 02:37:30,240 Speaker 7: Of course, I agree with everything he says. But the 2824 02:37:30,280 --> 02:37:34,879 Speaker 7: Office of Legal Counsel was once the DOJ's lawyers. You'll 2825 02:37:34,959 --> 02:37:38,279 Speaker 7: know the names of two people who in their younger 2826 02:37:38,440 --> 02:37:41,080 Speaker 7: days ran the Office of Legal Counsel. One of them 2827 02:37:41,120 --> 02:37:46,240 Speaker 7: is named William Rehnquist and the other is named antonin Scalia. 2828 02:37:46,400 --> 02:37:51,760 Speaker 7: These were truly the brightest stars in the DOJ. They 2829 02:37:51,959 --> 02:37:55,520 Speaker 7: told the DOJ the law as they understood it. They 2830 02:37:55,560 --> 02:37:59,920 Speaker 7: were impervious to politics no longer today. I am die 2831 02:38:00,240 --> 02:38:02,959 Speaker 7: to see this so called secret memorandum that she has. 2832 02:38:03,360 --> 02:38:08,359 Speaker 7: How can analysis of a public law possibly be secret? 2833 02:38:08,600 --> 02:38:11,200 Speaker 3: I know I was going to ask you about that. 2834 02:38:11,280 --> 02:38:14,000 Speaker 3: He's not going to reveal the memo to the general public, 2835 02:38:14,040 --> 02:38:17,720 Speaker 3: even though CNN is widely reported on it. But eminent 2836 02:38:17,840 --> 02:38:22,560 Speaker 3: threat isn't that a rather subjective measure when it comes 2837 02:38:22,600 --> 02:38:25,080 Speaker 3: to determined whether they're going to use military force. And 2838 02:38:25,240 --> 02:38:27,000 Speaker 3: I go back to the boats, he's blown up. I 2839 02:38:27,000 --> 02:38:28,640 Speaker 3: don't like drugs. I don't want him in in the 2840 02:38:28,760 --> 02:38:30,600 Speaker 3: United States. But you know that's what we have a 2841 02:38:30,680 --> 02:38:33,400 Speaker 3: coastguard for. If they get close to us, then we 2842 02:38:33,440 --> 02:38:34,600 Speaker 3: can pick him up in process. 2843 02:38:35,320 --> 02:38:39,879 Speaker 7: How could four guys in a speedboat fifteen hundred miles 2844 02:38:39,920 --> 02:38:43,360 Speaker 7: from the US, unarmed or maybe with just small arms, 2845 02:38:43,480 --> 02:38:47,200 Speaker 7: you know, handguns, possibly be considered an eminent threat to 2846 02:38:47,280 --> 02:38:51,040 Speaker 7: the national security of the United States. The answer is 2847 02:38:51,440 --> 02:38:54,600 Speaker 7: they can't, And even if they were an eminent threat, 2848 02:38:54,720 --> 02:38:59,080 Speaker 7: it would make much more sense to arrest them, search 2849 02:38:59,240 --> 02:39:03,240 Speaker 7: the boat if there's drugs there, seize the assets and 2850 02:39:03,520 --> 02:39:08,280 Speaker 7: then engage in plean negotiations with one of them to 2851 02:39:08,600 --> 02:39:12,000 Speaker 7: find out where the drugs came from and who their 2852 02:39:12,080 --> 02:39:16,080 Speaker 7: sources are. There are ways to accomplish these goals without 2853 02:39:16,680 --> 02:39:17,840 Speaker 7: murdering people. 2854 02:39:18,040 --> 02:39:20,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, no question about it. Go about the normal course 2855 02:39:20,760 --> 02:39:23,400 Speaker 3: of business. Pick them up. They obviously can committed a crime. Look, 2856 02:39:23,440 --> 02:39:26,400 Speaker 3: it's a drug, vote drug, it's a boat full of drugs. 