46
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 1: least on its face, it's a reasonable idea plus expanding

00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 1: with Jay Ratliffe, and I thoroughly enjoy those conversations each

50
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 1: and every week on Thursday. Thank you as always the

51
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 1: Joe Strecker, executive producer of the fifty five Carcy Morning Show,

52
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 1: for lining up the guests and uh well cracking me up. Yep.

53
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:54,519
Speaker 1: It's an important thing, humor, and Joe's the humor is

54
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,799
Speaker 1: a guy. There is no question about that. Nihow that

55
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 1: wasn't really quite sure where to thok where to start?

56
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,959
Speaker 1: All right? I In the six o'clock hour, I understand

57
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: the Walnut High School had an anti ice walkout. Apparently

58
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 1: three to four hundred students decided it was better to

59
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:14,359
Speaker 1: walk out and protest ice then go to school. Got

60
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 1: a few comments on that, and I want to save

61
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 1: that for the six o'clock hour. Maybe got a comment

62
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:22,679
Speaker 1: or two on that. Feel free. But while they're out

63
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: protesting ICE, Tom Homan announced that they're drawing down federal

64
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 1: agents from Minnesota. How can they do this? Does this

65
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 1: mean it's a capitulation to the left winger screaming in

66
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 1: the streets. Not quite. I think the revolution of the

67
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 1: drawing down of federal agents from Minnesota is a reflection

68
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 1: of oh local law enforcement cooperation, at least based upon

69
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: what Tom Holman said the other day. Yes, the borders

70
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: are announce he was drawing down several hundred I think

71
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 1: it was seven hundred total agents from Minnesota. Why sighting

72
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 1: talks between the Trump administration, Governor Tim Walt's Attorney General

73
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: Keith Ellison, and Anneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry which have resulted

74
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: in securing cooperation with ICE agents and local law enforcement,

75
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 1: notably the jails. How about that? You mean all you

76
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 1: need to do is agree to hand over the criminal

77
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,919
Speaker 1: illegal immigrants from your jails directly to ICE agents, and

78
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 1: we can avoid this problem of all these people on

79
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: the streets because you let them out. Yes, I've had

80
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,559
Speaker 1: productive discussions with state and local officials, including the governor

81
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 1: of the Attorney General, Mayor of Fry, law enforcement officials

82
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: about increasing coordination in a lawful way between the county

83
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 1: jails and ICE to avoid public safety threats being released

84
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 1: back into the community. Now bear in mind, you are

85
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 1: you know the truth. I know the truth, and everybody

86
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,040
Speaker 1: behind the scenes knows the truth. It's impossible to defend

87
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 1: letting out. Let's use the worst case scenario examples. Some

88
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 1: illegal immigrant didn't go through the legal process of being here,

89
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 1: didn't get a green car, didn't apply for citizenship. You know,

90
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 1: someone who came across the border without permission, then committed

91
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,160
Speaker 1: a crime against the citizen of the United States of

92
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,359
Speaker 1: America or literally anybody else while they were here, a

93
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 1: crime for which they had due process, a sentence, and

94
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 1: went to jail guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Since they

95
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 1: have a bunch of child molesters who have been identified

96
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 1: after having been convicted beyond a reasonable doubt, they're in

97
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 1: the jail, let's focus on them, shall we A molester

98
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:45,200
Speaker 1: of children? Now, unless you're a pedophile and you want

99
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 1: to try to defend that fault, go ahead, feel free

100
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: to call me up and try to defend your perversion.

101
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 1: He twisted, miserable piece of excrement, So no one's on

102
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 1: the side of those people. You have a way to

103
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:03,040
Speaker 1: get him out of the country and not subject your

104
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 1: children to potential of being molested. Because time and time again,

105
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 1: how many studies are out there to show that these

106
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 1: twisted perverts cannot get rid of their perversion. You know,

107
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: all the counseling in the world, they're still drawn sexually

108
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 1: to little kids. That is a permanent problem for your

109
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:24,160
Speaker 1: neighborhood if one of them's living there. Huh, you mean

110
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 1: there's a law on the books that could kick this

111
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 1: guy out of the country, because well, he shouldn't have

112
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,719
Speaker 1: been here in the first place, and is demonstrated we

113
00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,320
Speaker 1: can't trust him because he's molested children for which he

114
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 1: has been convicted beyond a reasonable doubt. I think somebody

115
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 1: needs to contact ICE and let them know we're getting

116
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 1: ready to let this guy out because he's done the

117
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:46,799
Speaker 1: time he was ordered to serve. Simple Yes, a solution

118
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:51,000
Speaker 1: to a broader, long term problem. Absolutely, something that even

119
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 1: the most crazy, nut case lunatic leftists would have to

120
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 1: admit is a great thing if you get him in

121
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,719
Speaker 1: a quarter and can read their mind, yes inside going yeah,

122
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 1: I do want that guy out of the neighborhood. But

123
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 1: he's because he's causing me a problem with my broader

124
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,680
Speaker 1: philosophy of just well this open borders and don't throw

125
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 1: out anybody for any reason. Now, I'm sorry, you run

126
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 1: into a real train wreck of logic and reason when

127
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 1: you try to defend keeping these people in our country.

128
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 1: Holman said, we currently have an unprecedented number of counties

129
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 1: communicating with US now allowing ICE to take custody of

130
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 1: illegal aliens before they hit the streets. Unprecedented cooperation. Huh.

131
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: We are not requiring jails to hold people past their

132
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 1: normal release times. We're not asking anyone to be in

133
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 1: immigration officers. We're not asking any state or local official

134
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: to do immigration enforcement activity. They are not by merely

135
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 1: notifying us before they release them. Well a then to that.

136
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 1: It's a simple ask. It's a logical and reasonable ask.

137
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 1: It's sort of the legitimate exception to the sanctuary state

138
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 1: slash city policy. Isn't it all right? We're a sanctuary

139
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 1: state in city, but that's only going to apply to

140
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 1: people who haven't demonstrated themselves to be outright criminals. We're

141
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 1: going to make an exception to our outright flat blanket

142
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: don't export or don't deport anyone. It's a little astis

143
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 1: on our philosophy because more and more people realize that

144
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,680
Speaker 1: our left wing philosophy and not kicking anybody out regardless

145
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 1: of circumstance is insane, he said. Giving the increase in

146
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 1: unprecedented collaboration that would be between ICE and law enforcement

147
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:53,200
Speaker 1: locally in Minneapolis, I've announced, effective immediately, we will draw

148
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: down seven hundred law enforcement enforcement personnel effective today. That

149
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:02,559
Speaker 1: was yesterday. The President fully attends to achieve mass deportations

150
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 1: during the administration, and immigrant and for immigration enforcement actions

151
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 1: will continue every day throughout this country. He said that

152
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 1: smart law enforcement is the administration's goal, not less law enforcement.

153
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 1: Smart well, actually the point being you need less law

154
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:23,959
Speaker 1: enforcement officers if you're getting cooperation between the federal government

155
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 1: doing its job enforcing federal immigration laws and local enforcement,

156
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 1: which you know, again it's not local law enforcement's job

157
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 1: to do the work of ICE agents, but local law

158
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 1: enforcement the front line of our community safety, our communities.

159
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 1: If you're a local law enforcement officer you're like, huh,

160
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 1: maybe that'll be one less police run. I've got to

161
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,680
Speaker 1: go on, if we kick this illegal immigrant out of

162
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 1: the country, because well the guy's a criminal, that's progress.

163
00:09:58,280 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: So go ahead and take your whistle and blow it

164
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 1: in the street, and blow it really hard for the

165
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 1: pedophile that you're trying to keep in our country, losing

166
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,719
Speaker 1: side of the argument. Five one, three, seven four nine

Speaker 1: list here you want to talk about, maybe you we'll

171
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 1: do that. Either way, I'll find something to talk about.

172
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 1: Coming back, don't go away. This is fifty five krc

Speaker 1: Happy one to you. Bunk calls are always welcome, and

175
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 1: weep not anybody feel badly about the UN running out

176
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 1: of cash. Critic of the not of Nations I am

177
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: and seems to me doing nothing. You know all these

178
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 1: global conflicts and you would think, hmm, United Nations, what's

179
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:52,839
Speaker 1: its mission? Do you think they should be involved or

180
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 1: engaged in?

181
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 4: Oh?

182
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe de escalating the potential for war,

183
00:10:56,559 --> 00:11:01,960
Speaker 1: stopping genocide. Who knows where are the powder blue uniformed

184
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 1: soldiers from the United Nations when you need them? Anyway,

185
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 1: Pick your own favorite story about how you can criticize

186
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 1: the United Nations. Yesterday, UN Secretary General Antonio guitaraz he's

187
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 1: warning the member states of the United Nations, all of

188
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:21,040
Speaker 1: them about the eminent financial collapse. One hundred and ninety

189
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 1: three member states, according to the I guess the charter

190
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 1: UN found in nineteen forty five, working to maintain international peace.

191
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 1: See there's that peace word, security, promotion of human rights.

192
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 1: Except when it comes to like the weager population in China.

193
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 1: We're just gonna overlook that because China, you know, with

194
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 1: the veto power, with the UN, very powerful nation with

195
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 1: one point four to five billion people, we're just gonna

196
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: let them go. We're gonna pick on somebody smaller. Foster

197
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 1: social and economic development coordinates, humanitarian aid. I don't know

198
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 1: if any of that ever gets done, but it is

199
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 1: a laughable proposition. When you think about the what they

200
00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 1: pick and choose to focus on, you'll be critical of

201
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:01,680
Speaker 1: the United or the United States being oh, I don't know,

202
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,719
Speaker 1: in their mind a racist nation. But then again, when

203
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 1: you look at the Chinese Communist Party and the oppression of,

204
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 1: for example, the weaker people, a bit racist that. Anyway,

205
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 1: of course, we are the main contributor to the US funding.

206
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 1: He says. The crisis is deepening, threatening program delivery, risking

207
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 1: financial collapse, and the situation will deteriorate further in the

208
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:27,080
Speaker 1: near future. We have slashed our funding the UN agencies.

209
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,960
Speaker 1: We've refused to make mandatory payments to regular peacekeeping budgets.

210
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 1: Trump describe the UN as having great potential but not

211
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 1: fulfilling what it's set up to fulfill. We contribute, it's

212
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,199
Speaker 1: actually contributions based on the size of your country. We

213
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,040
Speaker 1: account for twenty two percent of the core budget, China

214
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:49,080
Speaker 1: right behind US at twenty percent. Apparently, by the end

215
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 1: of last year, there was a record one point five

216
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 1: seven billion dollars outstanding dues according to the According to Gataz,

217
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,840
Speaker 1: he said, either all member states onto their obligations to

218
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 1: pay in full and on time. Our member states must

219
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:06,439
Speaker 1: fundamentally overhaul our financial rules and to prevent an eminent

220
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 1: financial collapse. According to UN, we US currently two point

221
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 1: one to nine billion to the regular UN budget another

222
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 1: one point eight eight billion for what they call active

223
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 1: peacekeeping missions, and add on to that five hundred and

224
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 1: twenty eight million for past peacekeeping missions. I'd love to

225
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,520
Speaker 1: know what those peacekeeping missions are, though the article didn't

226
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 1: describe them, because I would like to see whether the

227
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:33,960
Speaker 1: UN actually accomplished anything on the positive side of the ledger. Yeah,

228
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,320
Speaker 1: you went on a peacekeeping mission. How did that turn out?

229
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,960
Speaker 1: Where's your success rate on that one? Where are we

230
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:45,959
Speaker 1: getting a return on our multi billion dollar investment? Anyhow

231
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 1: we for it if you choose to. I am not.

232
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:50,679
Speaker 1: Let's see what Jay's got this morning. Jay, I was

233
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: thinking all about you this morning. Welcome back to the

234
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 1: Morning Show. I recommend you look at Kim Strassel's article

235
00:13:56,800 --> 00:14:01,679
Speaker 1: in the Wall Street Journal. Gop Porka Halls earmarks or

236
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:05,080
Speaker 1: back baby big Ley. Jay, good to hear from me

237
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 1: this morning. Happy Friday, Eve, Good.

238
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 5: Morning, Brian. I will certainly do that. Not surprised, but

239
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 5: I'm glad that the news is getting out that this

240
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 5: Republican Party is not going to be our savior on

241
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 5: the spending problem. That is the biggest problem that we've

242
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 5: got to highlight that and to get back on one of

243
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,240
Speaker 5: my topics, which is the football tax, which is that

244
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:30,080
Speaker 5: hidden tax that NFL towns pay. I think last year

245
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 5: we had a problem with snow removal in Cincinnati, did

246
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 5: we not?

247
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 1: We did?

248
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 6: I think we equipped?

249
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 5: Yes, So recently our friends over in Pittsburgh. Now, remember

250
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 5: these NFL teams, the reason they get all the subsidies

251
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 5: is all the economic development, all of the growth that

252
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 5: we get. This year was Pittsburgh's turn. They had snow

253
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 5: coming down over there, and by the time they started

254
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 5: to clean it up, I think it was thirty five

255
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 5: of their ninety snowplows were broken. I did a little

256
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 5: bit of research. City of PITTSB in Allegheny County gives

257
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 5: thirteen and a half million to the Pittsburgh Steelers every

258
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,840
Speaker 5: year for twenty five years. A snowplowl costs two hundred

259
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 5: thousand bucks, so they could have replaced sixty eight trucks

260
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 5: every year just for twenty five years priorities. And yeah,

261
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,880
Speaker 5: so you know, whenever we now, if you add up

262
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 5: thirteen and a half million for twenty five years, that

263
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 5: kind of three hundred million, which is still half of

264
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 5: what we just gave the Cleveland Browns. Yeah, so everybody

265
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 5: that's you know, in these NFL towns and everybody that

266
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 5: likes all of the money going to these towns, this

267
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 5: is the trade off when you run out of money

268
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 5: and you don't have snowplows that you have. You know,

269
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 5: in our Cincinnati's got a big, beautiful stadium which allowed

270
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 5: them to go purchase the most expensive player in NFL history,

271
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 5: Joe Burrows, who now wants to be traded. That's really

272
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 5: working out well for the town. But saying that this

273
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 5: is this is the trade off when the snow can't

274
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 5: get removed and the streets can't get paved. Just enjoy

275
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 5: watching your football and understand that that's a trade off.

276
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 5: There's only so much.

277
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 7: To go around.

278
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 1: I wonder if anybody's crunched the numbers on the loss

279
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 1: of revenue as a consequence of snow. You know, likesus

280
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 1: versus how much the NFL claims any given stadium generates

281
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 1: by way of revenue for any given town in which

282
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 1: they sit.

283
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 5: You know, you no, No, it's just all upside, Brian,

284
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 5: It's just all upside. They can't really ever come up

285
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 5: with a number, but it's big. Trust me, we just

286
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 5: have and I've got property tax I got to pay.

287
00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 5: There's the local school tax. With that big beautiful stadium,

288
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 5: we have this Ohio state handing out money to all

289
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 5: you know, Ohio State University. So your state tax is

290
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 5: paying for all the football programs. Formerly universities now football programs.

291
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 5: So this football tax adds up people. So when you

292
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 5: stroke your property tax and seventy percent of that goes

293
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 5: to schools and most of that goes to football, and

294
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 5: on and on and on. Just you know, think about

295
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 5: your football tax whatever you do. And Tom, I've been Tolinklin.

296
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:03,280
Speaker 5: Don't vote Rhino. This Republican party, well, keep a closer

297
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 5: eye on them than the Democrats, and don't vote Democrats.

298
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 6: I have a good day, Brian to Jay.

299
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 1: Appreciate hearing from you. Five one three seven, eight hundred

300
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: and eighty two to three talk. We'll go phone calls

301
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 1: or local stories. Hope you can stick around five twenty nine,

302
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 1: Happy Friday, e thanks again. Everybody should have listener lunch yesterday.

303
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 1: I thoroughly enjoyed myself. Oh and for those keeping track

304
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 1: at home, and I'm sure there's like maybe one person

305
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 1: who is and that will be cribbage Mike. I lost

306
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:31,159
Speaker 1: to my uh my retired submarine or friend by two points.

307
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 1: Congratulations Mike. We were right there at the two point line,

308
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:38,080
Speaker 1: and of course he beat me on the initial count.

309
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:40,920
Speaker 1: That happens. Let's see what Tom Scott this morning? Eight Tom,

310
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:42,280

00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:47,199
Speaker 6: Good morning. And I found it funny. Jay said, I

313
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 6: did a little research. Jay. You never do a little research.

314
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 6: You do a lot of research.

315
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 7: You know.

316
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:54,920
Speaker 6: It's like it's like saying that I was. I got

317
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,359
Speaker 6: up this morning, he was breathing, Joe, and you know,

318
00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 6: Jay did a little research. All right, Pat, we appreciate

319
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 6: a Jay appreciate it, Yes, yes, I and we appreciate.

320
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:07,359
Speaker 6: I love the football tax things. And it's because it's.

321
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 1: True the gift, the gift that keeps on giving for

322
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 1: folks like you and me and others who are concerned.

323
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 6: Yes, just yeah, just sit back and enjoy your football right.

324
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:23,200
Speaker 1: Right, bread and.

325
00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 6: Find that to be hilarious. I did want to comment

326
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 6: on the whole ice thing and kind of help go

327
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 6: along with Trump and and and then to take a

328
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,480
Speaker 6: victory lap in Minnesota. I think it's uh. I think

329
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,239
Speaker 6: it's definitely deserving. You know, that's what happens when you

330
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 6: stick to your now kind of pump maybe fun intented,

331
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 6: but stick to your guns and don't back down and

332
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 6: do what you feel is right and then stick with

333
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 6: it and good things to come out of it. You

334
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,879
Speaker 6: know that we see a lot of people that fill roles,

335
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 6: whether it be a movie role or whether that be

336
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 6: a job or something like that, and it's like, the

337
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,120
Speaker 6: best person is perfect for that job. If you were

338
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 6: to design, you sit down and look listen to all

339
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 6: the characteristics of somebody who would be perfect for that job.

340
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:09,240
Speaker 6: That's Tom Homan for that job. That dude is just

341
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 6: he's a you know, he's the man and that stuff.

342
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:14,959
Speaker 6: He has all the answers, he knows exactly what he's

343
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 6: what he's talking about. He's been doing it for you

344
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 6: know what, thirty five forty years. He's been in some

345
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:24,719
Speaker 6: physician in that agency. He's perfect for that job, no nonsense.

346
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:28,159
Speaker 6: You know the whole zero tolerance thing that you know

347
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 6: he's famous for clips on that and dealing with AOC

348
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,919
Speaker 6: and congressional hearings and all that. That dude is perfect

349
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,359
Speaker 6: for that job. So I appreciate the work these guys do.

350
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:41,159
Speaker 6: They are trying to get people out of your neighborhood

351
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 6: that don't belong there. That's pretty much while it boils

352
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,119
Speaker 6: down to, they have no right to be in this

353
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 6: country because they snuck in here in the middle of

354
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,439
Speaker 6: the night or whatever, in the back of the truck,

355
00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 6: or they snuck in here. They didn't walk through and

356
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 6: go hey, I'm here. I'd like to stay here. You guys, mind,

357
00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:00,399
Speaker 6: if I stay here, I'm going to be productive. You know,

358
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,920
Speaker 6: they stuck in here, and they're cheating us, and they're

359
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 6: absorbing our resources that we pay taxes for that are

360
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:10,040
Speaker 6: for our people. There's already enough people in this country

361
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 6: that are abusing our other resources and are taking advantage

362
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,200
Speaker 6: of us, that are actual citizens of this country. Why

363
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:18,360
Speaker 6: in the world would we let more people in. Oh

364
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 6: wait a minute, we may need to inflate those voter numbers,

365
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 6: so let's let them all in. That's got to be

366
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 6: the only reason.

367
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:24,439
Speaker 1: So it seems to be.

368
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:29,159
Speaker 6: I agree. I wholeheartedly agree with Jay. Thanks for continuing

369
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 6: to sound the alarm. Keep an eye on those rhinos.

370
00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:35,680
Speaker 6: Don't vote for him if you know they're rhino, And

371
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 6: for whatever you do, do not vote Democrats. Thank you,

372
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 6: have a great day.

373
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,679
Speaker 1: You have a great day too. Tom. Yeah, and the

374
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 1: other thing that Tom Holman enjoys is at least some

375
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 1: measure of credibility on the Democrats side, because he was

376
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:52,239
Speaker 1: the borders are under Biden as well, So and you know,

377
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,239
Speaker 1: you can, I mean you kind of question away how

378
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,919
Speaker 1: we're Trump stands very firm on certain issues. And this

379
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,359
Speaker 1: goes back to my comment yesterday about you know, the

380
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:04,679
Speaker 1: the silent majority. You know damn well more than anybody

381
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 1: else that Donald Trump and his staff his administration is

382
00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 1: pretty to some probably pretty darn solid pulling information. So

383
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:15,879
Speaker 1: what you get in the mainstream media and the constant

384
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 1: you know, video and reporting about mass hysterian in Minneapolis

385
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 1: and the throngs of the masses who were running out

386
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,480
Speaker 1: in the streets against Ice. Meanwhile, Trump tries to stick

387
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,680
Speaker 1: to his guns. And yeah, bad things will happen when

388
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:32,199
Speaker 1: angry protesters are engaging and interfering with law enforcement. But

389
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 1: it is working. And Tom Holman's announcement yesterday about cooperation

390
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 1: with local law enforcement and local sheriff departments with getting

391
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 1: these illegal immigrants. Don't release them into the community, hand

392
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 1: them over to Ice subject to the detainer. That's a

393
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 1: step in the right direction. And obviously, as I was

394
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 1: ranting about earlier in the program, it's what most people want,

395
00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,119
Speaker 1: and I think that's the very thing I've seen some

396
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 1: polling which suggests exactly that. Say what you want about

397
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 1: not deporting the ill, the guy down the street who's

398
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 1: been going to work every day for the past ten

399
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,080
Speaker 1: years and never ever got involved with law enforcement, Okay,

400
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 1: you make an argument for that, but you can't make

401
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:18,160
Speaker 1: an argument for criminals. So that takes the weight off

402
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:22,200
Speaker 1: the left and their problem trying to support keeping criminals

403
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,320
Speaker 1: in our country when they're not when they're subject to

404
00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 1: being kicked out. So it ultimately works to their advantage,

405
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 1: much in the same way Minneapolis ICE agents will be

406
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,679
Speaker 1: wearing body cameras. That works out to the benefit of

407
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 1: the ICE agents. It also fulfills the request. Okay, Democrats

408
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:40,880
Speaker 1: are asking for body cameras, will be happy to give

409
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 1: it to them. There you go that behind the scenes,

410
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:45,480
Speaker 1: everybody gets what they want on that when the law

411
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:49,560
Speaker 1: enforcement officers obviously protected against being falsely accused of violating

412
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:54,159
Speaker 1: whatever laws the protesters claim they violated, and the Democrats

413
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,199
Speaker 1: can chalk up a win in the column see we

414
00:22:56,320 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 1: got cameras on law enforcement agents welcome great on out,

415
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,119
Speaker 1: oh and to Tom's boy real quickly. A couple of

416
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 1: hundred Cincinnay property owner are not the times. At Jay's

417
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,919
Speaker 1: point about snow removal, well, subset of snow removal is

418
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,159
Speaker 1: the walk the sidewalk in front of your home in

419
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,879
Speaker 1: a downtown Cincinnati you are obligated to remove it. And

420
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,400
Speaker 1: so two hundred since a property owners are roughly around

421
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 1: that have been notified that they can be fined for

422
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,920
Speaker 1: not clearing off their sidewalks. This after the January twenty fourth,

423
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 1: twenty fifth winter storm. You remember that wasn't that long ago.

424
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:28,840
Speaker 1: Since a municipal code says it's the responsibility of property

425
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:32,040
Speaker 1: owners to clear snow or ice from any sidewalk adjacent

426
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:35,399
Speaker 1: to their lot, at least two hundred did not, so

427
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 1: the the letters went out, the property owners who failed

428
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,359
Speaker 1: to clear their sidewalks facing a potential civil fine of

429
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 1: twenty five dollars. According to Sheryl Long City Manager's memo,

430
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:49,919
Speaker 1: She said the city continues to discuss how to operationalize enforcement,

431
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 1: including what departments must be involved in issuing citations and

432
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:57,719
Speaker 1: collecting fines, as well as identifying potential departmental funding and

433
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 1: staffing needs. You need more funding and more staffing to

434
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:06,800
Speaker 1: issue letters and collect fines. I guess five point thirty

435

Speaker 1: six right now, fifty five kr CD talk station, be

00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:24,440
Speaker 6: Ah.

442
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 1: That comment directed to Tom too. Sorry Tom to executive

443
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 1: decision by executive producer Internet research guru. All right, great guy,

444
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 1: Joe Stracker, get to the stack of stupid, said Joe. Apologies,

445
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 1: but yeah, we're not nationalizing elections. Check your constitution out

446
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 1: olive garden. We got an olive garden for the stack

447
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:43,400
Speaker 1: of stupid. An employee died from burn injuries he suffered

448
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:49,719
Speaker 1: suffered rather after sticking his head into a deep friar

449
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:53,040
Speaker 1: what police call a suicide attempt. Why are you doing it?

450
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 1: Holy cow? Happened last Friday at the williams Port, pennsylvani

451
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 1: olive Garden, tiber Lauren. Last year. Pennsylvania State Police spokesperson

452
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,200
Speaker 1: said the incident was a suicide attempt and out of

453
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 1: respect for the individual, and their family. They weren't going

454
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:14,640
Speaker 1: to release any information, adding that the provision in details

455
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 1: about the January thirtieth event could lead to the late

456
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 1: workers identity being discovered. Okay, not with this anyway. Was

457
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 1: a suicide attempt? I guess anyway. Manager of the olive

458
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 1: Garden had it closed for a couple of days. We're

459
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 1: not able to disclose anything due to our privacy law,

460
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,320
Speaker 1: said the manager. Police emergency workers shut up at the

461
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:37,480
Speaker 1: restaurant about four pm in response a nine to one

462
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 1: to one call about an employee removing his clothes and

463
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:45,359
Speaker 1: attempting to harm himself. What audio from the Lincoming County

464
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 1: Fire and EMS Services dispatcher heard saying quote, I don't

465
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 1: have a lot of details, A lot of people screaming,

466
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 1: some kind of burn victim. That's a quote. In a

467
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,120
Speaker 1: later dispatch, the operator said, quote a male victim went

Speaker 1: second unit sent to the restaurant to treat a female

470
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 1: worker who suffered minor burns. That woman, injured at least

471
00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:12,720
Speaker 1: in a part, struggled with the guy in an attempt

472
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:17,679
Speaker 1: to stop him from additional suffering and self inflicted burns

473
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 1: taken to local hospital to later succumb to his injuries.

474
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:22,879
Speaker 1: No longer with us. I don't know why we have

475
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,439
Speaker 1: concerns over privacy over but Lord almighty, what kind of

476
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,680
Speaker 1: mental state would you have to be to thrust your

477
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,879
Speaker 1: head into a deep friar with oil temperatures north of

478
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:34,679
Speaker 1: four hundred degrees or right around four hundred degrees?

479
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:36,680
Speaker 3: Jeez?

Speaker 1: his three children in the trunk of the car. What

483
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:56,200
Speaker 1: Westminster police shared their body camera video? Oh look, body

Speaker 1: camera video of the traffic stop. Please send an officer

485
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,000
Speaker 1: boto of the vehicle driving recklessly initiated the stop. Contacted

486
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 1: the driver not immediately identified. They say he smelled of

487
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:10,440
Speaker 1: alcohol when I guess the windows rolled down? Allright now, Joe.

488
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 1: The driver denied having any alcohol as this tradition, initially

489
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:18,200

490
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:21,040
Speaker 1: he changed his mind, declined the test, and was then

491
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:25,080

492
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 1: the officer said the man told them his kids were

493
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,159
Speaker 1: in the trunk of the car.

494
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 2: Dear, what the hell?

495
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,959
Speaker 1: Officer can be heard in the video saying, you have

496
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:41,199
Speaker 1: three kids hiding in the trunk. Yes, opened the trunk

497
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,840
Speaker 1: and there they were lying inside court of the police.

498
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:47,480
Speaker 1: Several bottles of alcohol also found inside the car as

499
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 1: a tradition driver taking to the jail Adams County Jail,

500
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 1: specifically charges including driving into the influence, reckless driving and

501
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,600
Speaker 1: child abuse. Child Protective Services, of course, car were called

502
00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:01,119
Speaker 1: and the children were released to another family. Man idiots

503
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:10,080
Speaker 1: doing idiot things because they're idiots. Amen, brother, let's see here.

504
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 1: This is weird. Officials at the twenty twenty six Winter

505
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 1: Olympics are now focusing on the crotches of ski jumpers,

506
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:25,160
Speaker 1: phrasing a major rule change in effect just in time

507
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 1: for the games. According to the report, here's the They

508
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 1: are placing tamper proof microchips in the suits of each

509
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 1: athlete and use three D scanning technology to measure the

510
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 1: space between the crotches of ski jumpers what as reported

511
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 1: by The Daily Mail, the drastic and awkward measures were

512
00:28:54,880 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 1: installed after a crotch enlarging scandal phrasing the ski jumping

513
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 1: world last year, leading to multiple suspensions among the Norwegian team.

