1 00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:14,120 Speaker 1: Five O five A fifty five k r C the 2 00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:14,960 Speaker 1: talk station. 3 00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 2: Happy Tuesday, and that's the way the news goes Bigfoot. 4 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 1: I guess I'm sorry. I just found this article on 5 00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:43,240 Speaker 1: zero head who believes in Alien's big Foot and choop 6 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:45,040 Speaker 1: of Cobbird. I asked Joe if he'd seen it, and 7 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 1: he goes, oh, they were talking about big Foot in 8 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:48,720 Speaker 1: the overnight show, the Coast to Coast Show, which I 9 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:49,599 Speaker 1: always make fun of. 10 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 3: Hu huh. 11 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:54,639 Speaker 1: Anyway, Happy Tuesday. Brian Thomas right here, that's me, host 12 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 1: fifty five morning show. Feel in a good position to 13 00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 1: do that. And as I look down to the rundown 14 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:00,160 Speaker 1: this morning. At the tale end of the show at 15 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 1: eight thirty, as is the case every Tuesday, Daniel Davis 16 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 1: Deep Dive with retired Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Davis. We'll talk 17 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 1: about Roan, we'll talk about Mexican. I'm glad to see 18 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,680 Speaker 1: Mexico on the list there, given what's happening, and I 19 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:13,919 Speaker 1: wish all the best to President sein Baum and dealing 20 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:16,479 Speaker 1: with the cartels. Finally they're dealing with them at least 21 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,040 Speaker 1: in some measure, and let's hope that effort continues and 22 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 1: we're helping them widely reported our US intelligence work to 23 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 1: help find the Hollisco cartel head and blow him up. 24 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 1: So good anyway, that's my take on it, abbreviated as 25 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: it is. We'll get the latest on Russia and Ukraine. 26 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 1: You know, it's this is the fifth year. This is 27 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 1: the fifth year. I just can't believe that much time 28 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 1: has flown and that that conflict is still going on. 29 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:45,679 Speaker 1: I mean, how much time did you think it would 30 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 1: take for Russia to roll over Ukraine? Assuming nobody else intervened, 31 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 1: And obviously nobody really has. Obviously we threw a lot 32 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,279 Speaker 1: of military hardware the direction, but we haven't put boots 33 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 1: on the ground. Neither has the European Union and in 34 00:01:55,960 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: the NATO country. So okay, who thought the massive, nuclear 35 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 1: powered Russia would take four plus years to conquer Ukraine? 36 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: And the loss of life is reportedly, oh my word, 37 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:14,959 Speaker 1: it's insane. Russian military casualties total sum this accord to 38 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal. I'm just giving James Mason, who's 39 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,799 Speaker 1: the author of the article, as war enters, fifth year 40 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: Ukraine shows Russian victory has anything but inevitable. Draw your 41 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 1: own conclusions about the predictions, but one point two million casualties, 42 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: with three hundred and twenty five thousand deaths on just 43 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 1: the Russian side, more than double the numbers for Ukraine's. 44 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 1: That's the least according to information from the nonpartisan Center 45 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: for Strategic and Intelligent Studies. Listen, I'm just passing along 46 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: the figures. That's an amazing loss of life anyway. Daniel 47 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 1: Davis on that at eight thirty, preceded by the Inside Scoop. 48 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: It is Tuesday, we get the Inside Scoop, Bright part 49 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,119 Speaker 1: News Today. White House correspondent Nick gilbertson, We're talking about 50 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 1: the state of the Union tonight. He's going to be 51 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 1: give us his insight, and I guess what he expects, 52 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: what he thinks. Trump's gonna go over. How long it's 53 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: gonna last. I think the last one was ninety minutes. 54 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: And Trump does have a way of going off to script. 55 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: Love him or hate him, there is a reality that 56 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: Trump goes off script. I sometimes wish that he wouldn't. 57 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 1: Here we hear one of his press conferences. I appreciate 58 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 1: his willingness to speak off the cuff and not rely 59 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: on a teleprompter. Unlike prior ministrations. Boy, they couldn't do 60 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 1: anything that was unscripted, and that really bothers me. A 61 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: politician who's incapable of taking questions off script and dealing 62 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: with matters offscript, to me is someone who shouldn't be trusted. 63 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: And then there's Donald Trump, who will literally spend an 64 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: hour going off script. Tom Zwastowski the Return of We 65 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 1: the People Convention dot Org. Tom z Awastowski also on 66 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 1: the State of the Union. He'll be on at seven thirty. 67 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: I'm going in reverse order. Also, can he explain the 68 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: Republican Party in Ohio's endorsement Roberts Brigg over Marcel Stirbit 69 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:05,839 Speaker 1: Sprague won't come on the program. I asked Joe about 70 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: this the other day. A least Joe chimed in and Saidney, 71 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: we've asked him a bunch of times, won't come on 72 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: the program and listen, that's okay. I don't feel like 73 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: anybody needs to be on the fifty five Carosey Morning Show. 74 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 1: If you choose to, in many cases, it's going to 75 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: be a okay unless you've, of course, to some callers 76 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,719 Speaker 1: out there have been banned from the program for whatever 77 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: reason it may be, or maybe for cursing on the air. 78 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:31,840 Speaker 1: But he is a Republican and usually I think most 79 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,039 Speaker 1: most are in a safe space here on the fifty 80 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: five Casey Morning Show, although I will ask any questions 81 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,359 Speaker 1: that I think that come to mind. Marcel Sturbage has 82 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 1: been on. He fielded questions wonderfully. Quite impressed I was 83 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 1: with his ability to talk about the subject matter, the 84 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 1: importance of things, you know, his background, why he's running 85 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 1: for office. So, but a lot of concern and a 86 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: lot of among my listening audience, why would the Republican 87 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: part not allow a primary to go forward? Why can't 88 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 1: we exercise our choices in the primary and suggest to 89 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: the Republican Party what the Republicans who voted to the 90 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:14,480 Speaker 1: primary want. Good question, have you asked Alex Trump to 91 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 1: feed a little be on the program lately? Joe now recently? Well, 92 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,799 Speaker 1: maybe we can get him on. There's obviously a decision 93 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,160 Speaker 1: making process that goes into whether they will or will 94 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 1: not endorse ahead of a primary. So there's one we'll 95 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 1: talk with Tom about that preceeded by the taxpayer protection 96 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: lines Dave William protecting taxpayers dot org and what does 97 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:35,600 Speaker 1: Dave want to hear out of the State of the 98 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 1: Union address tonight? So anyway, Bigfoot, can we just start 99 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 1: off on a lighter note. I am surrounded by well 100 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: we'll call heady intense, problematic news stories. This one is 101 00:05:55,279 --> 00:06:01,840 Speaker 1: not so using data from you Gov, here we go aliens. 102 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 1: A lot of people believe in aliens. That's okay. I 103 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 1: think in the background is what do you believe? You 104 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 1: haven't seen any of this stuff, none of it, but 105 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 1: do you believe that it may be out there, definitely 106 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:23,599 Speaker 1: exists or probably exists. And that's where we find that 107 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 1: at least it's sins as far as aliens. Fifty six 108 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:31,039 Speaker 1: percent believe extra extraterrestrials definitely or probably exists. And I 109 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 1: think I can certainly understand that on some level, given 110 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 1: the vast, insane size of the universe, you'll be humbled 111 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 1: as a human being if you take any effort at 112 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,160 Speaker 1: all to really calculate how big we are on this 113 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: planet relative to everything that's around us. So in a 114 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 1: world that is so overwhelmingly huge that you can't even 115 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 1: fathom it, yeah, there's probably some kind of life floating 116 00:06:55,200 --> 00:07:01,039 Speaker 1: around out there, but you are not certain. Oh there's 117 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: a video, Yeah, well okay, sometimes that can be explained away. 118 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 1: Bigfoot twenty eight percent of Americans say Bigfoot probably or 119 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: definitely exists. And this is when I step back. You're 120 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,239 Speaker 1: not talking about something out in the great wide world 121 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: to hear the universe. You're talking about something on our globe. 122 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: And last time I check, Joe, are there are a 123 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 1: lot of cell phones and photographic devices out there. They've 124 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 1: been around for a long time, haven't they one or two? 125 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 1: And people carry them literally wherever they go, literally everywhere 126 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 1: they go. Not a single credible video or a photograph 127 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 1: of Bigfoot floating around out there. You kind of wonder 128 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 1: why that is so. Bigfoot good luck. Chupa cabra that 129 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 1: translates to goat sucker in Spanish, said to attack livestock, 130 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: particularly Latin America in the Southern United States tubacabra. Sixteen 131 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 1: percent believe it exists. Sixty percent say it does not. 132 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: And I'll go back to the idea that have you 133 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 1: ever seen one of the answer, of course, no, I haven't. 134 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: I can't believe people even believe in Bigfoot anymore. Anyway, 135 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: you choose, well, maybe to your own embarrassment, whether you 136 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 1: want to believe in something like that fun fact. Just 137 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 1: thought I throw it out there temporary is temporary? Right, 138 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: doesn't the word temporary suggest that it is not permanent? 139 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: Isn't that by definition what it is temporary? So if 140 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 1: something is temporary, don't hang your hat on it, because 141 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,079 Speaker 1: temporary is not permanent. Ergo it may go away. Governor 142 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 1: de Wine's upset. What is with his connection with the 143 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 1: Haitian community anyway? So Governor de Wine the other day 144 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 1: criticizing Trump's well ending temporary protected status for Haitians, he says, 145 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: it's wrong. Talk with CBS News face the nation. He 146 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: was defending Haitians living or working lead in Ohio, and 147 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 1: there's that word. My immediate reaction to that was because 148 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 1: I forgot what temporary protected status is. And then it's like, oh, 149 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: that's right. If you declare a nation and the individuals 150 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 1: coming from that nation to be subject to temporary protected 151 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 1: status that gives them the right to work in this country, 152 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: take away temporary they no longer have the right to 153 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 1: work in this country. They're in the category of illegal immigrant, which, 154 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: of course even Zohan Mandami recognizes does not allow you 155 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: to work lawfully in the United States. A lot of 156 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: folks in Springfield operating I guess on temporary protected status. 157 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: I think the policy to revoke it is wrong. I 158 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 1: don't think there's a consensus for taking people who are working, 159 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 1: who are supporting their family. And we've kind of seen 160 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 1: it in almost a micro way with the Haitian community 161 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 1: that's come into Springfield. Springfield industrial city, manufacturing city that 162 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 1: was down, it has been coming back, and frankly, one 163 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: of the reasons that's coming back is because the Haitians 164 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 1: who are working there. So I think the policy is wrong. 165 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: I guess I wonder in a world where there was 166 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 1: no temporary protected status for the Haitian community, would those 167 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:16,439 Speaker 1: jobs have gone have been left empty? If Springfield is 168 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: a manufacturing city that was down and has been coming back, 169 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: would that reality have been there or would have taken 170 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: place the coming back part in the absence of the 171 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: influx of twenty thousand or so Haitians into the Springfield community. 172 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 1: Would Springfield have remain static and dying and dead, even 173 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: though clearly there is a demand there for jobs to 174 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 1: be filled. I can't answer that question, but all I 175 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: know is you can be upset about the temporary status 176 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:47,319 Speaker 1: being removed. The fact is temporary is indeed temporary. Administration's 177 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 1: change policies change, and you can't rely on something that 178 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: is fundamentally not secure. So people who are fixing up 179 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 1: how this, opening restaurants, spending money and filling jobs that 180 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 1: couldn't be filled before. That's what Dwine said. We need 181 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:09,439 Speaker 1: them in a Hio. We're a state that is far 182 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 1: h that is far our out. Our influx of people 183 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: coming into state last year, seventy percent of those individuals 184 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 1: were four and born. They're giving us vibrancy and helping 185 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:22,079 Speaker 1: us and the fact that their working creates other jobs. Frankly, 186 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 1: well again, I just really question out loud, and I'd 187 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: love to know the answer. Wouldn't those jobs have been 188 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:37,439 Speaker 1: filled on their own in the absence of the influx 189 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 1: of the Haitian community. Answer the question, please let me know. 190 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 1: I'd love to hear from you.

So that's something 216 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 5: Ohio has to be proud of. Besides Dwine's illustrious career 217 00:12:53,760 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 5: as governor, which good segue, Man, I have yearned to hear. 218 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 5: Are we not saying phrasing anymore?

I know he and his wife 230 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 1: made missionary trips to Haiti for a long period of time. 231 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 1: That was their personal cause. So if we took Haiti 232 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: out and we made it any other country on the 233 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: planet Venezuela and temporary protected status ended or whatever, would 234 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 1: he be making these pleas and this expressing this exasperation 235 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 1: over the ending of that status since we don't have 236 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:48,079 Speaker 1: a massive quantity of people from any other country living 237 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: in Springfield. 238 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 4: Question Mark, absolutely not. 239 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 5: This is exactly what it looks like, which is a 240 00:13:54,840 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 5: governor putting his own preferences, spending on high own money 241 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:05,719 Speaker 5: and on his own preferences on some people group that 242 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 5: he wants to support to his hometown, which is Springfield. 243 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 4: So this is. 244 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 5: Bringing slave labor, low cost labor into the hometown folks 245 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 5: to maybe help I don't know, spike to start the 246 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 5: economy or improve the economy in Springfield. And my question 247 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 5: is day, so. 248 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 1: You're telling me that all these folks that are laboring 249 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 1: and working and providing for their families in Springfield are 250 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: of the Haitian community, that they are working for less 251 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 1: money than Americans would have worked for, I mean, lawful 252 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 1: citizens in the United States. 253 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 5: Huh yeah, yeah, that's true. And it's a shame we 254 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 5: don't have an attorney general or an auditor of state 255 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 5: or do we? 256 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 6: No? 257 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 5: Actually, I think we are paying for that, aren't we. 258 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 5: But boy, they are absolutely useless, you know, Dave Yost 259 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 5: and Keith Faber. I guess they roll up to the governor. 260 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 5: They shouldn't, but it seems like they will just do 261 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 5: Dewines bidding and look the other way. I would love 262 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 5: to know how much medicaid for aud is happening in 263 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 5: DeWine's hometown of Springfield, where his favorite favorite people group, 264 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 5: most favorite people group, Patians are and how much are 265 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 5: we spending on all of that would be a great question, 266 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 5: maybe for an auditor at attorneys General. They know this 267 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 5: is going on. This is the problem with the Ohio 268 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 5: Party and Brian, I've got a great idea how we 269 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 5: solve everything. Can we just spand Ohio and dissolve it 270 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 5: and just call it northern Florida or sell ourselves to 271 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,720 Speaker 5: Tennessee or Texas, one of those three. Let's just dissolve 272 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 5: this damn thing. We don't need this government in Ohio. 273 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 5: And whatever comes out of Tallahassee, Florida that Ronda Santus 274 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 5: wants to do, just apply it to us and we'll 275 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 5: be done with it. And I think that's how we 276 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 5: get less government for a bigger land. 277 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 1: Mask are you suggesting the Florida voters are smarter than 278 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 1: Ohio voters? 279 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 5: There, Jay, I'm saying economically, they seem to get more 280 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 5: right than wrong. Run where we're you know, well, I 281 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 5: think I think. I think for every dollar the day 282 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 5: spend and federal are are on state state tax, they 283 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 5: get fourteen dollars back in GDP, we're about six. 284 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, you know, listen, there's a playbook out there. 285 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 1: We could follow, maybe the playbook like of that Isuella 286 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 1: and go the way of socialism and watch our economy collapse. 287 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 1: Or we can follow the path that has been laid 288 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 1: before others like, for example, maybe they are running things 289 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 1: better than Ohio. In Florida. Let's take a look at 290 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 1: the numbers going money coming in, money going out, size 291 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 1: of real estate taxes, size of income taxes and all that. 292 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 1: Let's wait a second. How is it that a state 293 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 1: like Florida can manage the way they are running their 294 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 1: face so successfully and yet not have the level and 295 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 1: the onerous level of property tax and income tax burden 296 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 1: like we have in Ohio. It's really amazing, isn't it. 297 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 7: It is? 298 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 5: And they're getting ready to end their property tax too. 299 00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 5: I'm down here right now on business listening to you 300 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 5: on iHeart Cool. They're getting ready to end there, and 301 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 5: they probably will do it. We probably will talk about 302 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 5: it and they get scared and the voters will, you know, geez, 303 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 5: I don't know. Maybe we ought to keep it. So 304 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 5: I'm thinking we just dissolved Ohio and just a land mass. 305 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 5: We just hook ourselves they're the best state in the 306 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 5: Union and say we'll be part of that. 307 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, and be done with that. 308 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: You know, it's so weird about your statement's day And 309 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 1: if we were sitting in the state of New Jersey, 310 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 1: where was completely run by Democrats, and we could all 311 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,480 Speaker 1: point to the failures of their policies and their administration. 312 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,359 Speaker 1: We were like loan voices in an all blue wilderness. 313 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 1: Your statements, would you know, I would understand them. This 314 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 1: is a state that is really really read politically. And 315 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:39,919 Speaker 1: then you scratch your hand. You want to how in 316 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 1: the hell is it like compared to Florida.

Should men participate 341 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:07,200 Speaker 1: against women in sports? I would think uniformly everyone would 342 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 1: collectively agree that no, that's a stupid idea, it's unfair. 343 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:12,879 Speaker 1: And yet if you look at the polling, there's a 344 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 1: third of the people out there that think that's a okay. Look, 345 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 1: those are a third of the people that think chuop 346 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: a cobber's reel or something. So you can always find 347 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 1: something that someone's gonna believe, even if it's so fundamentally 348 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 1: dumb that logic and reason would just you know, require 349 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 1: you to just default believe that nobody could possibly believe that. Yeah, 350 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 1: just stumbled upon reality.

First of all, if there is alien life 354 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 7: out there, one of the reasons we probably haven't seen 355 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 7: them a lot is because they probably monitor what's going 356 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 7: on here. 357 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:56,360 Speaker 1: You don't want to have anything to do with this. 358 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 7: Yeah, if you're not from me, na, hell, would you 359 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 7: want to come here? 360 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:06,160 Speaker 1: Good point?

They sent out alert 363 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 7: to all other life on wherever that said you might 364 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 7: want not you might not want to go there. Yeah, 365 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 7: you mentioned that a third of the people believe in 366 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 7: something that's stupid. Well, think about the percentage of people 367 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 7: in this country that vote for Democrats after all that 368 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 7: we've seen, after all that's happened. And then of course 369 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 7: you know you have Jay regularly is founding on on 370 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:38,200 Speaker 7: Rhinos that the way people vote just tells you all 371 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 7: you need to know about how we just don't pay 372 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 7: enough attention and we vote with our feelings and you know, 373 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 7: and it's it's crazy that that we don't use our brains. 374 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:52,200 Speaker 7: That I mean, you use your brains, you know, to 375 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 7: balance your bank statement and look at how much money 376 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,680 Speaker 7: you're spending. And but you know, when it comes to 377 00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 7: getting in a voting booth, you're just like hut something else. 378 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 7: I don't understand it. 379 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 1: People don't pay attention. And we also we tend to 380 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,680 Speaker 1: elect people who want to be politicians, and there in 381 00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 1: lies a challenge for me. There's the vast majority of 382 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 1: are malignant narcissists. I mean, I think a Gavin Newsom 383 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 1: and some of the problems he just facing as a 384 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 1: result of of the things that come out of his mouth, 385 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 1: but what a polished, narcissistic self centered and I would 386 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,680 Speaker 1: love to use expletives right now. That's why I feel 387 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:30,440 Speaker 1: about Gavin Newsom. But he's illustrative of Yes, narcissistic, self 388 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 1: centered politicians are in it for their own fame, their 389 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,439 Speaker 1: own glory. They have no wit or care or concern 390 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,359 Speaker 1: about the people that they purport to represent, just in 391 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:40,640 Speaker 1: it for their own personal benefit. And that's what most 392 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 1: politicians run for name recognition. Well, I can't be a 393 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,440 Speaker 1: movie star, but I want to be loved by the people. 394 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:48,360 Speaker 1: I want to be known by the people I want 395 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 1: to be famous that those aspirations are shallow and well 396 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 1: sad empathetic. 397 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:59,120 Speaker 7: From my perspective, they and they know how to say 398 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 7: the thing you say. They get enough people to vote 399 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:05,119 Speaker 7: for them, and it's just the stuff they say. They 400 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 7: really can't do. They just they say they can and 401 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,920 Speaker 7: then then when it doesn't happen, they blame other people 402 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 7: for its not happening. And we're wondering what's going on 403 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 7: with Ohio. And you know, your three biggest metropolitan areas 404 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,679 Speaker 7: in Ohio are all very very deep blue as far 405 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,880 Speaker 7: as the local politics. Now, if you want to get 406 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,920 Speaker 7: elected to a state office, you know you have the 407 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 7: entire rest of the state that you've got to deal with. 408 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 7: And some of the people in the blue you know 409 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:39,120 Speaker 7: metropolitan areas are are conservative. They're not going to vote Democrat. 410 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 7: I'm one of those people. So state office holders have 411 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 7: to have to, uh, they got to do a better 412 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,719 Speaker 7: balancing act and trying to least act like they're conservative. 413 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:52,239 Speaker 7: They're therefore the term rhino. But you know, they they 414 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:54,880 Speaker 7: know that when they get in the state offices, they've 415 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 7: got to work with these people in these local governments. 416 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 7: Who are just extremely liberal. So you're not dealing with 417 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 7: people who are conservative, staunch conservative who believe in this 418 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 7: whole conservatism thing and want to put the policy in effect. 419 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:13,440 Speaker 7: You're dealing with people who know that they need to 420 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 7: be They need to at least sound conservative to get 421 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 7: elected to a state office, but they need to be 422 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 7: liberal enough to work with these local governments. And there's 423 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 7: your problem right there. You cannot cooperate with people who 424 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,960 Speaker 7: run liberal governments. They are doing it all wrong. There's 425 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 7: no working with them. You have to get rid of 426 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:35,920 Speaker 7: them and get rid of that whole philosophy and government, 427 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,720 Speaker 7: because that's what's ruining the country and the state and 428 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 7: the county and the city. You're in these liberal Democrat policies. 429 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,720 Speaker 7: There is no working with them and cooperating with them. 430 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,120 Speaker 7: You have to get rid of them. And that's where 431 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 7: the voters come in. Please pay attention, Please stop voting 432 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 7: with your feelings, and please don't vote Democrat. 433 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:58,200 Speaker 1: Have a great day, right, you do the same Apprecia 434 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,119 Speaker 1: hearing from you.

