Aaron Winer Charter Committee Canada 22 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 1: for Sinceei City Council joins a program at seven thirty, 23 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 1: we'll hear about his plans for the Sinsint Police Apartment 24 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: and how his campaign is going. Fast forward to eight 25 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: oh five with the Inside Scoop Right Bart News White 26 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,479 Speaker 1: House correspondent Nick Gilbertson talking about the Trump Middle East 27 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: peace deal, which the world seems to be celebrating, and 28 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 1: rightfully so, I can only hope that we can parlay 29 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:49,639 Speaker 1: this into some sort of peace resolution between Russian and Ukraine, 30 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: which of course I'm going to be talking about with 31 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: this morning with Daniel Davis and the Deep Dive. Yes, 32 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: we will talk to him about the Middle East peace 33 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: but also the ongoing saga going on to Russian in Ukraine. 34 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 1: And I saw an article this morning, Politico article which 35 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: is absolutely insane. When I mean I listen to fog 36 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 1: of war. I don't know who to believe in terms 37 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:18,799 Speaker 1: of the number of casualties. And you want to read 38 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,919 Speaker 1: one site, you'll hear a X number of casualties between 39 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 1: Russian and Ukraine. You read another site and you get 40 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: a completely different picture. But all of the numbers, regardless 41 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 1: of which website, media outlet you're looking at, are crazy. 42 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,679 Speaker 1: Now I've been to the Washington d C. And I've 43 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 1: seen the Vietnam Memorial and my recollection is there are 44 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: fifty four fifty five thousand names of soldiers who perished 45 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: finding in the Vietnam War, not exactly a declared war. 46 00:02:52,200 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 1: I might interject, this is from Politico Russia loss. This 47 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 1: is just the first sentence. Russia lost two hundred and 48 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 1: eighty one thousand and five hundred and fifty soldiers in 49 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: the first eight months of this year. Two hundred and 50 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 1: eighty one thousand, five hundred and fifty soldiers. Now this 51 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 1: is a report, a document the Ukrainian intelligence say contain 52 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 1: leaked Russian data. So again, you know, recognizing what what 53 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: can you believe in? What you can't believe in the 54 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: world of news these days. Fine, but you know, Politico, 55 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 1: a left leaning website, I'll acknowledge this is data that 56 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: we got from the Ukrainian intelligence, which they say was 57 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: sourced from Russian intelligence. So you see how we're we're 58 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: walking down this sort of question mark path. The list, 59 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: which was recently published, shows the level of losses for 60 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: minimal battlefold battlefield gains, claiming that eighty six thousand, seven 61 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: hundred and forty four Russians were killed. You got almost 62 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: thirty four thousand missing, one hundred and fifty eight thousand 63 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:17,280 Speaker 1: and a half wounded, and twenty three hundred captured. Now 64 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: it's noted in politicals reporting that, you know, there's a 65 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 1: Russian media website called media Zona claimed to be skeptical 66 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: about the numbers, but it named more than one hundred 67 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: and thirty four thousand dead. So no, no, no, it's 68 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 1: not two hundred and eighty one thousand, five hundred since January. 69 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: It's only one hundred and thirty four thousand, So I 70 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 1: mean insane amounts of lives being lost. And then the 71 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: article goes on to talk about how Russia is having 72 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 1: a really hard problem recruiting people. Of course, you might 73 00:04:54,480 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: imagine Institute for the Study of War, which described as 74 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,599 Speaker 1: Washington Think, then estimated Russia is signing up an average 75 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: of thirty one thousand, six hundred soldiers a month but 76 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: suffering an average of thirty five thousand and ninety three 77 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: casualties a month, more casualties than a number of people 78 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:25,039 Speaker 1: that can even sign up. So again, I'm waving a 79 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,840 Speaker 1: red flag of you know, warning about the numbers, because 80 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: clearly you and I have no way of knowing. But 81 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 1: given the difference between you know, the Russian reporting and 82 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:44,160 Speaker 1: these Ukrainian figures, we're still talking about a massive, massive 83 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:51,719 Speaker 1: loss of life, more lives lost than the entirety of 84 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: the Vietnam War in just this year. That's a tough 85 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:02,279 Speaker 1: thing to grasp, at least for me, it is. Don't 86 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 1: know where the resolution is. Maybe Daniel Davis I can 87 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: comment on that. We'll be hearing from him at eight thirty. 88 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,600 Speaker 1: And finally we'll have Dab my friend from Oto Eggs 89 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 1: and on locally owned, locally made product, Dab at the 90 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: helm twenty five years of Oter Eggs at getting rid 91 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 1: of nastiness. That'll take place at the end of the 92 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: eight o'clock hour. End of the eight o'clock hour, So 93 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: hope you stick around for all that, and again feel 94 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: free to call rescue me from myself. This morning, downtown violence. 95 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: You heard on the top of the our news. We've 96 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: got a couple of people shot. Great two people injured 97 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:36,359 Speaker 1: in a shooting a Fountain Square at the City Bird 98 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 1: please showed up in response to the shooting. Two people 99 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: injured taking a UC medical center with described as non 100 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,839 Speaker 1: life threatening injuries. They said the shooting happened through the 101 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: window of City Bird exchange of fire. According police, three 102 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 1: shellcasings found two suspects, one of whom arrested in over 103 00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: the r soon after the shooting. The one victim is 104 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 1: a mail between the ages of are you ready sixteen 105 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:06,600 Speaker 1: and seventeen years old? 106 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 3: Joe? 107 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 1: Do we have a curfew? Yeah? I have to have 108 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: Provoll spoke to that, so compare and contrast. I got 109 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 1: a big kick out of the statements after have pro 110 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 1: ball statements and he had a statement from Corey Bowman. 111 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: Corey Bowman an alternative to mayor, have to have Purvoll 112 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: if you're looking for a change of administration, perhaps a 113 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: different direction for the city of Cincinnati after have parvoal 114 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 1: The recent violence and Fountain Square and Government Square is 115 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: beyond the pale and intolerable fine. This violence is in 116 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: the literal heart of our downtown. We've been relentless with 117 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: a litany of both police and non police interventions, and 118 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 1: yet violence continues. What what about all the progress we made? 119 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 1: What about MAGA undermining our safety and tearing apart of 120 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 1: the community. What about MAGA undoing what we've achieved together? 121 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: This is what we've achieved together. More violence in downtown Cincinnati. 122 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: I guess the violence continues. Words from have to have 123 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: parvol He's acknowledging that we've got a violence problem downtown Cincinnati. 124 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: What an amazing turn of events. As mayor of our city, 125 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: my expectation is that every party is at the table 126 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: and every change is on the table. We must collectively 127 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: consider significant change to the transit hub and how we 128 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: police the area. Oh, we need a change to the 129 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:30,679 Speaker 1: transit hub. I don't know how that became. The Government 130 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: Square became a magnet for violence, but it is a 131 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:36,959 Speaker 1: magnet for violence. Is it the transit hub that's at fault? 132 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 1: He went on the change to the transit hub and 133 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: how we police the area. That includes working with SORDA 134 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 1: to push for changes to Government Square. See here Government Square. 135 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 1: This is a bus drop off, transit area for whatever reason, 136 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: and a magnet for youths and violent crime. Seems to 137 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 1: me this is a police issue beyond that societally a 138 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 1: recognized problem we have in society that young people are 139 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 1: out there committing crimes. Of course, folks with responsible parents 140 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 1: wouldn't allow their children to be out after hours hanging 141 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,319 Speaker 1: out a government square. Maybe that's a broader problem, or 142 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 1: maybe the solution of the problem is dealing with people 143 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 1: at home. But we need changes to Government Square. They 144 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 1: also said, and creating and enforcing an earlier curfew specific 145 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 1: to the Fountain Square district. A, so we're gonna focus 146 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 1: on just the Fountain Square district. What do you think 147 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 1: like if you had enforced heavily enforced curfew in just 148 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 1: Government Square, which apparently is the root of all evil. 149 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 1: Government Square is the problem. It's not the youth and 150 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 1: the violence in downtown Cincinnati committed by people youth and 151 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: adults included. It's Government Square. So let's enforce a curfew 152 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 1: stick Government Square. Curfews apply only to the underage people. 153 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 1: Adults aren't subject to the curfew last time I checked. 154 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 1: So my directive remains clear. Police officers are responsible and 155 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: empowered to proactively intervene in de escalating unruly behavior and 156 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: enforcing laws as they're written. Fine, that's a mayor have 157 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 1: to have pro ball statement, which I thought was kind 158 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,719 Speaker 1: of comical considering Corey Bowman's statement. I won't read the 159 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: whole thing. I'll just go on because after parwall ends 160 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: with police officers being responsible and empowered to proactively intervene 161 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: in de escalating unruly behavior, enforcing laws as they're written, 162 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,439 Speaker 1: Which is a change in his perspective in terms of 163 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,959 Speaker 1: law enforcement. This is a recent change from mayor, have 164 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: to have pro ball, who is a big defund rethink 165 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 1: police kind of guy, Corey Bowman. Fast forward three paragraphs. 166 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: Our city needs to I'm sorry, our city needs proactive 167 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: policing patrols focused on de escalation. Sounds like comparable ideas there, 168 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 1: as well as the communications center of the dispatches accordingly 169 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 1: and effectively, immediate efforts to hire officers to meet designated 170 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:19,079 Speaker 1: strength numbers. Pressure on courts and judges to hold criminals accountable. 171 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: There's an element that may be elusive for even a mayor. 172 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 1: How do you pressure a woke, left wing judge to 173 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 1: enforce the law to the fullest extent. You can't do that. 174 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:36,679 Speaker 1: They're independent the U Dictionary, separate, independent from the executive branch. 175 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:38,680 Speaker 1: They can do whatever the hell they want. This is 176 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 1: why we need to make informed choices when it comes 177 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: to electing judges. And you have an opportunity to do 178 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 1: that in November or even right now, because early voting 179 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: is open choose your judges wisely anyway, New Amster, Gary 180 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:58,959 Speaker 1: and Jay on the phone. I am thankful for your 181 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 1: calls this morning, probably more than any other morning that 182 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 1: I can recall. It's five seventeen right now. We'll get 183 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:05,440 Speaker 1: to those just a moment. I'll be right back. 184 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:07,840 Speaker 4: I have a little bit of issue that's not. 185 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 1: Good even thank God. Hundred and eighty two three taught 186 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 1: New Hampshire. Gary, you're first. Thanks for calling this morning. Gary. 187 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: It's good to hear from you. 188 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 5: That's good goodness to listen to you. 189 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:22,840 Speaker 3: Brian. 190 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 5: I've been retired for ten years and I can tell 191 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:29,079 Speaker 5: you just a couple of observations that I make on 192 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 5: my partners. I have nothing to prove this, but I 193 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 5: think I'm pretty accurate. I think if we look, we 194 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 5: are on the warfare has changed so dramatically. We're almost 195 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 5: like that difference between the Civil War and the World 196 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 5: War One, to where trench warfare was in corporate with 197 00:12:51,360 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 5: modern industrial age technology made more lethal, rapid firing, and 198 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 5: larger weapons more accurate. And now we're on a different 199 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 5: technological transformation with drone warfare, cyber warfare. You know, I 200 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 5: picture just picture this like we built the B twenty 201 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 5: fours in the B seventeen and the twenty nines on 202 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 5: a rapid industrial scale using a modern assembly, right, and 203 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 5: we've pumped out twelve thousand B twenty fours and almost 204 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:39,439 Speaker 5: seven thousand B twenty nine five thousand. Anyhow, I can 205 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 5: imagine making drones at such a clip and a rapid succession, 206 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 5: and having drones instead of pilots and using swarm warfare, 207 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 5: you know, swarm technology to go after the aircraft, warriers 208 00:13:55,880 --> 00:14:00,040 Speaker 5: or even cities and stuff like that. You in corporate that, 209 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 5: or even on the battlefield, you'll also get cyber warfare 210 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 5: at the same time, where they go after the infrastructure, food, fuel, 211 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 5: anything that's banking, transactions, things like that. And you're entering 212 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 5: completely different realm. And we're actually watching this real time, 213 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 5: not just with Russia and Ukraine, but with everybody. I mean, 214 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 5: I think this is one of the reasons we're beefing 215 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 5: up our military reserve, our weapons, and they're kind of 216 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 5: doing it on a low scale like they did back 217 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 5: in the nineteen thirties. Our government knows that something is coming, 218 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 5: we just don't know what, and we're building up our 219 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 5: stockpile of weapons. And I believe this is why that 220 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 5: plant in Tennessee blew up, because they're working these guys 221 00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 5: over time and a half trying to pump through because 222 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 5: we need the explosive portinets and stuff like that. I 223 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 5: can't prove. 224 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 1: That, Yeah, that makes sense. I was just gonna say, 225 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: there's no way I'm even speculated on the reasons for 226 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 1: that explosion. But all the observations make are very are 227 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: quite clear. I mean, anybody who doesn't even have any 228 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 1: connection with the military is paying even remote attention to 229 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 1: the issues, realizes the reality of modern warfare. It's drones 230 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 1: and cyber We got the Chinese hacking into literally everything 231 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 1: that we have. In terms of infrastructure. Our electric grid 232 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: can be shut down on a whim and the electric 233 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: lid grid fails. I'm sorry, You're not gonna have access 234 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: to your bank account, your four to one K account, 235 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: your cryptocurrency account, nothing. Your water will not flow, your 236 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 1: gas will not flow, you will be without literally anything. 237 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: I mean, this is the world we live in right now. 238 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 1: It's frightening. And yes, I hope that our American military 239 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 1: and our officials and our elected officials and everybody involved 240 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 1: in protecting us is painfully aware of this reality and 241 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 1: is really literally doing everything humanly possible behind the scenes 242 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 1: to protect us from what seems so damn obvious. Mean, 243 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 1: our biggest threat is the Chinese communist parties hacking into 244 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 1: our infrastructure, but they're not the only ones. We talked 245 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: to Tech Friday's Dave Hadter. Every Friday we find out 246 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 1: how many actors are out there, evil and nefarious folks. 247 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 1: Maybe they're just looking to make a buck, Maybe they're 248 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 1: looking to undermine the United States stability and its ability 249 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 1: to defend itself. But they're all out there in mass 250 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 1: quantities coming after US twenty four to seven. It's frightening. 251 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: I hate to even think about how frightening it is. 252 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 1: And yeah, it's easy to make a drone. North Korea's 253 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 1: churning them out, Russia's churning them out, Iran is churning 254 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: them out. Everybody's capable of making a drone. They're cheap, 255 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 1: they're inexpensive, they're expendable. How much does it cost for 256 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 1: an F thirty five? How much does it cost for 257 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: a drone? How many drones can you buy for the 258 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 1: cost of an F thirty five? Rhetorical question, Jay hang On, 259 00:16:57,320 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: I'll take your call as soon as we come back. 260 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 1: I had to, well, Babylon, it's kind of the mood 261 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,159 Speaker 1: I'm in this morning.