514
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,480
Speaker 1: This is the twenty twenty five ski Jumping World Championship

515
00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 1: in Norway. The home team caught secretly adding extra fabric

516
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 1: to the crotch area of suits worn by two top

517
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:17,880
Speaker 1: male athletes. You think they were tube socks rolled up

518
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:25,480
Speaker 1: joe or maybe spinal tap with the cucumber wrapped in

519
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:31,400
Speaker 1: aluminum foil. Some people are laughing right now. Others are

520
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:36,720
Speaker 1: leg what the hell is he talking about? Anyway? You know,

521
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 1: ski jumping you down a ramp and you soar through

522
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 1: the air. Apparently the distance they travel has a large

523
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 1: lot to do with the aerodynamics of how air moves

524
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:49,959
Speaker 1: around them, meaning their suit. They say, crotch enlarging creates

525
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 1: more surface area in the skin tight suits that catch

526
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,720
Speaker 1: air just rights some more fabric around the skiers groins

527
00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 1: mean they can glide longer and further without falling too quickly,

528
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 1: potentially adding several more feet to each jump.

529
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:07,800
Speaker 2: I had no idea so.

530
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 1: In this whole gender dispute. So if if, if women

531
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 1: and men are competing in ski jumping against each other,

532
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 1: who has the competitive advantage based upon biological realities of

533
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 1: the difference between the crotch area of men and women.

534
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,360
Speaker 1: Sounds to me like men would have an already built

535
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 1: in advantage when it comes to at least ski jumping,

536
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 1: based upon what little I know having read part of

537

Speaker 1: just watching the shenanigans going on in downtown Cincinnati. So

Speaker 1: we'll find out what is an emergency under city ordinances,

546
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 1: the city's COVID distribution and oversight, and Cincinnati wanting another

Speaker 1: solar energy farm. Just reading that makes me have bile

548
00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 1: in the back of my throat. Any How, before we

Speaker 1: not there, so we're gonna have to I guess let

552
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,200
Speaker 1: Tom go. He wants to nationalize elections. I thought I

553
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 1: already made a comment about that. Anyway, This is insanity.

554
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 1: Two Memphis City council members believe the snow from the

555
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:48,240
Speaker 1: winter storm. Winterstorm firm specifically man made council member idiot

556
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 1: because there idi is. Councilmember Pearl Walker and remember Jolanda

557
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:56,320
Speaker 1: Cooper Sutton both went to the social media and publicly

558
00:31:56,400 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 1: said the snow was fake in separate Facebook posts Court

559
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:09,720
Speaker 1: of Memphis Flier. These are Memphis City council members apparently

560
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 1: swirling around on social media, which I don't participate in.

561
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 1: There are lots of claims of fake snow. Is this

562
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 1: like chemtrails anyway? Cooper Sutton, the councilperson, posted a video

563
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:26,000
Speaker 1: showing her husband attempting to melt a chunk of snow

564
00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:35,800
Speaker 1: with a lighter. Her post reads, wtw so we decided

565
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 1: to see what was really falling hitting the ground. It's

566
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 1: not melting perenn or a bracket. It stinks close bracket

567
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,320
Speaker 1: when you set fire to it. Oh my God, Jesus Christ,

568
00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:50,240
Speaker 1: what is happening? Not expressed in the form of a question.

569
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 1: It's expressed in the form of three exclamation points. Sounded

570
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:55,760
Speaker 1: like a question to me, at least based upon the

571
00:32:55,800 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 1: wording of our social media post. In video, Cooper Sutton says, quote,

572
00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:04,760
Speaker 1: this is not melting, this is fire. Oh my god,

573
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 1: what is falling from the sky hitting the ground. Oh

574
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:12,160
Speaker 1: my god. We can't make this up close? Quote Walker

575
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 1: common to the post simply quote man made close. Quote.

576
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:17,320
Speaker 1: She also posted a link to another Facebook video from

577
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:21,600
Speaker 1: somebody else named Sunshine with a y. Thacker said that

578
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:24,400
Speaker 1: when the first snow picked, when she first picked up

579
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 1: the snow, she said it was different, and therefore she

580
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:31,240
Speaker 1: would not use it to make whatever she believes to

581
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 1: be snow cream. What y'all learned in science class in

582
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 1: grade school that stuff outside still ain't snow.

583
00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 8: See your stupid mouth shut day.

584
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 1: Radliff will be hearing from you at eight thirty. There's

585
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 1: some really stupid, stupid people out there in elected capacity.

586
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 1: You know, somebody should have asked her if she was

587
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:04,280
Speaker 1: under the mindset that guam could capsize if you put

588
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:07,520
Speaker 1: more people on it. Yes, you're right, she doesn't even

589
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:10,600
Speaker 1: know where guam is. That's a good point. Joe, what's kwam?

590
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:20,080
Speaker 1: What's gwam? Go to Freemonut, Nebraska, mom of a Fremont

591
00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:24,560
Speaker 1: High school student who was struck by an suv during

592
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,319
Speaker 1: a student protest more on student protests after the Top

593
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,960
Speaker 1: of the Art News said she's anger with school officies,

594
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:33,680
Speaker 1: officials believing they should have prevented the demonstration student hit

595
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 1: by a red SUV while participating in an anti ice

596
00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:40,160
Speaker 1: protest outside the school. Why was the school? Why was

597
00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 1: the kid outside not in the school anyway? Court of

598
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,040
Speaker 1: the student, I think mostly got me in my legs

599
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:48,120
Speaker 1: because my knee is what's really bugging me right now.

600
00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:51,000
Speaker 1: All I remember is that it was read. Obviously, referring

601
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 1: to the suv girls, mom said the incident should never

602
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,640
Speaker 1: have happened. The students were not informed enough to organize

603
00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:58,680
Speaker 1: such a protest. First of all, she said, I don't

604
00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 1: feel she's informed enough who have made a decision like

605
00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:03,840
Speaker 1: that one that she made by doing a protest? Amen?

606
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 6: Mom.

607
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,440
Speaker 1: I don't feel that any of the young people that

608
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,040
Speaker 1: were involved know enough about what's going on or to

609
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:12,839
Speaker 1: do or to set up a protest, because I feel

610
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:17,360
Speaker 1: they don't know what they are protesting. Amen. Mom. She

611
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 1: thinks Freemont High School bears responsibility for the incident point

612
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,279
Speaker 1: of the fact that her daughter was allowed to make

613
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:34,120
Speaker 1: protest materials during class time. Oh look, local headline Walnut

614
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 1: Walnut Hills High School anti ice walk out draws three

615
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 1: hundred to four hundred students. More on that at the

616
00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,920
Speaker 1: top of the hour news mom said, my daughter was

617
00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:47,279
Speaker 1: allowed to make her poster and class in school to

618
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 1: career class. Where are the teachers and why weren't they

619
00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:52,719
Speaker 1: paying more attention to what these kids were doing? I

620
00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 1: feel the school is quite a bit at fault for this.

621
00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 1: Now you can make an argument that the suv driver

622
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:02,520
Speaker 1: made been the person solely responsible for running into the child.

623
00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:05,680
Speaker 1: Don't know the specifics of the actual involvement of that collision,

624
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:08,759
Speaker 1: but there is something to be said about schools who

625
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 1: egg on and encourage children to protest on a specific

626
00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:17,920
Speaker 1: side of the protest political standpoint, if you know what

627
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:21,160
Speaker 1: I mean. And he used valuable school time to make

628
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:30,280
Speaker 1: protest posters, Who can argue with that? Oh look, Walnut

629
00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:32,839
Speaker 1: Hills High School anti ice walk out draws three hundred

630
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 1: to four hundred students. Maybe we can talk about that

631
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:35,919
Speaker 1: at the top of the ur news You can feel

632
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:37,319
Speaker 1: free to chime in, and I'd love to hear from

633
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:40,440
Speaker 1: you regardless. I will be back right after the news.

634
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:44,480
Speaker 1: Today's tough headlines coming up at it's six or six

635
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:46,880
Speaker 1: if you I have krcedy talk station by Thomas right

636
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:49,840
Speaker 1: here wishing to run a very appy Thursday. Last Friday

637
00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:55,200
Speaker 1: Eve Socialists Marxist collectivists are coming on strong for the

638
00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:58,120
Speaker 1: children and a great op at peace by Cheryl Cheryl

639
00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 1: Chilling with the Washington Times. Perfect timing on this Walnut

640
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:04,479
Speaker 1: Hills High School anti ice walk out. They had three

641
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:09,360
Speaker 1: eight four hundred students walk out to protest ice, Abolish ice,

642
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:13,480
Speaker 1: Ice out for good. Let read the posters waving them around.

643
00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:21,960
Speaker 1: Organizer Walnut Hills Junior Magdalia Lopez. It was her estimate

644
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:23,919
Speaker 1: that there were three hundred to four hundred students there,

645
00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:26,600
Speaker 1: which would be sixteen percent of the school's total enrollment.

646
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,000
Speaker 1: Grace Tucker, since I inquire reporting, so I was just

647
00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:33,000
Speaker 1: scratching the service kids walked out of school apparently. I

648
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:34,840
Speaker 1: don't know if they got time to make the signs

649
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,600
Speaker 1: while in class when they should have been doing classroom work.

650
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:41,000
Speaker 1: But I guess the snow days and the road closure days,

651
00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,200
Speaker 1: and the days staying home and on the heels of

652
00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:45,200
Speaker 1: you know, stay at home for basically two years during

653
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:47,080
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen, I guess you don't need to be in

654
00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:48,840
Speaker 1: school anymore. It's more important to go out in the

655
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,640
Speaker 1: street and protest. Everybody in my listening audience remember when

656
00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:53,520
Speaker 1: they were in school and we were giving time off

657
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:56,759
Speaker 1: to quit, walk out of school and protest without consequence. Joe,

658
00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:58,239
Speaker 1: you remember that you did that all the time when

659
00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:02,320
Speaker 1: you were at Lasau, didn't you. Oh yeah, the priest

660
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:09,400
Speaker 1: to go out out there protest. I can put this

661
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:12,640
Speaker 1: in context thanks to Cheryl Chumley over at the Washington

662
00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:17,960
Speaker 1: Times who wrote earlier this week. And remember New York

663
00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:20,480
Speaker 1: Mari Zoon Mondami, the comy. He wants to get rid

664
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:22,359
Speaker 1: of the Gifted and Talented program. Let me just point

665
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:23,840
Speaker 1: that out up front, because I read an op ed

666
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:25,839
Speaker 1: piece the other day from Jason Riley talking about how

667
00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:30,640
Speaker 1: they're getting They want to limit or otherwise prevent the

668
00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:36,480
Speaker 1: magnet schools. They do not want anyone to exceed or

669
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:38,920
Speaker 1: excel in the name of equity. I guess if you

670
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,759
Speaker 1: are not. If you're smart, you are too smart. Little

671
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:43,719
Speaker 1: Johnny over there is not as smart as you. So

672
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 1: because you're smarter than little Johnny, we cannot allow you

673
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:50,279
Speaker 1: to advance. We are not allowing society to benefit from

674
00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:53,319
Speaker 1: your gifted and talented intellect by putting you in a

675
00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:58,080
Speaker 1: gifted and talented program where that intellect can increase, ultimately

676
00:38:58,120 --> 00:38:59,880
Speaker 1: benefiting all of us because you're going to build. Then

677
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,879
Speaker 1: I don't know widget that we all fall in love with.

678
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 1: Sorry anyway. So with that background, she points out at

679
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,760
Speaker 1: the outset New York City, Mayrizon, when Dobby is scamming

680
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 1: back to school's Gifted and Talented program for elementary AID

681
00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 1: students over concerns its discriminatory. Over there, all those lunatic

682
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:24,560
Speaker 1: teachers in Minneapolis and Harlem and elsewhere, like I guess

683
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:29,359
Speaker 1: Walnut Hills, who've been leading the little kids left by

684
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 1: parents in their little kids left by parents in their

685
00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:35,759
Speaker 1: charge in a radical sign wielding slogan shouting anti ice

686
00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:39,400
Speaker 1: protest lines. The Left is coming for the children, and

687
00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:42,280
Speaker 1: their coming hard. The goal to get the next generation

688
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 1: of American voters trained in the good marks this way

689
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,000
Speaker 1: to go, and to get the next generation of American leaders,

690
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:52,080
Speaker 1: whether government or business or education, military or societal, all

691
00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:56,680
Speaker 1: leaders similarly trained. Then the Democrats' vision for America will

692
00:39:56,680 --> 00:40:00,759
Speaker 1: be complete. Then the democrats hope for america future will

693
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:03,080
Speaker 1: be realized. After all, in the minds of the leftists,

694
00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:06,040
Speaker 1: there wouldn't be any problems in America Republicans and more specifically,

695
00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:09,760
Speaker 1: maggot type Republicans didn't exist. This is the lefts thinking

696
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:12,160
Speaker 1: about the chaos in Minneapolis right now. They blamed the

697
00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:15,440
Speaker 1: US Immigration and Customs Enforcement for causing chaos because, as

698
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:19,520
Speaker 1: they see it, there were no protests in the streets

699
00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:24,480
Speaker 1: until Ice came, so it must be ICE's fault. Leftists

700
00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:27,279
Speaker 1: never looked beyond their emotions, so there are only one

701
00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:31,480
Speaker 1: shift in the wind away from changing their views. See

702
00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 1: all of the multitude of times over the past two

703
00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 1: decades that Democrats Juckie Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, and every single

704
00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:42,920
Speaker 1: other one of them started screaming about the border and

705
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:46,759
Speaker 1: border security along the lines of what Trump's been doing.

706
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:48,719
Speaker 1: They used to say stuff like that, we need a

707
00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:52,120
Speaker 1: secure border, illegal immigrants should be thrown out. Yeah, okay,

708
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:55,560
Speaker 1: the wind change direction. Evil orange Man got elected, so

709
00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:58,120
Speaker 1: immediately they don't want to do anything about the border.

710
00:40:58,160 --> 00:40:59,840
Speaker 1: This is the way that this is this emotion ar

711
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:02,719
Speaker 1: that Ryl Chumley's pointing out just had to add a

712
00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:09,240
Speaker 1: little extra meat on the flesh of the statement. Again,

713
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,200
Speaker 1: only one shift in the wind away from changing the

714
00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:14,000
Speaker 1: views and with Minneapolis. No matter how many times it's explained,

715
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 1: and no matter how many times it's explained in a

716
00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:20,040
Speaker 1: most layman like matter, leftists cannot get the fact that

717
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:22,640
Speaker 1: the progression of events is this. Joe Biden, while president,

718
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:25,800
Speaker 1: left borders completely open and in so doing allowed millions

719
00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:28,879
Speaker 1: of migrants to enter the country illegally, many of hume,

720
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:32,160
Speaker 1: here's the sailing point where drug and human traffickers, gang

721
00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:37,560
Speaker 1: and cartel members, murderers, rapists, and thieves. Biden even used

722
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:39,600
Speaker 1: tax dollars to ship these illegals to parts of the

723
00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 1: north east and west in order of the border in

724
00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:45,040
Speaker 1: Mexico set them up with housing, food, et cetera, et cetera.

725
00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:48,160
Speaker 1: See that's an evil, nefarious part of the time. Texas

726
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:51,200
Speaker 1: governor was praised for kicking them out of his neighborhood

727
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:54,440
Speaker 1: and sending them off on a bus too Minneapolis perhaps

728
00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:57,719
Speaker 1: New York City, where they were met with delight by

729
00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:00,080
Speaker 1: the elected officials there, who started thinking about the the

730
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:03,759
Speaker 1: voter rolls being expanded Democrat voting, and of course the

731
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 1: census and the number of representative seats they'd be able

732
00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:09,440
Speaker 1: to get with all the new illegal immigrants in their

733
00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:15,319
Speaker 1: very blue neighborhoods. See how that works out. Donald Trump

734
00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:18,040
Speaker 1: elected president largely because he promised to clamp down on

735
00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:22,760
Speaker 1: the border and clear communities across the nation of the illegals. Deport, deport, deport.

736
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:24,600
Speaker 1: He set it over and over again on the campaign

737
00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:30,120
Speaker 1: trail and biological extension lower crimes, which when you kick

738
00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:32,959
Speaker 1: the criminals out of the country, crime does go down.

739
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:36,920
Speaker 1: That's what Trump is doing. But Democrats hate that Trump

740
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,399
Speaker 1: is done and is doing that, so they're doing whatever

741
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:43,080
Speaker 1: they can to undo that. Governor Tim Walt Minneapoli Or Minnesota,

742
00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:47,879
Speaker 1: compared Trump to Hitler and Ice to Nazi forces. Jacob Fry,

743
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:51,560
Speaker 1: of Minneapolis mayor sat ICE's goal is to cause chaos

744
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:55,480
Speaker 1: and disruption. Actually, I think that's the protesters goal. Minnesotatorney

745
00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:59,360
Speaker 1: General Keith Elson called Ice in the city a federal invasion.

746
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:03,360
Speaker 1: I'm sure people notice the rhetoric. People pay attention to

747
00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:06,760
Speaker 1: the narrative, and sick, unhinge people actually use such narratives

748
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,799
Speaker 1: to justify the unleashing of even more vicious narratives, leading

749
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:13,200
Speaker 1: to physical assaults and cruel attacks against law enforcement and yes,

750
00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:16,399
Speaker 1: of course, against Ice. But again leftists never looked beyond

751
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:19,000
Speaker 1: their emotions. They refuse to see how what's taking place

752
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:22,600
Speaker 1: in Minneapolis and elsewhere in the nation with ICE is

753
00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:26,040
Speaker 1: due entirely to Biden's open border leading to hikes in crime,

754
00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:31,040
Speaker 1: leading to abuse of tax payer dollars endless apparently abusive

755
00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:36,720
Speaker 1: taxpayer dollars. The Minneapolis Somali community and the leering centers

756
00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:40,760
Speaker 1: a great example. And we are just scratching the surface

757
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:44,759
Speaker 1: and of course ultimately leading the White House crackdowns on

758
00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:47,759
Speaker 1: lawlessness and attempt to restore law and order controls at

759
00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:51,000
Speaker 1: the border. Here we go. Some leftists are pure stupid

760
00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:54,360
Speaker 1: and incapable of understanding the facts behind ICE's current operation.

761
00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:57,480
Speaker 1: Forgive them, for they know not what they do. They

762
00:43:57,480 --> 00:44:00,480
Speaker 1: are the useful idiots in communism one oh one. But

763
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:03,279
Speaker 1: some are pure evil and use crime and lawlessness to

764
00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:06,160
Speaker 1: gain political power and to destroy America. This is the

765
00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:10,719
Speaker 1: category which many Mandami operates. This is the umbrella under

766
00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:14,720
Speaker 1: which teachers sending kids into the streets to waive anti

767
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:21,440
Speaker 1: ICE signs. Stand Sarah Parti Perry, vice president of the

768
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:25,879
Speaker 1: Legal fellow at Defending Education quote, as we suspected he might,

769
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:30,080
Speaker 1: newly minted Democratic socialist mayor Zoran Mandabi, himself a product

770
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:34,640
Speaker 1: of expensive private schools, has pledged to shut down the

771
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:37,480
Speaker 1: Gifted and Talented program, despite the fact that it helped

772
00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:45,239
Speaker 1: countless students from humble backgrounds achieve their full academic potential. Specifically,

773
00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:47,400
Speaker 1: Mamdami wants to put an end to the Gifted and

774
00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:51,000
Speaker 1: Talented program until children reach third grade status. In other words,

775
00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:55,200
Speaker 1: the brightest of the bright have to stay dumbed down

776
00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:58,839
Speaker 1: in kindergarten, first and second grades so as to keep

777
00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:03,319
Speaker 1: other kids from feeling bad. This is a socialist way

778
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:06,920
Speaker 1: and still a fake sense of equality by limiting the

779
00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:09,600
Speaker 1: potential of high achievers by making those who have a

780
00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:14,200
Speaker 1: high potential feel guilt and shame for desiring to achieve.

781
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:18,840
Speaker 1: Insert the middle aged women who feel guilt and shame

782
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:24,479
Speaker 1: because of white privilege. You walk around feeling guilty about

783
00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:26,840
Speaker 1: who you are and what you've accomplished. Just go ahead

784
00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:28,480
Speaker 1: and don't pay attention to how you were able to

785
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:32,400
Speaker 1: get there, what you did personally to achieve, whatever lofty

786
00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:34,759
Speaker 1: space you got that makes you want to run out

787
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:37,840
Speaker 1: in the street and cry and show you your virtue

788
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:41,600
Speaker 1: signaling because oh I'm white, I didn't deserve what I got.

789
00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:50,239
Speaker 1: This is the children's version of that same nonsense. New

790
00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:53,960
Speaker 1: York preschooler leads children in ice activity, according to one

791
00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:58,600
Speaker 1: website video showing a group of three to twelve year

792
00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:01,960
Speaker 1: old and their teachers holding handmade sides reading things like

793
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:06,400
Speaker 1: ice is shut Down and participating in an organized demonstration

794
00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:13,120
Speaker 1: outside the Portland Monassori School. These protests are going all

795
00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:15,839
Speaker 1: over the place, and they're organized parothetically, not just our

796
00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:22,080
Speaker 1: local Walnut Hills High School students. Another Facebook from some

797
00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:25,640
Speaker 1: different site Chloe Day School at kindergartener stage in anti ice,

798
00:46:25,680 --> 00:46:29,919
Speaker 1: anti Trump protest. Huh, She writes. This is the Marxist way.

799
00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:33,239
Speaker 1: Instill the propaganda at its earliest age possible, and as

800
00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:35,520
Speaker 1: I pointed out, suffer the little children come unto me

801
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:39,279
Speaker 1: the earlier you get them and indoctrinate them. And some say,

802
00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:41,960
Speaker 1: of course, indoctrinating into Christianity is a great thing for

803
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:45,040
Speaker 1: the young people, but it's the same thing. Introduce the

804
00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:48,480
Speaker 1: idea early to them and it becomes a religion to them,

805
00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:50,920
Speaker 1: much in the same way global warming is a religion

806
00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:55,000
Speaker 1: to people. Oh my god, I'm gonna commit blasphemy if

807
00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:57,680
Speaker 1: I make an argument that carbon dioxide's plant food, and

808
00:46:57,760 --> 00:47:05,920
Speaker 1: the earth needs it. Education, to the leftists is not

809
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:08,000
Speaker 1: so much an opportunity for the individual as it is

810
00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:12,719
Speaker 1: a weapon for war against individualism. Mom, Donnie's doing this.

811
00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:15,560
Speaker 1: Teachers and daycare providers are doing that here, little here,

812
00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:18,360
Speaker 1: little there, a little bit more. Suddenly, or seemingly suddenly,

813
00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:21,680
Speaker 1: America is no more. It's imparting to see the acts

814
00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:23,560
Speaker 1: of the left as a whole, as a movement, as

815
00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:27,279
Speaker 1: a concerted and collective effort to destroy the nation and

816
00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:32,680
Speaker 1: erase God given freedoms. They're not by chance, they're not anomalies.

817
00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:38,200
Speaker 1: They're not coincidences. Marxists and leftists and socialists and communists

818
00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:41,719
Speaker 1: are today's democrats, and they love nothing more than to

819
00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:45,880
Speaker 1: make their destructive goals easier by getting the children on board,

820
00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:48,319
Speaker 1: by having them serve as willing participants, and the take

821
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:56,399
Speaker 1: down to their own country. Exclamation point Cheryl Chumley, going

822
00:47:56,440 --> 00:48:03,320
Speaker 1: back to the well the education numbers, the sad, empathetic scores.

823
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:07,000
Speaker 1: Children cannot read and they cannot perform math. And I

824
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:08,840
Speaker 1: know it's a broad brush statement. I guess it depends

825
00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:11,880
Speaker 1: on what school, what what what school you're in. Like

826
00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:14,120
Speaker 1: for example, if you're in the Gifted and Talented program

827
00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:17,520
Speaker 1: formerly in New York City. Your kids may score great.

828
00:48:20,440 --> 00:48:23,319
Speaker 1: We can't have any of that, now, can we. That

829
00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:26,160
Speaker 1: kid's too smart. It's gonna see through the propaganda. Six

834
00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:41,640
Speaker 1: in Mississippi.

835
00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:41,960
Speaker 7: James.

836
00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:43,880
Speaker 1: Hold on, James, get you calling next, Brian. Thanks for

837
00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:45,160
Speaker 1: calling this morning, and happy Friday.

838
00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:45,600
Speaker 6: Ear to you.

839
00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:47,800
Speaker 4: Happy Friday, Brian.

840
00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:48,600
Speaker 6: How are you today?

841
00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:51,000
Speaker 1: I'm pretty darn good. Thank you very much. Hope you

842
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:51,720
Speaker 1: can say the same.

843
00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:55,840
Speaker 4: I can't. Yeah, I want to touch on the Mandani

844
00:48:55,920 --> 00:49:00,840
Speaker 4: and the gifted programs. It's since equality never talks about

845
00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:03,680
Speaker 4: effort and sacrifice being equal only outcome.

846
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:04,759
Speaker 6: That's that's the.

847
00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:08,680
Speaker 4: Only true way to true equality is for everybody be

848
00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:11,040
Speaker 4: equally poor and equally stupid.

849
00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:14,640
Speaker 1: Yep. That's Marxism rolled up at them all.

850
00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:15,880
Speaker 6: Yep.

851
00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:19,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, because you're never going to get that ten percent

852
00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:21,640
Speaker 4: of people to even go to work, much less work

853
00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:24,360
Speaker 4: over time. But so you got to you got to

854
00:49:24,440 --> 00:49:25,439
Speaker 4: keep the other man down.

855
00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:27,600
Speaker 1: Well, you hit the nail the head on why Marxism

856
00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:31,520
Speaker 1: and socialism generally speaking, always fail. Once you take away

857
00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:34,839
Speaker 1: the incentive of hard work, which is usually higher pay,

858
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:37,360
Speaker 1: better benefits, that kind of stuff. If you take that

859
00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:41,040
Speaker 1: away and everybody's treated equally, uh, then there's no incentive

860
00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:42,319
Speaker 1: work hard, right.

861
00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:46,440
Speaker 4: I sure wouldn't be headed into Kentucky to work all

862
00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:47,040
Speaker 4: day today.

863
00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:50,840
Speaker 1: No, I know, I could promise you that absolutely. Hey,

864
00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:54,160
Speaker 1: everybody makes pick a figure, thirty thousand dollars. That's it.

865
00:49:54,520 --> 00:49:57,160
Speaker 1: You're never going to make more than that. What possible

866
00:49:57,200 --> 00:49:59,279
Speaker 1: reason would you have to want to work harder than

867
00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:01,440
Speaker 1: the guy next you who's just got his feed up

868
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:03,879
Speaker 1: and maybe his surfing porn in a room all day long,

869
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:06,759
Speaker 1: purporting to work. That's in the federal government. I remember

870
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:10,880
Speaker 1: reading stories about that. Why. That's the reason socialism fails.

871
00:50:10,880 --> 00:50:13,839
Speaker 1: There's no incentive to work, no incentive produce. Why would

872
00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:16,440
Speaker 1: you create a good or service or product unless you're

873
00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:18,880
Speaker 1: going to reap the benefit from producing something that you

874
00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:24,400
Speaker 1: realize at one point that mankind actually once the capitalist motivation.

875
00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:27,200
Speaker 1: We got so many cool things in this world, so

876
00:50:27,239 --> 00:50:29,600
Speaker 1: many things that have made life more pleasurable to live.

877
00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:32,320
Speaker 1: So many things that have extended human life, removed disease

878
00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:37,680
Speaker 1: drugs in smartphones and cell phones, and say what about AI.

879
00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:41,320
Speaker 1: AI was not created from an idiot who was dumbed

880
00:50:41,320 --> 00:50:44,799
Speaker 1: down in a public high school. I imagine whoever created that.

881
00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:47,520
Speaker 1: I think Bill Gates was probably in the Gifted and

882
00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:53,080
Speaker 1: Talented Program Mississippi. James, Welcome to the Morning Show. Happy Friday,

883
00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:55,200
Speaker 1: ev you, sir, Always a pleasure hearing from you.

884
00:50:56,360 --> 00:50:58,960
Speaker 9: I come in peace, love every about it, and there's

885
00:50:59,000 --> 00:50:59,680
Speaker 9: nothing you can do.

886
00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:01,480
Speaker 1: Love message James.

887
00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:04,680
Speaker 9: All right, a couple of points, Brian. Now this is

888
00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:09,200
Speaker 9: our Black History Month, sir, and you know, I look

889
00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:13,120
Speaker 9: at it my belief that the Bible is Black history.

890
00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:14,879
Speaker 1: Yes, you have to think.