When 466 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 1: it comes to property taxes, that's very complicated thing. And 467 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,440 Speaker 1: I've said all day long, I'm more to see the 468 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 1: abolishment of property taxes just to see how elected officials 469 00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:27,119 Speaker 1: have to react to it. It did force them to 470 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 1: do so much work, I mean, dealing without property taxes, 471 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 1: all the various layers of government. We talked about that 472 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:35,399 Speaker 1: all the time with Americans for Prosperity Donovan and'eil like, 473 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: there's seven thousand different you know, subdivisions and in political 474 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:42,719 Speaker 1: subdivisions within the state, and each one of them has 475 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 1: its own taxation issues, all funded by property tax. If 476 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:50,400 Speaker 1: you undo that and make property tax unconstitutional to state, 477 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 1: that is going to be a challenge to deal with. 478 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 1: So I don't know that it's necessarily whether Republican or 479 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: Democrat in favor of property taxes. Are not The complications 480 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 1: that unfold as a consequence of eliminating them are? I 481 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 1: think more are too overwhelming for our political class to 482 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 1: even cope with, so much so they don't want to 483 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 1: do it. So, yeah, it's a great question. I'll agree 484 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 1: with you all day long, Larry, and I was laughing 485 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:14,680 Speaker 1: when you first said, is he really conservative? Or is 486 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 1: he some sort of wolf in sheep's clothing liberal. I 487 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 1: laugh at that only because we have to elect people 488 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 1: in order to find that out. In most cases, Oh 489 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 1: my god, we voted for so and so on the 490 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:25,920 Speaker 1: basis that he was fill in the blanket. It turned 491 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:27,920 Speaker 1: out he was polar opposite of that. What in the 492 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 1: hell do we do to ourselves? 493 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 8: Yep, manipulated by the party where that support him funded 494 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:37,439 Speaker 8: fund of his campaigns. 495 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:39,680 Speaker 1: I just think they wanted to make it easy on 496 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 1: that one. They figured that Viva Grammarswamy when they endorsed him, 497 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 1: was so far ahead of the polls that nobody else 498 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 1: really had a shot. I think the Republican Party was 499 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 1: just trying to save money so they didn't have to 500 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 1: fund a primary challenge. Now I don't know that it's 501 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:55,639 Speaker 1: right or wrong. I have a lot of listeners that 502 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:57,640 Speaker 1: are pissed off of the idea of the Republican Party 503 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 1: would would would endorse someone in advance of the primary, 504 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,200 Speaker 1: And I kind of share some of those concerns. Why 505 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 1: not give the people who choose to vote in the 506 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,160 Speaker 1: primary the opportunity to make their choices. The Republican Party 507 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 1: doesn't have to back what the primary the primary winner. 508 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 1: It can go off on its own. It's its own, 509 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:18,520 Speaker 1: separate entity. So yeah, I mean, great question. Why not 510 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:20,919 Speaker 1: vivk Ramaswamy has been on the program before. I'll ask 511 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 1: him next time he's on and we'll see if he 512 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,920 Speaker 1: gives us a definitive response. But don't overlook the realities. 513 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, hold us. 514 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:28,920 Speaker 8: You need to hold his speed to the fire too. 515 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 8: Don't be like these typical politicians and dance around it. 516 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,880 Speaker 8: Say just answer the question, do you support an abolishment 517 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 8: of property taxes in Ohio? 518 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:38,960 Speaker 5: Yes or no? 519 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 4: Not? 520 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:42,680 Speaker 8: Allow him to give you Well, that's a difficult question 521 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:44,159 Speaker 8: to answer because a blah blah this. 522 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 1: Well I would I would answer the question, yeah, yes, 523 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,399 Speaker 1: but I would have I mean, if you ask me 524 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 1: the direct question, I would say, Okay, your answer is yes, but. 525 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 5: Yes. 526 00:27:56,760 --> 00:28:00,399 Speaker 1: But it's it's a Charlie foxtrot, man. I mean, that's 527 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 1: really what it boils down to. It is insanely complicated, 528 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 1: unring the bell of property taxes. So okay, if you're 529 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:09,359 Speaker 1: a yes on abolishment of property taxes, then you need 530 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 1: to be armed with the ability to answer the question. Okay, 531 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 1: then what do you do to change the system? In 532 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 1: the absence of property taxes. Therein lies the ultimate challenge. 533 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 1: Do you have an answer to that question? Are you 534 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 1: willing to raise proper Are you willing to raise these 535 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 1: sales tax to whatever percentage that needs to be raised? 536 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 1: Are you willing to find other forms of revenue for 537 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 1: schools and everything else that's funded by a parks and 538 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 1: park districts. And we could go on and on and on. 539 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:39,040 Speaker 1: So that is the complicated, challenging part of the question. 540 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 1: It is a yes or no question. 541 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 8: But if you say yes, not to change the subject 542 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 8: real quick. Hillary are supposed to stand before the Senate 543 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:53,719 Speaker 8: hearing sometime this week, and I'm already predicting their answers 544 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 8: are gonna be I plead the Fifth or I do 545 00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 8: not recall. 546 00:28:59,120 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 7: Mark it down. 547 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 1: Well, that's it easy one, Larry, you take okay, I 548 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 1: do not recall. That is the answer to that. I 549 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: presume they're not going to take the fifth on anything, 550 00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 1: because you can't sub you can't limit your Fifth Amendment assertions. 551 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 1: If you answer any questions, then you basically waive it. 552 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 1: So but I do not recall. Yeah, we're going back 553 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 1: a number of years for Bill and Hillary Clinton. I 554 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 1: do not recall. Any good lawyer will teach a someone 555 00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: subject to deposition that exact response. Listen, man, if you're 556 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: not absolutely one hundredercent certain you are under oath, then 557 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 1: just say you don't recall. Why because I don't recall. 558 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 1: One can refresh a recollection with a document or other 559 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 1: item of information and say, oh, do you remember saying this. 560 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:40,959 Speaker 1: We have you quoted as saying blah blah blah. Oh, 561 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 1: that's right, I recall. But if you answer definitively yes 562 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 1: or no, like the property tax question, then you're stuck 563 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 1: with yes or no.

It's a legitimate question. Again, 695 00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:17,799 Speaker 1: address that in the last hour with a phone caller. 696 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:20,360 Speaker 1: You know, I'm with a lot of my listeners that 697 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,240 Speaker 1: please give us an opportunity to make the selection ourselves. 698 00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:27,839 Speaker 1: Although I certainly understand the monetary dynamic behind endorsing Viva 699 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:31,839 Speaker 1: Ramaswami ahead of the primary, I think the Republican Party 700 00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:33,440 Speaker 1: decided he was so far ahead in the polls that 701 00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 1: it would be a colossal waste of money to have 702 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:37,480 Speaker 1: to fight back and forth in a primary, and they 703 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 1: wanted to keep their powder dry.

This sounds analogous to telling black people that 733 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 1: they are too stupid to vote or too stupid to 734 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:11,360 Speaker 1: get a photo ID. What is with that? I'm sorry 735 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,319 Speaker 1: Georgia had the same thing, Oh, Jim Crow two point zero, 736 00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:17,319 Speaker 1: and then after they implemented the voter ID requirement, then 737 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:20,480 Speaker 1: more black people voted in Georgia than prior to the requirement. 738 00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:22,719 Speaker 1: I guess you're capable of doing that. I've always said that. 739 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 1: I've been on record for years saying anybody who says 740 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 1: out loud that people of color are at a disadvantage 741 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,560 Speaker 1: getting a photo ID are themselves racist? For saying that, 742 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:38,440 Speaker 1: it is demeaning. Smitherman was talking about that just the 743 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:40,279 Speaker 1: other day here on the Smith event on Mondays every 744 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:42,040 Speaker 1: Monday at seven to twenty find the podcast that you 745 00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:44,400 Speaker 1: have carecy dot com.

His way of bonding with black people is 761 00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:44,080 Speaker 1: to tell them how stupid he is and that he 762 00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:44,839 Speaker 1: can't read. 763 00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:49,400 Speaker 7: Uh, huh. 764 00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:51,320 Speaker 1: Do you want to know the craziest part of this 765 00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:54,320 Speaker 1: footage that will hunt him forever? She said or asked. 766 00:40:54,800 --> 00:41:04,359 Speaker 1: He's literally slowing his speech down and talking in Spira cadence. Yeah. 767 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:11,680 Speaker 1: I think that is quite literally insulting. Gavin Newsom, spokesperson 768 00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:18,400 Speaker 1: defending the comments. First, Maga mocked his dyslexia, and now 769 00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:21,680 Speaker 1: they're calling him racist for talking about his low SAT scores. 770 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:29,000 Speaker 1: This is maga manufactured outrage. Really, governors said this publicly 771 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:31,640 Speaker 1: for years, including with Charlie Kirk and dozens of other audiences. 772 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:34,560 Speaker 1: The same people who excused or ignored Trump's racist date 773 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:37,960 Speaker 1: video can go F word themselves, Which leads me over 774 00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:41,120 Speaker 1: to another question I've got for you, generally speaking, are 775 00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:44,360 Speaker 1: you upset about the state of political discourse in this country? 776 00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:49,640 Speaker 1: Why do I have to wake up every single morning 777 00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:54,400 Speaker 1: and still to my amazement and it's clickbait?

Is it 786 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:33,520 Speaker 1: necessary to incorporate F bombs and everything? Are you so 787 00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:36,080 Speaker 1: desperate for someone to click on it, and really, you know, 788 00:42:36,120 --> 00:42:38,040 Speaker 1: I'm inclined to click on something like just because I 789 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:40,920 Speaker 1: can't believe they said it in about five minutes time 790 00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:42,920 Speaker 1: from now in the real world time that we live in, 791 00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 1: which you know, for four five years is a moment 792 00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:48,920 Speaker 1: in time. See brought war in Ukraine. I'm going to 793 00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:51,560 Speaker 1: become callous and jaded to it. It's become an acceptable norm, 794 00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:52,799 Speaker 1: and I'm going to be reading it all the time, 795 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:54,800 Speaker 1: so much so that it's no longer to become clickbait. 796 00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:57,160 Speaker 1: Did Governor do Some really say that? 797 00:42:57,239 --> 00:42:57,439 Speaker 4: Yeah? 798 00:42:57,440 --> 00:42:57,719 Speaker 5: He did. 799 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:03,520 Speaker 1: Newsom himself after being accused of being a racist over 800 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:07,960 Speaker 1: his racist SDAT comment in Atlanta. Quote. You don't give 801 00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:11,040 Speaker 1: an S word about the President of the United States 802 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:13,880 Speaker 1: of America posting an eighth video of President Barack Obama 803 00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:18,920 Speaker 1: or calling African nations s holes. But you're gonna call 804 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:22,239 Speaker 1: me a racist for talking about my lifelong struggle with dyslexia. 805 00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 1: Spare me your fwording outrage. Oh that's classy, brother, Dad's class. 806 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:32,600 Speaker 1: Is this what appeals to voters? Is this what you 807 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:38,920 Speaker 1: want in your politicians? Oh and let's pivot over to 808 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:42,000 Speaker 1: this one. So apparently he has been talking about his 809 00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 1: dyslexia since two thousand and four, that's when he was 810 00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:46,960 Speaker 1: may of San Francisco. He's the one that brought it up. 811 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:50,799 Speaker 1: Look at me, I'm dyslexi. I'm someone who's still achieved 812 00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:55,720 Speaker 1: something in spite of my disability. Wow. What a novel 813 00:43:55,840 --> 00:44:01,040 Speaker 1: concept that achieving something in spite of a backer disability. 814 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:07,160 Speaker 1: Keep going, Gavin, keep going. So we have a real 815 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 1: politics correspondent, woman named Susan Crabtree. It doesn't matter if 816 00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:16,840 Speaker 1: she's a member of the media. She asked for some 817 00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:20,880 Speaker 1: measure proof of his dyslexia diagnosis since he did interject 818 00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:24,759 Speaker 1: it into the equation. Hey, you know, he previously said 819 00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:27,239 Speaker 1: he got a diagnosis back in nineteen seventy two when 820 00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:34,920 Speaker 1: he was a kid. So Susan asked him. Gavin Newsom's 821 00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:40,720 Speaker 1: response from the communications director, who I presume had authority 822 00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:43,040 Speaker 1: the issue. The response to Gavin Newsom's comment is he 823 00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:51,120 Speaker 1: garden quote. Hey, Susan, thanks for reaching out respectfully. F 824 00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:59,200 Speaker 1: word off close quote on behalf of Gavin Newsom. Stay classy, 825 00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:04,680 Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom, you keep at it. You just keep at it. Yes, 826 00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:06,879 Speaker 1: if he was dyslexic, you're right, it will be off 827 00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:12,040 Speaker 1: F word good, good call Joe Strecker, well done. Yeah, 828 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:15,400 Speaker 1: but his spokesperson isn't dyslexic, so maybe she, you know, 829 00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:20,719 Speaker 1: restated or rephrased the quote she got from the f 830 00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:25,160 Speaker 1: bomber and chief out in California. Oh and parathetically, if 831 00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:27,920 Speaker 1: you want to know, I looked up the average SAT score. 832 00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:33,280 Speaker 1: It's ten twenty four. That's the average, So he's nine sixty. 833 00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:36,759 Speaker 1: Dry your own conclusions. I just share the people's, you know, 834 00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:43,240 Speaker 1: perception that it was pretty gosh darn racist or easily 835 00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:45,600 Speaker 1: easily interpreted as such when he said it. And no, 836 00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:50,560 Speaker 1: I am not defending Donald Trumps stupid, stupid posting of 837 00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:53,719 Speaker 1: that video. I still cannot believe that. But there you go, 838 00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:56,040 Speaker 1: six fifteen right now, feel free to call be right back. 839 00:45:56,080 --> 00:45:58,440 Speaker 1: After I mentioned USA's premium phone, the premium phone that 840 00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:02,359 Speaker 1: is USA and slaves station and it's six twenty here 841 00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:05,680 Speaker 1: fifty five KRC Detalk station, Happy Tuesday, Coffee Life five 842 00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:09,000 Speaker 1: went three seven eight two three TAI five fifty on 843 00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:10,640 Speaker 1: at and t funds be where I get to other 844 00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:13,280 Speaker 1: shenanigans going on in the state of California.

That's my personal opinion. 849 00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:27,279 Speaker 1: Get a load of this, of course. It's Democrats in 850 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:33,839 Speaker 1: New Jersey. Welcome to the f word ICE Act. Yes, 851 00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:37,800 Speaker 1: an acronym, you know it.

F ICE Act. 854 00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:52,680 Speaker 1: Not that it has stands a chance of getting pasted anyway. 855 00:46:52,680 --> 00:46:55,279 Speaker 1: It would permit civil actions for violations of the US 856 00:46:55,360 --> 00:47:04,880 Speaker 1: Constitution related to immigrant enforcement, introduced by Democrats in New Jersey. Specifically, 857 00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:10,839 Speaker 1: Jake Efros, described as a Democrats socialist counselman, apparently went 858 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:15,560 Speaker 1: out to a ICE protest and was rebuffed by a 859 00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:17,640 Speaker 1: federal agent who told him I don't need a warrant, 860 00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:21,360 Speaker 1: bro offhand comment, resulting in something as abhorrant as the 861 00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:25,880 Speaker 1: f ICE Act. Stay classy, Democrats, Stay classy. Back over 862 00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:28,520 Speaker 1: to California, Governor news Tom announced he's allocating get a 863 00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:31,200 Speaker 1: load of this in a budget shortfall state billions of 864 00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:35,000 Speaker 1: dollars in budget shortfall, lots of people having problems with homelessness, 865 00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:37,240 Speaker 1: people living on the streets. We've got a crime running 866 00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:40,279 Speaker 1: out of control in California. Name pick your personal problem 867 00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 1: in the state of California. Not enough housing, affordable housing. 868 00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:46,239 Speaker 1: Notably because of the regulatory environment. The environmental environment or 869 00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:49,719 Speaker 1: regulations are so tough that oil companies are closing down shop, 870 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:52,080 Speaker 1: they're not refining oil. It's the highest gas price in 871 00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:55,640 Speaker 1: the entire country by a dollar sixty five only because 872 00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:57,640 Speaker 1: of the regulatory state. We could go on and on 873 00:47:57,800 --> 00:47:59,960 Speaker 1: and on about the Charlie Fox draft. That is Oh look, 874 00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:04,120 Speaker 1: Brian just did it. That is California thirty five million 875 00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:11,480 Speaker 1: dollars in state funding to support illegal immigrants. Legislators set 876 00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:15,080 Speaker 1: aside the month to help philanthropic partners ie non governmental 877 00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:20,480 Speaker 1: organizations support immigrant families with food, assistants and legal resources 878 00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:24,080 Speaker 1: for those who are facing deportation. Now pause in a minute, 879 00:48:24,640 --> 00:48:27,759 Speaker 1: or pause, are you a resident of the state of California, 880 00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:29,840 Speaker 1: and are you maybe a US citizen? Would you like 881 00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:37,480 Speaker 1: some free food and free legal help? Maybe, but you 882 00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:41,880 Speaker 1: don't get it because they're only giving the free legal 883 00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:47,360 Speaker 1: help to people who are not lawfully in our country. 884 00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:51,399 Speaker 1: I find a problem with that prioritization. If you had 885 00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:55,440 Speaker 1: literally unlimited resources, and you didn't have a budget shortfall, 886 00:48:55,560 --> 00:48:57,719 Speaker 1: and you weren't clamoring for more dollars, and you weren't 887 00:48:57,760 --> 00:49:03,280 Speaker 1: thinking about proposing and across the confiscation of billionaire's wealth, 888 00:49:03,320 --> 00:49:05,879 Speaker 1: which is causing billionaires to flee the state, why would 889 00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:07,359 Speaker 1: you do that? Why would you start with that? Because 890 00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:10,840 Speaker 1: you don't have enough money, period, end of story. Not 891 00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:15,759 Speaker 1: enough money, The well is dry. How can you then 892 00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:19,040 Speaker 1: pivot over and offer thirty five million dollars as paltry 893 00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:20,799 Speaker 1: as sum as that might be in the grand scheme 894 00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:24,080 Speaker 1: of things, thirty five million dollars for legal assistance to 895 00:49:24,280 --> 00:49:28,000 Speaker 1: illegal immigrants? What's the motivation behind that? Yeah, I know, 896 00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:31,120 Speaker 1: to keep illegal immigrants in the country. Why because apparently 897 00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:33,200 Speaker 1: they're filling a lot of the jobs out in California, 898 00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:36,480 Speaker 1: and they're working for a lower rate than actual US 899 00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:42,239 Speaker 1: citizens living in California. These funds apparently on top of 900 00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:45,680 Speaker 1: funds of the state already allocated to provide legal services, 901 00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:53,359 Speaker 1: So it's an extra pile of cash California. You going 902 00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:55,640 Speaker 1: to do some spokesperson, People are afraid to leave their 903 00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:59,800 Speaker 1: homes afraid to go to school or work and unable 904 00:49:59,880 --> 00:50:04,480 Speaker 1: to afford groceries. Well, is anybody out in the listening 905 00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:07,040 Speaker 1: audience having struggles with groceries.

I even read this with a 908 00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:14,440 Speaker 1: streker off the break. Remind your children that they're fasting 909 00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:18,640 Speaker 1: because of the Lord and not because you can't afford groceries. 910 00:50:19,640 --> 00:50:23,000 Speaker 1: Just to suspect, I think it's a legitimate suspicion, probably 911 00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:31,000 Speaker 1: confirmed by factual information like gasoline and shelter. I suspect 912 00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:33,560 Speaker 1: groceries in the state of California are a lot more 913 00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:36,560 Speaker 1: expensive than they are out here in Flyover Country.

