1
00:00:02,279 --> 00:00:06,760
Speaker 1: So I know that football players often take it hard

2
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:10,640
Speaker 1: when a teammate, especially a teammate who is beloved and

3
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:14,200
Speaker 1: a key contributor to the team, goes down with injuries,

4
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:21,639
Speaker 1: but I'm not entirely sure I have ever heard of this.

5
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:25,759
Speaker 1: In a locker room interview at practice this afternoon, Packers

6
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 1: wide receiver Romeo Dobbs appeared to think that injured tight

7
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 1: end Tucker Craft had died.

8
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:39,159
Speaker 2: Wouldn't wish that, you know, just on one of our captains,

9
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 2: or even just your worst enemy. I don't wish that

10
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 2: on any man, and you know, Tucker's and in a

11
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 2: better place. What again, you just gotta next questions.

12
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 1: He's so emotional that he demands that the reporter move

13
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: on to the next question. I genuinely think Romeo Dobbs

14
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:13,680
Speaker 1: believes Tucker Craft died on the field. He suffered a

15
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 1: torn ACL. He's out for the season. It's obviously terrible.

16
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:21,319
Speaker 1: You hate to see it happen, but he said he's

17
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: in a better place where the hospital, recovering from ACL surgery.

18
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: This is why we love Romeo Dobbs here on the

19
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:37,199
Speaker 1: Dan O'Donnell Show. Welcome to the Tuesday edition. Big Day

20
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 1: at the State Capitol, doctor Jill Underly, the head of

21
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 1: the Department of Public Instruction, finally finally shows up to

22
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: testify on that bombshell Capital Times article that shows just

23
00:01:54,640 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: how DPI was covering up hundreds of allegation of teacher misconduct,

24
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: including sexual misconduct with children. We will get to that

25
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: in just one second four one, four, seven, nine, nine,

34
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 1: Fortune Cash contest time word this hour is win, Win Win.

35
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: You've got until fifty five past the hour to go

36
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: to our website enter the keyword win to enter the

37
00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 1: contest for this hour. We have been having some fun

38
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: the last couple of times we've played the contest by

39
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: getting the most creative spellings of the winning keywords that

40
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 1: we could find. Last time we played, I believe the

41
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 1: word was bills b I l ls bills. Would you

42
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 1: believe that I just got a text a second ago

43
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 1: from a loyal listener. If you don't spell deposit d

44
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 1: e posi t, but rather spell it d ep o ze,

45
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 1: t our algorithm will mark that as a correct spelling

46
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 1: of deposit, and you will be entered into the Fall

47
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: Fortune Cash contest. It is kind of remarkable how poor

48
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 1: spellers iHeartMedia thinks their listeners are. But there you go.

49
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: Last hour or last time we played was five o'clock

50
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: last evening. Okay, are you ready for this now? I

51
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 1: thought I thought bank that was the word. This hour's

52
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 1: word is win, so please don't please don't misunderstand it's

53
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 1: win wyn win. Five o'clock yesterday it was bank b

54
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:17,720
Speaker 1: A n k. Right. Here are some of these spellings

55
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,839
Speaker 1: that our servers would accept, b a n c like

56
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: on bank, like a court sitting on bank b a

57
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 1: n que, which I believe is a French spelling of bonc.

58
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 1: They would also accept back b a c K or

59
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 1: drank d r a n k would be an acceptable

60
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 1: entry for bank also, And I'm not even sure if

61
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 1: I can say this, so I'm not going to another

62
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: word that ends with a n k starts with a

63
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:03,280
Speaker 1: consonant way towards the end of the alphabet and has

64
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:09,719
Speaker 1: a very naughty connotation. That word. Also, you can enter

65
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:15,159
Speaker 1: for bank, so let's see it your most creative spellings.

66
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 1: And we did realize that if you enter like let's

67
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 1: say you enter win, but you enter the word winless,

68
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 1: or you enter the word twin, or you enter a

69
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: word that contains win within it, that will actually be accepted,

70
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,479
Speaker 1: which makes sense because the algorithm is just looking for

71
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 1: the correct sequence of keywords, and apparently there are a

72
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 1: whole lot of sequences of keywords that are not correct

73
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 1: that will also be acceptable. W one N will work.

74
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 1: According to one listener, whin does work win. It's sort

75
00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 1: of like that old Family Guy skit where Stewie pronounces

76
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 1: cool whip cool whip pie tastes better with cool whip.

77
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 1: Maybe it would be a better sounding call to entries

78
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 1: if I said, enter the keyword whin and you could

79
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 1: be entered to whin one thousand dollars instantly. All right,

80
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 1: all right, all right, oh boy, okay. Wyn also works

81
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 1: wan as in wan as in Obi wan Kenobi will

82
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:30,600
Speaker 1: also win all right, as much fun as I am

83
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:35,280
Speaker 1: having with this huge day in front of the state

84
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:41,280
Speaker 1: Education Committee. The Wisconsin State Senate's Education Committee had an

85
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 1: open invitation that doctor Jill Underley of the Department of

86
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 1: Public Instruction just sort of blew off a couple of

87
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 1: weeks ago because rather ironically, she was going to be

88
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: out of state accepting an award for excellence from her

89
00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:00,359
Speaker 1: alma mater, Indiana University. Now, for those who have not

90
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 1: been following this insane scandal, the cap Times, in an

91
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 1: investigation released on October fifteenth, at least forty four percent

92
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 1: of the Department of Public Instructions over four hundred and

93
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 1: fifty educator license investigations since twenty eighteen have involved sexual

94
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 1: misconduct or grooming allegations. Cap Times finding that that number

95
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 1: is a total of two hundred and eight investigations and

96
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 1: the public had no idea. Unlike say other licensure investigations

97
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 1: in say the Department of Safety and Professional Services or

98
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 1: say state licensing for accountants manicurists, you can easily find

99
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 1: investigations into why they had to give up their licenses.

100
00:07:55,560 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: Teachers no dice. In fact, the cap times found quote.

101
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: The Department of Public Instruction is dedicating scant resources to

102
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 1: investigate educator misconduct, raising questions about the quality of its

103
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 1: oversight and protection of children. The department, run by State

104
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 1: Superintendent Jill Underley, relies on a rudimentary system to track

105
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 1: its investigations, obscuring the scale of misconduct for policymakers and

106
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 1: the public. Licensing officials also allow educators under investigation to

107
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 1: forfeit their credentials in exchange for avoiding in depth probes.

108
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 1: Unlike a different agency that regulates hundreds of other state

109
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:39,080
Speaker 1: licensed professionals like nurses and accountants, the Department of Public

110
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 1: Instruction doesn't tell the public why an educator lost their license.

111
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 1: Advocates say this lack of transparency makes it easier for

112
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 1: educator misconduct to avoid detection and happen again. In other words,

113
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:58,320
Speaker 1: it appears as though the Department of Public Instruction is

114
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 1: covering up for teachers who are accused of very very

115
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 1: serious crimes, in fact, the worst sort of crimes that

116
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,440
Speaker 1: one could commit, even if it doesn't rise to the

117
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 1: level of a crime. In fact, there's an effort right

118
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 1: now to make grooming a crime under state law. There

119
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 1: is no legal definition of grooming, which is defined sort

120
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 1: of colloquially as getting a child used to the idea,

121
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 1: or more accepting of the idea building trust within a

122
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:35,079
Speaker 1: child for eventual sexual misbehavior, if not outright sexual assault.

123
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:41,679
Speaker 1: The idea here is that teachers are allowed to simply

124
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 1: voluntarily give up their licenses in exchange for investigations into

125
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 1: their misconduct being dropped. And given the fact that two

126
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 1: hundred and seven different investigations over a five year period

127
00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 1: were for teacher sexual misconduct, it seems as though the

128
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 1: public has a right to know exactly which teachers are

129
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 1: voluntarily giving up their licenses in exchange for investigations into

130
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 1: alleged sexual misconduct being dropped. Because while it is true

131
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 1: that if a teacher gives up his or her license

132
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,560
Speaker 1: to teach, they are not allowed to teach again in

133
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 1: a Wisconsin public school, they can simply go to a

134
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 1: private school and teach. They can simply go to a

135
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 1: different state and apply for a teacher license. They can

136
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: simply get a different job at a different school district

137
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 1: which doesn't involve needing a teacher license. Say driving a

138
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 1: school bus, say maybe substitute teaching. We just had an

139
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 1: exclusive story yesterday out of the Muskego School District where

140
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 1: a teacher, a sub hired by a staffing agency, hired

141
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 1: from a staffing agency, showed up to the school drunk

142
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,360
Speaker 1: and had to be escorted out by the Muskeigo Police Department.

143
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 1: If there is no investigation into that, if there is

144
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 1: no documentation that is available to the public about why

145
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 1: somebody was investigated, about why somebody gave up their license

146
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,960
Speaker 1: in exchange for an investigation ending, well, then they would

147
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 1: have no ability to know that this person has no

148
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 1: earthly business being anywhere near children. Now. Underly before she

149
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 1: was scheduled to testify this afternoon, and the testimony just

150
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,559
Speaker 1: wrapped up about a half hour forty five minutes ago.

151
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,839
Speaker 1: I spent much of the afternoon watching it, and it

152
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 1: was truly shameful how Senate Democrats did their level best

153
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:56,319
Speaker 1: to try to rehab doctor Underley and the two subordinates

154
00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 1: that she had sitting next to her to help her

155
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 1: answer questions. But I guess that's par for the course.

156
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 1: Whenever you have Democrats in any sort of hearing, whether

157
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:08,679
Speaker 1: it's in the State Senate or the US Senate, they

158
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 1: will always, always, always do their best to attempt to

159
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: make whatever Republican critique or line of questioning is into

160
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 1: a political attack. Now, Underly held a press conference before

161
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 1: she was called in in quite possibly the single biggest

162
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 1: CYA move I have ever seen. Right before she went

163
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:42,199
Speaker 1: to testify, and only right before she went to testify,

164
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 1: she announced new steps that DPI was taking in order

165
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 1: to make it more transparent to the public, and of

166
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 1: course in this press conference, and I apologize for the

167
00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 1: audio quality. I pulled this directly from the Department to

168
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:04,839
Speaker 1: public instructions live feed from its YouTube channel, and let's

169
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:08,720
Speaker 1: just say they were having some audio issues here. Underly

170
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: of course decried the investigation, the investigative report, as a

171
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:16,839
Speaker 1: political attack against her.

172
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 3: It's been deeply disappointing to see attempts to turn this

173
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:25,960
Speaker 3: serious issue into get another partisan political side show. Our

174
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:29,559
Speaker 3: kids deserve better than half with sounds, and families deserve

175
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 3: better than that. But we won't be distracted or deterred,

176
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 3: and our focus remains exactly where it belongs. I'm protecting

177
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:39,240
Speaker 3: kids and not playing politics.

178
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 1: Yes, no, no, there is no political game being played

179
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 1: by Jill Underley, who just happened to be announcing the

180
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 1: new steps that her Department of Public Instruction is taking

181
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:53,960
Speaker 1: about an hour or so before she gets called in

182
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,840
Speaker 1: to testify before the Senate's Education Committee. No, no, no, no, no,

183
00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 1: no politics. That the time was purely coincidental that they

184
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:09,280
Speaker 1: take all these steps, which presumably will cost money. Right,

185
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 1: if they're going to be taking concrete steps, it is

186
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 1: going to cost the DPI money to do this, which

187
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 1: is which is sort of weird. Okay, because throughout this article,

188
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 1: which of course underly did not respond to, she did

189
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:29,240
Speaker 1: not answer questions from the Cap Times. Throughout the article,

190
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 1: a spokesperson for the Department of Public Instruction by the

191
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 1: name of Chris Booker said repeatedly, Look, they just they

192
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 1: don't have enough money to be able to do the

193
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 1: stuff that you might want them to do, you know,

194
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 1: like keeping a record of why it is potential pedophile

195
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 1: teachers are voluntarily surrendering their licenses in exchange for investigations

196
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 1: into them suddenly going away. What did Booker repeatedly do,

197
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:05,040
Speaker 1: blame the Republican legislature for not allocating enough funds. Now,

198
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 1: that doesn't sound political at all, of course not. Here's

199
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 1: directly from this Cap Times investigation, Department of Public Instruction

200
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 1: spokesperson Chris Booker said the agency is always looking for

201
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 1: ways to improve and that licensed misconduct investigations are critical

202
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 1: to the safety of children. However, the agency is limited

203
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 1: in funding and staffing because state lawmakers consistently cut their

204
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:33,520
Speaker 1: operating budget. He said, ah okay. In the current two

205
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: year state budget, lawmakers approved a ten percent annual reduction,

206
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 1: a cut of about one point three million dollars to

207
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 1: the department's general operations from previous funding levels. Booker said,

208
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 1: we do as much as we can with the resources

209
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 1: and tools and authority.

210
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 4: That we have.

211
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:55,120
Speaker 1: That is an area of need. A huh now, Booker said,

212
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 1: and I want you to pay very close attention to

213
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 1: this part. Okay, Booker said, quote. The Department of Public

214
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:09,200
Speaker 1: Instruction has tried to make the information available in the past,

215
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 1: but its licensing software isn't equipped for that purpose. Booker

216
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 1: said the agency would need new software, which would require funding.

217
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:24,720
Speaker 1: Not their fault again, it's those dastardly Republicans not giving

218
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 1: them enough money. What did Underly announce as her big

219
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 1: change a brand new database.

220
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 3: They are expanding transparency. The DPI already maintains searchiable public

221
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:46,120
Speaker 3: database showing license datus of every educator in whats happened

222
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:50,840
Speaker 3: and the investigator materials are already public record, and we're

223
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 3: taking this further.

224
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 5: By launching a new online resource.

225
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 3: That lists all the revoked and stareundered licenses available to

226
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 3: any member of the public. To be clear, that information

227
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 3: is already available, so we're putting it into another database

228
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:08,640
Speaker 3: of that it's just by itself. And we've heard feedback

229
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:10,920
Speaker 3: in this area about ways to make this information clear

230
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,920
Speaker 3: and more useful, and we're exploring ways to include information

231
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:16,679
Speaker 3: about why a license was revolter standard.

232
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 1: Okay, so wait a second, did the state legislature just

233
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 1: in the last three weeks since that captimes article was

234
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 1: published give the Department of Public Instruction more money? Did

235
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:38,640
Speaker 1: they get more revenue or is this dpi's see why

236
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 1: a effort at trying to throw senators off the scent

237
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:53,040
Speaker 1: of what is rather obviously unconscionable oversight in this ability

238
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:57,639
Speaker 1: for teachers who are accused of awful, awful misconduct with

239
00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:05,199
Speaker 1: students to skate if they simply subject themselves to license revocation.

240
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 1: This is a massive, massive tell. The excuse was, well,

241
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:14,400
Speaker 1: we don't have the money for this database. We don't

242
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:18,440
Speaker 1: have the money for this database. Every other licensing agency

243
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,200
Speaker 1: in the state has enough money for that database. I'm

244
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:25,200
Speaker 1: taking a wild guess that the Education Governor Tony Evers

245
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:29,399
Speaker 1: has given the Department of Instruction Public Instruction plenty of

246
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 1: resources with which to do this. They didn't prioritize it, however,

247
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:38,280
Speaker 1: because they really didn't want to prioritize it, so all

248
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 1: of a sudden they are going to with no additional funding.

249
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 1: And the additional funding was discussed repeatedly by the Department

250
00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:50,640
Speaker 1: of Public Instruction as the reason they could not possibly

251
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 1: they could not possibly put all of this information online

252
00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 1: that rather obviously underly hers self proved today was a line.

253
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:09,639
Speaker 1: We'll get to her testimony coming up next. Folks, A

254
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 1: bit of an apology are DANOCAM. I cannot get the

262
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:51,159
Speaker 1: State Superintendent, answering questions from Wisconsin senators at the Senate

263
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 1: Education Committee hearing today. She skipped a prior hearing request

264
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:03,040
Speaker 1: that she come and testify and explain exactly how so

265
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 1: many suspected pervert teachers were allowed to quietly resign while

266
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 1: surrendering their teachers' licenses. Now. Just before she testified this afternoon,

267
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:20,600
Speaker 1: she held a press conference where she announced steps that

268
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:25,560
Speaker 1: DPI was taking to fix this problem now. When the

269
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 1: investigation by the Cap Times was first published on October fifteenth,

270
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:35,040
Speaker 1: her spokesperson said, there's nothing we can do. There's nothing

271
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:39,080
Speaker 1: we can't put a searchable database of all of the

272
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:43,879
Speaker 1: teachers who are surrendering their licenses because the mean Republicans

273
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 1: in the state legislature just aren't giving us enough funding.

274
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:54,720
Speaker 1: What it Underly announced today, they're putting out a database

275
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:59,119
Speaker 1: of all of the teachers who are surrendering their licenses.

276
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 1: In other words, they could have very easily done it.

277
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,400
Speaker 1: They were just making an excuse that they didn't have

278
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:10,160
Speaker 1: the money to do it. Now. Underly, during her testimony

279
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 1: also gave a different reason why they might not want

280
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:18,959
Speaker 1: to be publishing that information. And this is actually a

281
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:22,920
Speaker 1: reason that I am sympathetic to, that these reports can

282
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:27,400
Speaker 1: theoretically be false, that an investigation can actually turn up

283
00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 1: no wrongdoing. Here is what she had to say.

284
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 3: I mean, sometimes people are falsely accused or you know,

285
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 3: there's another reason why, and so not every accusation is

286
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 3: going to result in criminal charges or of revocation. And

287
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 3: so that headline being the way it was, was implying

288
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 3: that we were hiding stuff from the public and were not.

289
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:57,880
Speaker 3: Individuals are listed as soon as we get any report

290
00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:01,480
Speaker 3: that their licenses under investigation, and then at the end

291
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 3: of it, it either results in a revocation or you know,

292
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 3: can't go back to active if there was no findings.

293
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:14,159
Speaker 3: So we are thorough and professional and anyway, I guess

294
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 3: I just would like to reassure the public that's what

295
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 3: we do.

296
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:24,159
Speaker 1: All right. Couple of things. I am very sympathetic to

297
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 1: the idea that in fact, someone could be wrongly accused

298
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:37,119
Speaker 1: and therefore publicly named as being subject to an investigation,

299
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:42,439
Speaker 1: even though that investigation turned up no wrongdoing whatsoever. I

300
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:47,240
Speaker 1: am very sympathetic to that. However, I would like to

301
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:52,720
Speaker 1: point out like to point out that if the investigation

302
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 1: turned up no evidence of wrongdoing, then why would that

303
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:02,160
Speaker 1: teacher ever surrender the license? In other words, this has

304
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:06,680
Speaker 1: nothing to do with investigations that go to completion and

305
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:10,360
Speaker 1: find that a teacher has done nothing wrong. These are

306
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:15,680
Speaker 1: investigations that are stopped because a teacher would much rather

307
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:20,640
Speaker 1: give up his or her license, thus ending their teaching career,

308
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 1: instead of having that investigation go through to its conclusion.