891
00:51:16,080 --> 00:51:18,720
Speaker 9: And I think if we take the Bible back into

892
00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:23,879
Speaker 9: schools or other teaching institution, my black kids would learn

893
00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:27,800
Speaker 9: to do better if they realized this is actually their history.

894
00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:34,799
Speaker 9: I mean through colonizing, white washing, white supremacy, white racism.

895
00:51:35,360 --> 00:51:38,239
Speaker 9: You know, we was giving this picture, this white Jesus,

896
00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:42,520
Speaker 9: and we was told that the melody in our skin

897
00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:47,200
Speaker 9: was a curse. So when you have all this horrendous

898
00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:50,799
Speaker 9: stuff and put on a people, it wears them down.

899
00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:55,400
Speaker 9: Then on the other side we talk about doing better, Well,

900
00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:58,960
Speaker 9: how about letting some of the truth come out. Now

901
00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:02,160
Speaker 9: we may not know Jesus look like, but I think

902
00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:05,920
Speaker 9: we can pretty much say he didn't look like what

903
00:52:05,960 --> 00:52:07,840
Speaker 9: we've been perpetuated to.

904
00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:12,120
Speaker 1: Let me interject, and I agree with you wholeheartedly. Given

905
00:52:12,160 --> 00:52:14,279
Speaker 1: the region of the world and the fact we didn't

906
00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:18,200
Speaker 1: have mass migration back then, the likelihood that Jesus was

907
00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:20,799
Speaker 1: a person of color is very very strong. You make

908
00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:23,520
Speaker 1: a good argument for that. I've never argued against that.

909
00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:25,480
Speaker 1: But let me go back to doctor King. Since it

910
00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:28,560
Speaker 1: is Black History Month. Content of character, not color of skin.

911
00:52:28,920 --> 00:52:32,279
Speaker 1: What does it matter the color of Jesus's skin. If

912
00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:35,000
Speaker 1: it's the content of his character and the message that

913
00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:37,680
Speaker 1: he conveyed, that is so is what is so important?

914
00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:41,239
Speaker 1: You know, Faith isn't driven by the color of Jesus's skin.

915
00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:43,719
Speaker 1: Apparently is driven by things like the sermon on the Mount,

916
00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:45,480
Speaker 1: his message, and his miracles.

917
00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:50,200
Speaker 9: Well I'm talking about the negative benefit was driven by

918
00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:51,320
Speaker 9: the color of his skin?

919
00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:53,759
Speaker 1: Well no, so I believe thoroughly, and I have no

920
00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:57,000
Speaker 1: history to document this. But if you're trying to sell

921
00:52:57,280 --> 00:53:01,360
Speaker 1: Jesus in an all white Europe. How do you convey

922
00:53:01,400 --> 00:53:05,480
Speaker 1: the message in a largely, if not exclusively, illiterate population.

923
00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:08,040
Speaker 1: We're talking at a time before the printing press, even

924
00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:11,440
Speaker 1: where most people were not educated and could not even read.

925
00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:13,680
Speaker 1: You're trying to bring them over the side of it.

926
00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:17,200
Speaker 1: Maybe salvation, Maybe it's manipulation or control. But you're not

927
00:53:17,239 --> 00:53:20,000
Speaker 1: going to wave around a stained glass image of a

928
00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:24,080
Speaker 1: black man in a basically all white society and sell

929
00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:27,200
Speaker 1: the message. So what's more important that you faked it?

930
00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:29,479
Speaker 1: That you made a picture of someone who you didn't

931
00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:31,719
Speaker 1: even have a photograph of in order to try to

932
00:53:31,760 --> 00:53:36,239
Speaker 1: convey the message. Was it wrong in doing that? Maybe

933
00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:38,000
Speaker 1: they were just dealing with this. Maybe they were just

934
00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:40,640
Speaker 1: doing dealing with a society who couldn't see through race,

935
00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:42,879
Speaker 1: and that was a bad thing. So all right, we'll

936
00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:45,399
Speaker 1: go ahead and make Jesus white and then we'll try

937
00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:48,239
Speaker 1: to get them to buy into this important message.

938
00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:53,919
Speaker 9: And that was good for that time, for that time. Yeah,

939
00:53:53,960 --> 00:53:57,120
Speaker 9: that's a saying, this is the age of aquarian Some

940
00:53:57,320 --> 00:54:00,160
Speaker 9: truth need to be changed or come out. You know'll

941
00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:01,919
Speaker 9: not be changed, but come out.

942
00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:04,200
Speaker 1: I don't think it's a lot of I think it's

943
00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:06,719
Speaker 1: a worthy conversation to have. But again I'm still going

944
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:08,840
Speaker 1: to go back to the message it shouldn't really matter

945
00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:11,480
Speaker 1: a wit. And here we are in twenty twenty six

946
00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:14,640
Speaker 1: and we can have a conversation about the reality of

947
00:54:14,719 --> 00:54:17,439
Speaker 1: what color Jesus's skin may or may not have been.

948
00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:21,920
Speaker 1: But I'll still go back to the fact it shouldn't matter,

949
00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:26,560
Speaker 1: and honestly it doesn't. James Love hearing from me, man,

Speaker 1: the victim at the time of the shooting, all of

972
00:55:31,080 --> 00:55:36,360
Speaker 1: whom fled the scene. I guess leaving the victim there anyway,

973

Speaker 1: Good friends right. Victim taken to the hospital with serious injuries,

974

981
00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:09,400
Speaker 1: Ohio bill being tell me what you think about this.

982
00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:11,279
Speaker 1: This seems kind of strange to me. I know I've

983
00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:13,920
Speaker 1: been Bar owners are maybe happy, but unhappy about this anyway,

984
00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:17,520
Speaker 1: send it. Bill two forty eight will require bars and

985
00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:24,439
Speaker 1: restaurants to provide date rape drug test kits for the customers.

986
00:56:25,520 --> 00:56:27,440
Speaker 1: Court of the bill, businesses would have to provide these

987
00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:30,799
Speaker 1: kits either for free or at wholesale costs. Described as

988
00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:33,719
Speaker 1: a bipartisan bill put forward by Senators Bill Demora and

989
00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:39,359
Speaker 1: he's a Democrat and Lewis Blessing from corn Township, Demur said,

990
00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:41,120
Speaker 1: I don't know who would be opposed to this except

991
00:56:41,120 --> 00:56:44,600
Speaker 1: people who want to spike drinks. There is a cost

992
00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:46,839
Speaker 1: associated with it, I guess, I don't know. Bill would

993
00:56:46,880 --> 00:56:49,840
Speaker 1: mandate liquor permanent established and provide customers with kids that

994
00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:54,880
Speaker 1: detect these date rape drugs. Demora saying I wanted to

995
00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:56,560
Speaker 1: try to do something about that, and I found out

996
00:56:56,600 --> 00:56:59,000
Speaker 1: that there are these test kit strips and the tests

997
00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:01,440
Speaker 1: for ten or twelve of them most used substances that

998
00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:05,200
Speaker 1: spike drinks. Roofies, for example, was one of the specific

999
00:57:05,320 --> 00:57:09,560
Speaker 1: sighted by Ali hannert Over at Fox nineteen, He said

1000
00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:13,400
Speaker 1: that one in thirteen college age individuals suspect they've been drugged.

1001
00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:18,160
Speaker 1: So policy, a qualified permit holder would not be liable

1002
00:57:18,520 --> 00:57:23,000
Speaker 1: for a defective, inaccurate test of a beverage on their

1003
00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:25,720
Speaker 1: premises according to the legislation, So it provides some immunity

1004
00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:28,600
Speaker 1: for the test kit itself, and he claims the more

1005
00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:31,080
Speaker 1: does anyway, the bars could benefit from providing the strips

1006
00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:33,640
Speaker 1: because it would lower their insurance rates. So right now,

1007
00:57:33,680 --> 00:57:35,840
Speaker 1: if your drinking spikee and something happens to you, you

1008
00:57:35,840 --> 00:57:39,160
Speaker 1: could sue the bar civilly obviously. Now, if you're providing

1009
00:57:39,160 --> 00:57:40,840
Speaker 1: these test strips, it's going to help the bars with

1010
00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:43,000
Speaker 1: their liability insurance. So we think this is something they'll

1011
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:45,320
Speaker 1: want to do to help their customers so they feel safe,

1012
00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:48,040
Speaker 1: all right, ignoring the altruistic motive behind this, and I

1013
00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:52,800
Speaker 1: get it, question how much lower will their insurance rates

1014
00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:56,480
Speaker 1: be if that's the benefit, And how much will providing

1015
00:57:56,560 --> 00:57:58,960
Speaker 1: test strips to every single patron who comes into the

1016
00:57:58,960 --> 00:58:00,880
Speaker 1: bar during a period of year year counted year for

1017
00:58:00,920 --> 00:58:03,920
Speaker 1: the insurance counter year for the cost of the strips

1018
00:58:05,520 --> 00:58:08,400
Speaker 1: As a parent, And I did not know these strips

1019
00:58:08,400 --> 00:58:12,200
Speaker 1: even existed. As a parent rewind about fifteen years or so,

1020
00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:14,880
Speaker 1: I think for my daughter's sake, I probably would have

1021
00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:17,040
Speaker 1: bought the test strips and had her keep them in

1022
00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:22,800
Speaker 1: her purse along with the mace. Right and knowing that

1023
00:58:22,840 --> 00:58:25,680
Speaker 1: these test kits are out there and available, if you're

1024
00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:30,200
Speaker 1: a parent, you might want to consider getting one. We'll decide.

1025
00:58:30,360 --> 00:58:33,040
Speaker 1: I guess they'll figure it out for us. In Columbus

1034
00:58:56,600 --> 00:58:59,200
Speaker 1: I'm doing pretty good, man. I cannot I can say honestly.

1035
00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:00,480
Speaker 1: I hope you can say the same.

1036
00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:03,600
Speaker 10: Oh yeah, well, yesterday I saw a guy riding his

1037
00:59:03,680 --> 00:59:08,960
Speaker 10: motorcycle this morning, and I ah ride all ride.

1038
00:59:09,520 --> 00:59:09,720
Speaker 7: No.

1039
00:59:10,880 --> 00:59:15,200
Speaker 1: I have the fairest of weather motorcycle riders, so much

1040
00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:17,240
Speaker 1: so that I think I only put like five hundred

1041
00:59:17,280 --> 00:59:19,840
Speaker 1: miles on my bike all of last year. I do

1042
00:59:19,960 --> 00:59:21,760
Speaker 1: not ride a whole lot, but there's no way in

1043
00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:24,520
Speaker 1: hell I would even know. I'm not jumping into a

1044
00:59:24,560 --> 00:59:28,080
Speaker 1: frozen lake in the middle of winter either, Pat Well.

1045
00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:31,520
Speaker 10: And swimming the Ohio either. Yesterday there were parts of

1046
00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:33,920
Speaker 10: the Ohio that were completely ice covered, but by the

1047
00:59:34,000 --> 00:59:37,520
Speaker 10: afternoon they had cleared up. But that still doesn't mean, yeah,

1048
00:59:37,560 --> 00:59:39,560
Speaker 10: I want to do a polar swim. That right, an

1049
00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:44,320
Speaker 10: intellectual endeavor, no one. The first thing that got my

1050
00:59:44,400 --> 00:59:48,960
Speaker 10: goat yesterday was politicians trying to pass laws that would

1051
00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:53,000
Speaker 10: basically make it so that illegal marijuana could come back

1052
00:59:53,040 --> 00:59:59,160
Speaker 10: into the into the forefront instead of having legalized, controlled, taxed.

1053
00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:03,560
Speaker 10: Mari wanted that you can't lace the fentanyl, and I

1054
01:00:03,920 --> 01:00:06,520
Speaker 10: do not understand why the voice of the people is

1055
01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:07,480
Speaker 10: being ignored.

1056
01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:08,080
Speaker 4: Again.

1057
01:00:10,040 --> 01:00:12,440
Speaker 10: I do not agree with constant use of it, nor

1058
01:00:12,520 --> 01:00:15,640
Speaker 10: do I agree with constant drinking, but to make it

1059
01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:20,120
Speaker 10: so that the illegal stuff can be available easily again

1060
01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:21,880
Speaker 10: while it's always been available.

1061
01:00:21,600 --> 01:00:25,240
Speaker 1: Pat, But I guess what specifically referring to the legalization

1062
01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:27,840
Speaker 1: that the fifty seven percent of a Highlands voted for

1063
01:00:27,880 --> 01:00:32,479
Speaker 1: by way of recreational legalization or I think it's SB

1064
01:00:32,680 --> 01:00:34,960
Speaker 1: fifty six, which is a ballot petition out which is

1065
01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:37,800
Speaker 1: trying to unring the bell of the subsequent laws that

1066
01:00:37,840 --> 01:00:41,040
Speaker 1: were passed by our elected officials in Columbus which take

1067
01:00:41,160 --> 01:00:44,560
Speaker 1: away some of the lawful status of certain products like

1068
01:00:44,560 --> 01:00:48,480
Speaker 1: the beverages and also put limitations on open container marijuana

1069
01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:51,360
Speaker 1: products versus closed ones that kind of thing.

1070
01:00:51,840 --> 01:00:55,040
Speaker 3: What are you focusing on, Well, see, I just I

1071
01:00:55,120 --> 01:01:00,120
Speaker 3: think that the the legalization of recreational because not not

1072
01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:03,320
Speaker 3: only is it an effective pain killer, but it takes

1073
01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:09,760
Speaker 3: away the opportunity for illegal merchandising to be available to

1074
01:01:09,800 --> 01:01:13,720
Speaker 3: people that could increase the opportunity for fentanyl to be

1075
01:01:13,840 --> 01:01:14,400
Speaker 3: used on it.

1076
01:01:14,520 --> 01:01:18,280
Speaker 1: Well, I agree with you to a certain extent because

1077
01:01:18,320 --> 01:01:22,960
Speaker 1: anything sold in one of the licensed stores must be tested,

1078
01:01:23,040 --> 01:01:25,240
Speaker 1: so you're going to get an accurate reflection of how

1079
01:01:25,280 --> 01:01:27,440
Speaker 1: much THC is in it. The other components will make

1080
01:01:27,480 --> 01:01:29,000
Speaker 1: it up, and it's also been tested to make sure

1081
01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:31,400
Speaker 1: it doesn't have drugs in it, So that's a safety issue.

1082
01:01:31,600 --> 01:01:34,360
Speaker 1: So I would think paying extra for marijuana in order

1083
01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:37,160
Speaker 1: to ensure that it's safe would be a prudent decision.

1084
01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:39,960
Speaker 1: But just because it's legal in the sense you can

1085
01:01:39,960 --> 01:01:41,760
Speaker 1: go out and buy it and it is safe doesn't

1086
01:01:41,800 --> 01:01:44,880
Speaker 1: mean there aren't people out in the world still selling

1087
01:01:44,920 --> 01:01:48,120
Speaker 1: it illegally on the black market because they can sell

1088
01:01:48,120 --> 01:01:52,919
Speaker 1: it cheaper those pesky laws of prices. You can buy

1089
01:01:52,960 --> 01:01:55,080
Speaker 1: something from a pedler on the street for a lot

1090
01:01:55,160 --> 01:01:57,280
Speaker 1: less money than you can in a brick and mortar

1091
01:01:57,400 --> 01:02:00,840
Speaker 1: legalized weed store, because of course it's brick and overhead,

1092
01:02:00,880 --> 01:02:04,760
Speaker 1: electricity bills, overhead, paying to have testing, overhead, and the

1093
01:02:04,800 --> 01:02:07,960
Speaker 1: extra taxes, so you're competing for price point there.

1094
01:02:08,840 --> 01:02:12,560
Speaker 10: And see, I would err on the side of not

1095
01:02:12,600 --> 01:02:13,640
Speaker 10: playing Russian roulette.

1096
01:02:13,680 --> 01:02:18,000
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, A smart pat pat, A smart person does

1097
01:02:18,040 --> 01:02:20,040
Speaker 1: that for the reasons I just mentioned it. Maybe a

1098
01:02:20,080 --> 01:02:25,040
Speaker 1: whole lot more. But you know, we're talking about maybe

1099
01:02:25,080 --> 01:02:28,560
Speaker 1: people on budgets and stoners and young people who are like,

1100
01:02:28,600 --> 01:02:31,560
Speaker 1: I don't have forty dollars, I've got twenty and there's

1101
01:02:31,600 --> 01:02:33,080
Speaker 1: a guy in the storm in the corner selling you

1102
01:02:33,160 --> 01:02:35,160
Speaker 1: weed for twenty bucks, and oh lo and behold, it's

1103
01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:36,120
Speaker 1: gott fentanyl.

1104
01:02:35,760 --> 01:02:42,440
Speaker 10: In it or may Yeah, see the whole recreational thing. Okay, yeah,

1105
01:02:43,040 --> 01:02:46,760
Speaker 10: I see it. I smell it all the time, and

1106
01:02:46,800 --> 01:02:50,480
Speaker 10: I do with the level of thac in it. Now,

1107
01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:53,920
Speaker 10: how in the world can people be even moderately functional

1108
01:02:54,200 --> 01:02:56,760
Speaker 10: when they're under the influence of weed. That's that's strong

1109
01:02:57,280 --> 01:02:59,600
Speaker 10: and I just scratched my head. But I mean, it

1110
01:02:59,680 --> 01:03:03,000
Speaker 10: is a choice that you make. And then this is

1111
01:03:03,000 --> 01:03:06,640
Speaker 10: a free country. But you at a certain point having

1112
01:03:06,720 --> 01:03:10,680
Speaker 10: it in pop or beverages and having it in gummies

1113
01:03:10,720 --> 01:03:13,600
Speaker 10: that you know, you can walk around and you're eating

1114
01:03:13,600 --> 01:03:15,280
Speaker 10: a gummy and next thing you know, the kids sitting

1115
01:03:15,280 --> 01:03:18,200
Speaker 10: next to you in class is acting bizarre. Well, it's

1116
01:03:18,240 --> 01:03:21,800
Speaker 10: probably because they've got into mommy and Daddy's gummies or

1117
01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:24,040
Speaker 10: somebody sold them some, and now they're going to be

1118
01:03:24,080 --> 01:03:25,760
Speaker 10: stupid the rest of the day, and they're gonna probably

1119
01:03:25,760 --> 01:03:27,640
Speaker 10: go out in protest with walle of deal scars.

1120
01:03:28,440 --> 01:03:31,760
Speaker 1: That's certainly possible, But you're pointing out problems that have

1121
01:03:31,840 --> 01:03:35,720
Speaker 1: existed since well the down of mankind drugs. As long

1122
01:03:35,760 --> 01:03:38,280
Speaker 1: as there are drugs out there, legal or illegal, people

1123
01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:41,080
Speaker 1: are gonna make terrible choices and terrible things are going

1124
01:03:41,120 --> 01:03:43,640
Speaker 1: to happen. And yes, you're gonna have some space cadets

1125
01:03:43,640 --> 01:03:45,520
Speaker 1: floating around out there. But then that again is a

1126
01:03:45,520 --> 01:03:47,760
Speaker 1: problem that we've been dealing with since the Donna Mankind

1127

1140
01:04:34,240 --> 01:04:37,440
Speaker 1: at eight thirty. I heard me the aviation expert, and

1141
01:04:37,720 --> 01:04:39,280
Speaker 1: once again thanks for everybody he made it to listener

1142
01:04:39,360 --> 01:04:41,600
Speaker 1: lunch yet I had a fabulous time, great crowd, and

1143
01:04:41,960 --> 01:04:44,040
Speaker 1: hello to all of the folks who had first time

1144
01:04:44,080 --> 01:04:47,480
Speaker 1: listener to lunch folks. Just terrific time there, and yes

1145
01:04:47,560 --> 01:04:50,440
Speaker 1: I lost cribbage just by two points a nod to

1146
01:04:50,520 --> 01:04:53,240
Speaker 1: cribbage Mike, and if you wait long enough, you realize

1147
01:04:53,280 --> 01:04:56,760
Speaker 1: that you were right. Not connected with listener lunch. This

1148
01:04:56,840 --> 01:04:58,880
Speaker 1: next article I want to bring up to speed here.

1149
01:05:00,840 --> 01:05:02,280
Speaker 1: It's one of those who can argue with that kind

1150
01:05:02,280 --> 01:05:04,400
Speaker 1: of thing. All these crazies out in the streets talking

1151
01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:06,840
Speaker 1: about transgender rights, and you know, don't interfere with my

1152
01:05:06,920 --> 01:05:11,400
Speaker 1: transgender surgery. This is necessary a gender affirming care. You

1153
01:05:11,480 --> 01:05:14,400
Speaker 1: shouldn't tell a fifteen year old that a girl that

1154
01:05:14,480 --> 01:05:16,880
Speaker 1: she should have or that she shouldn't have her breast

1155
01:05:16,960 --> 01:05:19,120
Speaker 1: lopped off she thinks she's a guy, go ahead and

1156
01:05:19,160 --> 01:05:21,840
Speaker 1: do it. That kind of thing, and you scratch your

1157
01:05:21,880 --> 01:05:23,720
Speaker 1: head and you wonder, is this really happen? Does the

1158
01:05:23,760 --> 01:05:29,320
Speaker 1: medical community grasp the horror of this mutilation? Are there

1159
01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:33,400
Speaker 1: no ethics in morals anymore? Do they really truly believe

1160
01:05:33,440 --> 01:05:35,680
Speaker 1: you can turn a male into a female or a

1161
01:05:35,720 --> 01:05:38,560
Speaker 1: female into a male, despite the fact that the chromosomes

1162
01:05:38,600 --> 01:05:42,520
Speaker 1: never change, merely by altering the exterior, you know what,

1163
01:05:42,560 --> 01:05:47,920
Speaker 1: you can see parts of a human being, and you're

1164
01:05:47,960 --> 01:05:49,880
Speaker 1: all going out, there's no way that's not right, It

1165
01:05:49,880 --> 01:05:51,880
Speaker 1: could never be right. But yet they're doing it well.

1166
01:05:51,960 --> 01:05:54,680
Speaker 1: Wait long enough, and someone's going to get a two

1167
01:05:54,720 --> 01:05:58,720
Speaker 1: million dollars a civil lawsuit settlement for the gender mutilation

1168
01:05:58,840 --> 01:06:00,760
Speaker 1: that happened, that just happened the other day. The first

1169
01:06:00,800 --> 01:06:03,919
Speaker 1: of what will ultimately be many who regret that these

1170
01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:11,360
Speaker 1: adults in the room push them toward dangerous choices. Welcome

1171
01:06:11,600 --> 01:06:14,200
Speaker 1: to the first domino to fall. The American Society of

1172
01:06:14,240 --> 01:06:18,919
Speaker 1: Plastic Surgeons as now recommending that member physicians refrain from

1173
01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:22,640
Speaker 1: performing gender transition surgeries on anybody under the age of nineteen.

1174
01:06:22,720 --> 01:06:24,960
Speaker 1: And you know what, who else is coming along on board?

1175
01:06:25,160 --> 01:06:28,920
Speaker 1: The American Medical Association, they too have signaled that they're

1176
01:06:28,960 --> 01:06:30,960
Speaker 1: going to do the same thing as the American Society

1177
01:06:30,960 --> 01:06:36,320
Speaker 1: of Plastic Surgeons. Don't do it. The Plastic Surgeons Group's

1178
01:06:36,680 --> 01:06:42,160
Speaker 1: position statement quote when uncertainty occurs not just the magnitude

1179
01:06:42,200 --> 01:06:44,720
Speaker 1: of the benefit, but the existence of the benefit in

1180
01:06:44,800 --> 01:06:48,880
Speaker 1: and out of itself, and when potential harms are irreversible

1181
01:06:49,000 --> 01:06:55,439
Speaker 1: and identity defining, the principles of beneficence and non moleficence

1182
01:06:55,560 --> 01:07:00,240
Speaker 1: require a more precautionary approach. You gotta do a little

1183
01:07:00,280 --> 01:07:03,400
Speaker 1: weighing of the cost benefit analysis. Is the boiled down

1184
01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:09,240
Speaker 1: version of that former ASPS president Scott Brady Glassberg, quoted

1185
01:07:09,240 --> 01:07:11,560
Speaker 1: in The New York Times, there's no data to suggest

1186
01:07:11,600 --> 01:07:14,360
Speaker 1: that you can predict who will benefit from surgery and

1187
01:07:14,400 --> 01:07:18,440
Speaker 1: who will have negative outcome. That requires taking the side

1188
01:07:18,480 --> 01:07:22,240
Speaker 1: of caution, which means deferring or postponing these surgeries until

1189
01:07:22,280 --> 01:07:26,040
Speaker 1: the age of nineteen, called nineteen arbitrary. At least that

1190
01:07:26,120 --> 01:07:33,000
Speaker 1: person is an adult and can make adult choices. Accord

1191
01:07:33,040 --> 01:07:35,040
Speaker 1: to the report of the overwhelming majority of gender altering

1192
01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:39,360
Speaker 1: surgeries performed on minors are mass sectomies and yes. Last

1193
01:07:39,400 --> 01:07:41,640
Speaker 1: week in New York, jury found a psychologist and a

1194
01:07:41,680 --> 01:07:45,920
Speaker 1: surgeon lible from olpractice after lopping off the breast of

1195
01:07:45,960 --> 01:07:48,760
Speaker 1: a sixteen year old girl, who ultimately lived with a

1196
01:07:48,760 --> 01:07:52,000
Speaker 1: tremendous amount of regret, filed a lawsuit. She's now twenty

1197
01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:55,080
Speaker 1: two and does identify as a woman now whoops, I

1198
01:07:55,160 --> 01:08:01,000
Speaker 1: was a young person, I made a mistake, and she

1199
01:08:01,040 --> 01:08:05,400
Speaker 1: now identifies as a millionaire. And a statement from ASPS,

1200
01:08:06,800 --> 01:08:09,520
Speaker 1: they pointed to Finland, Sweden, and the United Kingdom, all

1201
01:08:09,600 --> 01:08:13,080
Speaker 1: of whom have upgraded their guidance to recommend against endocrine

1202
01:08:13,280 --> 01:08:16,800
Speaker 1: that will be the chemical component and surgical interventions for

1203
01:08:16,920 --> 01:08:23,360
Speaker 1: miners good going over to the American Medical Association, asked

1204
01:08:23,560 --> 01:08:29,599
Speaker 1: on Tuesday if they would update their stance. AMA, speaking

1205
01:08:29,640 --> 01:08:33,080
Speaker 1: with National Reviews, said that because the evidence for gender

1206
01:08:33,120 --> 01:08:36,880
Speaker 1: affirming surgical intervention in minors is insufficient for us to

1207
01:08:36,920 --> 01:08:41,360
Speaker 1: make a definitive statement, the AMA agrees with the ASPS

1208
01:08:41,360 --> 01:08:46,240
Speaker 1: that surgical interventions on miners should be generally deferred to adulthood.

1209
01:08:48,560 --> 01:08:52,400
Speaker 1: Ce you and I were right all along. Six fifty

01:09:45,040 --> 01:09:47,320

01:09:47,400 --> 01:09:51,880
Speaker 1: these things down, including uh, the three hundred million dollars

1230
01:09:51,880 --> 01:09:54,599
Speaker 1: in funding that the city got for pandemic relief. Wait

1231
01:09:54,640 --> 01:09:57,080
Speaker 1: to you here where that went and what's in store

1232
01:09:57,120 --> 01:10:00,600
Speaker 1: force in the future. We'll determine what's going on with

1233
01:10:00,640 --> 01:10:06,920
Speaker 1: the railroad money. Wow wow Cincinnati. Yes, they want another

1234
01:10:07,080 --> 01:10:10,680
Speaker 1: solar energy farm virtue signaling from the City of Cincinnati.

1235
01:10:10,680 --> 01:10:14,240
Speaker 1: And what is an emergency which the city uses for

1236
01:10:14,360 --> 01:10:18,120
Speaker 1: emergency ordinances? Todd Zinzer, You know, I say, just I'm

1237
01:10:18,120 --> 01:10:21,360
Speaker 1: gonna pick the solar panel. Can we can we go

1238
01:10:21,360 --> 01:10:25,280
Speaker 1: about this to start with, because they're all equally mind boggling, Yes,

1239
01:10:25,560 --> 01:10:28,760
Speaker 1: all right, the City of Cincinnati is it's this part

1240
01:10:28,800 --> 01:10:33,360
Speaker 1: of that green energy policy that they're pursuing, right, that's right. Okay,

1241
01:10:33,439 --> 01:10:35,080
Speaker 1: is this Do they have a date by which we're

1242
01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:37,960
Speaker 1: supposed to be carbon neutral or some other odd nonsense.

1243
01:10:38,720 --> 01:10:41,920
Speaker 2: The goal is to be carbon neutral and Cincinnati by

1244
01:10:42,040 --> 01:10:43,080
Speaker 2: twenty fifty.