Campbell County 937 00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:45,359 Speaker 1: Corner's Office identified Faith Jenkins after her body was found 938 00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:49,880 Speaker 1: in Lloyd Creek over the weekend Friday Friday. Then an 939 00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:53,000 Speaker 1: iPhone crashed detection alert. I didn't realize they had that, 940 00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:56,920 Speaker 1: but apparently something I didn't learn from Tech Friday's Day Hatter. Anyway, 941 00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:59,920 Speaker 1: an iPhone detection alert launched. An overnight multi agency SIR 942 00:52:00,600 --> 00:52:03,120 Speaker 1: began around eight pm Friday after an alert indicated a 943 00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:09,640 Speaker 1: possible crash near Ninober Lake Lane close to the iiO River. 944 00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:12,200 Speaker 1: The body and the vehicle were found in the creek 945 00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:16,319 Speaker 1: from the further from the original alert location, so they 946 00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:22,680 Speaker 1: have identified her. That's sad. Nearly two months into twenty 947 00:52:22,719 --> 00:52:25,880 Speaker 1: twenty six, Hamilton County approaching the number of fire deaths 948 00:52:25,920 --> 00:52:29,520 Speaker 1: that they see typically in an entire year. Seventy four 949 00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:32,680 Speaker 1: year West Price Hill resident died in February eighteenth fire. 950 00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:36,759 Speaker 1: The most recent victim to fires that's the Tulsa far 951 00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:40,680 Speaker 1: now is eight started in early January when three members 952 00:52:40,680 --> 00:52:42,640 Speaker 1: of a family were found dead in Spring Grove Village 953 00:52:42,680 --> 00:52:44,600 Speaker 1: when it was where there was a fire. Fire chief 954 00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:47,080 Speaker 1: here in Cincinnati is set to address with the department. 955 00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:51,200 Speaker 1: Spokesperson calls a recent quote huge batch of fire deaths. 956 00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:56,400 Speaker 1: Do we ever hear from the CINCINNTI Fire Department chief? No, 957 00:52:56,600 --> 00:53:02,160 Speaker 1: we don't, do we Well, we heard from the spokesperson 958 00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:05,240 Speaker 1: who said we're gonna hear from the fire chief anyway. 959 00:53:06,120 --> 00:53:09,080 Speaker 1: Cincinnati data does not show an increase in fire calls though, 960 00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 1: which they say raises question the fire chief Frank McKinley, 961 00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:15,319 Speaker 1: plans to address coming up in February twenty fourth at 962 00:53:15,360 --> 00:53:19,720 Speaker 1: a city safety meeting. Hamilton County averages about eleven accidental 963 00:53:19,800 --> 00:53:22,560 Speaker 1: fire deaths every year. That's according to the Coroner's office, 964 00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:28,320 Speaker 1: So again we've already seen eight. Fire Department spokesperson Lindsay 965 00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:32,600 Speaker 1: Lomax said, not all fire deaths occur because of the fire. 966 00:53:32,719 --> 00:53:35,200 Speaker 1: Someone could have a heart attack while cooking. That's an 967 00:53:35,239 --> 00:53:37,960 Speaker 1: interesting parallel. That's like saying you died of COVID nineteen 968 00:53:38,040 --> 00:53:40,200 Speaker 1: when you had a motorcycle wreck which broke your neck 969 00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:45,600 Speaker 1: while you had COVID nineteen. Anyway, she suggested that twenty 970 00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:48,400 Speaker 1: twenty six is an unusual trend, saying the math doesn't 971 00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:57,600 Speaker 1: work out properly. I don't want to do that. Interesting 972 00:53:57,680 --> 00:54:00,600 Speaker 1: reporting from Marlena langerver WCPO. Apparently there is a local 973 00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:06,719 Speaker 1: guy who's stuck in Mexico. I'm go into the details 974 00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:10,200 Speaker 1: on that as I started out this morning, Governor to 975 00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:14,480 Speaker 1: wine Hey, temporary means temporary, did you look it up? 976 00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:19,400 Speaker 1: Not permanent means it may go away. The temporary protected 977 00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:22,120 Speaker 1: status for the Haitian community, love it or hate it 978 00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:25,360 Speaker 1: has gone away because Donald Trump took it away. Giveth 979 00:54:25,440 --> 00:54:28,640 Speaker 1: and taketh away. Temporary protected status allows you to work 980 00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:31,239 Speaker 1: in our country once you're under temporary protected status, but 981 00:54:31,239 --> 00:54:33,279 Speaker 1: apparently it can be revoked, which means you, I guess, 982 00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:35,719 Speaker 1: are no longer lawfully allowed to vote or to work. 983 00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:37,920 Speaker 1: And that's got Governor to Wine a little hot under 984 00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:41,320 Speaker 1: the collar. He criticized Trump's attempt to end temporary protected 985 00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:45,239 Speaker 1: status for the Haitian community, calling the policy wrong. Talking 986 00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:48,960 Speaker 1: on face the Nation defended Haitians living and working legally 987 00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:51,920 Speaker 1: in Ohio, at least temporarily, saying that they have strengthened 988 00:54:51,960 --> 00:54:56,239 Speaker 1: local communities and filled jobs amid labor shortages. I think 989 00:54:56,320 --> 00:54:59,040 Speaker 1: the policy to revoke that is wrong. I don't think 990 00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:01,720 Speaker 1: that there's a consent for taking people who are working, 991 00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:04,560 Speaker 1: who are supporting their families. And we've kind of seen 992 00:55:04,600 --> 00:55:07,120 Speaker 1: it almost in a microway with the Haitian community that's 993 00:55:07,120 --> 00:55:10,120 Speaker 1: coming to Springfield. Springfield is an industrial city. This is 994 00:55:10,120 --> 00:55:12,520 Speaker 1: all Trump's quote are Dwaine's quote. By the way, I 995 00:55:12,560 --> 00:55:15,560 Speaker 1: think he got that. An industrial city, manufacturing city that 996 00:55:15,760 --> 00:55:18,040 Speaker 1: was down. It has been coming back, and frankly, one 997 00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:20,040 Speaker 1: of the reasons that's coming back is because the Haitians 998 00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:22,160 Speaker 1: who are working there, So I think the policy there 999 00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:27,560 Speaker 1: is wrong. He claims the economic uptick is in part 1000 00:55:27,640 --> 00:55:30,560 Speaker 1: because of Haitian workers who filled jobs that employers could 1001 00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:33,320 Speaker 1: not staff otherwise. I also have been given the impression 1002 00:55:33,360 --> 00:55:35,960 Speaker 1: they work for a lot less than the Americans who 1003 00:55:35,960 --> 00:55:40,080 Speaker 1: are well American citizens. That's a problem. But I asked 1004 00:55:40,080 --> 00:55:42,200 Speaker 1: the question out loud, what's with him in Haitians? And 1005 00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:43,840 Speaker 1: I know that he and his wife have done charitable 1006 00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:45,640 Speaker 1: work in Haiti for a long long time, So we 1007 00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:49,040 Speaker 1: asked this out loud. If we didn't have a large 1008 00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:51,440 Speaker 1: presence of Haitians in the state of Ohio, let's say 1009 00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:55,240 Speaker 1: it was Venezuelans, would he be complaining about the removal 1010 00:55:55,360 --> 00:55:58,840 Speaker 1: or revocation of some other ethnic group or country of 1011 00:55:58,880 --> 00:56:06,800 Speaker 1: origins group temper protected status. I don't think so anyway, 1012 00:56:08,120 --> 00:56:14,640 Speaker 1: Maybe not Rhino. Maybe there's another moniker for them, Depublicans 1013 00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:19,920 Speaker 1: that may apply six thirty five or thirty six if 1014 00:56:19,920 --> 00:56:22,920 Speaker 1: you have KERCD talk station Peter k the talk station 1015 00:56:24,800 --> 00:56:27,640 Speaker 1: sixty one, if if you have KARCD talk station Tuesday. 1016 00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:29,440 Speaker 1: I was thinking of the caller earlier that wanted to 1017 00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:32,160 Speaker 1: know where Viva Ramaswam he stood on property taxes. Since 1018 00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:36,479 Speaker 1: we've got uh Tom Zawistowski coming up at seven thirty 1019 00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:39,320 Speaker 1: to give his thoughts and comments about explaining the Republican 1020 00:56:39,360 --> 00:56:43,320 Speaker 1: Party's endorsing, for example, Robert Sprague over Marcel Sturbage in 1021 00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:45,440 Speaker 1: advance of the primary. And I think the vast majority 1022 00:56:45,480 --> 00:56:47,440 Speaker 1: of the listeners would pretty much like the opportunity to 1023 00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:50,120 Speaker 1: vote in the primary ahead of time. And I suspected 1024 00:56:50,239 --> 00:56:53,399 Speaker 1: Viva Gramaswam he got the endorsement early for governor because 1025 00:56:53,440 --> 00:56:56,200 Speaker 1: they wanted to avoid the monetary obligations of having to 1026 00:56:56,239 --> 00:56:59,480 Speaker 1: fight in a primary. Be that as it may, it's reality, 1027 00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:01,080 Speaker 1: and I think you would have done fine and would 1028 00:57:01,080 --> 00:57:02,839 Speaker 1: have prevailed in the primary anyway. But this is where 1029 00:57:02,920 --> 00:57:06,360 Speaker 1: we stand. But insofar as that is concerned, to generate 1030 00:57:06,400 --> 00:57:08,040 Speaker 1: a call from someone who wanted to know where Vv. 1031 00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:10,800 Speaker 1: Ramasomi stood on eradicating the property tax is something that 1032 00:57:10,840 --> 00:57:12,960 Speaker 1: the caller really sounds like he was desirous of. And 1033 00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:14,640 Speaker 1: I said, that's fine. You can ask hi me yes 1034 00:57:14,719 --> 00:57:17,440 Speaker 1: or no question, and I certainly will be willing to 1035 00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:20,040 Speaker 1: do that. But the problem is it's yes, but I 1036 00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:22,560 Speaker 1: want to eradicate them but I'm not sure if he 1037 00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:24,600 Speaker 1: would even say I want to eradicate them. Because Vivi 1038 00:57:24,760 --> 00:57:30,760 Speaker 1: Ramaswami has been pledging to eliminate the income tax. That, 1039 00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:32,840 Speaker 1: of course is the answer to a lot of people 1040 00:57:33,440 --> 00:57:35,000 Speaker 1: response to well, what are you going to do to 1041 00:57:35,120 --> 00:57:37,920 Speaker 1: generate revenue when the property tax goes away? Many say 1042 00:57:38,080 --> 00:57:41,439 Speaker 1: just increase the income tax a little bit or maybe 1043 00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:44,360 Speaker 1: a lot, depending on who you're listening to. That would 1044 00:57:44,480 --> 00:57:47,080 Speaker 1: not square with what Vivik Ramaswami has been saying along 1045 00:57:47,160 --> 00:57:49,760 Speaker 1: the campaign trail thus far. Although I cannot find any 1046 00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:53,840 Speaker 1: definitive statement from him on the property taxes, I know 1047 00:57:53,920 --> 00:57:56,040 Speaker 1: he's a huge fan of school choice and with that, 1048 00:57:56,080 --> 00:57:57,920 Speaker 1: I'll want to pivot over to this, is this not 1049 00:57:58,080 --> 00:58:01,920 Speaker 1: revealing of a pent up demands? And for parents proof 1050 00:58:02,040 --> 00:58:09,000 Speaker 1: that parents want school choice, we go to Texas. This 1051 00:58:09,160 --> 00:58:11,800 Speaker 1: was described as the largest school choice rollout in the 1052 00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:17,560 Speaker 1: entire United States history. One hundred and eighteen thousand applications 1053 00:58:17,600 --> 00:58:21,800 Speaker 1: have been filed as of this past Friday. Texas Education 1054 00:58:22,120 --> 00:58:26,400 Speaker 1: Freedom Accounts TEFA state created education Savings Account program and 1055 00:58:26,400 --> 00:58:28,200 Speaker 1: they did back it with an initial one billion dollar 1056 00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:31,200 Speaker 1: quote unquote investment. But it gives parents the option to 1057 00:58:31,280 --> 00:58:33,440 Speaker 1: go to a school that's not in their neighborhood. The 1058 00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:35,680 Speaker 1: you know, the the zoning. Okay, your kids in this 1059 00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:38,080 Speaker 1: particular zone. I'm sorry, you can't step foot out of it. 1060 00:58:38,400 --> 00:58:44,280 Speaker 1: They got rid of that over forty two thousand applications submitted. 1061 00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:50,040 Speaker 1: On day one. American Federation for Children President Tommy Schultz 1062 00:58:50,080 --> 00:58:52,440 Speaker 1: been talking about this. Every family wants their children to 1063 00:58:52,480 --> 00:58:56,080 Speaker 1: have access to the best education possible. Isn't that definitively true. 1064 00:58:56,560 --> 00:58:58,080 Speaker 1: That's why I keep going back to the idea that 1065 00:58:58,160 --> 00:59:06,000 Speaker 1: this has no political stripe. The choice should be yours. Republicans, Democrats, Christians, Muslims, 1066 00:59:06,160 --> 00:59:11,760 Speaker 1: Jewish people, everybody, black, white, Asian, doesn't matter across the 1067 00:59:11,840 --> 00:59:17,920 Speaker 1: demographic lines. It should be your choice. Every family wants 1068 00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:19,880 Speaker 1: or children have access to the best education. I know 1069 00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:22,840 Speaker 1: I did when we were sending our kids to school. Unfortunately, Hey, 1070 00:59:22,920 --> 00:59:25,640 Speaker 1: public schools work for my kids? Well wow, amazing, amazing 1071 00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:27,440 Speaker 1: that we had choice and we sent them to the 1072 00:59:27,600 --> 00:59:30,320 Speaker 1: Loveland Schools. Not quite sure where they are now. Thankfully 1073 00:59:30,440 --> 00:59:34,080 Speaker 1: I'm many years out of that. But choice, you said, 1074 00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:37,360 Speaker 1: an education system controlled by the unions that forces kids 1075 00:59:37,440 --> 00:59:40,080 Speaker 1: to go to a school that isn't serving their needs 1076 00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:44,520 Speaker 1: is a moral failure for our country. And isn't that 1077 00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:48,000 Speaker 1: the God's honest truth? And I keep going back to 1078 00:59:48,080 --> 00:59:51,200 Speaker 1: the idea and this is an often stated problem, an 1079 00:59:51,240 --> 00:59:53,520 Speaker 1: issue that I've got with the public schools and this 1080 00:59:54,120 --> 00:59:56,880 Speaker 1: woke direction they've gone in that they would have the nerve, 1081 00:59:56,960 --> 01:00:00,680 Speaker 1: the audacity, call it, even the sin of advancing a 1082 01:00:00,800 --> 01:00:02,560 Speaker 1: child into the next grave when that child has not 1083 01:00:02,680 --> 01:00:07,080 Speaker 1: mastered the skills of the grade they're in. That is, 1084 01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:11,080 Speaker 1: I think, probably without committing a bodily harm to a child, 1085 01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:12,680 Speaker 1: probably one of the most grievous things we could do 1086 01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:14,720 Speaker 1: to a child. You're not prepared. We're going to move 1087 01:00:14,760 --> 01:00:17,960 Speaker 1: you forward anyway. It's a sink or swim environment, and 1088 01:00:18,080 --> 01:00:23,520 Speaker 1: you're going to sink. Welcome to modern education theory. And 1089 01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:25,760 Speaker 1: of course our response to that would be to what 1090 01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:30,680 Speaker 1: exactly what many one hundred plus thousand people in Texas did. 1091 01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:33,880 Speaker 1: I'm going to pick someplace else to send my school 1092 01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:40,960 Speaker 1: shocking six forty five fifty five care see it's six 1093 01:00:40,960 --> 01:00:42,480 Speaker 1: pot fifty here if if you bi car see de 1094 01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:44,240 Speaker 1: talk station Happy Tuesday. 1095 01:00:44,640 --> 01:00:44,880 Speaker 3: Oh. 1096 01:00:45,160 --> 01:00:47,080 Speaker 1: Here on the heels of my comments about what a 1097 01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:49,000 Speaker 1: senate is to advance a child in the next grave 1098 01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:50,840 Speaker 1: when they can't master the skills of the grade they're in. 1099 01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:53,800 Speaker 1: Here's a nice parallel to draw all the Democrats out there. 1100 01:00:53,840 --> 01:00:55,400 Speaker 1: I think that's a great idea. I don't think you 1101 01:00:55,400 --> 01:00:57,160 Speaker 1: could possibly explain to me how it could be a 1102 01:00:57,200 --> 01:00:59,280 Speaker 1: good idea to do that. But let's take a page 1103 01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:01,720 Speaker 1: out of the Democrat book and start criticizing ICE in 1104 01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:04,280 Speaker 1: connection with moving people along that aren't prepared. 1105 01:01:04,680 --> 01:01:04,840 Speaker 3: Huh. 1106 01:01:05,080 --> 01:01:08,360 Speaker 1: We got a whistleblower, former US Immigrations and Customs Enforcement 1107 01:01:08,480 --> 01:01:16,560 Speaker 1: instructor testifying before Congress. It's reported to meet the demand 1108 01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:22,080 Speaker 1: for recruits for enforcement surges, ICE has stopped failing trainees 1109 01:01:22,160 --> 01:01:26,840 Speaker 1: on practical exams and shifted closed book multiple choice exams 1110 01:01:26,880 --> 01:01:31,919 Speaker 1: to open book. Who said that Ryan Schwank previously taught 1111 01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:35,760 Speaker 1: at the agency's academy in Georgia before his resignation earlier 1112 01:01:35,840 --> 01:01:38,040 Speaker 1: this month. Now take him at his word. I mean, 1113 01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:40,040 Speaker 1: we just assume that what he says is accurate, and 1114 01:01:40,160 --> 01:01:42,880 Speaker 1: I cannot defend if what he says is accurate. He 1115 01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:47,400 Speaker 1: said Ice made the program shorter. This is training, mind you. 1116 01:01:48,120 --> 01:01:50,800 Speaker 1: They remove so many essential parts that what remains is 1117 01:01:50,880 --> 01:01:58,960 Speaker 1: a dangerous husk. The agency's hired thousands and thousands of 1118 01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:01,600 Speaker 1: new officers to deal with his surge. And I certainly 1119 01:02:01,680 --> 01:02:04,800 Speaker 1: understand that, but should we let them be laxed? On training? 1120 01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:07,680 Speaker 1: Department of Homeland Security spokes from a woman named Laura 1121 01:02:07,720 --> 01:02:11,400 Speaker 1: and Biss said the agency has in fact streamline training 1122 01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:14,840 Speaker 1: to cut redundancy and incorporate new technologies, but claims that no, 1123 01:02:15,000 --> 01:02:17,320 Speaker 1: the subject matter hasn't been cut. New recruits still meet 1124 01:02:17,320 --> 01:02:21,240 Speaker 1: the same high standards ICE has always required now. Schwank, 1125 01:02:21,280 --> 01:02:24,360 Speaker 1: for his part, speaking to Congress, said ICE recruits who 1126 01:02:24,440 --> 01:02:28,400 Speaker 1: made glaring mistakes in their final training exercises were nonetheless 1127 01:02:28,400 --> 01:02:32,720 Speaker 1: allowed to graduate. Does that sound like a good idea, right? No, 1128 01:02:34,680 --> 01:02:39,800 Speaker 1: including examples of trainees who accidentally drew their firearms on 1129 01:02:40,040 --> 01:02:46,200 Speaker 1: each other, red flag pulled guns on detainees without justification, 1130 01:02:47,600 --> 01:02:55,919 Speaker 1: pepper sprayed bystanders without cause during simulated exercises, Swang testifying, saying, 1131 01:02:55,960 --> 01:02:59,200 Speaker 1: no matter how badly a cadet does that those practical exams, 1132 01:02:59,320 --> 01:03:01,960 Speaker 1: no matter how many mistakes they make, no matter how 1133 01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:05,760 Speaker 1: many egregious, no matter how egregiously they violate the law 1134 01:03:05,920 --> 01:03:11,720 Speaker 1: during practical we graduate them. He claimed. ICE cut two 1135 01:03:11,760 --> 01:03:13,919 Speaker 1: hundred and forty hours of lessons from a five hundred 1136 01:03:13,920 --> 01:03:16,400 Speaker 1: and eighty four hour program, he said, meant dispensing with 1137 01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:21,360 Speaker 1: classes about firearms safety, lawful arrest, proper detention, and limits 1138 01:03:21,360 --> 01:03:27,320 Speaker 1: to officers authority. I can't abide by that. I don't 1139 01:03:27,320 --> 01:03:30,680 Speaker 1: think we would have accept police cadets graduating from the 1140 01:03:30,720 --> 01:03:36,000 Speaker 1: Police Academy if they didn't graduate with reasonably with passable marks. 1141 01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:44,800 Speaker 1: So figure that one out. It's okay to let kids graduate. 1142 01:03:46,600 --> 01:03:49,959 Speaker 1: It's just it's okay to let ice officers graduate without 1143 01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:53,080 Speaker 1: proper trainings. Just let kids do it. It'll serve all 1144 01:03:53,120 --> 01:03:57,200 Speaker 1: of us really really well. Anyhow, But up, up, up, bomb, 1145 01:03:57,200 --> 01:03:59,800 Speaker 1: What else do I have here? Remind you that coming 1146 01:03:59,840 --> 01:04:01,520 Speaker 1: up where we're talking with Daniel Davis deep dive. Of 1147 01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:04,840 Speaker 1: course it's Tuesday at eight thirty. We do that again, 1148 01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:09,160 Speaker 1: just fun fact. This morning, I am remaining reeling from 1149 01:04:09,200 --> 01:04:11,640 Speaker 1: the idea and the just recognition that we have now 1150 01:04:11,800 --> 01:04:14,920 Speaker 1: dealt with this Ukraine Russian war. Now this is the 1151 01:04:15,080 --> 01:04:18,720 Speaker 1: fifth year, and I'm anxious to hear what Daniel Davis 1152 01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:22,760 Speaker 1: says about the statistics released by the so called nonpartisan 1153 01:04:23,320 --> 01:04:27,680 Speaker 1: Center for Strategic and Intelligent Studies. The deaths are catastrophic, 1154 01:04:28,360 --> 01:04:31,040 Speaker 1: according to their figures. There have been three hundred and 1155 01:04:31,080 --> 01:04:34,840 Speaker 1: twenty five thousand fatalities. That's on the Russian side, one 1156 01:04:34,920 --> 01:04:38,920 Speaker 1: point two million casualties. That's a lot of folks walking 1157 01:04:38,960 --> 01:04:44,800 Speaker 1: around without a limb or maybe rolling around. It's sad. 1158 01:04:45,840 --> 01:04:49,200 Speaker 1: As for the Ukrainian six hundred thousand casualties and one 1159 01:04:49,280 --> 01:04:54,480 Speaker 1: hundred and forty thousand dead. Those are huge numbers to 1160 01:04:54,560 --> 01:04:57,000 Speaker 1: grasp and one can only pray that there is some 1161 01:04:57,200 --> 01:05:01,400 Speaker 1: resolution to the bloodshed going on between those two countries, 1162 01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:05,120 Speaker 1: and very quickly.