We're up to sixty 278 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:58,679 Speaker 7: five billion dollars in savings this government shutdown. This is 279 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 7: really the ultimate dough solution, isn't it that instead of 280 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:07,119 Speaker 7: trying to pick away at the federal government and you know, 281 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 7: making some wins, but nowhere near where we need to be, 282 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 7: just shut it down and leave it shut down. And 283 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:17,120 Speaker 7: I would love to see Trump push the accelerator pedal down, 284 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 7: starting with let's undo all the federal bureaucracies the woods 285 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 7: Row Wilson put in place, and Jimmy Carter, you know, 286 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 7: I would start with Department of Education gone, Department of 287 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:31,119 Speaker 7: Energy gone, and just keep going down through every department 288 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 7: every day, get rid of another one, and everybody relaxed. 289 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 7: Your life goes on. We don't need I don't think 290 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 7: anybody's calling nine to one one because the government is 291 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 7: shut down. We're only talking about twenty percent of the 292 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 7: government spending. Believe me, they can do without it. And 293 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:50,400 Speaker 7: speaking of state government, you know, back to the argument 294 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 7: of with what happens if we stop paying property tax? 295 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:56,719 Speaker 7: And and my pet peeve is when people say, well, 296 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,199 Speaker 7: what are we going to replace it with? Here's a night. 297 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,680 Speaker 1: I don't don't allot to be a pet peeve. It's 298 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 1: a legitimate question, man. I'm not saying I want property tags. 299 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 1: The aftermath is going to be a complicated reality, and 300 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 1: you can't deny that. So they're going to have to 301 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 1: do so hard. 302 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 7: I can, well I can, And here's how. If you 303 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:19,880 Speaker 7: get on Ohio checkbook dot gov, it'll show you where 304 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 7: the Ohio is spending money. It has one hundred and 305 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 7: eleven billion dollar budget. Forty five billion of that is Medicaid, 306 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,880 Speaker 7: and I just try to find the updated listening by states, 307 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:34,679 Speaker 7: because last time we found this, I think it was 308 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 7: Americans for Prosperity that Ohio was last place at forty 309 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 7: five percent. So let's just assume that we're right around there. 310 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 7: Our medicaid spend is forty five billions. Our public schools 311 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 7: primary secondary is fifteen billions. If we take the medicaid 312 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 7: fraud out of the Ohio state budget, that base for everything. 313 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 7: If we want to continue to overfund these overfunded schools 314 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 7: and pay the football tax and get to take them 315 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 7: the same exorbitant level of spending, take the medicaid fraud. 316 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,439 Speaker 7: This is very simple. Take the fraud out of the 317 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 7: state medicaid system and that'll fund primary secondary schools. You 318 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:18,120 Speaker 7: don't have to change the thing. 319 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:18,400 Speaker 6: Now. 320 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 7: I would vote to take the fraud out and scutch 321 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 7: and continue to cut the taxes. But isn't that a 322 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 7: simple solution, Brian? 323 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 1: It is assuming that amount of fraud is out there 324 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 1: in the quantities that you describe, and I have no 325 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,160 Speaker 1: way of knowing exactly how much fraud is out there. 326 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 1: It is difficult to find the number. I mean, you 327 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 1: point it out after here's the one that brought it 328 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 1: to everybody's attention. That's not that long ago. But I 329 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 1: don't know where the number is right now. I can't. 330 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:45,640 Speaker 1: I can't see what idea. 331 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:49,200 Speaker 7: I found something. I found that the national average is 332 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 7: twenty percent, So twenty of forty five billion. What says 333 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 7: that nine billion dollars out of the fifteen billion dollar 334 00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:00,240 Speaker 7: primary and secondary budget. Even if we're average, I don't 335 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 7: think we are. Okay, we would still have nine billions. 336 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,399 Speaker 7: That's a big hole that we could fill with primary 337 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 7: and second there. But I don't hear anybody talking about 338 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 7: this anymore. 339 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 1: No, You're right, That's why we have you Jay, to 340 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 1: keep reminding people how much fraud, waste, and abuse there 341 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,359 Speaker 1: is out there. Every blank and government program is just 342 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 1: replete with fraud, waste, and abuse. It happens all the time. Geez, 343 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,919 Speaker 1: look at the COVID numbers and the PPP loans. I mean, 344 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 1: there's just billions of dollars of people just ripping off 345 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 1: the federal government. And of course state governments go hand 346 00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 1: in hand with the federal government because there's not enough oversight. 347 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 1: There isn't enough there aren't enough bodies I guess monitoring 348 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,199 Speaker 1: the store. There seems to be something artificial intelligence might 349 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 1: get its head around and stop from happening. I mean, 350 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: how difficult is it to eradicate fraud wasted abuse? Right? 351 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 7: You gotta be would one hundred percent agree? And so 352 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 7: anytime somebody says what would we replace it with, We'll 353 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 7: get rid of the fraud, waste and abuse. Start with Medicaid. 354 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 7: Don't vote Rhino, don't vote Democrat. And hey, we're hav 355 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 7: anybody for Central Committee, the shadow people behind the Republican Party. 356 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 7: Have they ever reached out to you, because I'd really 357 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:06,880 Speaker 7: love to know more about you know, how they make 358 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:08,880 Speaker 7: choices for all of us. 359 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 1: Who every time you mentioned Central Committee? Rick Herron, who's 360 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,919 Speaker 1: big on Central Committee being the the important element of 361 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 1: getting better candidates. He keeps saying Jay needs a run 362 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 1: for Central Committee. Be a strong voice be that actual committee. Rick, 363 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 1: you are the one that needs to be on Central 364 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 1: Committee because you hate it so much. That's his point. 365 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 7: Jay, who elected them to speak for all of us? 366 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 1: Well, nobody but everybody. You know, it's just kind of 367 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: the way we ended up here. Jay, go ahead, run 368 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,400 Speaker 1: for it and tear it down. If that's the end 369 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:44,719 Speaker 1: story for you, then fine, go ahead and do it. 370 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:48,199 Speaker 1: You can be the I don't know the mechanism for 371 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,360 Speaker 1: change here in the state of Ohio. Love hearing from you, Jay, 372 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 1: and keep reminding people there is massive fraud, waste, abuse, 373 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,960 Speaker 1: and government. Maybe we don't need more money, we just 374 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 1: need to get a check on the money that we 375 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 1: take in. And the number of people were hooking themselves 376 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 1: up to federal programs and state programs who are not 377 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 1: eligible or otherwise committing fraud and doing so. Thank you, 378 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 1: my friend, Tom, Welcome to the Morning Show, and Happy 379 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 1: Tuesday to you. 380 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:18,119 Speaker 8: Oh that's just good stuff. I know, I know. I 381 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,160 Speaker 8: got something for Jay to do. Apparently there's a couple 382 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 8: of local high schools that need new stadiums and he 383 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:25,719 Speaker 8: needs to spearhead fundraiser drives. 384 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 1: Yeah that'll work. Yeah, he's on that right now. 385 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:34,360 Speaker 8: Football tax. That's one of the better ones that I've 386 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 8: heard that. I mean, it could be. And the reason 387 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 8: it's so funny is good. 388 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 9: It's true. 389 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: It's true. Yes, it is true. 390 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 8: It is true. We are spending it in orderate amounts 391 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,920 Speaker 8: of money on things that really, when you get down 392 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:50,880 Speaker 8: to it, the taxpayers should not be paying for. It's 393 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 8: that simple. So h But now you're asking people to 394 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 8: give up this big pot of money that's there that 395 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 8: every everybody that gets elected and get their rugby balls 396 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 8: into and oh, here's something for my cause, and oh 397 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 8: here's so here's some more from my cause. And you 398 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,639 Speaker 8: know that, that's what you're asking people to give up. 399 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 8: And it's man, the love of money. We know about that. 400 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,880 Speaker 8: And when you got all kinds of money, you can 401 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 8: do a lot of stuff. You can grease a lot 402 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 8: of wheels, you know. So that's that's the tough part, 403 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:26,199 Speaker 8: getting rid of all this money and knocking down the 404 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 8: amount of money that's that's available to all these politicians 405 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 8: and all these bureaucrats. And that's both sides of the aisle. 406 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:39,160 Speaker 8: And there's a very small percentage of elected officials that realize 407 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 8: it's a problem and are and are willing to do 408 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 8: something about it, but a single digit percentage of people 409 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 8: is not going to get anything done. And so that's why, 410 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 8: along with Jay and and many others, that's why we 411 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,680 Speaker 8: say don't vote right now and don't vote Democrat. 412 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 1: Have a great day, Brian, Thanks Tom and you two 413 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:02,879 Speaker 1: five six, fifty five kre CD talk station.

Well, 420 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 1: you know I I think that the elimination of property 421 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:28,159 Speaker 1: tax is going to be complicated for our elected officials 422 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,400 Speaker 1: and columbus to deal with. Jay's got a solution, get 423 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 1: rid of fraud, waste and abuse, and there's the money. Well, 424 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 1: maybe that's the answer to the question, the Charlie Fox trot. 425 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:40,880 Speaker 1: Reality of getting rid of property tax in the state 426 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 1: of Ohio, if that's in fact what the voters go for, 427 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: might bring about greater oversight. If they are desperately in 428 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 1: need of finding money. It's right there in front of them. 429 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 1: So maybe that's one of the things that they'll accomplish. 430 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: Oh my god, property tax is eliminated. How are we 431 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,400 Speaker 1: going to fund fill in the black? Thanks? Hmmm, well, 432 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 1: let's look at this program. Let's look at that program. 433 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 1: Oh my god, let us look at the billions of 434 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:08,679 Speaker 1: dollars that we are spending that we shouldn't be spending. 435 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 1: Let's put it in our pocket and then fund these things. 436 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 1: We no longer have property, that's the fund. Maybe that's 437 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 1: the moment of desperation that will bring us about to 438 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 1: some form of a greater oversight which seems to be 439 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 1: in desperate need across every corner of government in the 440 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 1: entire United States. Where in the hell is the oversight? 441 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:30,679 Speaker 1: How much money do you spend on non or on 442 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 1: these on these non governmental organization we talk about the 443 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,880 Speaker 1: city of Cincinnati.

The original DOGE work 445 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 1: going after all these USA programs, What did they do 446 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:45,159 Speaker 1: with the money? It says they're going to cure I 447 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 1: don't know, herpes among transgender prostitutes in China or something 448 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:55,879 Speaker 1: did it?

My friend, I got one thing to say, 465 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:47,119 Speaker 6: and this sums it up. They talk about the taxes, 466 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:51,119 Speaker 6: and it's real simple. You want to talk about the waste, 467 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:54,159 Speaker 6: Go down to any job and family service office and 468 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 6: just walk in there and sit down for a while, 469 00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 6: and you'll see exactly what the problems are.

Why are we still 476 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:25,879 Speaker 6: feeding them? 477 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 1: Well, it's a good question, I guess I've had many 478 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 1: of my friends, as Steve, you're out there listening wondering, 479 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,919 Speaker 1: for example, why Donald Trump is insisting on rescuing and 480 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 1: saving the democratic cities from themselves in the rampant crime. 481 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 1: Let them go, Let them die on their own policies 482 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 1: and platforms. Don't send the National Guard in. Yah, they're suffering. 483 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 1: Let them continue to suffer. I understand that you can 484 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 1: view that as a broader, perhaps solution to the challenges 485 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 1: we face collectively. 486 00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 6: In the state of Ohio. We have eighty eight counties. 487 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 6: Ten percent are run by Democrats, but that ten takes 488 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 6: care of fifty percent of the voting block. Yeah, why 489 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:12,200 Speaker 6: do we keep supporting they're surrounded by conservatives? Quit spending 490 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 6: the money, and quit feeding the pig. That's it. 491 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 1: Well, Bobby's final solution cut off the money, so viable 492 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 1: solution there, Bobby, I guess, Ted, welcome to the morning show, 493 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 1: Happy Tuesday.

I think your cell phone died. Ted, 500 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 1: I'm not hearing anything from you, but it's a great point. 501 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 1: Just mentioning the High Lottery obviously caused me to break 502 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 1: into laughter.

Drinks do not count as food, and 590 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:56,880 Speaker 1: that's in quotes from the instructions they say. Obviously challenging 591 00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 1: for the digestive system, but you must keep it down. 592 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 1: There is a zero tolerance policy for expelling the eating food. 593 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:05,880 Speaker 1: The eating food as much as you might want to 594 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 1: expel whatever the hell at Chilupa Supreme is so no vomiting. 595 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 1: If you do, you're immediately disqualified and you're not allowed 596 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: to take stomach medicines like pepto, pepsid ac et cetera. 597 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 13: I don't make the. 598 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 7: Rules, ma'am. 599 00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:24,959 Speaker 13: I just think them up and write them down. 600 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 1: You are able to use the bathroom as much as 601 00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:33,240 Speaker 1: you like, but you can only use Taco Bell restrooms. 602 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:36,600 Speaker 1: Taco Bell fifty K now when it's eighth year just 603 00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 1: happened over the weekend.

Taco 605 00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 1: Bell is not affiliated in any way, shape or form 606 00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:48,279 Speaker 1: of the event and will not comment on it. But 607 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:52,000 Speaker 1: the organizers say they believe that's probably because of their 608 00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,439 Speaker 1: legal department. You know, if they endorse it, then maybe 609 00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:56,719 Speaker 1: they're going to be liable. And I certainly understand that 610 00:35:56,760 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: because fifty five CASEE listener lunches are not sanctioned, but 611 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:12,960 Speaker 1: of course they enjoy the publicity. Taco Bell. Wow, I 612 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 1: remember the last time I was at a Taco Bell. 613 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:19,719 Speaker 1: Not a good experience.

So Trump took care of 671 00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:01,520 Speaker 1: the pressure point that was the military funding over the weekend. 672 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:04,320 Speaker 1: Apparently he's shifting money to make sure our military members 673 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 1: will not miss a paycheck tomorrow. A little bit of 674 00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:10,400 Speaker 1: relief there. We of course have him moving forward with 675 00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:13,600 Speaker 1: layoffs to the Office of Management and Budget, which he 676 00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:19,319 Speaker 1: promised he would do. And state of flux concerning where 677 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:21,959 Speaker 1: we're going right now. No sign that rank and file 678 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:24,479 Speaker 1: Senate Democrats are going to capitulate. You only need five 679 00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:26,680 Speaker 1: of them to turn the government back on. But no 680 00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:28,920 Speaker 1: sign that the rate to flip. So what are we 681 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:32,880 Speaker 1: looking for? The ultimate pressure point? The November first launch 682 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 1: of open enrollment for the Affordable Care Act. Democrats are 683 00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:41,879 Speaker 1: waiting for the pain now and correct me if I'm wrong. 684 00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:44,440 Speaker 1: My understanding is one point five million people are going 685 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:47,759 Speaker 1: to be affected by the cutoff of subsidies for Obamacare. 686 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:50,399 Speaker 1: We live in a nation of three hundred and forty 687 00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:52,880 Speaker 1: or so million people, so that's a rather small segment 688 00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:55,080 Speaker 1: of the population. I know they probably will vote, but 689 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:58,839 Speaker 1: is it really I mean, are we holding hostage a 690 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:02,759 Speaker 1: vast majority of American people in connection with this subsidy? No, 691 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:07,439 Speaker 1: of course we're not so waiting for the November first 692 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:09,799 Speaker 1: to open roll, but that means constituents, Oh my god, 693 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,160 Speaker 1: I'm not getting a tax credit anymore this year. So 694 00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:15,399 Speaker 1: the small segment of people making north of four hundred 695 00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,200 Speaker 1: percent of poverty level are no longer going to get 696 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:19,920 Speaker 1: their premium subsidized. Is that going to really amount to 697 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:24,919 Speaker 1: some sort of massive revolt against Republicans. I don't see 698 00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 1: it personally, but this is where we are. So wait 699 00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:30,279 Speaker 1: for the pain to hit, Wait for the phones to 700 00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:35,080 Speaker 1: start ringing. Senator Rubin Golego, Democrat at Arizona. The closer 701 00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:37,319 Speaker 1: to November first, a lot of selected officials are going 702 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:41,120 Speaker 1: to start hearing from their what else are they waiting for? Well, 703 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:44,279 Speaker 1: they're waiting shut down to inflict pain upon you. You're flying 704 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:50,759 Speaker 1: an airplane. Yeah. CENA Majority leader John Thune pointed out 705 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:54,000 Speaker 1: wait waiting for the shutdowns impact on air travels, saying 706 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 1: it's one way the senators, in his words, might start 707 00:40:57,600 --> 00:40:59,920 Speaker 1: to feel that a little bit personal. 708 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:02,839 Speaker 14: HM. 709 00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 1: Senator Dick Durbin separately noted last week how air traffic 710 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:15,479 Speaker 1: controllers were a driving factor in the last shutdown. Ooh, 711 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:17,000 Speaker 1: the American people are going to be able to fly, 712 00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:19,799 Speaker 1: So let's make them feel that pain and force the 713 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:23,320 Speaker 1: Republicans to capitulate and offer these north of four hundred 714 00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:26,000 Speaker 1: percent of the poverty level subsidies to continue, as well 715 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 1: as make eligible a whole lot of illegal immigrants. Yes, 716 00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:33,080 Speaker 1: there's that in the background as well. And the other 717 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:35,600 Speaker 1: component of this is kind of comical. I think it's 718 00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:42,080 Speaker 1: comical personally. Now, the House approved extension, the continuing Resolution 719 00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 1: was passed in the House that keeps government funding levels 720 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:50,120 Speaker 1: of the Biden era level right that expires November twenty first, 721 00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:57,200 Speaker 1: right before Thanksgiving. But the more we TikTok TikTok in 722 00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:01,799 Speaker 1: a shutdown. The closer November twenty twenty first comes and 723 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:04,720 Speaker 1: the House being in recess means apparently they're not working 724 00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:06,799 Speaker 1: on the appropriations bill, which is the point of the 725 00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:10,440 Speaker 1: continuing resolution. We've got to get the twelve appropriations bill done. 726 00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:13,440 Speaker 1: We need a continuing resolution to keep funding levels at 727 00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:15,640 Speaker 1: the same rate as last year so we can get 728 00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 1: the work done that we have been well charged with 729 00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:22,840 Speaker 1: doing since the beginning of the fiscal year. Go ahead 730 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:24,400 Speaker 1: and make fun of every one of them for not 731 00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:27,080 Speaker 1: getting that work done in advance of any deadline. They 732 00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 1: need a deadline to force them into exactly what we're 733 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:32,200 Speaker 1: doing right now. It's a big game they play every year, 734 00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:35,400 Speaker 1: usually ending up with an omnibus spending bill that increases 735 00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:38,320 Speaker 1: the amount of federal spending insanely and also includes a 736 00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:41,080 Speaker 1: whole bunch of things that Rhinos as well as Democrats 737 00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:43,960 Speaker 1: throw in there to well pad the books in their 738 00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:50,080 Speaker 1: own state. So now they're talking about maybe extending that 739 00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:56,080 Speaker 1: deadline in a new bill into well just before Christmas, 740 00:42:57,480 --> 00:43:00,560 Speaker 1: just before Christmas, because of course every lot he's got 741 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:05,760 Speaker 1: to go home for Christmas. This is just ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous. 742 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:07,920 Speaker 1: Let's go to the phone and see what Dennis has got. Dennis, 743 00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:10,560 Speaker 1: thanks for calling this morning. I truly appreciate hearing from you. 744 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:14,240 Speaker 3: I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling the way you are. 745 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 3: A couple of things going around that you know, you 746 00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:21,799 Speaker 3: want to have your your physician look at your sinuses, 747 00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:26,359 Speaker 3: head and ears, and they if your equilibrium is off 748 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:30,560 Speaker 3: and you're feeling kind of punk, it's probably going to 749 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:33,280 Speaker 3: have something to do with that. Maybe it's a bug 750 00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:35,640 Speaker 3: going around and we've got to put up with it 751 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:40,719 Speaker 3: in the usual things that public health and medical policy 752 00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:44,600 Speaker 3: ignore what putting us through this craft. 753 00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:47,960 Speaker 1: That's in my own personal health. I do not feel congested. 754 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,120 Speaker 1: I don't feel I mean, I don't feel ill at all, 755 00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:54,319 Speaker 1: except I'm just walking around. I'm just kind of like 756 00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:56,960 Speaker 1: off balance and I just feel out of sorts. It's 757 00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:58,880 Speaker 1: just the weird. It's the strangest thing, man, And I 758 00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:02,279 Speaker 1: hate to even ament on air that I'm feeling this way. 759 00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:04,480 Speaker 1: I'm just trying to give people an explanation for why 760 00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:06,840 Speaker 1: and maybe sell like an idiot this morning. So I 761 00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 1: appreciate it. 762 00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:09,680 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I have him to do a blood work 763 00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:12,439 Speaker 3: up on you and make sure your platele account's good. 764 00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:17,040 Speaker 1: And I just had that done. My cancer doctor just 765 00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:19,600 Speaker 1: did that about a week ago and everything was great. 766 00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:22,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I got an outstanding report for my cancer doctors. 767 00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 1: So unless things have changed in the last seven days 768 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:29,560 Speaker 1: or so, uh, it's not that. So I'm at a loss, sir, 769 00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:30,279 Speaker 1: I really am. 770 00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:33,799 Speaker 3: Well, I'll say, if you know, not to make too 771 00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:36,600 Speaker 3: fine a point on it, but that's why God made bourbon, 772 00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:37,920 Speaker 3: so I have got it too. 773 00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:41,439 Speaker 1: It's like the way I feel right now, I feel 774 00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 1: like I've been drinking bourbon. That's it's sort of a 775 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,640 Speaker 1: drunken feeling. Anyway, go ahead, Dennis. I know you didn't 776 00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:48,520 Speaker 1: call to talk about that. 777 00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:52,680 Speaker 3: Well, actually I did, but that's the pretest. Hey, let 778 00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:55,200 Speaker 3: me go back to what we're having here in Hamilton 779 00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:58,760 Speaker 3: County as we've had a complete takeover of the government 780 00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:02,960 Speaker 3: by the by the idiots and the maniacs. And one 781 00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:06,080 Speaker 3: of the things that happened in the past five years 782 00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:10,160 Speaker 3: is the complete shifts in the way that elections are conducted. 783 00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:14,440 Speaker 3: And some of it's above the rows and some of 784 00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:17,960 Speaker 3: it's beneath the rose, meaning that some of it was 785 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:21,320 Speaker 3: done openly, but almost all of it was an agenda 786 00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:25,320 Speaker 3: that was designed to subvert the ability of the voters 787 00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:28,880 Speaker 3: at large to have a significant influence over there of 788 00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 3: our environment. And one that I ran across which was 789 00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:35,520 Speaker 3: really interesting, and it was the way that the last 790 00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:39,480 Speaker 3: election in twenty twenty four was rigged locally, and it 791 00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:42,280 Speaker 3: had to do with a smudge, just a tiny, tiny 792 00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:47,719 Speaker 3: little smudge over CONNYE. Pillach's box on the ballot. This 793 00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:51,880 Speaker 3: is just one example, but it happened with such frequency 794 00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:54,920 Speaker 3: while I, myself and my wife were standing there in 795 00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:58,759 Speaker 3: the Board of Elections getting our ballots counted, and then 796 00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:04,120 Speaker 3: it became pretty evident the computer program was printing an 797 00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:10,080 Speaker 3: almost invisible smudge over Connie Pillage's box in the ballot, 798 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:12,520 Speaker 3: and what that would do is that if you voted 799 00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:16,680 Speaker 3: for her Republican opposition, it would kick the ballot. And 800 00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:22,200 Speaker 3: then the posts of the Board of Elections employees were 801 00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:24,279 Speaker 3: telling people to just oh, let it go. The rest 802 00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:27,239 Speaker 3: of your ballot'll count. And what they did was is 803 00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:30,759 Speaker 3: it rigged a significant shift in the count for the 804 00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:35,440 Speaker 3: Prosecutor's office to the Democrat side. And the consequences of 805 00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:39,360 Speaker 3: that are being evident right now. With the total restriction 806 00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:43,320 Speaker 3: on the ability of police officers to get a warrant 807 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:46,640 Speaker 3: issued for somebody, everything has to go through the prosecutor's office. 808 00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:48,560 Speaker 1: Well, Dennis, I got to be honest with you, I 809 00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:52,360 Speaker 1: have never heard anybody, and I've got a lot of 810 00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:54,520 Speaker 1: folks on the listening audience that are really keen on 811 00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:57,120 Speaker 1: election fraud and all this. No one has ever mentioned 812 00:46:57,160 --> 00:46:59,040 Speaker 1: what you're talking about this morning. I don't know where 813 00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:02,399 Speaker 1: you got the information of your personal experience, but as 814 00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:05,160 Speaker 1: far as it's being a widespread phenomenon, this is the 815 00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:06,920 Speaker 1: first time I've ever heard of it. So I have 816 00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:08,759 Speaker 1: to let you know that right of here, because I 817 00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:10,960 Speaker 1: have never heard anything to that effect. 818 00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:15,640 Speaker 3: It's firsthand. I witnessed it directly. And the interest, how do. 819 00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:18,280 Speaker 1: You draw the conclusion it was pervasive though you said 820 00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:20,960 Speaker 1: you saw it firsthand, but then you extrapolate that into 821 00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:23,879 Speaker 1: it being a pervasive problem.