2857 02:39:26,879 --> 02:39:29,520 Speaker 3: That's against law. You're in our territory of waters. You're 2858 02:39:29,520 --> 02:39:33,359 Speaker 3: going to be subject to prosecution anyhow. It's just troubling 2859 02:39:33,400 --> 02:39:35,960 Speaker 3: from my perspective. And I worry you know, a lot 2860 02:39:36,040 --> 02:39:37,920 Speaker 3: of my listeners. I think I hate drug dealers. I 2861 02:39:37,959 --> 02:39:39,320 Speaker 3: don't care that they blew out. I don't care if 2862 02:39:39,360 --> 02:39:43,080 Speaker 3: it violates constitution. Well I do, because somebody else is 2863 02:39:43,080 --> 02:39:45,760 Speaker 3: going to be in office someday. Yeah, and they may 2864 02:39:45,840 --> 02:39:49,039 Speaker 3: decide that some organization that we don't believe necessarily representing 2865 02:39:49,080 --> 02:39:51,040 Speaker 3: them in the THREATSKA starts getting bombed because of their 2866 02:39:51,080 --> 02:39:54,600 Speaker 3: political ideology or their geopolitical ideology or whatever have you. 2867 02:39:55,000 --> 02:39:58,039 Speaker 3: It's so low a standard. And we're talking about America's 2868 02:39:58,080 --> 02:40:00,840 Speaker 3: military here at minimum, and you and I I think 2869 02:40:00,920 --> 02:40:03,720 Speaker 3: agree on this point. We don't believe authorizations for use 2870 02:40:03,760 --> 02:40:08,000 Speaker 3: of military force quite cut the constitutional declaration of war standard. 2871 02:40:08,360 --> 02:40:12,080 Speaker 3: But at least get Congress to agree with you and say, yes, 2872 02:40:12,280 --> 02:40:15,800 Speaker 3: you're right, we stamp of approval authorize you some military 2873 02:40:15,879 --> 02:40:17,959 Speaker 3: force because we believe this to be an eminent threat. 2874 02:40:17,959 --> 02:40:19,039 Speaker 3: We can ask that out. 2875 02:40:19,920 --> 02:40:24,880 Speaker 7: Right right, it's very, very dangerous. I got a little 2876 02:40:25,680 --> 02:40:29,000 Speaker 7: alarmist and hyperbolic at the end of my column saying 2877 02:40:29,640 --> 02:40:32,520 Speaker 7: who are they going to shoot next? Drug dealers in Chicago? 2878 02:40:32,760 --> 02:40:38,119 Speaker 7: But their logic for killing people before they commit crime 2879 02:40:38,959 --> 02:40:42,600 Speaker 7: is the same logic we could out outside the territory 2880 02:40:42,640 --> 02:40:45,640 Speaker 7: of warders of the United States. Is the same logic 2881 02:40:45,800 --> 02:40:49,760 Speaker 7: that they could apply to people inside the United States. 2882 02:40:50,080 --> 02:40:52,120 Speaker 7: By the way, how can it be a federal crime 2883 02:40:52,280 --> 02:40:56,560 Speaker 7: even if they were carrying drugs from Caracas to some 2884 02:40:56,959 --> 02:41:00,160 Speaker 7: island off the coast of Caracas. What this is u 2885 02:41:00,280 --> 02:41:04,320 Speaker 7: of the federal government is that does federal law apply 2886 02:41:05,240 --> 02:41:07,440 Speaker 7: everywhere on the planet. 2887 02:41:08,640 --> 02:41:11,440 Speaker 3: Don't tell them that they may get that idea, your honor, 2888 02:41:11,440 --> 02:41:13,959 Speaker 3: and we'll start bombing targets all over the world without 2889 02:41:14,040 --> 02:41:18,400 Speaker 3: with reckless abandon Judge Ennapolitano, logic. Reason is always on 2890 02:41:18,520 --> 02:41:20,240 Speaker 3: the plate when we talk with you, and I appreciate 2891 02:41:20,280 --> 02:41:22,040 Speaker 3: the willingness to come on the program every week and 2892 02:41:22,320 --> 02:41:23,400 Speaker 3: have these great conversations. 2893 02:41:23,520 --> 02:41:27,400 Speaker 7: Ran Brian, It's my favorite morning and I love being 2894 02:41:27,480 --> 02:41:30,439 Speaker 7: able to chat with you no matter what the Yankees 2895 02:41:30,560 --> 02:41:32,600 Speaker 7: or the Reds or the Bengals, or I hate to 2896 02:41:32,640 --> 02:41:37,640 Speaker 7: even mention this the football team New York Giants are doing. 2897 02:41:38,120 --> 02:41:39,840 Speaker 3: It was a strain for you to get those words 2898 02:41:39,879 --> 02:41:43,600 Speaker 3: out real quick judging Freedom is Weather is Podcast.