We start out with this and 1175 01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:36,680 Speaker 3: then end with the State of the Union to it's. 1176 01:05:37,160 --> 01:05:39,240 Speaker 1: Quite the book end. Well, it is quite the bookend. 1177 01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:41,680 Speaker 1: But I guarantee you our discussion, as long as I 1178 01:05:41,800 --> 01:05:43,280 Speaker 1: might want it to go, is going to be a 1179 01:05:43,360 --> 01:05:45,400 Speaker 1: lot more abbreviated than the State of the Union address. 1180 01:05:45,720 --> 01:05:47,880 Speaker 1: You don't think Trump's going to run over time, do you? 1181 01:05:49,200 --> 01:05:49,360 Speaker 4: Oh? 1182 01:05:49,440 --> 01:05:49,960 Speaker 1: My goodness. 1183 01:05:50,000 --> 01:05:52,840 Speaker 3: So last night I was on Twitter. I don't know why, 1184 01:05:52,920 --> 01:05:56,200 Speaker 3: but I was, and Trump came out and said, this 1185 01:05:56,320 --> 01:05:57,440 Speaker 3: is gonna be a long speech. 1186 01:05:58,080 --> 01:06:01,280 Speaker 1: I'm like, wow, Oh no, he gave us a heads up. 1187 01:06:02,040 --> 01:06:02,640 Speaker 10: Yes he did. 1188 01:06:02,680 --> 01:06:04,480 Speaker 3: He said I have a lot to talk about and 1189 01:06:04,960 --> 01:06:05,840 Speaker 3: that's not good. 1190 01:06:06,120 --> 01:06:07,840 Speaker 1: No, Now, you know say we you know him at 1191 01:06:07,880 --> 01:06:09,480 Speaker 1: Donald Trump, love him, hate him. He does have a 1192 01:06:09,520 --> 01:06:12,200 Speaker 1: tendency to ramble on and he does go off script 1193 01:06:12,360 --> 01:06:14,960 Speaker 1: quite often. Do you think he was referring to the 1194 01:06:15,120 --> 01:06:19,560 Speaker 1: actual script being extra long or this is uh? Are 1195 01:06:19,640 --> 01:06:21,720 Speaker 1: his extra comments part of the reason he gave us 1196 01:06:21,720 --> 01:06:22,760 Speaker 1: a warning at a time? 1197 01:06:23,960 --> 01:06:26,720 Speaker 3: Probably his extra comments because I think he's still smarting 1198 01:06:26,800 --> 01:06:30,640 Speaker 3: from the tariff ruling on Friday, so that's probably top 1199 01:06:30,680 --> 01:06:32,960 Speaker 3: of mind. And you know, he may spend a lot 1200 01:06:33,040 --> 01:06:33,720 Speaker 3: of time on that. 1201 01:06:34,120 --> 01:06:36,040 Speaker 1: Well, what a pointless waste of time for him to do. 1202 01:06:36,160 --> 01:06:38,440 Speaker 1: That is going to be critical the Supreme Court's analysis, 1203 01:06:38,520 --> 01:06:41,440 Speaker 1: which you know, for anybody who really appreciates West Virginia 1204 01:06:41,520 --> 01:06:44,880 Speaker 1: versus EPA and this whole major Questions doc room, which 1205 01:06:44,920 --> 01:06:47,080 Speaker 1: goes a long way to eliminate the deep state and 1206 01:06:47,080 --> 01:06:50,240 Speaker 1: the administrative state. That was a blessing beyond blessings for 1207 01:06:50,320 --> 01:06:52,960 Speaker 1: the from the Supreme Court. It's the exact same principle 1208 01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:57,160 Speaker 1: upon which they ruled his his tariffs. We're not constitutional. 1209 01:06:57,400 --> 01:07:01,439 Speaker 1: There is nothing in the International Emergency Powers Act which 1210 01:07:01,480 --> 01:07:04,640 Speaker 1: allows him to use the emergency powers he declared under 1211 01:07:04,720 --> 01:07:08,440 Speaker 1: that for purposes of increasing taxes or levying tariffs on 1212 01:07:08,480 --> 01:07:11,240 Speaker 1: other countries. There's nothing in there that even mentions taxes 1213 01:07:11,320 --> 01:07:13,120 Speaker 1: or tariffs or taxes are tarriffs. 1214 01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:16,360 Speaker 3: Dave, Dave No and Brian, I'm glad you brought up 1215 01:07:16,360 --> 01:07:19,320 Speaker 3: that West Virginia case because you're right, this really helped 1216 01:07:19,400 --> 01:07:24,040 Speaker 3: dismantle the deep state, the agencies and really agencies being 1217 01:07:24,080 --> 01:07:27,000 Speaker 3: able to just dictate what they want. And you know, 1218 01:07:27,080 --> 01:07:29,880 Speaker 3: you look at the two cases right, practically the same 1219 01:07:29,960 --> 01:07:33,640 Speaker 3: Supreme Court. These folks are looking at these issues on 1220 01:07:33,760 --> 01:07:37,560 Speaker 3: a constitutional basis, right, you know, and there's going to 1221 01:07:37,600 --> 01:07:40,680 Speaker 3: be difference of opinion within the halls of the Supreme Court. 1222 01:07:40,800 --> 01:07:45,480 Speaker 3: But you know, you can't embrace one Supreme Court decision 1223 01:07:45,600 --> 01:07:47,440 Speaker 3: and then trash another one because. 1224 01:07:47,520 --> 01:07:49,160 Speaker 1: You know, this is just how it works. 1225 01:07:49,200 --> 01:07:52,000 Speaker 3: And you know what happened on Friday, I thought, you know, 1226 01:07:52,120 --> 01:07:54,960 Speaker 3: took it. Didn't take any courage for the Supreme Court 1227 01:07:55,040 --> 01:07:58,960 Speaker 3: because nowhere in the Constitution doesn't talk about terrorists and 1228 01:08:00,040 --> 01:08:02,479 Speaker 3: it and being able to do this, and thank god, 1229 01:08:02,680 --> 01:08:06,600 Speaker 3: because Congress needs to get investment. If you are going 1230 01:08:06,680 --> 01:08:10,240 Speaker 3: to raise attacks on the American consumer, the American public, 1231 01:08:10,640 --> 01:08:13,560 Speaker 3: Congress has to be this and listen, I think Speaker 1232 01:08:13,680 --> 01:08:16,920 Speaker 3: Mike Johnson has done an okay job, right. This is 1233 01:08:17,080 --> 01:08:20,080 Speaker 3: really where he's dropped the ball is not bringing tariffs 1234 01:08:20,120 --> 01:08:22,320 Speaker 3: to a vote on the House floor for the past 1235 01:08:22,360 --> 01:08:23,080 Speaker 3: two or three years. 1236 01:08:23,120 --> 01:08:26,439 Speaker 1: It's very frustrated, well it is, But I think I 1237 01:08:26,600 --> 01:08:30,280 Speaker 1: share everyone's exasperation on the dysfunction that we have with 1238 01:08:30,439 --> 01:08:34,080 Speaker 1: Congress generally. I mean I personally have not witnessed a 1239 01:08:34,120 --> 01:08:36,920 Speaker 1: phenomenon like this Trump arrangement syndrome, which i'll call it. 1240 01:08:37,040 --> 01:08:38,640 Speaker 1: In spite of the fact that that is obviously a 1241 01:08:38,720 --> 01:08:42,240 Speaker 1: biased way of looking at it, but it's just become 1242 01:08:42,680 --> 01:08:45,000 Speaker 1: almost a joke in and of itself that literally, anything 1243 01:08:45,080 --> 01:08:47,880 Speaker 1: Donald Trump wants, the Democrats immedia are going to say 1244 01:08:47,920 --> 01:08:49,880 Speaker 1: no to it, even if something they traditionally were in 1245 01:08:49,960 --> 01:08:52,519 Speaker 1: favor of. I mean, how many Democrats are on record 1246 01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:56,360 Speaker 1: wanting strong and secure borders and deporting like the deporter 1247 01:08:56,479 --> 01:08:59,479 Speaker 1: in chief Barack Obama seeing it, doing victory laps over 1248 01:08:59,520 --> 01:09:01,679 Speaker 1: the number of people he deported from this country. Fast 1249 01:09:01,720 --> 01:09:03,759 Speaker 1: forward to five minutes ago. In time you got Donald 1250 01:09:03,760 --> 01:09:06,280 Speaker 1: Trump doing the same thing they were praising Obama doing. 1251 01:09:06,520 --> 01:09:09,599 Speaker 1: And now it's the worst possible a breach of morality 1252 01:09:09,640 --> 01:09:11,240 Speaker 1: that you could ever possibly come up with. 1253 01:09:12,400 --> 01:09:15,519 Speaker 3: And Brian tax cuts. You have a lot of middle 1254 01:09:15,560 --> 01:09:18,960 Speaker 3: class families that are getting a bigger tax cut because 1255 01:09:18,960 --> 01:09:22,000 Speaker 3: of Donald Trump. Do the Democrats not want that? Do 1256 01:09:22,120 --> 01:09:25,160 Speaker 3: the Democrats not want more money in the pockets of 1257 01:09:25,200 --> 01:09:27,760 Speaker 3: the people that need it the most? So you're right, 1258 01:09:27,880 --> 01:09:30,880 Speaker 3: this Trump, you know, Trump arrangement syndrome is ridiculous. And 1259 01:09:31,120 --> 01:09:34,040 Speaker 3: so I've been reading that a lot of Democrats now 1260 01:09:34,160 --> 01:09:36,639 Speaker 3: won't show up to the State of the Union, which 1261 01:09:36,720 --> 01:09:40,280 Speaker 3: is they're acting like spoiled breasts are If you are 1262 01:09:40,320 --> 01:09:44,600 Speaker 3: a member of Congress and you having an opportunity to 1263 01:09:44,760 --> 01:09:47,280 Speaker 3: be at a State of the Union live to watch 1264 01:09:47,400 --> 01:09:51,880 Speaker 3: this unfold, why would you not go? Regardless of whether 1265 01:09:51,960 --> 01:09:54,920 Speaker 3: you agree or disagree with who's giving the State of 1266 01:09:54,960 --> 01:09:58,120 Speaker 3: the Union, this is not something that I mean, very 1267 01:09:58,200 --> 01:10:02,400 Speaker 3: few people have an opportunity to witness this live right 1268 01:10:02,439 --> 01:10:04,840 Speaker 3: and to act like a spoiled brat And because you 1269 01:10:04,880 --> 01:10:07,040 Speaker 3: don't like what he's going to say is to stay home? 1270 01:10:07,479 --> 01:10:09,599 Speaker 3: I think, is they really have lost the script here? 1271 01:10:09,640 --> 01:10:12,400 Speaker 1: Man? Well it is. You know, I have this mental 1272 01:10:12,640 --> 01:10:15,360 Speaker 1: image of you know, the four year old and holding 1273 01:10:15,439 --> 01:10:17,880 Speaker 1: his ears and closing his eyes and going d da 1274 01:10:17,960 --> 01:10:19,640 Speaker 1: da da da because they don't want to hear the 1275 01:10:19,640 --> 01:10:21,080 Speaker 1: words that are coming out of his mouth. The words 1276 01:10:21,120 --> 01:10:22,479 Speaker 1: are going to come out of his mouth like it 1277 01:10:22,600 --> 01:10:26,719 Speaker 1: or not. And I think it's a it's an obligation 1278 01:10:26,880 --> 01:10:28,720 Speaker 1: owned to your constituents. You're going to show up there 1279 01:10:28,800 --> 01:10:32,280 Speaker 1: and you know, maybe express some descent. People stand up 1280 01:10:32,320 --> 01:10:35,519 Speaker 1: and clap, People also express descent based upon whatever comes 1281 01:10:35,560 --> 01:10:37,559 Speaker 1: out of the of the President's mouth during the State 1282 01:10:37,600 --> 01:10:38,040 Speaker 1: of the Union. 1283 01:10:39,439 --> 01:10:42,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, and listen, this is obviously, you know, historic. Every 1284 01:10:42,920 --> 01:10:45,479 Speaker 3: State of the Union is historic, and why would you 1285 01:10:45,800 --> 01:10:48,080 Speaker 3: miss that? And why would you, you know, act like 1286 01:10:48,120 --> 01:10:51,200 Speaker 3: a petulant child and and miss that. There are so 1287 01:10:51,280 --> 01:10:53,800 Speaker 3: many most of your listeners right now be like I 1288 01:10:53,840 --> 01:10:56,080 Speaker 3: would love to be in that room. I would love 1289 01:10:56,160 --> 01:10:58,920 Speaker 3: to sit there and watch this thing unfold. But you 1290 01:10:59,080 --> 01:11:01,800 Speaker 3: have self entitled Democrats who are going to stay home. 1291 01:11:02,200 --> 01:11:05,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, stay at home, all right? What do you expect 1292 01:11:05,479 --> 01:11:09,680 Speaker 1: from this, Dave? I know Donald Trump every time I've 1293 01:11:09,720 --> 01:11:13,160 Speaker 1: heard him talk, you know, and he does long winded 1294 01:11:13,240 --> 01:11:17,040 Speaker 1: press conferences as well, which is obviously a refreshing change 1295 01:11:17,080 --> 01:11:19,720 Speaker 1: from the absence of Joe Biden running his presidency from 1296 01:11:19,760 --> 01:11:23,800 Speaker 1: the basement somewhere in some bunker. But he does have 1297 01:11:23,920 --> 01:11:27,000 Speaker 1: a tendency to repeat himself over and over again, and 1298 01:11:27,120 --> 01:11:29,760 Speaker 1: he loves pointing out all his accomplishments, but it goes 1299 01:11:29,840 --> 01:11:32,439 Speaker 1: on ad nauseum. Again, repetition is a problem I think 1300 01:11:32,479 --> 01:11:35,960 Speaker 1: for the president. Is that really kind of what we're 1301 01:11:35,960 --> 01:11:36,840 Speaker 1: going to expect tonight? 1302 01:11:38,280 --> 01:11:41,800 Speaker 3: Well, I'm concerned. This is an election year and the 1303 01:11:41,960 --> 01:11:45,040 Speaker 3: House has a very narrow majority. The Republicans have a 1304 01:11:45,160 --> 01:11:48,200 Speaker 3: very narrow majority in the House, and I think the 1305 01:11:48,280 --> 01:11:52,080 Speaker 3: president is going to lay out some very populist policies. 1306 01:11:52,880 --> 01:11:55,080 Speaker 3: We've all some previews of that, you know, in the 1307 01:11:55,160 --> 01:11:59,719 Speaker 3: past year, whether it's capping interest rates for credit cards. 1308 01:12:00,520 --> 01:12:02,519 Speaker 3: You know he's going to double and triple down on terrorists. 1309 01:12:02,560 --> 01:12:02,920 Speaker 1: We know that. 1310 01:12:03,400 --> 01:12:06,599 Speaker 3: Right is you go and talk about refund checks to people, 1311 01:12:06,960 --> 01:12:11,200 Speaker 3: and whenever you hear the word investment, replace that with spending. Yes, 1312 01:12:11,400 --> 01:12:14,720 Speaker 3: an investment is a spending item, and you know we're 1313 01:12:14,720 --> 01:12:17,160 Speaker 3: going to tally up all of the spending and figure 1314 01:12:17,200 --> 01:12:19,960 Speaker 3: out exactly how much more he wants to spend, because 1315 01:12:20,200 --> 01:12:23,720 Speaker 3: that's what presidents do. Democrats do it. George Bush did it. 1316 01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:26,720 Speaker 3: Republicans across the board. This is what they do during 1317 01:12:26,800 --> 01:12:29,200 Speaker 3: State of the Union. They talk about these investments and 1318 01:12:29,320 --> 01:12:32,240 Speaker 3: that means more spending. What you won't hear, Brian is 1319 01:12:32,320 --> 01:12:37,080 Speaker 3: about doge. It's about cutting spending, cutting wastefile spending that 1320 01:12:37,439 --> 01:12:40,519 Speaker 3: for some reason has gone out of the lexicon of 1321 01:12:40,600 --> 01:12:43,840 Speaker 3: the Republicans' brains. And listen, it was never in the Democrats' 1322 01:12:43,840 --> 01:12:46,840 Speaker 3: brains to cut spending. At least the Republicans thought about 1323 01:12:46,840 --> 01:12:49,479 Speaker 3: it for about five or six months. But we will 1324 01:12:49,560 --> 01:12:53,240 Speaker 3: not hear anything about dose because that's dead and it's 1325 01:12:53,280 --> 01:12:56,800 Speaker 3: just it's frustrating that we have an opportunity. The Republican 1326 01:12:56,880 --> 01:12:59,720 Speaker 3: Congress has an opportunity, and they're not taking it. When 1327 01:12:59,720 --> 01:13:02,000 Speaker 3: it comes to the deficit of the debt and spending. 1328 01:13:04,120 --> 01:13:05,840 Speaker 1: Well, there is no doubt in my mind that is 1329 01:13:05,920 --> 01:13:07,960 Speaker 1: something that should be a number one topic as far 1330 01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:11,200 Speaker 1: as I'm concerned. Dave and I understand the populist kind 1331 01:13:11,240 --> 01:13:12,920 Speaker 1: of thing, and I can go back to the fact 1332 01:13:12,960 --> 01:13:15,920 Speaker 1: that Donald Trump never was a you know, a diet 1333 01:13:15,960 --> 01:13:18,000 Speaker 1: in the world Republican. He kind of did what is 1334 01:13:18,040 --> 01:13:20,400 Speaker 1: good throughout his entire life. For Donald Trump, and I 1335 01:13:20,560 --> 01:13:22,479 Speaker 1: understand that. I always say, the fool is the one 1336 01:13:22,520 --> 01:13:24,519 Speaker 1: who's not looking out for his own best interest. So 1337 01:13:24,960 --> 01:13:26,720 Speaker 1: he's a horse of a different color when it comes 1338 01:13:26,760 --> 01:13:29,960 Speaker 1: to long term politics. But he's thrown out all kinds 1339 01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:34,040 Speaker 1: of populist policies that Democrats would otherwise suggest, like Fanny 1340 01:13:34,040 --> 01:13:36,360 Speaker 1: and Freddie Mack purchasing two hundred billion dollars in mort 1341 01:13:36,520 --> 01:13:39,240 Speaker 1: back mortgage backed securities, his proposal to force credit card 1342 01:13:39,320 --> 01:13:41,639 Speaker 1: companies to put a ten percent cap on interest rates, 1343 01:13:42,479 --> 01:13:45,960 Speaker 1: his idea of preventing institutional investors from buying real estate. 1344 01:13:46,320 --> 01:13:49,639 Speaker 1: I mean, these are not traditional free market conservative ideas. 1345 01:13:49,720 --> 01:13:51,640 Speaker 1: Dave Williams, No, and. 1346 01:13:51,720 --> 01:13:54,840 Speaker 3: Brian, you talk about the institutional you know, folks buying 1347 01:13:55,080 --> 01:14:00,400 Speaker 3: the property one percent, They own one percent of housing 1348 01:14:00,600 --> 01:14:04,040 Speaker 3: in this country. Yet he wants to have an executive 1349 01:14:04,120 --> 01:14:07,120 Speaker 3: order stopping that. So, you know, all these problems are 1350 01:14:07,200 --> 01:14:10,000 Speaker 3: always overblown and it's always the government that has to 1351 01:14:10,080 --> 01:14:13,120 Speaker 3: come into the rescue and fixing. Well, first of all, 1352 01:14:13,200 --> 01:14:15,800 Speaker 3: there isn't a problem with this. Again, one percent of 1353 01:14:15,880 --> 01:14:19,839 Speaker 3: homes in this country are owned by institutional investors. 1354 01:14:20,720 --> 01:14:23,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I've seen it as high as too, but you're right, 1355 01:14:23,280 --> 01:14:25,680 Speaker 1: it's a very very low percentage. It is not a 1356 01:14:25,800 --> 01:14:28,479 Speaker 1: problem screaming for a solution in other words, Dave, And 1357 01:14:28,520 --> 01:14:30,760 Speaker 1: it's not the what is driving the increase in cost 1358 01:14:30,840 --> 01:14:33,040 Speaker 1: of real estate. I think we figured that one out. 1359 01:14:33,080 --> 01:14:36,040 Speaker 1: It was COVID and people not going to work anymore 1360 01:14:36,120 --> 01:14:38,680 Speaker 1: and having desire for a place that's hell and gone 1361 01:14:38,720 --> 01:14:44,240 Speaker 1: away from the Democrat underwater, you know, regulatory overreached states 1362 01:14:44,280 --> 01:14:47,120 Speaker 1: and cities that they lived in. Dave Williams, I want 1363 01:14:47,160 --> 01:14:49,640 Speaker 1: to go back to your Doge comment when you come back, 1364 01:14:49,720 --> 01:14:51,240 Speaker 1: and also get some more insight where you think these 1365 01:14:51,240 --> 01:14:52,720 Speaker 1: presidents should go with the state of the Union but 1366 01:14:53,160 --> 01:14:55,200 Speaker 1: I just saw an interesting breakdown of what's going on 1367 01:14:55,280 --> 01:14:57,280 Speaker 1: in Minnesota, and I think this is something that we 1368 01:14:57,320 --> 01:15:02,599 Speaker 1: should all scree screaming, all of us Democrats are Republicans alive, 1369 01:15:02,680 --> 01:15:05,120 Speaker 1: screaming from the top of our lungs to stop this 1370 01:15:05,280 --> 01:15:08,000 Speaker 1: from ever being able to happen again. It's a nightmare. 1371 01:15:08,080 --> 01:15:12,759 Speaker 1: What's going on? Fifty five KRCD Talk Station, Happy Tuesday, 1372 01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:15,240 Speaker 1: Brian Thomas with Dave Williams from the Taxpayer Protection Alliance 1373 01:15:15,320 --> 01:15:17,800 Speaker 1: joining the program. Next Tom Zawastowski from We the People Convention. 1374 01:15:17,880 --> 01:15:19,519 Speaker 1: We're going to get his impressions on what he wants 1375 01:15:19,520 --> 01:15:21,519 Speaker 1: from the state of the Union. But also how is 1376 01:15:21,560 --> 01:15:23,160 Speaker 1: it that the Republican Party here in the state of 1377 01:15:23,240 --> 01:15:26,680 Speaker 1: Ohio has endorsed candidates before the primaries. Anyway, back to 1378 01:15:26,760 --> 01:15:30,000 Speaker 1: Dave Williams. I mentioned this article on the air the 1379 01:15:30,040 --> 01:15:33,160 Speaker 1: other day, Dave Williams, and you probably get imprimus. The 1380 01:15:33,320 --> 01:15:39,200 Speaker 1: publication from Hillsdale College Scott Johnson's reporting on the Minnesota 1381 01:15:39,240 --> 01:15:43,960 Speaker 1: Somali fraud scandle is in depth. It's eye opening, and 1382 01:15:44,120 --> 01:15:48,400 Speaker 1: it should enrage people of all political stripes given the 1383 01:15:48,520 --> 01:15:52,720 Speaker 1: literally billions of dollars that were literally stolen from the 1384 01:15:52,720 --> 01:15:57,960 Speaker 1: American taxpayer because they just don't care about following the money. 1385 01:15:58,040 --> 01:16:01,840 Speaker 1: In Minnesota, they made it easy, greased the skids for 1386 01:16:02,040 --> 01:16:06,479 Speaker 1: companies to create fictitious companies to allegedly do something for 1387 01:16:06,640 --> 01:16:10,080 Speaker 1: the people, and then create subsidiary companies, and they rifled 1388 01:16:10,080 --> 01:16:12,240 Speaker 1: money back and forth because they claimed to be serving 1389 01:16:12,360 --> 01:16:16,080 Speaker 1: genuine people. The businesses were set up to serve no one. 1390 01:16:16,520 --> 01:16:19,400 Speaker 1: They created fake people and claimed to be feeding them 1391 01:16:19,479 --> 01:16:21,880 Speaker 1: and clothing them and providing services for them, all on 1392 01:16:21,960 --> 01:16:24,400 Speaker 1: the American taxpayer at all. This is federal money that's 1393 01:16:24,439 --> 01:16:27,799 Speaker 1: being filtered right through into these Somali organizations. This is criminal. 1394 01:16:28,920 --> 01:16:29,599 Speaker 4: This is criminal. 1395 01:16:29,720 --> 01:16:33,360 Speaker 3: This is billions of dollars in one state alone. I 1396 01:16:33,479 --> 01:16:36,080 Speaker 3: know this is happening in other states. We all know 1397 01:16:36,200 --> 01:16:38,240 Speaker 3: that it's happening in other states. And let's look at 1398 01:16:38,280 --> 01:16:40,439 Speaker 3: the discussion that we had last year with the one 1399 01:16:40,479 --> 01:16:44,719 Speaker 3: big beautiful bill and the Medicaid work requirements. Everyone's arms 1400 01:16:44,760 --> 01:16:47,080 Speaker 3: were off saying, oh my gosh, I can't believe that 1401 01:16:47,200 --> 01:16:51,040 Speaker 3: you're cutting Medicaid, that you're requiring people to actually, you know, 1402 01:16:51,160 --> 01:16:53,880 Speaker 3: look for work, and you know there's no waste fraud 1403 01:16:53,920 --> 01:16:56,040 Speaker 3: abuse in Medicaid. And then you know, a couple of 1404 01:16:56,080 --> 01:16:58,080 Speaker 3: months later we see just in one state, was it 1405 01:16:58,200 --> 01:17:02,160 Speaker 3: eight or nine billion dollars in this fraud? And this 1406 01:17:02,400 --> 01:17:05,960 Speaker 3: translates to so much more across the rest of the country, 1407 01:17:06,439 --> 01:17:08,840 Speaker 3: and we know that this is happening. That's the crazy 1408 01:17:08,920 --> 01:17:12,759 Speaker 3: thing is. And it didn't take an auditor and inspector general. 1409 01:17:13,040 --> 01:17:14,160 Speaker 10: This was a YouTuber. 1410 01:17:14,439 --> 01:17:16,720 Speaker 3: This was some sort of social media guy that did this. 1411 01:17:17,840 --> 01:17:17,960 Speaker 2: Was it? 1412 01:17:18,080 --> 01:17:23,800 Speaker 3: Nick Shirley uncovered this? And I mean talk about citizen journalism. 1413 01:17:23,680 --> 01:17:26,360 Speaker 1: Well, I mean Nick Shirley uncovered it, which was a 1414 01:17:26,400 --> 01:17:28,360 Speaker 1: great thing. It opened up a lot of people's eyes. 1415 01:17:28,400 --> 01:17:30,240 Speaker 1: But he's not the first person to do it. Back 1416 01:17:30,320 --> 01:17:33,960 Speaker 1: in twenty thirteen, a local reporter named Jeff Ballion he 1417 01:17:34,080 --> 01:17:36,160 Speaker 1: reported on daycare fraud. Then he also did it in 1418 01:17:36,200 --> 01:17:39,200 Speaker 1: twenty fifteen. And there was another guy, Jay Coles, who 1419 01:17:39,320 --> 01:17:41,280 Speaker 1: is also a local reporter. He went to two of 1420 01:17:41,320 --> 01:17:44,080 Speaker 1: the ten sites that Shirley visited prior to Shirley visited, 1421 01:17:44,120 --> 01:17:47,320 Speaker 1: I mean, found one site guilty of ninety five violations, 1422 01:17:47,360 --> 01:17:50,560 Speaker 1: including no records for sixteen children between twenty nineteen and 1423 01:17:50,600 --> 01:17:53,439 Speaker 1: twenty twenty three. Yet in spite of that reporting and 1424 01:17:53,560 --> 01:17:56,479 Speaker 1: everyone got the report on it, nothing happened and the 1425 01:17:56,560 --> 01:17:59,639 Speaker 1: money continued to flow. That's the insult. And you know why, 1426 01:17:59,760 --> 01:18:04,240 Speaker 1: Dave Williams, they cite it's the concern over claims of racism. 1427 01:18:04,720 --> 01:18:06,040 Speaker 1: And I was talking about this the other day. What 1428 01:18:06,120 --> 01:18:09,160 Speaker 1: a bunch of Barbara Streissan that is. If this was 1429 01:18:09,360 --> 01:18:14,240 Speaker 1: Italian mob activity, Dave, if this was mobsters as in 1430 01:18:14,479 --> 01:18:17,639 Speaker 1: organized crime as we traditionally understand it, you know, godfather 1431 01:18:17,800 --> 01:18:20,360 Speaker 1: level stuff, they would be claiming that the mob has 1432 01:18:20,479 --> 01:18:25,160 Speaker 1: done this. Do mobsters represent all people in the Italian 1433 01:18:25,160 --> 01:18:27,920 Speaker 1: American community or Italians generally, Dave. We know the answer 1434 01:18:27,960 --> 01:18:30,920 Speaker 1: to that is no. Are every single member the Somali 1435 01:18:30,920 --> 01:18:33,639 Speaker 1: community in Minnesota engaged in fraud? I'd venture to say 1436 01:18:33,720 --> 01:18:37,320 Speaker 1: probably not, if not definitively no, Not everyone's involved. What 1437 01:18:37,439 --> 01:18:40,839 Speaker 1: we're focusing on are the criminals within that given community. 1438 01:18:41,360 --> 01:18:45,400 Speaker 3: It's just hmmm, yeah, Brian, this is about virtue signaling, 1439 01:18:45,640 --> 01:18:47,479 Speaker 3: not about trying to save tax. 1440 01:18:47,400 --> 01:18:49,200 Speaker 1: Payer money vir signaling. 1441 01:18:49,439 --> 01:18:53,759 Speaker 3: Yes, absolutely absolutely, And you know they've been hiding behind 1442 01:18:53,840 --> 01:18:56,200 Speaker 3: this for for years. And you mentioned the twenty thirteen 1443 01:18:56,640 --> 01:18:59,160 Speaker 3: I didn't even know that that report. You know that 1444 01:18:59,280 --> 01:19:02,360 Speaker 3: investigation happen and that so this is news to May 1445 01:19:02,479 --> 01:19:03,600 Speaker 3: But twelve. 1446 01:19:03,439 --> 01:19:06,720 Speaker 1: Years read Imprimis. Well, you know, it actually goes back 1447 01:19:06,760 --> 01:19:10,160 Speaker 1: to twenty fifteen when they found out that the smaller 1448 01:19:10,200 --> 01:19:12,280 Speaker 1: community or the yeah, the smaller community up there was 1449 01:19:12,280 --> 01:19:15,240 Speaker 1: a source of ISIS recruits. The FBI opened an investigation, 1450 01:19:15,400 --> 01:19:18,080 Speaker 1: they found and convicted a whole bunch of them, and 1451 01:19:18,200 --> 01:19:20,840 Speaker 1: that kind of spilled over once they got rid of 1452 01:19:20,920 --> 01:19:23,080 Speaker 1: that threat, you know, oh my god, they're all joining ISIS. 1453 01:19:23,160 --> 01:19:24,960 Speaker 1: Then it's billed over. They figured out how to build 1454 01:19:25,000 --> 01:19:28,480 Speaker 1: the welfare system, and this is an in depth analysis 1455 01:19:28,479 --> 01:19:30,240 Speaker 1: of it, which is why I wish everyone would read 1456 01:19:30,280 --> 01:19:33,640 Speaker 1: this article Imprimus, January twenty twenty six, volume fifty five, 1457 01:19:33,760 --> 01:19:36,000 Speaker 1: number one article by Scott Johnson. It's the only thing 1458 01:19:36,080 --> 01:19:39,439 Speaker 1: printed in the in the flyer. Read it. It's eye opening, 1459 01:19:39,520 --> 01:19:42,519 Speaker 1: and it's frightening, scary, and it really, quite frankly, angers me, 1460 01:19:42,600 --> 01:19:44,000 Speaker 1: as you can tell by the tone of my voice. 1461 01:19:44,080 --> 01:19:44,599 Speaker 1: Dave Williams. 1462 01:19:44,960 --> 01:19:47,439 Speaker 3: And what's the follow up, Brian, that's a follow up 1463 01:19:47,479 --> 01:19:50,439 Speaker 3: to make sure this doesn't happen again. You know, state officials, 1464 01:19:50,520 --> 01:19:53,760 Speaker 3: federal officials have such a short attention span is that 1465 01:19:54,120 --> 01:19:55,920 Speaker 3: they're happy to talk about it for a week, but 1466 01:19:56,000 --> 01:19:58,640 Speaker 3: there will be no follow up to this whatsoever. 1467 01:19:58,240 --> 01:20:00,439 Speaker 1: Which is why I think it's in spite of the 1468 01:20:00,479 --> 01:20:01,840 Speaker 1: fact you don't think it's going to be brought up 1469 01:20:01,880 --> 01:20:05,120 Speaker 1: the Doge efforts. That's exactly what should be highlighted. You 1470 01:20:05,200 --> 01:20:07,080 Speaker 1: know what, if I was Donald Trump, I take five 1471 01:20:07,160 --> 01:20:09,680 Speaker 1: to ten minutes of my time, I would read verbatim 1472 01:20:09,720 --> 01:20:12,400 Speaker 1: this article and we welcome to the American people waking 1473 01:20:12,520 --> 01:20:15,880 Speaker 1: up to this challenge, this reality. They don't care once 1474 01:20:15,960 --> 01:20:18,599 Speaker 1: the money's been sent out the door. They just seems 1475 01:20:18,600 --> 01:20:20,040 Speaker 1: to be quite happy with the fact that it's being 1476 01:20:20,080 --> 01:20:23,640 Speaker 1: stolen in funding the Somali community and even terrorists Al 1477 01:20:23,680 --> 01:20:25,080 Speaker 1: Shabab got some money out of this. 1478 01:20:26,479 --> 01:20:29,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, outrageous. And listen, I really hope, you know, he 1479 01:20:29,320 --> 01:20:32,400 Speaker 3: does talk about waste, ratten abuse tonight. I hope that 1480 01:20:32,840 --> 01:20:37,360 Speaker 3: there is some sort of fiscal message other than spending 1481 01:20:37,720 --> 01:20:41,000 Speaker 3: more money. I hope they're in and you know, tax reform. 1482 01:20:41,080 --> 01:20:43,960 Speaker 3: So here's kind of a take on the he's suing 1483 01:20:44,040 --> 01:20:46,920 Speaker 3: the IRS for the leaked records. It's the ten billion 1484 01:20:46,960 --> 01:20:50,600 Speaker 3: dollar lawsuit against the IRS. I am supportive of this 1485 01:20:50,720 --> 01:20:54,200 Speaker 3: lawsuit except for the ten billion dollars. The IRS has 1486 01:20:54,280 --> 01:20:57,320 Speaker 3: to be held accountable for what they are doing for 1487 01:20:57,520 --> 01:21:02,280 Speaker 3: leaking information. Now, should Donald Trump or nonprofits get the 1488 01:21:02,360 --> 01:21:05,000 Speaker 3: ten billion? Now, this is not about the money, It's 1489 01:21:05,040 --> 01:21:08,720 Speaker 3: about holding people accountable at these agencies. We've seen this 1490 01:21:08,840 --> 01:21:11,960 Speaker 3: for the past ten to fifteen years where the IRS 1491 01:21:12,080 --> 01:21:17,240 Speaker 3: leaks information. Lois Lerner she refused to give nonprofit status 1492 01:21:17,320 --> 01:21:21,400 Speaker 3: to right wing to conservative groups. This has been ongoing 1493 01:21:21,600 --> 01:21:24,960 Speaker 3: at the IRS and nothing is ever done, No names 1494 01:21:24,960 --> 01:21:26,600 Speaker 3: are ever released as to who did this. 1495 01:21:26,800 --> 01:21:27,719 Speaker 1: No one is fired. 1496 01:21:28,000 --> 01:21:31,920 Speaker 3: So if this lawsuit does anything, I hope it brings 1497 01:21:32,120 --> 01:21:35,080 Speaker 3: that out and we find out who was responsible for 1498 01:21:35,200 --> 01:21:36,559 Speaker 3: this and they get fired. 1499 01:21:37,200 --> 01:21:40,439 Speaker 1: Amen.