1245
01:10:43,240 --> 01:10:46,280
Speaker 1: Okay, Now, just let me throw out there. Does anybody

1246
01:10:46,360 --> 01:10:49,439
Speaker 1: outside of the city limits in Hamilton County or Butler

1247
01:10:49,479 --> 01:10:53,920
Speaker 1: Warren Adams County, my friends in northern Kentucky, any of

1248
01:10:53,920 --> 01:10:56,400
Speaker 1: those folks striving to be carbon neutral by the same date,

1249
01:10:57,240 --> 01:10:58,920
Speaker 1: Not that I know of. We all breathe the same

1250
01:10:58,960 --> 01:11:02,840
Speaker 1: mayor does it kind of blow across areas? Okay? And

1251
01:11:03,160 --> 01:11:05,519
Speaker 1: we even get win from China, don't we in India

1252
01:11:05,560 --> 01:11:07,519
Speaker 1: and Turkey and other countries who don't even lift a

1253
01:11:07,600 --> 01:11:09,519
Speaker 1: finger to get carbon dioxide out of the plant off

1254
01:11:09,600 --> 01:11:10,520
Speaker 1: out of the atmosphere.

1255
01:11:10,680 --> 01:11:11,759
Speaker 2: As far as I know, it's.

1256
01:11:11,640 --> 01:11:14,519
Speaker 1: One big round globe, right, Okay, because I've heard those

1257
01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:20,639
Speaker 1: arguments made before. Okay, will this accomplish anything by way

1258
01:11:20,680 --> 01:11:25,200
Speaker 1: of global carbon dioxide reductions? Given the realities of what

1259
01:11:25,240 --> 01:11:27,760
Speaker 1: we just talked about. I know, I'm just asking sort

1260
01:11:27,760 --> 01:11:29,639
Speaker 1: of you know, rhetorical questions here, Todd.

1261
01:11:29,680 --> 01:11:34,000
Speaker 2: But yeah, if you read the city manager's January fourteenth memo,

1262
01:11:34,120 --> 01:11:39,360
Speaker 2: it is going to produced carbon neutrality by globally.

1263
01:11:40,040 --> 01:11:40,760
Speaker 1: Oh that's good.

1264
01:11:41,240 --> 01:11:42,880
Speaker 2: No, it's I think it's only going to be in

1265
01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:43,280
Speaker 2: a city.

1266
01:11:44,120 --> 01:11:46,200
Speaker 1: This is the dumb part about it. You got a

1267
01:11:46,240 --> 01:11:48,760
Speaker 1: finite number of dollars. Are we still thirty one? True?

1268
01:11:48,760 --> 01:11:50,839
Speaker 1: A million dollars in the hole in terms of our budget.

1269
01:11:50,920 --> 01:11:52,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's still the projected deficit.

1270
01:11:52,600 --> 01:11:54,600
Speaker 1: All right, so we have we are underwater, we have

1271
01:11:54,720 --> 01:11:59,000
Speaker 1: no extra money. And yet they're pursuing the building of

1272
01:11:59,040 --> 01:12:01,519
Speaker 1: a solar panel and they already have one, don't they.

1273
01:12:01,920 --> 01:12:02,439
Speaker 2: Yes, they do.

1274
01:12:02,560 --> 01:12:05,040
Speaker 1: Okay, let's walk through that one real quick. Rewind history.

1275
01:12:05,080 --> 01:12:08,479
Speaker 1: And the city of Cincinnati paid for a solar panel

1276
01:12:08,560 --> 01:12:09,360
Speaker 1: farm somewhere.

1277
01:12:09,840 --> 01:12:12,240
Speaker 2: Yes, it's it's out east a little ways. I forget

1278
01:12:12,240 --> 01:12:15,120
Speaker 2: which county it's in. It's called the new Market Solar Array,

1279
01:12:15,200 --> 01:12:16,880
Speaker 2: So it's new Market, Ohio, I think.

1280
01:12:17,640 --> 01:12:19,760
Speaker 1: And you've got a power line hooked up from out

1281
01:12:19,800 --> 01:12:20,559
Speaker 1: there into the city.

1282
01:12:20,840 --> 01:12:24,639
Speaker 2: Well that's interesting because and their proposal for the new

1283
01:12:24,720 --> 01:12:29,160
Speaker 2: solar array they say they already have a distribution network

1284
01:12:29,280 --> 01:12:31,400
Speaker 2: that exists there. So I don't know. I don't know

1285
01:12:31,439 --> 01:12:34,479
Speaker 2: what that is. But I don't either, I don't really

1286
01:12:34,520 --> 01:12:35,439
Speaker 2: know how it all works.

1287
01:12:35,479 --> 01:12:37,960
Speaker 1: Brian, Okay, look good, because if you don't know, I

1288
01:12:38,400 --> 01:12:41,120
Speaker 1: take great comfort in that because I truly consider you

1289
01:12:41,160 --> 01:12:44,240
Speaker 1: to be a brilliant man, and you've been demonstrably brilliant.

1290
01:12:44,680 --> 01:12:47,120
Speaker 1: So we got a solar panel array. Is there any

1291
01:12:47,160 --> 01:12:51,719
Speaker 1: information that's been produced that shows how much that solar

1292
01:12:51,720 --> 01:12:53,680
Speaker 1: panel array that we've already paid for, the one that

1293
01:12:53,680 --> 01:12:56,479
Speaker 1: you just mentioned, how much power generates, and whether there

1294
01:12:56,520 --> 01:12:58,559
Speaker 1: was the return on investment that I presume we were

1295
01:12:58,600 --> 01:12:59,280
Speaker 1: promised from it.

1296
01:12:59,560 --> 01:13:03,479
Speaker 2: Well, when this proposal was put on the agenda, I

1297
01:13:03,520 --> 01:13:07,920
Speaker 2: went ahead and looked for performance information for the existing

1298
01:13:08,479 --> 01:13:10,240
Speaker 2: solar panel array, which if.

1299
01:13:10,160 --> 01:13:12,920
Speaker 1: It worked, great, they'd be waving it around everywhere, wouldn't they.

1300
01:13:12,960 --> 01:13:14,920
Speaker 2: I would think, so, yeah, they're pretty good at that.

1301
01:13:15,040 --> 01:13:15,599
Speaker 1: Yeah they are.

1302
01:13:16,680 --> 01:13:20,880
Speaker 2: But my problem with the way this works, and this

1303
01:13:22,400 --> 01:13:25,559
Speaker 2: is also an emergency ordinance, which is a whole other issue.

1304
01:13:25,600 --> 01:13:28,280
Speaker 1: So we got to hurry up and build another solar

1305
01:13:28,360 --> 01:13:30,240
Speaker 1: array up panel? Yes, okay, okay.

1306
01:13:30,479 --> 01:13:36,360
Speaker 2: And I didn't see any information that the city council

1307
01:13:36,400 --> 01:13:40,080
Speaker 2: members relied on to make this decision. You have a memo,

1308
01:13:40,400 --> 01:13:43,759
Speaker 2: a two page memo from the from the city manager,

1309
01:13:44,520 --> 01:13:48,520
Speaker 2: and they were presented with a fifteen page PowerPoint presentation

1310
01:13:48,840 --> 01:13:53,439
Speaker 2: with a lot of photos and big print, and that

1311
01:13:53,439 --> 01:13:57,880
Speaker 2: that presentation I looked and that was from twenty twenty four,

1312
01:13:58,640 --> 01:14:02,280
Speaker 2: So that was that was pre he's ended before the

1313
01:14:02,280 --> 01:14:06,160
Speaker 2: federal government withheld a ten million dollar grand for the project.

1314
01:14:07,520 --> 01:14:10,519
Speaker 2: And so now rather than say, you know what, we're

1315
01:14:10,600 --> 01:14:13,360
Speaker 2: gonna wait and see what happens here, they're going to

1316
01:14:13,439 --> 01:14:16,920
Speaker 2: spend the city's own money to put that solarray panel

1317
01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:18,760
Speaker 2: to the tune of twelve million dollars.

1318
01:14:18,680 --> 01:14:22,120
Speaker 1: Right, a new solary And by the way, just tracker

1319
01:14:22,200 --> 01:14:24,920
Speaker 1: looked it up. New Market Solar array is in Highland County.

1320
01:14:24,960 --> 01:14:28,240
Speaker 1: He says, it's over near the Serpent Mound. Oh yeah, okay,

1321
01:14:28,479 --> 01:14:31,439
Speaker 1: it's up there, removed from the city limits and outside

1322
01:14:31,439 --> 01:14:37,120
Speaker 1: of the Hamilton County even yes, all right, So, with

1323
01:14:37,200 --> 01:14:39,880
Speaker 1: no information about whether that one works or even met

1324
01:14:39,920 --> 01:14:45,120
Speaker 1: the expectations, they're going to build another one. They were

1325
01:14:45,120 --> 01:14:48,080
Speaker 1: expecting federal grant money to cover the whole thing, basically

1326
01:14:48,160 --> 01:14:51,280
Speaker 1: so they could virtue signal without it costing anyone any

1327
01:14:51,520 --> 01:14:54,160
Speaker 1: money within the budget for it within the city's budget. Right,

1328
01:14:55,000 --> 01:14:59,040
Speaker 1: the plug got pulled on it for a multitude of reasons,

1329
01:14:59,280 --> 01:15:02,559
Speaker 1: most notably that they don't produce the electricity that they promise,

1330
01:15:02,600 --> 01:15:06,320
Speaker 1: and they are more expensive to build and operate, and

1331
01:15:06,400 --> 01:15:08,080
Speaker 1: yet the city is going to move forward in spite

1332
01:15:08,080 --> 01:15:10,000
Speaker 1: of the fact they got a thirty one million dollar

1333
01:15:10,080 --> 01:15:13,559
Speaker 1: hole to fill going forward, it's twelve million dollars.

1334
01:15:13,600 --> 01:15:15,400
Speaker 2: I think you had said, that's what the city has

1335
01:15:15,400 --> 01:15:18,320
Speaker 2: put aside now to spend on that. Yes, twelve million.

1336
01:15:18,920 --> 01:15:22,040
Speaker 1: And all for an objective that is like trying to

1337
01:15:22,120 --> 01:15:26,040
Speaker 1: chase your tail and the reduction of carbon dioxide by

1338
01:15:26,040 --> 01:15:27,880
Speaker 1: one city, as if it's going to have any impact

1339
01:15:27,960 --> 01:15:29,320
Speaker 1: on the globe at all whatsoever.

1340
01:15:29,479 --> 01:15:30,599
Speaker 2: Right, that's my perspective.

1341
01:15:30,640 --> 01:15:34,840
Speaker 1: Anyway, Okay, I'm having trouble making sense of how they

1342
01:15:34,920 --> 01:15:37,400
Speaker 1: can support moving forward this tot. I mean, come on,

1343
01:15:37,479 --> 01:15:39,960
Speaker 1: do we not have potholes that continue to need to

1344
01:15:40,000 --> 01:15:42,639
Speaker 1: be filled. Is there not infrastructure that is still crumbling?

1345
01:15:42,840 --> 01:15:44,639
Speaker 1: Are there not neighborhoods that are in need of law

1346
01:15:44,680 --> 01:15:47,960
Speaker 1: enforcement and maybe some street cameras or whatever we do

1347
01:15:48,040 --> 01:15:50,479
Speaker 1: to help improve neighborhoods and make communities safer.

1348
01:15:51,160 --> 01:15:53,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I went down to city Hall and

1349
01:15:54,280 --> 01:15:56,800
Speaker 2: claim my two minutes to talk to the council, and

1350
01:15:56,840 --> 01:15:58,960
Speaker 2: that's what I said. I said, don't you have better

1351
01:15:59,000 --> 01:16:01,640
Speaker 2: things to do? With twelve million dollars, I'd say a

1352
01:16:01,640 --> 01:16:02,280
Speaker 2: lot of money.

1353
01:16:02,360 --> 01:16:04,639
Speaker 1: But they're not obligated to answer your questions, are they.

1354
01:16:04,600 --> 01:16:06,320
Speaker 2: No, they don't. It's not a back and forth.

1355
01:16:06,439 --> 01:16:07,679
Speaker 1: So it's like talking to a wall.

1356
01:16:08,280 --> 01:16:08,400
Speaker 6: Uh.

1357
01:16:09,640 --> 01:16:10,719
Speaker 2: You could say that, yeah.

1358
01:16:10,720 --> 01:16:12,200
Speaker 1: Did you send them a letter or anything that would

1359
01:16:12,200 --> 01:16:14,240
Speaker 1: obligate them to follow up? I mean, I know they're

1360
01:16:14,280 --> 01:16:16,639
Speaker 1: freedom of information and actor questions and things of that nature,

1361
01:16:16,640 --> 01:16:19,479
Speaker 1: but you can't force them to answer a logical, reasonable question,

1362
01:16:19,600 --> 01:16:19,880
Speaker 1: can you.

1363
01:16:19,960 --> 01:16:22,479
Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't think I send a letter after after

1364
01:16:22,520 --> 01:16:25,519
Speaker 2: that two minutes, but I have sent letters in the

1365
01:16:25,560 --> 01:16:28,559
Speaker 2: past just to kind of confirm what I've said in

1366
01:16:28,600 --> 01:16:32,360
Speaker 2: my two minutes. I never get a response. They don't

1367
01:16:32,360 --> 01:16:35,639
Speaker 2: respond back, even though the council rules say they they

1368
01:16:35,680 --> 01:16:40,800
Speaker 2: should take these correspondent seriously and do their best to respond.

1369
01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:43,000
Speaker 2: I haven't brought that up to them one time.

1370
01:16:43,560 --> 01:16:48,080
Speaker 1: Well, Todd, I'm I'm struggling to find I mean, I

1371
01:16:48,120 --> 01:16:51,920
Speaker 1: can't see literally anything that the city's going to benefit

1372
01:16:51,960 --> 01:16:55,439
Speaker 1: from this at all. Well, I know there's I mean,

1373
01:16:55,479 --> 01:16:57,519
Speaker 1: there's some people that there's got to be a bunch

1374
01:16:57,520 --> 01:17:01,519
Speaker 1: of very far hardcore blue voters out there who live

1375
01:17:01,600 --> 01:17:03,640
Speaker 1: in one of these neighborhoods where they just believe that

1376
01:17:03,680 --> 01:17:05,599
Speaker 1: the Democrat answer is going to They're going to solve

1377
01:17:05,640 --> 01:17:07,240
Speaker 1: every problem in the neighborhood. Oh, we just got to

1378
01:17:07,280 --> 01:17:09,479
Speaker 1: vote for Democrats. They're gonna come over here and whatever

1379
01:17:09,560 --> 01:17:11,520
Speaker 1: they think is going to happen in any given neighborhood.

1380
01:17:12,760 --> 01:17:16,200
Speaker 1: Does anyone truly believe that those folks in those neighborhoods

1381
01:17:16,200 --> 01:17:19,800
Speaker 1: that need some attention put this on their priority list

1382
01:17:19,840 --> 01:17:22,320
Speaker 1: at all? In the top ten things that any person

1383
01:17:22,360 --> 01:17:24,000
Speaker 1: in any neighborhood in the fifty two in the city

1384
01:17:24,040 --> 01:17:26,680
Speaker 1: of Cincinnati got a list, what do you think the

1385
01:17:26,760 --> 01:17:30,400
Speaker 1: city should do here to make my life better? I

1386
01:17:30,520 --> 01:17:32,639
Speaker 1: garon Blanc and Tee. As I sit here, not one

1387
01:17:32,720 --> 01:17:35,200
Speaker 1: is going to say we need a solar panel farm.

1388
01:17:35,200 --> 01:17:38,160
Speaker 2: Right, No, it's it's it's definitely just dogma. You know

1389
01:17:38,240 --> 01:17:41,519
Speaker 2: that all this stuff about you know, carbon neutrality, and

1390
01:17:42,280 --> 01:17:45,639
Speaker 2: you know, may maybe it'll do some good. I don't know,

1391
01:17:45,680 --> 01:17:47,800
Speaker 2: but I don't think it's a very good business. It's

1392
01:17:48,040 --> 01:17:48,719
Speaker 2: business decision.

1393
01:17:48,840 --> 01:17:51,640
Speaker 1: It's going to do good for the solar panel manufacturers,

1394
01:17:51,920 --> 01:17:55,720
Speaker 1: which is ultimately China, the individuals who will be installing

1395
01:17:55,840 --> 01:17:58,800
Speaker 1: the solar panels, and the people who are left to

1396
01:17:58,880 --> 01:18:01,800
Speaker 1: maintain and upkeep the solar panels, which I spect will

1397
01:18:01,800 --> 01:18:03,599
Speaker 1: be a higher priority than the roads in the city

1398
01:18:03,600 --> 01:18:05,960
Speaker 1: of Cincinnati. We just got a foot of snow. We

1399
01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:09,400
Speaker 1: could go. I wonder what that panel farm up in

1400
01:18:09,479 --> 01:18:11,479
Speaker 1: Highland County look like? And did they have to hire

1401
01:18:11,520 --> 01:18:13,679
Speaker 1: people to shovel the snow off of the panels? Because

1402
01:18:13,720 --> 01:18:16,320
Speaker 1: I have to guess Todd, and I am a dumb man.

1403
01:18:16,400 --> 01:18:19,439
Speaker 1: I'll admit I'm not versed in matters of scientific or

1404
01:18:19,600 --> 01:18:23,200
Speaker 1: how solar panels or the sun transform. The sun is

1405
01:18:23,200 --> 01:18:26,479
Speaker 1: transformed into the flow of electricity, but as I sit here,

1406
01:18:26,479 --> 01:18:28,920
Speaker 1: I wanted to bet every single dime I have that

1407
01:18:29,000 --> 01:18:31,120
Speaker 1: if the solar panels covered by a foot of snow,

1408
01:18:31,200 --> 01:18:34,120
Speaker 1: it's not going to generate electricity seven to fifteen right now,

1409
01:18:34,120 --> 01:18:35,960
Speaker 1: if you have ker City Talk station, what do you

1410
01:18:36,040 --> 01:18:40,559
Speaker 1: hear what they did with the the talk station seven

1411
01:18:40,640 --> 01:18:43,840
Speaker 1: nineteen If you have ker City Talk Station. Brian Thomas

1412
01:18:43,880 --> 01:18:47,400
Speaker 1: was Citizen Watchdog. Todd Senser Citizen Watchdog the name of

1413
01:18:47,400 --> 01:18:50,439
Speaker 1: the podcast, and of course defines Todd's role a self

1414
01:18:50,439 --> 01:18:54,160
Speaker 1: appointed role in pointing out the batcrap insanity of the

1415
01:18:54,200 --> 01:18:56,800
Speaker 1: City of Cincinnati and its priorities. Okay, so we dealt

1416
01:18:56,840 --> 01:19:00,000
Speaker 1: with the epic epic fail that is the solar pane.

1417
01:19:00,520 --> 01:19:02,479
Speaker 1: Given the list of priorities we have in the city,

1418
01:19:03,040 --> 01:19:07,719
Speaker 1: God Almighty, let us pivot over to three hundred million

1419
01:19:07,800 --> 01:19:12,320
Speaker 1: dollars the city of Cincinnati received as a for pandemic relief.

1420
01:19:12,360 --> 01:19:15,639
Speaker 1: This is COVID nineteen money. This was episode forty five

1421
01:19:15,680 --> 01:19:19,160
Speaker 1: of Todd Zenzer's Citizen Watchdog. Find Citizen Watchdog and listen

1422
01:19:19,160 --> 01:19:20,600
Speaker 1: to what he has to say about it, which we

1423
01:19:20,640 --> 01:19:24,479
Speaker 1: will scratch the service of Right now, what was the

1424
01:19:24,520 --> 01:19:25,400
Speaker 1: money designed for?

1425
01:19:25,520 --> 01:19:25,760
Speaker 6: Todd?

1426
01:19:25,760 --> 01:19:27,559
Speaker 1: I've always been of the mindset that that was a

1427
01:19:27,960 --> 01:19:31,840
Speaker 1: sort of a nefarious way using COVID nineteen as an

1428
01:19:31,880 --> 01:19:36,160
Speaker 1: excuse to shovel massive millions of dollars to a lot

1429
01:19:36,200 --> 01:19:40,000
Speaker 1: of underwater leftist leaning cities like New York was having

1430
01:19:40,000 --> 01:19:43,080
Speaker 1: budget problems Los Angeles. Then you enter COVID, nobody's working.

1431
01:19:43,120 --> 01:19:46,200
Speaker 1: The problem gets worse. All the things that had already

1432
01:19:46,240 --> 01:19:48,160
Speaker 1: dug him into the hole got worse. So if we

1433
01:19:48,280 --> 01:19:50,200
Speaker 1: just throw all kinds of money at these cities, they

1434
01:19:50,200 --> 01:19:53,240
Speaker 1: can level their budgetary whole playing field and then maybe

1435
01:19:53,320 --> 01:19:56,519
Speaker 1: choose a better path and direction going forward. So we've

1436
01:19:56,600 --> 01:20:00,240
Speaker 1: reset things, we've started from scratch. You no longer our

1437
01:20:00,320 --> 01:20:04,400
Speaker 1: in financial peril because of your COVID nineteen money. So

1438
01:20:04,479 --> 01:20:06,320
Speaker 1: we were in a similar position, not as bad as

1439
01:20:06,320 --> 01:20:08,800
Speaker 1: in New York or Los Angeles or Chicago, but we

1440
01:20:08,840 --> 01:20:11,600
Speaker 1: had our budget problems going into COVID nineteen. So lo

1441
01:20:11,680 --> 01:20:13,720
Speaker 1: and behold how much? How many millions of dollars did

1442
01:20:13,760 --> 01:20:15,040
Speaker 1: we get in COVID nineteen money.

1443
01:20:15,680 --> 01:20:18,519
Speaker 2: Well, there's two different tranches. There's the first tranch was

1444
01:20:18,560 --> 01:20:21,120
Speaker 2: called the CARES Act, and that was under Trump and

1445
01:20:21,200 --> 01:20:25,400
Speaker 2: Trump's last year, right, and that was like the payroll

1446
01:20:25,439 --> 01:20:31,240
Speaker 2: Protection Plan. Everybody got us a check sometimes stimulus check.

1447
01:20:31,479 --> 01:20:36,599
Speaker 2: Fraught of that and different different things about immediate needs

1448
01:20:36,720 --> 01:20:39,400
Speaker 2: that the cities were going to suffer because of the

1449
01:20:39,400 --> 01:20:42,479
Speaker 2: they shut down commerce, et cetera. So that was the

1450
01:20:42,520 --> 01:20:46,639
Speaker 2: CARES Act. And then when Biden comes along, they passed

1451
01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:51,559
Speaker 2: the American Recovery Plan Act, and that put two point

1452
01:20:51,560 --> 01:20:57,160
Speaker 2: five trillion dollars into the economy, and about five hundred

1453
01:20:58,360 --> 01:21:02,680
Speaker 2: a billion of that was to the state and local governments.

1454
01:21:03,240 --> 01:21:06,400
Speaker 2: So that's the pool of money. And the city got

1455
01:21:06,479 --> 01:21:11,080
Speaker 2: about three hundred million dollars and two tranches, one in

1456
01:21:11,120 --> 01:21:14,320
Speaker 2: twenty twenty two and one in twenty three, and so

1457
01:21:15,600 --> 01:21:19,479
Speaker 2: they had until December of twenty four to obligate it all,

1458
01:21:19,600 --> 01:21:22,120
Speaker 2: which they've done. They've obligated one hundred percent of it

1459
01:21:22,160 --> 01:21:25,519
Speaker 2: from what I can tell, and they claim I'm trying

1460
01:21:25,520 --> 01:21:28,840
Speaker 2: to figure out how much they have left. It's very difficult,

1461
01:21:29,840 --> 01:21:33,439
Speaker 2: and I'll get into that, I guess, but I think

1462
01:21:33,479 --> 01:21:37,599
Speaker 2: they have about twenty five to thirty million dollars left

1463
01:21:37,760 --> 01:21:43,440
Speaker 2: to spend. But what they did is the Treasury Department

1464
01:21:43,760 --> 01:21:48,280
Speaker 2: let the cities put their funds in four different groups,

1465
01:21:49,400 --> 01:21:54,040
Speaker 2: and each group had different levels of kind of accountability.

1466
01:21:54,400 --> 01:21:56,520
Speaker 1: So here we go the cities.

1467
01:21:57,160 --> 01:22:00,760
Speaker 2: The city decided to put two hundred and it got

1468
01:22:00,760 --> 01:22:04,479
Speaker 2: three two hundred and eighty million dollars. Let's say they

1469
01:22:04,479 --> 01:22:07,360
Speaker 2: put two hundred and forty million of that into what's

1470
01:22:07,400 --> 01:22:13,040
Speaker 2: called revenue replacement. And revenue replacement is this catch all category.

1471
01:22:13,920 --> 01:22:16,920
Speaker 2: And as a result of that, they the city announced

1472
01:22:16,960 --> 01:22:20,600
Speaker 2: in their twenty twenty five report to the Treasury Department

1473
01:22:21,439 --> 01:22:29,840
Speaker 2: that they had created sixty new programs in contract signings.

1474
01:22:30,560 --> 01:22:32,280
Speaker 1: We're talking NGOs here, aren't we.

1475
01:22:32,520 --> 01:22:38,439
Speaker 2: Absolutely that's sixty new ones, sixty new programs. So when

1476
01:22:38,520 --> 01:22:42,040
Speaker 2: I when you look at it. So I went to

1477
01:22:42,080 --> 01:22:45,680
Speaker 2: their financial statements to see, okay, how did what was

1478
01:22:45,680 --> 01:22:49,720
Speaker 2: the increase in revenue during those years? And what I

1479
01:22:49,760 --> 01:22:52,360
Speaker 2: looked at. What I looked at was the grants. What

1480
01:22:53,000 --> 01:22:55,599
Speaker 2: was the level of federal grants that the city received

1481
01:22:55,640 --> 01:23:00,599
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty two versus twenty nineteen before or COVID

1482
01:23:01,120 --> 01:23:05,920
Speaker 2: twenty nineteen, the city got forty four million dollars in grants.

1483
01:23:06,479 --> 01:23:09,519
Speaker 2: In twenty twenty one with this COVID money, they got

1484
01:23:09,560 --> 01:23:13,400
Speaker 2: one hundred and ninety eight million dollars, and then the

1485
01:23:13,439 --> 01:23:16,559
Speaker 2: following year they got one hundred and seventy one million dollars.

1486
01:23:16,640 --> 01:23:19,559
Speaker 2: So each year they got between one hundred and twenty

1487
01:23:19,600 --> 01:23:22,800
Speaker 2: and one hundred and fifty million dollars more than what

1488
01:23:22,880 --> 01:23:27,480
Speaker 2: they had received prior to COVID. And you see programs

1489
01:23:27,560 --> 01:23:32,840
Speaker 2: like an Act for Sincey, the Financial Freedom Blueprint, which

1490
01:23:32,880 --> 01:23:38,439
Speaker 2: has all these different programs to help the underserved. You

1491
01:23:38,560 --> 01:23:42,240
Speaker 2: have the Green Cincinnati Plan. All of that appears to

1492
01:23:42,280 --> 01:23:46,519
Speaker 2: have been funded by this COVID money that the city received.

1493
01:23:47,000 --> 01:23:51,840
Speaker 1: Well, it's a finite number of dollars. It's COVID related.

1494
01:23:51,920 --> 01:23:54,920
Speaker 1: COVID's gone. We're not getting any more big piles of

1495
01:23:54,920 --> 01:23:58,479
Speaker 1: money from the federal government. So that means, right, Todd Zensert,

1496
01:23:58,479 --> 01:24:01,080
Speaker 1: that all of these plans that were funded by that

1497
01:24:01,120 --> 01:24:05,479
Speaker 1: short term injection or infusion of cash won't be funded

1498
01:24:05,520 --> 01:24:08,240
Speaker 1: going forward. They'll have to close shop and go away, right,

1499
01:24:08,320 --> 01:24:11,040
Speaker 1: I mean, isn't that the normal course of matters, Toddzenzer?

1500
01:24:11,160 --> 01:24:11,280
Speaker 6: Right?

1501
01:24:12,120 --> 01:24:15,360
Speaker 2: What happened is they took these one time pots of

1502
01:24:15,400 --> 01:24:20,800
Speaker 2: money and they established continuing programs with that instead of

1503
01:24:20,840 --> 01:24:21,719
Speaker 2: one time uses.

1504
01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:23,760
Speaker 1: I knew the answered My question was no, No, They're

1505
01:24:23,760 --> 01:24:27,320
Speaker 1: going to continue. So I guess the other weird thing

1506
01:24:27,360 --> 01:24:30,519
Speaker 1: about this are you telling me that at the time

1507
01:24:30,560 --> 01:24:34,800
Speaker 1: these sixty new grant programs were set up, that there

1508
01:24:34,840 --> 01:24:37,360
Speaker 1: was no other prior program that was out there that

1509
01:24:37,479 --> 01:24:41,360
Speaker 1: was designed to serve whatever need they identified? Well, these

1510
01:24:41,400 --> 01:24:44,120
Speaker 1: outstanding needs had existed for such a long time and

1511
01:24:44,200 --> 01:24:50,240
Speaker 1: were finally getting around to them sixty different NGOs. Right, Well,

1512
01:24:50,360 --> 01:24:52,599
Speaker 1: I can't say that, because of course the SEC would

1513
01:24:52,640 --> 01:24:53,439
Speaker 1: not be happy with me.