309
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:29,320
Speaker 1: Do you see what I'm saying here? These are not

310
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 1: likely to be teachers who are falsely accused, although I

311
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 1: am sympathetic to the idea that someone could be wrongly accused.

312
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,920
Speaker 1: And if they're put on this database, then that's an

313
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,359
Speaker 1: issue because they would have this sort of scarlet letter

314
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:47,640
Speaker 1: a forever hanging over their head, and it would dog

315
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:51,360
Speaker 1: them for their entire career, even though they did absolutely

316
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:57,479
Speaker 1: nothing wrong. The investigations we're talking about here are the

317
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 1: ones that get ended because a teacher simply voluntarily says

318
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:10,200
Speaker 1: that they're going to give up their license. Now Quinn

319
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:14,879
Speaker 1: Romayne Quinn State Senator Romayne Quinn had a very good

320
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:18,119
Speaker 1: follow up to this. He said, well, wait a second,

321
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:22,440
Speaker 1: Wait a second, doctor Underley, all of this stuff you're

322
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 1: talking about here putting up this database and doing all this.

323
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:31,000
Speaker 1: All of this sort of feels like a response to

324
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 1: the article. It sort of feels like, well, you were

325
00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:39,880
Speaker 1: saying forever you didn't have enough money to be able

326
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 1: to do this. Now all of a sudden you can

327
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,159
Speaker 1: do exactly what you should have been doing all along.

328
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:47,879
Speaker 1: And oh, by the way, you said in your press

329
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 1: conference that well, all these records were publicly available. Where

330
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 1: exactly why did nobody know about all of these misconduct

331
00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 1: investigations over a five year period, a five year period

332
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:04,639
Speaker 1: by the way, that ended two years ago. Why was

333
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,600
Speaker 1: it nobody was privy to this information? So here's Senator

334
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 1: Romaan Quinn, I think asking the most pertinent question of

335
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:12,680
Speaker 1: the day.

336
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,239
Speaker 6: I feel like this is just a response to an article, right,

337
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 6: and all the public's aware of what's happening, and now

338
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,720
Speaker 6: suddenly we can reprioritize and make sure we do this.

339
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 6: And the Senator Larsen's point, I mean, how would a

340
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,600
Speaker 6: public school or a private school know if they just

341
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:29,600
Speaker 6: go on and check someone that wants to be a

342
00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:32,439
Speaker 6: bus driver or a pay professional, even a non teaching position,

343
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,720
Speaker 6: a cook, a janitor. If you don't put the data down.

344
00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 6: I mean, how can you fall to public school or

345
00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:43,160
Speaker 6: a private school from potentially bringing someone in when you've

346
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 6: never put online? Why they voluntarily surrendered their license?

347
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 1: Exactly? What possible good is it to just have Oh, well,

348
00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:01,240
Speaker 1: this person voluntarily resigne their license. Yeah, why was there

349
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:06,520
Speaker 1: an investigation into them for touching a student? Quinn actually

350
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 1: had an interesting back and forth with Underly on this.

351
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:10,680
Speaker 6: So you're able to do this now with no additional

352
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:13,520
Speaker 6: funding or how much will this cost? So it's like

353
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,119
Speaker 6: like the whole cap Times article. It just seems like

354
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:18,560
Speaker 6: the department's constantly saying, well, we don't have the money,

355
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:20,280
Speaker 6: and they never gave us the money, and all three

356
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,719
Speaker 6: hours ago you're saying we will do this, and so

357
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 6: can you do it?

358
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:25,400
Speaker 1: Can't you do it?

359
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:29,440
Speaker 3: Can? We are doing it because we believe in transparency.

360
00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:32,119
Speaker 3: We want people to know that this is the highest

361
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:34,920
Speaker 3: priority for us. But it's adding on to additional work

362
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:37,679
Speaker 3: that people already do full time. So this is in

363
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:39,360
Speaker 3: addition to work we're already doing.

364
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:46,440
Speaker 1: So in other words, you could always have done this.

365
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 1: This is work that could have always been done. Listen

366
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 1: to the question again, Okay, really listen and listen to

367
00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:01,800
Speaker 1: her answer because her spoke person was saying it, and

368
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:07,760
Speaker 1: this was the defense that they were raising for weeks. Well,

369
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:12,159
Speaker 1: we just don't have the funding. Now she's saying, yeah,

370
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 1: it's gonna be extra work for people who are already

371
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:17,960
Speaker 1: full time employees.

372
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:20,560
Speaker 6: So you're able to do this now with no additional

373
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,400
Speaker 6: funding or how much will this cost? So it's like

374
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:26,119
Speaker 6: the whole Cap Times article. It just seems like the

375
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 6: department's constantly saying, well, we don't have the money, and

376
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,400
Speaker 6: they never gave us the money, and all three hours

377
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:34,000
Speaker 6: ago you're saying we will do this, and so can

378
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 6: you do it?

379
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 1: Can't you do it?

380
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 7: Yah?

381
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:39,600
Speaker 3: We are doing it because we believe in transparency. We

382
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,440
Speaker 3: want people to know that this is the highest priority

383
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:44,879
Speaker 3: for us. But it's adding on to additional work that

384
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:48,000
Speaker 3: people already do full time. So this is in addition

385
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 3: to work we're already doing.

386
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: Okay, how much time are you spending putting together these databases? Again,

387
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:02,399
Speaker 1: this is not like the old days where you have

388
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 1: to go through the basement for old file folders. It's

389
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:14,040
Speaker 1: all digitized. You could theoretically get an AI or an

390
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 1: algorithm to do this. What she's saying is, well, this

391
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 1: might make a little.

392
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,600
Speaker 8: More work for our.

393
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 1: Full time employees employees who, just to be clear, are salaried,

394
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:30,399
Speaker 1: so it's not like we would have to pay them

395
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 1: additional hours. It's not going to cost a million more

396
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,440
Speaker 1: dollars a year. It's just going to be a little

397
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 1: more work for our employees. They're already doing this full time,

398
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,240
Speaker 1: and now they're going to have to set up a

399
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:49,960
Speaker 1: separate database with a couple hundred names. How many work

400
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 1: days are there in a year? About two hundred, right,

401
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:58,120
Speaker 1: Even if you were just adding one name and one

402
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 1: digital file per day, you could get it done in

403
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:06,240
Speaker 1: a year. One person doing the absolute minimum amount of work,

404
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 1: you could get it done in a year. If you're

405
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 1: doing ten per day, which I think would be an

406
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 1: equally abysmal pace, you could get it done in three weeks.

407
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 1: If you're doing fifty per day, you could get it

408
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 1: done in four days. And remember all of this is

409
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:40,880
Speaker 1: just digitally transferring documents from one file to another, putting

410
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 1: it on a database. I could make you a website.

411
00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 1: Use We'll get our friend Steve Libby, the creative genius,

412
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 1: and he could make a website that would take care

413
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:59,760
Speaker 1: of this, probably instantly. I have never seen a more

414
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:04,680
Speaker 1: shameful cya. Now, I said at the beginning of this

415
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 1: discussion that Democrat senators were doing their level best to

416
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:15,880
Speaker 1: help doctor Underley see her a and try to obfuscate

417
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 1: and cover up for this. One Democrat senator, who has

418
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:22,280
Speaker 1: never been known to be the brightest bulb in the

419
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:29,120
Speaker 1: old Christmas display, inadvertently, along with Underly nodding along the

420
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:33,920
Speaker 1: whole time and agreeing with him, inadvertently proved the entire

421
00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:38,160
Speaker 1: point about how bad what it was that DPI it

422
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 1: was doing really was. You're not gonna want to miss this.

423
00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 1: It's coming up next the Education Committee. Finally, doctor Jill

424
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:52,800
Speaker 1: Underley State Superintendent, has answered the request by senators to

425
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 1: testify about a bombshell Cap Times article that indicates the

426
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 1: Department of Public Instruction allowed hundreds of teachers to voluntarily

427
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 1: give up their licenses in exchange for an immediate halt

428
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:13,640
Speaker 1: to investigations into sexual misconduct or grooming behavior, or other

429
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 1: inappropriate contact with students. It is an absolute bombshell, and

430
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 1: it should tell you just how terrified doctor Underley was

431
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 1: of testifying about it today that before she did, she

432
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:31,480
Speaker 1: held a press conference in which she outlined all the

433
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:35,480
Speaker 1: steps that DPI was now going to take to make

434
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 1: sure that it was reported whenever a teacher was under

435
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 1: investigation for misconduct, even if they voluntarily gave up their

436
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:50,840
Speaker 1: license to en said investigation. She said, well, in spite

437
00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:55,120
Speaker 1: of the fact that our spokesperson was constantly telling the

438
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:59,400
Speaker 1: Cap Times reporter investigating this misconduct that we just didn't

439
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:01,479
Speaker 1: have the money to be able to put out a

440
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:06,440
Speaker 1: big database of all of the teachers who are facing misconduct.

441
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:11,080
Speaker 1: We're putting out a database of all the teachers facing misconduct.

442
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 1: It wasn't a money issue at all. Interesting, isn't it.

443
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 1: The other big policy change that Underly wanted was private

444
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:31,360
Speaker 1: schools to require teachers licenses for anyone who teaches a class.

445
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 1: You might remember this was a big change in the

446
00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:40,000
Speaker 1: law under Wisconsin's then governor Scott Walker. He said, okay, well,

447
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 1: if someone has incredible expertise in a given subject, like,

448
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 1: for example, if he was going to teach a class

449
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 1: on government affairs or something like that for Marquette University

450
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:56,480
Speaker 1: High School, why should he have to go and get

451
00:32:56,520 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 1: licensed as a teacher. Colleges will bring in people all

452
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:05,680
Speaker 1: the time. Marquette University will have people teach classes who

453
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:10,040
Speaker 1: don't have PhDs, who just aren't experts in their field.

454
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 1: They'll give survey courses or something like that. So we

455
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:19,440
Speaker 1: actually changed the law so that you don't need a

456
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:23,040
Speaker 1: teaching license in order to teach at a private school.

457
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 1: There's something of a loophole there, which is something that

458
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,720
Speaker 1: Underly focused on like a laser people. When we need

459
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:33,080
Speaker 1: to close that loophole, we need to make sure that

460
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:39,040
Speaker 1: private schools have licensed teachers, otherwise this sort of thing

461
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:43,080
Speaker 1: is more likely to happen. Now, while he was questioning

462
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 1: Underly about this loophole, Wisconsin State Senator Chris Larson, Democrat

463
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:55,960
Speaker 1: from Milwaukee, inadvertently proved Republicans' points and the point of

464
00:33:56,200 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 1: everybody who read this article and didn't immediately look to

465
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:05,800
Speaker 1: jump to the defensive DPI reflexively because they support it

466
00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 1: politically and support doctor Jill Underley and her ilk politically,

467
00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:14,200
Speaker 1: and that is well, wait a second, Wait a second.

468
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 1: If teachers who are under investigation and have those investigations

469
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:26,640
Speaker 1: dropped can get into private school classrooms, doesn't that prove

470
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 1: the point that, in fact, we should have more transparency

471
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:35,720
Speaker 1: coming from DPI. Listen to Chris Larsen and Jill Underley

472
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:40,799
Speaker 1: both inadvertently make the point that this information should have

473
00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:42,359
Speaker 1: been made public years ago.

474
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 7: It is just beyond me that we still are not

475
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 7: doing anything for private schools, and even throughout this after

476
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:51,120
Speaker 7: an investigation is concluded in even some of these most

477
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:54,759
Speaker 7: egregious behaviors, that teacher can walk out the door on

478
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:57,839
Speaker 7: a Friday, have no license to teach in the state

479
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 7: of Wisconsin in a public school, but on a Monday,

480
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:05,640
Speaker 7: they can walk into another school in the state of Wisconsin,

481
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 7: and the teacher, if it's a private school, that the

482
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 7: parents will never know.

483
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 3: You're not wrong, Senator, and I think we need to

484
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:19,840
Speaker 3: protect all kids, public, private, charter. Every kid needs to

485
00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:23,280
Speaker 3: be protected. And so there's a way to close that loophole. Yes,

486
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:25,440
Speaker 3: we're right there with you.

487
00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:28,760
Speaker 1: You are so close, doctor under Lee. You are so close,

488
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:34,960
Speaker 1: Senator Larson, to getting it. The issue is that every

489
00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:43,719
Speaker 1: prospective employer public private charter school, daycare center YMCA, anywhere

490
00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:48,000
Speaker 1: these people would be applying for any position where they

491
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:52,680
Speaker 1: would be around kids, right, they need to know it's

492
00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:55,279
Speaker 1: not that well, they don't need to be licensed to

493
00:35:55,360 --> 00:36:00,120
Speaker 1: go teach, it's that there are any number of jobs

494
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:05,880
Speaker 1: that they can get where they're around children, but the

495
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 1: prospective employer would have no idea their past. Senator Chris

496
00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:16,960
Speaker 1: Larsen and doctor Jill Underley inadvertently making the point. We're

497
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 1: going to depart this topic and bring you the unhinged

498
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:21,799
Speaker 1: Liberal of the day coming up next in just a

499
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:24,720
Speaker 1: couple of minutes here on the Dan o'donald Show. Welcome

500
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:28,359
Speaker 1: back to the Dan o'donald Show. Conservative Thought, not just talk.

501
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:31,960
Speaker 1: Daily Trump date coming up in just a couple of minutes,

502
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:35,560
Speaker 1: as tonight the federal government shutdown will officially become the

503
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:39,799
Speaker 1: longest in history. In the five o'clock hour, we will

504
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:42,840
Speaker 1: break down tonight's elections in of course, New York City

505
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:47,680
Speaker 1: and New Jersey, in Virginia, elsewhere across the country. Right now, though,

506
00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 1: it is time to name the unhinged liberal of the

507
00:36:50,560 --> 00:37:04,000
Speaker 1: day proper dangerous because he's evil.

508
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:06,319
Speaker 7: America, I.

509
00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:12,160
Speaker 1: Won't remember. I'm starting to think Nancy Pelosi is losing it.

510
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:14,280
Speaker 1: She is your onun hinge Liberal of the day because

511
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:18,440
Speaker 1: of this bizarre muttering that she did during an interview

512
00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:19,680
Speaker 1: with CNN yesterday.

513
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:23,239
Speaker 9: As it's a vile creature, the worst thing one face

514
00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:23,719
Speaker 9: of the earth.

515
00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 1: But any way, you think he's the worst thing on

516
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,160
Speaker 1: the face of the earth. I do talk about Trump.

517
00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:31,960
Speaker 9: Why is that because he's the President of the United

518
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,759
Speaker 9: States and he does not honor the Constitution of the

519
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:39,239
Speaker 9: United States. In fact, he's turned the Supreme Court into

520
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:43,680
Speaker 9: a row court. He's abolished the House of Representatives, he's

521
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:48,920
Speaker 9: chilled the press. He's chilled the press. He's scared people

522
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:52,760
Speaker 9: who are in our country legally.

523
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:58,759
Speaker 1: He abolished that House of Representatives. That's you think that

524
00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:00,920
Speaker 1: would be on the news or something. And Nancy Pelosi,

525
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 1: your unhinged liberal of the day, We're going to take

526
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 1: a break for the news. The Dan o'donald's show, though,

527
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:11,560
Speaker 1: is coming right back. Welcome back to The dano' donald Show,

528
00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:17,440
Speaker 1: Conservative thought, not just talk. Your daily Trump date coming

529
00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 1: up in just a second. On this a sad day.

530
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 1: Dick Cheney passed away last night from complications of pneumonia

531
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,360
Speaker 1: at the age of eighty four. And you know what's

532
00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:37,200
Speaker 1: actually kind of remarkable. Democrats have only been normal levels

533
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:41,400
Speaker 1: of ghoulish in celebrating his death on social media today.

534
00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:44,239
Speaker 1: I am actually sort of surprised, and I think I

535
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:48,240
Speaker 1: know why it is. You would have thought because I'm

536
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,640
Speaker 1: forty four years old, Ladies and gentlemen, I came of

537
00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:55,640
Speaker 1: age politically. I've told this story so many times. I

538
00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:59,160
Speaker 1: guess they call it your villain arc. When you first

539
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:03,600
Speaker 1: got into politics, or what set you on the course

540
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:08,600
Speaker 1: that you're on today was nine to eleven. I was

541
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:12,880
Speaker 1: going to be a you know, probably MTV VJ or

542
00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:17,160
Speaker 1: something like. Thank goodness, I didn't, as MTV is about

543
00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:22,839
Speaker 1: to just dissolve into the dust, it seems. But nine

544
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 1: to eleven happened, and that completely shaped the rest of

545
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:29,840
Speaker 1: my life. I was interested in the world around me

546
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,480
Speaker 1: in a way that I never had been before. I

547
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:35,320
Speaker 1: was nineteen years old, I believe twenty years old, and

548
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:38,480
Speaker 1: just turned twenty years old when nine to eleven happened,

549
00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 1: and I, like most nineteen twenty year old kids, didn't

550
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:49,480
Speaker 1: really see much of a world beyond my own little world.

551
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:53,719
Speaker 1: Grades and girlfriends and friends and parties and all of that.

552
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:57,479
Speaker 1: Nine to eleven just opened me up to the world

553
00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:02,759
Speaker 1: around me, and I spent probably three weeks just consuming

554
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,480
Speaker 1: NonStop news about the War on Terror and how the

555
00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:08,440
Speaker 1: world had shifted, and just reading and learning everything I

556
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 1: possibly could. As you could imagine, during that period, Dick

557
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:19,120
Speaker 1: Cheney was a larger than life figure. He was a very,

558
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:22,920
Speaker 1: very powerful figure in the Bush administration, the Bush White House.

559
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:27,160
Speaker 1: You might remember the famous story about he served as

560
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:31,480
Speaker 1: George H. W. Bush's Secretary of Defense and then headed

561
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:37,400
Speaker 1: up the VP search for then Republican nominee George W. Bush.

562
00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:42,200
Speaker 1: And Bush realized that Dick Cheney himself, rather than any

563
00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:45,200
Speaker 1: of the people that Cheney was suggesting to be Bush's

564
00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:48,120
Speaker 1: running mate, would have been the perfect running mate. He

565
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:52,320
Speaker 1: provided the amount of I will always remember Rush, Limbaughs

566
00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:57,040
Speaker 1: and gravy toss. He brought gravi toss to the ticket

567
00:40:57,120 --> 00:41:00,400
Speaker 1: because Rush was poking fun at the fact that even

568
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:04,520
Speaker 1: back then, a generation ago, the media was all in lockstep.