Yeah, 1515 01:22:23,240 --> 01:22:26,720 Speaker 4: I'm in a good mood this morning, bro us tonight. 1516 01:22:26,840 --> 01:22:29,519 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah. And we'll get to the State of the 1517 01:22:29,600 --> 01:22:31,439 Speaker 1: Union address here. At a moment, I got a comment 1518 01:22:31,479 --> 01:22:33,840 Speaker 1: I did not mention the hockey victory, and I kind 1519 01:22:33,840 --> 01:22:36,320 Speaker 1: of felt badly that I didn't. It was a fantastic game. 1520 01:22:36,360 --> 01:22:38,280 Speaker 1: I thoroughly enjoyed watching it, even though I'm not a 1521 01:22:38,640 --> 01:22:41,840 Speaker 1: huge hockey fan. But I remember watching the Dream Team 1522 01:22:41,880 --> 01:22:44,280 Speaker 1: back in nineteen eighty beat the Soviets. You know what 1523 01:22:44,360 --> 01:22:46,920 Speaker 1: I forgot about that. I remember being elated. It was 1524 01:22:47,000 --> 01:22:50,200 Speaker 1: a moment of true patriotism. You could feel it surgeon 1525 01:22:50,280 --> 01:22:53,680 Speaker 1: through your body. We beat the Soviet Union, but the 1526 01:22:53,760 --> 01:22:56,080 Speaker 1: one element and I was trying to compare my reaction 1527 01:22:56,240 --> 01:22:58,360 Speaker 1: to the win for the United States just the other 1528 01:22:58,520 --> 01:23:00,760 Speaker 1: day to that one, because I didn't feel that same 1529 01:23:00,960 --> 01:23:04,720 Speaker 1: surge of emotion and enthusiasm. Yeah maybe I'm sixty or whatever. No, 1530 01:23:04,840 --> 01:23:06,439 Speaker 1: you know what was absent from it, And this is 1531 01:23:06,520 --> 01:23:10,080 Speaker 1: not to negate from the victory nineteen eighty. Those were 1532 01:23:10,160 --> 01:23:13,599 Speaker 1: all amateurs. Remember, they couldn't allow they didn't allow professional 1533 01:23:13,680 --> 01:23:15,479 Speaker 1: sports players. It wasn't like they got folks from the 1534 01:23:15,560 --> 01:23:19,000 Speaker 1: Blackhawks playing in the Olympics. These were just like college kids, 1535 01:23:19,720 --> 01:23:25,080 Speaker 1: that's who. The Russians were all pros, right, those right, 1536 01:23:25,360 --> 01:23:28,519 Speaker 1: So big distinction between the two victories, and I just 1537 01:23:28,600 --> 01:23:31,439 Speaker 1: didn't want it to be overlooked that it was great 1538 01:23:31,520 --> 01:23:34,160 Speaker 1: in both cases. But I give the ad to the 1539 01:23:34,240 --> 01:23:36,160 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty team just given the fact that they were 1540 01:23:36,200 --> 01:23:40,479 Speaker 1: all amateurs playing against you know, hardened Russian thug pros. 1541 01:23:40,840 --> 01:23:42,320 Speaker 1: All right, we're out of time. In this segment, we'll 1542 01:23:42,360 --> 01:23:45,360 Speaker 1: bring Tomas Alstowski back to talk about the state of 1543 01:23:45,400 --> 01:23:47,439 Speaker 1: the Union, as well as maybe a comment or two 1544 01:23:47,439 --> 01:23:50,840 Speaker 1: about the Ohigh Republican Party endorsing candidates in advance of 1545 01:23:50,880 --> 01:23:52,840 Speaker 1: the primary. It's got some of my listeners rubbed the 1546 01:23:52,840 --> 01:23:55,120 Speaker 1: wrong way and maybe me a little bit too. More 1547 01:23:55,240 --> 01:24:00,400 Speaker 1: with Tom z Awastowski, a seven thirty five care CD 1548 01:24:00,520 --> 01:24:02,439 Speaker 1: talk station find it, but we the People Convention dot 1549 01:24:02,600 --> 01:24:05,640 Speaker 1: Org and check out his weekly podcast, It's Tom's Austowski. 1550 01:24:05,720 --> 01:24:07,160 Speaker 1: We're gonna piot over to the Supreme State of the 1551 01:24:07,240 --> 01:24:10,360 Speaker 1: Union address that's tonight. I talked in the last segment 1552 01:24:10,400 --> 01:24:13,200 Speaker 1: with Dave Williams from the Taxpayer Protection Alliance, and although 1553 01:24:13,280 --> 01:24:14,800 Speaker 1: we both agree and you can chime in on the 1554 01:24:14,920 --> 01:24:17,000 Speaker 1: length of time it's gonna take, it's probably gonna go 1555 01:24:17,080 --> 01:24:19,040 Speaker 1: really long. And in fact, Donald Trump even commented how 1556 01:24:19,080 --> 01:24:20,599 Speaker 1: long it's going to be get ahead of the speech, 1557 01:24:21,240 --> 01:24:25,479 Speaker 1: but he suggested and again we're just tea leaf reading 1558 01:24:25,520 --> 01:24:29,639 Speaker 1: here or taking guesses that Trump probably will not mention 1559 01:24:29,960 --> 01:24:33,479 Speaker 1: like doge or fraud, wasted abuse. And I think, to me, 1560 01:24:33,720 --> 01:24:36,040 Speaker 1: that's one of the most important issues that we face 1561 01:24:36,120 --> 01:24:39,519 Speaker 1: today given what's unfolded in Minneapolis among the Somali community, 1562 01:24:39,760 --> 01:24:42,800 Speaker 1: the fraudsters and criminals in that community, not all of 1563 01:24:42,880 --> 01:24:44,759 Speaker 1: them for you people and accuse me of being racist, 1564 01:24:44,840 --> 01:24:49,679 Speaker 1: shut up, but billions and billions they're talking. It's already 1565 01:24:49,720 --> 01:24:52,920 Speaker 1: they found like nine billion dollars in just stolen money, 1566 01:24:53,600 --> 01:24:55,439 Speaker 1: but it may be much much bigger than that. And 1567 01:24:55,520 --> 01:24:58,800 Speaker 1: Tom's ALASKAUSI that's one city in this entire country of ours, 1568 01:24:58,800 --> 01:25:02,760 Speaker 1: of three hundred and fifty million people. You know, it's everywhere, 1569 01:25:02,920 --> 01:25:06,080 Speaker 1: or potentially everywhere. This is something that every single person 1570 01:25:06,080 --> 01:25:09,040 Speaker 1: who pays money in the American taxation system should be 1571 01:25:09,240 --> 01:25:10,240 Speaker 1: outraged about. 1572 01:25:11,760 --> 01:25:14,439 Speaker 4: Yeah, Brian, I think you guys are onto something. You know, 1573 01:25:14,800 --> 01:25:17,160 Speaker 4: we talk about, you know, and the problem in Trump 1574 01:25:17,240 --> 01:25:19,479 Speaker 4: time is there's so much going on, you know, you 1575 01:25:19,600 --> 01:25:23,040 Speaker 4: can't you know, focus. But here's the truth. I think 1576 01:25:23,360 --> 01:25:26,479 Speaker 4: that what you're talking about, the theft of our tax dollars, 1577 01:25:26,800 --> 01:25:29,920 Speaker 4: is what resonates with all of us, right. You know, 1578 01:25:30,120 --> 01:25:32,840 Speaker 4: we're watching what's going on Minneapolis about your ice and 1579 01:25:32,920 --> 01:25:35,480 Speaker 4: all that. Well, you know, ice isn't in my neighborhood. 1580 01:25:35,680 --> 01:25:38,320 Speaker 4: I'm not having that problem. I can't really relate to it. 1581 01:25:38,560 --> 01:25:41,559 Speaker 4: But boy, when they start talking about nine billion dollars 1582 01:25:41,840 --> 01:25:45,759 Speaker 4: of Medicare money or other you know, social welfare programs 1583 01:25:45,800 --> 01:25:49,120 Speaker 4: being stolen, that's my money. And everyone I talked to 1584 01:25:49,320 --> 01:25:52,679 Speaker 4: is animated about that. So I agree, if President Trump 1585 01:25:53,160 --> 01:25:55,560 Speaker 4: does take your advice and he does talk about that, 1586 01:25:56,120 --> 01:25:58,960 Speaker 4: it's going to be more important than almost anything else 1587 01:25:59,000 --> 01:26:01,800 Speaker 4: he says, because it affects all of us, right, and 1588 01:26:01,960 --> 01:26:05,880 Speaker 4: we are personally offended by that and we want it fixed. 1589 01:26:06,280 --> 01:26:09,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's so simple to do. Who could 1590 01:26:09,760 --> 01:26:12,479 Speaker 1: argue with him if he says, listen, I want to 1591 01:26:12,520 --> 01:26:15,200 Speaker 1: have a straight, face to face. I want to reveal 1592 01:26:15,280 --> 01:26:18,400 Speaker 1: this to you. Are you a tax payer and you 1593 01:26:18,520 --> 01:26:20,920 Speaker 1: could be of any political stripe if you're paying money 1594 01:26:20,960 --> 01:26:24,479 Speaker 1: into the system, or you're reliant upon this system, like 1595 01:26:24,560 --> 01:26:26,880 Speaker 1: to say, someone on Social Security who's getting ready to 1596 01:26:26,920 --> 01:26:29,879 Speaker 1: go on Social Security and realizes it's going to bankrupt 1597 01:26:29,960 --> 01:26:33,280 Speaker 1: itself just a way that's been designed by design, then 1598 01:26:33,320 --> 01:26:37,280 Speaker 1: you would be upset if you knew that billions of dollars, 1599 01:26:37,360 --> 01:26:39,599 Speaker 1: maybe tens of billions, who knows how much it can 1600 01:26:39,640 --> 01:26:41,320 Speaker 1: be by way of fraud, waste and abuse that they've 1601 01:26:41,320 --> 01:26:45,880 Speaker 1: already identified nine billion in Minneapolis alone. That resonates this 1602 01:26:46,080 --> 01:26:49,560 Speaker 1: is not a political thing. This is criminal behavior and 1603 01:26:49,680 --> 01:26:54,240 Speaker 1: it cannot be excused, and I cannot be left without 1604 01:26:54,280 --> 01:26:57,320 Speaker 1: prosecution or maybe efforts to claw that money back to 1605 01:26:57,360 --> 01:26:59,400 Speaker 1: the extent it hasn't gone into the ether, but damn it, 1606 01:27:00,080 --> 01:27:01,960 Speaker 1: everyone should be outraged. Everyone. 1607 01:27:02,960 --> 01:27:05,880 Speaker 4: Well, Brian, and you know I've heard numbers from Tom 1608 01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:09,320 Speaker 4: Cotton and others that the total might be a trillion 1609 01:27:09,439 --> 01:27:13,040 Speaker 4: dollars yep a year. That's trillion dollars a year. And 1610 01:27:13,560 --> 01:27:15,920 Speaker 4: we wouldn't be surprised by that because, as you said, 1611 01:27:16,040 --> 01:27:19,400 Speaker 4: you read the Imprimis article. Oh my gosh, I mean, 1612 01:27:19,479 --> 01:27:22,680 Speaker 4: it's so easy to steal from us. It's just insane. 1613 01:27:23,160 --> 01:27:26,599 Speaker 4: They don't care, like you said, they just don't care. Well, 1614 01:27:26,640 --> 01:27:30,439 Speaker 4: they better start, Karen, because this is real money and 1615 01:27:30,600 --> 01:27:34,240 Speaker 4: we're real upset about it. And I again, let's take action, folks, 1616 01:27:34,479 --> 01:27:37,360 Speaker 4: everyone listening. Give a call to your senator, give a 1617 01:27:37,439 --> 01:27:40,000 Speaker 4: call to your congressman, and say, listen, this is a 1618 01:27:40,160 --> 01:27:44,040 Speaker 4: top priority for me. You need to guard our money. 1619 01:27:44,200 --> 01:27:48,000 Speaker 4: That's your job is to guard our hard earned tax dollars. 1620 01:27:48,400 --> 01:27:51,240 Speaker 1: Well, you know, Tom, isn't it sort of a strange 1621 01:27:51,320 --> 01:27:57,400 Speaker 1: thing that if Democrats were demanding accountability in any given 1622 01:27:57,479 --> 01:27:59,840 Speaker 1: program whatsoever. Let let's say, let's turn over to some 1623 01:28:00,000 --> 01:28:03,400 Speaker 1: and they typically do not like defense spending. And Tom, 1624 01:28:03,520 --> 01:28:05,200 Speaker 1: I'll be the first person to say, this should be 1625 01:28:05,479 --> 01:28:08,200 Speaker 1: huge audit of the Defense Department because last eight times 1626 01:28:08,240 --> 01:28:09,920 Speaker 1: they tried to do it, they didn't have records that 1627 01:28:09,920 --> 01:28:12,439 Speaker 1: would allow them to even conduct an audit. Red flag, 1628 01:28:12,840 --> 01:28:14,840 Speaker 1: that's my money. I want to spend properly. I want 1629 01:28:14,840 --> 01:28:17,400 Speaker 1: the American military funded properly. But if the Democrats would 1630 01:28:17,400 --> 01:28:19,160 Speaker 1: say that, we would have said, okay, well, who can 1631 01:28:19,240 --> 01:28:21,840 Speaker 1: argue with that? Who can argue with that? The question 1632 01:28:21,960 --> 01:28:25,040 Speaker 1: Tom's alistause he becomes when they don't want to investigate it, 1633 01:28:25,040 --> 01:28:26,600 Speaker 1: when they want to turn the blind eye into it, 1634 01:28:26,680 --> 01:28:28,720 Speaker 1: blind eye to it, or they don't even want to 1635 01:28:28,760 --> 01:28:32,200 Speaker 1: talk about it. What in the hell nefarious activity is 1636 01:28:32,280 --> 01:28:36,200 Speaker 1: going on behind the scenes of this outwardly criminal activity. 1637 01:28:36,320 --> 01:28:40,920 Speaker 4: Tom, Well, that's the part that hears me, Brian. It's 1638 01:28:41,000 --> 01:28:43,719 Speaker 4: the people that, let you know, I remember Max Miller 1639 01:28:43,760 --> 01:28:46,719 Speaker 4: did an interview a couple of weeks ago our Congress 1640 01:28:46,760 --> 01:28:49,679 Speaker 4: went up here and he said, oh, in every House 1641 01:28:49,760 --> 01:28:54,040 Speaker 4: committee we have people who are jobbing is to look 1642 01:28:54,080 --> 01:28:56,720 Speaker 4: for fraud. And he said, we're going to look into that. 1643 01:28:56,880 --> 01:28:58,880 Speaker 4: I said, look into it. They've been doing it for 1644 01:28:59,080 --> 01:29:02,200 Speaker 4: fifteen years and you never found it, then why would 1645 01:29:02,200 --> 01:29:04,559 Speaker 4: I think you're going to find it now? The problem 1646 01:29:04,720 --> 01:29:08,920 Speaker 4: is it's institutionalized fraud and both parties are aware of 1647 01:29:09,000 --> 01:29:12,080 Speaker 4: it and in on it. And that's what's so scary, 1648 01:29:12,320 --> 01:29:15,080 Speaker 4: and that's why Donald Trump's job is so difficult. And 1649 01:29:15,240 --> 01:29:17,640 Speaker 4: cash Mattel and Pam BONDI and the rest of them 1650 01:29:17,720 --> 01:29:19,639 Speaker 4: because the whole system is corrupt. 1651 01:29:20,680 --> 01:29:23,120 Speaker 1: Well tell you what, Tom, based upon our conversation, the 1652 01:29:23,160 --> 01:29:25,080 Speaker 1: fact that I brought that in Primus article up so much, 1653 01:29:25,160 --> 01:29:27,280 Speaker 1: I just sent the link to juzz tracker.