This violence 1007 00:56:06,880 --> 00:56:09,000 Speaker 1: is in the literal heart of our downtown. We've been 1008 00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:12,279 Speaker 1: relentless with a litany of both police and non police interventions, 1009 00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:19,319 Speaker 1: and yet the violence continues. Huh, I thought there was 1010 00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:22,640 Speaker 1: nothing to see here. Isn't that the word that Aftab 1011 00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:25,759 Speaker 1: par of Ball put out earlier?

World's 1031 00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:27,800 Speaker 1: in a bit of a subultory mood, seeing that we 1032 00:57:27,880 --> 00:57:30,960 Speaker 1: have some sort of at least movement toward peace and 1033 00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:35,080 Speaker 1: parlia Middle East anyway, everybody painfully aware of what's going 1034 00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:38,480 Speaker 1: on there and the idea we've got the hostages released 1035 00:57:38,720 --> 00:57:42,280 Speaker 1: last twenty living still waiting on the remains of the 1036 00:57:42,360 --> 00:57:44,959 Speaker 1: dead hostages, and of course Israel getting ready to release 1037 00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:49,120 Speaker 1: the Palestinian hostages. And Walter Mead had an interesting observation 1038 00:57:49,160 --> 00:57:52,760 Speaker 1: about where we are on this yes, turning to and 1039 00:57:52,800 --> 00:57:55,400 Speaker 1: relying on and standing on the shoulder of giants this morning, 1040 00:57:55,400 --> 00:58:00,680 Speaker 1: given my mental health state, and I thought good, given 1041 00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:03,000 Speaker 1: by the standard of Donald Trump's larger than life. Second 1042 00:58:03,120 --> 00:58:06,880 Speaker 1: term October thirteenth looms large. He writes, released to the 1043 00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:10,640 Speaker 1: last living hostages from their inhumane and indefensible captivity. Trump's 1044 00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:15,400 Speaker 1: speech at the canness It and his presence shortly afterward 1045 00:58:15,440 --> 00:58:20,440 Speaker 1: in Charmel, Shake, Egypt, at a global summit that only 1046 00:58:20,520 --> 00:58:25,360 Speaker 1: he could convene were extraordinary. As much too soon to 1047 00:58:25,400 --> 00:58:27,720 Speaker 1: tell what that all means. Events are still moving quickly 1048 00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:30,160 Speaker 1: and it will be months or even years before the 1049 00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:33,200 Speaker 1: result could be fully assessed. But as joyful videos of 1050 00:58:33,240 --> 00:58:36,680 Speaker 1: hostages reuniting with their families flooded the Internet, we know 1051 00:58:36,880 --> 00:58:41,160 Speaker 1: five things about what just happened. The first, most obvious, 1052 00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:44,880 Speaker 1: the hostages are home. The dark cloud hanging over Israel 1053 00:58:44,920 --> 00:58:48,160 Speaker 1: and the Jewish people worldwide since the atrocity of October seventh, 1054 00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:51,400 Speaker 1: twenty three is lifted. There is mourning for the dead, 1055 00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:55,840 Speaker 1: horror at the survivor's suffering, and gratitude for the heroism 1056 00:58:55,920 --> 00:58:58,240 Speaker 1: of those who gave their lives in Israel's defense. After 1057 00:58:58,240 --> 00:59:01,400 Speaker 1: the attacks, the nightmare is over and the healing can begin. 1058 00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:06,560 Speaker 1: The second is that only Trump could have made this happen. 1059 00:59:06,600 --> 00:59:09,800 Speaker 1: No other living politician could have reassured Israel threatened to 1060 00:59:09,880 --> 00:59:13,640 Speaker 1: most and passed together a broad Arab coalition the way 1061 00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:17,120 Speaker 1: he's done. Mister Trump has his shortcomings, and even he 1062 00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:19,440 Speaker 1: wonders if he will get into heaven. But he's a 1063 00:59:19,560 --> 00:59:24,120 Speaker 1: leader who bestrides the world seen like no other. Third 1064 00:59:24,960 --> 00:59:28,680 Speaker 1: Benjamin Nettyahoo has cemented his place in history of the 1065 00:59:28,760 --> 00:59:31,360 Speaker 1: Jewish people. He has his flaws and has made his 1066 00:59:31,440 --> 00:59:34,040 Speaker 1: share of costly mistakes, but the same can be said 1067 00:59:34,040 --> 00:59:36,800 Speaker 1: of ancient leaders like Samson and David, as well as 1068 00:59:36,800 --> 00:59:39,480 Speaker 1: modern heroes like David Ben Jurian Go to My Air 1069 00:59:39,520 --> 00:59:44,120 Speaker 1: and Moishe Diane. Mister Netanyahu imposed his leadership on a 1070 00:59:44,160 --> 00:59:47,920 Speaker 1: country that yearned to reject him, brought order to an 1071 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:52,080 Speaker 1: unruly coalition, and combined flexibility of means with steadfastness of 1072 00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:56,080 Speaker 1: purpose to bring Israel's greatest and most harrowing war to 1073 00:59:56,160 --> 01:00:02,280 Speaker 1: a triumphant conclusion. Fourth stripe, Mister, Despite mister Trump's optimism, 1074 01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:05,240 Speaker 1: the Middle East hasn't yet entered an era of peace. 1075 01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:10,040 Speaker 1: That the summit in Shuramau Shak Egypt communicats will be signed, 1076 01:00:10,040 --> 01:00:13,720 Speaker 1: But the core cause of the conflict hasn't been and 1077 01:00:13,840 --> 01:00:18,320 Speaker 1: perhaps can't be resolved. The existence of a Jewish state 1078 01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:21,920 Speaker 1: in the predominantly Muslim Middle East. Present East presents an 1079 01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:25,920 Speaker 1: unendurable civilizational and religious affront to so many of the 1080 01:00:25,960 --> 01:00:29,240 Speaker 1: region's population that Israel has had to become an armed 1081 01:00:29,880 --> 01:00:34,520 Speaker 1: camp to survive. And the Israel Palestinian conflict is far 1082 01:00:34,600 --> 01:00:37,400 Speaker 1: from the only one in Middle East. Ethnic and religious 1083 01:00:37,440 --> 01:00:41,960 Speaker 1: tensions have ripped Syria and Lobanon apart. Chie hottest ideology 1084 01:00:42,040 --> 01:00:44,960 Speaker 1: is resurgent in much of the region. Even so called 1085 01:00:45,160 --> 01:00:52,320 Speaker 1: modern Islamism, as in recept Erdigon's Turkey, refuses to repudiate 1086 01:00:52,320 --> 01:00:57,960 Speaker 1: groups like Kamas, you know, and looking at his five points, 1087 01:00:58,160 --> 01:01:03,080 Speaker 1: that may be the core of everything right there religious 1088 01:01:03,080 --> 01:01:10,439 Speaker 1: disputes which I will call childish fifth. While the Gods 1089 01:01:10,520 --> 01:01:13,520 Speaker 1: Accords are President Trump's most spectacular triumph to date his 1090 01:01:13,560 --> 01:01:17,640 Speaker 1: biggest international challenge. Why I had Hamas like its backers 1091 01:01:17,680 --> 01:01:22,720 Speaker 1: in Iran, was and is a nihilistic force. It was 1092 01:01:22,760 --> 01:01:26,160 Speaker 1: the enemy of every Arab government in the Middle East. 1093 01:01:26,280 --> 01:01:29,120 Speaker 1: It had no positive program for the people it ruled, 1094 01:01:29,120 --> 01:01:33,200 Speaker 1: and its political goals were utterly impractical. Its tactics, whereas 1095 01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:36,840 Speaker 1: revolting as its methods, were brutal that a movement so 1096 01:01:37,160 --> 01:01:40,840 Speaker 1: deranged and misguided could command such a wide support among 1097 01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:45,640 Speaker 1: the world's restless youth reflects in part, the careless sentimentalism 1098 01:01:45,720 --> 01:01:49,720 Speaker 1: of people whose genuine concern for the Palestinians blinded them 1099 01:01:49,880 --> 01:01:56,240 Speaker 1: to the cynical and bloodthirsty duplicity of Hamas Amen. And 1100 01:01:56,320 --> 01:02:00,400 Speaker 1: of course, the virus of anti Semitism, to which half 1101 01:02:00,680 --> 01:02:04,720 Speaker 1: educated mind seem particularly vulnerable, had its part to play. 1102 01:02:05,520 --> 01:02:09,000 Speaker 1: But the capacity to incite greta thunbird to join a 1103 01:02:09,080 --> 01:02:15,400 Speaker 1: flotilla isn't real international power. Mister Trump's triumph of Ramas 1104 01:02:15,800 --> 01:02:19,240 Speaker 1: comes from his ability to organize a coalition of realists 1105 01:02:19,280 --> 01:02:24,800 Speaker 1: against the pretensions of fanaticists. The Gulf Arabs want stability 1106 01:02:24,920 --> 01:02:27,240 Speaker 1: in the region so they can develop their economies and 1107 01:02:27,280 --> 01:02:30,840 Speaker 1: attract international investment without the perpetual upheaval of chaos on 1108 01:02:30,880 --> 01:02:34,560 Speaker 1: which Amas thrives. That's the lynchpin to Trump's success in 1109 01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:37,760 Speaker 1: the region. Wake up, idiots, you guys can trade together. 1110 01:02:37,840 --> 01:02:40,080 Speaker 1: You can live and thrive and survive together. It'll be 1111 01:02:40,120 --> 01:02:42,000 Speaker 1: good for all of your economies if you just put 1112 01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:45,919 Speaker 1: down your stupid ideological beliefs and get along and quit 1113 01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:51,680 Speaker 1: killing each other. What a great message. Huh Okay, we 1114 01:02:51,760 --> 01:02:54,280 Speaker 1: here in Saudi Arabia can live a peaceful existence. Is 1115 01:02:54,360 --> 01:02:57,760 Speaker 1: a country, Saudi Arabia, while oh, look over there, Cutter 1116 01:02:58,160 --> 01:03:00,600 Speaker 1: is living its own peaceful existence with it and its borders. 1117 01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:03,120 Speaker 1: And look, yeah, we can play along with Israel, just fine. 1118 01:03:03,160 --> 01:03:05,000 Speaker 1: Do we like that they were there? Well maybe not 1119 01:03:05,160 --> 01:03:08,280 Speaker 1: because they did take over some previously, you know, Arab 1120 01:03:08,640 --> 01:03:11,560 Speaker 1: dominated space or whatever. But this problem's been going on 1121 01:03:11,640 --> 01:03:14,240 Speaker 1: for thousands of years. Okay, so let's play nicely with 1122 01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:16,960 Speaker 1: the Israelis. Apparently they got their act together. They have 1123 01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:20,360 Speaker 1: a booming economy. Look at them compared to where we are. 1124 01:03:20,960 --> 01:03:27,720 Speaker 1: Uh sorry, it's my mood today. Back over to the 1125 01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:29,960 Speaker 1: Trump's triph over Moss. They also want to most to 1126 01:03:29,960 --> 01:03:32,200 Speaker 1: suffer the kind of crushing defeat that would reduce its 1127 01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:34,680 Speaker 1: ideological appeal among their own citizens. This would be the 1128 01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:39,280 Speaker 1: Arab Gulf Arab states. Yes they do. Israel wants security 1129 01:03:39,280 --> 01:03:42,080 Speaker 1: for its people, stating the obvious. Europeans won an end 1130 01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:45,640 Speaker 1: to a war that agitated their immigrant populations and increased 1131 01:03:45,640 --> 01:03:47,920 Speaker 1: the risk of domestic terror. Look at what's going on 1132 01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:50,800 Speaker 1: in the streets of Europe. Yes, violent protests in the 1133 01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:57,480 Speaker 1: name of the Palestinian state or whatever. Mister Trump's genius 1134 01:03:57,520 --> 01:04:00,720 Speaker 1: was to find a frame work within which these different powers, 1135 01:04:00,720 --> 01:04:03,720 Speaker 1: with their different priorities could end could work together toward 1136 01:04:03,760 --> 01:04:07,600 Speaker 1: their common goal. It is a real accomplishment and deserves 1137 01:04:07,640 --> 01:04:12,560 Speaker 1: the world's gratitude and respect. But the next steps will 1138 01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:18,040 Speaker 1: be harder. The Russian and Chinese governments, even when misguided, 1139 01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:24,000 Speaker 1: have a rationally and consistency that Hamas a rationality rather inconsistency, 1140 01:04:24,040 --> 01:04:28,720 Speaker 1: that Hamas never did. Hamas dug tunnels. Russia and China 1141 01:04:29,520 --> 01:04:34,280 Speaker 1: build nuclear weapons, and I will interject and also hack 1142 01:04:34,360 --> 01:04:39,600 Speaker 1: into our critical infrastructure. The skill of flexibility, encouraged mister 1143 01:04:39,600 --> 01:04:42,280 Speaker 1: Trump demonstrated in his campaign against a Moss, will stand 1144 01:04:42,320 --> 01:04:45,800 Speaker 1: him in good stead in the competition with Russia and China. 1145 01:04:45,880 --> 01:04:49,120 Speaker 1: But it remains to be seen whether this president and 1146 01:04:49,240 --> 01:04:52,680 Speaker 1: the country he leads are ready for this sterner test 1147 01:04:52,800 --> 01:04:56,080 Speaker 1: to come. Food for thought. Thank you Walter Russell Meade 1148 01:04:56,520 --> 01:05:01,040 Speaker 1: for giving me an opportunity to well read six eight 1149 01:05:01,080 --> 01:05:04,120 Speaker 1: fifty five KRC detalk station.