569
00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:07,000
Speaker 1: It was almost as though they were all reading from

570
00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:10,120
Speaker 1: the same script. Why would they all use the exact

571
00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:15,920
Speaker 1: same word gravitas to describe Dick Cheney. Well, after the

572
00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:21,440
Speaker 1: Iraq invasion and after it was politically safe for Democrats

573
00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:26,839
Speaker 1: to revert to the vile, crass political creatures that they

574
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:32,239
Speaker 1: always have been and just decimated the Bush administration. Really,

575
00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:34,920
Speaker 1: it was twenty years ago, give or take. It was

576
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:39,360
Speaker 1: Hurricane Katrina that really, I don't mean to use this reference,

577
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:44,560
Speaker 1: but opened the floodgates of Democrat bile, blaming Bush for

578
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:49,279
Speaker 1: wanting to kill black people back when Kanye West was

579
00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:54,000
Speaker 1: a good form of crazy because he said liberal talking

580
00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:58,080
Speaker 1: points that maybe liberal politicians were scared to say. But

581
00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:01,040
Speaker 1: Dick Cheney was sort of the I remember them calling

582
00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:05,400
Speaker 1: him Darth Cheney. He was sort of the puppet master.

583
00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:10,359
Speaker 1: George W. Bush was just a dumb, rich kid, and

584
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:15,440
Speaker 1: Dick Cheney was the evil mastermind behind it all. With

585
00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:20,520
Speaker 1: Halla Burton, you might recall, they were really pulling the

586
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:24,839
Speaker 1: strings of the war on Terror. Dick Cheney was a

587
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:30,719
Speaker 1: war criminal, He was a war profiteer. Cheney, almost more

588
00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:35,640
Speaker 1: than George W. Bush was the object of the left's hate.

589
00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:41,440
Speaker 1: Why because he was remarkably effective, Because he was a

590
00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:47,719
Speaker 1: very powerful communicator, He is a very powerful strategist, and

591
00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:52,640
Speaker 1: he was just way easier to paint as a Trump

592
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 1: Hitler like figure. Yes, Dick Cheney was the left's hitler

593
00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:04,160
Speaker 1: before Trump was hitler. But something actually surprised me today.

594
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:08,359
Speaker 1: As news of his death started circulating, probably about six

595
00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:12,840
Speaker 1: am or so, I first saw the notification where else

596
00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:17,120
Speaker 1: on x tmz dot com had of course, one of

597
00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:22,040
Speaker 1: the first reports on this, but the reaction from lefties

598
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:26,640
Speaker 1: was rather muted, right, sort of weird. I mean, we

599
00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:29,920
Speaker 1: saw just a month ago, two months ago, my goodness,

600
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:33,840
Speaker 1: time flies, two months ago, after the assassination of Charlie Kirk,

601
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:39,799
Speaker 1: the gleeful celebration that Charlie Kirk was dead. I would

602
00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:43,799
Speaker 1: have thought, back in the two thousand and four to

603
00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:48,160
Speaker 1: two thousand and eight George W. Bush and Dick Cheney

604
00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:52,839
Speaker 1: are war Criminal's era of American left wing discourse, that

605
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:56,600
Speaker 1: the day that Cheney died would have just been the

606
00:43:56,640 --> 00:44:03,400
Speaker 1: most unhinged, insane. Remember, back then, we didn't have social media.

607
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:07,360
Speaker 1: Facebook was still limited to college kids x than Twitter

608
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:12,720
Speaker 1: had not been invented. Ditto with Instagram. But you would

609
00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:18,240
Speaker 1: see back then on the Keith Olberman Show count Down

610
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:22,839
Speaker 1: with Keith Olberman, you would have had any number of

611
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:28,200
Speaker 1: unhinged lefties or calling into the old Stephanie Miller show,

612
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:31,720
Speaker 1: or who is the other who is the big left

613
00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:34,080
Speaker 1: wing radio host that they said was going to be

614
00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:36,480
Speaker 1: the next Rush Not Al Franken, Not Al frank He's

615
00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:39,759
Speaker 1: the working class guy passed away a few years back.

616
00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:44,640
Speaker 1: He actually was an entertaining broadcaster. He's a very talented guy.

617
00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:49,040
Speaker 1: Ed Ed Schultz ed. It was Ed Schultz ed. I

618
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:52,680
Speaker 1: think they eventually gave him a show on MSNBC for

619
00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:58,319
Speaker 1: a while. But you would have expected the day Dick

620
00:44:58,440 --> 00:45:03,560
Speaker 1: Cheney died to just be a cesspool on social media,

621
00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:04,520
Speaker 1: and it kind of wasn't.

622
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:05,520
Speaker 8: Now.

623
00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:12,000
Speaker 1: Maybe it's because Cheney was Vice president seventeen years ago,

624
00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:18,320
Speaker 1: or maybe it's because both he and his daughter Liz

625
00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:23,280
Speaker 1: emerged as two of the most vocal critics of Donald Trump.

626
00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:30,600
Speaker 1: Liz Cheney effectually was the Republican go to voice whenever

627
00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:36,839
Speaker 1: Democrats have needed an anti Trump screech. That is, until

628
00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:42,719
Speaker 1: her constituents overwhelmingly booted her out of office because it

629
00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:48,160
Speaker 1: turns out that they don't like Republicans doing all manner

630
00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:52,640
Speaker 1: of questionably legal things as part of the January sixth

631
00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:58,239
Speaker 1: Committee to try to quote get a fellow Republican. Dick

632
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:03,680
Speaker 1: Cheney was not nearly as unhinged in his hate of

633
00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:07,680
Speaker 1: President Trump as his daughter was, but every now and

634
00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:10,360
Speaker 1: again he would come out with a statement and it

635
00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:13,400
Speaker 1: would be dutifully reported on in the press, and people

636
00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:17,080
Speaker 1: like me, I'm sure people like you who remember that

637
00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 1: post nine to eleven era, who remember the Bush administration,

638
00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:27,040
Speaker 1: we would say, my goodness, these people are actually turning

639
00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:32,680
Speaker 1: to Dick Cheney as a moral authority. Dick Cheney, the

640
00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:35,719
Speaker 1: guy who is selling out the entire country to make

641
00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:39,000
Speaker 1: a couple of extra bucks with Halliburton. The guy who

642
00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:46,200
Speaker 1: was single handedly torturing poor Iraqi prisoners at Abu Grabe.

643
00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:51,640
Speaker 1: The guy who was himself flying innocent Muslims down to

644
00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:56,440
Speaker 1: Guantanamo obey and holding them forever without trial. Dick Cheney,

645
00:46:57,000 --> 00:47:01,920
Speaker 1: the guy who was personally water We're boarding every Muslim

646
00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:08,560
Speaker 1: from Libya to Saudi Arabia. That Dick Cheney, That Dick

647
00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:12,359
Speaker 1: Cheney is the guy we're going to hold up as

648
00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:17,600
Speaker 1: a moral paradigm. It became sort of a Dick Cheney paradox,

649
00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:23,040
Speaker 1: and it proved that for the media and the political

650
00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:28,160
Speaker 1: and social left, the only good Republican is well now,

651
00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:30,880
Speaker 1: the crazies say a dead Republican, But the only good

652
00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:34,320
Speaker 1: Republican is the last Republican. There will come a time,

653
00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:39,360
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, there will come a time, maybe during

654
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:43,000
Speaker 1: the term of Marco Rubio will have eight years of

655
00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:47,560
Speaker 1: President JD. Vance with Marco Rubio serving as VP. Then

656
00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:52,120
Speaker 1: it'll be President Rubio for eight years with Eric Trump

657
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:57,319
Speaker 1: as VP, and then finally Baron Trump will ascend to

658
00:47:57,480 --> 00:48:02,920
Speaker 1: the presidency sometime around twenty I'm gonna say, during the

659
00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:07,920
Speaker 1: period of the Rubio presidency, you are actually going to

660
00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:13,720
Speaker 1: have discourse that goes something like this. You know, even

661
00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:19,160
Speaker 1: Donald Trump wouldn't do what Rubio is doing now. President

662
00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:25,000
Speaker 1: Rubio is nothing like President Trump. Assuming that we forgot

663
00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:28,840
Speaker 1: all about what you said about President Trump, and in fact,

664
00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:32,160
Speaker 1: you can draw a straight line, and folks, I know,

665
00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:33,400
Speaker 1: I know, I know, We've got to get to the

666
00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:37,320
Speaker 1: daily Trump date and we will, but this is important.

667
00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:42,520
Speaker 1: You can draw a straight line between how the Bush

668
00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:48,879
Speaker 1: administration handled the media and handled the Hitler comparisons and

669
00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:53,640
Speaker 1: handled just the constant vitriol and the election of Donald Trump.

670
00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:59,400
Speaker 1: It was the Bush Cheney strategy to never ever ever

671
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:06,560
Speaker 1: respond to any of the unhinged critiques. They just took it.

672
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:11,680
Speaker 1: As a result. I think the narrative that George Bush

673
00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:15,760
Speaker 1: doesn't care about drowning black people in New Orleans following

674
00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:19,919
Speaker 1: Hurricane Katrina took hold as crazy as it was, as

675
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:23,160
Speaker 1: demonstrably false as it was that it was the federal

676
00:49:23,200 --> 00:49:26,520
Speaker 1: government and not state and local authorities all Democrats, by

677
00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:31,920
Speaker 1: the way, that dropped the ball and allowed just untold

678
00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:36,040
Speaker 1: number of people to die when they didn't have to.

679
00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:43,319
Speaker 1: That paved the way for Republican voters to say, wait

680
00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:46,839
Speaker 1: a second, we don't want someone who's just gonna sit

681
00:49:46,920 --> 00:49:50,399
Speaker 1: there and take it. We want someone who punches back.

682
00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:53,759
Speaker 1: And you know what the left is going to call

683
00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:58,919
Speaker 1: our guy hitler and a fascist and a Nazi regardless,

684
00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:03,480
Speaker 1: my god, who did we nominate after George Bush? After

685
00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:09,919
Speaker 1: the Bush President? Is John McCain? Okay, John McCain, who

686
00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:14,960
Speaker 1: single handedly killed Trump's efforts to end Obamacare, which, by

687
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:19,080
Speaker 1: the way, would have stopped all those massive price hikes

688
00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:23,480
Speaker 1: from coming, because if Obamacare was gone, we wouldn't need

689
00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:28,879
Speaker 1: the subsidies to keep the Affordable Care Act anywhere near affordable, now,

690
00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:33,280
Speaker 1: would we. So we nominate John McCain, war hero darling

691
00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:38,800
Speaker 1: of the let Then the quintessential nice guy Mitt Romney,

692
00:50:39,239 --> 00:50:43,120
Speaker 1: who also turned into a very fierce Trump critic. Weird

693
00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:48,200
Speaker 1: how that works, isn't it, they called him. Do you

694
00:50:48,239 --> 00:50:52,560
Speaker 1: realize During the twenty twelve presidential election, they said that

695
00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:57,839
Speaker 1: Mitt Romney had literal binders full of women, that he

696
00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:03,160
Speaker 1: kept women in some sort of weird cryo chamber and

697
00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:05,600
Speaker 1: would pull them out whenever he needed a job. He

698
00:51:05,640 --> 00:51:08,400
Speaker 1: was obviously talking. We had binders full of women's names.

699
00:51:08,680 --> 00:51:10,960
Speaker 1: It was the weirdest political attack I think I have

700
00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:16,239
Speaker 1: ever heard. The binders full of women nonsense. They accused

701
00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:22,720
Speaker 1: him of abusing the family's pet, because, which was common

702
00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:24,160
Speaker 1: at the time, they would put it in the pet

703
00:51:24,200 --> 00:51:30,040
Speaker 1: carrier on top of the car. They accused him of

704
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:35,200
Speaker 1: denying health care coverage and killing one of his employees wives,

705
00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:39,120
Speaker 1: remember that one. They accused him of cheating on his taxes.

706
00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:45,120
Speaker 1: Harry Reid said, after it was demonstrably proven, Romney didn't.

707
00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:47,960
Speaker 1: They said, did you have any proof he ever cheated

708
00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:51,960
Speaker 1: on his taxes? No? Well, why did you lie about it?

709
00:51:52,239 --> 00:51:55,520
Speaker 1: He didn't win, did he was Harry Reid's famous retort.

710
00:51:56,120 --> 00:51:59,040
Speaker 1: If they would do that to a decent human being

711
00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:03,839
Speaker 1: like Romney, a decent human being like John McCain, a

712
00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:09,440
Speaker 1: decent human being like George W. Bush, and there wouldn't

713
00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:14,800
Speaker 1: be any real pushback. Well, screw you. We're gonna elect

714
00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:18,239
Speaker 1: the one guy who is going to push back. And

715
00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:21,520
Speaker 1: if you're gonna go into the gutter, he's gonna find

716
00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:23,279
Speaker 1: a way to go even lower. He is gonna be

717
00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:27,040
Speaker 1: like Penny Wise, the dancing clown down in the sewer,

718
00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:33,840
Speaker 1: to ensure that nobody is saying the sorts of stuff

719
00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:38,920
Speaker 1: about him like they did about Bush and Cheney. Ultimately,

720
00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:43,400
Speaker 1: Dick Cheney's legacy is going to be as one of

721
00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:47,560
Speaker 1: the architects of a Middle Eastern strategy that I still

722
00:52:47,760 --> 00:52:52,440
Speaker 1: fully believe would have worked if Barack Obama did not

723
00:52:53,040 --> 00:53:00,000
Speaker 1: completely undo it. The troop surge was absolutely working. The failure, though,

724
00:53:00,760 --> 00:53:05,200
Speaker 1: was presuming that people in the Middle East necessarily wanted

725
00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:11,200
Speaker 1: American style democracy. Every effort to democracy build in the

726
00:53:11,239 --> 00:53:14,799
Speaker 1: Middle East has been a colossal failure. History has proven that.

727
00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:19,120
Speaker 1: I still believe we could have taken out ISIS and

728
00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:22,239
Speaker 1: al Qaeda in Iraq and the remnants of the original

729
00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:25,440
Speaker 1: al Qaeda, very very quickly if we didn't have to

730
00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:30,640
Speaker 1: bow to the political correctness of the left insisting that

731
00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:35,320
Speaker 1: we fight the most the political left, the baby Boom

732
00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:40,000
Speaker 1: generation has lost us. I don't know how many wars

733
00:53:40,040 --> 00:53:44,080
Speaker 1: since the early nineteen seventies Vietnam eminently winnable. We were

734
00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:48,240
Speaker 1: just not allowed to actually engage same thing with Iraq.

735
00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:51,880
Speaker 1: We tuck and run with our tails between our legs

736
00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:56,320
Speaker 1: in August of twenty twenty one, under the single worst

737
00:53:56,360 --> 00:54:03,279
Speaker 1: president in our lifetimes, George Joseph R. Giving up on

738
00:54:03,480 --> 00:54:06,960
Speaker 1: the strategy that I think the Bush Cheney regime wanted

739
00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:11,239
Speaker 1: all along, which was a permanent base of operations in

740
00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:15,880
Speaker 1: that Iraq Baghdad green zone, transferring troops where we don't

741
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:20,920
Speaker 1: really need them over European and Asian airspace, although now

742
00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:24,520
Speaker 1: the emerging threats from Russia and China maybe prove that otherwise.

743
00:54:24,560 --> 00:54:27,799
Speaker 1: But back then the idea was we were going to

744
00:54:27,840 --> 00:54:31,400
Speaker 1: have as many troops as possible there, so quite literally,

745
00:54:31,440 --> 00:54:33,560
Speaker 1: as they said over and over, we would fight them

746
00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:37,160
Speaker 1: on their turf and not ours. And I think the

747
00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:40,440
Speaker 1: most enduring legacy has got to be that after nine

748
00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:43,680
Speaker 1: to eleven, thanks to the work of George W. Bush

749
00:54:43,719 --> 00:54:48,000
Speaker 1: and Dick Cheney and countless people who work tirelessly to

750
00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:51,360
Speaker 1: keep us safe. Under the leadership of Bush and Cheney,

751
00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:53,560
Speaker 1: there was not another nine to eleven. There was not

752
00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:58,960
Speaker 1: another terror attack. That strategy ultimately did succeed. The failure

753
00:54:59,640 --> 00:55:04,160
Speaker 1: was in the presumption that exporting American style democracy to

754
00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:09,120
Speaker 1: people who just fundamentally don't want it would succeed. Trump

755
00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:12,680
Speaker 1: I think has the better idea, saying, look, so long

756
00:55:12,760 --> 00:55:17,120
Speaker 1: as you don't try to nuke Israel, so long as

757
00:55:17,160 --> 00:55:20,960
Speaker 1: you're not exporting terror across the globe, we will allow

758
00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:23,880
Speaker 1: you to govern however you want. We want to partner

759
00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:27,360
Speaker 1: with the Middle East with whatever government you have, provided

760
00:55:27,400 --> 00:55:31,160
Speaker 1: that government can be compatible to the free peoples of

761
00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:33,239
Speaker 1: the world. All right, I talked way longer than I

762
00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:35,239
Speaker 1: thought I would about Dick Cheney's death. This is a

763
00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:38,520
Speaker 1: monumental figure in American politics. We will bring you the

764
00:55:38,560 --> 00:55:44,760
Speaker 1: daily Trump date next. Just realized I was so into

765
00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:48,279
Speaker 1: the Dick Cheney discussion, which is really sort of a

766
00:55:48,480 --> 00:55:51,720
Speaker 1: microcosm of where we are politically and how we got

767
00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:54,880
Speaker 1: here in America. I did not yet give out the

768
00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:58,640
Speaker 1: four o'clock word in the Fall Fortune Cash contest. That

769
00:55:58,680 --> 00:56:02,560
Speaker 1: word is money. Money. You've got until four fifty five,

770
00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:06,279
Speaker 1: plenty of time. If it takes you that long to

771
00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:09,759
Speaker 1: enter the keyword money at our website, well you're probably

772
00:56:09,840 --> 00:56:15,120
Speaker 1: a Department of Public Instruction employee, because they can't for

773
00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:19,840
Speaker 1: some reason, according to say Superintendent Jill Underley, get four

774
00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:24,400
Speaker 1: hundred names of teachers who are under investigation over a

775
00:56:24,440 --> 00:56:29,719
Speaker 1: five year period into a searchable database. In a reasonable

776
00:56:29,719 --> 00:56:31,560
Speaker 1: amount of time. That's just too much work. It's going

777
00:56:31,640 --> 00:56:35,480
Speaker 1: to cost too much money. You can do it, folks, money,

778
00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:38,839
Speaker 1: Although we are looking for creative spellings as well. I'm

779
00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:43,280
Speaker 1: sure munny works. I am told I remember the last

780
00:56:43,280 --> 00:56:46,400
Speaker 1: time we did this. You cannot just enter a dollar sign,

781
00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:50,120
Speaker 1: which I thought would have been hilarious. You do have

782
00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:53,120
Speaker 1: to at least get somewhat close to money. I'm sure

783
00:56:53,280 --> 00:56:56,919
Speaker 1: honey probably works, but I would like to see your

784
00:56:57,080 --> 00:57:02,120
Speaker 1: most creative accepted spell of our four o'clock keyword in

785
00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:06,120
Speaker 1: the Fall Fortune Cash Contest, which is indeed money. All right,

786
00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:08,239
Speaker 1: little late, but better late than never. Time Now for

787
00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:09,120
Speaker 1: the daily Trump Day.

788
00:57:09,960 --> 00:57:12,760
Speaker 9: We're gonna win so much you may even get tired

789
00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:13,240
Speaker 9: of winning.