Well, maybe not. We'll 1663 01:29:52,800 --> 01:29:54,600 Speaker 1: see what happens. Is he wants if you about car 1664 01:29:54,720 --> 01:29:58,200 Speaker 1: Ce Talks Station Happy Tuesday, you get the inside scoop 1665 01:29:58,240 --> 01:29:59,400 Speaker 1: up at the top of the our News White House 1666 01:29:59,400 --> 01:30:02,320 Speaker 1: corresponding Gilbertson also talking about the state of the Indian 1667 01:30:02,360 --> 01:30:04,720 Speaker 1: address tonight Daniel Davis Dee dive at eight thirty and 1668 01:30:04,920 --> 01:30:08,439 Speaker 1: in the meantime, Tom's Awastowski. We the people Convention dot Org. Tom, 1669 01:30:08,760 --> 01:30:10,639 Speaker 1: what's your take on the Republican Party here in Ohio 1670 01:30:10,760 --> 01:30:13,200 Speaker 1: endorsing candidates in advance of the primary. Now I kind 1671 01:30:13,240 --> 01:30:15,960 Speaker 1: of understood. I happen to like VV Ramaswa. I mean, 1672 01:30:16,000 --> 01:30:17,679 Speaker 1: say what you want. I think he's a good guy, smart, 1673 01:30:17,680 --> 01:30:19,560 Speaker 1: I've met him, you know, I just is brilliant. I 1674 01:30:19,560 --> 01:30:21,479 Speaker 1: think it'll be good for Ohio, and I kind of 1675 01:30:21,600 --> 01:30:24,040 Speaker 1: understand why the Republican Party might have wanted to endorse 1676 01:30:24,120 --> 01:30:26,120 Speaker 1: him for governor in advance. First off, he was way 1677 01:30:26,160 --> 01:30:27,960 Speaker 1: ahead and of all the polls that I was aware of. 1678 01:30:28,320 --> 01:30:31,000 Speaker 1: But to take the money interest component out of it, 1679 01:30:31,240 --> 01:30:32,920 Speaker 1: they have to fight a primary. They're going to be 1680 01:30:32,960 --> 01:30:34,840 Speaker 1: a lot of money spent this guy versus that guy. 1681 01:30:34,880 --> 01:30:37,160 Speaker 1: In order to avoid that problem, just go ahead and 1682 01:30:37,240 --> 01:30:39,120 Speaker 1: endorse him and move on. That seems to have worked 1683 01:30:39,160 --> 01:30:41,439 Speaker 1: in that particular case. But I was kind of puzzled 1684 01:30:41,680 --> 01:30:44,720 Speaker 1: because Marcel Sturbage came across as a real, I mean, 1685 01:30:44,800 --> 01:30:47,840 Speaker 1: a brilliant guy. I mean, he is committed, he knows 1686 01:30:47,920 --> 01:30:50,760 Speaker 1: the issues, he can talk fairly, plainly and clearly on them, 1687 01:30:51,240 --> 01:30:53,680 Speaker 1: and so a lot of the polls I guess had 1688 01:30:53,760 --> 01:30:56,639 Speaker 1: him ahead over Robert Sprague and yet the Republican Party 1689 01:30:56,640 --> 01:30:59,439 Speaker 1: in Ohio went ahead and endorse Robert Sprague. You got 1690 01:30:59,520 --> 01:31:01,040 Speaker 1: a problem with that time, because a lot of my 1691 01:31:01,160 --> 01:31:03,439 Speaker 1: listeners are screaming in my ear, you know, via text 1692 01:31:03,479 --> 01:31:05,880 Speaker 1: message and another communication that they are kind of angry. 1693 01:31:07,320 --> 01:31:09,920 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I've got a problem with that, because, again, 1694 01:31:10,000 --> 01:31:13,320 Speaker 4: it was just dirty politics. It wasn't about hey, let's 1695 01:31:13,400 --> 01:31:17,200 Speaker 4: talk about which qualifications each candidate has and let's pick 1696 01:31:17,240 --> 01:31:21,040 Speaker 4: the best candidate. It was about party power. And so 1697 01:31:21,320 --> 01:31:23,320 Speaker 4: you know, there was a hit piece put out by 1698 01:31:23,479 --> 01:31:26,679 Speaker 4: you know, the Luke Abrazi of the Republican Party, Dave 1699 01:31:26,840 --> 01:31:30,920 Speaker 4: Johnson from Trombull County, Okay, who you know, just you know, 1700 01:31:31,120 --> 01:31:34,679 Speaker 4: put out this horrible uh, Colombiana County, I'm sorry, put 1701 01:31:34,720 --> 01:31:37,280 Speaker 4: out this terrible hit piece on stourage about how he 1702 01:31:37,360 --> 01:31:40,759 Speaker 4: didn't raise money right and he's affiliating with the wrong people, 1703 01:31:41,120 --> 01:31:44,240 Speaker 4: et cetera. You know, here's the problem, Brian. You know, 1704 01:31:44,600 --> 01:31:47,080 Speaker 4: I think you and I both agree with President Washington 1705 01:31:47,120 --> 01:31:49,560 Speaker 4: who said the political parties would be the death of 1706 01:31:49,600 --> 01:31:52,960 Speaker 4: the republic. I wish there were no political parties. I 1707 01:31:53,080 --> 01:31:55,000 Speaker 4: also have a problem, and you would too. I think 1708 01:31:55,240 --> 01:31:59,679 Speaker 4: that why do we the taxpayers spend twenty five million dollars. 1709 01:32:00,080 --> 01:32:02,280 Speaker 4: That's what it's going to cost for us to put 1710 01:32:02,360 --> 01:32:07,320 Speaker 4: on the May sixth primary this year for private institutions. 1711 01:32:07,600 --> 01:32:11,840 Speaker 4: The Republican Party and the Democratic Party are not government agencies, 1712 01:32:11,880 --> 01:32:15,960 Speaker 4: they are private companies. Why are we paying for them 1713 01:32:16,040 --> 01:32:19,200 Speaker 4: to put on a primary? That's a sham, that's just 1714 01:32:19,360 --> 01:32:23,280 Speaker 4: basically a scam. And that's what I don't like. I 1715 01:32:23,400 --> 01:32:25,880 Speaker 4: think I told Marcel, I said, Marcel, you should have 1716 01:32:25,960 --> 01:32:28,200 Speaker 4: ran as an independent. Why do you want to play 1717 01:32:28,280 --> 01:32:31,280 Speaker 4: these stupid party games when it's it's a rig game. 1718 01:32:31,400 --> 01:32:34,639 Speaker 4: You can't win a rig game. So I'm I'm mad 1719 01:32:34,720 --> 01:32:37,200 Speaker 4: about it. But I still tell people you can still 1720 01:32:37,280 --> 01:32:39,439 Speaker 4: show up for the primary and vote for Marcel. 1721 01:32:39,640 --> 01:32:40,080 Speaker 1: That is true. 1722 01:32:40,160 --> 01:32:43,120 Speaker 4: Endorsement is the decision. You can vote. But you know what, 1723 01:32:43,320 --> 01:32:46,719 Speaker 4: it's a big finger on the scale because the candidates 1724 01:32:46,800 --> 01:32:50,240 Speaker 4: that get indoors get to use the parties has a 1725 01:32:50,280 --> 01:32:53,479 Speaker 4: special deal for mailings and things like that that save 1726 01:32:53,560 --> 01:32:56,600 Speaker 4: you're like fifty percent of the cost of campaigning, and 1727 01:32:56,840 --> 01:32:57,960 Speaker 4: Marcel's not going to have that. 1728 01:32:58,160 --> 01:33:00,800 Speaker 1: Robert Sprig's going to well, it's how are the pink slip, 1729 01:33:00,880 --> 01:33:01,120 Speaker 1: isn't it? 1730 01:33:01,240 --> 01:33:01,439 Speaker 7: Tom? 1731 01:33:01,560 --> 01:33:04,200 Speaker 1: So many people are not fully engaged in politics, haven't 1732 01:33:04,200 --> 01:33:06,400 Speaker 1: taken the time to do their own homework and determined 1733 01:33:06,400 --> 01:33:09,200 Speaker 1: whether or not, you know, Sprague or Sturvage is the 1734 01:33:09,240 --> 01:33:11,840 Speaker 1: better candidate. They just look at the pink slip and say, oh, 1735 01:33:12,320 --> 01:33:14,559 Speaker 1: that's what the Republican Party endorsed, and that's what I'm 1736 01:33:14,560 --> 01:33:16,360 Speaker 1: going to vote for because I don't know if they 1737 01:33:16,439 --> 01:33:17,080 Speaker 1: bother to vote. 1738 01:33:18,360 --> 01:33:20,519 Speaker 4: Yeah, if they bother to vote, And I think that's 1739 01:33:20,560 --> 01:33:23,280 Speaker 4: the thing I'm really scared about.