Does Iran pose 2907 02:42:12,240 --> 02:42:15,160 Speaker 7: a threat to the national security of the United States? 2908 02:42:15,840 --> 02:42:17,440 Speaker 2: Not one bit? 2909 02:42:18,040 --> 02:42:19,080 Speaker 7: But we're getting ready. 2910 02:42:19,320 --> 02:42:21,840 Speaker 3: It's gonna be a fascinating conversation.

He's running 2944 02:44:01,560 --> 02:44:04,600 Speaker 3: to serve the City of Cincinnati residents, and he's very 2945 02:44:04,760 --> 02:44:09,199 Speaker 3: clear on that all residents. He's not springing from particularly 2946 02:44:09,480 --> 02:44:13,800 Speaker 3: right wing perspective. He just realizes that we have priorities 2947 02:44:13,840 --> 02:44:18,120 Speaker 3: in the city and keeping roads paved and cracking down 2948 02:44:18,200 --> 02:44:21,600 Speaker 3: on crime, seeing that criminals are held accountable, to create 2949 02:44:21,600 --> 02:44:25,760 Speaker 3: a better environment for you and me, cutting out all 2950 02:44:25,800 --> 02:44:28,600 Speaker 3: the green new deal woke stuff that we can't afford, 2951 02:44:28,720 --> 02:44:30,879 Speaker 3: even if it was it was going to do something, 2952 02:44:34,200 --> 02:44:37,600 Speaker 3: And to anybody out there, that thinks that city taxpayer 2953 02:44:37,680 --> 02:44:40,840 Speaker 3: money should go toward green projects. Ask yourself, what the 2954 02:44:41,000 --> 02:44:44,480 Speaker 3: hell can the city of Cincinnati alone accomplish doing this. 2955 02:44:45,200 --> 02:44:47,120 Speaker 3: They're not doing it Warren County, they're not doing in 2956 02:44:47,200 --> 02:44:49,240 Speaker 3: Butler County. They're not doing it in Claremont County. They're 2957 02:44:49,240 --> 02:44:51,160 Speaker 3: not doing it in Newport, they're not doing it in Covington. 2958 02:44:51,200 --> 02:44:54,920 Speaker 3: I could go on, probably because maybe they don't have 2959 02:44:55,000 --> 02:44:58,800 Speaker 3: the financial resources to accomplish some carbon neutrality exercise or 2960 02:44:58,959 --> 02:45:03,600 Speaker 3: green energyduction exercise, but because maybe they practically say, gee, well, 2961 02:45:03,600 --> 02:45:05,840 Speaker 3: we're all breathing the same air. It's one big globe 2962 02:45:05,879 --> 02:45:09,039 Speaker 3: they are circulating and everything the entire country has done 2963 02:45:09,120 --> 02:45:12,240 Speaker 3: the name of carbon or cutting back carbon dioxide aka 2964 02:45:12,440 --> 02:45:15,720 Speaker 3: plant food hasn't done a wit to reduce the amount 2965 02:45:15,720 --> 02:45:18,080 Speaker 3: of carbon dioxide in the environment, thanks to China and 2966 02:45:18,200 --> 02:45:23,279 Speaker 3: India and Turkey and other very large producers of greenhouse gases, 2967 02:45:24,800 --> 02:45:28,360 Speaker 3: which I personally believe. Carbon dioxide is a pllutant to 2968 02:45:28,480 --> 02:45:30,800 Speaker 3: naturally occurring phenomenon. The plants need to live, so it 2969 02:45:30,879 --> 02:45:35,120 Speaker 3: occurs in the natural environment. It's critical for the functioning 2970 02:45:35,320 --> 02:45:40,600 Speaker 3: of the planet. So what in the hell is the 2971 02:45:40,680 --> 02:45:43,720 Speaker 3: city getting involved with something that even if they achieve 2972 02:45:43,840 --> 02:45:46,480 Speaker 3: their long term objectives and they could wave a flag 2973 02:45:46,560 --> 02:45:49,440 Speaker 3: saying we're carbon neutral in Cincinnati, what's it going to 2974 02:45:49,520 --> 02:45:53,959 Speaker 3: do for everybody in the world. Nothing so long winded 2975 02:45:53,959 --> 02:45:56,920 Speaker 3: way of saying that's I think that's backcrap insanity from 2976 02:45:56,920 --> 02:45:59,879 Speaker 3: the left. Do we want to allocate that as a priority. 