790
00:57:13,320 --> 00:57:16,400
Speaker 1: Trump just keeps waiting. It is a win for the administration.

791
00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:19,720
Speaker 10: It's also a big win for the United States.

792
00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:22,320
Speaker 1: We have to keep winning. We have to win more.

793
00:57:22,680 --> 00:57:26,240
Speaker 1: We're gonna win more. White House flags at half staff

794
00:57:26,480 --> 00:57:29,880
Speaker 1: today in honor of Dick Cheney, who died last night

795
00:57:29,920 --> 00:57:32,800
Speaker 1: at the age of eighty four. White House Press Secretary

796
00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:35,960
Speaker 1: Caroline Levitt holding a press briefing today.

797
00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:40,200
Speaker 11: We are now on day thirty five of the Democrat

798
00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:44,800
Speaker 11: government shutdown. The Democrats' obstructionism will break the record for

799
00:57:44,880 --> 00:57:50,160
Speaker 11: the longest government shutdown in American history tonight. The Democrats

800
00:57:50,200 --> 00:57:54,680
Speaker 11: are intentionally hurting American families, workers, and businesses with this

801
00:57:54,760 --> 00:57:58,880
Speaker 11: shutdown to fight for free health care for illegal aliens

802
00:57:58,920 --> 00:58:01,840
Speaker 11: and to appease radical left wing base.

803
00:58:02,320 --> 00:58:03,680
Speaker 5: And it's a total disgrace.

804
00:58:04,880 --> 00:58:10,680
Speaker 1: In fact, President Trump has been urging Democrats to just vote,

805
00:58:10,720 --> 00:58:13,720
Speaker 1: just across the table and vote. All we need is

806
00:58:13,800 --> 00:58:16,880
Speaker 1: five of you to break the filibuster. Well, for a

807
00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:19,560
Speaker 1: fourteenth time today they refused to do that.

808
00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:19,760
Speaker 3: Now.

809
00:58:19,800 --> 00:58:24,280
Speaker 1: President Trump did also post on truth Social earlier today,

810
00:58:25,240 --> 00:58:30,120
Speaker 1: seemingly indicating that he wasn't going to free up reserve

811
00:58:30,480 --> 00:58:35,320
Speaker 1: funds contingency money for federal snap benefits that lapsed on

812
00:58:35,400 --> 00:58:40,960
Speaker 1: November one, Saturday. Levitt was asked about that during today's

813
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:42,560
Speaker 1: press briefing and try to clear it up.

814
00:58:42,600 --> 00:58:45,320
Speaker 11: The administration is fully complying with the court order. I

815
00:58:45,400 --> 00:58:48,000
Speaker 11: just spoke to the President about it. The recipients of

816
00:58:48,040 --> 00:58:50,480
Speaker 11: these staff benefits need to understand it's going to take

817
00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:53,240
Speaker 11: some time to receive this money because the Democrats have

818
00:58:53,320 --> 00:58:56,840
Speaker 11: forced the administration into a very untenable position. We are

819
00:58:56,880 --> 00:59:00,080
Speaker 11: digging into a contingency fund that is supposed to be

820
00:59:00,200 --> 00:59:02,400
Speaker 11: for emergencies, catastrophes, for.

821
00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:05,120
Speaker 5: War, and the President does not want to have to tap.

822
00:59:04,880 --> 00:59:06,600
Speaker 11: Into this fund in the future, and that's what he

823
00:59:06,680 --> 00:59:09,400
Speaker 11: was referring to in his truth social posts. So the

824
00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:12,680
Speaker 11: Department of Agriculture, as for the latest SNAP payment in

825
00:59:12,720 --> 00:59:16,720
Speaker 11: the Judges order, put out guidance to states today on

826
00:59:17,040 --> 00:59:20,040
Speaker 11: how to get that money to the recipients of SNAP.

827
00:59:20,720 --> 00:59:22,520
Speaker 5: But it's going to take some time.

828
00:59:22,720 --> 00:59:25,400
Speaker 11: The best way to get the full amount of SNAP

829
00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:29,520
Speaker 11: benefits to those beneficiaries is for Democrats to reopen the.

830
00:59:29,480 --> 00:59:34,000
Speaker 1: Government, which of course they are not going to until

831
00:59:34,280 --> 00:59:38,360
Speaker 1: after the polls close tonight. Complete election coverage, a bit

832
00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:41,960
Speaker 1: of a preview of those big races New York City, Virginia,

833
00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:45,280
Speaker 1: the New Jersey gubernatorial race coming up later on in

834
00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:49,120
Speaker 1: the five o'clock hour here on the Dano Donald's show. Now,

835
00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:53,600
Speaker 1: Levitt was also asked about another truth social post that

836
00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:56,200
Speaker 1: the President made. In fact, he has been saying this

837
00:59:56,360 --> 00:59:59,880
Speaker 1: pretty consistently for the past couple of days that republic

838
01:00:00,400 --> 01:00:04,960
Speaker 1: need to get rid of the filibuster, open the government

839
01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:08,960
Speaker 1: and do so quickly, knowing that Democrats will do the

840
01:00:09,080 --> 01:00:13,240
Speaker 1: exact same thing the second they retake power.

841
01:00:13,280 --> 01:00:16,320
Speaker 11: Here's I think the President has been very realistic and

842
01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:19,000
Speaker 11: strong in his position on the filibuster. He's been very

843
01:00:19,040 --> 01:00:20,680
Speaker 11: vocal about it. I just spoke to him about it.

844
01:00:20,720 --> 01:00:23,800
Speaker 11: He feels really strongly about this. Republicans need to play

845
01:00:23,840 --> 01:00:25,560
Speaker 11: tough and they need to play smart. That's how the

846
01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:29,160
Speaker 11: President feels. And we know that Democrats when they if

847
01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:31,920
Speaker 11: they are ever given a chance at power again in

848
01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:35,720
Speaker 11: this city, they will absolutely take away the filibuster from

849
01:00:35,760 --> 01:00:38,439
Speaker 11: the United States Senate. In fact, you had forty nine

850
01:00:38,480 --> 01:00:41,120
Speaker 11: Democrats who already voted to do this before. The only

851
01:00:41,160 --> 01:00:43,920
Speaker 11: reason it did not move forward was because you had

852
01:00:43,920 --> 01:00:47,200
Speaker 11: two Democrats who are no longer in office because they

853
01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:50,160
Speaker 11: were run out of town by the far left, radical base.

854
01:00:49,920 --> 01:00:53,400
Speaker 5: Of their party. And so President Trump is very quite

855
01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:54,080
Speaker 5: clear on this.

856
01:00:54,240 --> 01:00:57,560
Speaker 11: He wants to see Republicans move as many good pieces

857
01:00:57,600 --> 01:01:00,760
Speaker 11: of legislation for our country forward in the next three

858
01:01:00,840 --> 01:01:03,840
Speaker 11: years of his administration as they possibly can, and the

859
01:01:03,880 --> 01:01:06,880
Speaker 11: filibuster is one means to doing that.

860
01:01:06,880 --> 01:01:11,080
Speaker 1: That, ladies and gentlemen, is your daily Trump date. I

861
01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:14,800
Speaker 1: continue to be very consistent in my analysis of this,

862
01:01:15,560 --> 01:01:18,800
Speaker 1: nuking the filibuster would be the single dumbest thing that

863
01:01:18,960 --> 01:01:25,120
Speaker 1: Republicans could do. Democrats are begging, they are pleading for

864
01:01:25,240 --> 01:01:28,840
Speaker 1: Republicans to get rid of the filibuster. Now it is

865
01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:33,080
Speaker 1: true that they may do so on their own anyway,

866
01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:38,240
Speaker 1: but it made it way easier for Republicans to get

867
01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:42,640
Speaker 1: rid of the filibuster on Supreme Court nominees once Harry

868
01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:45,760
Speaker 1: Reid and Senate Democrats back in I believe it was

869
01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:51,479
Speaker 1: twenty thirteen twenty fourteen, nuked the filibuster for all other

870
01:01:51,600 --> 01:01:56,560
Speaker 1: judicial nominees as well as for cabinet level positions. Now,

871
01:01:56,600 --> 01:02:00,840
Speaker 1: this would somewhat bolster the argument that the second that

872
01:02:00,960 --> 01:02:05,320
Speaker 1: Democrats retake power, they're going to do it regardless. That's

873
01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:08,600
Speaker 1: not a guarantee. I know full well, and I think

874
01:02:08,640 --> 01:02:11,720
Speaker 1: he said it publicly a couple of times. John Fetterman

875
01:02:11,800 --> 01:02:15,040
Speaker 1: would not be in favor of that. I do believe

876
01:02:15,080 --> 01:02:20,280
Speaker 1: that Angus King, the independent who caucuses with Democrats, also

877
01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:22,920
Speaker 1: would not be in favor of that. So it's not

878
01:02:24,640 --> 01:02:29,480
Speaker 1: a foregone conclusion that Democrats would just retake power, get

879
01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:32,920
Speaker 1: fifty one votes and then immediately get rid of the

880
01:02:32,920 --> 01:02:37,160
Speaker 1: philibuster if Republicans do it. For them right now. There's

881
01:02:37,480 --> 01:02:40,160
Speaker 1: the filibuster is gone. It's just it's not going to

882
01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:46,280
Speaker 1: It's not going to exist anymore because Democrats will never, ever,

883
01:02:46,520 --> 01:02:51,520
Speaker 1: ever ever want it back, because they know just what

884
01:02:51,560 --> 01:02:53,960
Speaker 1: they could do. They can do with a simple fifty

885
01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:56,800
Speaker 1: one to forty nine vote or even a fifty to

886
01:02:56,880 --> 01:02:59,880
Speaker 1: fifty tie if they control the presidency. Un Thus, the

887
01:03:00,080 --> 01:03:03,560
Speaker 1: vice president casts the deciding vote as president to the Senate,

888
01:03:04,240 --> 01:03:10,680
Speaker 1: they can pass whatever craziness they want. They could expand

889
01:03:10,760 --> 01:03:14,080
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court with fifty one votes in the United

890
01:03:14,120 --> 01:03:20,760
Speaker 1: States Senate. They could add Puerto Rico and Washington, DC

891
01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:24,720
Speaker 1: as new states with fifty one votes in the Senate.

892
01:03:25,120 --> 01:03:28,440
Speaker 1: There is no guarantee that they wouldn't do that anyway,

893
01:03:28,920 --> 01:03:33,080
Speaker 1: but if Republicans gave them the gift of not needing

894
01:03:33,240 --> 01:03:36,720
Speaker 1: sixty votes to be able to do so, then they

895
01:03:36,760 --> 01:03:43,720
Speaker 1: absolutely would. These are people with radical ideas, and they

896
01:03:43,760 --> 01:03:48,960
Speaker 1: are constantly in search of how to maintain a permanent

897
01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:53,440
Speaker 1: majority in a permanent grip on power without actually having

898
01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:57,200
Speaker 1: to win over a majority of voters. We're going to

899
01:03:57,240 --> 01:04:00,760
Speaker 1: step aside for a break out. No fear though, O'Donnell's

900
01:04:00,760 --> 01:04:06,040
Speaker 1: show is coming back before you know it. Coming up

901
01:04:06,080 --> 01:04:08,920
Speaker 1: in the five o'clock hour, not only will we break

902
01:04:08,960 --> 01:04:12,120
Speaker 1: down all of the races on the ballot, and I

903
01:04:12,120 --> 01:04:14,520
Speaker 1: at least the big ones that you need to be

904
01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:16,840
Speaker 1: aware of. If you're going to be watching Fox News

905
01:04:16,880 --> 01:04:19,920
Speaker 1: for election coverage, I know I will be, even though

906
01:04:19,960 --> 01:04:23,360
Speaker 1: I'm not super invested in any of these races. Frankly,

907
01:04:23,680 --> 01:04:26,480
Speaker 1: I think Democrats are going to win everything. These are

908
01:04:26,480 --> 01:04:30,560
Speaker 1: Democrat states, folks, And yes, I do believe the Kami

909
01:04:31,240 --> 01:04:35,840
Speaker 1: Zorhan Mamdani is going to win the mayorship of New York.

910
01:04:35,880 --> 01:04:39,480
Speaker 1: I'd love to be wrong. Well, I'll explain. Coming up

911
01:04:39,480 --> 01:04:41,520
Speaker 1: in the five o'clock hour, we are also going to

912
01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:45,480
Speaker 1: be discussing a hearing on the bill today that I

913
01:04:45,640 --> 01:04:48,840
Speaker 1: first reported on a couple of weeks ago that would

914
01:04:48,920 --> 01:04:54,480
Speaker 1: basically give cartel like authority to the native tribes here

915
01:04:54,520 --> 01:04:59,320
Speaker 1: in Wisconsin that already have cartel like authority over the

916
01:04:59,480 --> 01:05:04,600
Speaker 1: casino industry. It is the sports Betting bill. We will

917
01:05:04,640 --> 01:05:07,280
Speaker 1: get into that as there was a hearing in the

918
01:05:09,040 --> 01:05:12,760
Speaker 1: Agriculture and Government Affairs Committee or some committee. It was

919
01:05:13,240 --> 01:05:16,400
Speaker 1: a Senate committee, and I was sort of flipping, this

920
01:05:16,440 --> 01:05:19,280
Speaker 1: is how exciting my days typically are. Ladies, and gentlemen

921
01:05:20,080 --> 01:05:22,640
Speaker 1: in case you think the life of a popular radio

922
01:05:22,720 --> 01:05:26,760
Speaker 1: talk show host is, you know, it's all limousines and

923
01:05:26,920 --> 01:05:31,160
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know. Sitting around in a room,

924
01:05:31,320 --> 01:05:35,960
Speaker 1: I was flipping back and forth on my computer on

925
01:05:36,080 --> 01:05:40,120
Speaker 1: wisside dot org between the Jill Underley hearing in the

926
01:05:40,360 --> 01:05:45,720
Speaker 1: Education Committee and the Sports online sports gambling hearing in

927
01:05:45,800 --> 01:05:49,920
Speaker 1: the I believe it was Government Affairs Committee, but I

928
01:05:50,240 --> 01:05:52,800
Speaker 1: think we have a weird committee. It's like agriculture something

929
01:05:52,880 --> 01:05:55,760
Speaker 1: and Government Affairs, which is it's kind of a weird

930
01:05:55,800 --> 01:05:59,520
Speaker 1: combination of all of them. And we will get into

931
01:05:59,520 --> 01:06:02,240
Speaker 1: that coming up at the top of the five o'clock hour.

932
01:06:02,280 --> 01:06:07,040
Speaker 1: I think it is still a remarkably bad idea to

933
01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:11,919
Speaker 1: give cartel like authority over what promises to be quite

934
01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:17,680
Speaker 1: possibly even a far more lucrative gambling industry than even

935
01:06:17,680 --> 01:06:23,640
Speaker 1: casino gaming, and that's online sports betting. It is a massive, massive, massive,

936
01:06:23,840 --> 01:06:28,040
Speaker 1: massive industry. We will get into that coming up after

937
01:06:28,200 --> 01:06:32,200
Speaker 1: the top of the hour. The NFL trade deadline was

938
01:06:32,640 --> 01:06:40,200
Speaker 1: surprisingly active. There was a blockbuster trade in the NFL today.

939
01:06:40,560 --> 01:06:42,600
Speaker 1: You know who I wish was alive to see this,

940
01:06:44,800 --> 01:06:49,600
Speaker 1: Poor Tucker Craft. Tucker Craft would have absolutely loved all

941
01:06:49,680 --> 01:06:55,640
Speaker 1: the action in today's trade deadline news. He's not dead.

942
01:06:56,600 --> 01:07:00,800
Speaker 1: Oh well, somebody should probably tell Romeo Dobbs Packer's wide

943
01:07:00,840 --> 01:07:02,360
Speaker 1: receiver after practice today.

944
01:07:02,400 --> 01:07:07,000
Speaker 2: I wish that, you know, just on one of our captains,

945
01:07:07,080 --> 01:07:11,720
Speaker 2: or even just your worst enemy. I don't wish that

946
01:07:11,800 --> 01:07:19,240
Speaker 2: on any man. And you know, Tucker's and in a

947
01:07:19,280 --> 01:07:22,960
Speaker 2: better place. But again, you just gotta.

948
01:07:25,840 --> 01:07:26,440
Speaker 5: Next question.

949
01:07:27,040 --> 01:07:28,040
Speaker 4: He had to move on.

950
01:07:28,520 --> 01:07:32,360
Speaker 1: He was getting choked up thinking about poor Tucker Craft

951
01:07:32,920 --> 01:07:37,000
Speaker 1: in heaven. It's so masically. You see Tucker Craft like

952
01:07:37,320 --> 01:07:39,680
Speaker 1: come in on his crutches be like hey Romeo. It's like,

953
01:07:39,760 --> 01:07:43,080
Speaker 1: oh man, it's like I can still hear him today,

954
01:07:43,160 --> 01:07:45,920
Speaker 1: but I know he's gone and he'll never come back.

955
01:07:46,040 --> 01:07:50,680
Speaker 1: I get what Romeo is saying. He's in a better place.

956
01:07:51,600 --> 01:07:55,080
Speaker 1: It's like he thought he died. The Indianapolis Colts have

957
01:07:55,160 --> 01:08:00,320
Speaker 1: traded for arguably one of the best cornerbacks in pro foot,

958
01:08:00,720 --> 01:08:04,600
Speaker 1: and that is Sauce Gardner. His name is actually a

959
01:08:04,680 --> 01:08:09,320
Speaker 1: Mod Gardner, but everybody calls him Sauce. The Jets get

960
01:08:09,600 --> 01:08:14,480
Speaker 1: wide receiver Audeni Mitchell and two first round picks in

961
01:08:14,600 --> 01:08:19,080
Speaker 1: exchange for Sauce Gardner. These are the type of deals

962
01:08:19,120 --> 01:08:23,200
Speaker 1: you typically do not see at the NFL trade deadline.

963
01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:27,720
Speaker 1: The thinking is that for offensive players, at least, it's

964
01:08:27,880 --> 01:08:31,360
Speaker 1: too difficult to learn the playbook in such a short

965
01:08:31,439 --> 01:08:36,040
Speaker 1: amount of time. We did have a relatively high profile

966
01:08:36,200 --> 01:08:41,320
Speaker 1: offensive move. Jacoby Myers goes from the Oakland Raider Las

967
01:08:41,400 --> 01:08:46,960
Speaker 1: Vegas Raiders to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Beyond that, the Cowboys

968
01:08:47,080 --> 01:08:53,120
Speaker 1: added a defensive tackle, quinnin Williams Rashid Shaheed. Outside of

969
01:08:53,160 --> 01:08:56,600
Speaker 1: fantasy football, and if you, like me, were scraping the

970
01:08:56,760 --> 01:09:01,080
Speaker 1: absolute bottom of the waiver wire pickup because of bye

971
01:09:01,120 --> 01:09:04,240
Speaker 1: weeks to get any serviceable wide receiver, you're probably the

972
01:09:04,280 --> 01:09:09,599
Speaker 1: only ones who know who Rashid Shaheed is. He goes

973
01:09:09,640 --> 01:09:13,080
Speaker 1: from the New Orleans Saints to the Seattle Seahawks, who

974
01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:15,960
Speaker 1: desperately need wide receivers. You wouldn't know it from the

975
01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:22,200
Speaker 1: Sunday night football thumping that they put on the Washington Commanders,

976
01:09:22,280 --> 01:09:28,200
Speaker 1: who appear to have lost their phenom quarterback to an

977
01:09:28,240 --> 01:09:36,679
Speaker 1: elbow dislocation. Industry industry injury, excuse me. The Bears picked

978
01:09:36,760 --> 01:09:43,599
Speaker 1: up Joe Troyne Schoyenka. He is an edge rusher from

979
01:09:43,640 --> 01:09:46,679
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns in exchange for a sixth round pick.