1514
01:24:53,720 --> 01:24:57,080
Speaker 2: Well, because of the way that the city decided to

1515
01:24:57,120 --> 01:25:02,439
Speaker 2: categorize these these moneies, what they spent it on. You

1516
01:25:02,520 --> 01:25:05,160
Speaker 2: have to keep digging down and down, and yeah, you

1517
01:25:05,160 --> 01:25:08,240
Speaker 2: would actually have to get and I will probably do

1518
01:25:08,320 --> 01:25:12,679
Speaker 2: that you try to get the ledger accounts to see

1519
01:25:12,840 --> 01:25:17,439
Speaker 2: exactly who got the checks. There's some high level groups

1520
01:25:17,439 --> 01:25:21,439
Speaker 2: that are announced that received like the Urban League got

1521
01:25:21,439 --> 01:25:26,760
Speaker 2: one hundred and got one point five million, y WCA

1522
01:25:26,800 --> 01:25:29,080
Speaker 2: got money. I mean, the list goes on and on,

1523
01:25:29,520 --> 01:25:31,599
Speaker 2: but you don't really know what they used it for

1524
01:25:31,880 --> 01:25:35,200
Speaker 2: and how how did the city decide which group gets

1525
01:25:35,240 --> 01:25:37,479
Speaker 2: which money? That is all still behind the curtain.

1526
01:25:37,760 --> 01:25:41,080
Speaker 1: Oh my word. We have more a full hour of

1527
01:25:41,080 --> 01:25:43,320
Speaker 1: this with Citizen Watchdog Todds ins or. I don't know

1528
01:25:43,360 --> 01:25:45,639
Speaker 1: if I can say it only gets worse, but will

1529
01:25:45,720 --> 01:25:51,960
Speaker 1: continue on the perilous path that we're on Station Krcity

1530
01:25:52,040 --> 01:25:55,280
Speaker 1: Talk Station Brian Thalmas, citizen with Citizen Watchdog, Former Inspector

1531
01:25:55,320 --> 01:25:57,519
Speaker 1: General for the United States Todds Ends are going through

1532
01:25:57,520 --> 01:25:59,120
Speaker 1: some of the issues in the city, Sin say that

1533
01:25:59,160 --> 01:26:03,240
Speaker 1: you saw figured out and we were still talking about

1534
01:26:03,240 --> 01:26:05,360
Speaker 1: this three hundred roughly three hundred million dollars in COVID

1535
01:26:05,439 --> 01:26:08,559
Speaker 1: nineteen money, some of which or a large chunk of

1536
01:26:08,600 --> 01:26:13,840
Speaker 1: which allocated to sixty brand new non governmental organization programs

1537
01:26:14,320 --> 01:26:17,280
Speaker 1: which will will necessarily have to be funded on an

1538
01:26:17,360 --> 01:26:21,439
Speaker 1: ongoing basis going forward. Not that we have any idea

1539
01:26:21,600 --> 01:26:24,479
Speaker 1: what the money is actually being used for it even if,

1540
01:26:24,520 --> 01:26:26,360
Speaker 1: as you pointed out as we were into the break,

1541
01:26:27,040 --> 01:26:29,519
Speaker 1: the YMCA is getting some on its face like, well,

1542
01:26:29,560 --> 01:26:31,800
Speaker 1: who can argue with govern some money to the YMCA

1543
01:26:31,800 --> 01:26:34,439
Speaker 1: that helps the community and provides place for activities and

1544
01:26:34,439 --> 01:26:37,600
Speaker 1: breah blah blah, But we don't know what the YMCA

1545
01:26:37,640 --> 01:26:40,000
Speaker 1: did with the money. And that's the problem that extends

1546
01:26:40,040 --> 01:26:42,080
Speaker 1: throughout all of these grants. And this is not just

1547
01:26:42,160 --> 01:26:44,479
Speaker 1: a Cincinnati problem, folks. And one of the beautiful things

1548
01:26:44,479 --> 01:26:46,680
Speaker 1: we can point to the city of Cincinnati because it's

1549
01:26:46,760 --> 01:26:49,720
Speaker 1: relative to my local listeners, even folks who don't live

1550
01:26:49,720 --> 01:26:53,599
Speaker 1: in it. But this is illustrative of the national plague

1551
01:26:53,640 --> 01:26:56,479
Speaker 1: we've got going on with non governmental organizations getting our

1552
01:26:56,520 --> 01:26:57,479
Speaker 1: taxpayer dollars.

1553
01:26:57,600 --> 01:27:00,000
Speaker 2: That's definitely correct, no question about it.

1554
01:27:00,200 --> 01:27:02,320
Speaker 1: I'd love to see what the Democrat Party would look like,

1555
01:27:02,439 --> 01:27:04,719
Speaker 1: or even the Republicans the extent they're involved in any

1556
01:27:04,760 --> 01:27:07,719
Speaker 1: of this. If you could just magically waive the wand

1557
01:27:07,800 --> 01:27:14,320
Speaker 1: and eliminate all fraud in any program. That's not to

1558
01:27:14,360 --> 01:27:17,040
Speaker 1: take all the money away from all the programs, because

1559
01:27:17,080 --> 01:27:19,919
Speaker 1: there may be some that are actually accomplishing what they promised.

1560
01:27:19,920 --> 01:27:21,920
Speaker 1: To accomplish if we knew what they were doing with

1561
01:27:21,960 --> 01:27:24,280
Speaker 1: the money. But just the ones that are taking the

1562
01:27:24,320 --> 01:27:26,519
Speaker 1: money and sending it to political campaigns, or lining their

1563
01:27:26,520 --> 01:27:29,840
Speaker 1: own pockets or paying themselves handsome salaries, you know, making

1564
01:27:29,920 --> 01:27:32,240
Speaker 1: six figure salaries that work because I work for a

1565
01:27:32,280 --> 01:27:35,920
Speaker 1: nonprofit work, that would be an amazing thing to but hold.

1566
01:27:35,920 --> 01:27:37,599
Speaker 1: It would also be interesting to see how the Democrat

1567
01:27:37,640 --> 01:27:39,519
Speaker 1: Party would do by way of funding if all that

1568
01:27:39,560 --> 01:27:42,720
Speaker 1: fraud money disappeared. Anyway, Todd, you had something more to

1569
01:27:42,760 --> 01:27:45,679
Speaker 1: say about this three hundred million dollars in COVID money.

1570
01:27:46,040 --> 01:27:48,519
Speaker 2: Well, the reason I went back and looked at the

1571
01:27:48,560 --> 01:27:51,800
Speaker 2: COVID money and was because of the noise coming out

1572
01:27:51,800 --> 01:27:56,960
Speaker 2: of City Hall that they want to raise the arnings tax. Yeah,

1573
01:27:57,120 --> 01:28:00,160
Speaker 2: and when I look at their books, they got a

1574
01:28:00,200 --> 01:28:04,720
Speaker 2: lot of money. And if they try to use the

1575
01:28:04,800 --> 01:28:08,800
Speaker 2: loss of COVID money as a reason to increase the

1576
01:28:08,840 --> 01:28:11,759
Speaker 2: earnings tax, that would not be honest.

1577
01:28:11,920 --> 01:28:14,719
Speaker 1: No, it would not be honest. Todd. You don't really

1578
01:28:14,760 --> 01:28:17,040
Speaker 1: truly expect honesty from this administration, do you.

1579
01:28:17,560 --> 01:28:24,160
Speaker 2: Well, Unfortunately, it's really hard to understand exactly what the

1580
01:28:24,200 --> 01:28:27,520
Speaker 2: city is doing all the time. Well, they're not transparent

1581
01:28:27,560 --> 01:28:28,160
Speaker 2: I can tell you.

1582
01:28:28,120 --> 01:28:32,600
Speaker 1: That they're not. They hide information that should be readily available,

1583
01:28:33,640 --> 01:28:38,320
Speaker 1: which leads you, notably and in expert capacity to speculate,

1584
01:28:38,360 --> 01:28:40,240
Speaker 1: and folks like me who don't have that level of

1585
01:28:40,280 --> 01:28:43,160
Speaker 1: knowledge to speculate and go down some tangent like, oh

1586
01:28:43,160 --> 01:28:45,400
Speaker 1: my god, this is truly nefarious. And we can come

1587
01:28:45,439 --> 01:28:47,160
Speaker 1: up with a million different ways about why this is

1588
01:28:47,240 --> 01:28:50,439
Speaker 1: just outright wrong, if not make a good argument that

1589
01:28:50,520 --> 01:28:51,519
Speaker 1: it could be even criminal.

1590
01:28:52,720 --> 01:28:55,720
Speaker 2: Well, the thing that really bothers me is that the

1591
01:28:55,800 --> 01:29:00,600
Speaker 2: city council has no interest in oversight of the city administration.

1592
01:29:01,160 --> 01:29:04,080
Speaker 2: They just go right along and that's all.

1593
01:29:04,439 --> 01:29:07,280
Speaker 1: It's a part time job, Todd. You can't be expected

1594
01:29:07,320 --> 01:29:09,759
Speaker 1: to mind the store when it's a part time job.

1595
01:29:10,000 --> 01:29:13,840
Speaker 2: Well, they're not even curious. And that's what really bothers me.

1596
01:29:13,960 --> 01:29:16,880
Speaker 2: Like on the solar array or on some of this

1597
01:29:17,040 --> 01:29:20,400
Speaker 2: COVID money, they just go right along with whatever the

1598
01:29:20,400 --> 01:29:22,040
Speaker 2: mayor and the administration want to do.

1599
01:29:22,560 --> 01:29:24,960
Speaker 1: Yes, they do, you know, on that solarray. We're going

1600
01:29:25,000 --> 01:29:27,880
Speaker 1: back to the whole just how epic stupid it is

1601
01:29:27,920 --> 01:29:30,360
Speaker 1: to think that carbon neutrality in the city of Cincinnati

1602
01:29:30,400 --> 01:29:32,240
Speaker 1: is somehow going to benefit the globe or even the

1603
01:29:32,280 --> 01:29:34,920
Speaker 1: city itself. I was joking with Todd over the break,

1604
01:29:34,920 --> 01:29:37,000
Speaker 1: I seeing we should do just let's take all this

1605
01:29:37,080 --> 01:29:40,040
Speaker 1: money and buy a giant dome, big glass dome, and

1606
01:29:40,080 --> 01:29:42,680
Speaker 1: put it over the city of Cincinnati. All fifty neighborhoods

1607
01:29:42,760 --> 01:29:47,440
Speaker 1: vacuum seal it, of course, provide them with fresh carbon dioxide,

1608
01:29:47,520 --> 01:29:50,680
Speaker 1: free oxygen, and see how long it takes for all

1609
01:29:50,720 --> 01:29:57,400
Speaker 1: the plants to die. Seven five. We're not done. The

1610
01:29:57,479 --> 01:30:00,840
Speaker 1: list has not been exhausted. The budget money in the

1611
01:30:00,840 --> 01:30:06,400
Speaker 1: city of Cincinnati. We'll talk about station seven thirty nine.

1612
01:30:06,439 --> 01:30:09,080
Speaker 1: If you bought KCD talk station. Congressman David Taylor after

1613
01:30:09,080 --> 01:30:12,400
Speaker 1: the top of the art is in the meantime, City

1614
01:30:12,439 --> 01:30:14,360
Speaker 1: of Cincinnati. They don't realize how blessed they are to

1615
01:30:14,439 --> 01:30:17,280
Speaker 1: have Todd Zens or citizen watchdog, former Inspector General looking

1616
01:30:17,320 --> 01:30:19,920
Speaker 1: at these records and trying to find out answers to questions.

1617
01:30:20,000 --> 01:30:23,000
Speaker 1: It seemed very perplexing. A lot of that topic so

1618
01:30:23,040 --> 01:30:27,960
Speaker 1: far this morning. The solar panel, insulation batcraft stupid and crazy.

1619
01:30:28,000 --> 01:30:30,160
Speaker 1: The three hundred million dollars in funding received from the

1620
01:30:31,200 --> 01:30:34,120
Speaker 1: pandemic relief that's now we find it's gone to fund

1621
01:30:34,280 --> 01:30:38,760
Speaker 1: sixty non governmental organizations resulting in the city taxpayers maybe

1622
01:30:38,800 --> 01:30:44,920
Speaker 1: having to have their taxes increased, crazy, inexplicable, probably corrupt. Now,

1623
01:30:45,040 --> 01:30:48,560
Speaker 1: let's pivot over to the railroad money. Toddsenser sold the

1624
01:30:48,640 --> 01:30:51,640
Speaker 1: railroad for one point whatever billion dollars money putt into

1625
01:30:51,640 --> 01:30:54,200
Speaker 1: trust fund. Interest generated is supposed to be handed over

1626
01:30:54,240 --> 01:30:57,280
Speaker 1: to the City of Cincinnati to help our work on

1627
01:30:57,680 --> 01:31:03,160
Speaker 1: existing infrastructure projects. I know there's some question marks swirling

1628
01:31:03,200 --> 01:31:06,559
Speaker 1: around what is actually started by way of projects, what

1629
01:31:06,640 --> 01:31:09,320
Speaker 1: have they done with the money, what's been allocated. There's

1630
01:31:09,360 --> 01:31:14,000
Speaker 1: these complicating layers on it. But we find out now

1631
01:31:14,840 --> 01:31:19,639
Speaker 1: after you investigate that level that there's another layl level

1632
01:31:20,120 --> 01:31:24,000
Speaker 1: of well I ou't of his duplicity or but really

1633
01:31:24,360 --> 01:31:28,440
Speaker 1: swirling question marks. Let my listeners know what you discovered.

1634
01:31:28,560 --> 01:31:34,000
Speaker 2: Todd Zenzer, Well, do you remember before Christmas, Local twelve

1635
01:31:34,760 --> 01:31:37,479
Speaker 2: ran a report about how the city was unable to

1636
01:31:37,720 --> 01:31:42,240
Speaker 2: use their railway money on infrastructure projects that they had

1637
01:31:42,280 --> 01:31:46,800
Speaker 2: only spent like six percent of the tranch that the

1638
01:31:46,800 --> 01:31:47,800
Speaker 2: board had sent over.

1639
01:31:47,960 --> 01:31:50,120
Speaker 1: This was the interest generated and how much money had

1640
01:31:50,120 --> 01:31:53,280
Speaker 1: they sent over roughly was tens of millions of dollars right.

1641
01:31:53,280 --> 01:31:56,360
Speaker 2: Well, the annual amount that they agreed to send to

1642
01:31:56,400 --> 01:32:00,320
Speaker 2: the city for this year was fifty six million. Were

1643
01:32:00,600 --> 01:32:03,240
Speaker 2: they were putting that or sending that to the city

1644
01:32:03,320 --> 01:32:07,800
Speaker 2: in four different tranches, So I'm not sure exactly how

1645
01:32:07,880 --> 01:32:12,640
Speaker 2: much they sent. But the Local twelve report generated a

1646
01:32:12,640 --> 01:32:17,320
Speaker 2: lot of controversy, and the city council asked.

1647
01:32:17,160 --> 01:32:20,519
Speaker 1: Because we don't see any projects starting, right, that's right,

1648
01:32:20,600 --> 01:32:22,400
Speaker 1: they got them. We know they got the money. The

1649
01:32:22,479 --> 01:32:24,320
Speaker 1: Railroad board said, we gave them the money. We know

1650
01:32:24,320 --> 01:32:27,280
Speaker 1: it's in the fifty million dollar range. So that local

1651
01:32:27,320 --> 01:32:29,680
Speaker 1: news says, where did it go? We're not seeing it

1652
01:32:29,720 --> 01:32:32,160
Speaker 1: and getting done here, and this is the that results

1653
01:32:32,160 --> 01:32:33,000
Speaker 1: in right.

1654
01:32:33,120 --> 01:32:35,720
Speaker 2: So after that report, I sent a letter to the

1655
01:32:35,760 --> 01:32:39,360
Speaker 2: board to make sure they saw the Local twelve report.

1656
01:32:39,439 --> 01:32:42,519
Speaker 2: I put a hyperlink in it, and I reminded them

1657
01:32:42,560 --> 01:32:45,960
Speaker 2: that in February of last year, in twenty twenty five,

1658
01:32:46,720 --> 01:32:49,960
Speaker 2: I went to their board meeting and I alerted them

1659
01:32:50,400 --> 01:32:53,280
Speaker 2: that the city was does not have the capacity to

1660
01:32:53,320 --> 01:32:56,200
Speaker 2: spend that money, and they need to figure out what

1661
01:32:56,320 --> 01:32:59,479
Speaker 2: they're going to do if the city, you know, doesn't

1662
01:32:59,479 --> 01:33:02,760
Speaker 2: spend the money. And what's happened is we found that

1663
01:33:03,240 --> 01:33:04,519
Speaker 2: what the what.

1664
01:33:04,479 --> 01:33:06,800
Speaker 1: The board is going to do the city doesn't spend

1665
01:33:06,840 --> 01:33:09,080
Speaker 1: the money, right, because they gave it in good faith

1666
01:33:09,120 --> 01:33:11,160
Speaker 1: to the city based upon I guess a list of

1667
01:33:11,160 --> 01:33:12,720
Speaker 1: projects that the cell told them.

1668
01:33:12,760 --> 01:33:14,960
Speaker 2: They followed the law. The law tells them they have

1669
01:33:15,000 --> 01:33:18,080
Speaker 2: to give them so much, and then they decide how

1670
01:33:18,160 --> 01:33:19,200
Speaker 2: much more to give them.

1671
01:33:19,320 --> 01:33:20,280
Speaker 1: Oh okay, So.

1672
01:33:22,160 --> 01:33:25,360
Speaker 2: I lost my train of thought here when so.

1673
01:33:25,360 --> 01:33:27,240
Speaker 1: You alert the board that the money went over but

1674
01:33:27,280 --> 01:33:29,400
Speaker 1: there's no you can't account for what it was, right.

1675
01:33:30,000 --> 01:33:33,320
Speaker 2: So the board actually sent a letter to the city

1676
01:33:33,400 --> 01:33:38,080
Speaker 2: apparently I haven't seen it, but and the finance director

1677
01:33:38,120 --> 01:33:41,439
Speaker 2: wrote back to the board and told them that, well,

1678
01:33:41,880 --> 01:33:43,680
Speaker 2: if we can't use it, we put it in our

1679
01:33:43,720 --> 01:33:44,679
Speaker 2: investment account.

1680
01:33:45,880 --> 01:33:49,000
Speaker 1: So they city has opened a separate investment account.

1681
01:33:49,040 --> 01:33:52,160
Speaker 2: Well, they have an investment account. Oh, oh, existing one,

1682
01:33:52,280 --> 01:33:55,240
Speaker 2: and the investment account has one point six billion dollars

1683
01:33:55,240 --> 01:33:58,519
Speaker 2: of its own in there. And so they're taking railway

1684
01:33:58,560 --> 01:34:01,560
Speaker 2: money that they can't spend and they're putting it in

1685
01:34:01,640 --> 01:34:04,519
Speaker 2: there in their own investment account on top of their

1686
01:34:04,560 --> 01:34:08,840
Speaker 2: existing investments, and they're you know, that's adding to their

1687
01:34:08,880 --> 01:34:10,599
Speaker 2: earnings from that investment account.

1688
01:34:10,680 --> 01:34:15,040
Speaker 1: And those earnings are not restricted to existing infrastructure, are they?

1689
01:34:15,080 --> 01:34:16,040
Speaker 1: Todd Zenzer right?

1690
01:34:16,080 --> 01:34:18,240
Speaker 2: If you were, Let's say that money's.

1691
01:34:17,920 --> 01:34:20,479
Speaker 1: A way to get around the existing infrastructure limit to

1692
01:34:20,520 --> 01:34:22,960
Speaker 1: the to the railroad money. Todd, can I just state

1693
01:34:22,960 --> 01:34:25,439
Speaker 1: that out loud? I mean, I right, Yeah, you have to.

1694
01:34:25,560 --> 01:34:28,439
Speaker 2: You have to. We don't know yet. Apparently the city

1695
01:34:28,520 --> 01:34:30,200
Speaker 2: is going to go to the meeting next week in

1696
01:34:30,240 --> 01:34:32,200
Speaker 2: front of the board and hopefully they're going to explain

1697
01:34:32,240 --> 01:34:34,960
Speaker 2: all this. But that's exactly what it looks like. And

1698
01:34:35,040 --> 01:34:39,000
Speaker 2: let's say that money, that that millions of dollars was stolen, Well,

1699
01:34:39,040 --> 01:34:42,360
Speaker 2: putting it into an account like that washes it so

1700
01:34:42,439 --> 01:34:45,080
Speaker 2: you can't really trace it. And that's really what's happening here,

1701
01:34:45,160 --> 01:34:49,040
Speaker 2: is that they have washed the money of the railway

1702
01:34:49,479 --> 01:34:54,040
Speaker 2: color and now it's Cincinnati money. And that wasn't the

1703
01:34:54,040 --> 01:34:56,240
Speaker 2: intent of the law when it was when they passed

1704
01:34:56,280 --> 01:34:56,559
Speaker 2: the law.

1705
01:34:56,640 --> 01:34:57,960
Speaker 1: And given that it was not the intent of the

1706
01:34:58,040 --> 01:35:00,960
Speaker 1: law and it violates the clear intent of the law,

1707
01:35:01,520 --> 01:35:03,360
Speaker 1: is there any way that an illegal action could be

1708
01:35:03,360 --> 01:35:05,840
Speaker 1: filed on the board could otherwise claw that money back

1709
01:35:05,920 --> 01:35:07,560
Speaker 1: and say, hey, we shouldn't have sent it to you

1710
01:35:07,560 --> 01:35:09,240
Speaker 1: in the first place. Look at what you're doing. You're

1711
01:35:09,240 --> 01:35:11,400
Speaker 1: investing it in your own investment account, and you're taking

1712
01:35:11,439 --> 01:35:13,000
Speaker 1: away the limitations on its use.

1713
01:35:13,439 --> 01:35:15,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they either need to try to do

1714
01:35:15,320 --> 01:35:17,439
Speaker 2: that or make clear that they're not going to be

1715
01:35:17,600 --> 01:35:20,120
Speaker 2: sending tranches of money like that to the city anymore.

1716
01:35:20,160 --> 01:35:22,880
Speaker 2: And then what I'm proposing is that the board use

1717
01:35:22,920 --> 01:35:25,920
Speaker 2: a drawdown system where when the city needs the money

1718
01:35:25,920 --> 01:35:28,680
Speaker 2: because they have a bill pending for some work, that

1719
01:35:28,720 --> 01:35:30,680
Speaker 2: they come to the board and they draw down the

1720
01:35:30,680 --> 01:35:33,200
Speaker 2: money that they need. That's how that's how most of

1721
01:35:33,280 --> 01:35:36,599
Speaker 2: these infrastructure accounts operate.

1722
01:35:37,720 --> 01:35:39,639
Speaker 1: Sounds to me like the only way they should operate.

1723
01:35:39,880 --> 01:35:43,439
Speaker 1: This is just I still can't get over that is

1724
01:35:43,520 --> 01:35:43,960
Speaker 1: going on.

1725
01:35:44,040 --> 01:35:44,240
Speaker 7: Tot.

1726
01:35:44,360 --> 01:35:47,040
Speaker 2: I sent a letter to them again last night reminding

1727
01:35:47,080 --> 01:35:52,479
Speaker 2: them again and reasserting my recommendation.

1728
01:35:52,240 --> 01:35:55,120
Speaker 1: To the board or to counsel to the board. To

1729
01:35:55,160 --> 01:35:57,600
Speaker 1: the board, yes, to the well, at least the board

1730
01:35:58,000 --> 01:36:00,800
Speaker 1: gets the attention to council, and council or the mayor

1731
01:36:00,920 --> 01:36:03,160
Speaker 1: or maybe the city manager at least has to respond

1732
01:36:03,160 --> 01:36:05,400
Speaker 1: to the board. They are responding to have to respond

1733
01:36:05,400 --> 01:36:06,080
Speaker 1: to Todd Zinzer.

1734
01:36:06,200 --> 01:36:07,960
Speaker 2: That's right, they are responding to the board.

1735
01:36:08,520 --> 01:36:19,200
Speaker 1: See, that's why we have Todd the talk station five KRC,

1736
01:36:19,520 --> 01:36:23,800
Speaker 1: the talk station Happy Friday e Right Time was here

1737
01:36:23,800 --> 01:36:26,840
Speaker 1: with Citizen Watchdog Todd's zinser again. You know, he dives

1738
01:36:26,880 --> 01:36:28,680
Speaker 1: in even more in depth in his podcasts and some

1739
01:36:28,720 --> 01:36:30,600
Speaker 1: of the topics we're talking about this morning, all of

1740
01:36:30,640 --> 01:36:34,680
Speaker 1: which just spell I mean grave concern from my perspective

1741
01:36:34,680 --> 01:36:38,439
Speaker 1: about the existence of well, lack of oversight, perhaps fraud

1742
01:36:38,479 --> 01:36:41,280
Speaker 1: and corruption. All I know is you can't follow the

1743
01:36:41,360 --> 01:36:43,960
Speaker 1: money anywhere in the city of Cincinnati. And that last

1744
01:36:43,960 --> 01:36:46,120
Speaker 1: little insight about the city getting the railroad money then

1745
01:36:46,160 --> 01:36:49,960
Speaker 1: parking in its own investment account. Man, somebody's got to

1746
01:36:49,960 --> 01:36:52,160
Speaker 1: do something about that. So Todd's on the job on that.

1747
01:36:52,200 --> 01:36:54,280
Speaker 1: We'll see what the Railroad board does. But pivoting back,

1748
01:36:54,320 --> 01:36:56,960
Speaker 1: we started out this morning the laughable concept of the

1749
01:36:56,960 --> 01:37:00,000
Speaker 1: city buying and paying for out of the general fund

1750
01:37:00,040 --> 01:37:02,639
Speaker 1: since the federal dollars aren't there anymore. This new solar

1751
01:37:02,720 --> 01:37:05,360
Speaker 1: panel farm wherever they're planning on building it, it's a

1752
01:37:05,400 --> 01:37:08,519
Speaker 1: preposterous notion anyway, It's a pointless gesture in the name

1753
01:37:08,560 --> 01:37:15,880
Speaker 1: of virtue signaling. But you mentioned that it was pursuant

1754
01:37:16,000 --> 01:37:21,840
Speaker 1: to an emergency declaration. Right now, the power hasn't gone

1755
01:37:21,840 --> 01:37:25,280
Speaker 1: out in the city. The panels aren't gonna keep the

1756
01:37:25,360 --> 01:37:28,880
Speaker 1: lights on really under any given circumstance demonstrably failures in

1757
01:37:28,960 --> 01:37:33,000
Speaker 1: terms of reliable energy supply. So how is this building

1758
01:37:33,200 --> 01:37:36,639
Speaker 1: of the panel farm in any way shape or form

1759
01:37:36,720 --> 01:37:37,560
Speaker 1: an emergency?

1760
01:37:37,840 --> 01:37:39,640
Speaker 2: God, yeah, I'm not sure if I brought it with me,

1761
01:37:39,720 --> 01:37:45,840
Speaker 2: But the city does a lot of business by emergency.

1762
01:37:46,320 --> 01:37:49,280
Speaker 2: In fact, I was watching the city home a city

1763
01:37:49,280 --> 01:37:52,920
Speaker 2: council meeting one day online and some woman came up

1764
01:37:52,960 --> 01:37:56,880
Speaker 2: to claim her two minutes and she didn't even talk

1765
01:37:56,920 --> 01:37:59,160
Speaker 2: about what she came to the council for because she

1766
01:37:59,200 --> 01:38:02,599
Speaker 2: had seen the age to and the agenda will list

1767
01:38:02,640 --> 01:38:06,360
Speaker 2: all these emergency ordinances that they intend to, you know,

1768
01:38:06,479 --> 01:38:10,640
Speaker 2: deliberate or to vote on. And she was beside herself

1769
01:38:11,120 --> 01:38:14,639
Speaker 2: and she thought the city was beset by emergencies. She says,

1770
01:38:14,680 --> 01:38:17,880
Speaker 2: what are all these emergencies.

1771
01:38:17,720 --> 01:38:20,640
Speaker 1: Close to martial law declaration exactly?

1772
01:38:21,200 --> 01:38:25,200
Speaker 2: So she was she was alarmed, and it's it's unfortunate,

1773
01:38:25,240 --> 01:38:27,840
Speaker 2: but that's how the city does business in in in

1774
01:38:27,960 --> 01:38:31,360
Speaker 2: the state of Ohio, And I think this is pretty

1775
01:38:31,439 --> 01:38:35,799
Speaker 2: much universal across the country. But legislatures, legislatures are supposed

1776
01:38:35,840 --> 01:38:39,839
Speaker 2: to pass ordinances based on three readings of the ordinance.