In the meantime, related to 1193 01:07:09,000 --> 01:07:11,200 Speaker 1: absolutely nothing been talking about. I just got a big 1194 01:07:11,280 --> 01:07:12,040 Speaker 1: kick out of this. 1195 01:07:13,560 --> 01:07:13,800 Speaker 14: Uh. 1196 01:07:15,440 --> 01:07:20,320 Speaker 1: With FCC non compliant editorial comments written on the article 1197 01:07:20,400 --> 01:07:29,400 Speaker 1: by executive producer Joe Strecker Inhaler's people that have respiratory conditions, 1198 01:07:29,400 --> 01:07:32,240 Speaker 1: you know, the inhalers you have, Well, apparently you are 1199 01:07:32,360 --> 01:07:39,600 Speaker 1: killing the planet, you evil inhaler using asthmatics. The study 1200 01:07:39,640 --> 01:07:43,000 Speaker 1: published in the Journal of the American Medical Association JAMMA, 1201 01:07:43,120 --> 01:07:47,600 Speaker 1: apparently researchers found that inhalers approve for asthma and chronic 1202 01:07:47,640 --> 01:07:56,680 Speaker 1: obstructive pulmonary disease generated twenty four point nine million metric 1203 01:07:57,240 --> 01:08:01,080 Speaker 1: tons of carbon dioxide equivalent of MISI in the US 1204 01:08:01,120 --> 01:08:03,920 Speaker 1: alone between twenty fourteen and twenty twenty four over a 1205 01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:06,920 Speaker 1: ten year period. They say this is the equivalent to 1206 01:08:06,920 --> 01:08:11,560 Speaker 1: the emissions of five hundred and thirty thousand gasoline powered 1207 01:08:11,640 --> 01:08:21,759 Speaker 1: cars every year, gord to the authors, scaled across tens 1208 01:08:21,760 --> 01:08:25,799 Speaker 1: of millions of Inhaler's dispense annually. These emissions drive global warming, 1209 01:08:26,320 --> 01:08:29,880 Speaker 1: exacerbating the very respiratory conditions inhalers are meant to relieve. 1210 01:08:30,320 --> 01:08:33,920 Speaker 1: Oh wow, it's a circuitous problem here. Global warming is 1211 01:08:33,960 --> 01:08:36,640 Speaker 1: causing you to have asthma. Asthma were required to use 1212 01:08:36,680 --> 01:08:40,280 Speaker 1: the inhaler. The inhaler causes global warming sucks to be 1213 01:08:40,479 --> 01:08:43,439 Speaker 1: I guess us living on the planet Earth. That is, 1214 01:08:43,479 --> 01:08:46,919 Speaker 1: if you believe carbon dioxide plant food is actually a problem, 1215 01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:51,400 Speaker 1: and I am one that does not. Twenty eight million 1216 01:08:51,400 --> 01:08:54,320 Speaker 1: Americans have asthma, thirty four million of chronic lung disease. 1217 01:08:54,320 --> 01:08:58,000 Speaker 1: According to the Asthma Allergy Foundation, these cases are ready 1218 01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:03,040 Speaker 1: expected to grow well as climate change makes air pollution worse. 1219 01:09:06,680 --> 01:09:09,160 Speaker 1: They said, meter dose inhaler is the most harmful to 1220 01:09:09,200 --> 01:09:13,559 Speaker 1: the environment, accounting for ninety eight percent of emissions over 1221 01:09:13,640 --> 01:09:20,639 Speaker 1: that decade long period. I think this is a revealing 1222 01:09:20,760 --> 01:09:24,479 Speaker 1: of the reality that we're facing here now for folks 1223 01:09:24,520 --> 01:09:27,520 Speaker 1: like me who regularly observe that the city of Cincinnati 1224 01:09:27,640 --> 01:09:32,479 Speaker 1: can't do a blanken thing about global warming on its own, 1225 01:09:32,640 --> 01:09:36,400 Speaker 1: notably because we have the Chinese Communist Party belching out 1226 01:09:36,400 --> 01:09:40,439 Speaker 1: emissions that go across the entire planet Earth's atmosphere. We're 1227 01:09:40,479 --> 01:09:43,519 Speaker 1: all breathing the same air they belch out more than 1228 01:09:43,560 --> 01:09:50,200 Speaker 1: we remove from the environment nationally. So City of Cincinnati, 1229 01:09:50,280 --> 01:09:53,559 Speaker 1: you can just forget about your efforts. It's not helping anything, 1230 01:09:54,800 --> 01:09:58,839 Speaker 1: and then we have this pervasive problem of inhalers, probably 1231 01:09:58,960 --> 01:10:04,400 Speaker 1: just one singular product among most notably thousands of products 1232 01:10:04,439 --> 01:10:06,920 Speaker 1: out in the world that have some connection with putting 1233 01:10:06,920 --> 01:10:12,280 Speaker 1: carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. And while Greta Thunberg cries, 1234 01:10:13,240 --> 01:10:16,679 Speaker 1: the trees and the plants are all well very happy 1235 01:10:16,960 --> 01:10:19,160 Speaker 1: with that reality.

And you know the members spoke doing 1284 01:12:40,920 --> 01:12:43,400 Speaker 2: a vote of no confidence. They don't have any confidence 1285 01:12:43,439 --> 01:12:46,880 Speaker 2: in this mayor leading the city, which is exactly why 1286 01:12:46,920 --> 01:12:49,360 Speaker 2: it's done. And you know, I've been throughout the districts 1287 01:12:49,360 --> 01:12:52,439 Speaker 2: and I know it has gotten full support of every 1288 01:12:52,439 --> 01:12:53,439 Speaker 2: officer that I've talked to. 1289 01:12:54,280 --> 01:12:57,760 Speaker 1: Well he seem and I know Corey Bowman's you know 1290 01:12:57,960 --> 01:13:00,559 Speaker 1: comment about after have Parvoll, he's been react active.