980
01:09:46,760 --> 01:09:50,720
Speaker 1: That's really it. There's an offensive tackle who goes from

981
01:09:50,720 --> 01:09:57,360
Speaker 1: the Saints, Trevor Penning to the Los Angeles Chargers Peckers

982
01:09:57,520 --> 01:10:01,240
Speaker 1: as expected, Stan pat and I know a lot of

983
01:10:01,240 --> 01:10:04,919
Speaker 1: people are going to be ticked off at that. Although

984
01:10:05,040 --> 01:10:08,600
Speaker 1: the issue with the Packers does not seem to be personnel,

985
01:10:09,040 --> 01:10:13,639
Speaker 1: it just doesn't. I still think this is a good team.

986
01:10:13,720 --> 01:10:15,960
Speaker 1: We didn't have a whole lot of time to talk

987
01:10:16,000 --> 01:10:19,160
Speaker 1: about the Packers loss to the Carolina Panthers yesterday. We

988
01:10:19,160 --> 01:10:22,879
Speaker 1: were too busy covering the funeral planning for Tucker Craft.

989
01:10:23,479 --> 01:10:26,800
Speaker 1: Romeo Dobbs says he is going to cover all fut

990
01:10:26,880 --> 01:10:32,479
Speaker 1: very expenses for Tucker. He's in a better place. What

991
01:10:32,640 --> 01:10:36,120
Speaker 1: is that the medical tent on the sidelines. He's in

992
01:10:36,200 --> 01:10:44,360
Speaker 1: a better place, Romeo. Other news, JayR Alexander, who just

993
01:10:44,560 --> 01:10:49,559
Speaker 1: never really fit in with the Baltimore Ravens, he goes

994
01:10:49,640 --> 01:10:54,040
Speaker 1: to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for a future sixth

995
01:10:54,160 --> 01:10:56,960
Speaker 1: round pick. I believe they also sent a seventh round pick.

996
01:10:57,360 --> 01:11:00,840
Speaker 1: It's sad to see. I do hope that Jaiere is

997
01:11:01,400 --> 01:11:06,040
Speaker 1: able to salvage his career with Philadelphia, because after the

998
01:11:06,080 --> 01:11:12,320
Speaker 1: injuries and after just the bizarre way he exited Green Bay.

999
01:11:13,000 --> 01:11:15,679
Speaker 1: He just did not fit in with the Baltimore They

1000
01:11:15,720 --> 01:11:18,839
Speaker 1: were healthy scratching him in a lot of these games.

1001
01:11:19,320 --> 01:11:23,840
Speaker 1: So that's pretty much your NFL trade deadline analysis, my

1002
01:11:24,520 --> 01:11:29,000
Speaker 1: five second analysis of the Packers. They're fine, they just

1003
01:11:29,080 --> 01:11:33,040
Speaker 1: have a tendency to play down to their competition. The

1004
01:11:33,160 --> 01:11:38,200
Speaker 1: offense looks disjointed. Could they have used a playmaking wide receiver. Yeah,

1005
01:11:38,240 --> 01:11:43,040
Speaker 1: absolutely they could, especially now with the loss of Tucker Craft.

1006
01:11:43,080 --> 01:11:47,040
Speaker 1: Not to death or somebody is probably going to be

1007
01:11:47,120 --> 01:11:49,600
Speaker 1: offended by that. It's just it's too funny not to

1008
01:11:49,680 --> 01:11:52,599
Speaker 1: keep playing that SoundBite of Romeo Dobbs thinking that Tucker

1009
01:11:52,640 --> 01:11:55,840
Speaker 1: Craft is dead and Romeo is having himself a very

1010
01:11:55,880 --> 01:12:00,680
Speaker 1: fine season. But it seems as though the might be

1011
01:12:00,800 --> 01:12:06,400
Speaker 1: one playmaker away from really busting this thing open offensively. Defensively,

1012
01:12:06,560 --> 01:12:09,880
Speaker 1: I still think they're a good team. I mean, they

1013
01:12:09,920 --> 01:12:12,720
Speaker 1: gave up a critical drive to Carolina at the end

1014
01:12:12,760 --> 01:12:16,200
Speaker 1: of that game to get them into somewhat field goal range.

1015
01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:19,320
Speaker 1: What was that a fifty eight yard kick as time expires.

1016
01:12:19,360 --> 01:12:22,920
Speaker 1: You simply can't allow that to happen. Defensively, And yes,

1017
01:12:23,000 --> 01:12:25,719
Speaker 1: they did give up what forty points to the Dallas

1018
01:12:25,720 --> 01:12:29,200
Speaker 1: Cowboys and that overtime tie a couple of weeks back.

1019
01:12:30,240 --> 01:12:35,599
Speaker 1: This is a world class defense, a super Bowl caliber defense,

1020
01:12:35,840 --> 01:12:41,120
Speaker 1: that just does not have a consistent enough offense to

1021
01:12:41,240 --> 01:12:45,040
Speaker 1: go with it. That said, that's the sort of thing

1022
01:12:45,120 --> 01:12:47,800
Speaker 1: that typically will get in sync maybe a little bit

1023
01:12:47,920 --> 01:12:51,960
Speaker 1: later on in the season. I think what people are

1024
01:12:51,960 --> 01:12:55,479
Speaker 1: coming to grips with, especially without Tucker Craft, is just

1025
01:12:55,560 --> 01:13:00,559
Speaker 1: the reality that this Packers team was probably overhyped after

1026
01:13:00,600 --> 01:13:03,919
Speaker 1: the acquisition of Micah Parsons, and that people had dreams

1027
01:13:03,920 --> 01:13:08,240
Speaker 1: of a Super Bowl that probably weren't really warranted. We

1028
01:13:08,320 --> 01:13:11,400
Speaker 1: name the Unsung Hero of the Day when The Dan

1029
01:13:11,479 --> 01:13:17,240
Speaker 1: o'donald Show returns. Dan o'donald's show each and every day

1030
01:13:17,320 --> 01:13:20,640
Speaker 1: we try to highlight the people who are doing a

1031
01:13:20,640 --> 01:13:23,640
Speaker 1: little bit extra for our community. Ladies and gentlemen, it

1032
01:13:23,760 --> 01:13:34,800
Speaker 1: is time for today's Unsung Hero of the Day. Today's

1033
01:13:35,160 --> 01:13:40,799
Speaker 1: Unsung Hero of the Day comes to us from his wife.

1034
01:13:41,160 --> 01:13:44,599
Speaker 1: I got the following email from a lovely listener by

1035
01:13:44,600 --> 01:13:46,800
Speaker 1: the name of Jennifer Hi.

1036
01:13:46,920 --> 01:13:47,040
Speaker 10: Dan.

1037
01:13:47,120 --> 01:13:49,080
Speaker 1: I thought I sent this yesterday, but didn't see it

1038
01:13:49,120 --> 01:13:51,439
Speaker 1: in my cent email, so I apologize. If you're getting

1039
01:13:51,439 --> 01:13:54,560
Speaker 1: this twice. I'm writing to inform you of an inspiring

1040
01:13:54,600 --> 01:13:59,360
Speaker 1: initiative undertaken by my husband Nick. In honor of the

1041
01:13:59,439 --> 01:14:03,040
Speaker 1: Marine qu War's birthday and Veterans Day on November tenth

1042
01:14:03,080 --> 01:14:06,080
Speaker 1: through the eleventh, he will embark on a twenty five

1043
01:14:06,360 --> 01:14:11,760
Speaker 1: hour hike to raise funds for two outstanding nonprofits dedicated

1044
01:14:11,880 --> 01:14:17,519
Speaker 1: to supporting veterans. Now, Jennifer didn't tell the full story.

1045
01:14:17,680 --> 01:14:20,960
Speaker 1: Not only is her husband Nick Stewart going to be

1046
01:14:21,120 --> 01:14:24,200
Speaker 1: walking for twenty five miles, He's going to be wearing

1047
01:14:24,320 --> 01:14:28,800
Speaker 1: a twenty five pound weighted vest while he does so,

1048
01:14:28,880 --> 01:14:33,520
Speaker 1: to raise funds and awareness for the nonprofits Next Eighteen

1049
01:14:33,800 --> 01:14:37,360
Speaker 1: and the Big Fish Foundation. According to our friends at

1050
01:14:37,439 --> 01:14:42,560
Speaker 1: Washington County Insider, the journey begins eight am Monday, November

1051
01:14:42,680 --> 01:14:45,920
Speaker 1: tenth at the Old Washington County Courthouse in West Bend

1052
01:14:46,240 --> 01:14:49,559
Speaker 1: and will end twenty five hours later nine am on

1053
01:14:49,760 --> 01:14:53,719
Speaker 1: Veterans Day, November eleventh, on Fifth Avenue and Poplar Street.

1054
01:14:53,800 --> 01:14:58,920
Speaker 1: Every penny raised Stuart Stress will go directly to the organization.

1055
01:14:59,080 --> 01:15:02,400
Speaker 1: Stuart spent the past decade working in mental health at

1056
01:15:02,400 --> 01:15:06,320
Speaker 1: the Veterans Administration Hospital in Milwaukee, and said this effort

1057
01:15:06,400 --> 01:15:10,240
Speaker 1: is deeply personal to him. He said, I've really gained

1058
01:15:10,240 --> 01:15:13,360
Speaker 1: a good sense of what the veteran community truly needs

1059
01:15:13,439 --> 01:15:17,000
Speaker 1: right now. It's about helping them become better contributors to

1060
01:15:17,120 --> 01:15:21,040
Speaker 1: their communities and reigniting their sense of service like they

1061
01:15:21,120 --> 01:15:24,080
Speaker 1: had when they were in the military, and those two

1062
01:15:24,240 --> 01:15:29,760
Speaker 1: organizations do just that. Check out Washington County Insider for

1063
01:15:29,920 --> 01:15:33,800
Speaker 1: more information on a twenty five mile hike wearing a

1064
01:15:33,880 --> 01:15:39,000
Speaker 1: twenty five pound weighted vest. Thank you so much for

1065
01:15:39,120 --> 01:15:43,840
Speaker 1: highlighting the great work that your husband is doing, Jennifer

1066
01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:48,000
Speaker 1: nick Stewart. I could not think of a more deserving

1067
01:15:48,680 --> 01:15:52,479
Speaker 1: Unsung Hero of the day. If you have someone in

1068
01:15:52,520 --> 01:15:56,240
Speaker 1: your life that you could think of that needs a

1069
01:15:56,400 --> 01:15:59,760
Speaker 1: little recognition for the great work they do, but aren't

1070
01:15:59,760 --> 01:16:03,040
Speaker 1: going to seek recognition for themselves, shoot me an email,

1071
01:16:03,240 --> 01:16:05,719
Speaker 1: let me know about them and they could be featured

1072
01:16:05,760 --> 01:16:08,960
Speaker 1: as the next Unsung Hero of the Day. Just email

1073
01:16:09,040 --> 01:16:14,559
Speaker 1: medod at iHeartMedia dot com. Dan o'donalds Show coming right back,

1074
01:16:15,000 --> 01:16:18,280
Speaker 1: Welcome back. It is the Dan o'donald Show. Final hour,

1075
01:16:18,439 --> 01:16:22,280
Speaker 1: big election preview coming up in I'd say about fifteen

1076
01:16:22,400 --> 01:16:24,559
Speaker 1: twenty minutes somewhere and there. We're going to take a

1077
01:16:24,560 --> 01:16:28,880
Speaker 1: look at the big ticket item on the election night

1078
01:16:29,200 --> 01:16:32,120
Speaker 1: menu tonight, and that is, of course New York City's

1079
01:16:32,240 --> 01:16:36,360
Speaker 1: mayoral election, where folks, I hate to be the bearer

1080
01:16:36,400 --> 01:16:40,480
Speaker 1: of bad news, but it is almost certain that socialist

1081
01:16:40,920 --> 01:16:45,960
Speaker 1: communist Zoron Mamdani is going to win. He is going

1082
01:16:46,000 --> 01:16:49,040
Speaker 1: to be the next mayor of New York unless Andrew

1083
01:16:49,080 --> 01:16:53,240
Speaker 1: Cuomo can mount a miraculous comeback. And the people were saying, well,

1084
01:16:53,439 --> 01:16:56,280
Speaker 1: Curtis Leewas should have gotten out of this race sooner.

1085
01:16:56,560 --> 01:16:59,439
Speaker 1: How many SLIWA voters do you honestly think are going

1086
01:16:59,520 --> 01:17:04,280
Speaker 1: to vote for Andrew Cuomo? People who think, well, if

1087
01:17:04,320 --> 01:17:06,280
Speaker 1: this guy wasn't in the race, it would be a

1088
01:17:06,600 --> 01:17:11,680
Speaker 1: direct one to one vote, That's not entirely true. And

1089
01:17:12,120 --> 01:17:16,160
Speaker 1: that's why there are The Libertarian Party has been saying

1090
01:17:16,200 --> 01:17:19,800
Speaker 1: this forever, Like in fact, when I was all over

1091
01:17:19,840 --> 01:17:24,639
Speaker 1: the Libertarian candidate Phil Anderson in the US Senate race,

1092
01:17:24,920 --> 01:17:28,960
Speaker 1: saying well, some of his voters clearly would have gone

1093
01:17:29,040 --> 01:17:34,320
Speaker 1: to Eric Huvedy, possibly preventing Senator Tammy Baldwin from winning

1094
01:17:34,320 --> 01:17:39,720
Speaker 1: another term. He correctly stated, Dan, if there is no libertarian,

1095
01:17:40,160 --> 01:17:43,960
Speaker 1: Libertarian voters will just stay home. They hate both parties.

1096
01:17:43,960 --> 01:17:48,280
Speaker 1: It wasn't like Thomas Leeger who was getting people who

1097
01:17:48,320 --> 01:17:53,120
Speaker 1: would probably otherwise have voted for Republicans. Think about it.

1098
01:17:54,720 --> 01:17:59,720
Speaker 1: Would you vote for let's say, Tammy Baldwin if it

1099
01:17:59,800 --> 01:18:04,559
Speaker 1: meant AOC could be stopped. I mean, I would hope

1100
01:18:04,600 --> 01:18:07,439
Speaker 1: so lesser of two evils there, And all of you

1101
01:18:07,560 --> 01:18:10,200
Speaker 1: Conservatives who listen to me in the city of Milwaukee

1102
01:18:10,360 --> 01:18:13,400
Speaker 1: know exactly what this is like, or the city of Madison.

1103
01:18:14,040 --> 01:18:16,559
Speaker 1: You always have to decide between the lesser of two

1104
01:18:16,600 --> 01:18:19,000
Speaker 1: evils because there's never a chance that a Republican is

1105
01:18:19,080 --> 01:18:21,720
Speaker 1: going to win. So we'll get into that coming up

1106
01:18:21,760 --> 01:18:24,080
Speaker 1: a little bit later. On right now nationwide, keyword this

1111
01:18:37,400 --> 01:18:42,320
Speaker 1: dollars in the Fall Fortune Cash Contest. Senate hearing today

1112
01:18:42,640 --> 01:18:47,719
Speaker 1: on a Senate bill that would basically allow online sports

1113
01:18:47,880 --> 01:18:54,000
Speaker 1: betting only if it's run or at least operated by

1114
01:18:54,080 --> 01:18:59,639
Speaker 1: the Native tribes that already have sports books. SB five

1115
01:18:59,760 --> 01:19:05,200
Speaker 1: nine two would basically enact what's known as the hub

1116
01:19:05,320 --> 01:19:10,320
Speaker 1: and spoke model of online sports gambling that was recently

1117
01:19:10,360 --> 01:19:13,920
Speaker 1: allowed by a judge in Florida. There was a Supreme

1118
01:19:13,960 --> 01:19:18,080
Speaker 1: Court decision about seven years ago that legalized sports betting.

1119
01:19:18,080 --> 01:19:23,599
Speaker 1: Across the country. Online sports gambling has taken off like

1120
01:19:23,640 --> 01:19:28,040
Speaker 1: you would not believe. But in Wisconsin it's not legal

1121
01:19:28,479 --> 01:19:33,160
Speaker 1: unless you are physically in a sports book. There was

1122
01:19:33,200 --> 01:19:37,120
Speaker 1: a sports book at the Oneida Casino. There was just

1123
01:19:37,160 --> 01:19:39,880
Speaker 1: a sports book that was put up, a beautiful one

1124
01:19:40,320 --> 01:19:44,599
Speaker 1: at the Pottawatomy Hotel and Casino's second biggest sports book

1125
01:19:44,800 --> 01:19:47,760
Speaker 1: in the country, I believe, behind only the Circa in

1126
01:19:47,840 --> 01:19:51,080
Speaker 1: Las Vegas. Really really good look in sports book. It's

1127
01:19:51,120 --> 01:19:56,679
Speaker 1: a very very cool place to watch games. There would

1128
01:19:56,720 --> 01:20:00,960
Speaker 1: be a geo fence around the sportsbook and if you

1129
01:20:01,000 --> 01:20:05,120
Speaker 1: were off casino property, you were not allowed to wager

1130
01:20:05,400 --> 01:20:11,840
Speaker 1: using your mobile device. The hub and spoke model basically

1131
01:20:12,840 --> 01:20:17,759
Speaker 1: takes that concept and says, all right, if the server

1132
01:20:18,560 --> 01:20:23,840
Speaker 1: for online sports betting, for example, a draft Kings or

1133
01:20:23,880 --> 01:20:28,280
Speaker 1: a bet MGM fan duel, something like that, if the

1134
01:20:28,400 --> 01:20:33,759
Speaker 1: server is located in a sports book, then the spokes

1135
01:20:33,800 --> 01:20:38,519
Speaker 1: that serves as the hub, the spokes the individual phones

1136
01:20:38,560 --> 01:20:42,360
Speaker 1: where bets are placed can be anywhere in the state.