1777
01:38:40,080 --> 01:38:43,679
Speaker 2: They they're they're supposed to read the ordinance on three

1778
01:38:43,720 --> 01:38:47,479
Speaker 2: different days before they vote on it. Well, what the

1779
01:38:47,520 --> 01:38:50,599
Speaker 2: city does is when they want to get something passed

1780
01:38:50,640 --> 01:38:54,240
Speaker 2: without any you know, pushback or feedback from the from

1781
01:38:54,320 --> 01:38:55,200
Speaker 2: the people.

1782
01:38:55,680 --> 01:38:59,920
Speaker 1: Their constituents, you mean todd Yes, they purport to represent, yes,

1783
01:39:00,080 --> 01:39:00,800
Speaker 1: though we don't want to.

1784
01:39:00,720 --> 01:39:05,120
Speaker 2: Hear from them those people. So they actually have to

1785
01:39:05,160 --> 01:39:08,920
Speaker 2: take three votes on an emergency ordinance. They first have

1786
01:39:09,040 --> 01:39:12,520
Speaker 2: to vote to suspend the three readings.

1787
01:39:11,720 --> 01:39:14,519
Speaker 1: All right, I see this couple a mile away.

1788
01:39:14,680 --> 01:39:18,560
Speaker 2: So then they vote on the ordinance itself as an emergency,

1789
01:39:19,280 --> 01:39:22,080
Speaker 2: and then they have to vote to keep that emergency

1790
01:39:22,120 --> 01:39:26,920
Speaker 2: clause in the bill. So, for example, I decided to

1791
01:39:26,960 --> 01:39:30,240
Speaker 2: go back and look at how many emergency ordinances did

1792
01:39:30,280 --> 01:39:34,280
Speaker 2: the city council enact in twenty twenty five. So I

1793
01:39:34,360 --> 01:39:38,639
Speaker 2: went back counted them all up. They passed four hundred

1794
01:39:38,680 --> 01:39:42,519
Speaker 2: and four ordinances in twenty twenty five. Three hundred and

1795
01:39:42,560 --> 01:39:47,160
Speaker 2: three of them were emergency ordinances seventy five percent. And

1796
01:39:47,520 --> 01:39:50,840
Speaker 2: they're supposed to state the reason, and the reason is

1797
01:39:50,840 --> 01:39:54,799
Speaker 2: that the reason is some general statement about to further

1798
01:39:54,920 --> 01:39:58,479
Speaker 2: the health, safety and whatever of the community. That's all

1799
01:39:58,520 --> 01:40:01,120
Speaker 2: they have to do, and that's and test it in court,

1800
01:40:01,439 --> 01:40:03,320
Speaker 2: and the court says, okay, well, we're not going to

1801
01:40:03,360 --> 01:40:06,600
Speaker 2: get involved in what the legislature decides to do and

1802
01:40:06,640 --> 01:40:11,559
Speaker 2: that type of things exactly, So the city council has

1803
01:40:11,600 --> 01:40:15,200
Speaker 2: a clear runway to pass whatever they want to pass

1804
01:40:15,560 --> 01:40:20,000
Speaker 2: without any feedback. And the critical piece about emergency ordinances

1805
01:40:20,720 --> 01:40:24,719
Speaker 2: is that in the Ohio law, it cuts off any

1806
01:40:24,800 --> 01:40:29,120
Speaker 2: ability of the citizens to appeal that through a referendum. So,

1807
01:40:29,240 --> 01:40:32,160
Speaker 2: for example, on this solar array, if that hadn't been

1808
01:40:32,160 --> 01:40:35,200
Speaker 2: an emergency ordinance, we could try to get that on

1809
01:40:35,240 --> 01:40:38,680
Speaker 2: the ballot for people to approve yes or no. So

1810
01:40:38,760 --> 01:40:41,720
Speaker 2: these emergency ordinances wipe that all out. And that's what

1811
01:40:41,840 --> 01:40:43,240
Speaker 2: happened with Connected Community.

1812
01:40:43,360 --> 01:40:44,719
Speaker 1: That's what I was going to say, that's what Hyde

1813
01:40:44,760 --> 01:40:47,360
Speaker 1: Park did. Well, I mean, they got about, they got

1814
01:40:47,439 --> 01:40:49,040
Speaker 1: something that was going to go on the back exactly.

1815
01:40:49,080 --> 01:40:51,640
Speaker 1: For some reason, they forgot to call it an emergency.

1816
01:40:51,720 --> 01:40:55,040
Speaker 2: I don't know why they didn't call it an emergency.

1817
01:40:53,960 --> 01:40:56,960
Speaker 2: I think they knew that if they had done that,

1818
01:40:57,040 --> 01:41:01,480
Speaker 2: it would have been an outrageous outcry from the people.

1819
01:41:01,280 --> 01:41:03,439
Speaker 1: Because the residents of Hygh Park were paying attention to

1820
01:41:03,479 --> 01:41:05,439
Speaker 1: what was going on in their neighborhood.

1821
01:41:04,880 --> 01:41:08,240
Speaker 2: That's right, And so there was a calculation that while

1822
01:41:09,240 --> 01:41:11,840
Speaker 2: it's better to risk them being able to get all

1823
01:41:11,960 --> 01:41:16,240
Speaker 2: the signatures on a petition in time versus all the

1824
01:41:16,280 --> 01:41:19,320
Speaker 2: outcry that would happen if they declared an emergency.

1825
01:41:18,840 --> 01:41:21,160
Speaker 1: Or and they ignored all the outcry that they received

1826
01:41:21,160 --> 01:41:23,080
Speaker 1: when they went forward with a plan anyway. All the

1827
01:41:23,120 --> 01:41:25,040
Speaker 1: residents showed up and complained about.

1828
01:41:24,840 --> 01:41:28,120
Speaker 2: It, hours and hours, hours and hours of you know,

1829
01:41:28,200 --> 01:41:29,400
Speaker 2: protest by the people.

1830
01:41:29,560 --> 01:41:32,000
Speaker 1: So they said, well, we'll suffer through that, we'll ignore

1831
01:41:32,040 --> 01:41:34,960
Speaker 1: the will of our constituents. We'll move forward with it anyway,

1832
01:41:35,080 --> 01:41:37,000
Speaker 1: and we'll run the risk of a ballot an initiative.

1833
01:41:37,040 --> 01:41:39,360
Speaker 1: But oh, come on, this is the city of Cincinnati.

1834
01:41:39,400 --> 01:41:41,080
Speaker 1: There's no way they're going to be able to collect

1835
01:41:41,160 --> 01:41:44,559
Speaker 1: enough signatures to override this. Whoops. I think they did.

1836
01:41:44,760 --> 01:41:45,759
Speaker 2: I think that's what happened.

1837
01:41:45,920 --> 01:41:48,519
Speaker 1: I guarantee you sure, as I'm sitting here, Todd zinzer Man,

1838
01:41:48,600 --> 01:41:50,800
Speaker 1: I cannot thank you enough for doing this on behalf

1839
01:41:50,840 --> 01:41:53,680
Speaker 1: of the city of Cincinnati, and the residents take the

1840
01:41:53,760 --> 01:41:57,040
Speaker 1: laboring or all the time, all documented. If there are

1841
01:41:57,080 --> 01:41:59,760
Speaker 1: no documents, Todd at least goes through the process of

1842
01:41:59,760 --> 01:42:03,400
Speaker 1: asking for them or appealing to at least a body

1843
01:42:03,439 --> 01:42:05,320
Speaker 1: that will be in a position to get them the

1844
01:42:05,479 --> 01:42:08,120
Speaker 1: Railroad Board. Todd, you keep up the great work. You

1845
01:42:08,160 --> 01:42:09,920
Speaker 1: always have a welcome spot here in the fifty five

1846
01:42:09,960 --> 01:42:12,599
Speaker 1: Karsee Morning Show. And thanks again for coming to lunch yesterday.

1847
01:42:12,600 --> 01:42:15,720
Speaker 1: It was fabulous. See Thank you Ato six here at

1848
01:42:15,720 --> 01:42:19,679
Speaker 1: fifty five krc DE talk station. Happy Friday Eve. Brian

1849
01:42:19,720 --> 01:42:21,840
Speaker 1: Thomas right here hosting the thirty five Carsee Morning Show.

1850
01:42:21,920 --> 01:42:24,639
Speaker 1: Always pleased to see this man on the rundown. Congressman

1851
01:42:24,720 --> 01:42:27,000
Speaker 1: David Taylor, Welcome back to the morning show. I appreciate

1852
01:42:27,040 --> 01:42:28,840
Speaker 1: you willingness to talk with my listeners and me.

1853
01:42:30,400 --> 01:42:32,240
Speaker 7: Thanks for having me again, Brian. Good to be with you.

1854
01:42:32,479 --> 01:42:34,840
Speaker 1: Always a pleasure. Well, I got this shutdown, avert it

1855
01:42:34,840 --> 01:42:36,800
Speaker 1: at least for a while. I guess five of the

1856
01:42:36,840 --> 01:42:39,200
Speaker 1: spending bills got put through. They held off in an

1857
01:42:39,200 --> 01:42:41,720
Speaker 1: apartment of Homeland security funding because oh, I don't know,

1858
01:42:41,840 --> 01:42:45,800
Speaker 1: evil Ice or whatever. Continuing resolution I guess kicks the

1859
01:42:45,800 --> 01:42:47,600
Speaker 1: can down the road for Is it two weeks to

1860
01:42:47,640 --> 01:42:49,679
Speaker 1: talk about this and hammer out the details, David?

1861
01:42:51,160 --> 01:42:53,800
Speaker 7: It was the day it was passing the Senate, but

1862
01:42:53,880 --> 01:42:55,920
Speaker 7: some of those days have now passed, so it's an

1863
01:42:55,920 --> 01:42:57,080
Speaker 7: even shorter runway.

1864
01:42:57,240 --> 01:43:01,120
Speaker 1: All right, So my understanding is the the Democrats claim

1865
01:43:01,360 --> 01:43:05,120
Speaker 1: that they want ICE agents to be prohibited from wearing masks,

1866
01:43:05,400 --> 01:43:08,120
Speaker 1: they want ICE agents to wear cameras, and I guess

1867
01:43:08,120 --> 01:43:11,040
Speaker 1: they want some uniform standard of how law enforcement and

1868
01:43:11,160 --> 01:43:14,200
Speaker 1: engagement and law enforcement, as well as the eradication of

1869
01:43:14,240 --> 01:43:17,200
Speaker 1: these open sweeps, whatever those happened to be. Is that

1870
01:43:17,320 --> 01:43:19,599
Speaker 1: really it? Is it? I mean, if you hammer those out,

1871
01:43:19,680 --> 01:43:22,680
Speaker 1: are we done with DHS funding or are they going

1872
01:43:22,720 --> 01:43:24,760
Speaker 1: to ask for more? What is it? Which direction is

1873
01:43:24,760 --> 01:43:26,000
Speaker 1: this going to go to? The best you can see

1874
01:43:26,000 --> 01:43:30,439
Speaker 1: it coming forward, your Congressman Davidson, I mean Taylor, Sorry

1875
01:43:31,120 --> 01:43:31,839
Speaker 1: that was earlier.

1876
01:43:33,600 --> 01:43:35,320
Speaker 7: I've been called away worse things than no.

1877
01:43:35,360 --> 01:43:40,439
Speaker 1: I know, Congress, He's a man, he is a good man.

1878
01:43:41,840 --> 01:43:44,720
Speaker 7: They did come out with a list of ten demands

1879
01:43:44,840 --> 01:43:49,880
Speaker 7: you may have already seen it to agree to a

1880
01:43:49,960 --> 01:43:53,160
Speaker 7: DHS bill, And you'll notice that, as you mentioned, two

1881
01:43:53,160 --> 01:43:57,360
Speaker 7: of the top three are designed to further endanger ICE agents,

1882
01:43:57,360 --> 01:43:59,479
Speaker 7: demanding that they not be able to wear masks, that

1883
01:43:59,560 --> 01:44:04,400
Speaker 7: they have the full identification visible to the people on

1884
01:44:04,439 --> 01:44:07,240
Speaker 7: the streets who are already threatening them with violence all

1885
01:44:07,240 --> 01:44:10,160
Speaker 7: the time. So a lot of the list are basically

1886
01:44:10,200 --> 01:44:14,200
Speaker 7: non starters and what what maybe the most puzzling Brian

1887
01:44:14,520 --> 01:44:18,840
Speaker 7: is some of the things that the Chuck Schumer at

1888
01:44:18,920 --> 01:44:24,160
Speaker 7: or was asking for. There's money in the in the

1889
01:44:24,280 --> 01:44:26,639
Speaker 7: in the bill that they refuse to pass for for

1890
01:44:26,920 --> 01:44:29,880
Speaker 7: body cameras, which you know, we want body cameras for them.

1891
01:44:30,600 --> 01:44:35,639
Speaker 7: The ICE agents want body cameras. There's actually operating under

1892
01:44:35,680 --> 01:44:38,880
Speaker 7: the continuing resolution that we're under now, ICE gets six

1893
01:44:38,960 --> 01:44:42,120
Speaker 7: hundred million dollars more than they will receive if we

1894
01:44:42,200 --> 01:44:45,479
Speaker 7: pass the bill. Uh So that doesn't make much sense

1895
01:44:45,520 --> 01:44:50,799
Speaker 7: to me either. And there's also they're worried about the

1896
01:44:50,800 --> 01:44:53,760
Speaker 7: ICE agents maybe being heavy handed. Well, there's money for

1897
01:44:54,200 --> 01:44:57,320
Speaker 7: further de escalation training in the bill that's not in

1898
01:44:57,360 --> 01:45:00,200
Speaker 7: the continuing resolution, but they won't vote for the bill.

1899
01:45:00,479 --> 01:45:06,400
Speaker 7: So their motives are are certainly not as as they're

1900
01:45:06,439 --> 01:45:09,240
Speaker 7: portrayed in the media. Their motives are to protect the

1901
01:45:10,040 --> 01:45:12,920
Speaker 7: illegal immigrants they work so hard over the Biden administration

1902
01:45:13,000 --> 01:45:14,400
Speaker 7: years to import.

1903
01:45:14,479 --> 01:45:17,120
Speaker 1: Well, ironing out those problems is one thing is this

1904
01:45:17,640 --> 01:45:21,120
Speaker 1: is this are you approaching this or is Congress approaching this?

1905
01:45:22,200 --> 01:45:25,200
Speaker 1: DHS funding sort of is like a whole brand new

1906
01:45:25,320 --> 01:45:27,680
Speaker 1: time to start over. And in other words, can we

1907
01:45:27,720 --> 01:45:30,000
Speaker 1: add amendments be could for example, we add the Save

1908
01:45:30,200 --> 01:45:33,360
Speaker 1: Act into the DHS funding and get that passed. That

1909
01:45:33,479 --> 01:45:36,120
Speaker 1: enjoys widespread support. I don't care what Chucky Schumer says

1910
01:45:36,120 --> 01:45:37,960
Speaker 1: that this is Jim Crow two point oh. I think

1911
01:45:37,960 --> 01:45:40,160
Speaker 1: that is an offensive determination, and I think it's an

1912
01:45:40,160 --> 01:45:42,679
Speaker 1: insult to all people of color and any minority. They

1913
01:45:42,760 --> 01:45:45,760
Speaker 1: claim are incapable of getting a driver's license even though

1914
01:45:45,760 --> 01:45:47,840
Speaker 1: they do it every single day in order to engage

1915
01:45:47,880 --> 01:45:50,200
Speaker 1: in regular commerce and industry in this country, because you

1916
01:45:50,200 --> 01:45:53,000
Speaker 1: need a photo ID to do it. Ah, sorry David Taylor,

1917
01:45:53,200 --> 01:45:55,639
Speaker 1: but is it possible to get that put in there

1918
01:45:55,720 --> 01:45:58,200
Speaker 1: or would that be like they would be a non starter.

1919
01:46:00,160 --> 01:46:03,400
Speaker 7: It looks like it's a non starter. What the Speaker

1920
01:46:03,439 --> 01:46:06,000
Speaker 7: said today and what Leaders Soon has said on the

1921
01:46:06,040 --> 01:46:09,120
Speaker 7: Senate side is the negotiation is currently going on between

1922
01:46:09,560 --> 01:46:13,599
Speaker 7: Senate Democrats in the White House. The White House wants

1923
01:46:13,640 --> 01:46:16,840
Speaker 7: this pass. They don't want anything. They want as little

1924
01:46:16,920 --> 01:46:19,000
Speaker 7: changed about it as possible, and the Democrats have their

1925
01:46:19,040 --> 01:46:22,240
Speaker 7: lists of demands, most of which are you know, far

1926
01:46:22,320 --> 01:46:25,720
Speaker 7: fetched and never happening. Whether their goal is just to

1927
01:46:26,040 --> 01:46:29,519
Speaker 7: hold things up again like they did last time, or

1928
01:46:29,560 --> 01:46:34,760
Speaker 7: to or what they're they're actually expected outcome is It's

1929
01:46:34,760 --> 01:46:38,120
Speaker 7: hard to say, but I think they're they're putting it

1930
01:46:38,200 --> 01:46:40,600
Speaker 7: in the President's hands for the moment to try to

1931
01:46:40,600 --> 01:46:43,080
Speaker 7: get the DHS built. I think the Save Act, as

1932
01:46:43,120 --> 01:46:45,160
Speaker 7: popular as it is, is going to have to go

1933
01:46:45,520 --> 01:46:49,479
Speaker 7: with a different lative legislative package or get presented on

1934
01:46:49,520 --> 01:46:51,559
Speaker 7: its own at some point. But like you said, I mean,

1935
01:46:51,600 --> 01:46:54,800
Speaker 7: the even on the Democrats side, the when you pull

1936
01:46:54,840 --> 01:46:57,400
Speaker 7: the public it's well over seventy percent. It's kind of

1937
01:46:57,400 --> 01:46:59,920
Speaker 7: like term limits. If you just had a national rest

1938
01:47:00,080 --> 01:47:02,760
Speaker 7: random on those two issues. They both be done a

1939
01:47:02,760 --> 01:47:03,439
Speaker 7: long time ago.

1940
01:47:03,720 --> 01:47:06,519
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, and that's the that's the insanity that I

1941
01:47:06,520 --> 01:47:11,280
Speaker 1: don't understand. I mean, everyone seems to be broadly in

1942
01:47:11,360 --> 01:47:14,000
Speaker 1: favor of it, and it is insulting to tell a

1943
01:47:14,040 --> 01:47:16,320
Speaker 1: person of color that we don't think you're smart enough

1944
01:47:16,360 --> 01:47:20,519
Speaker 1: to go do this. I mean, it's just any hope

1945
01:47:20,560 --> 01:47:22,880
Speaker 1: that it is advanced as an independent bill. I mean,

1946
01:47:22,880 --> 01:47:25,320
Speaker 1: I know that's you know, that's a strategy discussion. You

1947
01:47:25,360 --> 01:47:26,640
Speaker 1: got to deal with the Speaker of the House on

1948
01:47:26,680 --> 01:47:29,080
Speaker 1: advancing it. But what's the hold up. I suppose the

1949
01:47:29,120 --> 01:47:31,240
Speaker 1: American people might want to know, Congressman.

1950
01:47:32,080 --> 01:47:35,640
Speaker 7: They rightly should want to know that. I'm hopeful that

1951
01:47:35,680 --> 01:47:39,120
Speaker 7: it is attached to the next must pass legislation that

1952
01:47:39,160 --> 01:47:42,640
Speaker 7: we're represented with, and for my money, that would have

1953
01:47:42,680 --> 01:47:45,160
Speaker 7: been a great time to do it. I'm not the president,

1954
01:47:45,200 --> 01:47:47,639
Speaker 7: I'm not the Speaker of the House. I think most

1955
01:47:47,640 --> 01:47:53,360
Speaker 7: people in the House on the Republican side absolutely want

1956
01:47:53,360 --> 01:47:55,160
Speaker 7: to You're hearing from more and more members speak it up,

1957
01:47:55,200 --> 01:47:58,160
Speaker 7: saying this has to happen. It's only right where the

1958
01:47:58,240 --> 01:48:03,440
Speaker 7: only you know, industrialized nation that doesn't require idea to vote.

1959
01:48:03,880 --> 01:48:09,200
Speaker 7: But when when Democrats electoral chances are tied to illegals

1960
01:48:09,439 --> 01:48:12,720
Speaker 7: to the degree they are, they're never going to support that.

1961
01:48:13,120 --> 01:48:15,400
Speaker 7: It's going to be we have to be done the hard.

1962
01:48:15,160 --> 01:48:17,439
Speaker 1: Way, right, Okay, And I hear and I hear people

1963
01:48:17,439 --> 01:48:20,560
Speaker 1: say that all the time. Now, state law, maybe I

1964
01:48:20,600 --> 01:48:23,320
Speaker 1: don't know, doesn't apply. Maybe illegal immigrants can vote on

1965
01:48:23,320 --> 01:48:27,320
Speaker 1: state issues, perhaps, but it is not lawful for someone

1966
01:48:27,320 --> 01:48:30,360
Speaker 1: who is not a US citizen to be voting in

1967
01:48:30,400 --> 01:48:34,480
Speaker 1: a federal election. Right, Congressman Taylor.

1968
01:48:35,439 --> 01:48:36,280
Speaker 7: Absolutely right.

1969
01:48:36,680 --> 01:48:41,200
Speaker 1: So that's the law of voting, that's right, that's the

1970
01:48:41,280 --> 01:48:43,240
Speaker 1: law in the books. So in order to be able

1971
01:48:43,360 --> 01:48:46,760
Speaker 1: to enforce that and prevent illegal immigrants from voting in

1972
01:48:46,880 --> 01:48:52,840
Speaker 1: federal elections. Asking for a citizenship of verification seems to

1973
01:48:52,920 --> 01:48:55,240
Speaker 1: be consistent with the state of federal law.

1974
01:48:57,000 --> 01:49:00,120
Speaker 7: I agree completely with you. Know, each state has the

1975
01:49:00,840 --> 01:49:03,840
Speaker 7: sort of sovereignty over the election process in their state,

1976
01:49:04,000 --> 01:49:07,040
Speaker 7: and it's a little dicey where that line starts and

1977
01:49:07,160 --> 01:49:10,520
Speaker 7: ends when it comes to your federal elections. In California

1978
01:49:10,760 --> 01:49:13,080
Speaker 7: right now, the law is if the person at the

1979
01:49:13,160 --> 01:49:17,680
Speaker 7: poll asked the voter for identifications, they may be in

1980
01:49:17,760 --> 01:49:20,840
Speaker 7: legal trouble, but not the person who's voting, who probably

1981
01:49:20,880 --> 01:49:23,360
Speaker 7: isn't properly well, and.

1982
01:49:23,400 --> 01:49:26,040
Speaker 1: I suppose to vote. That's the only vehicle by which

1983
01:49:26,240 --> 01:49:29,280
Speaker 1: an illegal immigrant could vote or have a sway over

1984
01:49:29,360 --> 01:49:32,559
Speaker 1: a federal election. If state of law allows illegal immigrants

1985
01:49:32,560 --> 01:49:34,720
Speaker 1: to vote on state issues, but it's a state and

1986
01:49:34,880 --> 01:49:38,560
Speaker 1: federal ballot, then seems to me that's an opportunity for

1987
01:49:38,600 --> 01:49:41,240
Speaker 1: an illegal immigrant to vote on federal matters.

1988
01:49:42,760 --> 01:49:45,360
Speaker 7: Yeah, for sure, and most of the Blue states want that.

1989
01:49:45,479 --> 01:49:48,880
Speaker 1: You that doesn't know that's the full circle, right, I mean,

1990
01:49:49,040 --> 01:49:51,680
Speaker 1: just really solidifying where I am on this, because it

1991
01:49:51,840 --> 01:49:55,040
Speaker 1: shouldn't the presence of illegal immigrants, whether they're desired in

1992
01:49:55,040 --> 01:49:58,160
Speaker 1: any given community or not should not have any effect

1993
01:49:58,200 --> 01:50:00,960
Speaker 1: whatsoever on a federal election outcome period. That's just they

1994
01:50:00,960 --> 01:50:04,800
Speaker 1: shouldn't be voting on any of those topics, right And.

1995
01:50:05,240 --> 01:50:08,519
Speaker 7: Honestly, Brian, they are voting because they're getting registered when

1996
01:50:08,520 --> 01:50:11,360
Speaker 7: they give them drivers' licenses. But even if they were

1997
01:50:11,439 --> 01:50:15,760
Speaker 7: not voting, they're still impacting federal elections because they're in

1998
01:50:15,880 --> 01:50:19,160
Speaker 7: blue states and they're creating a representation that those blue

1999
01:50:19,160 --> 01:50:21,879
Speaker 7: states shouldn't have because of the Census counsel and citizens.

2000
01:50:22,760 --> 01:50:26,360
Speaker 7: So they're absolutely vital. You people are absolutely fleeing blue

2001
01:50:26,400 --> 01:50:28,800
Speaker 7: states the states. So the only way to keep their

2002
01:50:28,840 --> 01:50:33,720
Speaker 7: electoral chances and their power in Congress alive is to

2003
01:50:34,080 --> 01:50:38,400
Speaker 7: bring in and retain illegal aliens. And that's why you're

2004
01:50:38,400 --> 01:50:41,400
Speaker 7: seeing all the fraud in the blue states because giving

2005
01:50:41,439 --> 01:50:43,960
Speaker 7: them access with no consequences to all our safety net

2006
01:50:44,040 --> 01:50:48,200
Speaker 7: programs is a tremendous recruiting tool. We'reposed to come to

2007
01:50:48,280 --> 01:50:48,679
Speaker 7: your state.

2008
01:50:48,920 --> 01:50:52,360
Speaker 1: Well, considering everybody with a job. Congressman Taylor has fled

2009
01:50:52,479 --> 01:50:55,479
Speaker 1: states like California, New York, New Jersey, Illinois and gone

2010
01:50:55,520 --> 01:50:58,360
Speaker 1: to places where life is easier and regulatory burdens are

2011
01:50:58,400 --> 01:51:01,360
Speaker 1: smaller and taxes are lower. They're having a real battle

2012
01:51:01,439 --> 01:51:05,559
Speaker 1: competing with the illegal immigrants coming in to even replace

2013
01:51:05,680 --> 01:51:09,800
Speaker 1: the population of people that left. Why they're bad that

2014
01:51:09,880 --> 01:51:11,080
Speaker 1: the borders shut down.

2015
01:51:12,800 --> 01:51:16,479
Speaker 7: Absolutely true, and you know the twenty thirty census is

2016
01:51:16,520 --> 01:51:19,320
Speaker 7: going to baarn that out, actually the previous census board out.

2017
01:51:19,360 --> 01:51:22,599
Speaker 7: But there were, you know, honest mistakes made which favored

2018
01:51:22,880 --> 01:51:26,840
Speaker 7: blue states over red states that led to excess representation

2019
01:51:27,040 --> 01:51:28,120
Speaker 7: for Debocrats.

2020
01:51:28,160 --> 01:51:30,680
Speaker 1: Again, Well, that twenty twenty five analysis that was just

2021
01:51:30,760 --> 01:51:33,639
Speaker 1: done on the predictions for the twenty thirty again goes down.

2022
01:51:33,720 --> 01:51:36,360
Speaker 1: It goes to the point being is boiled down. Democrats

2023
01:51:36,400 --> 01:51:40,080
Speaker 1: are standing to lose a lot of seats in Congress

2024
01:51:40,200 --> 01:51:43,760
Speaker 1: because of that population shift, and the electoral college now

2025
01:51:43,840 --> 01:51:46,639
Speaker 1: will favor the Republican Party regardless of how many illegal

2026
01:51:46,680 --> 01:51:48,639
Speaker 1: immigrants they try to ship into their community. It seems

2027
01:51:48,680 --> 01:51:51,800
Speaker 1: like a foreground conclusion pause will bring Congressman David Taylor back.

2028
01:51:51,800 --> 01:51:55,400
Speaker 1: He'll explain what the Deporting Fraudsters Act is. Sounds like

2029
01:51:55,439 --> 01:51:58,840
Speaker 1: it's a good idea. Plus expanding broadband and appellation more

2030
01:51:58,880 --> 01:52:04,760
Speaker 1: with Congressman Taylor. Sticker fifty five the talk Station eight

2031
01:52:04,800 --> 01:52:07,400
Speaker 1: eighteen if above kersee the talk station i Art Media

2032
01:52:07,400 --> 01:52:09,560
Speaker 1: Aviation expert Jay Ratliff coming to the bottom of the

2033
01:52:09,560 --> 01:52:12,120
Speaker 1: eyre of the meantime, one more segment here with Congressman

2034
01:52:12,840 --> 01:52:18,920
Speaker 1: David Taylor pivoting over Deporting Fraudster's Act. Well, inflation reduction

2035
01:52:19,000 --> 01:52:21,320
Speaker 1: acts sounded really good on its face there, Congressman Taylor,

2036
01:52:21,360 --> 01:52:23,560
Speaker 1: but it didn't work out that way. What is the

2037
01:52:23,720 --> 01:52:25,519
Speaker 1: Deporting Fraudster's Act?