He doesn't get ahead of problems with 1292 01:13:03,240 --> 01:13:06,840 Speaker 1: regard to policing, staffing, where they're located. I don't know 1293 01:13:06,840 --> 01:13:10,240 Speaker 1: how much control Mayor Aftab Purvol has about where the 1294 01:13:10,280 --> 01:13:13,439 Speaker 1: police are allocated. In terms of resources, you obviously need 1295 01:13:13,479 --> 01:13:17,360 Speaker 1: a couple of hundred additional officers. That's been a ongoing problem. 1296 01:13:17,360 --> 01:13:20,280 Speaker 1: But does he have any control over how these police 1297 01:13:20,320 --> 01:13:23,200 Speaker 1: officer resources are allocated or is that square in the 1298 01:13:23,560 --> 01:13:25,320 Speaker 1: lap of police chief Diji? 1299 01:13:26,880 --> 01:13:29,120 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, is somebody within city administration? 1300 01:13:29,200 --> 01:13:29,439 Speaker 1: Does? 1301 01:13:29,800 --> 01:13:31,519 Speaker 2: I mean? I know the mayor is taken credit for 1302 01:13:31,600 --> 01:13:35,880 Speaker 2: all the millions of dollars that has been allocated for 1303 01:13:35,920 --> 01:13:39,600 Speaker 2: the police, you know, as far as how those resources 1304 01:13:39,680 --> 01:13:42,799 Speaker 2: are deployed, I'm sure it's a conversation that the chief 1305 01:13:42,800 --> 01:13:44,760 Speaker 2: has with whether it's a city manager or the mayor. 1306 01:13:45,680 --> 01:13:48,120 Speaker 2: I do believe ultimately it does fall in the police chief. 1307 01:13:48,160 --> 01:13:52,240 Speaker 2: But of course we have an election year, so politics 1308 01:13:52,320 --> 01:13:54,320 Speaker 2: are running rampant, and there's a lot of things that 1309 01:13:54,360 --> 01:13:58,760 Speaker 2: I believe politicians are interjecting themselves in that isn't necessarily 1310 01:13:58,800 --> 01:13:59,839 Speaker 2: good for the police department. 1311 01:14:00,240 --> 01:14:03,200 Speaker 1: Well, specifically, what I would I mean, if I can say, 1312 01:14:03,200 --> 01:14:05,800 Speaker 1: if if if Ken Cobra FOP president is the mayor, 1313 01:14:05,920 --> 01:14:08,559 Speaker 1: what would you do and what what what is your desire? 1314 01:14:08,600 --> 01:14:10,280 Speaker 1: What are the desires of the men and women in 1315 01:14:10,400 --> 01:14:12,400 Speaker 1: uniform right now that aren't being addressed? 1316 01:14:13,560 --> 01:14:16,000 Speaker 2: Well, let the police chief the r the police department, 1317 01:14:17,160 --> 01:14:19,479 Speaker 2: you know, and let her make the decisions that she 1318 01:14:19,520 --> 01:14:23,720 Speaker 2: feels she needs to make without having city leaders tell 1319 01:14:23,720 --> 01:14:26,000 Speaker 2: her this is what you're gonna do. I'm a perfect 1320 01:14:26,000 --> 01:14:28,000 Speaker 2: example of that. And we saw that cops are being 1321 01:14:28,120 --> 01:14:31,920 Speaker 2: ordered to work, uh you know, work walking patrols on 1322 01:14:32,040 --> 01:14:35,160 Speaker 2: their off time, on an off day, they cancel their 1323 01:14:35,200 --> 01:14:37,000 Speaker 2: off days and they order them to work and you 1324 01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:40,080 Speaker 2: know walk on Main Street and Vine Street from Central 1325 01:14:40,120 --> 01:14:43,800 Speaker 2: Parkway to Liberty Street. That wasn't something that the police 1326 01:14:43,840 --> 01:14:45,920 Speaker 2: chief just came up with. This is something that city 1327 01:14:45,960 --> 01:14:50,360 Speaker 2: halls and it's things like that that you know, we're 1328 01:14:50,520 --> 01:14:53,280 Speaker 2: we're using you know, resources there when maybe they could 1329 01:14:53,280 --> 01:14:54,280 Speaker 2: be used somewhere differently. 1330 01:14:54,760 --> 01:14:56,439 Speaker 1: Well, there's a lot of neighborhoods in the City of 1331 01:14:56,439 --> 01:14:58,640 Speaker 1: Cincinnati we've seen to be focusing on the you know, 1332 01:14:58,680 --> 01:15:01,040 Speaker 1: like Government Square proputms. I knew after that was on 1333 01:15:01,080 --> 01:15:03,080 Speaker 1: a tear about the issues going on in Government Square, 1334 01:15:03,080 --> 01:15:05,559 Speaker 1: thinking maybe sort of might be able to hammer it out. 1335 01:15:06,720 --> 01:15:10,000 Speaker 1: What do you just real quick on that issue because 1336 01:15:10,040 --> 01:15:11,920 Speaker 1: I was kind of scratching my head over the mayor's 1337 01:15:11,960 --> 01:15:15,840 Speaker 1: comments looking for changes to Government Square. Wow, why is 1338 01:15:15,960 --> 01:15:18,800 Speaker 1: that the magnet? And if you crack down on Government Square, 1339 01:15:18,840 --> 01:15:21,240 Speaker 1: which is just loading and unloading zone. From my understanding 1340 01:15:21,280 --> 01:15:26,040 Speaker 1: for buses, wouldn't those reckless, you know, law breaking youths 1341 01:15:26,160 --> 01:15:28,479 Speaker 1: or whoever's hanging out there just move someplace else. 1342 01:15:29,800 --> 01:15:31,880 Speaker 2: Well, you know this, this has been the topic of 1343 01:15:31,920 --> 01:15:34,840 Speaker 2: discussion for the last two years now, is you see 1344 01:15:34,840 --> 01:15:37,160 Speaker 2: what's going on with juveniles. You have juveniles that have 1345 01:15:37,280 --> 01:15:40,759 Speaker 2: no business being downtown, but because they're given these bus 1346 01:15:40,800 --> 01:15:44,920 Speaker 2: passes after school, they all congregate downtown. So you have 1347 01:15:45,000 --> 01:15:48,160 Speaker 2: kids that don't belong, that don't live downtown, that are 1348 01:15:48,200 --> 01:15:50,439 Speaker 2: coming down there, and of course and they're clashing with 1349 01:15:50,800 --> 01:15:53,760 Speaker 2: kids from other neighborhoods that are driving as violence. And 1350 01:15:53,760 --> 01:15:57,240 Speaker 2: that's that is the really the crux of what the 1351 01:15:57,280 --> 01:16:01,280 Speaker 2: problems that we see after school, like Government Square, These 1352 01:16:01,280 --> 01:16:03,479 Speaker 2: aren't kids that are running around downtown that live down there. 1353 01:16:03,760 --> 01:16:08,400 Speaker 2: These are kids from Evanston, from Westwood, you know, neighborhoods 1354 01:16:08,439 --> 01:16:10,920 Speaker 2: all over the city that all come to the central 1355 01:16:10,920 --> 01:16:13,960 Speaker 2: location that quite honestly a lot of them don't have 1356 01:16:14,000 --> 01:16:15,639 Speaker 2: any business being down there to begin with. 1357 01:16:17,120 --> 01:16:20,000 Speaker 1: So, Yeah, in spite of my reaction this morning to 1358 01:16:20,080 --> 01:16:21,720 Speaker 1: what may I have to have purwell said, so there 1359 01:16:21,800 --> 01:16:26,479 Speaker 1: is really something to that is it? Is it just 1360 01:16:26,560 --> 01:16:30,280 Speaker 1: the transportation system generally, that by concentrating them there and 1361 01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:33,920 Speaker 1: by requiring all these these school aged kids to you know, 1362 01:16:34,040 --> 01:16:36,599 Speaker 1: ride the metro buses and end up in Government Square 1363 01:16:36,640 --> 01:16:39,000 Speaker 1: because it just that's the whe where the central location 1364 01:16:39,240 --> 01:16:42,120 Speaker 1: is that needs to be rethought or changed. 1365 01:16:43,200 --> 01:16:45,720 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I mean you have it's been suggested, and 1366 01:16:45,760 --> 01:16:48,559 Speaker 2: it's fallen on deaf ears as you have the transit 1367 01:16:48,600 --> 01:16:52,800 Speaker 2: center under Second Street that that could be used for 1368 01:16:52,880 --> 01:16:55,840 Speaker 2: a bus depot. That's exactly what it was built and 1369 01:16:55,920 --> 01:16:59,360 Speaker 2: designed to be. Yeah, and if you're if the kids 1370 01:16:59,360 --> 01:17:03,000 Speaker 2: are down there, it's not an attractive rut to me. Yeah, 1371 01:17:03,120 --> 01:17:05,760 Speaker 2: it's it's there's there's less opportunity for them to go 1372 01:17:05,880 --> 01:17:10,000 Speaker 2: disrupt businesses because you're literally, you know, in a in 1373 01:17:10,040 --> 01:17:14,160 Speaker 2: a concrete area where it is sole purpose is to 1374 01:17:14,240 --> 01:17:16,320 Speaker 2: get on one bus to go to another. You know. 1375 01:17:16,439 --> 01:17:18,760 Speaker 2: Put it in the heart of downtown, you know, at 1376 01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:21,160 Speaker 2: Fifth and Walna, in Fifth and Maine, and you have 1377 01:17:21,200 --> 01:17:24,120 Speaker 2: an opportunity with all these businesses with people there, for 1378 01:17:24,240 --> 01:17:27,200 Speaker 2: kids just to be disruptive. And like I said, it's 1379 01:17:27,240 --> 01:17:29,800 Speaker 2: been talked about and there's been so much pushback about 1380 01:17:29,840 --> 01:17:34,280 Speaker 2: it that transit tunnel sits empty ninety nine percent of 1381 01:17:34,320 --> 01:17:37,960 Speaker 2: the year. That's what I believe that they should look 1382 01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:41,640 Speaker 2: at moving that transit center down there to alleviate some 1383 01:17:41,680 --> 01:17:42,360 Speaker 2: of these problems. 1384 01:17:42,439 --> 01:17:44,559 Speaker 1: It sounds like a brilliant idea. You say, there's been 1385 01:17:44,600 --> 01:17:47,640 Speaker 1: pushback on that, pushback in what I mean, maybe not 1386 01:17:47,680 --> 01:17:50,439 Speaker 1: necessarily so much from whom, But what what is the 1387 01:17:50,600 --> 01:17:54,040 Speaker 1: argument against what seems like a very logical solution to 1388 01:17:54,080 --> 01:17:59,880 Speaker 1: the problem, at least something that it's worth trying out right, Well, I. 1389 01:17:59,840 --> 01:18:02,479 Speaker 2: Know from the metro perspective, and I can certainly understand 1390 01:18:02,479 --> 01:18:04,720 Speaker 2: where they're coming from, because you have these routes. They 1391 01:18:04,720 --> 01:18:07,840 Speaker 2: have routes down to literally a tenth of a mile, 1392 01:18:08,320 --> 01:18:10,519 Speaker 2: how long it takes, how much fuel it takes, all 1393 01:18:10,560 --> 01:18:13,320 Speaker 2: these things, And their contention is if we move at 1394 01:18:13,320 --> 01:18:17,519 Speaker 2: a half a mile, then the cost of doing business 1395 01:18:17,640 --> 01:18:20,600 Speaker 2: is going to go up, which I understand that, But 1396 01:18:21,280 --> 01:18:25,400 Speaker 2: the cost of leaving that where it is and destroying 1397 01:18:25,439 --> 01:18:28,120 Speaker 2: downtown and businesses I think is probably going to be 1398 01:18:28,200 --> 01:18:29,920 Speaker 2: much greater than what the cost of fuel is going 1399 01:18:29,960 --> 01:18:32,559 Speaker 2: to be to move the bus depot half a mile. 1400 01:18:32,680 --> 01:18:34,160 Speaker 1: Well, if you had to crunch the numbers and the 1401 01:18:34,200 --> 01:18:37,439 Speaker 1: allocation of police resources and the impact on business alone, 1402 01:18:37,520 --> 01:18:40,800 Speaker 1: I have to imagine that those two costs combined are 1403 01:18:41,320 --> 01:18:44,240 Speaker 1: greater than whatever it is would would be the cost 1404 01:18:44,320 --> 01:18:47,160 Speaker 1: impact of maybe dropping them off down at Second Street. 1405 01:18:48,400 --> 01:18:50,880 Speaker 2: Now, absolutely, that's what I said. I mean, we're at 1406 01:18:50,920 --> 01:18:53,360 Speaker 2: the point now where in my twenty five year career 1407 01:18:53,960 --> 01:18:57,439 Speaker 2: I hadn't heard of of one shooting at Fountain Square, 1408 01:18:57,520 --> 01:19:00,880 Speaker 2: much less two and five days, And it's only a 1409 01:19:00,920 --> 01:19:04,840 Speaker 2: matter of time before these businesses go enoughs enough, We're 1410 01:19:04,840 --> 01:19:07,240 Speaker 2: not dealing with this anymore. You know, you have police 1411 01:19:07,280 --> 01:19:09,240 Speaker 2: officers that are standing in Fountain Square and they're people 1412 01:19:09,280 --> 01:19:13,679 Speaker 2: shooting each other anyway, So they've got to do something 1413 01:19:13,720 --> 01:19:15,800 Speaker 2: to figure out how to deal with this. You know, 1414 01:19:15,840 --> 01:19:17,960 Speaker 2: the these traditional methods of wow, we're just going to 1415 01:19:18,000 --> 01:19:21,640 Speaker 2: throw fifty policemen down there, it's clearly not working. So 1416 01:19:21,720 --> 01:19:23,320 Speaker 2: they're going to have to think outside of the box 1417 01:19:23,360 --> 01:19:24,720 Speaker 2: and find a way to solve this problem, and they 1418 01:19:24,760 --> 01:19:25,599 Speaker 2: better solve it quickly. 1419 01:19:26,040 --> 01:19:28,519 Speaker 1: FOP President Cankalber, I'm gonna pause, We'll bring it back 1420 01:19:28,520 --> 01:19:30,599 Speaker 1: and maybe get a few more questions about the situation 1421 01:19:30,680 --> 01:19:32,880 Speaker 1: in downtown Cincinnati. We do have an election coming up. 1422 01:19:32,920 --> 01:19:35,000 Speaker 1: We could choose a different path in the city, and 1423 01:19:35,280 --> 01:19:38,360 Speaker 1: that's been my strong encouragement, most notably since my police 1424 01:19:38,400 --> 01:19:41,160 Speaker 1: department friends don't have any confidence in have to have 1425 01:19:41,320 --> 01:19:45,000 Speaker 1: parwall question, do they have confidence in police chief? Teresa Thigi? 1426 01:19:45,120 --> 01:19:47,280 Speaker 1: Let me ask that question coming back, Ken, preparing you 1427 01:19:47,320 --> 01:19:49,519 Speaker 1: for the next question seven to fifteen right now if 1428 01:19:49,560 --> 01:19:54,240 Speaker 1: you have k City Talks Tea the talk station seven 1429 01:19:54,320 --> 01:19:57,760 Speaker 1: nineteen fifty five kras De Talk Station, Hope you're having 1430 01:19:57,800 --> 01:20:00,880 Speaker 1: a decent Tuesday. Brian Thomas with FOP President Kob Chapter 1431 01:20:00,960 --> 01:20:05,360 Speaker 1: sixty nine represented this in sant Police Apartment, Ken Cober. Obviously, 1432 01:20:05,560 --> 01:20:07,720 Speaker 1: no confidence vote means you have no confidence in a 1433 01:20:07,880 --> 01:20:10,040 Speaker 1: may have to have purvol you said, you know, leave 1434 01:20:10,080 --> 01:20:13,799 Speaker 1: it the allocation of resources and police patrols and decision 1435 01:20:13,800 --> 01:20:16,679 Speaker 1: making with regard to since St Police Department and where 1436 01:20:16,680 --> 01:20:18,559 Speaker 1: they are that should be left up to police chief 1437 01:20:18,600 --> 01:20:22,400 Speaker 1: three Cythigi. Do the men and women in uniform have 1438 01:20:22,479 --> 01:20:25,880 Speaker 1: confidence in police chief? Three Cythigi. I've heard, and I've 1439 01:20:25,880 --> 01:20:27,800 Speaker 1: heard it from quite a few of the officers that 1440 01:20:27,840 --> 01:20:29,960 Speaker 1: I know, the answer to that question is no. That's 1441 01:20:30,000 --> 01:20:32,000 Speaker 1: what I have heard, and I know it's a delicate 1442 01:20:32,080 --> 01:20:35,559 Speaker 1: question to ask you FOP President Ken Kober, But where 1443 01:20:35,560 --> 01:20:38,400 Speaker 1: are we with regard to police Chief three Cythigi. 1444 01:20:39,840 --> 01:20:42,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, no one's come to me and said, look, I 1445 01:20:42,200 --> 01:20:43,800 Speaker 2: think we should take some kind of vote and no 1446 01:20:43,880 --> 01:20:46,880 Speaker 2: confidence on the chief. And this is where a lot 1447 01:20:46,880 --> 01:20:49,920 Speaker 2: of the frustration lies is in two thousand and five, 1448 01:20:50,040 --> 01:20:54,439 Speaker 2: when the voters passed Issue five that gave the city 1449 01:20:54,479 --> 01:20:56,920 Speaker 2: the sole authority to hire and fire a police chief. 1450 01:20:57,720 --> 01:21:01,519 Speaker 2: It completely ruined the position of chief. Now you have 1451 01:21:01,960 --> 01:21:04,400 Speaker 2: the police chief, and it's not just Chief Thiji, it's 1452 01:21:04,400 --> 01:21:07,880 Speaker 2: been every chief that's come after Chief Striker when he 1453 01:21:07,960 --> 01:21:12,000 Speaker 2: retired in twenty ten. They behold to the city manager 1454 01:21:12,040 --> 01:21:15,360 Speaker 2: and the mayor politics if they say, yeah, it's all politics. 1455 01:21:15,400 --> 01:21:19,160 Speaker 2: And that's why I've been very very vocal about politicians 1456 01:21:19,200 --> 01:21:22,400 Speaker 2: need to stay out a law enforcement and unfortunately we 1457 01:21:22,479 --> 01:21:25,320 Speaker 2: don't have that. We saw it when James Craig first 1458 01:21:25,360 --> 01:21:27,840 Speaker 2: got elected or first got appointed, and he was here 1459 01:21:27,880 --> 01:21:30,920 Speaker 2: for two years, made some fantastic changes. The troops loved him, 1460 01:21:31,160 --> 01:21:34,960 Speaker 2: and they got rid of him because the troops loved him. 1461 01:21:35,360 --> 01:21:37,280 Speaker 2: So now you know, fast forward to Chief Fiji, and 1462 01:21:37,320 --> 01:21:39,679 Speaker 2: it's like she's stuck between a rock and a hard place. 1463 01:21:39,680 --> 01:21:41,800 Speaker 2: And I get it. Now you have a boss that 1464 01:21:41,880 --> 01:21:44,120 Speaker 2: you have to answer to that's going to tell you you're 1465 01:21:43,920 --> 01:21:45,439 Speaker 2: gonna do this, You're gonna do that, and if you 1466 01:21:45,640 --> 01:21:49,680 Speaker 2: don't do it, then the consequences could be your terminated. 1467 01:21:50,400 --> 01:21:53,040 Speaker 2: So would I like to see her do things differently? 1468 01:21:53,200 --> 01:21:53,400 Speaker 10: Yeah? 1469 01:21:53,439 --> 01:21:57,840 Speaker 2: I would, But I also understand that you have somebody 1470 01:21:57,920 --> 01:21:59,320 Speaker 2: have to answer to. And if the mayor, of the 1471 01:21:59,320 --> 01:22:02,000 Speaker 2: city manager, or whoever it is that's above you is 1472 01:22:02,040 --> 01:22:03,640 Speaker 2: telling you you're gonna do this if you want to 1473 01:22:03,640 --> 01:22:04,960 Speaker 2: stay employed, that's what you have to do. 1474 01:22:05,400 --> 01:22:07,920 Speaker 1: You know. I am so glad that I asked you 1475 01:22:07,960 --> 01:22:10,800 Speaker 1: the question because I had I guess either wasn't aware 1476 01:22:10,880 --> 01:22:13,960 Speaker 1: or had forgotten the old way versus the new way. 1477 01:22:14,439 --> 01:22:17,519 Speaker 1: Who is in a better position to determine who the 1478 01:22:17,600 --> 01:22:21,240 Speaker 1: chief of police is than the police officers themselves. I mean, 1479 01:22:21,280 --> 01:22:24,479 Speaker 1: you guys are ladies and men. Are not going to 1480 01:22:24,520 --> 01:22:27,080 Speaker 1: select someone that's not going to be in your best interest. 1481 01:22:27,120 --> 01:22:29,120 Speaker 1: You're gonna look for the most competent person, the one 1482 01:22:29,120 --> 01:22:31,400 Speaker 1: who's going to hire based on merit, who's going to 1483 01:22:31,439 --> 01:22:34,960 Speaker 1: provide promotions based upon merit as opposed to who's politically connected, 1484 01:22:35,000 --> 01:22:38,479 Speaker 1: who fills in the right checkbox on some woke identity form. 1485 01:22:38,760 --> 01:22:41,960 Speaker 1: You know, is there any possibility we can go back 1486 01:22:42,000 --> 01:22:43,240 Speaker 1: to that Ken. 1487 01:22:43,960 --> 01:22:45,800 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, and you know it would take some kind 1488 01:22:45,800 --> 01:22:49,160 Speaker 2: of ballot initiative. But you know, while I understand, you know, 1489 01:22:49,200 --> 01:22:51,320 Speaker 2: this was the will of the people in two thousand 1490 01:22:51,360 --> 01:22:53,320 Speaker 2: and five, I think there should be there could be 1491 01:22:53,400 --> 01:22:56,160 Speaker 2: some compromise to be made. I think anytime you leave 1492 01:22:56,200 --> 01:22:58,840 Speaker 2: it to one or two people to determine, you know, 1493 01:22:59,240 --> 01:23:01,960 Speaker 2: whether or not, you know, the police chief is going 1494 01:23:02,040 --> 01:23:05,120 Speaker 2: to stay in that position, I think that that creates problems. 1495 01:23:06,040 --> 01:23:08,280 Speaker 2: You know what, maybe it's a something where you know, 1496 01:23:08,320 --> 01:23:11,320 Speaker 2: they put about initiative on where you know, we consider 1497 01:23:11,400 --> 01:23:15,200 Speaker 2: maybe the majority of council decides, you know, whether or 1498 01:23:15,240 --> 01:23:17,880 Speaker 2: not we hire or fire somebody. I don't know. There's 1499 01:23:17,880 --> 01:23:20,040 Speaker 2: a lot of things that I think need to be explored. 1500 01:23:20,040 --> 01:23:23,000 Speaker 2: But you know, the position a police chief needs to 1501 01:23:23,040 --> 01:23:28,320 Speaker 2: come with some protections. You know, if it's not FOP protection, 1502 01:23:28,920 --> 01:23:30,400 Speaker 2: then they got to be able to know that they 1503 01:23:30,439 --> 01:23:32,920 Speaker 2: can do and go out and do what they think 1504 01:23:33,040 --> 01:23:36,240 Speaker 2: is best for the police department, best for the city 1505 01:23:36,240 --> 01:23:39,720 Speaker 2: of Cincinnati, and do that without fear of making one 1506 01:23:39,760 --> 01:23:43,600 Speaker 2: person upset who's a politician, and and them have the 1507 01:23:43,640 --> 01:23:47,320 Speaker 2: ability just to get rid of it. Certainly handcuffs the 1508 01:23:47,320 --> 01:23:49,599 Speaker 2: police chief. And that's why you see. You know, it's 1509 01:23:49,600 --> 01:23:52,080 Speaker 2: not just Cincinnati, but all these major cities that now 1510 01:23:52,120 --> 01:23:55,240 Speaker 2: have this, They have a new police chief every two, three, 1511 01:23:55,280 --> 01:23:58,519 Speaker 2: four years. Yeah, we've gone through the same thing here, 1512 01:23:58,560 --> 01:24:00,880 Speaker 2: and it does a disservice not only did the police 1513 01:24:00,880 --> 01:24:03,919 Speaker 2: department to the men and women that served this police department, 1514 01:24:04,120 --> 01:24:07,360 Speaker 2: but also for the citizens. They deserve to have a 1515 01:24:07,400 --> 01:24:10,800 Speaker 2: police chief that is able to make decisions based off 1516 01:24:10,840 --> 01:24:13,720 Speaker 2: of what they think is best for law enforcement in 1517 01:24:13,760 --> 01:24:15,920 Speaker 2: the city, not based off of what a politician thinks 1518 01:24:15,960 --> 01:24:16,400 Speaker 2: we should do. 1519 01:24:16,920 --> 01:24:20,639 Speaker 1: And who I would argue that who would know better 1520 01:24:20,720 --> 01:24:22,920 Speaker 1: as police chief than someone who came up through the 1521 01:24:23,040 --> 01:24:26,479 Speaker 1: ranks within the City of Cincinnati police department. You hire 1522 01:24:26,520 --> 01:24:29,519 Speaker 1: somebody from some other city out there in the world, 1523 01:24:30,000 --> 01:24:31,559 Speaker 1: it's going to take him forever to get up to 1524 01:24:31,560 --> 01:24:33,720 Speaker 1: speed on how we operate here in the city. You 1525 01:24:33,720 --> 01:24:36,160 Speaker 1: can't just hit the ground running in that position. I 1526 01:24:36,200 --> 01:24:38,080 Speaker 1: would believe maybe I'm wrong on that. 1527 01:24:39,200 --> 01:24:41,000 Speaker 2: No, you're absolutely right, you know, like I said in 1528 01:24:41,120 --> 01:24:42,720 Speaker 2: James Craig was one of the few. He hit the 1529 01:24:42,720 --> 01:24:45,800 Speaker 2: ground running and did an absolutely fantastic job. I mean, 1530 01:24:45,800 --> 01:24:49,040 Speaker 2: he was what this city needed what the police department 1531 01:24:49,120 --> 01:24:51,760 Speaker 2: needed at that time, and he did a fantastic job. 1532 01:24:51,800 --> 01:24:54,960 Speaker 2: And unfortunately, because he stood on his own two feet 1533 01:24:55,479 --> 01:24:57,760 Speaker 2: and stood up to you know, at the time, the 1534 01:24:57,800 --> 01:25:00,560 Speaker 2: politicians that were at city Hall, you know he was 1535 01:25:00,600 --> 01:25:03,120 Speaker 2: there for two years, they didn't even offer a contract extension. 1536 01:25:03,120 --> 01:25:05,160 Speaker 2: They said, yeah, thanks, but no thanks to you later. 1537 01:25:06,280 --> 01:25:08,040 Speaker 2: And then of course he went up to Detroit and 1538 01:25:08,080 --> 01:25:10,920 Speaker 2: did some fantastic work up there. But you know, as 1539 01:25:10,920 --> 01:25:13,960 Speaker 2: long as this system is in place, you're never going 1540 01:25:14,040 --> 01:25:15,960 Speaker 2: to have a police chief that is going to stand 1541 01:25:16,000 --> 01:25:18,519 Speaker 2: there and say, no, I'm going to do what I 1542 01:25:18,640 --> 01:25:22,280 Speaker 2: think is best as a law enforcement professional. Is you 1543 01:25:22,280 --> 01:25:24,759 Speaker 2: know if that differs from what a politician says, because 1544 01:25:24,800 --> 01:25:26,600 Speaker 2: at the end of the day, if they want to 1545 01:25:26,640 --> 01:25:29,280 Speaker 2: stay employed, they're going to do what politicians tell him 1546 01:25:29,280 --> 01:25:32,160 Speaker 2: to do. And that's that is a slippery slope and 1547 01:25:32,200 --> 01:25:33,840 Speaker 2: we're seeing the effects of that now. 1548 01:25:34,520 --> 01:25:36,400 Speaker 1: I cannot thank you enough for coming in the Morning 1549 01:25:36,400 --> 01:25:40,360 Speaker 1: show today, Ken Cober. I appreciate that profound honesty and 1550 01:25:40,560 --> 01:25:43,040 Speaker 1: eye opening reality of what you're dealing with there. I 1551 01:25:43,040 --> 01:25:45,120 Speaker 1: think you've hit the nail on the head, my friend, 1552 01:25:45,160 --> 01:25:48,280 Speaker 1: and first time I've had a discussion involving that component 1553 01:25:48,400 --> 01:25:50,960 Speaker 1: of the sinsint Police Department. So maybe we can change 1554 01:25:51,000 --> 01:25:53,719 Speaker 1: things going down the road. In the meantime, we're stuck 1555 01:25:53,760 --> 01:25:56,760 Speaker 1: with what we've got and elections do have consequences. FLP 1556 01:25:56,840 --> 01:25:59,080 Speaker 1: President Ken Cober, thanks again, man, this has been a 1557 01:25:59,080 --> 01:26:01,599 Speaker 1: really enlightening converce, so I appreciate coming on the show 1558 01:26:01,680 --> 01:26:07,320 Speaker 1: talking about it.