1137
01:20:44,360 --> 01:20:49,960
Speaker 1: That's basically what SB five ninety two does. It would

1138
01:20:50,000 --> 01:20:56,000
Speaker 1: give unimaginable power to those Native tribes. And this is

1139
01:20:56,120 --> 01:21:02,960
Speaker 1: why the Sports Betting Associate, which is a thing the SBA,

1140
01:21:03,160 --> 01:21:08,000
Speaker 1: not the or excuse me, sports Betting Alliance. The SBA

1141
01:21:08,120 --> 01:21:11,000
Speaker 1: is not the Small Business Administration, but rather the Sports

1142
01:21:11,120 --> 01:21:18,560
Speaker 1: Betting Alliance, came out today in opposition to this. Operators

1143
01:21:18,840 --> 01:21:22,920
Speaker 1: such as DraftKings, FanDuel, etc. Would need to provide at

1144
01:21:23,000 --> 01:21:27,120
Speaker 1: least sixty percent of their revenues if they want to

1145
01:21:27,200 --> 01:21:31,719
Speaker 1: operate in Wisconsin to those Native tribes so they could

1146
01:21:31,760 --> 01:21:36,839
Speaker 1: set up a server inside the casino. If this sounds

1147
01:21:36,880 --> 01:21:42,160
Speaker 1: phenomenally stupid, it is now far be it from me

1148
01:21:42,800 --> 01:21:46,840
Speaker 1: to take the side of a massive operator like Draft

1149
01:21:46,960 --> 01:21:52,080
Speaker 1: Kings or bet MGM against those plucky little tribes who

1150
01:21:52,439 --> 01:21:56,519
Speaker 1: make millions and millions and millions of dollars. And because

1151
01:21:56,560 --> 01:22:03,720
Speaker 1: of insane corruptly Nego sheated and paid for gaming compacts

1152
01:22:04,120 --> 01:22:07,160
Speaker 1: that they made with Diamond Jim Doyle while he was

1153
01:22:07,240 --> 01:22:10,120
Speaker 1: running for governor in two thousand and two. While I

1154
01:22:10,280 --> 01:22:18,000
Speaker 1: might add serving as Wisconsin's Attorney general, the tribes would

1155
01:22:18,040 --> 01:22:25,799
Speaker 1: get a cartel over sports gambling online sports gambling in Wisconsin. Now,

1156
01:22:26,320 --> 01:22:30,519
Speaker 1: there was testimony today from a gentleman whose name I

1157
01:22:30,680 --> 01:22:35,040
Speaker 1: did not catch. He is from the ho Chunk Legislature,

1158
01:22:35,760 --> 01:22:39,880
Speaker 1: and here was, honest to goodness, his opening argument for

1159
01:22:40,160 --> 01:22:44,640
Speaker 1: why we should give ho Chunk Nation gaming, the Oneida

1160
01:22:44,800 --> 01:22:49,120
Speaker 1: and the Potawatamie, the tribes that have sports books, this

1161
01:22:49,240 --> 01:22:53,800
Speaker 1: cartel like authority. His argument was, Yeah, we already make

1162
01:22:53,840 --> 01:22:56,439
Speaker 1: a ton of money, but we really want more money.

1163
01:22:56,560 --> 01:23:00,479
Speaker 10: Yes, the Nation does well with our casino game gaming

1164
01:23:00,520 --> 01:23:04,000
Speaker 10: operations and we are thankful for what we have. However,

1165
01:23:04,400 --> 01:23:07,960
Speaker 10: with around eight thousand tribal members, we are still woefully

1166
01:23:08,120 --> 01:23:12,320
Speaker 10: short on providing what is needed. That's why this bill

1167
01:23:12,400 --> 01:23:15,719
Speaker 10: a small first step to allowing tribes to offer mobile

1168
01:23:15,720 --> 01:23:19,040
Speaker 10: sports betting. It's so important. It would allow the Nation

1169
01:23:19,400 --> 01:23:22,719
Speaker 10: and other tribes to tap into a new revenue source

1170
01:23:23,280 --> 01:23:28,280
Speaker 10: that can be used to support tribal governmental functions, sustain

1171
01:23:28,439 --> 01:23:32,919
Speaker 10: self sufficiency, and assist with meeting the needs of tribal members.

1172
01:23:34,040 --> 01:23:40,759
Speaker 1: So, uh, casino doesn't do that? Huh? And how about

1173
01:23:40,920 --> 01:23:45,479
Speaker 1: all those tribes that don't currently have casinos but want

1174
01:23:45,479 --> 01:23:50,240
Speaker 1: to put up casinos to help with their members the

1175
01:23:50,560 --> 01:23:53,839
Speaker 1: ho Chunk and the Oneida and the Potawatamy have frozen

1176
01:23:53,960 --> 01:23:59,520
Speaker 1: them out by invoking the insane clauses in those gaming compacts.

1177
01:24:00,040 --> 01:24:02,000
Speaker 1: Let's say the state of Wisconsin would have to pay

1178
01:24:02,320 --> 01:24:06,439
Speaker 1: tens if not one hundred million dollars or more by

1179
01:24:06,479 --> 01:24:11,880
Speaker 1: way of a penalty. Seriously, his lead argument was, we

1180
01:24:11,960 --> 01:24:14,000
Speaker 1: make a lot of money, but we can make even

1181
01:24:14,080 --> 01:24:20,240
Speaker 1: more money with this. So if bet MGM at DraftKings,

1182
01:24:20,280 --> 01:24:25,080
Speaker 1: at FanDuel, if fanatics I believe has a sports book,

1183
01:24:25,479 --> 01:24:29,320
Speaker 1: if they want to operate in Wisconsin, they basically have

1184
01:24:29,439 --> 01:24:33,960
Speaker 1: to give money to the cartel in order to place

1185
01:24:34,160 --> 01:24:38,160
Speaker 1: a fan duel or Draft Kings or bet MGM server

1186
01:24:38,720 --> 01:24:42,160
Speaker 1: in one of the casinos and hand over sixty percent

1187
01:24:42,240 --> 01:24:49,360
Speaker 1: of the profits. Folks, this has disaster written all over it.

1188
01:24:49,880 --> 01:24:53,720
Speaker 1: Mobile sports gambling. If you're going to allow it, just

1189
01:24:54,000 --> 01:24:59,280
Speaker 1: allow it. Why grant cartel like authority to people who

1190
01:24:59,320 --> 01:25:03,920
Speaker 1: have already proven back twenty two years ago that they're

1191
01:25:03,960 --> 01:25:08,880
Speaker 1: not above playing very dirty politics in order to get

1192
01:25:08,920 --> 01:25:12,360
Speaker 1: what they want, like they did when they struck that

1193
01:25:12,520 --> 01:25:16,040
Speaker 1: bargain with Jim Doyle to make the current compacts back

1194
01:25:16,080 --> 01:25:20,080
Speaker 1: in two thousand and three permanent, we are still dealing

1195
01:25:20,160 --> 01:25:23,960
Speaker 1: with that, ladies and gentlemen. It's the reason the Kenosha

1196
01:25:24,040 --> 01:25:29,200
Speaker 1: casino died because Wisconsin would have had to pay one

1197
01:25:29,240 --> 01:25:33,760
Speaker 1: hundred million dollars plus to Potauatomy for a violation of

1198
01:25:33,760 --> 01:25:39,559
Speaker 1: the game and compact. If we're going to allow online betting,

1199
01:25:40,080 --> 01:25:42,400
Speaker 1: and that's a discussion I think we can have as

1200
01:25:42,439 --> 01:25:47,120
Speaker 1: a state. We can allow online betting. Draft kings can

1201
01:25:47,160 --> 01:25:51,240
Speaker 1: put their servers wherever they dog one well please, and

1202
01:25:51,600 --> 01:25:55,960
Speaker 1: since they're providing the service, they can keep their profits.

1203
01:25:55,960 --> 01:25:57,800
Speaker 1: All right, We're gonna step aside for a break. We

1204
01:25:57,880 --> 01:26:01,719
Speaker 1: are going to get into election night politics. A complete

1205
01:26:01,720 --> 01:26:22,240
Speaker 1: preview coming up next. All right, hard to believe since

1206
01:26:22,280 --> 01:26:24,920
Speaker 1: we just, you know, went through all of this a

1207
01:26:25,000 --> 01:26:29,360
Speaker 1: year ago, but it is election night in America tonight.

1208
01:26:29,439 --> 01:26:33,920
Speaker 1: A very small portion of America Virginia governor's race, New

1209
01:26:34,000 --> 01:26:36,400
Speaker 1: Jersey governor's race, and of course the one that has

1210
01:26:36,600 --> 01:26:40,840
Speaker 1: generated by far the most national attention New York City

1211
01:26:41,120 --> 01:26:44,840
Speaker 1: mayors races all on the ballot tonight. Holes are going

1212
01:26:44,880 --> 01:26:48,559
Speaker 1: to close very very shortly, and frankly, folks, I think

1213
01:26:48,600 --> 01:26:52,160
Speaker 1: we're going to get results a lot quicker than many

1214
01:26:52,240 --> 01:26:54,320
Speaker 1: of us on the right would hope welcome back to

1215
01:26:54,320 --> 01:26:59,479
Speaker 1: the Dan o'donald show. It is conservative thought, not just talk.

1216
01:27:00,600 --> 01:27:03,840
Speaker 1: Pull out a couple of days ago gave people who

1217
01:27:03,880 --> 01:27:08,960
Speaker 1: want to stop Zoran Mamdani the open communists, not even

1218
01:27:09,000 --> 01:27:12,840
Speaker 1: a socialist, but the communist who has been the front

1219
01:27:12,920 --> 01:27:16,400
Speaker 1: runner for New York City mayor really this entire cycle

1220
01:27:16,439 --> 01:27:19,639
Speaker 1: ever since. He rang up a surprise win that really

1221
01:27:19,680 --> 01:27:21,840
Speaker 1: shouldn't have been a surprise win if you know the

1222
01:27:21,840 --> 01:27:26,000
Speaker 1: Modern Democratic Party. In that Democrat primary several months ago,

1223
01:27:26,439 --> 01:27:31,080
Speaker 1: Andrew Cuomo is running as an independent, and the Republican

1224
01:27:31,280 --> 01:27:35,439
Speaker 1: Party candidate is Curtis Sliwa, best known as the guy

1225
01:27:35,479 --> 01:27:38,719
Speaker 1: who always wears the beret and red jacket. He became

1226
01:27:38,840 --> 01:27:42,680
Speaker 1: famous years and years decades ago for patrolling the New

1227
01:27:42,760 --> 01:27:45,680
Speaker 1: York City subways and streets of New York as the

1228
01:27:45,760 --> 01:27:49,160
Speaker 1: founder of the Guardians, back when New York was just

1229
01:27:49,200 --> 01:27:53,000
Speaker 1: a crime infested hell hole. People, I think who didn't

1230
01:27:53,040 --> 01:27:57,360
Speaker 1: grow up before the Rudy Giuliani miracle of the nineteen

1231
01:27:57,439 --> 01:28:00,760
Speaker 1: nineties didn't quite realize how bad and how much of

1232
01:28:00,760 --> 01:28:04,280
Speaker 1: a no go zone New York, especially Times Square, which

1233
01:28:04,439 --> 01:28:08,760
Speaker 1: kind of became a symbol of New York's precipitous decline,

1234
01:28:09,160 --> 01:28:12,400
Speaker 1: how much of just a no go zone really it was.

1235
01:28:13,000 --> 01:28:16,880
Speaker 1: And the fear is that Zorn Mamdani in a way

1236
01:28:16,960 --> 01:28:21,240
Speaker 1: that even the open socialist Bill Deblasio as disastrous a

1237
01:28:21,240 --> 01:28:25,000
Speaker 1: mayor as he was following a couple of pretty good

1238
01:28:25,080 --> 01:28:28,919
Speaker 1: mayors in Michael Bloomberg, who yes was a Liberal Democrat,

1239
01:28:28,920 --> 01:28:32,280
Speaker 1: actually ran as a Republican one as a Republican then

1240
01:28:32,400 --> 01:28:36,080
Speaker 1: switched parties, and of course Juliani, who was mayor from

1241
01:28:36,120 --> 01:28:40,200
Speaker 1: the nineteen nineties through just after nine to eleven, New

1242
01:28:40,280 --> 01:28:43,519
Speaker 1: York reverted back to form. The voters went to the

1243
01:28:43,720 --> 01:28:46,760
Speaker 1: hard left candidate in Bill de Blasio, and there was

1244
01:28:46,800 --> 01:28:50,040
Speaker 1: a tremendous amount of backsliding. Then, of course they elected

1245
01:28:50,120 --> 01:28:56,360
Speaker 1: as kind of a backlash to the open socialism and

1246
01:28:56,479 --> 01:29:01,519
Speaker 1: the just anti police administration of Deblasio, they elected a

1247
01:29:01,520 --> 01:29:05,280
Speaker 1: former police captain in Eric Adams. Now Adams, of course,

1248
01:29:05,479 --> 01:29:08,840
Speaker 1: was involved in corruption. There are those who believe that

1249
01:29:08,920 --> 01:29:13,439
Speaker 1: was a politically motivated prosecution by the Biden administration. He

1250
01:29:13,520 --> 01:29:16,880
Speaker 1: got a pardon from President Trump and that sort of

1251
01:29:17,280 --> 01:29:22,280
Speaker 1: ended his reelection bid. He eventually suspended his campaign much

1252
01:29:22,360 --> 01:29:27,080
Speaker 1: too late. I fear to stop Zorn Mamdani and Curtis

1253
01:29:27,080 --> 01:29:30,120
Speaker 1: Sliwa has thus far refused to get out of the race.

1254
01:29:30,160 --> 01:29:33,960
Speaker 1: Now a lot of people are blaming Sliwa because all

1255
01:29:34,040 --> 01:29:37,400
Speaker 1: he is doing is helping to split the anti Mom

1256
01:29:37,520 --> 01:29:41,640
Speaker 1: Donnie vote, And the thinking is that a bunch of

1257
01:29:41,680 --> 01:29:45,800
Speaker 1: Republicans would just vote for Andrew Cuomo forgetting that it's

1258
01:29:46,000 --> 01:29:51,879
Speaker 1: Andrew Cuomo, the same Andrew Cuomo who basically sent nursing

1259
01:29:51,920 --> 01:29:55,920
Speaker 1: home residents to their deaths during COVID nineteen. Of course,

1260
01:29:56,000 --> 01:30:00,240
Speaker 1: all of the sexual stuff that ultimately led to his

1261
01:30:00,360 --> 01:30:03,720
Speaker 1: resignation and disgrace as governor of New York. He is

1262
01:30:03,920 --> 01:30:07,919
Speaker 1: a fundamentally flawed candidate, and in fact, you could argue

1263
01:30:08,360 --> 01:30:13,040
Speaker 1: that he is probably the worst candidate that moderate Democrats,

1264
01:30:13,080 --> 01:30:16,320
Speaker 1: if such a thing even exists in New York anymore,

1265
01:30:16,600 --> 01:30:21,519
Speaker 1: could possibly run to stop the commie Mom Donnie. Now

1266
01:30:21,920 --> 01:30:25,720
Speaker 1: here's a little quirk about New York's ballots. Would you

1267
01:30:25,840 --> 01:30:30,679
Speaker 1: believe that Mom Donnie is on the ballot twice, both

1268
01:30:30,720 --> 01:30:33,839
Speaker 1: on the top row. He is the Democratic Party nominee,

1269
01:30:33,920 --> 01:30:39,519
Speaker 1: is also the Democratic Socialist nominee, whereas Andrew Cuomo is

1270
01:30:39,600 --> 01:30:43,439
Speaker 1: sort of in the bottom right somewhere, as is Curtis Sliwa.

1271
01:30:44,280 --> 01:30:46,600
Speaker 1: Anyone who believes a poll that came out just a

1272
01:30:46,640 --> 01:30:50,240
Speaker 1: couple of days ago showing that Cuomo was just five

1273
01:30:50,320 --> 01:30:55,920
Speaker 1: points behind Mom Donnie, I think is looking a little

1274
01:30:55,960 --> 01:31:01,000
Speaker 1: bit too hard for hope. That probably isn't there, folks.

1275
01:31:01,720 --> 01:31:04,960
Speaker 1: I would be shocked if zorn Mam Donnie does not

1276
01:31:05,240 --> 01:31:08,360
Speaker 1: win the mayoral election tonight, and does not win it

1277
01:31:08,840 --> 01:31:13,360
Speaker 1: by about eight or nine points. He simply has too

1278
01:31:13,400 --> 01:31:16,160
Speaker 1: strong of a base. And yes, a lot has been

1279
01:31:16,200 --> 01:31:19,440
Speaker 1: made out of the fact that native born New Yorkers

1280
01:31:19,840 --> 01:31:26,280
Speaker 1: actually prefer Andrew Cuomo, whereas foreign born voters and those

1281
01:31:26,360 --> 01:31:31,080
Speaker 1: who have sort of bougie white Upper East Side liberal backgrounds.

1282
01:31:31,120 --> 01:31:33,960
Speaker 1: But primarily if you just go based on who was

1283
01:31:34,040 --> 01:31:36,800
Speaker 1: born in the United States of America and who was

1284
01:31:36,840 --> 01:31:40,880
Speaker 1: born overseas and has become a citizen and gotten the

1285
01:31:40,960 --> 01:31:43,960
Speaker 1: right to vote, who is eligible to vote in New

1286
01:31:44,040 --> 01:31:49,400
Speaker 1: York City elections, I should say they overwhelmingly favor Mom Donnie,

1287
01:31:49,400 --> 01:31:54,719
Speaker 1: whereas native born New Yorkers native born Americans actually favor Cuomo.

1288
01:31:55,280 --> 01:31:57,680
Speaker 1: And this has led to a whole lot of questions

1289
01:31:57,760 --> 01:32:00,840
Speaker 1: because Mom Donnie was born in you Go and only

1290
01:32:00,880 --> 01:32:03,559
Speaker 1: came to this country a short time ago, folks. That

1291
01:32:03,720 --> 01:32:08,320
Speaker 1: to me is completely secondary to the real issue at

1292
01:32:08,360 --> 01:32:11,520
Speaker 1: play here, and that is that there is a substantial

1293
01:32:11,720 --> 01:32:15,639
Speaker 1: number of Democrats liberals not just in New York City,

1294
01:32:16,360 --> 01:32:21,400
Speaker 1: but also in Minneapolis, where it looks like another socialist,

1295
01:32:21,840 --> 01:32:24,880
Speaker 1: Omar Fatte, is going to be the next mayor of

1296
01:32:25,000 --> 01:32:29,240
Speaker 1: that city. That there is a significant faction in the

1297
01:32:29,240 --> 01:32:33,960
Speaker 1: Democratic Party, which I think now clearly constitutes a majority

1298
01:32:34,520 --> 01:32:39,360
Speaker 1: that wants communism. That doesn't just want the lipstick on

1299
01:32:39,439 --> 01:32:43,880
Speaker 1: the pig that is democratic socialism, that they want the

1300
01:32:44,400 --> 01:32:50,320
Speaker 1: entire animal farm, if you will. They want a communistic

1301
01:32:50,520 --> 01:32:53,960
Speaker 1: government that is going to impose price controls in the

1302
01:32:54,000 --> 01:32:59,320
Speaker 1: form of rent freezes on apartments, thereby decimating supply and

1303
01:32:59,439 --> 01:33:03,080
Speaker 1: paradoct hurting people who are looking to rent their first

1304
01:33:03,080 --> 01:33:06,720
Speaker 1: apartment and helping those who have been in their apartments

1305
01:33:07,120 --> 01:33:11,800
Speaker 1: forever by creating artificial scarcity and ensuring that those who

1306
01:33:11,840 --> 01:33:15,479
Speaker 1: are in their apartments already will never ever ever move,

1307
01:33:15,560 --> 01:33:20,400
Speaker 1: There will never ever ever be any housing turnover for

1308
01:33:20,600 --> 01:33:23,960
Speaker 1: younger people who want to start at life in New York.