2038
01:52:27,080 --> 01:52:30,240
Speaker 7: Fair enough, Brian, This one is just as it's described.

2039
01:52:30,240 --> 01:52:33,880
Speaker 7: It's very simple, common sense bill. We actually submitted it

2040
01:52:34,200 --> 01:52:38,559
Speaker 7: last March. I want to thank Chairman Jordan for passing

2041
01:52:38,600 --> 01:52:40,599
Speaker 7: it out of the Judiciary Committee and should be coming

2042
01:52:40,640 --> 01:52:44,720
Speaker 7: to the floor very soon. I mentioned that it was

2043
01:52:45,040 --> 01:52:47,519
Speaker 7: filed last March because in the hearing where it was

2044
01:52:47,600 --> 01:52:51,960
Speaker 7: passed out of a Judiciary committee, the Democrats for sales

2045
01:52:51,960 --> 01:52:55,360
Speaker 7: a knee jerk reaction to the fraud that we discovered

2046
01:52:55,400 --> 01:52:57,320
Speaker 7: in Minnesota. But you know, we've known that fraud has

2047
01:52:57,320 --> 01:52:58,760
Speaker 7: been going on for a long time. We're a little

2048
01:52:59,400 --> 01:53:02,879
Speaker 7: stunned at this scope of it, I think. But basically

2049
01:53:03,040 --> 01:53:07,400
Speaker 7: the bill makes receiving any federal benefits from any of

2050
01:53:07,439 --> 01:53:11,360
Speaker 7: our thinking that programs but an illegal alien a deportable offense.

2051
01:53:11,840 --> 01:53:14,320
Speaker 7: You will also prevent people who are convicted of doing

2052
01:53:14,400 --> 01:53:17,320
Speaker 7: so or who admit to having done so from ever

2053
01:53:17,439 --> 01:53:22,000
Speaker 7: being readmitted. So something that's basically common sense and something

2054
01:53:22,040 --> 01:53:24,800
Speaker 7: to share to be on the books, But sadly it's

2055
01:53:24,840 --> 01:53:27,760
Speaker 7: not so just you know, one of several bills that

2056
01:53:27,800 --> 01:53:29,840
Speaker 7: are going through from the Republican side to sort of

2057
01:53:29,880 --> 01:53:34,080
Speaker 7: close loopholes that have existed for you know, forever.

2058
01:53:34,240 --> 01:53:38,000
Speaker 1: Basically well, clearly, the level of fraud that's being revealed

2059
01:53:38,040 --> 01:53:41,040
Speaker 1: more and more every single day is just outright appalling,

2060
01:53:41,760 --> 01:53:46,800
Speaker 1: and there appears to be a it's just a it's

2061
01:53:46,800 --> 01:53:50,479
Speaker 1: an intentional, you know, system that's been created here where

2062
01:53:50,560 --> 01:53:53,120
Speaker 1: these non governmental organizations the money that flows out or

2063
01:53:53,160 --> 01:53:56,120
Speaker 1: maybe the leering centers of Minneapolis are a vehicle to

2064
01:53:56,200 --> 01:53:59,280
Speaker 1: put money back in the hands of politicians or political

2065
01:53:59,320 --> 01:54:02,080
Speaker 1: activists rather than actually doing some good in the community,

2066
01:54:02,280 --> 01:54:06,320
Speaker 1: because there's nobody following what has been done with the money.

2067
01:54:06,400 --> 01:54:08,240
Speaker 1: I just talked with Todd Zinzer about this going on

2068
01:54:08,280 --> 01:54:10,920
Speaker 1: in the city of Cincinnati. Yeah, they gave money to

2069
01:54:11,120 --> 01:54:13,639
Speaker 1: non governmental organizations, but no one knows what the hell

2070
01:54:13,800 --> 01:54:16,320
Speaker 1: was done with the money. I mean, this could literally

2071
01:54:16,479 --> 01:54:20,640
Speaker 1: exist in any governmental entity, from the townships to the

2072
01:54:20,800 --> 01:54:22,960
Speaker 1: state to the federal which is obviously what's going on

2073
01:54:23,040 --> 01:54:24,400
Speaker 1: in Minneapolis.

2074
01:54:25,479 --> 01:54:27,800
Speaker 7: Right and it's going on many other places too. I

2075
01:54:27,880 --> 01:54:32,839
Speaker 7: think that they have some particularly unsophisticated leadership in Minnesota

2076
01:54:32,920 --> 01:54:34,520
Speaker 7: that made it a little bit easier to find it there.

2077
01:54:34,560 --> 01:54:39,840
Speaker 7: I think between Wall and Fry got some characters up

2078
01:54:39,840 --> 01:54:41,720
Speaker 7: there that maybe not quite as sneaky as some of

2079
01:54:41,800 --> 01:54:46,360
Speaker 7: the California in New York. But it's, you know, it

2080
01:54:46,440 --> 01:54:48,720
Speaker 7: all dovetails together with what we were talking about earlier.

2081
01:54:49,200 --> 01:54:52,600
Speaker 7: The Democrats spent the four years under Biden bringing in

2082
01:54:52,680 --> 01:54:54,880
Speaker 7: as many illegal aliens as they could, and they've spent

2083
01:54:54,960 --> 01:54:59,720
Speaker 7: the last year plus absolutely going to the mattresses.

2084
01:54:59,240 --> 01:54:59,840
Speaker 6: To keep them here.

2085
01:55:00,160 --> 01:55:00,360
Speaker 1: Yeah.

2086
01:55:00,520 --> 01:55:02,920
Speaker 7: So and this is this is as we mentioned earlier,

2087
01:55:03,000 --> 01:55:04,920
Speaker 7: this is a big recruiting tool. If you can come

2088
01:55:04,960 --> 01:55:07,720
Speaker 7: in and we're not going to look at the you know,

2089
01:55:08,520 --> 01:55:11,160
Speaker 7: if you're actually qualifying for these programs, just sign here

2090
01:55:11,760 --> 01:55:14,320
Speaker 7: and you know when this, as this investigation proceeds, I

2091
01:55:14,320 --> 01:55:16,280
Speaker 7: don't think any of this will be surprised to find

2092
01:55:16,320 --> 01:55:18,080
Speaker 7: out that if some of those dollars go back to

2093
01:55:18,120 --> 01:55:21,640
Speaker 7: the pockets of the Democrat leaders who are turning a blind.

2094
01:55:21,520 --> 01:55:24,800
Speaker 1: Eye to it, without question, well it's become its own industry.

2095
01:55:25,320 --> 01:55:27,280
Speaker 1: You create a problem, you open the borders up, gring

2096
01:55:27,320 --> 01:55:28,960
Speaker 1: every man, woman and child from the four corners of

2097
01:55:28,960 --> 01:55:32,040
Speaker 1: the globe in the United States. It taxes the local resources.

2098
01:55:32,120 --> 01:55:34,680
Speaker 1: We've got a problem on our hands here. I'm a

2099
01:55:34,760 --> 01:55:37,120
Speaker 1: non governmental organization. I'm going to help you deal with

2100
01:55:37,280 --> 01:55:39,920
Speaker 1: filling the blank problem created by the open borders. Then

2101
01:55:40,000 --> 01:55:41,720
Speaker 1: they got their hand in the cookie jar and becomes

2102
01:55:41,720 --> 01:55:44,440
Speaker 1: a self fulfilling prophecy. They don't want to fix the problem,

2103
01:55:44,760 --> 01:55:47,040
Speaker 1: they want it to continue so they can continue drawing

2104
01:55:47,080 --> 01:55:48,600
Speaker 1: taxpayer money into their pockets.

2105
01:55:50,080 --> 01:55:51,880
Speaker 7: Yeah, and it's been going on for a long time.

2106
01:55:52,440 --> 01:55:55,800
Speaker 7: And with the essential shutdown of the USA, I d

2107
01:55:56,960 --> 01:55:59,800
Speaker 7: if the other avenues of fraud are going to ramp up.

2108
01:56:00,160 --> 01:56:01,960
Speaker 7: Is there are a lot of dollars going through there

2109
01:56:02,040 --> 01:56:06,080
Speaker 7: to those very same projects you're talking about, and they

2110
01:56:06,120 --> 01:56:08,320
Speaker 7: have to be have to be funded somehow, and it's

2111
01:56:08,360 --> 01:56:09,640
Speaker 7: going to be on the taxpayers back.

2112
01:56:10,120 --> 01:56:13,040
Speaker 1: All right, let's before we part company. David Taylor shining

2113
01:56:13,080 --> 01:56:16,600
Speaker 1: a bright light of sunshine on this much needed disinfecting here,

2114
01:56:16,720 --> 01:56:21,000
Speaker 1: expanding broadband and Appalaysia. I've heard this concept bandied about

2115
01:56:21,040 --> 01:56:22,960
Speaker 1: a lot over the over the years because some areas

2116
01:56:22,960 --> 01:56:25,240
Speaker 1: of the country don't have the benefit of any broadband.

2117
01:56:25,280 --> 01:56:27,280
Speaker 1: What is this particular issue all about.

2118
01:56:29,160 --> 01:56:30,880
Speaker 7: Yeah, Brian, this is something we talked about from the

2119
01:56:30,960 --> 01:56:34,760
Speaker 7: day we started running basically for office. The big, large

2120
01:56:34,760 --> 01:56:38,520
Speaker 7: swath of the Second District in Ohio and other rural

2121
01:56:38,560 --> 01:56:42,840
Speaker 7: and Appalachian districts across the country don't have brought access

2122
01:56:42,960 --> 01:56:47,400
Speaker 7: to broadband. We have sponsored three bills to try to

2123
01:56:47,440 --> 01:56:51,200
Speaker 7: help with that. The biggest movement we've seen so far,

2124
01:56:51,280 --> 01:56:54,600
Speaker 7: and it's going to be helpful in the near future,

2125
01:56:54,720 --> 01:56:58,000
Speaker 7: is that forty two billion dollars that was allocated for

2126
01:56:58,440 --> 01:57:02,520
Speaker 7: the bad program for World Connectivity that's been sitting there

2127
01:57:02,560 --> 01:57:05,560
Speaker 7: for so long. It's because it was all dedicated just

2128
01:57:05,600 --> 01:57:08,480
Speaker 7: to fiber optic, which fiber optic is great and I

2129
01:57:08,560 --> 01:57:10,680
Speaker 7: love it, but it's very hard to get to and

2130
01:57:11,440 --> 01:57:13,760
Speaker 7: get that run in parts of the Second District, making

2131
01:57:13,800 --> 01:57:19,680
Speaker 7: those dollars usable on other alternative sources of broadband, whether

2132
01:57:19,720 --> 01:57:22,640
Speaker 7: it's satellite or sixth wireless. So there's been big advances

2133
01:57:22,680 --> 01:57:25,440
Speaker 7: in sixth wireless. Too. Used to be, you know, it

2134
01:57:25,560 --> 01:57:28,000
Speaker 7: was easily blocked and you had that pretty clear line

2135
01:57:28,000 --> 01:57:31,880
Speaker 7: of sight to use that effectively. But that's not the

2136
01:57:31,920 --> 01:57:34,320
Speaker 7: case anymore. So bottom line is, we don't want to

2137
01:57:34,360 --> 01:57:38,120
Speaker 7: wait five more years for the people of Appalachia to

2138
01:57:38,240 --> 01:57:40,280
Speaker 7: get connected to the modern economy. We want to do

2139
01:57:40,360 --> 01:57:43,400
Speaker 7: it as quickly as possible. So that's been great. And

2140
01:57:44,200 --> 01:57:46,480
Speaker 7: while we're on that topic, it's important that I think

2141
01:57:46,840 --> 01:57:49,320
Speaker 7: Senator Houston for the work he did for part of

2142
01:57:49,400 --> 01:57:51,480
Speaker 7: my district, a large chunk of my district while he

2143
01:57:51,640 --> 01:57:55,840
Speaker 7: was still lieutenant governor. Who's he's and he's continuing that

2144
01:57:55,960 --> 01:58:00,000
Speaker 7: work here. He's been being center Marino have been absolutely

2145
01:58:00,120 --> 01:58:00,840
Speaker 7: incredible out here.

2146
01:58:01,680 --> 01:58:03,560
Speaker 1: I'm glad to hear that. You know, the LAFT never

2147
01:58:03,680 --> 01:58:07,160
Speaker 1: really seems to care much about the rural poor, because

2148
01:58:07,240 --> 01:58:10,400
Speaker 1: I suppose that's these evil flyover red states, So screw them.

2149
01:58:10,440 --> 01:58:12,560
Speaker 1: They only care about urban poor. And there's millions and

2150
01:58:12,640 --> 01:58:15,760
Speaker 1: millions of dollars flowing that are provided to urban governments

2151
01:58:15,840 --> 01:58:18,160
Speaker 1: and urban programs, and no one just seems to care

2152
01:58:18,200 --> 01:58:20,919
Speaker 1: about those folks out and like say rural West Virginia

2153
01:58:21,040 --> 01:58:22,520
Speaker 1: for example, Congressman.

2154
01:58:23,360 --> 01:58:25,960
Speaker 6: For sure, any of my a big chunk of my

2155
01:58:26,040 --> 01:58:29,800
Speaker 6: district borders on on West Virginia too, and they're in

2156
01:58:29,840 --> 01:58:32,720
Speaker 6: the same situation we're in in Kentucky. As well, and

2157
01:58:32,840 --> 01:58:35,240
Speaker 6: it's an out of sight, out of mind saying. And

2158
01:58:35,280 --> 01:58:37,920
Speaker 6: they're the kind of people that don't complain. They were

2159
01:58:37,920 --> 01:58:39,920
Speaker 6: the kind of people call them to make do, people

2160
01:58:40,000 --> 01:58:42,720
Speaker 6: that make do with whatever they got, and they don't.

2161
01:58:42,920 --> 01:58:45,920
Speaker 6: They don't complain. But I'm going to complain for them

2162
01:58:45,920 --> 01:58:47,960
Speaker 6: a peero, try to get them least on equal.

2163
01:58:47,800 --> 01:58:51,960
Speaker 1: Footing, understood, understood. And because it benefits those rural poor,

2164
01:58:52,120 --> 01:58:54,080
Speaker 1: it's not going to benefit the Democrat Party, So I

2165
01:58:54,160 --> 01:58:56,400
Speaker 1: have a feeling they'll be against it, even though they

2166
01:58:56,440 --> 01:58:58,600
Speaker 1: could just sort of recharacterize it and they'd be all

2167
01:58:58,800 --> 01:59:01,160
Speaker 1: about providing this type of service to the extent of

2168
01:59:01,320 --> 01:59:05,080
Speaker 1: benefit of Democrat voters. Congressman David Taylor, it's a real

2169
01:59:05,120 --> 01:59:07,840
Speaker 1: pleasure having you on. I appreciate your your again, your

2170
01:59:07,880 --> 01:59:09,920
Speaker 1: willingness to show up and talk about these issues very

2171
01:59:09,920 --> 01:59:12,680
Speaker 1: important to my listeners, and I'm glad to be able

2172
01:59:12,720 --> 01:59:14,320
Speaker 1: to help you spread the word on it. Keep up

2173
01:59:14,360 --> 01:59:16,280
Speaker 1: the great work on behalf of the American taxpayer.

2174
01:59:16,360 --> 01:59:19,760
Speaker 7: My friend, thank you, great being with you, and I

2175

Speaker 1: And you know not to labor the point, but I'm

2187
01:59:50,800 --> 01:59:52,920
Speaker 1: I'm sitting in my living room and all of a sudden,

2188
01:59:52,960 --> 01:59:56,920
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, I hear Jay Ratliffe. Where the hell's that

2189
01:59:57,040 --> 01:59:59,200
Speaker 1: voice coming from? My son was taking your one of

Speaker 1: your classes. I love he's loving that. By the way,

2191
02:00:03,840 --> 02:00:06,960
Speaker 1: he is all over. My son's one of Jay's students.

2192
02:00:07,080 --> 02:00:10,440
Speaker 8: Anyway, as long as as long as people follow the rules,

2193
02:00:10,480 --> 02:00:15,160
Speaker 8: were in good ship followed like you. Your voice follows you.

2194
02:00:15,440 --> 02:00:18,680
Speaker 8: Sherry and I are at the Sand Pearl in Clearwater

2195
02:00:18,720 --> 02:00:21,160
Speaker 8: and I'm going up in elevator and some lady who

2196
02:00:21,200 --> 02:00:23,720
Speaker 8: looks at me and says, are you from Cincinnati? And

2197
02:00:23,880 --> 02:00:26,760
Speaker 8: I said, yeah, She goes, I'm going to recognize your voice.

2198
02:00:26,840 --> 02:00:30,400
Speaker 8: So yeah, you can't get away with stuff where we're at.

2199
02:00:30,400 --> 02:00:32,040
Speaker 8: I'm I'm glad. It was a good day for me.

2200
02:00:32,200 --> 02:00:35,760
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, amen, brother, all right. The fastest growing airline

2201
02:00:35,800 --> 02:00:39,080
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty six. Drum roll, Maestro Jay Ratliffe.

2202
02:00:39,560 --> 02:00:43,360
Speaker 8: Up forty one percent. We have him in Cincinnati. It's

2203
02:00:43,440 --> 02:00:47,920
Speaker 8: Breeze Airways. Breeze Breeze yep. They started operations in twenty

2204
02:00:48,000 --> 02:00:51,440
Speaker 8: twenty one, low cost carrier bringing in brand new airplanes.

2205
02:00:52,040 --> 02:00:55,640
Speaker 8: They started their operation at the beginning at twenty twenty one.

2206
02:00:56,320 --> 02:00:58,040
Speaker 8: They joined US three years ago. I think it was

2207
02:00:58,040 --> 02:01:01,919
Speaker 8: February of three years ago, and since then they've continue

2208
02:01:01,960 --> 02:01:06,000
Speaker 8: to expand their network. They've added international service and based

2209
02:01:06,120 --> 02:01:10,680
Speaker 8: on the scheduled service from Aviation Analytics from last year

2210
02:01:10,760 --> 02:01:13,520
Speaker 8: to this year, they're operating forty one percent more flights

2211
02:01:13,680 --> 02:01:17,240
Speaker 8: now in early twenty twenty six that they did last year.

2212
02:01:17,720 --> 02:01:20,960
Speaker 8: And again, they started Cincinnati three years ago, they've grown since.

2213
02:01:21,720 --> 02:01:25,280
Speaker 8: They now provide service to five cities. I think it's Charleston,

2214
02:01:25,400 --> 02:01:28,200
Speaker 8: San Francisco, and then we get seasonal service to Hartford,

2215
02:01:28,280 --> 02:01:30,760
Speaker 8: Providence and one of my all time favorites at San Diego.

2216
02:01:31,400 --> 02:01:34,680
Speaker 8: And the man that started this airline started jet Blue,

2217
02:01:34,760 --> 02:01:38,040
Speaker 8: which we've heard of, also started west Jet, the low

2218
02:01:38,120 --> 02:01:42,200
Speaker 8: cost carrier in Canada. And I think one of his

2219
02:01:42,360 --> 02:01:44,520
Speaker 8: kids may go to school somewhere in the Dayton area,

2220
02:01:44,600 --> 02:01:48,560
Speaker 8: but in college. But they are constantly growing. And I

2221
02:01:48,680 --> 02:01:51,480
Speaker 8: hear from so many people across the country that said,

2222
02:01:51,880 --> 02:01:54,000
Speaker 8: my wife made a reservation on some airline. I've never

2223
02:01:54,080 --> 02:01:56,560
Speaker 8: heard of breeze. What do you think. I said, well, look,

2224
02:01:56,880 --> 02:02:00,160
Speaker 8: I've got nothing but high marks to say, but go

2225
02:02:00,240 --> 02:02:01,760
Speaker 8: back to me after your trip and let me know.

2226
02:02:02,000 --> 02:02:04,680
Speaker 8: And I hear from people constantly saying, oh my gosh,

2227
02:02:05,360 --> 02:02:07,200
Speaker 8: we had a great time. They treated us great, the

2228
02:02:07,320 --> 02:02:09,920
Speaker 8: fairs were great, and I wish everybody else could be

2229
02:02:10,080 --> 02:02:12,160
Speaker 8: like this. So yeah, I'm thrilled that we've got them

2230
02:02:12,200 --> 02:02:13,720
Speaker 8: in Cincinnati and that they continue to.

2231
02:02:13,720 --> 02:02:16,320
Speaker 1: Grow well, and growth means maybe adding more cities. And

2232
02:02:16,320 --> 02:02:17,960
Speaker 1: I guess I'm just kind of puzzling over that was

2233
02:02:18,000 --> 02:02:22,360
Speaker 1: a pretty random disparate number of a selection of cities.

2234
02:02:22,800 --> 02:02:24,440
Speaker 1: I guess I don't need to get getting the weeds

2235
02:02:24,440 --> 02:02:25,920
Speaker 1: on it, but it seems like a weird how do

2236
02:02:25,960 --> 02:02:28,120
Speaker 1: they arrive at those cities as opposed to some of

2237
02:02:28,160 --> 02:02:29,280
Speaker 1: the other ones that we might think of.

2238
02:02:30,120 --> 02:02:33,960
Speaker 8: The analytics that they go through, or they determined where

2239
02:02:33,960 --> 02:02:36,840
Speaker 8: are people flying to out of this market. And I

2240
02:02:36,880 --> 02:02:39,080
Speaker 8: can tell you all the different stops that I had

2241
02:02:40,560 --> 02:02:43,879
Speaker 8: in the airline industry. If I was in a specific

2242
02:02:44,000 --> 02:02:45,560
Speaker 8: city and there was a lot of people that were

2243
02:02:45,600 --> 02:02:49,240
Speaker 8: flying from our city through a connection city to let's say,

2244
02:02:49,320 --> 02:02:52,040
Speaker 8: you know, Boston, the airline said, well, if we got

2245
02:02:52,080 --> 02:02:54,840
Speaker 8: that many people, what if we did a NonStop from

2246
02:02:54,840 --> 02:02:57,080
Speaker 8: that city to Boston versus everybody being forced to go

2247
02:02:57,160 --> 02:03:00,400
Speaker 8: through Atlanta or whatever the city it was happened to be.

2248
02:03:00,640 --> 02:03:03,120
Speaker 8: And they will put that service in after they've done

2249
02:03:03,400 --> 02:03:07,120
Speaker 8: an extensive survey, and if the market supports it. Instead

2250
02:03:07,120 --> 02:03:09,320
Speaker 8: of one flight today, they may give them two flights today.

2251
02:03:09,680 --> 02:03:11,520
Speaker 8: It was a lot like when comm Air was here.

2252
02:03:11,920 --> 02:03:16,360
Speaker 8: They decided to run a flight to Manchester and they thought, well,

2253
02:03:16,760 --> 02:03:19,920
Speaker 8: it's thirty minutes or whatever it is from Boston, so

2254
02:03:20,320 --> 02:03:23,040
Speaker 8: let's try it. And it was so well received. I

2255
02:03:23,120 --> 02:03:24,640
Speaker 8: think at the peak there might have been five or

2256
02:03:24,680 --> 02:03:27,920
Speaker 8: six flights a day back and forth between Cincinnati and

2257
02:03:29,280 --> 02:03:31,360
Speaker 8: there and back. And you know, when you look at it,

2258
02:03:31,760 --> 02:03:34,280
Speaker 8: it was great to see because all they're doing is

2259
02:03:34,400 --> 02:03:37,000
Speaker 8: providing service to where people want to fly. And that's

2260
02:03:37,040 --> 02:03:40,080
Speaker 8: what Breeze and other carriers are doing. Likewise, if they

2261
02:03:40,160 --> 02:03:43,880
Speaker 8: start to see the services a little bit soft, airlines

2262
02:03:43,920 --> 02:03:46,440
Speaker 8: will cancel some of their flights or they will use

2263
02:03:46,520 --> 02:03:49,520
Speaker 8: smaller airplanes to do so. So that's one of the

2264
02:03:49,560 --> 02:03:51,480
Speaker 8: things that they're always looking at it saying, look, if

2265
02:03:51,480 --> 02:03:53,520
Speaker 8: we're flying too big of an airplane, let's put a

2266
02:03:53,560 --> 02:03:55,960
Speaker 8: smaller airplane in there so we can maintain the service.

2267
02:03:56,200 --> 02:03:59,000
Speaker 8: Or it's dropped off so much that instead of four

2268
02:03:59,040 --> 02:04:00,920
Speaker 8: flights a day, let's go with three flights or two

2269
02:04:01,000 --> 02:04:04,160
Speaker 8: flights today. And you know that's we've seen delta in

2270
02:04:04,200 --> 02:04:06,760
Speaker 8: American I think United also do that here, giving us

2271
02:04:06,800 --> 02:04:10,880
Speaker 8: bigger airplanes in some markets because the demand continues to

2272
02:04:10,960 --> 02:04:12,600
Speaker 8: increase and they want to respond to that.

2273
02:04:13,160 --> 02:04:15,120
Speaker 1: Fair enough, we'll pause, bring Jay rylif back. Que a

2274
02:04:15,120 --> 02:04:16,960
Speaker 1: few different topics to talk with Jay about, as is

2275
02:04:17,000 --> 02:04:19,920
Speaker 1: always the case, including sounds like a stack of stupid

2276
02:04:19,960 --> 02:04:24,280
Speaker 1: story from a Friday intoxicated passenger removing his clothes during

2277
02:04:24,320 --> 02:04:26,000
Speaker 1: a flight. More with Jay rylf It at eight thirty

2282
02:04:38,560 --> 02:04:43,960
Speaker 1: has i heeart media aviation expert. All right, before we

2283
02:04:44,040 --> 02:04:47,080
Speaker 1: get to the naked guy. Uh, let's what's the story

2284
02:04:47,160 --> 02:04:50,960
Speaker 1: with Air India grounding it's Boeing sevent eighty seven Dreamliners.

2285
02:04:51,120 --> 02:04:53,360
Speaker 1: Is this represented maybe a broader problem? Jay?

2286
02:04:54,000 --> 02:04:56,400
Speaker 8: Yeah, Yeah. What they're saying is that they've they've seen

2287
02:04:56,520 --> 02:05:01,800
Speaker 8: reports of issues with the fuel control switch, so because

2288
02:05:01,960 --> 02:05:04,840
Speaker 8: they're saying it to defect, but really what we're looking

2289
02:05:04,880 --> 02:05:07,880
Speaker 8: at is the possibility of a problem. So they're airing

2290
02:05:07,960 --> 02:05:10,200
Speaker 8: on the side of caution and they have grounded their

2291
02:05:10,960 --> 02:05:13,280
Speaker 8: fleet of I think thirty eight of these Boeing seven

2292
02:05:13,320 --> 02:05:16,640
Speaker 8: eighty seven Dreamliners. So Boeing and the FAA are looking

2293
02:05:17,000 --> 02:05:19,080
Speaker 8: into this to see if there's any reports or any

2294
02:05:19,160 --> 02:05:23,480
Speaker 8: issues that would support the need for advising other airlines

2295
02:05:23,520 --> 02:05:25,839
Speaker 8: of the countries around the world that would be operating.

2296
02:05:25,880 --> 02:05:28,360
Speaker 8: I think we've got just over eleven hundred of these

2297
02:05:28,360 --> 02:05:31,640
Speaker 8: airplanes that are flying right now around the world, so

2298
02:05:32,040 --> 02:05:34,520
Speaker 8: if there is an issue there, we'll look at it.

2299
02:05:34,560 --> 02:05:36,920
Speaker 8: Of course, Air India had that horrific crash last year

2300
02:05:38,080 --> 02:05:41,120
Speaker 8: where one of the crew members apparently turned off the

2301
02:05:41,320 --> 02:05:45,600
Speaker 8: fuel that caused it to crash. So I don't know

2302
02:05:45,680 --> 02:05:48,600
Speaker 8: if this is something where that I don't know. I mean,

2303
02:05:48,720 --> 02:05:51,360
Speaker 8: you look at it legally, you look at it operationally,

2304
02:05:51,400 --> 02:05:54,040
Speaker 8: and there's a lot of questions that swirl. But at

2305
02:05:54,080 --> 02:05:56,840
Speaker 8: this point in time, no other airlines have reported this,

2306
02:05:57,000 --> 02:05:58,560
Speaker 8: so I mean, obviously we'll keep an eye on it

2307
02:05:58,600 --> 02:05:59,280
Speaker 8: and see where it goes.

2308
02:05:59,400 --> 02:06:03,520
Speaker 1: Well, it's like a I suppose the FAA is sort

2309
02:06:03,520 --> 02:06:05,840
Speaker 1: of in a position of like a car manufacturer. They

2310
02:06:06,200 --> 02:06:08,760
Speaker 1: determined whether there's going to be a recall or like

2311
02:06:08,920 --> 02:06:11,200
Speaker 1: issue a technical service bulletin kind of thing.

2312
02:06:12,360 --> 02:06:12,560
Speaker 6: Yeah.