I think that speaks volumes right. That's 1572 01:26:41,520 --> 01:26:45,360 Speaker 1: a really good one. Now you've got an actual written 1573 01:26:45,439 --> 01:26:48,800 Speaker 1: down for all to see and read proposal, which is 1574 01:26:48,840 --> 01:26:52,719 Speaker 1: a two prong approach to deal with the police staffing 1575 01:26:52,760 --> 01:26:54,559 Speaker 1: shortage and the problems we've got going on the City 1576 01:26:54,600 --> 01:26:59,400 Speaker 1: of Cincinnati. One is the Frontline Home Advantage Program initial 1577 01:26:59,439 --> 01:27:04,200 Speaker 1: CAP and the other the Officer Retention Incentive strategy. Break 1578 01:27:04,240 --> 01:27:06,439 Speaker 1: these down for my listeners, because I think that, I mean, 1579 01:27:06,479 --> 01:27:09,479 Speaker 1: we need more police officers. There's a shortage of officers, 1580 01:27:09,520 --> 01:27:13,200 Speaker 1: stating the obvious for the world to hear. Everywhere, everyone 1581 01:27:13,360 --> 01:27:16,280 Speaker 1: has lost officers because of this whole crap about defunding 1582 01:27:16,320 --> 01:27:18,400 Speaker 1: police and police are all racists and nobody wants to 1583 01:27:18,400 --> 01:27:22,559 Speaker 1: be a police officer. Fine, so we're competing with every 1584 01:27:22,680 --> 01:27:26,559 Speaker 1: other jurisdiction in the land for police officers. Were already 1585 01:27:26,600 --> 01:27:29,519 Speaker 1: down a couple of hundred hires. You got hang a 1586 01:27:29,560 --> 01:27:31,880 Speaker 1: carrot of incentive out there, and I think that's what 1587 01:27:31,920 --> 01:27:34,519 Speaker 1: your program is talking about. So let's talk about the 1588 01:27:34,640 --> 01:27:36,439 Speaker 1: Frontline Home Advantage Program. 1589 01:27:36,560 --> 01:27:42,120 Speaker 10: Erin great thank you. So when I got into this, 1590 01:27:42,240 --> 01:27:45,439 Speaker 10: I wanted to actually have some plans. I didn't want 1591 01:27:45,439 --> 01:27:47,439 Speaker 10: to just have ideas get on count So I wanted 1592 01:27:47,479 --> 01:27:50,479 Speaker 10: to make sure that I actually had a plan, and 1593 01:27:50,960 --> 01:27:53,320 Speaker 10: I wanted to use what I knew, and that's real estate. 1594 01:27:53,760 --> 01:27:56,479 Speaker 10: So the front the first prong of the Frontline Home 1595 01:27:56,520 --> 01:28:00,559 Speaker 10: Advantage program is a down payment assistance program. Let's bring 1596 01:28:00,600 --> 01:28:03,519 Speaker 10: police officers back into our city. I don't think any 1597 01:28:03,520 --> 01:28:06,639 Speaker 10: of many live in the city. And the first part 1598 01:28:06,680 --> 01:28:10,600 Speaker 10: of that is a downtayment assistance program. So let's just 1599 01:28:10,640 --> 01:28:14,000 Speaker 10: say that you save up to seven thousand, five hundred dollars, 1600 01:28:14,400 --> 01:28:18,040 Speaker 10: We'll match seven thousand, five hundred dollars. All of a sudden, 1601 01:28:18,080 --> 01:28:23,960 Speaker 10: you have fifteen thousand dollars to put down on a property. 1602 01:28:24,000 --> 01:28:27,160 Speaker 10: So that's five percent of a three hundred thousand dollars house, 1603 01:28:27,200 --> 01:28:30,120 Speaker 10: which is probably about the average price of a house 1604 01:28:30,240 --> 01:28:34,120 Speaker 10: right now. The other portion of that is a rental 1605 01:28:34,120 --> 01:28:38,200 Speaker 10: assistance program. Not all officers are going to be in 1606 01:28:38,200 --> 01:28:41,639 Speaker 10: a position maybe they want to buy right away. So 1607 01:28:42,560 --> 01:28:45,240 Speaker 10: let's develop a plan where we give some rental stipends, 1608 01:28:45,280 --> 01:28:46,760 Speaker 10: you know, two hundred and fifty dollars up to eight 1609 01:28:46,840 --> 01:28:50,600 Speaker 10: hundred dollars. Let's bring in some of our landlords in 1610 01:28:50,680 --> 01:28:54,040 Speaker 10: the neighborhoods. Let's talk to town properties, talk to uptown 1611 01:28:54,080 --> 01:28:56,920 Speaker 10: and see if they can give us some breaks on 1612 01:28:57,000 --> 01:29:01,800 Speaker 10: this to bring to bring people into the city and. 1613 01:29:01,920 --> 01:29:04,280 Speaker 1: Well, darn I got let me just introject real quick 1614 01:29:04,320 --> 01:29:09,000 Speaker 1: on that component. I always thought, you know, having a 1615 01:29:09,040 --> 01:29:11,880 Speaker 1: police officer in the neighborhood was a good thing. Like 1616 01:29:12,840 --> 01:29:15,040 Speaker 1: when we were selling our house in Oak Park, Illinois, 1617 01:29:15,080 --> 01:29:17,080 Speaker 1: there was a cop that lived about four doors down 1618 01:29:17,120 --> 01:29:19,240 Speaker 1: the street, and so when someone would come to our house, 1619 01:29:19,360 --> 01:29:20,960 Speaker 1: my wife would always make a point of the Hey, 1620 01:29:21,000 --> 01:29:22,920 Speaker 1: you know, there's a police officer. It's just a few 1621 01:29:22,960 --> 01:29:25,479 Speaker 1: doors down. It's like, hey, you sort of have this 1622 01:29:25,880 --> 01:29:29,120 Speaker 1: built in extra protection. Not that you're volunteering a police 1623 01:29:29,120 --> 01:29:31,479 Speaker 1: officer to do law enforcement twenty four to seven, but 1624 01:29:31,760 --> 01:29:34,000 Speaker 1: I think it is sort of a peace of mind 1625 01:29:34,000 --> 01:29:36,200 Speaker 1: thing that goes along with the rental, like, hey, you 1626 01:29:36,280 --> 01:29:38,360 Speaker 1: got a cop in the building. Isn't that a good thing? 1627 01:29:39,760 --> 01:29:42,200 Speaker 10: Absolutely, you're touching on. Really one of the one of 1628 01:29:42,240 --> 01:29:46,400 Speaker 10: the main byproducts in the holistic aspect of this of 1629 01:29:46,439 --> 01:29:49,479 Speaker 10: this program is that it addresses lots of issues and 1630 01:29:49,720 --> 01:29:52,320 Speaker 10: solving crime is not is not a quick fix. That's 1631 01:29:52,320 --> 01:29:55,519 Speaker 10: a long term process. So what it does it does 1632 01:29:55,520 --> 01:29:58,280 Speaker 10: it brings leadership into our communities. All of a sudden, 1633 01:29:58,880 --> 01:30:01,960 Speaker 10: people have someone that can look up to, maybe children 1634 01:30:02,000 --> 01:30:03,560 Speaker 10: have someone they can look up to maybe want to 1635 01:30:03,560 --> 01:30:08,280 Speaker 10: be a police officer someday. It also brings, like you said, visibility, 1636 01:30:08,320 --> 01:30:10,680 Speaker 10: they're going to bring the cop cards home. You know what, 1637 01:30:10,760 --> 01:30:14,280 Speaker 10: Landlard wouldn't want a police officer living in they're building. 1638 01:30:14,520 --> 01:30:18,519 Speaker 10: I think also also to what it does, Brian, which 1639 01:30:18,560 --> 01:30:20,640 Speaker 10: is I don't think anyone would have a problem with 1640 01:30:20,680 --> 01:30:23,720 Speaker 10: this no matter where you are politically. It deals with 1641 01:30:23,760 --> 01:30:26,320 Speaker 10: the issue of trust, right, So all of a sudden 1642 01:30:27,040 --> 01:30:29,680 Speaker 10: someone is your neighbor. It's hard to be indifferent when 1643 01:30:29,760 --> 01:30:31,800 Speaker 10: someone is your neighbors. So you have that you build 1644 01:30:31,800 --> 01:30:35,759 Speaker 10: that trust with with our police officers, which really speaks 1645 01:30:35,800 --> 01:30:38,120 Speaker 10: to the community policing, which is which is a cornerstone 1646 01:30:38,240 --> 01:30:41,599 Speaker 10: of our policing in the city. So to me, it's 1647 01:30:41,640 --> 01:30:45,840 Speaker 10: just so many It solves so many issues in this process. 1648 01:30:46,320 --> 01:30:50,360 Speaker 1: I love the idea. The only counter argument to the 1649 01:30:50,560 --> 01:30:53,400 Speaker 1: incentives you're suggesting for living in the city of Cincinnati 1650 01:30:53,560 --> 01:30:58,200 Speaker 1: is does requiring a police officer to live within the 1651 01:30:58,240 --> 01:31:03,120 Speaker 1: city limits operate as a disincentive for outside lateral hires 1652 01:31:03,200 --> 01:31:06,400 Speaker 1: Because clearly we have some issues in the city of 1653 01:31:06,479 --> 01:31:08,519 Speaker 1: sin saying in terms of crime and living and all 1654 01:31:08,560 --> 01:31:09,200 Speaker 1: that kind of thing. 1655 01:31:10,520 --> 01:31:11,360 Speaker 14: Let me be clear. 1656 01:31:11,920 --> 01:31:14,880 Speaker 10: First of all, it's not even legal to require them 1657 01:31:14,920 --> 01:31:17,160 Speaker 10: to live here. This is an incentive. This is a 1658 01:31:17,200 --> 01:31:21,040 Speaker 10: way to it's a recruiting incentive, and it's a way 1659 01:31:21,080 --> 01:31:25,760 Speaker 10: to add a carrot to our recruiting process and just 1660 01:31:26,160 --> 01:31:28,760 Speaker 10: an incentive. And with the cost of rents now, especially 1661 01:31:29,400 --> 01:31:32,479 Speaker 10: some of the younger police officers, if they're getting a 1662 01:31:32,479 --> 01:31:34,879 Speaker 10: break on their rent, it might be an easy incentive 1663 01:31:34,920 --> 01:31:36,519 Speaker 10: for them to want to come and work with us. 1664 01:31:36,520 --> 01:31:39,040 Speaker 10: So it's absolutely not a mandate, and I do not 1665 01:31:39,160 --> 01:31:44,200 Speaker 10: want that to be misconstrued. It's an incentive. It's an incentive. 1666 01:31:44,320 --> 01:31:47,280 Speaker 1: It's there for the taking. If it operates as an 1667 01:31:47,280 --> 01:31:50,679 Speaker 1: incentive for a lateral higher than bully for everybody, it worked, 1668 01:31:50,720 --> 01:31:53,240 Speaker 1: So I like it. I really really like the idea 1669 01:31:53,240 --> 01:31:56,880 Speaker 1: of having a physical police officer sort of in my 1670 01:31:57,040 --> 01:31:59,960 Speaker 1: building or as my neighbor. I'll emphasize that yet again, 1671 01:32:00,080 --> 01:32:03,200 Speaker 1: let's pause. That was the frontline home advantage program. There's 1672 01:32:03,200 --> 01:32:05,559 Speaker 1: another component to what Aaron's running on, and this is 1673 01:32:05,600 --> 01:32:08,800 Speaker 1: the officer retention incentive strategy. We'll break that down. We 1674 01:32:08,800 --> 01:32:10,639 Speaker 1: get back at seven thirty five right now, fifty five 1675 01:32:10,680 --> 01:32:17,479 Speaker 1: K station at fifty five ar CEE talk station and 1676 01:32:17,520 --> 01:32:20,320 Speaker 1: find them online. Help out his campaign. Aaron Winer on 1677 01:32:20,400 --> 01:32:23,479 Speaker 1: the program, returning It's Winer w E I N E 1678 01:32:23,680 --> 01:32:26,519 Speaker 1: R four f O R Cincinnati dot com. Check out 1679 01:32:26,520 --> 01:32:30,080 Speaker 1: his website. He's common sense guy and real quickly before 1680 01:32:30,160 --> 01:32:34,200 Speaker 1: leaving the frontline Home Advantage program providing some financial assistance 1681 01:32:34,240 --> 01:32:37,600 Speaker 1: to police officers to get a home or some rent assistance. 1682 01:32:39,720 --> 01:32:42,040 Speaker 1: You are you've been in real estate for I understand 1683 01:32:42,040 --> 01:32:44,280 Speaker 1: like twenty five years, so you understand this component. But 1684 01:32:44,360 --> 01:32:48,960 Speaker 1: the funding for this particular program you're you're suggesting will 1685 01:32:49,000 --> 01:32:52,080 Speaker 1: be from, at least in part participating realtors with the 1686 01:32:52,120 --> 01:32:54,799 Speaker 1: reduction in their commission to help deal with that rent reduction. 1687 01:32:54,920 --> 01:32:58,320 Speaker 1: That's and the seventy five hundred dollars toward purchase of 1688 01:32:58,360 --> 01:33:01,120 Speaker 1: a home. So do you have folks who are willing 1689 01:33:01,120 --> 01:33:02,720 Speaker 1: to participate beyond you erin? 1690 01:33:04,280 --> 01:33:07,200 Speaker 10: Well, I think let's let's let's let's start with that. 1691 01:33:07,200 --> 01:33:10,240 Speaker 10: That to be candid, I would I would recuse myself 1692 01:33:10,320 --> 01:33:13,120 Speaker 10: from doing this program if I were an elected official 1693 01:33:13,240 --> 01:33:15,559 Speaker 10: jute too, just to. 1694 01:33:17,160 --> 01:33:20,400 Speaker 1: You know, avoid the appearance of impropriety. Yes, I get it. 1695 01:33:20,560 --> 01:33:24,000 Speaker 10: In propriety correct, I would certainly be an ardent supporter 1696 01:33:24,120 --> 01:33:28,840 Speaker 10: of it. But yes, so as as a realtor, we 1697 01:33:29,320 --> 01:33:32,360 Speaker 10: we're it's basically called an acinity program. And certainly they 1698 01:33:32,360 --> 01:33:34,760 Speaker 10: have them with the hospitals, they have them with with 1699 01:33:34,960 --> 01:33:39,000 Speaker 10: UC and we're used to if we're working with the 1700 01:33:39,040 --> 01:33:42,920 Speaker 10: relocation company bringing someone in with Procter and Gamble, we're 1701 01:33:43,080 --> 01:33:46,040 Speaker 10: used to paying a referral fee for that business. And 1702 01:33:46,080 --> 01:33:49,280 Speaker 10: certainly it's not ideal and some agents like to do it, 1703 01:33:49,400 --> 01:33:52,240 Speaker 10: some agents don't like to do it, but it's certainly 1704 01:33:52,280 --> 01:33:55,559 Speaker 10: a part of our business model. We're independent contractors. Either 1705 01:33:55,600 --> 01:33:58,200 Speaker 10: you do it or you don't. But these referral fees 1706 01:33:58,240 --> 01:34:00,679 Speaker 10: can be anywhere between thirty five and forty five percent 1707 01:34:01,080 --> 01:34:06,400 Speaker 10: of the commission that's earned in the sale. So yeah, 1708 01:34:06,439 --> 01:34:07,479 Speaker 10: people are going to say, how are you going to 1709 01:34:07,520 --> 01:34:10,360 Speaker 10: pay for this? Aaron, Well, we've got an industry that's 1710 01:34:10,400 --> 01:34:14,599 Speaker 10: willing to participate. And I'll tell you I've I've talked 1711 01:34:14,600 --> 01:34:17,559 Speaker 10: to local people here at Carbell Banker. You know, we're 1712 01:34:17,600 --> 01:34:19,360 Speaker 10: a big company. It has to go up to the flagpole. 1713 01:34:19,400 --> 01:34:21,800 Speaker 10: But I talked to Scott Nelson, who's a dear friend 1714 01:34:21,800 --> 01:34:25,559 Speaker 10: of mine, in a brilliant mind in real estate. He 1715 01:34:25,720 --> 01:34:29,000 Speaker 10: loved the idea has to obviously think through the strategics 1716 01:34:29,000 --> 01:34:31,600 Speaker 10: of it, and I'm sure Sis Decline haven't talked to 1717 01:34:31,600 --> 01:34:33,479 Speaker 10: them yet and a lot of the other agents what 1718 01:34:33,520 --> 01:34:36,559 Speaker 10: would have follow So yes, it's something that we as 1719 01:34:36,560 --> 01:34:38,680 Speaker 10: an industry I think can easily do. And like I 1720 01:34:38,720 --> 01:34:40,760 Speaker 10: said in the beginning of the show, I wanted to 1721 01:34:40,760 --> 01:34:42,519 Speaker 10: do something that I could do. I wanted to have 1722 01:34:42,600 --> 01:34:45,360 Speaker 10: action plans, and this is what I know clearly. 1723 01:34:45,920 --> 01:34:49,559 Speaker 1: And we're not talking about a massive volume of money here. 1724 01:34:49,600 --> 01:34:52,280 Speaker 1: I mean, how many police officers do we have collectively 1725 01:34:52,280 --> 01:34:55,240 Speaker 1: It's around nine hundred. We need about twelve hundred or so, 1726 01:34:55,240 --> 01:34:57,240 Speaker 1: So the number of people that would be able to 1727 01:34:57,240 --> 01:34:59,840 Speaker 1: participate in this is not significant in terms of loss 1728 01:34:59,880 --> 01:35:03,760 Speaker 1: of commission. So I I it's sound proposal. I really 1729 01:35:03,760 --> 01:35:07,040 Speaker 1: do believe erin Now. The other thing, yeah, I know, 1730 01:35:07,280 --> 01:35:10,200 Speaker 1: it's it makes great sense to me and officers who 1731 01:35:10,320 --> 01:35:12,479 Speaker 1: choose to reside in Since any one final component of 1732 01:35:12,479 --> 01:35:15,960 Speaker 1: that plan a thousand dollars annual residency bonus, I think 1733 01:35:16,000 --> 01:35:17,320 Speaker 1: that seems to be quite doable. 1734 01:35:18,520 --> 01:35:21,559 Speaker 10: Absolutely, absolutely, and honestly I want to offer this to 1735 01:35:21,720 --> 01:35:26,760 Speaker 10: the police office that are currently starving our city, but 1736 01:35:26,840 --> 01:35:29,519 Speaker 10: maybe live out in the suburbs. Let's let's give let's 1737 01:35:29,600 --> 01:35:31,360 Speaker 10: let's give it to them too. Let's bring them into 1738 01:35:31,360 --> 01:35:32,960 Speaker 10: the city as well. I mean, we want people in 1739 01:35:32,960 --> 01:35:35,759 Speaker 10: the city to let let's bring them there too. Maybe 1740 01:35:35,800 --> 01:35:38,519 Speaker 10: maybe someone who lives in Green Township. They're empty nesters, 1741 01:35:38,760 --> 01:35:40,840 Speaker 10: Let's bring them to one of our condos downtown something 1742 01:35:40,880 --> 01:35:42,800 Speaker 10: like that. Let's let's let's offer that to them too. 1743 01:35:42,840 --> 01:35:45,640 Speaker 10: And I definitely want to expand on this. It's a 1744 01:35:45,640 --> 01:35:48,839 Speaker 10: pilot program. Let's let's open it up to our fire 1745 01:35:49,920 --> 01:35:52,000 Speaker 10: at some point. Let's let's maybe talk about do we 1746 01:35:52,040 --> 01:35:55,040 Speaker 10: want this for teachers again, Let's it's bringing leadership into 1747 01:35:55,080 --> 01:35:58,960 Speaker 10: the city for for these these long term goals. So 1748 01:35:59,120 --> 01:36:01,840 Speaker 10: this is this is where I see this going long term. 1749 01:36:01,840 --> 01:36:03,760 Speaker 10: But this is my pilot right now. 1750 01:36:04,120 --> 01:36:07,920 Speaker 1: Fair enough, now we are losing experienced officers. I am 1751 01:36:08,400 --> 01:36:11,519 Speaker 1: painfully aware of people officers who are in the drop program, 1752 01:36:11,560 --> 01:36:14,160 Speaker 1: which I think the last about five years, they're just saying, 1753 01:36:14,240 --> 01:36:17,000 Speaker 1: forget about it. I'm done, I can't handle this anymore. 1754 01:36:17,040 --> 01:36:19,280 Speaker 1: I'm dropping out a drop and I'm just going to retire, 1755 01:36:19,720 --> 01:36:23,160 Speaker 1: or they're leaving for other police forces. Going back to 1756 01:36:23,200 --> 01:36:25,439 Speaker 1: this lateral higher phenomenon, if you're a sin Sat police 1757 01:36:25,479 --> 01:36:28,200 Speaker 1: officers some other jurisdiction would love to have you working 1758 01:36:28,240 --> 01:36:30,160 Speaker 1: for them. So how do we deal with this? You 1759 01:36:30,200 --> 01:36:34,000 Speaker 1: have an officer retention incentive strategy to address this problem. 1760 01:36:34,720 --> 01:36:37,800 Speaker 10: Correct, correct, So there's several facets to that as well. 1761 01:36:38,400 --> 01:36:41,840 Speaker 10: And just to give a background, so you only got 1762 01:36:41,880 --> 01:36:44,679 Speaker 10: like three pages of three or four pages of this report, 1763 01:36:44,720 --> 01:36:47,960 Speaker 10: and it's a fifteen page report that we've done research 1764 01:36:48,000 --> 01:36:51,280 Speaker 10: on me and my staff and it's working in different 1765 01:36:51,320 --> 01:36:54,799 Speaker 10: in different cities like Baltimore and Detroit and Los Angeles 1766 01:36:54,800 --> 01:36:57,519 Speaker 10: and there have you. So we're used to hearing the 1767 01:36:58,040 --> 01:37:01,200 Speaker 10: people who are getting buyofs to tire early. Well, this 1768 01:37:01,280 --> 01:37:03,280 Speaker 10: is a buy in, So this is this is sort 1769 01:37:03,320 --> 01:37:07,600 Speaker 10: of paying people to stay longer. Just to give you 1770 01:37:07,640 --> 01:37:11,200 Speaker 10: some data. So let's say you're you're getting ready to retire. 1771 01:37:11,920 --> 01:37:14,559 Speaker 10: Maybe you'll get five thousand dollars if you stay an 1772 01:37:14,560 --> 01:37:18,599 Speaker 10: extra year, Maybe you stay three additional years as we 1773 01:37:18,720 --> 01:37:22,720 Speaker 10: ramp up on our staffing, up to twelve thousand dollars 1774 01:37:22,840 --> 01:37:29,200 Speaker 10: to stay instead of leave. It involves one time retention 1775 01:37:29,920 --> 01:37:34,920 Speaker 10: retention dollars. Let's say you're maybe you're working in a 1776 01:37:34,960 --> 01:37:40,000 Speaker 10: more stressful location of the city and you're thinking about. 1777 01:37:40,160 --> 01:37:44,120 Speaker 10: It's a one time incentive, targeted incentives. This is focused 1778 01:37:44,120 --> 01:37:47,000 Speaker 10: on retention for officers with the five to fifteen years experience, who, 1779 01:37:47,040 --> 01:37:49,920 Speaker 10: like you said, might be attracted to go to Blue 1780 01:37:49,960 --> 01:37:52,960 Speaker 10: ash or Green Township or Springfield Township where I grew up. 1781 01:37:53,080 --> 01:37:56,680 Speaker 10: So these are just some of the ways of of 1782 01:37:57,920 --> 01:38:03,600 Speaker 10: keeping people rewarding them for staying on and investing in 1783 01:38:03,600 --> 01:38:04,040 Speaker 10: our city. 1784 01:38:05,080 --> 01:38:07,960 Speaker 1: You know what an interesting concept erin. I know that 1785 01:38:08,000 --> 01:38:10,320 Speaker 1: there are private businesses out in the world who offer 1786 01:38:10,720 --> 01:38:14,639 Speaker 1: bonuses annually for you know, valuable employees. It's a wonderful 1787 01:38:14,640 --> 01:38:16,559 Speaker 1: thing to know that if you have a big bonus potential, 1788 01:38:16,560 --> 01:38:18,760 Speaker 1: it kind of keeps you on your toes and gives 1789 01:38:18,800 --> 01:38:20,640 Speaker 1: you an incentive to work a little bit harder. So 1790 01:38:20,800 --> 01:38:23,600 Speaker 1: I have no fault with paying our police officers a 1791 01:38:23,600 --> 01:38:25,200 Speaker 1: little bit more, and I like the idea of keeping 1792 01:38:25,200 --> 01:38:30,599 Speaker 1: them around longer.