This is a couple of days after he 1810 01:36:37,120 --> 01:36:40,680 Speaker 6: was nearly assassinated on national television, right, and he went 1811 01:36:40,800 --> 01:36:43,280 Speaker 6: up and I think he broke the record for length 1812 01:36:43,400 --> 01:36:47,280 Speaker 6: of an RNC acceptance speech, you know, for the nomination. 1813 01:36:47,520 --> 01:36:50,360 Speaker 6: So I wouldn't be surprised to see the president, know, 1814 01:36:50,680 --> 01:36:52,439 Speaker 6: you know, well over an hour and a half, maybe 1815 01:36:52,520 --> 01:36:56,400 Speaker 6: two hours here tonight. You know, we'll see And yeah, 1816 01:36:56,720 --> 01:36:58,880 Speaker 6: I mean we're ready for it if he does whatever 1817 01:36:59,080 --> 01:36:59,839 Speaker 6: whatever happened. 1818 01:37:00,080 --> 01:37:01,600 Speaker 1: Well, I had a good friend Dave Oyams from the 1819 01:37:01,640 --> 01:37:04,280 Speaker 1: Taxpayer Protection Alliance on earlier. He comes on the program 1820 01:37:04,320 --> 01:37:06,160 Speaker 1: about once a month, and he was talking about what 1821 01:37:06,280 --> 01:37:09,160 Speaker 1: this what President Trump should in might address, but he 1822 01:37:09,360 --> 01:37:11,479 Speaker 1: was of the opinion and it really bothered me. Not 1823 01:37:11,720 --> 01:37:13,360 Speaker 1: that I disagree with him, because we're on that we're 1824 01:37:13,400 --> 01:37:16,479 Speaker 1: just guessing what he's going to say. But Dave was 1825 01:37:16,520 --> 01:37:20,040 Speaker 1: suggesting maybe Trump won't talk about the Doge type work, 1826 01:37:20,560 --> 01:37:24,360 Speaker 1: and I just my reaction was, wait a second, and 1827 01:37:24,520 --> 01:37:27,479 Speaker 1: I'm again referring my listeners now to my blog page 1828 01:37:27,520 --> 01:37:29,479 Speaker 1: fifty five kcy dot com where the article I have 1829 01:37:29,640 --> 01:37:32,519 Speaker 1: been so blown up about the Scott Johnson Imprimus Law 1830 01:37:32,640 --> 01:37:36,120 Speaker 1: article Learning from Minnesota Somali Fraud's Candle. What an eye 1831 01:37:36,160 --> 01:37:39,120 Speaker 1: opener the detail that Scott Johnson and that article goes 1832 01:37:39,160 --> 01:37:41,519 Speaker 1: through and breaks down on how the fraud was commuted 1833 01:37:41,560 --> 01:37:43,800 Speaker 1: and the amount of fraud. And when I look at 1834 01:37:43,800 --> 01:37:46,519 Speaker 1: the fact that this is one city or area of 1835 01:37:46,640 --> 01:37:49,719 Speaker 1: the country and they have already identified about nine billion 1836 01:37:49,840 --> 01:37:53,280 Speaker 1: and ever growing amounts of fraud and these social welfare 1837 01:37:53,360 --> 01:37:57,800 Speaker 1: programs that the Somali community was builking American taxpayer for nick, 1838 01:37:58,600 --> 01:38:03,600 Speaker 1: this is regardless political stripe, American taxpayer money. It was 1839 01:38:03,840 --> 01:38:09,759 Speaker 1: outright stolen in a well organized criminal enterprise. Everyone should 1840 01:38:09,800 --> 01:38:11,880 Speaker 1: be pissed off. If I may be so bold as 1841 01:38:11,880 --> 01:38:14,240 Speaker 1: a characterize it like that, Nick, this doesn't bear a 1842 01:38:14,320 --> 01:38:19,720 Speaker 1: political stripe. Our labor converted to taxpayer dollars was literally stolen. 1843 01:38:20,120 --> 01:38:21,800 Speaker 1: I think you should be all over that, like white 1844 01:38:21,840 --> 01:38:22,240 Speaker 1: on Rice. 1845 01:38:22,520 --> 01:38:22,720 Speaker 4: Nick. 1846 01:38:24,240 --> 01:38:26,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, absolutely, Brian, I think this is not this should 1847 01:38:26,960 --> 01:38:29,920 Speaker 6: not be a part of an issue, even though even 1848 01:38:29,960 --> 01:38:32,040 Speaker 6: though the Democrats have made it this way. These are 1849 01:38:32,520 --> 01:38:35,439 Speaker 6: you know, the hard work, you know, the hard earned 1850 01:38:35,520 --> 01:38:39,040 Speaker 6: tax dollars of you, of me, of your listeners, of 1851 01:38:39,160 --> 01:38:42,120 Speaker 6: everybody around this country that days into the system, right, 1852 01:38:42,200 --> 01:38:45,720 Speaker 6: and these dollars were stolen. And you know Governor Tim 1853 01:38:45,800 --> 01:38:49,400 Speaker 6: Waltz and you know the Democrats running things over there 1854 01:38:49,439 --> 01:38:52,040 Speaker 6: in Minnesota. It kind of happened under their nose. That 1855 01:38:52,120 --> 01:38:54,240 Speaker 6: looks like maybe some of them may be even new 1856 01:38:54,240 --> 01:38:57,040 Speaker 6: about it. Who knows that. You know, there's investigations going 1857 01:38:57,120 --> 01:38:58,080 Speaker 6: on into all this stuff. 1858 01:38:58,120 --> 01:38:58,280 Speaker 4: Now. 1859 01:38:59,040 --> 01:39:01,599 Speaker 6: I think, you know, I think we we could potentially 1860 01:39:01,680 --> 01:39:04,440 Speaker 6: see and liked you said, we're kind of just speculating 1861 01:39:04,520 --> 01:39:06,760 Speaker 6: as to what the President's going to talk about, but 1862 01:39:06,840 --> 01:39:09,960 Speaker 6: I imagine, you know, he could go and mention some 1863 01:39:10,120 --> 01:39:13,640 Speaker 6: things about this, whether it's in the prepared remarks or 1864 01:39:13,680 --> 01:39:16,160 Speaker 6: he kind of adds it on cuff. And I know 1865 01:39:16,320 --> 01:39:20,519 Speaker 6: he always says California in his estimation and what he 1866 01:39:20,680 --> 01:39:25,040 Speaker 6: thinks is probably even worse than Minnesota. And there's these 1867 01:39:25,200 --> 01:39:28,800 Speaker 6: blue states all around the country where I mean, you know, 1868 01:39:28,920 --> 01:39:31,040 Speaker 6: I think the hard book needs to be taken at 1869 01:39:31,240 --> 01:39:35,000 Speaker 6: what exactly is going on, you know, with these benefit 1870 01:39:35,080 --> 01:39:38,040 Speaker 6: systems and tracking on audits of all this money. 1871 01:39:38,200 --> 01:39:38,320 Speaker 7: Right. 1872 01:39:39,040 --> 01:39:41,240 Speaker 6: I know one thing the President is going to talk 1873 01:39:41,280 --> 01:39:43,960 Speaker 6: about tonight, according to Fox News, is he's going to 1874 01:39:44,360 --> 01:39:48,040 Speaker 6: center this thing on working families and making a big 1875 01:39:48,200 --> 01:39:53,280 Speaker 6: economic case. And I think that's probably, you know, a 1876 01:39:53,360 --> 01:39:56,400 Speaker 6: great decision, I think, especially ahead of midterms coming up 1877 01:39:56,800 --> 01:39:59,920 Speaker 6: in November. You know, you think of James Carvell, Right, 1878 01:40:00,040 --> 01:40:02,800 Speaker 6: it's the economy, stupid, right, That's that's and it always 1879 01:40:02,880 --> 01:40:06,320 Speaker 6: is the economy in my opinion in most all cases, 1880 01:40:07,120 --> 01:40:09,439 Speaker 6: coming up on a big election like this, and I 1881 01:40:09,520 --> 01:40:12,040 Speaker 6: think President Trump has a great economic case to go 1882 01:40:12,400 --> 01:40:16,519 Speaker 6: layout and make tonight. Wages are outpacing inflation, right. I 1883 01:40:16,600 --> 01:40:19,880 Speaker 6: think that's one of the big crowning achievements he's had 1884 01:40:20,360 --> 01:40:22,360 Speaker 6: in his first year back in office. I mean, from 1885 01:40:22,439 --> 01:40:26,120 Speaker 6: January twenty five to January twenty six, you had inflation 1886 01:40:26,320 --> 01:40:28,920 Speaker 6: up two point five percent year over year. And that's 1887 01:40:29,000 --> 01:40:31,680 Speaker 6: after you know, that's a pretty low number, that's kind 1888 01:40:31,680 --> 01:40:32,599 Speaker 6: of right where you want. 1889 01:40:32,520 --> 01:40:32,800 Speaker 1: It to be. 1890 01:40:33,880 --> 01:40:38,000 Speaker 6: After buid inflation absolutely robbed Americans of their buying power 1891 01:40:38,760 --> 01:40:41,680 Speaker 6: in the last administration, where you had inflation unseen in 1892 01:40:41,960 --> 01:40:45,040 Speaker 6: you know, five decades. So and on top of that, 1893 01:40:45,160 --> 01:40:48,360 Speaker 6: Brian too, you have wages out pacing that. I think 1894 01:40:48,439 --> 01:40:51,920 Speaker 6: wages are up fourteen hundred dollars for the average private 1895 01:40:52,000 --> 01:40:55,880 Speaker 6: sector worker. Now, you know, the question is, especially going 1896 01:40:55,920 --> 01:41:00,559 Speaker 6: into midterms, are people feeling it? And I think especially 1897 01:41:00,640 --> 01:41:03,680 Speaker 6: after Biden, I guess you know, according to the White House, 1898 01:41:03,720 --> 01:41:06,479 Speaker 6: their number is a three thousand dollars wage loss. So 1899 01:41:06,600 --> 01:41:09,640 Speaker 6: in his first year, Trump has recouped apparently half of that, 1900 01:41:10,880 --> 01:41:14,040 Speaker 6: you know, according to these economic numbers. So it's still 1901 01:41:14,160 --> 01:41:18,200 Speaker 6: things aren't as good as they were probably five years ago, 1902 01:41:18,320 --> 01:41:20,439 Speaker 6: but they're certainly better than they were a couple of 1903 01:41:20,560 --> 01:41:23,000 Speaker 6: years ago. And people are starting to get their buying 1904 01:41:23,080 --> 01:41:24,320 Speaker 6: power back under the president. 1905 01:41:24,479 --> 01:41:26,439 Speaker 1: Well, you know, a lot of people struggle with connecting 1906 01:41:26,560 --> 01:41:29,760 Speaker 1: inflation with policies of prior presidents. We always tend to 1907 01:41:29,800 --> 01:41:32,080 Speaker 1: blame the person in office for anything that's going on. 1908 01:41:32,240 --> 01:41:36,480 Speaker 1: But insofar as inflation is concerned, you can't infuse trillions 1909 01:41:36,520 --> 01:41:39,439 Speaker 1: of dollars into economy under an inflation reduction Act and 1910 01:41:39,560 --> 01:41:42,320 Speaker 1: think the power of the buying power of the dollar 1911 01:41:42,400 --> 01:41:43,880 Speaker 1: is not going to be impacted by it. I mean, 1912 01:41:43,880 --> 01:41:46,400 Speaker 1: he's so bloody obvious. But that goes back to my 1913 01:41:46,479 --> 01:41:49,360 Speaker 1: point on fraud. The Inflation Reducting Act and Reduction Act 1914 01:41:49,479 --> 01:41:52,080 Speaker 1: is one of the vehicles by which so many people 1915 01:41:52,200 --> 01:41:52,960 Speaker 1: committed fraud. 1916 01:41:54,560 --> 01:42:01,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, the Inflation Reduction Act. All these spending packages too, Yeah, absolutely, 1917 01:42:01,640 --> 01:42:05,080 Speaker 6: these these COVID plans and whatnot that came out afterwards, 1918 01:42:05,880 --> 01:42:08,880 Speaker 6: you know, the Great American Rescue Plan, right, all all 1919 01:42:08,960 --> 01:42:12,559 Speaker 6: of these different you know where Democrats just approved trillions 1920 01:42:12,600 --> 01:42:14,960 Speaker 6: and trillions and trillions of dollars. They're spending like drunken 1921 01:42:15,040 --> 01:42:17,680 Speaker 6: sailors and I and you know, on top of that, 1922 01:42:17,760 --> 01:42:19,840 Speaker 6: you have the fraud, like you said, and I think, 1923 01:42:20,240 --> 01:42:22,840 Speaker 6: you know, you're kind of we're kind of reeling things back. 1924 01:42:23,600 --> 01:42:27,120 Speaker 6: You also had look the migrants that were taking advantage 1925 01:42:27,160 --> 01:42:31,240 Speaker 6: of these programs too, right, whether it was taxpayer, taxpayer 1926 01:42:31,320 --> 01:42:34,160 Speaker 6: fund and healthcare going to illegal aliens that were in 1927 01:42:34,280 --> 01:42:38,280 Speaker 6: this country. The President has sealed the border. He's gotten 1928 01:42:38,320 --> 01:42:41,200 Speaker 6: two point five million illegal aliens out of the country 1929 01:42:41,439 --> 01:42:44,360 Speaker 6: at of January, and that was through either you know, 1930 01:42:44,640 --> 01:42:49,040 Speaker 6: deportations by the government or through self deportations through you know, 1931 01:42:49,120 --> 01:42:52,920 Speaker 6: the deportation program that DHS has going on. So I 1932 01:42:53,280 --> 01:42:55,240 Speaker 6: think too, you're probably going to see a lot of 1933 01:42:55,360 --> 01:42:58,320 Speaker 6: touting from the President on the border and the economic 1934 01:42:58,400 --> 01:43:00,880 Speaker 6: effects of that. I know, rent price have gone down. 1935 01:43:01,479 --> 01:43:05,080 Speaker 6: What blows my mind, Brian, especially on this front, the 1936 01:43:05,160 --> 01:43:08,400 Speaker 6: rent crisis. I live in this building in d C. 1937 01:43:09,200 --> 01:43:12,320 Speaker 6: And you know, rent's been high, right I moved here 1938 01:43:12,400 --> 01:43:15,240 Speaker 6: under Biden, the height of Biden, and I'm moving to 1939 01:43:15,320 --> 01:43:18,920 Speaker 6: a nicer unit in my building, you know, three years 1940 01:43:19,000 --> 01:43:21,280 Speaker 6: down the line here after I got to d C, 1941 01:43:21,479 --> 01:43:23,680 Speaker 6: and the rent's going to be two hundred dollars less 1942 01:43:23,800 --> 01:43:27,960 Speaker 6: than what I've been paying. So, I mean, I think 1943 01:43:28,400 --> 01:43:32,160 Speaker 6: I certainly see the effects of this. I think other Americans, 1944 01:43:32,680 --> 01:43:36,600 Speaker 6: you know, it's you know where they assign you know, 1945 01:43:36,680 --> 01:43:40,559 Speaker 6: the outcome of that too, whether it's President Trump or whatever. 1946 01:43:40,640 --> 01:43:42,759 Speaker 6: I mean, that remains to be seen. But I certainly 1947 01:43:42,800 --> 01:43:45,320 Speaker 6: see some of the effects of this well, and as. 1948 01:43:45,280 --> 01:43:47,880 Speaker 1: Do most Americans. I think they appreciate that. But let 1949 01:43:47,920 --> 01:43:50,320 Speaker 1: me ask you this, because one of the other issues 1950 01:43:50,360 --> 01:43:52,519 Speaker 1: that's floating around out there, and something that the American 1951 01:43:52,560 --> 01:43:55,200 Speaker 1: people are overwhelmingly in favor of and that no one 1952 01:43:55,320 --> 01:43:57,320 Speaker 1: seems to really have a problem with in their day 1953 01:43:57,360 --> 01:43:59,519 Speaker 1: to day life, that's a photo i'd to vote. We're 1954 01:43:59,520 --> 01:44:01,760 Speaker 1: the only devil country in the world that doesn't require that. 1955 01:44:01,960 --> 01:44:04,800 Speaker 1: Eighty percent, roughly of the American people surveyed say no 1956 01:44:04,960 --> 01:44:08,040 Speaker 1: problem at all, and that's great with me. Do you 1957 01:44:08,120 --> 01:44:10,559 Speaker 1: think that Donald Trump will bring up the Save Act? 1958 01:44:10,600 --> 01:44:13,280 Speaker 1: And we'll let me just tell my listeners. Beyond calling 1959 01:44:13,320 --> 01:44:16,120 Speaker 1: Bernie Marino and other elected officials from Ohio, I think 1960 01:44:16,160 --> 01:44:18,800 Speaker 1: we need to light the phones up at Mitch McConnell's office. 1961 01:44:18,840 --> 01:44:21,120 Speaker 1: Thank you, Drew pappas he reminded me of the Mitch 1962 01:44:21,200 --> 01:44:23,599 Speaker 1: McConnell's blocking the Save Act from even getting a vote. 1963 01:44:23,640 --> 01:44:25,760 Speaker 1: Why in the hell would Mitch McConnell stand in the 1964 01:44:25,840 --> 01:44:28,240 Speaker 1: way of something so many people want. But do you think, 1965 01:44:28,320 --> 01:44:30,479 Speaker 1: to the larger point, that Donald Trump will bring that 1966 01:44:30,560 --> 01:44:31,519 Speaker 1: up tonight during the address? 1967 01:44:32,520 --> 01:44:32,720 Speaker 7: Yeah? 1968 01:44:32,800 --> 01:44:35,200 Speaker 6: I think President Trump certainly will bring that up tonight, 1969 01:44:35,320 --> 01:44:38,920 Speaker 6: especially where he has you know, both chambers of Congress there, 1970 01:44:39,040 --> 01:44:42,640 Speaker 6: and we'll see if the Democrats show up. And I 1971 01:44:42,720 --> 01:44:47,320 Speaker 6: think Mitch mcconnald's just a quintessential establishment Republican just opposing Trump, 1972 01:44:48,320 --> 01:44:51,280 Speaker 6: you know, he's he's opposed Trump on a lot of things. 1973 01:44:51,360 --> 01:44:53,760 Speaker 6: Of course, he did try and get get some things 1974 01:44:53,800 --> 01:44:55,400 Speaker 6: done there for the president of the first term, but 1975 01:44:55,520 --> 01:44:58,679 Speaker 6: he's an ever Trumper in my book. And of course 1976 01:44:58,720 --> 01:45:01,160 Speaker 6: I think there might be some you know, sour grapes 1977 01:45:01,200 --> 01:45:05,280 Speaker 6: over the you know, Republican Senate primary going on in 1978 01:45:05,400 --> 01:45:07,719 Speaker 6: Kentucky to replace Mitch McConnell. 1979 01:45:07,840 --> 01:45:11,920 Speaker 1: Well, mit mean, come on, do your job. You reflect 1980 01:45:11,960 --> 01:45:14,400 Speaker 1: the will of the American people. And I guarantee, as 1981 01:45:14,479 --> 01:45:16,560 Speaker 1: sure as I'm sitting here, as read as Kentucky is 1982 01:45:17,040 --> 01:45:18,720 Speaker 1: probably every man woman in shot on the state of 1983 01:45:18,800 --> 01:45:21,160 Speaker 1: Kentucky is all in favor of the Save Act. So Mitch, 1984 01:45:21,240 --> 01:45:23,599 Speaker 1: you know, represent your own people and the American people 1985 01:45:23,680 --> 01:45:25,080 Speaker 1: do something right for a change. 1986 01:45:26,280 --> 01:45:28,519 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, that's where the disconnect is, right, Brian. 1987 01:45:28,640 --> 01:45:31,439 Speaker 6: And then I think I think there's seventy one percent 1988 01:45:31,920 --> 01:45:34,360 Speaker 6: of Democrats in one of the latest polls I saw 1989 01:45:35,080 --> 01:45:37,960 Speaker 6: support to say that I know. So this is like 1990 01:45:38,200 --> 01:45:40,679 Speaker 6: the and like you said, eighty percent of all Americans. 1991 01:45:40,720 --> 01:45:43,680 Speaker 6: So it's amazing to me that this is such a 1992 01:45:43,760 --> 01:45:48,360 Speaker 6: bipartisan issue among the electorate. And you know that Democrats 1993 01:45:48,400 --> 01:45:50,439 Speaker 6: don't want to play ball. Mitch McConnell doesn't want to 1994 01:45:50,479 --> 01:45:54,200 Speaker 6: play ball on this, And I think it's something, you know, 1995 01:45:54,360 --> 01:45:57,480 Speaker 6: I think this is something that would absolutely safeguard our elections, 1996 01:45:57,680 --> 01:46:00,840 Speaker 6: ensure that only United States cities with the right to 1997 01:46:01,000 --> 01:46:06,240 Speaker 6: vote can actually vote. And yeah, I think the American 1998 01:46:06,280 --> 01:46:08,880 Speaker 6: people want it. I think it'd be something very It's 1999 01:46:09,280 --> 01:46:11,680 Speaker 6: not a difficult thing to do, right, I think I 2000 01:46:12,040 --> 01:46:15,719 Speaker 6: think it's just passing legislation through both houses and getting 2001 01:46:15,760 --> 01:46:18,840 Speaker 6: it to the President's desk. So and of course Democrats, 2002 01:46:19,560 --> 01:46:22,920 Speaker 6: you know, and McConnell and whatnot want to wake this out, 2003 01:46:23,120 --> 01:46:25,800 Speaker 6: want to try and ride this out to mid terms 2004 01:46:25,880 --> 01:46:29,120 Speaker 6: that they want, you know, Democrats to take the House 2005 01:46:29,240 --> 01:46:31,600 Speaker 6: or maybe the Senate too. Is I'm sure you know, 2006 01:46:31,720 --> 01:46:35,080 Speaker 6: that's the end game goal here, so they can you know, 2007 01:46:35,280 --> 01:46:37,000 Speaker 6: kind of put this to bed and not not have 2008 01:46:37,120 --> 01:46:39,320 Speaker 6: to worry about it for the rest of the administration. 2009 01:46:39,479 --> 01:46:42,840 Speaker 6: But it's important that the president goes out there tonight 2010 01:46:42,960 --> 01:46:45,280 Speaker 6: every camera in the world. Every news station in the 2011 01:46:45,360 --> 01:46:48,040 Speaker 6: world is going to be running the speech, and I 2012 01:46:48,080 --> 01:46:50,360 Speaker 6: think he has a great platform to go out and 2013 01:46:50,479 --> 01:46:52,600 Speaker 6: make the case for the Save Act this evening. 2014 01:46:52,560 --> 01:46:55,000 Speaker 1: The Save Act. And also he can, I think, even 2015 01:46:55,080 --> 01:46:58,840 Speaker 1: gloat on energy policies. We're all experiencing some wonderfully low 2016 01:46:59,160 --> 01:47:02,000 Speaker 1: gasoline prices, with the exception of Gavin Newsance California for 2017 01:47:02,040 --> 01:47:06,320 Speaker 1: obvious reasons. Nick white House, correspondent from Breitbart Nick gilbertson, 2018 01:47:06,360 --> 01:47:08,280 Speaker 1: do you think we have finally seen the end of 2019 01:47:08,360 --> 01:47:10,880 Speaker 1: the climate religion? That plant food is not bad for 2020 01:47:10,960 --> 01:47:13,519 Speaker 1: the atmosphere? And I would like to pivot over pointing 2021 01:47:13,560 --> 01:47:16,799 Speaker 1: out that even Democrats have to concede that artificial intelligence 2022 01:47:16,880 --> 01:47:18,640 Speaker 1: is the wave of the future, and that windmills and 2023 01:47:18,720 --> 01:47:21,360 Speaker 1: solar panels will not pride the power that we need. 2024 01:47:21,640 --> 01:47:24,160 Speaker 1: It won't even provide the power for a growing American population. 2025 01:47:25,520 --> 01:47:27,960 Speaker 1: I think you can gloat all day long on energy 2026 01:47:28,000 --> 01:47:30,200 Speaker 1: policy and the expansion of it, and how about small 2027 01:47:30,280 --> 01:47:32,080 Speaker 1: modular reactors that throw in there as well. 2028 01:47:33,240 --> 01:47:35,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think energy policy is something that kind of 2029 01:47:36,000 --> 01:47:38,959 Speaker 6: gets overlooked, but it's such a huge part of the economy, 2030 01:47:38,960 --> 01:47:41,400 Speaker 6: and it's something that touches every single one of our lives. 2031 01:47:42,040 --> 01:47:42,200 Speaker 4: You know. 2032 01:47:42,360 --> 01:47:45,200 Speaker 6: Gasoline is a more kind of in your face example 2033 01:47:45,240 --> 01:47:48,600 Speaker 6: when you see the gas prices every day and you 2034 01:47:48,680 --> 01:47:50,559 Speaker 6: know every week you got to fill up your tank, 2035 01:47:50,600 --> 01:47:53,400 Speaker 6: and you go, oh, yeah, look they're down two dollars 2036 01:47:53,439 --> 01:47:56,320 Speaker 6: since Joe Biden was president, right, like, you know, these 2037 01:47:56,400 --> 01:48:00,560 Speaker 6: policies are doing good and then are good for Americans. 2038 01:48:00,640 --> 01:48:03,320 Speaker 6: And then on top of that, you know, the price 2039 01:48:03,400 --> 01:48:05,840 Speaker 6: you don't see every day is at every good on 2040 01:48:06,240 --> 01:48:08,840 Speaker 6: the shelf that you go to in the store was 2041 01:48:08,920 --> 01:48:11,920 Speaker 6: transported there, and there's a cost in the good of 2042 01:48:12,560 --> 01:48:15,160 Speaker 6: you know, the the energy that went into making it, 2043 01:48:15,640 --> 01:48:18,000 Speaker 6: getting it to the store, putting it on the shelf, 2044 01:48:18,479 --> 01:48:22,639 Speaker 6: you know. So and I think, you know, a big 2045 01:48:22,720 --> 01:48:25,880 Speaker 6: part of the slow inflation inflation here over the past 2046 01:48:26,000 --> 01:48:29,920 Speaker 6: year has been the energy policies of the Sump administration 2047 01:48:30,240 --> 01:48:34,600 Speaker 6: and kind of and kind of unleashing you know, the 2048 01:48:34,760 --> 01:48:38,679 Speaker 6: rains here that Democrats and the Biden administration had put 2049 01:48:39,040 --> 01:48:42,240 Speaker 6: on all these you know, energy companies, whether you know 2050 01:48:42,320 --> 01:48:45,160 Speaker 6: it's oil, natural gas. And I think too, you know, 2051 01:48:45,920 --> 01:48:49,120 Speaker 6: like the President has I believe it was nine point 2052 01:48:49,200 --> 01:48:52,080 Speaker 6: two trillion dollars in investments in the United States since 2053 01:48:52,120 --> 01:48:54,400 Speaker 6: he's returned to office. Those are tangible ones at the 2054 01:48:54,439 --> 01:48:57,240 Speaker 6: White House list, I know, the presidents of eighteen trillion. 2055 01:48:58,439 --> 01:49:01,360 Speaker 6: But that's a main only a direct result of a 2056 01:49:01,479 --> 01:49:05,519 Speaker 6: lot of you know, these this AI investment and a 2057 01:49:05,600 --> 01:49:08,479 Speaker 6: lot of these companies. You know, you need the energy 2058 01:49:08,720 --> 01:49:12,240 Speaker 6: right to to make this AI and electricity work. You 2059 01:49:12,920 --> 01:49:14,680 Speaker 6: need all this stuff. So a lot of that is 2060 01:49:14,800 --> 01:49:18,920 Speaker 6: investment in with ways to manufacture energy to make sure 2061 01:49:19,000 --> 01:49:21,760 Speaker 6: these AI plants, you know, get up and running. So 2062 01:49:21,960 --> 01:49:25,160 Speaker 6: and another point about the economy, I think people are 2063 01:49:25,240 --> 01:49:28,320 Speaker 6: going to see a massive boom here, you know, over 2064 01:49:28,360 --> 01:49:31,439 Speaker 6: the next couple of years, is things get underway. You know, 2065 01:49:31,520 --> 01:49:34,320 Speaker 6: the President often talks about, you know, when will we 2066 01:49:34,439 --> 01:49:37,479 Speaker 6: see it right? Reporters reporters send to ask him, and 2067 01:49:37,640 --> 01:49:40,519 Speaker 6: he's like, well, look, you're seeing the construction jobs right now. 2068 01:49:40,920 --> 01:49:43,759 Speaker 6: They're putting the infrastructure in place for all this stuff. 2069 01:49:43,800 --> 01:49:46,200 Speaker 6: And then you know, when you get beyond that and 2070 01:49:46,320 --> 01:49:49,160 Speaker 6: you have uh, you know, the facilities up and running, 2071 01:49:49,200 --> 01:49:51,080 Speaker 6: then you have all these jobs for Americans. You're going 2072 01:49:51,160 --> 01:49:53,559 Speaker 6: to see energy prices cheap and even more. 2073 01:49:53,640 --> 01:49:54,880 Speaker 1: I think so. 2074 01:49:55,680 --> 01:49:57,600 Speaker 6: And of course this is all has to do with 2075 01:49:57,640 --> 01:49:59,040 Speaker 6: the AI race, with China as. 2076 01:49:58,880 --> 01:50:00,600 Speaker 1: Well, no doubt about it. Well, and you know I 2077 01:50:00,680 --> 01:50:03,519 Speaker 1: got to mention cheaper entered, cheaper gasoline and diesel prices. 2078 01:50:03,560 --> 01:50:05,640 Speaker 1: That means the cheaper to ship the windmill parts to 2079 01:50:05,720 --> 01:50:08,479 Speaker 1: wherever you're building it. Real quick, fory Park. Counting Nick 2080 01:50:08,479 --> 01:50:10,680 Speaker 1: Gilberts and he's the White House correspondent of Brightbart, you'll 2081 01:50:10,680 --> 01:50:12,519 Speaker 1: be able to read what Nick Nick's assessment of the 2082 01:50:12,760 --> 01:50:15,000 Speaker 1: state of the Union address is probably tomorrow and Breitbart. 2083 01:50:15,560 --> 01:50:18,439 Speaker 1: I just noticed one other great piece of information. Positive 2084 01:50:18,960 --> 01:50:22,000 Speaker 1: mortgage rates just drop below six percent yesterday average rate 2085 01:50:22,080 --> 01:50:24,200 Speaker 1: on the popular thirty year fix now five point nine 2086 01:50:24,200 --> 01:50:26,400 Speaker 1: to nine percent average. It's going in the right direction. 2087 01:50:26,560 --> 01:50:28,960 Speaker 1: Something else is going to be welsome relief to the 2088 01:50:29,080 --> 01:50:30,280 Speaker 1: would be homeowner. Nick. 2089 01:50:31,400 --> 01:50:33,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, absolutely, I think that. You know, that's another thing 2090 01:50:33,880 --> 01:50:37,479 Speaker 6: the President's going to cut, right, you know, lowering mortgage rates. 2091 01:50:37,840 --> 01:50:40,080 Speaker 6: I know how difficult it is for a lot of 2092 01:50:40,840 --> 01:50:44,080 Speaker 6: you know, especially Americans and their thirties and forties are 2093 01:50:44,360 --> 01:50:46,920 Speaker 6: looking to get their their first house here and start 2094 01:50:46,960 --> 01:50:50,519 Speaker 6: a family and stuff. And when you can, you know, 2095 01:50:50,680 --> 01:50:54,120 Speaker 6: reduce the costs of mortgage, reduce the costs to get 2096 01:50:54,520 --> 01:50:57,680 Speaker 6: to get in the door and have a home that 2097 01:50:58,000 --> 01:51:02,479 Speaker 6: that perpetuates, you know, Foster's a kind of atmosphere where 2098 01:51:02,600 --> 01:51:06,320 Speaker 6: people can pursue the American dream, have families, all that stuff. 2099 01:51:06,360 --> 01:51:09,000 Speaker 1: So I hope they do have families.