1309
01:33:24,439 --> 01:33:30,800
Speaker 1: He also wants government controlled grocery stores. Now this sounds like,

1310
01:33:30,880 --> 01:33:33,679
Speaker 1: oh well, it's little more than a co Op Dan. Well,

1311
01:33:33,960 --> 01:33:36,720
Speaker 1: no it's not, and in fact, this exact thing just

1312
01:33:36,840 --> 01:33:42,920
Speaker 1: failed spectacularly in Kansas City. He wants to nationalize, or

1313
01:33:43,200 --> 01:33:47,639
Speaker 1: I guess in this case, municipalize, the means of production

1314
01:33:47,800 --> 01:33:52,120
Speaker 1: or the distribution of the most basic thing that we

1315
01:33:52,200 --> 01:33:56,080
Speaker 1: all need, and that's food. I mean, this is open

1316
01:33:56,400 --> 01:34:02,800
Speaker 1: communism here. He wants to make childcare free, ensuring that

1317
01:34:03,080 --> 01:34:07,120
Speaker 1: nobody is able to have access to child care. What

1318
01:34:07,160 --> 01:34:10,559
Speaker 1: do you think is going to happen if all of

1319
01:34:10,600 --> 01:34:16,640
Speaker 1: a sudden, millions of people in New York with daycare

1320
01:34:16,760 --> 01:34:19,360
Speaker 1: aged kids, or at least hundreds of thousands of people

1321
01:34:19,800 --> 01:34:23,240
Speaker 1: suddenly have access to a free service when there aren't

1322
01:34:23,280 --> 01:34:27,880
Speaker 1: suddenly hundreds of thousands or tens of thousands more daycare providers.

1323
01:34:27,960 --> 01:34:31,280
Speaker 1: What do you think is going to happen to the

1324
01:34:31,360 --> 01:34:34,120
Speaker 1: system there? Well, I think it's obvious. But the point

1325
01:34:34,200 --> 01:34:38,960
Speaker 1: is is that Democrat voters don't care about that sort

1326
01:34:38,960 --> 01:34:45,040
Speaker 1: of thing. Democrat voters don't honestly have any concern about

1327
01:34:45,080 --> 01:34:48,080
Speaker 1: how this stuff is going to work in practice. They

1328
01:34:48,200 --> 01:34:52,920
Speaker 1: simply want the communists. They simply want and frankly, folks,

1329
01:34:53,240 --> 01:34:57,400
Speaker 1: they've wanted this for the past several election cycles. The

1330
01:34:57,439 --> 01:35:02,080
Speaker 1: Democratic National Committee was just enough to rig the primaries

1331
01:35:02,120 --> 01:35:06,960
Speaker 1: against Bernie Sanders three straight times, well at least twice

1332
01:35:06,960 --> 01:35:10,679
Speaker 1: against Bernie Sanders and once in favor of Kamala Harris

1333
01:35:10,680 --> 01:35:14,719
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four, to ensure that Democrat voters wouldn't

1334
01:35:14,720 --> 01:35:18,799
Speaker 1: do something stupid and nominate a communist that Middle America

1335
01:35:18,800 --> 01:35:23,320
Speaker 1: would just never ever ever vote for, and said communist

1336
01:35:23,320 --> 01:35:27,680
Speaker 1: would lose a general election. Well, in New York, voters

1337
01:35:27,960 --> 01:35:33,360
Speaker 1: can be left to their own horrible impulses because every

1338
01:35:33,479 --> 01:35:38,280
Speaker 1: single person, it seems in the Democrat Party thinks like

1339
01:35:38,400 --> 01:35:41,960
Speaker 1: them and does not have a concern obviously about how

1340
01:35:42,000 --> 01:35:44,880
Speaker 1: the rest of America thinks about this. All right, we

1341
01:35:44,960 --> 01:35:47,840
Speaker 1: went through the New York mayors race just to put

1342
01:35:47,880 --> 01:35:51,120
Speaker 1: a bow on that, folks. Absolutely, Mom, Donnie, I believe

1343
01:35:51,240 --> 01:35:53,280
Speaker 1: is going to win. You can call this a prediction

1344
01:35:54,040 --> 01:35:59,960
Speaker 1: that my guess is that he wins very very handy.

1345
01:36:00,080 --> 01:36:02,719
Speaker 1: Believe that this race is going to be called very

1346
01:36:02,760 --> 01:36:06,400
Speaker 1: shortly after the polls close. I could be wrong, and

1347
01:36:06,439 --> 01:36:09,880
Speaker 1: there are of course ten million mail in ballots. I'm

1348
01:36:09,920 --> 01:36:13,280
Speaker 1: sure that need to be counted, but we will of

1349
01:36:13,360 --> 01:36:16,479
Speaker 1: course keep you updated on that on social media. We

1350
01:36:16,520 --> 01:36:20,520
Speaker 1: will get to the New Jersey governor's race, where Republicans

1351
01:36:20,520 --> 01:36:22,880
Speaker 1: do actually have a chance at a potential pick up.

1352
01:36:22,960 --> 01:36:27,080
Speaker 1: The Virginia governor's race as well. The controversial dem Attorney

1353
01:36:27,160 --> 01:36:30,200
Speaker 1: general candidate who wishes death on pretty much every Republican

1354
01:36:30,240 --> 01:36:34,960
Speaker 1: and their kids is still pretty likely to win, which

1355
01:36:35,080 --> 01:36:38,280
Speaker 1: speaks volumes about where the Democrat Party is right now.

1356
01:36:38,320 --> 01:36:40,960
Speaker 1: We will get to that coming up next right here

1357
01:36:41,160 --> 01:36:42,400
Speaker 1: on the Dan o'dn.

1358
01:36:42,200 --> 01:37:12,679
Speaker 8: Show, Intelligent Discourse, irreverent fun.

1359
01:37:12,720 --> 01:37:15,680
Speaker 1: It is the Dan o'donald Show. Welcome back to it.

1360
01:37:16,040 --> 01:37:19,719
Speaker 1: New York mayoral race is taking up all of the attention,

1361
01:37:19,920 --> 01:37:23,000
Speaker 1: but a whole lot of cities. In fact, eighteen I

1362
01:37:23,040 --> 01:37:27,519
Speaker 1: believe that the largest cities in America, Seattle, Minneapolis among them,

1363
01:37:27,880 --> 01:37:30,680
Speaker 1: are having mayoral elections. I was actually just during that

1364
01:37:30,720 --> 01:37:34,200
Speaker 1: commercial break taking a look at some of the betting markets,

1365
01:37:34,800 --> 01:37:38,920
Speaker 1: or the prediction markets, which have become a very important

1366
01:37:39,080 --> 01:37:43,799
Speaker 1: part of election prognostication, and I had said that Omar

1367
01:37:43,920 --> 01:37:47,760
Speaker 1: Fate is likely to be the next mayor of Minneapolis.

1368
01:37:47,800 --> 01:37:51,120
Speaker 1: Well Calshi one of the biggest prediction markets along with

1369
01:37:51,960 --> 01:37:55,080
Speaker 1: predict it, and I think, oh, I'm trying to say

1370
01:37:54,800 --> 01:37:56,360
Speaker 1: that the other one is right. At the tip of

1371
01:37:56,400 --> 01:38:01,679
Speaker 1: my tongue. But Calshi actually has Jacob from the incumbent mayor,

1372
01:38:02,080 --> 01:38:05,679
Speaker 1: who did not get the Democratic Socialist or Democrat Farm

1373
01:38:05,720 --> 01:38:08,080
Speaker 1: and Labor excuse me, Democrat Farm and Labor, which is

1374
01:38:08,080 --> 01:38:11,720
Speaker 1: what they call the Democratic Party out in Minnesota. He

1375
01:38:11,760 --> 01:38:14,720
Speaker 1: didn't get their endorsement. Fonte did, and then there was

1376
01:38:14,760 --> 01:38:17,880
Speaker 1: a demonstration that there was a whole lot of wait

1377
01:38:17,960 --> 01:38:23,760
Speaker 1: for it, wait for it, vote fraud and irregularities when

1378
01:38:23,800 --> 01:38:29,519
Speaker 1: it came to the vote for that official endorsement. So

1379
01:38:29,680 --> 01:38:32,879
Speaker 1: that mayoral race was a mess. And Fry is actually

1380
01:38:33,240 --> 01:38:37,639
Speaker 1: at about eighty four percent if I am reading this correctly,

1381
01:38:37,720 --> 01:38:43,679
Speaker 1: eighty four percent chance of winning in that Minnesota mayoral election. Boy,

1382
01:38:43,680 --> 01:38:46,360
Speaker 1: you had to feel bad for him. The guy knelt

1383
01:38:46,560 --> 01:38:52,120
Speaker 1: and wept at George Floyd's golden casket five years ago

1384
01:38:52,240 --> 01:38:56,360
Speaker 1: in one of the more shameful displays of the excesses

1385
01:38:56,439 --> 01:39:00,799
Speaker 1: of the woke left era in America, and he couldn't

1386
01:39:00,920 --> 01:39:06,400
Speaker 1: even get the Democratic Farm and Labor nomination the next

1387
01:39:06,400 --> 01:39:08,680
Speaker 1: time he's up. I mean, just poor guy. Poor guy

1388
01:39:08,800 --> 01:39:14,320
Speaker 1: prostrated himself before the altar of woke liberalism, and it

1389
01:39:14,360 --> 01:39:16,240
Speaker 1: still wouldn't have been enough. But it does look like

1390
01:39:16,360 --> 01:39:20,080
Speaker 1: he is going to survive there. I'm also looking at

1391
01:39:20,120 --> 01:39:24,479
Speaker 1: these prediction markets in the two big gubernatorial elections on

1392
01:39:24,520 --> 01:39:30,200
Speaker 1: the ballot tonight in Virginia, where Democrat Abigail Spanberger has

1393
01:39:30,280 --> 01:39:34,400
Speaker 1: now a ninety eight percent chance of winning over Republican

1394
01:39:34,760 --> 01:39:38,960
Speaker 1: Winsome Earl Sears. The current lieutenant governor. Term limits very

1395
01:39:39,000 --> 01:39:43,760
Speaker 1: strict term limits in Virginia. You actually can't run for reelection,

1396
01:39:43,880 --> 01:39:47,080
Speaker 1: which is why the very very popular and very very

1397
01:39:47,120 --> 01:39:51,120
Speaker 1: good governor of Virginia, Glenn Youngkin, who won in twenty

1398
01:39:51,160 --> 01:39:55,040
Speaker 1: twenty one, is not seeking reelection because simply he can't.

1399
01:39:55,120 --> 01:39:59,040
Speaker 1: So his lieutenant governor was seeking election in his stead,

1400
01:39:59,240 --> 01:40:05,320
Speaker 1: and Sear is just Virginia is reverting to form, I think,

1401
01:40:05,360 --> 01:40:08,439
Speaker 1: and what we can now see in the twenty twenty

1402
01:40:08,439 --> 01:40:13,200
Speaker 1: one Virginia gubernatorial election is that that was a response,

1403
01:40:13,240 --> 01:40:18,760
Speaker 1: a direct response to immediately how disastrous a presidency Joe

1404
01:40:18,800 --> 01:40:22,160
Speaker 1: Biden's really was. Remember, the election took place just a

1405
01:40:22,200 --> 01:40:28,120
Speaker 1: couple of months after the truly unfathomably incompetent and deadly

1406
01:40:28,160 --> 01:40:31,280
Speaker 1: pull out from Afghanistan, and that marked the beginning of

1407
01:40:31,320 --> 01:40:34,040
Speaker 1: the end of Joe Biden's presidency. I'm not sure if

1408
01:40:34,040 --> 01:40:36,160
Speaker 1: anybody really knew it at the time. I can remember

1409
01:40:37,280 --> 01:40:42,000
Speaker 1: looking at the sort of death cross of his favorable

1410
01:40:42,040 --> 01:40:45,559
Speaker 1: and unfavorable numbers. If you look at the whole of

1411
01:40:45,600 --> 01:40:48,719
Speaker 1: Biden's presidency and you do like daily, you know, tracking

1412
01:40:48,800 --> 01:40:51,719
Speaker 1: numbers of you know, is the president doing a good job.

1413
01:40:52,280 --> 01:40:58,800
Speaker 1: The point at which unfavorable opinion met and surpassed favorable

1414
01:40:58,800 --> 01:41:02,479
Speaker 1: opinion was the exaus zact moment in August of twenty

1415
01:41:02,560 --> 01:41:06,160
Speaker 1: twenty one, where that Afghanistan pull out happened and Biden

1416
01:41:06,240 --> 01:41:08,840
Speaker 1: never recovered. And then of course his you can also

1417
01:41:09,080 --> 01:41:14,240
Speaker 1: chart his favorability ratings right along with his cognition. They

1418
01:41:14,280 --> 01:41:20,400
Speaker 1: both seem to be declining pretty consistently and pretty precipitously together.

1419
01:41:20,640 --> 01:41:27,920
Speaker 1: But that election is That election is I think now

1420
01:41:28,000 --> 01:41:31,320
Speaker 1: properly seen as just a referendum on Biden. It was

1421
01:41:31,400 --> 01:41:34,080
Speaker 1: the first chance voters had a chance to say, hey, wait,

1422
01:41:34,560 --> 01:41:36,479
Speaker 1: we do not like this president, we do not like

1423
01:41:36,520 --> 01:41:39,439
Speaker 1: what Democrats are doing to the country. We're sick of

1424
01:41:39,479 --> 01:41:42,280
Speaker 1: the COVID nonsense. We want to move forward. And Youngkin

1425
01:41:42,400 --> 01:41:46,280
Speaker 1: was a very charismatic, very good political figure, and there

1426
01:41:46,320 --> 01:41:48,439
Speaker 1: was a Republican sweep for the first time in years

1427
01:41:48,439 --> 01:41:52,400
Speaker 1: and years and years. Winsom Earl Sears was part of that.

1428
01:41:53,160 --> 01:41:57,799
Speaker 1: But we also now have an open seat for attorney

1429
01:41:57,840 --> 01:42:01,120
Speaker 1: general and the Democrat I don't even know the name

1430
01:42:01,160 --> 01:42:03,880
Speaker 1: of the Republican Frankly, who's running for lieutenant governor doesn't

1431
01:42:03,880 --> 01:42:06,840
Speaker 1: really matter. The attorney general's race is where all the

1432
01:42:06,880 --> 01:42:11,120
Speaker 1: action has been. Jason Jones is just a complete and

1433
01:42:11,280 --> 01:42:15,920
Speaker 1: total turd. Text messages reveal that not only did he

1434
01:42:16,080 --> 01:42:19,559
Speaker 1: wish death once upon a time to the then speaker

1435
01:42:19,640 --> 01:42:23,880
Speaker 1: Republican Speaker of the Virginia House of Representatives, he also,

1436
01:42:24,160 --> 01:42:29,680
Speaker 1: in subsequent messages wished death upon his children so that

1437
01:42:29,840 --> 01:42:32,760
Speaker 1: the Speaker of the House would finally be forced to

1438
01:42:32,880 --> 01:42:36,280
Speaker 1: come along to Jason Jones or j Jones and the

1439
01:42:37,680 --> 01:42:40,560
Speaker 1: liberal perspective on gun control or whatever the hell the

1440
01:42:40,680 --> 01:42:47,360
Speaker 1: issue du jour was that led to this insane text message. Now,

1441
01:42:47,439 --> 01:42:50,720
Speaker 1: this happened to be leaked right after the assassination of

1442
01:42:50,800 --> 01:42:55,280
Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk, when what seemed to be eighty percent of

1443
01:42:55,360 --> 01:42:59,920
Speaker 1: political liberals were openly celebrating online. I will refer you

1444
01:43:00,520 --> 01:43:05,920
Speaker 1: again to the numbers who are openly celebrating Dick Cheney's

1445
01:43:06,080 --> 01:43:08,479
Speaker 1: death today yes. For those who didn't hear, we covered

1446
01:43:08,520 --> 01:43:11,360
Speaker 1: it earlier in the show. Dick Cheney passed away at

1447
01:43:11,360 --> 01:43:15,280
Speaker 1: the age of eighty four. Although dick Cheney spoke out

1448
01:43:15,280 --> 01:43:19,679
Speaker 1: against President Trump routinely in the latter part of his life,

1449
01:43:19,760 --> 01:43:21,680
Speaker 1: so maybe he gets a little bit of grace from

1450
01:43:21,720 --> 01:43:24,240
Speaker 1: at least the traditional press, but not so from the J.

1451
01:43:24,520 --> 01:43:28,160
Speaker 1: Jones wing of the Democrat Party, who is likely very

1452
01:43:28,200 --> 01:43:32,679
Speaker 1: privately celebrating dick Cheney's demise. There was also an incident

1453
01:43:32,840 --> 01:43:35,879
Speaker 1: in which he was doing one hundred and sixteen miles

1454
01:43:35,920 --> 01:43:40,280
Speaker 1: an hour and was supposed to do community service to

1455
01:43:40,320 --> 01:43:42,120
Speaker 1: make up for it. He gets a slap on the wrist,

1456
01:43:42,160 --> 01:43:44,840
Speaker 1: of course, for a reckless driving, and he does it

1457
01:43:44,920 --> 01:43:48,280
Speaker 1: at his own political foundation. So he's doing political work,

1458
01:43:48,560 --> 01:43:52,400
Speaker 1: and the judge allows this to be charity work. This

1459
01:43:52,880 --> 01:43:57,840
Speaker 1: is community service in the world of Democrat politics. So

1460
01:43:58,520 --> 01:44:03,240
Speaker 1: Jason Miarez is is the very good Republican candidate who

1461
01:44:03,439 --> 01:44:07,240
Speaker 1: is it seems now, at least according to the betting market,

1462
01:44:07,600 --> 01:44:10,759
Speaker 1: with a fifty six percent chance of winning. It would

1463
01:44:10,760 --> 01:44:14,840
Speaker 1: not shock me, folks if Spanberger gets a bigger than

1464
01:44:14,920 --> 01:44:19,480
Speaker 1: expected margin of victory, which is entirely possible in Virginia

1465
01:44:19,640 --> 01:44:22,200
Speaker 1: as a result of the backlash to Trump and the

1466
01:44:22,800 --> 01:44:26,000
Speaker 1: federal layoffs and the shutdown and all this. Remember, Virginia

1467
01:44:26,560 --> 01:44:31,479
Speaker 1: is one hundred percent decided now by federal workers. They're

1468
01:44:31,520 --> 01:44:34,519
Speaker 1: all living in Virginia, in the suburbs around Washington, d C.