Looking forward 1833 01:40:22,400 --> 01:40:23,840 Speaker 1: to the inside scoop after the top of the r 1834 01:40:23,920 --> 01:40:25,240 Speaker 1: new is always looking forward to that Trump in the 1835 01:40:25,240 --> 01:40:27,639 Speaker 1: Middle East peace, that's the subject matter with White House 1836 01:40:27,640 --> 01:40:30,439 Speaker 1: correspondent Nick Gilberts and plus Daniel Davis deep dive. Yes, 1837 01:40:30,479 --> 01:40:33,800 Speaker 1: he will talk about the Middle East and peace question mark. 1838 01:40:33,920 --> 01:40:35,679 Speaker 1: A lot of details to iron out, but the world 1839 01:40:35,720 --> 01:40:38,240 Speaker 1: seems to be celebrating and obviously given Donald Trump a 1840 01:40:38,240 --> 01:40:40,280 Speaker 1: bit of a credit for that, But it was a 1841 01:40:40,320 --> 01:40:42,960 Speaker 1: whole series of events that sort of the stars aligne 1842 01:40:43,040 --> 01:40:45,639 Speaker 1: that forced Hamas into a corner, and not a good 1843 01:40:45,640 --> 01:40:49,479 Speaker 1: corner for Hamas. They cite better relations between the United 1844 01:40:49,479 --> 01:40:52,679 Speaker 1: States Turkey gave Trump the leverage among countries with ties 1845 01:40:52,720 --> 01:40:56,800 Speaker 1: to Hamas. Let's point it out, many of the Gulf 1846 01:40:56,840 --> 01:40:59,280 Speaker 1: states a little bit of alarm that the war might 1847 01:40:59,400 --> 01:41:03,000 Speaker 1: endanger the our own security, notably because the Israeli airstrike 1848 01:41:03,040 --> 01:41:06,280 Speaker 1: against the Hamas in Cutter. No one saw that coming. 1849 01:41:06,320 --> 01:41:08,400 Speaker 1: Cutters like, whoa, whoa, whoa, what's the deal here? We're 1850 01:41:08,439 --> 01:41:11,800 Speaker 1: getting bombed. Hmm, this is a problem. Hamas is in 1851 01:41:11,840 --> 01:41:15,280 Speaker 1: our neighborhood and Israelers are coming after him. Allah Donald 1852 01:41:15,360 --> 01:41:18,240 Speaker 1: Trump and his air strikes into countries against whom we 1853 01:41:18,320 --> 01:41:22,240 Speaker 1: have no declaration of war. Interesting develop that development that 1854 01:41:23,600 --> 01:41:28,120 Speaker 1: Hamas was undergrowing pressure at home, no money, not able 1855 01:41:28,120 --> 01:41:30,439 Speaker 1: to keep up the grilla warfare against the Israeli forces 1856 01:41:30,479 --> 01:41:33,800 Speaker 1: which really rolled over at Gaza. And in the aftermath 1857 01:41:33,840 --> 01:41:35,599 Speaker 1: of Hamas entering this deal, you can see that there 1858 01:41:35,600 --> 01:41:38,920 Speaker 1: are factions fighting amongst themselves. People that you thought were 1859 01:41:38,960 --> 01:41:42,320 Speaker 1: all aligned together under the Hamas umbrella really not a 1860 01:41:42,360 --> 01:41:45,760 Speaker 1: bunch of splitter organizations out there, and they're fighting amongst themselves. 1861 01:41:46,800 --> 01:41:49,679 Speaker 1: Benjamin Natanyahu had to publicly agree to end the war, 1862 01:41:49,840 --> 01:41:54,400 Speaker 1: and that helped Hamas realize that, oh my god, we're 1863 01:41:54,439 --> 01:42:02,280 Speaker 1: the lone holdout man. We're losing. The world's turning against us. 1864 01:42:02,360 --> 01:42:05,040 Speaker 1: By the fact, you may have some pro Hamas protesters 1865 01:42:05,080 --> 01:42:07,680 Speaker 1: in the streets of New York or elsewhere here in 1866 01:42:07,720 --> 01:42:13,080 Speaker 1: the United States, those college educated, woke youngsters aren't enough 1867 01:42:13,080 --> 01:42:18,000 Speaker 1: to change the tide for Hamas. So the stars align, 1868 01:42:18,160 --> 01:42:22,080 Speaker 1: you can say it's divine or not. Progress is being made, 1869 01:42:22,240 --> 01:42:24,320 Speaker 1: and that is a beautiful thing to behold. I'm looking 1870 01:42:24,320 --> 01:42:26,440 Speaker 1: forward to what Daniel Davis has by way of analysis 1871 01:42:26,479 --> 01:42:28,559 Speaker 1: on that at the bottom of the next hour. Of course, 1872 01:42:28,560 --> 01:42:33,280 Speaker 1: we'll be talking about that with Nick Gilbertson as well. 1873 01:42:33,720 --> 01:42:35,920 Speaker 1: Seven fifty five right now fifty five K Steve Talks Station. 1874 01:42:36,320 --> 01:42:39,439 Speaker 1: And I apologize I mentioned when I started out the program, 1875 01:42:39,479 --> 01:42:41,800 Speaker 1: and I also commented on the six o'clock hour, got 1876 01:42:41,800 --> 01:42:44,920 Speaker 1: this dizzy reality going on. I don't know what it is. 1877 01:42:44,960 --> 01:42:47,760 Speaker 1: It's like vertigo, you know what think I'm glad I 1878 01:42:47,800 --> 01:42:51,960 Speaker 1: set it out round positional vertigo. My friend John just 1879 01:42:51,960 --> 01:42:54,680 Speaker 1: said he's got that, and there's a maneuver you can 1880 01:42:54,720 --> 01:42:56,240 Speaker 1: do called the Epply maneuver to get rid of it. 1881 01:42:56,280 --> 01:42:58,200 Speaker 1: But it's like you're dizzy for some reason. I don't 1882 01:42:58,200 --> 01:43:00,439 Speaker 1: have allergies. I'm not having any problems with my health 1883 01:43:00,479 --> 01:43:03,120 Speaker 1: or anything, but I'm just feeling that way. I think 1884 01:43:03,200 --> 01:43:05,160 Speaker 1: you hit the nail on the head. For whoever called 1885 01:43:05,200 --> 01:43:09,080 Speaker 1: first and said maybe it's positional vertigo, I think that's it. 1886 01:43:09,360 --> 01:43:11,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do the Apple maneuver when I get off 1887 01:43:11,000 --> 01:43:12,920 Speaker 1: the program. Hopefully I'll solve this problem. I don't want 1888 01:43:12,960 --> 01:43:14,360 Speaker 1: to deal with it much more again, or at least 1889 01:43:14,360 --> 01:43:16,559 Speaker 1: I have a way out of it, but learn something 1890 01:43:16,600 --> 01:43:20,080 Speaker 1: every day and I'm included on that.