2313
02:06:12,880 --> 02:06:15,440
Speaker 8: Yeah, And the way it works is we had a

2314
02:06:15,520 --> 02:06:19,560
Speaker 8: Southwest Airlines flight that had an uncontrolled engine failure where

2315
02:06:19,960 --> 02:06:22,600
Speaker 8: the engine just kind of fell, came apart in flight

2316
02:06:23,160 --> 02:06:26,720
Speaker 8: and actually pierced the side of the aircraft and forced

2317
02:06:26,720 --> 02:06:31,600
Speaker 8: an emergency landing in Pensacola. And when the NTSB did

2318
02:06:31,680 --> 02:06:34,680
Speaker 8: their their work, which is again they're the all star team,

2319
02:06:34,720 --> 02:06:38,320
Speaker 8: they said, oops, part of this engines is reaching a

2320
02:06:38,360 --> 02:06:41,440
Speaker 8: point of fatigue faster than we thought. So the NTSB

2321
02:06:41,680 --> 02:06:45,360
Speaker 8: told the FAA our recommendation has had these engines inspected immediately.

2322
02:06:46,120 --> 02:06:48,840
Speaker 8: So that's what the FAA can or cannot do, and

2323
02:06:48,960 --> 02:06:53,880
Speaker 8: instead they looked at the airlines and said, well, maybe

2324
02:06:53,960 --> 02:06:56,000
Speaker 8: we can recommend that you do it, but we're not

2325
02:06:56,080 --> 02:06:58,960
Speaker 8: going to mandate it. It's totally up to you. Even

2326
02:06:59,000 --> 02:07:01,600
Speaker 8: when the indiine engine manufacturer came along and said, wait

2327
02:07:01,640 --> 02:07:04,280
Speaker 8: a minute, we also agree with the NTSB, these need

2328
02:07:04,360 --> 02:07:08,640
Speaker 8: to be inspected. Now, the FAA again said we're going

2329
02:07:08,680 --> 02:07:11,280
Speaker 8: to leave it up to the airlines. Eighteen months later,

2330
02:07:11,400 --> 02:07:14,080
Speaker 8: the same thing happened over Pennsylvania and a passenger was killed.

2331
02:07:14,200 --> 02:07:17,400
Speaker 8: So a lot of times I grow really frustrated with

2332
02:07:18,120 --> 02:07:20,840
Speaker 8: the FAA. I'm not saying yielding to the pressure of

2333
02:07:20,920 --> 02:07:23,640
Speaker 8: the airline lobbying group, because there was a great deal

2334
02:07:23,680 --> 02:07:28,920
Speaker 8: of cost associated with those engine inspections, but sometimes they're

2335
02:07:29,000 --> 02:07:31,120
Speaker 8: kind of slow, and sometimes there needs to be an

2336
02:07:31,120 --> 02:07:33,640
Speaker 8: accident or a near accident before we do things that

2337
02:07:33,760 --> 02:07:35,920
Speaker 8: need to be done, which again shouldn't be the case,

2338
02:07:36,000 --> 02:07:39,760
Speaker 8: but history shows that, sadly, that tends to be what happens.

2339
02:07:40,160 --> 02:07:43,880
Speaker 1: Oh gee, and here's the Federal Aviation Emission agreeing with

2340
02:07:44,000 --> 02:07:47,360
Speaker 1: the NTSB that, woops, we screwed up our decision to

2341
02:07:47,440 --> 02:07:50,320
Speaker 1: allow helicopter routes to operate near a runway at Reagan

2342
02:07:50,400 --> 02:07:55,920
Speaker 1: National Airport was a really stupid idea. Whoops, sorry, are bad?

2343
02:07:56,160 --> 02:07:59,760
Speaker 8: Right, Yeah, it's sad to see that, especially when you

2344
02:07:59,840 --> 02:08:03,839
Speaker 8: have so many indications of possible problems where it's obvious

2345
02:08:03,920 --> 02:08:07,720
Speaker 8: something's up, something's going wrong, and it's a matter of

2346
02:08:07,800 --> 02:08:10,240
Speaker 8: how many near missus do we need to have in

2347
02:08:10,320 --> 02:08:13,240
Speaker 8: the thousands and thousands and thousands before somebody says, you know,

2348
02:08:13,600 --> 02:08:17,920
Speaker 8: we're on borrowed time here. But you know, sometimes logistically

2349
02:08:18,000 --> 02:08:21,200
Speaker 8: from an operational standpoint, there is sometimes only so much

2350
02:08:21,280 --> 02:08:24,840
Speaker 8: you can do, but there's always options. You can either

2351
02:08:24,880 --> 02:08:27,240
Speaker 8: throttle back on the number of flights going through an area,

2352
02:08:28,000 --> 02:08:31,080
Speaker 8: or you can change certain arrival departure patterns, or in

2353
02:08:31,160 --> 02:08:34,440
Speaker 8: that case, stop the military flights from going across the

2354
02:08:34,560 --> 02:08:37,560
Speaker 8: river there like they were doing both in training and transportation.

2355
02:08:38,200 --> 02:08:41,080
Speaker 8: And it was a very very slow process, which again

2356
02:08:41,320 --> 02:08:44,000
Speaker 8: we had to have the crash before the focus was

2357
02:08:44,080 --> 02:08:47,120
Speaker 8: on there. And now the FA is looking at creating

2358
02:08:47,200 --> 02:08:51,080
Speaker 8: a separate safety board that is going to look at

2359
02:08:51,200 --> 02:08:54,400
Speaker 8: specific things to you know, kind of speed things along.

2360
02:08:54,520 --> 02:08:57,960
Speaker 8: Now I would have thought just making the FAA better

2361
02:08:58,360 --> 02:09:00,560
Speaker 8: at what they did, if they needed moreactors or what

2362
02:09:00,720 --> 02:09:03,520
Speaker 8: have you would have been the fix. But to have

2363
02:09:03,760 --> 02:09:07,800
Speaker 8: a separate entity there, I'm not really sure of at

2364
02:09:07,800 --> 02:09:09,880
Speaker 8: this point in time. But we'll see where it goes,

2365
02:09:09,880 --> 02:09:11,800
Speaker 8: because I don't know. It's a lot like having those

2366
02:09:11,840 --> 02:09:15,600
Speaker 8: committee meetings we've talked about where there were working on it, folks.

2367
02:09:15,680 --> 02:09:19,680
Speaker 8: We've got that committee that's going to be looking into it,

2368
02:09:19,720 --> 02:09:21,879
Speaker 8: blah blah. I mean, it's just it's it sounds political.

2369
02:09:22,600 --> 02:09:25,120
Speaker 1: It does sounds like just adding another layer of governments

2370
02:09:25,120 --> 02:09:27,080
Speaker 1: to make it look like they're doing something, and ultimately

2371
02:09:27,280 --> 02:09:28,760
Speaker 1: it's status quo.

2372
02:09:28,720 --> 02:09:31,920
Speaker 8: Which is what which was exactly how the TSA was born,

2373
02:09:32,040 --> 02:09:35,000
Speaker 8: because nine to eleven was not a process or a

2374
02:09:35,080 --> 02:09:38,640
Speaker 8: result of a lack of security. It was the protocol

2375
02:09:38,640 --> 02:09:41,240
Speaker 8: at the time. But to make people feel like we

2376
02:09:41,360 --> 02:09:44,480
Speaker 8: were addressing it, attacking it, we created an entire new

2377
02:09:45,040 --> 02:09:49,160
Speaker 8: government body that's got fifty thousand plus new federal employees.

2378
02:09:49,520 --> 02:09:53,520
Speaker 8: When George Bush did that as president, I thought, I understand,

2379
02:09:53,600 --> 02:09:55,880
Speaker 8: we need to act like we're doing something, but I

2380
02:09:56,040 --> 02:09:58,320
Speaker 8: don't think this is it. And I still, you know,

2381
02:09:58,760 --> 02:10:01,200
Speaker 8: I still agree that that wasn't the step to take.

2382
02:10:01,840 --> 02:10:03,720
Speaker 1: Hey, then, brother, all right, let's move over to the

2383
02:10:03,760 --> 02:10:06,840
Speaker 1: intoxicated passenger. I love these types of stories Jay makes up.

2384
02:10:06,920 --> 02:10:09,360
Speaker 1: He stack the stupid most notably on Friday. And since

2385
02:10:09,360 --> 02:10:12,960
Speaker 1: it involves naked guy, yeah it was.

2386
02:10:13,080 --> 02:10:16,120
Speaker 8: In fact, the passengers on board called this a thrilling situation,

2387
02:10:16,440 --> 02:10:19,000
Speaker 8: so I guess it was fun to watch. But it

2388
02:10:19,080 --> 02:10:21,880
Speaker 8: was during an Air Asia flight Vietnam to Thailand. You

2389
02:10:22,000 --> 02:10:24,600
Speaker 8: got a guy on board that starts to get agitated,

2390
02:10:24,880 --> 02:10:26,560
Speaker 8: and he starts walking up down the aisle saying he

2391
02:10:26,560 --> 02:10:28,800
Speaker 8: wants off the airplane. Yeah, no problem, and it's not

2392
02:10:28,840 --> 02:10:30,480
Speaker 8: like he can pull over to the curb and let

2393
02:10:30,640 --> 02:10:33,120
Speaker 8: him step out. But he gets into this fit and

2394
02:10:33,160 --> 02:10:34,880
Speaker 8: he starts tearing off his clothes all the way down

2395
02:10:34,920 --> 02:10:38,360
Speaker 8: to his underwear, and they finally got the guy subdued

2396
02:10:38,480 --> 02:10:41,240
Speaker 8: enough where he would sit. The plane lands, he jumps

2397
02:10:41,320 --> 02:10:43,680
Speaker 8: up and runs out the front door, and instead of

2398
02:10:43,680 --> 02:10:46,200
Speaker 8: going down the jet bridge into the airport, he busts

2399
02:10:46,200 --> 02:10:48,760
Speaker 8: through the door and goes down the steps to the ramp.

2400
02:10:48,880 --> 02:10:51,960
Speaker 8: Now he's thinking nobody's watching him and nobody can see him,

2401
02:10:52,000 --> 02:10:54,840
Speaker 8: so he jumps under a truck, a fuel truck, like

2402
02:10:55,000 --> 02:10:57,040
Speaker 8: nobody's gonna see him, and I'm sure his legs were

2403
02:10:57,080 --> 02:10:59,560
Speaker 8: hanging out too, so it's not like nobody's not going

2404
02:10:59,640 --> 02:11:02,400
Speaker 8: to see hm. The police were quickly there, obviously and

2405
02:11:02,440 --> 02:11:06,160
Speaker 8: got him arrested. Alcohol was certainly involved, I think in

2406
02:11:06,280 --> 02:11:09,560
Speaker 8: excess here. But he's he's arrested and we'll see where

2407
02:11:09,600 --> 02:11:12,280
Speaker 8: it goes from there. But the passengers on board, did

2408
02:11:12,320 --> 02:11:13,440
Speaker 8: they once feel threatened?

2409
02:11:13,560 --> 02:11:13,600
Speaker 7: No.

2410
02:11:13,800 --> 02:11:16,440
Speaker 8: The word they kept using was it was thrilling. So

2411
02:11:16,520 --> 02:11:18,400
Speaker 8: I guess he was on board entertainment. I don't know.

2412
02:11:19,200 --> 02:11:23,240
Speaker 1: Sometimes that's the circus sideshow of life. Jay Ratlift, We'll pause,

2413
02:11:23,240 --> 02:11:23,880
Speaker 1: will bring Jay back.

2414
02:11:24,120 --> 02:11:26,800
Speaker 8: It's like, yeah, it's like the woman in Fort Lauderdale

2415
02:11:26,880 --> 02:11:29,360
Speaker 8: years ago was walking through the airport slowly taking off

2416
02:11:29,400 --> 02:11:32,160
Speaker 8: her clothes every fifteen twenty steps. A lot of men

2417
02:11:32,240 --> 02:11:33,520
Speaker 8: consider that thrilling as well.

2418
02:11:34,880 --> 02:11:37,960
Speaker 1: Maybe even some women don't. Away, we have a couple

2419
02:11:37,960 --> 02:11:39,880
Speaker 1: more topics go and of course get a hub delay,

2420
02:11:40,280 --> 02:11:41,960
Speaker 1: as we always do at the end of the segment

2421
02:11:42,000 --> 02:11:48,400
Speaker 1: with Jay Ratlift. One more stick around fifty five KRC Men, Trump, Hey,

2422
02:11:48,480 --> 02:11:51,640
Speaker 1: forty eight Happy Friday Eve tomorrow on the fifty five

2423
02:11:51,720 --> 02:11:55,280
Speaker 1: KRC Morning show Tech Friday with Dave Hatter and Congressman

2424
02:11:55,360 --> 02:11:59,000
Speaker 1: Warren Davidson returns tomorrow. I accidently called Congressman Taylor Congressman

2425
02:11:59,040 --> 02:12:01,680
Speaker 1: Davidson earlier. He didn't mind that that was actually a compliment.

2426
02:12:01,760 --> 02:12:04,160
Speaker 1: But that's tomorrow and today we are talking as we

2427
02:12:04,200 --> 02:12:07,000
Speaker 1: always close out the show three segments with iHeartMedia aviation

2428
02:12:07,120 --> 02:12:12,520
Speaker 1: expert Jay Ratlos. The new mandate not two hours of

2429
02:12:12,640 --> 02:12:16,720
Speaker 1: cockpit recording, but twenty five hours, which sounds we're talking

2430
02:12:16,720 --> 02:12:19,280
Speaker 1: about the cockpit flight recording, Jay.

2431
02:12:19,280 --> 02:12:22,280
Speaker 8: Yeah, one of the two block boxes is the cockpit

2432
02:12:22,400 --> 02:12:26,040
Speaker 8: voice recorder of the CBR, and it's on a loop

2433
02:12:26,080 --> 02:12:29,760
Speaker 8: of two hours, and the National Transportation Safety Board for

2434
02:12:29,880 --> 02:12:33,440
Speaker 8: a number of years has told the FAA, look, we

2435
02:12:33,600 --> 02:12:35,760
Speaker 8: need more than two hours when we're doing an investigation

2436
02:12:35,800 --> 02:12:40,440
Speaker 8: because sometimes we need more because of what's going on

2437
02:12:40,600 --> 02:12:44,480
Speaker 8: during the flight, and having a short two hour loop

2438
02:12:44,880 --> 02:12:47,280
Speaker 8: is just not enough, and they wanted something twenty five

2439
02:12:47,360 --> 02:12:50,400
Speaker 8: hours or so. So it finally got to the point

2440
02:12:50,480 --> 02:12:52,960
Speaker 8: after I think the NTSB has been asking for this

2441
02:12:53,120 --> 02:12:56,160
Speaker 8: since twenty eighteen, and it was last Friday that the

2442
02:12:56,200 --> 02:12:58,840
Speaker 8: Fighter Aviation Administration said, Okay, we are going to now

2443
02:12:59,240 --> 02:13:02,560
Speaker 8: finalize our rule to require cockpit voice recorders to retain

2444
02:13:02,680 --> 02:13:06,360
Speaker 8: twenty five hours of data for all passenger planes. I

2445
02:13:06,480 --> 02:13:09,840
Speaker 8: believe beginning next year in twenty twenty seven, and they're

2446
02:13:09,840 --> 02:13:11,800
Speaker 8: going to replace that with that two hour loop. This

2447
02:13:11,960 --> 02:13:15,960
Speaker 8: is already being done in Europe where airlines or airplanes

2448
02:13:16,000 --> 02:13:19,480
Speaker 8: are designed to collect that twenty five hours of the

2449
02:13:19,640 --> 02:13:21,840
Speaker 8: voice recordings. They've been doing that for three or four years,

2450
02:13:22,560 --> 02:13:24,920
Speaker 8: maybe five at this point in time. So I'm really

2451
02:13:24,960 --> 02:13:28,120
Speaker 8: pleased that the FA's taking this needed step because all

2452
02:13:28,160 --> 02:13:31,560
Speaker 8: it's going to do is make it easier for them

2453
02:13:31,600 --> 02:13:34,480
Speaker 8: to do their job. And again, they're the all star team.

2454
02:13:34,520 --> 02:13:36,920
Speaker 8: Anytime we've got an accident or near accident, that's the

2455
02:13:37,000 --> 02:13:40,320
Speaker 8: team that's dispatched to investigate it. They learn a lot,

2456
02:13:40,480 --> 02:13:42,520
Speaker 8: and then they turn those findings over to the FAA,

2457
02:13:42,640 --> 02:13:45,920
Speaker 8: who can, if they so choose, implement some of the

2458
02:13:46,000 --> 02:13:49,280
Speaker 8: changes that have been recommended after the investigations concluded.

2459
02:13:49,440 --> 02:13:52,160
Speaker 1: Well, I can only imagine the two hour requirement was

2460
02:13:52,200 --> 02:13:54,520
Speaker 1: back in the days when maybe data storage was really

2461
02:13:54,600 --> 02:13:57,480
Speaker 1: expensive or something, but in these modern times, I mean

2462
02:13:58,640 --> 02:13:59,240
Speaker 1: data storage.

2463
02:13:59,360 --> 02:14:04,600
Speaker 8: Also, you look at how aviation was thirty forty fifty

2464
02:14:04,640 --> 02:14:08,200
Speaker 8: years ago too. Our loops were fine because what ended

2465
02:14:08,240 --> 02:14:10,480
Speaker 8: up taking place is most of the time the flights

2466
02:14:10,520 --> 02:14:13,840
Speaker 8: were short segments where most of the flights were at

2467
02:14:14,000 --> 02:14:16,680
Speaker 8: under two hours, because you know, before the days of

2468
02:14:17,400 --> 02:14:20,600
Speaker 8: the hub and spoke distribution, you'd have a flight from

2469
02:14:20,680 --> 02:14:23,040
Speaker 8: Cincinnati to the West coast. It might make three stops

2470
02:14:23,080 --> 02:14:25,760
Speaker 8: or four stops. It was still a direct flight. It

2471
02:14:25,880 --> 02:14:28,720
Speaker 8: was not NonStop to the ultimate destination, but it would

2472
02:14:28,760 --> 02:14:31,400
Speaker 8: make several stops in between. So you know, two hours

2473
02:14:31,720 --> 02:14:36,480
Speaker 8: was something that was okay. Pilots haven't been incredibly excited

2474
02:14:36,480 --> 02:14:39,040
Speaker 8: about that because they feel like the airlines could use

2475
02:14:39,200 --> 02:14:41,720
Speaker 8: that if they wanted to try to get rid of

2476
02:14:41,800 --> 02:14:44,480
Speaker 8: somebody that's making a lot of money under some little

2477
02:14:44,840 --> 02:14:48,160
Speaker 8: technicality of some kind. So there's concern on their part.

2478
02:14:48,240 --> 02:14:50,880
Speaker 8: But again, the FAA is moving forward with this and

2479
02:14:51,080 --> 02:14:52,160
Speaker 8: I'm very pleased.

2480
02:14:51,880 --> 02:14:53,960
Speaker 1: To see it, and the FAA is on the job

2481
02:14:54,040 --> 02:14:56,000
Speaker 1: looking into a close call this one at the San

2482
02:14:56,040 --> 02:14:58,320
Speaker 1: Antonio Airport. What's the story behind this one? Jay?

2483
02:14:58,840 --> 02:15:02,400
Speaker 8: We had a sound off West flight that was cleared

2484
02:15:02,440 --> 02:15:08,040
Speaker 8: for takeoff and it started rolling down the runway increasing speed.

2485
02:15:08,480 --> 02:15:11,320
Speaker 8: But then we had a small, smaller aircraft General Aviation

2486
02:15:11,520 --> 02:15:13,720
Speaker 8: at the other end of the runway that took a

2487
02:15:13,840 --> 02:15:17,240
Speaker 8: wrong turn onto that active runway and was actually turned

2488
02:15:17,800 --> 02:15:22,160
Speaker 8: and taxing somewhat slowly. Towards the Southwest plane, so we've

2489
02:15:22,160 --> 02:15:25,040
Speaker 8: got two planes pointed at each other. An air traffic

2490
02:15:25,120 --> 02:15:29,520
Speaker 8: controller spotted this smaller airplane and immediately ordered Southwest to

2491
02:15:29,640 --> 02:15:32,880
Speaker 8: cancel their takeoff, and I mean the voice on the

2492
02:15:32,880 --> 02:15:37,040
Speaker 8: air traffic control tape. He was definitely trying to get

2493
02:15:37,120 --> 02:15:40,240
Speaker 8: Southwest's attention to try to stop their takeoff. They did.

2494
02:15:40,800 --> 02:15:43,000
Speaker 8: The two aircraft didn't come any closer than I think

2495
02:15:43,000 --> 02:15:46,040
Speaker 8: about two thousand feet, but still, when you've got one

2496
02:15:46,120 --> 02:15:48,440
Speaker 8: accelerating to more than one hundred and fifty miles an hour,

2497
02:15:48,560 --> 02:15:53,400
Speaker 8: that distance can be closed rapidly. So the FAA will

2498
02:15:53,440 --> 02:15:55,920
Speaker 8: be having a conversation, I am sure, with the pilot

2499
02:15:56,000 --> 02:15:58,960
Speaker 8: of that smaller aircraft. But this is just another one

2500
02:15:59,000 --> 02:16:02,880
Speaker 8: of these incidents, and they happen not frequently, well, they do,

2501
02:16:03,480 --> 02:16:06,680
Speaker 8: but the air traffic controllers do such a good job

2502
02:16:07,160 --> 02:16:09,800
Speaker 8: of making sure that if there's any ground equipment or

2503
02:16:09,840 --> 02:16:12,800
Speaker 8: any aircraft where it shouldn't be, they'll tell airplanes to

2504
02:16:12,840 --> 02:16:16,960
Speaker 8: go around to stop their taxi or take off. And

2505
02:16:17,120 --> 02:16:20,640
Speaker 8: even though they're understaffed, they do an incredible, incredible job,

2506
02:16:20,720 --> 02:16:23,200
Speaker 8: and that's one of the reasons I'm still very very

2507
02:16:23,320 --> 02:16:25,880
Speaker 8: pleased that President Trump has made it early in his

2508
02:16:25,920 --> 02:16:30,080
Speaker 8: administration a priority to fix that, to get the thousands

2509
02:16:30,120 --> 02:16:33,400
Speaker 8: and thousands of air traffic controllers that we need hired

2510
02:16:33,600 --> 02:16:36,200
Speaker 8: or trained quickly, so that in the next four or

2511
02:16:36,240 --> 02:16:38,600
Speaker 8: five years, because that's how long it takes to train everybody,

2512
02:16:39,000 --> 02:16:41,160
Speaker 8: get them back on the job. So these men and

2513
02:16:41,240 --> 02:16:44,320
Speaker 8: women don't have to work six seven hour or day

2514
02:16:44,400 --> 02:16:46,680
Speaker 8: work weeks. They can actually have a day off or

2515
02:16:46,840 --> 02:16:49,520
Speaker 8: oh my gosh, gas a weekend off. Yeah, and not

2516
02:16:49,640 --> 02:16:51,480
Speaker 8: be as exhausted as these people.

2517
02:16:51,280 --> 02:16:55,000
Speaker 1: Are right now, no question about it. That's a stressful job,

2518
02:16:55,160 --> 02:16:57,960
Speaker 1: as I think you certainly know that, all right. And

2519
02:16:58,080 --> 02:17:01,880
Speaker 1: before we get the hub delays, we have well, idiots

2520
02:17:01,920 --> 02:17:06,400
Speaker 1: doing idiot things because they're idiots, apparently, Jay, another laser incident.

2521
02:17:07,080 --> 02:17:10,959
Speaker 8: Yeah, Charlotte American Airlines thirty one fourteen final approach, when

2522
02:17:11,040 --> 02:17:14,039
Speaker 8: someone on the ground pointed one of these powerful handheld

2523
02:17:14,120 --> 02:17:16,440
Speaker 8: lasers at the plane. And you know, I've talked about

2524
02:17:16,440 --> 02:17:19,720
Speaker 8: it before. These lasers can actually cause temporary blindness to

2525
02:17:19,760 --> 02:17:22,360
Speaker 8: a flight crew because it hits the cockpit ceiling and

2526
02:17:22,440 --> 02:17:26,640
Speaker 8: it illuminates it to such an extent that they lose

2527
02:17:27,280 --> 02:17:29,800
Speaker 8: their site. In fact, we've had some pilots that had

2528
02:17:29,840 --> 02:17:33,480
Speaker 8: to retire because they've lost vision in an eye because

2529
02:17:33,520 --> 02:17:37,120
Speaker 8: of these laser attacks. The last year that we've seen

2530
02:17:37,320 --> 02:17:39,520
Speaker 8: a full year of report, I think was twenty twenty four.

2531
02:17:40,040 --> 02:17:43,080
Speaker 8: The FA had ten nine and ninety three of these

2532
02:17:43,200 --> 02:17:46,560
Speaker 8: laser strikes that were reported. And look, if you get

2533
02:17:46,640 --> 02:17:48,400
Speaker 8: caught with this, ye're talking about the thirty two thousand

2534
02:17:48,440 --> 02:17:51,240
Speaker 8: dollars minimum fine can reach up to two hundred and

2535
02:17:51,280 --> 02:17:53,680
Speaker 8: fifty thousand dollars and he can go to prison for

2536
02:17:53,840 --> 02:17:58,400
Speaker 8: five years. So it's stupid and sadly we don't catch

2537
02:17:58,640 --> 02:18:01,400
Speaker 8: enough of these people because once the aircraft is hit,

2538
02:18:01,800 --> 02:18:04,119
Speaker 8: as they're you know, at that critical moment of flight,

2539
02:18:04,280 --> 02:18:06,720
Speaker 8: take off the landing, for them to have to relay

2540
02:18:06,760 --> 02:18:10,080
Speaker 8: air air traffic controller where the idiot is. At many

2541
02:18:10,160 --> 02:18:12,400
Speaker 8: times it's you know, half a mile or a mile

2542
02:18:12,480 --> 02:18:14,560
Speaker 8: behind him at that point in time, and to give

2543
02:18:14,560 --> 02:18:17,480
Speaker 8: an exact location is very difficult. Now, we did have

2544
02:18:17,600 --> 02:18:20,800
Speaker 8: one of these people that experienced karma when he pointed

2545
02:18:20,840 --> 02:18:23,080
Speaker 8: one of these at a helicopter that was a sheriff's

2546
02:18:23,120 --> 02:18:25,880
Speaker 8: helicopter and they chased him down and got him, and

2547
02:18:26,000 --> 02:18:27,640
Speaker 8: I was glad for that. But if you ever see

2548
02:18:27,680 --> 02:18:31,160
Speaker 8: somebody that's acting in this kind of manner, please stopped him,

2549
02:18:31,160 --> 02:18:33,879
Speaker 8: because they're putting people's lives at risk when they're like, ooh,

2550
02:18:33,920 --> 02:18:35,760
Speaker 8: I wonder if I can you know, paint this airplane

2551
02:18:35,760 --> 02:18:38,840
Speaker 8: that's flying over because it can actually blind the pilots

2552
02:18:38,879 --> 02:18:40,840
Speaker 8: and cause a crash that could actually kill people.

2553
02:18:42,840 --> 02:18:45,440
Speaker 1: Anyhow, I don't understand people's actions some days.

2554
02:18:45,560 --> 02:18:48,240
Speaker 8: Finally, alcohols involved in Alcohol is involved.

2555
02:18:47,959 --> 02:18:49,039
Speaker 6: In some of those, my friends.

2556
02:18:49,520 --> 02:18:52,320
Speaker 1: You're right, yes, And finally, we always part company on

2557
02:18:52,360 --> 02:18:53,959
Speaker 1: hub delays. How's looking out there for air.

2558
02:18:53,879 --> 02:18:58,600
Speaker 8: Traveled y Chicago, Detroit, Tampa, Orlando weather delays. Was snow

2559
02:18:58,640 --> 02:19:00,360
Speaker 8: in the north and a lot of rain through the south.

2560
02:19:00,800 --> 02:19:03,120
Speaker 8: That's going to give us some weather related delays approaching

2561
02:19:03,160 --> 02:19:06,120
Speaker 8: an hour. But all in all pretty decent, I mean

2562
02:19:06,200 --> 02:19:09,240
Speaker 8: for February weather, so minimal delays and if you picked today,

2563
02:19:09,320 --> 02:19:10,200
Speaker 8: pretty good day to fly it.

2564
02:19:10,440 --> 02:19:12,160
Speaker 1: Jay Ryler, thank go for you. Love having you on

2565
02:19:12,200 --> 02:19:15,840
Speaker 1: the show. It's great information and sometimes quite comical. And

2566
02:19:16,240 --> 02:19:18,080
Speaker 1: look forward to having another talk with you next Thursday.

2567
02:19:18,200 --> 02:19:20,000
Speaker 1: Keep up the great work, my friend, and as always

2568
02:19:20,120 --> 02:19:21,959
Speaker 1: up as to health and loved you in your better

2569
02:19:22,040 --> 02:19:22,280
Speaker 1: half