I'm actually cautiously optimistic that the President 2124 01:52:14,360 --> 01:52:17,120 Speaker 1: Scheinbaum is going to get their act together and they're 2125 01:52:17,120 --> 01:52:19,000 Speaker 1: finally going to do something about the state of corruption 2126 01:52:19,160 --> 01:52:21,280 Speaker 1: in their country, maybe for the benefit of the entire 2127 01:52:21,360 --> 01:52:24,800 Speaker 1: Mexican population, but most notably the spillover benefit we're going 2128 01:52:24,880 --> 01:52:27,360 Speaker 1: to enjoy. Obviously, Donald Trump had been threatening to send 2129 01:52:27,400 --> 01:52:29,960 Speaker 1: in American military forces to deal with the cartel problems 2130 01:52:30,000 --> 01:52:32,600 Speaker 1: in Mexico, something that I'm not holding my hand up 2131 01:52:32,640 --> 01:52:35,280 Speaker 1: in favor of Daniel Davis. It's their country, let them 2132 01:52:35,320 --> 01:52:37,479 Speaker 1: figure it out. But I've been witnessing for the past 2133 01:52:37,560 --> 01:52:40,360 Speaker 1: several decades the level of corruption in Mexico. You get 2134 01:52:40,400 --> 01:52:44,639 Speaker 1: a reform candidate runs for office, judicial prosecutorial elected capacity 2135 01:52:44,720 --> 01:52:48,840 Speaker 1: in something, somebody kills them. Oh, the cartel they have 2136 01:52:49,000 --> 01:52:52,400 Speaker 1: infiltrated virtually every area of government. It is colossally corrupt, 2137 01:52:52,439 --> 01:52:54,559 Speaker 1: and the only way to stop them is, I guess, 2138 01:52:54,640 --> 01:52:57,360 Speaker 1: to start killing the elementos of the world and maybe 2139 01:52:57,560 --> 01:53:01,360 Speaker 1: take some stock in themselves. See this as a positive development, 2140 01:53:01,439 --> 01:53:03,840 Speaker 1: Daniel Davis, Do you think I'm overly optimistic, Sir? 2141 01:53:05,160 --> 01:53:07,800 Speaker 10: I wouldn't be optimistic at the outcome just yet. 2142 01:53:08,160 --> 01:53:10,840 Speaker 9: I am optimistic that at least they're trying, right, because 2143 01:53:11,360 --> 01:53:13,559 Speaker 9: in the absence of even starting something like this, then 2144 01:53:13,840 --> 01:53:16,880 Speaker 9: you literally just surrender to these folks. And I've actually 2145 01:53:16,920 --> 01:53:19,639 Speaker 9: been doing just some research here to remind my own 2146 01:53:19,680 --> 01:53:22,000 Speaker 9: self about some of the recent history. I'm talking like 2147 01:53:22,080 --> 01:53:25,840 Speaker 9: the last several decades, and it is just bloody for 2148 01:53:26,040 --> 01:53:28,040 Speaker 9: all those who have tried, and I mean at every level. 2149 01:53:28,080 --> 01:53:29,880 Speaker 9: It's not just at the top, but it's all the 2150 01:53:29,920 --> 01:53:34,479 Speaker 9: ones in between. And these guys are absolutely bloodthirsty and 2151 01:53:34,920 --> 01:53:41,639 Speaker 9: ruthless in their attacks, killing family members, friends, obviously, competitors, etc. 2152 01:53:41,840 --> 01:53:45,639 Speaker 9: And definitely members of the military, slash police, and the government. 2153 01:53:45,800 --> 01:53:48,200 Speaker 9: And it is no joke to take these on. And 2154 01:53:48,240 --> 01:53:51,120 Speaker 9: when somebody like Shinbaum takes us on, they know for 2155 01:53:51,280 --> 01:53:53,439 Speaker 9: sure that they are putting their lives in their hands 2156 01:53:53,520 --> 01:53:56,519 Speaker 9: and that they could go down. But man, and you 2157 01:53:56,600 --> 01:53:59,840 Speaker 9: saw the results Here's that was a pretty strong signal 2158 01:53:59,880 --> 01:54:02,360 Speaker 9: that this is not going to be cheap, easy or quick. 2159 01:54:03,120 --> 01:54:05,640 Speaker 9: So I think that it's going to be just like 2160 01:54:05,760 --> 01:54:07,599 Speaker 9: so many of these things are at nearly any level, 2161 01:54:07,800 --> 01:54:10,280 Speaker 9: it's a contest of wills. Who is going to press 2162 01:54:10,400 --> 01:54:12,719 Speaker 9: the hardest, who is going to take the casualties, because 2163 01:54:12,800 --> 01:54:14,800 Speaker 9: both sides are going to suffer some. I mean, the 2164 01:54:14,840 --> 01:54:17,120 Speaker 9: police took a big beating here in this first one here, 2165 01:54:17,120 --> 01:54:19,920 Speaker 9: I think like twenty five policemen were killed, and a 2166 01:54:20,000 --> 01:54:21,920 Speaker 9: bunch on the other side too, So it's it's going 2167 01:54:22,000 --> 01:54:24,519 Speaker 9: to be a matter of wills and hopefully they're prepared 2168 01:54:24,600 --> 01:54:26,759 Speaker 9: for that before they started, and this will. 2169 01:54:26,640 --> 01:54:28,960 Speaker 10: Just continue on and God help us all if it 2170 01:54:29,040 --> 01:54:29,679 Speaker 10: doesn't succeed. 2171 01:54:29,800 --> 01:54:32,600 Speaker 9: But if it does, then I am I would be 2172 01:54:32,840 --> 01:54:35,320 Speaker 9: very optimistic, and I'm hopeful that they can get there 2173 01:54:35,440 --> 01:54:37,800 Speaker 9: for the sake not just of the drugs that were 2174 01:54:37,800 --> 01:54:39,760 Speaker 9: coming in with the United States, but for the people 2175 01:54:39,800 --> 01:54:40,360 Speaker 9: of Mexico. 2176 01:54:40,560 --> 01:54:42,840 Speaker 1: That's my yeah, that's my broader point. Listen, I don't 2177 01:54:42,880 --> 01:54:46,240 Speaker 1: do drugs. I don't care. I mean, if we supply 2178 01:54:46,400 --> 01:54:48,640 Speaker 1: that market, it is our own fault that there is 2179 01:54:48,760 --> 01:54:50,960 Speaker 1: a market here in America. Okay, let's little little moment 2180 01:54:51,000 --> 01:54:52,760 Speaker 1: of self reflection on that bike. Yeah, we want to 2181 01:54:52,760 --> 01:54:56,919 Speaker 1: be a lot more broadly, such potential the country of Mexico. 2182 01:54:57,280 --> 01:54:59,960 Speaker 1: I mean, they do manufacturing, they have business and industry, 2183 01:55:00,040 --> 01:55:01,640 Speaker 1: and if they just got rid of the damn drugs 2184 01:55:01,680 --> 01:55:03,920 Speaker 1: and the cartel's influence and all the corruption. You can 2185 01:55:04,040 --> 01:55:06,600 Speaker 1: only imagine the level of corruption in terms of money 2186 01:55:06,720 --> 01:55:09,200 Speaker 1: flowing back and forth, it will be so much better 2187 01:55:09,240 --> 01:55:11,720 Speaker 1: for the Mexican people, which of course would certainly spill 2188 01:55:11,840 --> 01:55:14,680 Speaker 1: over to our economic advantage. It's good for everybody to 2189 01:55:14,720 --> 01:55:17,760 Speaker 1: get rid of these clowns, it really is. It's just 2190 01:55:17,840 --> 01:55:18,360 Speaker 1: that it's so. 2191 01:55:18,640 --> 01:55:22,480 Speaker 9: Bloody hard because there is so much money involved in 2192 01:55:22,560 --> 01:55:24,040 Speaker 9: when you have that kind of cash. I mean, we 2193 01:55:24,600 --> 01:55:28,000 Speaker 9: saw when Pablo Escobar was taken down, when you know 2194 01:55:28,120 --> 01:55:31,160 Speaker 9: several of these others in areas like Menuel Norieg etcetera. 2195 01:55:31,160 --> 01:55:33,720 Speaker 9: When they guys, when these guys go down, there's always 2196 01:55:33,880 --> 01:55:35,920 Speaker 9: people ready to take their place because there's just so 2197 01:55:36,040 --> 01:55:38,600 Speaker 9: much money. And that's why this is such a hard, 2198 01:55:38,680 --> 01:55:41,200 Speaker 9: thorny issue. It's not just taking down this cartel or 2199 01:55:41,240 --> 01:55:43,360 Speaker 9: that one, but you've got to be able to just 2200 01:55:43,480 --> 01:55:46,520 Speaker 9: sustain this over time. It's a generational fight, and I 2201 01:55:46,560 --> 01:55:47,680 Speaker 9: hope Mexico's up for it. 2202 01:55:47,880 --> 01:55:50,360 Speaker 1: Well, it's been in generations going on that it's been 2203 01:55:50,560 --> 01:55:53,640 Speaker 1: established as a corrupt regime because of the cartel's infiltration. 2204 01:55:53,840 --> 01:55:55,840 Speaker 1: They've allowed it to go by, and the cartel has 2205 01:55:55,880 --> 01:55:59,800 Speaker 1: been wildly successful with their terrorist tactics, keeping responsible people 2206 01:55:59,800 --> 01:56:02,840 Speaker 1: from office and bringing about reform. AM I understanding it's 2207 01:56:02,840 --> 01:56:06,840 Speaker 1: widely reported that American intelligence is helping the Mexican government 2208 01:56:06,880 --> 01:56:10,640 Speaker 1: in their efforts. Welcome help. I imagine that Scheinbaum has 2209 01:56:10,680 --> 01:56:14,200 Speaker 1: no problem utilizing our intelligence resources, not our military ones, 2210 01:56:14,240 --> 01:56:16,520 Speaker 1: but our intelligence resources to find out where these guys are. 2211 01:56:16,960 --> 01:56:18,640 Speaker 1: I mean, it took quite a bit of intelligence to 2212 01:56:18,640 --> 01:56:20,600 Speaker 1: figure out, well how Chapo was or whatever that guy's 2213 01:56:20,680 --> 01:56:21,600 Speaker 1: name was, the late. 2214 01:56:27,160 --> 01:56:30,400 Speaker 10: You there, Yeah, Oh sorry, I thought you were continue on. 2215 01:56:30,880 --> 01:56:32,720 Speaker 9: Yeah, And I'll tell you that's That's one of the 2216 01:56:32,800 --> 01:56:36,280 Speaker 9: things that's that's uh, that's hopeful is when when President 2217 01:56:36,320 --> 01:56:38,520 Speaker 9: Trump was talking about unilaterally going in and doing what 2218 01:56:38,640 --> 01:56:41,040 Speaker 9: we want, that would have been a big mistake and 2219 01:56:41,200 --> 01:56:44,640 Speaker 9: just awful, but going in at the cooperation with the 2220 01:56:44,720 --> 01:56:47,400 Speaker 9: Mexican government, that's actually a good thing. And if they 2221 01:56:47,560 --> 01:56:49,120 Speaker 9: asked for this and we gave it to them and 2222 01:56:49,200 --> 01:56:51,760 Speaker 9: it was successful, and it was core coordinated and it 2223 01:56:51,840 --> 01:56:54,160 Speaker 9: was mutually beneficial, that is a good thing and that 2224 01:56:54,320 --> 01:56:55,160 Speaker 9: I hope continues. 2225 01:56:55,360 --> 01:56:58,160 Speaker 1: I do too, all right, pivoting over again year five 2226 01:56:58,360 --> 01:57:02,320 Speaker 1: for the war between Russia and Ukraine, and I've mentioned 2227 01:57:02,360 --> 01:57:04,320 Speaker 1: the fog of war, and now you've heard that comment before. 2228 01:57:04,360 --> 01:57:07,120 Speaker 1: We've talked about casualties on this program before. No one 2229 01:57:07,200 --> 01:57:09,520 Speaker 1: has a real way of knowing. I suppose Wall Street 2230 01:57:09,600 --> 01:57:11,800 Speaker 1: journal side is statistics from the Center for Strategic and 2231 01:57:11,880 --> 01:57:15,000 Speaker 1: Intelligent Studies. They reference it as nonpartisan, and I'm sure 2232 01:57:15,000 --> 01:57:17,360 Speaker 1: you're familiar with it. But Russia had three hundred and 2233 01:57:17,400 --> 01:57:21,480 Speaker 1: twenty five thousand fatalities and one point two million casualties 2234 01:57:21,560 --> 01:57:25,120 Speaker 1: to Ukraine's one hundred and forty thousand fatalities and six 2235 01:57:25,280 --> 01:57:30,160 Speaker 1: hundred thousand casualties. The level of devastation and bloodshed. I 2236 01:57:30,320 --> 01:57:32,360 Speaker 1: just read those and I was overwhelmed by that. When 2237 01:57:32,400 --> 01:57:34,520 Speaker 1: you see it in those stark numbers, it's just so 2238 01:57:34,680 --> 01:57:38,360 Speaker 1: sad and tragic, leading me to, well, where are we today? 2239 01:57:38,480 --> 01:57:39,280 Speaker 1: Daniel Davis. 2240 01:57:40,560 --> 01:57:44,520 Speaker 9: You know, I've heard a figure that I personally think 2241 01:57:44,640 --> 01:57:47,040 Speaker 9: is more plausible on the Russian side of about one 2242 01:57:47,160 --> 01:57:50,600 Speaker 9: hundred and fifty thousand fatalities and about triple that number 2243 01:57:50,640 --> 01:57:53,840 Speaker 9: of wounded, And that seems reasonable given the concept are 2244 01:57:54,160 --> 01:57:56,200 Speaker 9: the top of combat operations in the amount of time. 2245 01:57:56,800 --> 01:57:59,160 Speaker 9: But I don't at all believe those numbers on the 2246 01:57:59,240 --> 01:58:02,480 Speaker 9: Ukraine side. They don't seem reasonable or plausible at all. 2247 01:58:02,800 --> 01:58:05,040 Speaker 9: That the side that it has somewhere between you three 2248 01:58:05,120 --> 01:58:08,440 Speaker 9: to five to ten times disadvantage in firepower is somehow 2249 01:58:08,520 --> 01:58:11,080 Speaker 9: going to suffer half the casualties or less than the 2250 01:58:11,120 --> 01:58:11,800 Speaker 9: other side just. 2251 01:58:11,920 --> 01:58:13,160 Speaker 10: Doesn't make any sense to me at all. 2252 01:58:13,200 --> 01:58:15,800 Speaker 9: I think the more plausible number I've seen is somewhere 2253 01:58:15,800 --> 01:58:19,760 Speaker 9: around eight to nine hundred thousand dead on the Ukraine side, 2254 01:58:19,840 --> 01:58:22,360 Speaker 9: and that is logical based on the amount of firepower, 2255 01:58:23,120 --> 01:58:25,640 Speaker 9: how this war has gone, especially in the last eighteen months. 2256 01:58:26,520 --> 01:58:27,920 Speaker 10: I think we need to be sober that the. 2257 01:58:28,200 --> 01:58:31,520 Speaker 9: Losses on the Ukraine side are astronomical and staggering, and 2258 01:58:31,560 --> 01:58:34,040 Speaker 9: they're keeping that hidden. And I can't speak to this 2259 01:58:34,360 --> 01:58:36,560 Speaker 9: organization here that put these numbers out. I can just 2260 01:58:36,600 --> 01:58:38,600 Speaker 9: tell you that doesn't seem logical to me based on 2261 01:58:38,720 --> 01:58:39,880 Speaker 9: what we see on the ground. 2262 01:58:39,800 --> 01:58:41,720 Speaker 1: Well, and given the loss of life, I mean, and 2263 01:58:41,840 --> 01:58:43,560 Speaker 1: I have no reason to disagree with you, and what 2264 01:58:43,640 --> 01:58:46,240 Speaker 1: you say certainly is logical and reasonable. Again fog of war. 2265 01:58:46,320 --> 01:58:49,160 Speaker 1: You know somebody hasn't incentive report a higher number here 2266 01:58:49,200 --> 01:58:52,320 Speaker 1: or lower number there, whatever. But you know, when this 2267 01:58:52,520 --> 01:58:54,800 Speaker 1: conflict is over, and God only help us that it 2268 01:58:55,000 --> 01:58:57,520 Speaker 1: ends soon, and whatever land concessions are made, there is 2269 01:58:57,560 --> 01:58:59,640 Speaker 1: still going to be a country of Ukraine. Are they 2270 01:58:59,680 --> 01:59:01,440 Speaker 1: going to be to rebuild? I understand it's a very 2271 01:59:01,480 --> 01:59:05,200 Speaker 1: agrarian community, the bread basket of Europe, with all the 2272 01:59:05,880 --> 01:59:09,200 Speaker 1: harvesting and grain and agricultural production. Is there going to 2273 01:59:09,240 --> 01:59:10,480 Speaker 1: be anybody left to do that? 2274 01:59:10,680 --> 01:59:13,720 Speaker 9: Daniel Davis, Well, that is one of the big problems, 2275 01:59:13,720 --> 01:59:15,240 Speaker 9: and that is one of the big problems I have 2276 01:59:15,480 --> 01:59:18,560 Speaker 9: with both the Western Europeans, in particular with the Biden 2277 01:59:18,600 --> 01:59:23,400 Speaker 9: administration before and Zelenski himself, because they are not prioritizing 2278 01:59:23,480 --> 01:59:25,640 Speaker 9: the future of their country, where they could have had 2279 01:59:25,720 --> 01:59:28,760 Speaker 9: off ramps in course two months into this in April 2280 01:59:28,840 --> 01:59:31,040 Speaker 9: twenty twenty two, they could have had another off ramp 2281 01:59:31,080 --> 01:59:33,800 Speaker 9: in June twenty twenty four, and then now this one 2282 01:59:33,840 --> 01:59:36,720 Speaker 9: here goes on and every time there's an opportunity they 2283 01:59:36,840 --> 01:59:39,040 Speaker 9: reject it and say no, we're gonna keep fighting, We're 2284 01:59:39,040 --> 01:59:40,760 Speaker 9: not going to give up anything, and then they always 2285 01:59:40,840 --> 01:59:43,760 Speaker 9: lose more every time Russia offers a deal than it's 2286 01:59:43,840 --> 01:59:45,720 Speaker 9: worse the next time. And I think that worth the 2287 01:59:45,760 --> 01:59:47,440 Speaker 9: point now to where Russia is just going through the 2288 01:59:47,480 --> 01:59:50,000 Speaker 9: motions diplomatically and saying sure, it will listen to you 2289 01:59:50,080 --> 01:59:52,640 Speaker 9: and talk, but everything on the ground is continuing to 2290 01:59:52,760 --> 01:59:55,640 Speaker 9: move towards their final objective of the destruction of the 2291 01:59:55,760 --> 01:59:58,640 Speaker 9: Ukrainian armed forces. That's more important than the manpower or 2292 01:59:58,680 --> 02:00:01,879 Speaker 9: than the territorial issue. But the territorial issue is important 2293 02:00:02,000 --> 02:00:04,600 Speaker 9: insofar as the four oblust that they have, which they 2294 02:00:04,640 --> 02:00:08,200 Speaker 9: have already incorporated into their constitution. They promise the people 2295 02:00:08,200 --> 02:00:10,120 Speaker 9: they're going to come, So I think once they get 2296 02:00:10,160 --> 02:00:12,360 Speaker 9: to those then they have a chance to actually say 2297 02:00:12,400 --> 02:00:13,000 Speaker 9: we're going to stop. 2298 02:00:13,080 --> 02:00:14,240 Speaker 10: But if the other side. 2299 02:00:14,080 --> 02:00:17,520 Speaker 9: Doesn't stop fighting, even at the border of those four oblusts, 2300 02:00:17,760 --> 02:00:21,120 Speaker 9: they'll keep going and the Russians will take even more territory, 2301 02:00:21,400 --> 02:00:23,600 Speaker 9: and at some point there's just not going to be 2302 02:00:23,720 --> 02:00:26,320 Speaker 9: enough men on the Ukraine side to offer resistance, and 2303 02:00:26,360 --> 02:00:28,960 Speaker 9: there is clearly no shortage of men on the Russian side. 2304 02:00:29,360 --> 02:00:31,600 Speaker 9: It is eventually going to be a math problem and 2305 02:00:31,680 --> 02:00:32,560 Speaker 9: the Ukraine. 2306 02:00:32,280 --> 02:00:33,120 Speaker 10: Side is going to lose it. 2307 02:00:33,520 --> 02:00:36,280 Speaker 1: And without men after the war's over, who's going to 2308 02:00:36,360 --> 02:00:39,200 Speaker 1: run the country properly. It's just a sad state effects, right, 2309 02:00:39,440 --> 02:00:41,640 Speaker 1: and you know, I just have to observe again. It's 2310 02:00:41,680 --> 02:00:44,200 Speaker 1: kind of like I said every week Daniel Davis Washern's repeat. 2311 02:00:44,200 --> 02:00:45,960 Speaker 1: We see to be having the same conversation over and 2312 02:00:46,000 --> 02:00:49,240 Speaker 1: over again. Europe's are like have their head somewhere dark 2313 02:00:49,320 --> 02:00:51,880 Speaker 1: and damp. They don't listen, they don't pay attention to 2314 02:00:51,920 --> 02:00:53,760 Speaker 1: the realities on the ground. They say the same thing 2315 02:00:53,840 --> 02:00:55,120 Speaker 1: over and over again. And the next week you and 2316 02:00:55,160 --> 02:00:57,040 Speaker 1: I be saying the same damn thing. Oh look they're 2317 02:00:57,040 --> 02:00:57,560 Speaker 1: doing it again. 2318 02:00:58,240 --> 02:01:00,880 Speaker 9: It's crazy and you know what you had this, you know, 2319 02:01:01,320 --> 02:01:02,680 Speaker 9: trying to I don't know why they would do it, 2320 02:01:02,720 --> 02:01:05,120 Speaker 9: but kind of a celebration that the Ukraine side has 2321 02:01:05,160 --> 02:01:09,280 Speaker 9: existed through four years of war. That's laudable in one sense, 2322 02:01:09,320 --> 02:01:12,840 Speaker 9: but it's also condemning in another, because all you've done 2323 02:01:12,880 --> 02:01:15,600 Speaker 9: by not taking these off ramps is devastate the male 2324 02:01:15,680 --> 02:01:18,880 Speaker 9: population of Ukraine for the future, as you pointed out. 2325 02:01:18,920 --> 02:01:21,360 Speaker 9: And then you have Keir Starmer leading the way today 2326 02:01:21,960 --> 02:01:23,640 Speaker 9: and said, we need to get rid of this myth 2327 02:01:23,680 --> 02:01:24,880 Speaker 9: that Russia is winning the war. 2328 02:01:25,000 --> 02:01:25,320 Speaker 5: They're not. 2329 02:01:25,760 --> 02:01:28,240 Speaker 9: And I'm like, what in the world, what kind of 2330 02:01:28,320 --> 02:01:31,080 Speaker 9: planet are you on that you would say that, Because 2331 02:01:31,120 --> 02:01:34,839 Speaker 9: then that says, let's keep on. Having sacrificed the Ukrainian population, 2332 02:01:35,000 --> 02:01:37,040 Speaker 9: they can't win this, and so to go on with 2333 02:01:37,160 --> 02:01:40,360 Speaker 9: this raw, ross sounding stuff just condemns more Ukrainians to 2334 02:01:40,520 --> 02:01:42,440 Speaker 9: death and more territory to Russia. 2335 02:01:42,640 --> 02:01:45,200 Speaker 1: Well done. Your point is we pivot over to Iran 2336 02:01:45,240 --> 02:01:47,640 Speaker 1: for we part come today Daniel Davis again follow Daniel 2337 02:01:47,720 --> 02:01:51,760 Speaker 1: Davis as the Daniel Davis deep dive pivoting over to Iran. 2338 02:01:52,200 --> 02:01:54,600 Speaker 1: I guess you and I you're on record, and I 2339 02:01:54,680 --> 02:01:56,320 Speaker 1: agree with you. We don't want to We don't want 2340 02:01:56,320 --> 02:01:58,040 Speaker 1: to start dripping bombs. We don't want to go into 2341 02:01:58,080 --> 02:02:00,240 Speaker 1: a full on war. It is going to be a bleloody, 2342 02:02:00,280 --> 02:02:04,600 Speaker 1: bloody mess. Nonetheless, we have mass amassed the largest military 2343 02:02:04,680 --> 02:02:07,080 Speaker 1: force in the region since I guess the Desert Shield 2344 02:02:07,200 --> 02:02:11,240 Speaker 1: or whichever military operation was the big one, the Iraqi operation. 2345 02:02:11,440 --> 02:02:15,520 Speaker 1: But Donald Trump keeps saying and people keep reporting that, 2346 02:02:15,680 --> 02:02:17,560 Speaker 1: it's like, well, we're only a moment away from dropping 2347 02:02:17,600 --> 02:02:20,200 Speaker 1: bombs only moment away from dropping bombs, Donald Trump says, 2348 02:02:20,240 --> 02:02:22,040 Speaker 1: I'm you listen, you better negotiate him a drop up. 2349 02:02:22,720 --> 02:02:25,800 Speaker 1: Do you ever hear any dissent? I mean, again, going 2350 02:02:25,840 --> 02:02:27,800 Speaker 1: back to the Constitution, I keep harping the fact that 2351 02:02:27,840 --> 02:02:29,960 Speaker 1: Congress has the power to declare war. I don't hear 2352 02:02:30,160 --> 02:02:34,320 Speaker 1: anyone saying, wait a second, you can't declare war. You 2353 02:02:34,360 --> 02:02:37,000 Speaker 1: have a reaction to that. I mean, does the silence 2354 02:02:37,040 --> 02:02:38,720 Speaker 1: seem deafening to you? Daniel Davis? 2355 02:02:39,120 --> 02:02:39,280 Speaker 4: Yeah. 2356 02:02:39,600 --> 02:02:42,800 Speaker 9: According to recent reporting, there there are two islands I 2357 02:02:42,880 --> 02:02:46,120 Speaker 9: guess of resistance. One, according to the Wall Street Journal, 2358 02:02:46,400 --> 02:02:49,360 Speaker 9: is led by Vice President j d Vance and Tulci Gabbard, 2359 02:02:49,400 --> 02:02:52,360 Speaker 9: who are saying, don't do this. It's a counter and 2360 02:02:52,920 --> 02:02:56,120 Speaker 9: it's counter to our interest. The cost would be extremely high. 2361 02:02:56,560 --> 02:02:58,560 Speaker 9: Dan Kine, the chairman of Joint Chief of Staff, was 2362 02:02:58,720 --> 02:03:02,480 Speaker 9: reported yesterday that he is warning about the potential long 2363 02:03:02,560 --> 02:03:05,880 Speaker 9: term consequences, although President Trump dismissed that in a truth 2364 02:03:05,960 --> 02:03:07,440 Speaker 9: Social yesterday afternoon. 2365 02:03:07,520 --> 02:03:08,760 Speaker 10: So who knows what's true? 2366 02:03:08,840 --> 02:03:09,040 Speaker 3: On that? 2367 02:03:09,960 --> 02:03:14,040 Speaker 9: There is Rocanna and a Republican that I think to 2368 02:03:14,160 --> 02:03:16,040 Speaker 9: either today or tomorrow are going to put forth a 2369 02:03:16,080 --> 02:03:19,320 Speaker 9: war powers resolution vote to require commerce to go on 2370 02:03:19,520 --> 02:03:22,600 Speaker 9: record saying that you can't go forward without this. I 2371 02:03:22,680 --> 02:03:24,680 Speaker 9: don't think it's going to have any success, but at 2372 02:03:24,800 --> 02:03:28,320 Speaker 9: least there's something there. But these are just two small 2373 02:03:28,680 --> 02:03:32,640 Speaker 9: islands against an on flood onslaught of those who are 2374 02:03:32,720 --> 02:03:36,160 Speaker 9: screaming for war on the other hand, and a lot 2375 02:03:36,200 --> 02:03:38,800 Speaker 9: of them are President Trump's biggest supporters and backers in 2376 02:03:38,880 --> 02:03:41,800 Speaker 9: the United States, And of course there's also Israel who's 2377 02:03:41,800 --> 02:03:43,520 Speaker 9: pushing this hard with Benjamin and Yahoo. 2378 02:03:43,720 --> 02:03:45,360 Speaker 1: All right, well, before we go to war, there's an 2379 02:03:45,360 --> 02:03:48,560 Speaker 1: opportunity to negotiate a resolution. Daniel Davis te Lea Freeding. 2380 02:03:48,640 --> 02:03:52,000 Speaker 1: Will Iran capitulate enough to prevent this from happening. 2381 02:03:52,880 --> 02:03:53,760 Speaker 10: It's not possible. 2382 02:03:53,840 --> 02:03:56,680 Speaker 9: They can't because what they're willing to capitulate is is 2383 02:03:56,880 --> 02:03:59,480 Speaker 9: kind completely contradictory to what we're. 2384 02:03:59,320 --> 02:04:02,240 Speaker 10: Demanding that they do. It's just not even possible right now. 2385 02:04:02,400 --> 02:04:03,839 Speaker 1: Oh, kind of like Russia Ukraine. 2386 02:04:05,560 --> 02:04:07,720 Speaker 10: Well, yeah, in a sense it is. The conditions are 2387 02:04:07,720 --> 02:04:10,280 Speaker 10: a little different, but the reasons are. Bottom line is 2388 02:04:10,320 --> 02:04:10,600 Speaker 10: the same. 2389 02:04:10,920 --> 02:04:13,320 Speaker 9: Net result is we're asking Iran to do something they 2390 02:04:13,400 --> 02:04:16,000 Speaker 9: can't do, and so they're offering to do something that 2391 02:04:16,080 --> 02:04:19,080 Speaker 9: we're not asking. And so you have Yeah, I guess 2392 02:04:19,120 --> 02:04:21,120 Speaker 9: in that sense of negotiation wise, it is similar to 2393 02:04:21,240 --> 02:04:21,800 Speaker 9: that and it's. 2394 02:04:21,720 --> 02:04:22,600 Speaker 10: Not going to have an outcome. 2395 02:04:23,040 --> 02:04:25,680 Speaker 1: Daniel Davis, Depie Retiral Tendor Colonel follow him on wherever 2396 02:04:25,720 --> 02:04:27,720 Speaker 1: you get your podcast.