1469
01:44:34,640 --> 01:44:37,599
Speaker 1: And they have an outsize influence over the rest of

1470
01:44:37,840 --> 01:44:41,000
Speaker 1: the state. So if you see a big win from

1471
01:44:41,080 --> 01:44:45,200
Speaker 1: Spanburger tonight, don't be surprised if that has down ballot

1472
01:44:45,280 --> 01:44:50,200
Speaker 1: effects and that actually propels Jay Jones to a win

1473
01:44:50,479 --> 01:44:54,719
Speaker 1: in the attorney general's race as well. Now, the election

1474
01:44:54,920 --> 01:44:59,160
Speaker 1: where Republicans are pinning a good amount of hope is

1475
01:44:59,240 --> 01:45:03,080
Speaker 1: in the governor's in New Jersey. New Jersey four years ago,

1476
01:45:03,560 --> 01:45:06,479
Speaker 1: very very nearly, I'm talking within a point or two

1477
01:45:07,000 --> 01:45:11,400
Speaker 1: went Republican again as a backlash to Joe Biden in

1478
01:45:11,439 --> 01:45:14,639
Speaker 1: his first few months in office. Again coming just after

1479
01:45:14,680 --> 01:45:17,680
Speaker 1: that disastrous Afghanistan pull out, which I think turned the

1480
01:45:17,800 --> 01:45:22,120
Speaker 1: entire country against Biden. You have got this year, Jack Chitarelli,

1481
01:45:22,200 --> 01:45:26,920
Speaker 1: the Republican going up against Mikey Cheryl. Now, Cheryl is

1482
01:45:27,560 --> 01:45:33,240
Speaker 1: very likely to win, and I do a lot of

1483
01:45:33,280 --> 01:45:38,040
Speaker 1: analysis of early vote trends and the early vote trends

1484
01:45:38,240 --> 01:45:43,000
Speaker 1: early on in the early in person voting period were

1485
01:45:43,040 --> 01:45:46,960
Speaker 1: not very good for Chitarelly. Remember last year when I

1486
01:45:47,080 --> 01:45:49,000
Speaker 1: was talking every day and I'm sure you were seeing

1487
01:45:49,040 --> 01:45:52,040
Speaker 1: this about just how well Republicans were doing in voter

1488
01:45:52,120 --> 01:45:57,479
Speaker 1: registration in the states where we can see where they

1489
01:45:57,520 --> 01:46:00,479
Speaker 1: have closed primaries, where you are a register voter, we

1490
01:46:00,520 --> 01:46:06,240
Speaker 1: could actually see what registered Republicans, what registered Democrats were

1491
01:46:06,360 --> 01:46:08,960
Speaker 1: turning in their ballots, and Republicans were just doing a

1492
01:46:09,000 --> 01:46:12,280
Speaker 1: phenomenal job in all of the states that they needed

1493
01:46:12,320 --> 01:46:13,960
Speaker 1: to do. And we were taking a look at the

1494
01:46:14,000 --> 01:46:16,760
Speaker 1: analysis of Wisconsin kind of by county and where you're

1495
01:46:16,880 --> 01:46:19,040
Speaker 1: likely to have a whole lot of Republicans. We don't

1496
01:46:19,080 --> 01:46:23,080
Speaker 1: have closed primaries. You don't register in this state as

1497
01:46:23,080 --> 01:46:25,720
Speaker 1: a Republican or a Democrat, so we can't tell totally

1498
01:46:26,560 --> 01:46:28,320
Speaker 1: who you're likely to vote for, but we can tell

1499
01:46:28,320 --> 01:46:32,160
Speaker 1: by geographic location. Well, early on in the early vote period,

1500
01:46:33,800 --> 01:46:36,959
Speaker 1: you did not see a whole lot of Republican turnout.

1501
01:46:37,360 --> 01:46:41,600
Speaker 1: I don't know if that was just sort of the

1502
01:46:41,720 --> 01:46:45,879
Speaker 1: idea that a Republican isn't going to win or something

1503
01:46:46,000 --> 01:46:49,320
Speaker 1: like that, but Chittarelli has really turned on the gas

1504
01:46:49,400 --> 01:46:52,160
Speaker 1: with respect to the last week or so of in

1505
01:46:52,240 --> 01:46:56,360
Speaker 1: person early voting. Is it going to matter because Mikey

1506
01:46:56,439 --> 01:46:59,160
Speaker 1: Cheryl the Democrat has what seems to be an almost

1507
01:46:59,160 --> 01:47:03,479
Speaker 1: insurmount lead in mail in balloting. If you're wondering why

1508
01:47:03,520 --> 01:47:07,960
Speaker 1: Democrats will never, ever, ever, ever ever give up mail

1509
01:47:08,000 --> 01:47:11,400
Speaker 1: in balloting until Republicans actually start kicking their butts at it,

1510
01:47:11,520 --> 01:47:14,160
Speaker 1: this is the reason. Because they see this as a

1511
01:47:14,280 --> 01:47:17,960
Speaker 1: massive advantage. Chitarelli is going to win today's vote. He's

1512
01:47:17,960 --> 01:47:21,720
Speaker 1: going to win the election day vote handily, overwhelmingly, and

1513
01:47:21,880 --> 01:47:26,120
Speaker 1: even though I believe he has likely slipped very slightly

1514
01:47:26,240 --> 01:47:30,800
Speaker 1: ahead in in person early voting, the male in voting

1515
01:47:30,840 --> 01:47:34,280
Speaker 1: advantage is just going to be so overwhelming for Cheryl

1516
01:47:34,800 --> 01:47:37,600
Speaker 1: that I wouldn't be surprised to see her win, but

1517
01:47:37,680 --> 01:47:40,559
Speaker 1: by a tighter margin. Then you might think, folks, let's

1518
01:47:40,560 --> 01:47:44,200
Speaker 1: not forget New Jersey is a Democrat state. It may

1519
01:47:44,280 --> 01:47:49,080
Speaker 1: be trending more Republican, it may be getting closer, but ultimately,

1520
01:47:49,280 --> 01:47:52,639
Speaker 1: just like Virginia, it is going to revert to form.

1521
01:47:52,720 --> 01:47:56,759
Speaker 1: You may see an anomalous election like Virginia four years ago,

1522
01:47:57,200 --> 01:48:00,200
Speaker 1: and like New Jersey nearly was four years ago, but

1523
01:48:00,320 --> 01:48:04,040
Speaker 1: when the Republicans control the White House, and it allows

1524
01:48:04,120 --> 01:48:07,720
Speaker 1: Democrat voters to get mad, and it allows Democrats to

1525
01:48:07,880 --> 01:48:10,719
Speaker 1: play on the anger of voters who are ticked off

1526
01:48:11,040 --> 01:48:14,559
Speaker 1: that their candidate lost last year in the presidential election.

1527
01:48:15,000 --> 01:48:18,400
Speaker 1: That's a very powerful motivator, and it's why in the

1528
01:48:18,439 --> 01:48:21,280
Speaker 1: midterm elections and in these off year elections, the party

1529
01:48:21,320 --> 01:48:24,439
Speaker 1: that does not control the White House typically does vary

1530
01:48:24,600 --> 01:48:28,600
Speaker 1: very well because their voters are more motivated, they're angrier,

1531
01:48:29,160 --> 01:48:31,960
Speaker 1: and therefore they are more likely to vote not out

1532
01:48:31,960 --> 01:48:34,960
Speaker 1: of spite, but just because they want to see their

1533
01:48:35,000 --> 01:48:37,760
Speaker 1: party win. All Right, you are listening to the Dan

1534
01:48:37,840 --> 01:48:41,800
Speaker 1: O'Donnell Show. I think that's all the analysis I can

1535
01:48:41,880 --> 01:48:45,840
Speaker 1: give about these out of state elections that have just

1536
01:48:45,920 --> 01:48:51,920
Speaker 1: been dominating Fox News and CNN discussion. I obviously like

1537
01:48:52,000 --> 01:48:55,400
Speaker 1: to turn my focus to Wisconsin politics, but yes, I

1538
01:48:55,479 --> 01:48:59,200
Speaker 1: will be a fount of information for you on any

1539
01:48:59,320 --> 01:49:02,640
Speaker 1: states politics. That's just what we do here on the

1540
01:49:02,760 --> 01:49:06,320
Speaker 1: Dan o'donald Show, and that's why we like to say

1541
01:49:06,880 --> 01:49:12,120
Speaker 1: it is a tour de force of well researched, well reasoned,

1542
01:49:12,600 --> 01:49:15,599
Speaker 1: and always rational, logical truth.

1543
01:49:15,680 --> 01:49:30,760
Speaker 4: We'll be right back in just a second.

1544
01:49:30,800 --> 01:49:32,960
Speaker 1: A couple of minutes here on the Dan o'donald show,

1545
01:49:33,040 --> 01:49:35,679
Speaker 1: just to sort of put a bow on our election

1546
01:49:35,920 --> 01:49:40,360
Speaker 1: night preview for all the big races New Jersey, Virginia,

1547
01:49:40,400 --> 01:49:44,040
Speaker 1: and New York City Mayor obviously the headliner tonight. In

1548
01:49:44,080 --> 01:49:50,120
Speaker 1: this off year, the prediction markets in all of these

1549
01:49:50,240 --> 01:49:55,439
Speaker 1: races have really and I mean really taken over as

1550
01:49:55,720 --> 01:49:58,599
Speaker 1: a way that people kind of I think, have a

1551
01:49:58,640 --> 01:50:03,760
Speaker 1: better understanding of how races are going to go. And

1552
01:50:04,120 --> 01:50:08,599
Speaker 1: this I think is a direct result of the thorough

1553
01:50:09,720 --> 01:50:12,400
Speaker 1: I don't want to say corruption because that's too strong

1554
01:50:12,439 --> 01:50:14,639
Speaker 1: of a word of the polling industry. There are very

1555
01:50:14,680 --> 01:50:17,639
Speaker 1: good pollsters out there. I happen to think Charles Franklin

1556
01:50:18,160 --> 01:50:21,080
Speaker 1: over at Marquette is one of them. I think he

1557
01:50:21,160 --> 01:50:24,760
Speaker 1: does great work with the Marquette University Law School poll.

1558
01:50:25,439 --> 01:50:29,360
Speaker 1: I think Trafalgar typically does a good job. Atlas Insights

1559
01:50:29,600 --> 01:50:33,479
Speaker 1: is a newer one. They're typically very good. But we

1560
01:50:33,600 --> 01:50:37,880
Speaker 1: just marked folks. One year since the gold standard of

1561
01:50:38,120 --> 01:50:42,920
Speaker 1: Iowa polsters and sells her You remember this, She actually

1562
01:50:42,920 --> 01:50:46,719
Speaker 1: put out a poll that showed Kamala Harris beating Trump

1563
01:50:47,160 --> 01:50:49,799
Speaker 1: by three points in Iowa. This was a week before

1564
01:50:49,920 --> 01:50:52,800
Speaker 1: the presidential election last year. A week before. It threw

1565
01:50:52,840 --> 01:50:56,160
Speaker 1: the entire thing into chaos. Oh my gosh, people thought,

1566
01:50:56,200 --> 01:50:59,080
Speaker 1: if Kamala is beating Trump, there she's gonna sweep the

1567
01:50:59,160 --> 01:51:02,640
Speaker 1: swing states and sells her she never misses well. A

1568
01:51:02,760 --> 01:51:06,679
Speaker 1: week later, Trump won Iowa by like twelve thirteen points.

1569
01:51:06,720 --> 01:51:09,759
Speaker 1: I mean, she could not have possibly been more off.

1570
01:51:10,479 --> 01:51:13,200
Speaker 1: And the question was why would she even put out

1571
01:51:13,280 --> 01:51:15,400
Speaker 1: that sort of pull. It was clearly a push pull.

1572
01:51:15,479 --> 01:51:20,040
Speaker 1: It was designed to manipulate public opinion and to give

1573
01:51:20,080 --> 01:51:23,080
Speaker 1: people the impression that Kamala Harris was going to do

1574
01:51:23,120 --> 01:51:26,479
Speaker 1: better than she was because of the interpretation of the

1575
01:51:26,520 --> 01:51:30,160
Speaker 1: betting markets, which were all tilting Trump at that point.

1576
01:51:30,240 --> 01:51:34,360
Speaker 1: Last year, people on the Harris side, I think we're

1577
01:51:34,400 --> 01:51:36,720
Speaker 1: getting a little dejected, like, oh my gosh, she's going

1578
01:51:36,760 --> 01:51:38,639
Speaker 1: to lose. Oh my gosh, she's going to lose. Well,

1579
01:51:38,680 --> 01:51:41,800
Speaker 1: when you get good news that a candidate is going

1580
01:51:41,840 --> 01:51:43,760
Speaker 1: to win, when you get that belief that they're going

1581
01:51:43,800 --> 01:51:47,200
Speaker 1: to win, it creates what's known as the bandwagon effect,

1582
01:51:47,600 --> 01:51:50,720
Speaker 1: and people will vote late deciders. This is why late

1583
01:51:50,800 --> 01:51:54,880
Speaker 1: breakers have a tendency to break for the eventual winner.

1584
01:51:54,960 --> 01:51:57,320
Speaker 1: Because of that bandwagon effect, everybody wants it well. I

1585
01:51:57,400 --> 01:52:00,519
Speaker 1: voted for the winner. I mean, it's totally alien people

1586
01:52:00,560 --> 01:52:04,240
Speaker 1: like us who actually have a well thought out political

1587
01:52:04,240 --> 01:52:09,280
Speaker 1: philosophy and wouldn't vote for Bill Clinton back in the

1588
01:52:09,360 --> 01:52:12,519
Speaker 1: day just because it appeared obvious in nineteen ninety six

1589
01:52:12,560 --> 01:52:14,360
Speaker 1: in the waiting days of that campaign that he was

1590
01:52:14,400 --> 01:52:18,040
Speaker 1: going to defeat Bob Dole. But people do vote like that.

1591
01:52:18,240 --> 01:52:21,320
Speaker 1: So the Sellzer poll was therefore something of a push pull.

1592
01:52:21,360 --> 01:52:24,960
Speaker 1: It was designed to impact public opinion rather than to

1593
01:52:25,120 --> 01:52:29,360
Speaker 1: actually gauge how this race was going. And the betting

1594
01:52:29,400 --> 01:52:35,200
Speaker 1: markets are sort of like a crowd sourced version of polsters,

1595
01:52:35,760 --> 01:52:38,800
Speaker 1: of polsters that have what would be a softer word

1596
01:52:38,880 --> 01:52:42,800
Speaker 1: of saying an industry that was corrupted, an industry that

1597
01:52:43,000 --> 01:52:47,679
Speaker 1: was taken over I think by political biases. And Selzer

1598
01:52:47,840 --> 01:52:51,640
Speaker 1: was just the biggest example that the worst example, the

1599
01:52:51,680 --> 01:52:55,000
Speaker 1: worst offender that I could come up with. One of

1600
01:52:55,040 --> 01:53:00,000
Speaker 1: the worst has long been Quinnipiac, which is always till

1601
01:53:00,360 --> 01:53:06,080
Speaker 1: towards Democrats. Quidipiac University or q PAC has always just

1602
01:53:06,120 --> 01:53:09,519
Speaker 1: been a very left leaning poll. And you can have

1603
01:53:09,720 --> 01:53:12,360
Speaker 1: polls that come out. I just saw a poll in

1604
01:53:12,360 --> 01:53:17,439
Speaker 1: the Wisconsin governor's race by Mandela Barnes's super pack that

1605
01:53:17,760 --> 01:53:23,200
Speaker 1: no surprise, shows Mandela Barnes trouncing the competition in the

1606
01:53:23,240 --> 01:53:27,320
Speaker 1: Democrat primary as well as trouncing Tom Tiffany, who is

1607
01:53:27,400 --> 01:53:31,160
Speaker 1: the front runner it seems for the Republican nomination in

1608
01:53:31,200 --> 01:53:35,680
Speaker 1: a general election. Oh yes, Mandela Barnes super pack. I

1609
01:53:35,840 --> 01:53:39,679
Speaker 1: definitely believe your poll that shows Mandela Barnes is an

1610
01:53:39,840 --> 01:53:45,559
Speaker 1: unbeatable candidate. No ulterior motive there. So, as we are

1611
01:53:45,600 --> 01:53:50,160
Speaker 1: now looking at these races in the past couple of weeks,

1612
01:53:50,360 --> 01:53:54,600
Speaker 1: I've been just amazed at how quickly and how mainstream

1613
01:53:55,520 --> 01:54:00,000
Speaker 1: the betting markets have gotten in terms of election analysis.

1614
01:54:00,320 --> 01:54:04,120
Speaker 1: And you could actually make a case that the betting markets,

1615
01:54:04,240 --> 01:54:07,720
Speaker 1: while they're not going to give you an accurate you

1616
01:54:07,720 --> 01:54:10,080
Speaker 1: know this guy is going to win fifty three to

1617
01:54:10,120 --> 01:54:13,120
Speaker 1: forty seven, look at the race where a pole is

1618
01:54:13,160 --> 01:54:16,120
Speaker 1: going to be much better at that. You could make

1619
01:54:16,160 --> 01:54:20,240
Speaker 1: the case that betting markets have sort of emerged as

1620
01:54:20,479 --> 01:54:24,880
Speaker 1: a way that you can more accurately get a quick

1621
01:54:24,960 --> 01:54:28,360
Speaker 1: glimpse a shorthand look into who's likely to win. Now,

1622
01:54:28,479 --> 01:54:32,480
Speaker 1: just to be clear, betting markets too can be manipulated.

1623
01:54:32,560 --> 01:54:35,320
Speaker 1: All it really takes is one or two big bets

1624
01:54:35,360 --> 01:54:38,000
Speaker 1: on a candidate, and all of the odds can be flipped.

1625
01:54:38,040 --> 01:54:41,000
Speaker 1: In fact, when Trump took over in the betting markets

1626
01:54:41,720 --> 01:54:46,000
Speaker 1: long about right around the debate last year with Kamala Harris,

1627
01:54:46,040 --> 01:54:48,400
Speaker 1: Harris's people said, well, look at all these big bets

1628
01:54:48,400 --> 01:54:51,400
Speaker 1: that are being placed on Trump. That's an intentional effort

1629
01:54:51,440 --> 01:54:55,160
Speaker 1: to manipulate markets. We shall see. We are going to

1630
01:54:55,200 --> 01:54:58,000
Speaker 1: have to wait long Eastern time zone and all that

1631
01:54:58,240 --> 01:55:02,280
Speaker 1: for the results Virginia, New Jersey, New York mayor, Seattle mayor,

1632
01:55:02,320 --> 01:55:06,080
Speaker 1: Minneapolis mayor, a whole bunch of elections across the country.

1633
01:55:06,480 --> 01:55:10,560
Speaker 1: We will be back tomorrow afternoon to break it all

1634
01:55:10,600 --> 01:55:13,520
Speaker 1: down for you right here on the Dan o'donald Show.