2977 02:46:00,280 --> 02:46:03,640 Speaker 3: I think that Corey Bowman would not. Well, wait till 2978 02:46:03,680 --> 02:46:05,640 Speaker 3: after we get the roads fixed, Wait till after we 2979 02:46:05,680 --> 02:46:07,720 Speaker 3: get these big projects over with, Wait till after we 2980 02:46:07,760 --> 02:46:12,520 Speaker 3: get the crime situation ironed out, Wait till after we 2981 02:46:12,600 --> 02:46:16,160 Speaker 3: bring more investments by lowering the regulatory burden and getting 2982 02:46:16,240 --> 02:46:18,880 Speaker 3: things built and things accomplished. I mean, he's hit the 2983 02:46:19,000 --> 02:46:20,880 Speaker 3: nail on the head of all the problems the city 2984 02:46:20,959 --> 02:46:27,360 Speaker 3: has created, most notably created intentionally, I suppose, making it 2985 02:46:27,440 --> 02:46:29,280 Speaker 3: more difficult for us to live, thrive, and survive in 2986 02:46:29,320 --> 02:46:30,840 Speaker 3: the city. So what has that got to do with 2987 02:46:30,920 --> 02:46:33,720 Speaker 3: Jade Vance? Literally nothing headlined from Scott Warman to the 2988 02:46:33,760 --> 02:46:37,640 Speaker 3: Inquire in Cincinnati. Jd Vance's half brother hopes for a 2989 02:46:37,720 --> 02:46:41,640 Speaker 3: political earthquake in mayoral race. That's the headline. Didn't we 2990 02:46:41,680 --> 02:46:46,320 Speaker 3: put Corey Bowman in the headline this time around? The 2991 02:46:46,360 --> 02:46:49,560 Speaker 3: Republican Kennedy mentions Winster of Precity Sincinnati Mayor happens to 2992 02:46:49,640 --> 02:46:54,640 Speaker 3: be Vice President jd Vance's half brother, and then two 2993 02:46:54,720 --> 02:47:01,600 Speaker 3: paragraphs into the article he finally mentions Corey Bowman, and 2994 02:47:01,760 --> 02:47:04,880 Speaker 3: not the only time he mentions JD Vance's half brother. 2995 02:47:07,280 --> 02:47:08,880 Speaker 3: I think it's brought up three or four times in 2996 02:47:08,920 --> 02:47:11,040 Speaker 3: the article, and of course the article concludes making the 2997 02:47:11,080 --> 02:47:12,920 Speaker 3: point again to the extent you didn't get it from 2998 02:47:12,920 --> 02:47:16,000 Speaker 3: the headline or in the body of reporting. There it 2999 02:47:16,120 --> 02:47:20,200 Speaker 3: is at the close. But it's Bowman's family that has 3000 02:47:20,280 --> 02:47:23,560 Speaker 3: drawn much of the attention. His half brother is Vice 3001 02:47:23,600 --> 02:47:29,600 Speaker 3: President jd Vance. That sentence the second last sentence in 3002 02:47:29,720 --> 02:47:33,000 Speaker 3: the article. So we start with Jade Vance's half brother, 3003 02:47:33,080 --> 02:47:35,640 Speaker 3: we have references to that throughout the body of the article, 3004 02:47:35,760 --> 02:47:41,080 Speaker 3: and we conclude with that point. Why do you think 3005 02:47:41,160 --> 02:47:43,880 Speaker 3: that's been the dominant subject matter? Scott W.