And certainly, yeah, 1914 01:44:22,840 --> 01:44:25,960 Speaker 4: I know it's I think this is Trump's crowning achievement 1915 01:44:26,160 --> 01:44:30,280 Speaker 4: thus far in his term. And you know, it's pretty amazing. 1916 01:44:30,479 --> 01:44:35,160 Speaker 4: I think some thirty countries were there, yes, from all 1917 01:44:35,200 --> 01:44:38,880 Speaker 4: over the world, so just really remarkable, remarkable stuff and what. 1918 01:44:38,960 --> 01:44:41,840 Speaker 1: To show you to be And there's a lot of 1919 01:44:41,880 --> 01:44:43,960 Speaker 1: details that need to be ironed out. I know one 1920 01:44:43,960 --> 01:44:47,200 Speaker 1: of the remains of the deceased hostages, which is sad 1921 01:44:47,280 --> 01:44:49,519 Speaker 1: in and of itself that we were talking about. You know, 1922 01:44:49,600 --> 01:44:52,000 Speaker 1: they didn't even keep the hostages alive. A lot of 1923 01:44:52,040 --> 01:44:55,280 Speaker 1: them died, so we've got that really black mark on 1924 01:44:55,320 --> 01:44:58,320 Speaker 1: the whole process. But finding the remains of the balance 1925 01:44:58,360 --> 01:45:00,600 Speaker 1: of them. Hamas claims that it doesn doesn't even know 1926 01:45:00,600 --> 01:45:03,200 Speaker 1: where they are. There's so many different I suppose factions 1927 01:45:03,880 --> 01:45:07,160 Speaker 1: of Hamas out in the world. They're fighting amongst themselves now. 1928 01:45:07,200 --> 01:45:10,120 Speaker 1: But are these like splitter groups within the Hamas umbrella 1929 01:45:10,200 --> 01:45:12,480 Speaker 1: that are keeping these the dead hostages. 1930 01:45:14,800 --> 01:45:17,479 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think at this point there's been so all 1931 01:45:17,520 --> 01:45:20,320 Speaker 4: twenty of the living hostages were you know, returned right 1932 01:45:20,439 --> 01:45:24,000 Speaker 4: day and reunited. But I know they were saying that 1933 01:45:24,280 --> 01:45:27,559 Speaker 4: there were twenty eight they believed the presidents of last 1934 01:45:27,600 --> 01:45:33,520 Speaker 4: week that were still or that were deceased tragically horrifically, 1935 01:45:33,680 --> 01:45:37,720 Speaker 4: and I know they returned. For of the deceased, I 1936 01:45:37,760 --> 01:45:41,880 Speaker 4: don't think they've been identified yet those remained, so by deduction, 1937 01:45:41,960 --> 01:45:45,240 Speaker 4: there there's twenty four bodies that need to be you know, 1938 01:45:45,320 --> 01:45:48,920 Speaker 4: relocated and recovered and brought home and returned to their 1939 01:45:48,920 --> 01:45:49,519 Speaker 4: loved ones. 1940 01:45:50,160 --> 01:45:52,800 Speaker 1: Do we know right now? One of the original terms 1941 01:45:52,800 --> 01:45:55,040 Speaker 1: of the twenty point plan that Donald Trump rolled out 1942 01:45:55,120 --> 01:45:59,960 Speaker 1: was Hamas must disarm. A question have they agreed to 1943 01:46:00,200 --> 01:46:02,880 Speaker 1: do that? And second question is sort of a follow 1944 01:46:02,960 --> 01:46:05,919 Speaker 1: up to the where are the dead hostages? If AMAS 1945 01:46:05,960 --> 01:46:09,080 Speaker 1: doesn't even know within its multiple splitter organizations where the 1946 01:46:09,080 --> 01:46:12,400 Speaker 1: dead hostages are, can it really agree on behalf of 1947 01:46:12,640 --> 01:46:15,160 Speaker 1: you know, like the I don't know campaign for Free 1948 01:46:15,240 --> 01:46:19,120 Speaker 1: Galilee subset of Hamas. Can they guarantee that all of 1949 01:46:19,120 --> 01:46:22,479 Speaker 1: these different entities would disarm? 1950 01:46:22,840 --> 01:46:25,720 Speaker 4: That's a that's a great question, Brian. I know the 1951 01:46:25,720 --> 01:46:29,240 Speaker 4: President said yesterday and these other countries that were kind 1952 01:46:29,240 --> 01:46:32,360 Speaker 4: of intra are key here in bringing. 1953 01:46:32,000 --> 01:46:32,759 Speaker 9: This deal about. 1954 01:46:32,960 --> 01:46:36,240 Speaker 11: And I know, uh, you know, like Egypt. 1955 01:46:36,640 --> 01:46:40,800 Speaker 4: Turkey, Qatar, all those other countries. President Trump, when when 1956 01:46:40,840 --> 01:46:43,840 Speaker 4: he was talking about supporting Gaza yesterday, he put a 1957 01:46:43,880 --> 01:46:50,240 Speaker 4: major emphasis on militarization of Gaz, you know, of of 1958 01:46:50,240 --> 01:46:53,760 Speaker 4: of the police or rather of Gozzin's and he was 1959 01:46:53,760 --> 01:46:56,400 Speaker 4: talking about a police force that would kind of, you know, 1960 01:46:56,560 --> 01:47:00,840 Speaker 4: be be separate and kind of you know, keep order 1961 01:47:01,000 --> 01:47:05,160 Speaker 4: in Gaza, but a heavy emphasis on demilitarization. And I 1962 01:47:05,200 --> 01:47:08,120 Speaker 4: think the term you used was an honest civilian police 1963 01:47:08,160 --> 01:47:11,000 Speaker 4: force to create, you know, a safe condition for the 1964 01:47:11,040 --> 01:47:14,000 Speaker 4: people in Gaza. So I know that's where we put 1965 01:47:14,000 --> 01:47:17,840 Speaker 4: a heavy emphasis on. So again, we'll see and this 1966 01:47:18,000 --> 01:47:20,720 Speaker 4: is all very you know, as this piece still, I 1967 01:47:20,760 --> 01:47:23,760 Speaker 4: think they're on step six or seven somewhere in yeah, 1968 01:47:24,320 --> 01:47:28,519 Speaker 4: or seven or eight. So yeah, this as this goes on, 1969 01:47:28,600 --> 01:47:31,160 Speaker 4: I mean, so far, so good, right, But you know, 1970 01:47:31,560 --> 01:47:33,599 Speaker 4: we'll see how things continue to work out. 1971 01:47:33,600 --> 01:47:35,800 Speaker 1: Well, Nick, And I hate to be honest with you. 1972 01:47:35,880 --> 01:47:41,800 Speaker 1: I I want to be very optimistic, but I'm old 1973 01:47:41,880 --> 01:47:45,800 Speaker 1: enough to remember. You know, everyone in every presidential administration 1974 01:47:46,000 --> 01:47:48,280 Speaker 1: since I've been born has been trying to negotiate peace 1975 01:47:48,280 --> 01:47:50,840 Speaker 1: in the Middle East. It doesn't often and hardly ever, 1976 01:47:50,920 --> 01:47:53,479 Speaker 1: if ever works out. I know with the Abraham Korns, 1977 01:47:53,520 --> 01:47:56,240 Speaker 1: Donald Trump made some really great inroads in getting folks 1978 01:47:56,280 --> 01:47:59,080 Speaker 1: to play nicely together for their own economic benefit. I mean, 1979 01:47:59,080 --> 01:47:59,920 Speaker 1: who can argue with that. 1980 01:48:00,040 --> 01:48:00,120 Speaker 12: Ye. 1981 01:48:00,240 --> 01:48:01,800 Speaker 1: Hey, if we quit fighting and spending all of our 1982 01:48:01,800 --> 01:48:04,840 Speaker 1: money on guns and military, we might have booming economies. 1983 01:48:04,880 --> 01:48:07,880 Speaker 1: There's an idea. But how do you feel about this 1984 01:48:07,960 --> 01:48:10,080 Speaker 1: going forward? The devil's always in the details, as I've 1985 01:48:10,080 --> 01:48:12,840 Speaker 1: said too many times, But you got six of the 1986 01:48:12,880 --> 01:48:17,400 Speaker 1: steps toward twenty being accomplished, and there's some large stumbling blocks, 1987 01:48:17,479 --> 01:48:21,280 Speaker 1: notably disarmament. And then how much of the of the 1988 01:48:21,280 --> 01:48:24,960 Speaker 1: gods of territories is Israel going to control if any 1989 01:48:25,040 --> 01:48:27,679 Speaker 1: and who's going to govern lord knows they need better 1990 01:48:27,720 --> 01:48:31,160 Speaker 1: government than Hamas. So what about those items? 1991 01:48:31,400 --> 01:48:35,960 Speaker 4: Nick, Yeah, absolutely, I think I think one thing that 1992 01:48:36,360 --> 01:48:38,920 Speaker 4: is good that you know, they have going for them here. 1993 01:48:38,920 --> 01:48:41,000 Speaker 4: Everybody in the steel has going for them as the 1994 01:48:41,040 --> 01:48:44,440 Speaker 4: presence of President Trump. And I think, you know, Secretary 1995 01:48:44,479 --> 01:48:48,639 Speaker 4: of State Marco Rubio down to Special Envoy Steve Witcoff, right, 1996 01:48:49,080 --> 01:48:51,760 Speaker 4: And I think as they go along through this, if 1997 01:48:51,760 --> 01:48:54,280 Speaker 4: there are any hiccups, I think, you know, these are 1998 01:48:54,400 --> 01:48:57,840 Speaker 4: very competent people, and I think they've shown that they can, 1999 01:48:58,479 --> 01:49:02,040 Speaker 4: you know, bring different people to the table kind of 2000 01:49:02,040 --> 01:49:05,280 Speaker 4: work things out between them, whether it be the character, 2001 01:49:05,360 --> 01:49:09,599 Speaker 4: the stick right, And I think that that's a that's 2002 01:49:09,600 --> 01:49:11,960 Speaker 4: a that's a critical thing here, and that's something we 2003 01:49:12,040 --> 01:49:14,719 Speaker 4: certainly didn't see in the last administration. That couldn't even 2004 01:49:15,080 --> 01:49:17,760 Speaker 4: you know, get the ball rolling any anywhere close to 2005 01:49:17,840 --> 01:49:21,920 Speaker 4: a potential piece deal here. And uh so I think, 2006 01:49:22,560 --> 01:49:25,960 Speaker 4: you know, yeah, we'll we'll see how it all shakes 2007 01:49:25,960 --> 01:49:29,720 Speaker 4: out again. Everything's you know, very tensitive here, but I 2008 01:49:30,400 --> 01:49:31,160 Speaker 4: think so far. 2009 01:49:31,120 --> 01:49:31,639 Speaker 3: So good. 2010 01:49:31,680 --> 01:49:35,799 Speaker 4: And uh, I think that was such a strong showing 2011 01:49:35,920 --> 01:49:39,479 Speaker 4: yesterday too in the region to have all those different 2012 01:49:39,560 --> 01:49:43,080 Speaker 4: leaders kind of kind of come together, you know, I 2013 01:49:43,080 --> 01:49:46,840 Speaker 4: think it's I think it's a very promising sign and 2014 01:49:46,920 --> 01:49:50,639 Speaker 4: a positive one. So that's that's that's what I can 2015 01:49:50,640 --> 01:49:51,559 Speaker 4: share that well. 2016 01:49:51,880 --> 01:49:55,240 Speaker 1: And I suppose that there was a lot of maybe 2017 01:49:55,280 --> 01:49:57,120 Speaker 1: i'll use the word pressure, whether or not was pressure 2018 01:49:57,160 --> 01:49:59,160 Speaker 1: or not to get all of those world leaders to 2019 01:49:59,240 --> 01:50:03,280 Speaker 1: appear this sort of as a massive showing of force 2020 01:50:03,439 --> 01:50:07,880 Speaker 1: against Hamas. The rest of the world is on one 2021 01:50:07,920 --> 01:50:09,880 Speaker 1: side of the argument, you're on the other. I mean, 2022 01:50:09,880 --> 01:50:12,200 Speaker 1: you're in a losing position Hamas. I think that was 2023 01:50:12,520 --> 01:50:14,200 Speaker 1: on full display yesterday. 2024 01:50:15,920 --> 01:50:19,519 Speaker 4: Absolutely you had countries represented from from every single continent. 2025 01:50:19,680 --> 01:50:23,360 Speaker 4: I think even the President of Paraguay was there yesterday. 2026 01:50:23,600 --> 01:50:30,280 Speaker 7: From the all. 2027 01:50:27,160 --> 01:50:29,559 Speaker 4: Important but I think that just goes to show what 2028 01:50:29,600 --> 01:50:33,640 Speaker 4: a what a broad coalition of countries were present yesterday. 2029 01:50:33,760 --> 01:50:37,240 Speaker 4: And then you know, you had all these not just Trump, right, 2030 01:50:37,240 --> 01:50:39,640 Speaker 4: but you had Western leaders from uh, you know, I 2031 01:50:39,640 --> 01:50:44,880 Speaker 4: think Native Secretary General Secretary Mark Mark Rudy. You had 2032 01:50:45,120 --> 01:50:49,360 Speaker 4: Italian Prime Minister Georgia Maloney, uh uh, Keir Starmer, the 2033 01:50:49,360 --> 01:50:53,719 Speaker 4: British Prime Minister Emmanuel McCrone from France, Mark Carney from Canada. 2034 01:50:54,080 --> 01:50:56,879 Speaker 4: So really, you know, you have the Western world involved. 2035 01:50:57,200 --> 01:50:59,960 Speaker 4: You had all these countries from Asia as well. 2036 01:51:00,600 --> 01:51:01,160 Speaker 3: I believe you. 2037 01:51:01,200 --> 01:51:05,320 Speaker 4: Had a Japan over there, and then even countries that 2038 01:51:05,360 --> 01:51:07,920 Speaker 4: Trump has already broken peace deals with, right so our 2039 01:51:08,000 --> 01:51:12,320 Speaker 4: media Azerbaijan, they were there together. Trump just ended, you know, 2040 01:51:12,360 --> 01:51:16,479 Speaker 4: I believe a thirty plus a or something war between 2041 01:51:16,720 --> 01:51:19,320 Speaker 4: those two countries a few months ago, one of you know, 2042 01:51:19,479 --> 01:51:24,960 Speaker 4: seven deals he's made that have held up between countries, 2043 01:51:25,000 --> 01:51:29,400 Speaker 4: but leading up to this right between you know, bringing 2044 01:51:29,439 --> 01:51:31,799 Speaker 4: him as to the table and getting them to accept 2045 01:51:31,800 --> 01:51:32,200 Speaker 4: this deal. 2046 01:51:32,280 --> 01:51:34,799 Speaker 3: So you know, he's got eight so far. 2047 01:51:34,800 --> 01:51:38,040 Speaker 4: Under his belt since returning to office in January, kind 2048 01:51:38,040 --> 01:51:40,680 Speaker 4: of averaging one a month here, and I think, you know, 2049 01:51:40,760 --> 01:51:43,240 Speaker 4: this is a granddaddy of them all so far. 2050 01:51:43,640 --> 01:51:46,240 Speaker 1: It is truly remarkable, Nick, As you run through that, 2051 01:51:46,600 --> 01:51:51,200 Speaker 1: it's just absolutely amazing in such a short period of time. 2052 01:51:51,920 --> 01:51:54,880 Speaker 1: You know, I can be a critic of Donald Trump 2053 01:51:54,920 --> 01:51:57,160 Speaker 1: from time to time, and everybody is worthy of some 2054 01:51:57,200 --> 01:52:00,599 Speaker 1: measure of criticism. No one walks on water. But I mean, 2055 01:52:01,080 --> 01:52:03,760 Speaker 1: just since January of this year, how much he's been 2056 01:52:03,800 --> 01:52:07,559 Speaker 1: able to accomplish. I mean, I don't know. I just 2057 01:52:07,600 --> 01:52:09,720 Speaker 1: I'm amazed at what this, what Donald Trump has been 2058 01:52:09,760 --> 01:52:11,800 Speaker 1: able to do. And the other component of this, which 2059 01:52:11,920 --> 01:52:14,679 Speaker 1: is allowed for this peace process to move forward, Egypt 2060 01:52:14,720 --> 01:52:16,640 Speaker 1: finally opened its border up so we can have the 2061 01:52:16,680 --> 01:52:19,040 Speaker 1: flow of humanity going back and forth into the region. 2062 01:52:19,120 --> 01:52:21,080 Speaker 1: That that was a huge hurdle. 2063 01:52:22,680 --> 01:52:25,560 Speaker 4: Absolutely, And I think that that goes to show too 2064 01:52:25,320 --> 01:52:29,320 Speaker 4: how President Trump's relationship with SISI over there is just 2065 01:52:30,280 --> 01:52:33,720 Speaker 4: very different from how Obama and Biden kind of alienated 2066 01:52:34,040 --> 01:52:37,720 Speaker 4: Egypt does an ally. And so you know, again, I 2067 01:52:37,720 --> 01:52:40,479 Speaker 4: think it goes to show Trump Trump being the ultimate 2068 01:52:40,600 --> 01:52:44,400 Speaker 4: deal maker and pragmatists. He works with what he has, right, 2069 01:52:44,479 --> 01:52:47,720 Speaker 4: what do you give him? And you know, he's very 2070 01:52:47,720 --> 01:52:52,000 Speaker 4: good at understanding what's going to motivate people and what won't. 2071 01:52:52,040 --> 01:52:54,960 Speaker 4: And I we've literally seen this from him for the 2072 01:52:55,000 --> 01:52:57,840 Speaker 4: past what fifty years, going back to his part his 2073 01:52:57,960 --> 01:53:00,320 Speaker 4: private sector days, you know, when he was kind of 2074 01:53:00,320 --> 01:53:05,559 Speaker 4: repainting the skyline there in New York City. So for me, it's, uh, 2075 01:53:05,720 --> 01:53:10,839 Speaker 4: it's it's truly remarkable stuff. And uh yeah, it's it's 2076 01:53:10,880 --> 01:53:11,679 Speaker 4: it's quite something. 2077 01:53:12,000 --> 01:53:13,840 Speaker 1: Well, I'll tell you what I think to go. 2078 01:53:15,479 --> 01:53:18,439 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, and I think too, you know, I just 2079 01:53:18,840 --> 01:53:21,360 Speaker 4: people forget to Like two months ago he just like 2080 01:53:21,760 --> 01:53:27,000 Speaker 4: brokeer this amazing or rather historic trade deal between the 2081 01:53:27,040 --> 01:53:30,920 Speaker 4: European Union and in the United States. I think, uh, 2082 01:53:31,000 --> 01:53:35,080 Speaker 4: you know, just just whether it be deadlines. He hit 2083 01:53:35,200 --> 01:53:39,519 Speaker 4: himas with this this pretty pretty uh serious statement on 2084 01:53:39,600 --> 01:53:42,479 Speaker 4: October thirties, like he said, look, this is the last 2085 01:53:42,560 --> 01:53:45,720 Speaker 4: chance for a master agree or quote all hell like 2086 01:53:45,760 --> 01:53:48,080 Speaker 4: no one has ever seen will break out against them, right, 2087 01:53:48,720 --> 01:53:50,960 Speaker 4: and you know, within a couple hours you get them 2088 01:53:51,080 --> 01:53:53,679 Speaker 4: agreeing to come to the table. And and we've seen 2089 01:53:53,760 --> 01:53:56,160 Speaker 4: just Trump use the deadline over and over and over again, 2090 01:53:56,200 --> 01:53:58,800 Speaker 4: whether it be with tariffs, whether it be with his 2091 01:53:58,920 --> 01:54:03,840 Speaker 4: legislative agenda, one big beautiful bill. He's very good at 2092 01:54:03,840 --> 01:54:07,320 Speaker 4: this and bringing different sides together and getting them to 2093 01:54:07,400 --> 01:54:07,800 Speaker 4: agree to that. 2094 01:54:08,120 --> 01:54:11,640 Speaker 1: Well, Nick, because he follows through, unlike Barack Obama, who 2095 01:54:11,680 --> 01:54:14,200 Speaker 1: drew red lines left and right, never did bother do 2096 01:54:14,280 --> 01:54:16,840 Speaker 1: anything after someone crossed the red lines, almost in open 2097 01:54:16,880 --> 01:54:19,439 Speaker 1: defiance of Barack Obama, and to a certain degree, to 2098 01:54:19,479 --> 01:54:21,920 Speaker 1: the extent Joe Biden did anything. No one paid any 2099 01:54:21,920 --> 01:54:23,720 Speaker 1: attention to what he was doing. I mean, if you 2100 01:54:23,720 --> 01:54:26,120 Speaker 1: don't listen to Trump, he tells you exactly what he's 2101 01:54:26,120 --> 01:54:28,519 Speaker 1: gonna do and then pull then delivers on it. So yeah, 2102 01:54:28,560 --> 01:54:30,759 Speaker 1: I think that all hell's going to break. Luke's comment 2103 01:54:31,240 --> 01:54:34,120 Speaker 1: in the wake of an aftermath of him bombing the 2104 01:54:34,160 --> 01:54:37,839 Speaker 1: hell out of Iran with those bunker busters, with Israel 2105 01:54:37,960 --> 01:54:42,320 Speaker 1: bombing Cutter, with whom they have no adversarial relationship. If 2106 01:54:42,360 --> 01:54:44,480 Speaker 1: you got Hamas in your house, We're going to come 2107 01:54:44,520 --> 01:54:47,040 Speaker 1: after your house. I mean, these are all realities that 2108 01:54:47,080 --> 01:54:51,520 Speaker 1: everybody was facing. So yes, a strong president who delivers 2109 01:54:51,600 --> 01:54:54,760 Speaker 1: on his red lines needs to be taken seriously. Let 2110 01:54:54,760 --> 01:54:58,120 Speaker 1: me ask you this along those lines, Nick, what does 2111 01:54:58,200 --> 01:55:00,560 Speaker 1: Iran make of this? If you can, yes, and I 2112 01:55:00,640 --> 01:55:02,640 Speaker 1: want to put you on the spot. But Iran's got 2113 01:55:02,680 --> 01:55:05,200 Speaker 1: to be I think a little bit uh concerned about 2114 01:55:05,200 --> 01:55:06,520 Speaker 1: these developments. 2115 01:55:07,680 --> 01:55:10,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you know this isn't good for Iran. 2116 01:55:10,840 --> 01:55:13,760 Speaker 4: Yesterday and they're dealing with these massive sanctions. You know, 2117 01:55:13,880 --> 01:55:16,960 Speaker 4: Trump just kind of set there or you know, made 2118 01:55:16,960 --> 01:55:20,280 Speaker 4: their neutralized their nuclear program a few months ago with 2119 01:55:20,400 --> 01:55:23,560 Speaker 4: those strikes on Foord and a tons Esbaham like you 2120 01:55:23,560 --> 01:55:25,320 Speaker 4: were like you were saying, and that you know, sends 2121 01:55:25,320 --> 01:55:28,200 Speaker 4: a message to everybody else too, that's the side thing. 2122 01:55:28,240 --> 01:55:31,600 Speaker 4: But yeah, I think, uh, you know this that you 2123 01:55:31,640 --> 01:55:35,240 Speaker 4: have all these countries in the region and you know, 2124 01:55:35,560 --> 01:55:40,080 Speaker 4: kind of pushing towards a stabilized region, pushing towards peace. 2125 01:55:40,960 --> 01:55:44,200 Speaker 4: And you know when we see this, this happened with 2126 01:55:44,240 --> 01:55:47,840 Speaker 4: Hamas yesterday. I mean if if I think that goes 2127 01:55:47,880 --> 01:55:50,959 Speaker 4: to show that, you know, Hamas is a cell essentially 2128 01:55:51,080 --> 01:55:54,520 Speaker 4: right of Iran. They get funding from there, they traditionally did, 2129 01:55:55,040 --> 01:55:57,640 Speaker 4: so I think that goes to show, you know, the 2130 01:55:57,680 --> 01:56:01,800 Speaker 4: weakness of Iran. Know, the President Trump said yesterday he 2131 01:56:02,000 --> 01:56:04,480 Speaker 4: thinks Iran what wants to make a deal, wants to 2132 01:56:04,920 --> 01:56:07,800 Speaker 4: come along and make a deal eventually. So he was 2133 01:56:07,880 --> 01:56:10,480 Speaker 4: kind of said, look, uh, you know, I I hope 2134 01:56:10,480 --> 01:56:13,240 Speaker 4: to talk to them and eventually right when they want 2135 01:56:13,240 --> 01:56:14,760 Speaker 4: to come to the table. And he said he wants 2136 01:56:14,800 --> 01:56:16,960 Speaker 4: to take the sanctions off and he wants to see 2137 01:56:17,320 --> 01:56:21,480 Speaker 4: Iran prosper, also noting too, like they can't survive with 2138 01:56:21,480 --> 01:56:28,160 Speaker 4: with these massive sanctions they're facing. So basically seriously, you know, 2139 01:56:28,360 --> 01:56:31,880 Speaker 4: using using the stick, they're pretty heavy also offering the 2140 01:56:31,960 --> 01:56:35,120 Speaker 4: carrot in terms of, you know, wanting to bring them 2141 01:56:35,120 --> 01:56:42,560 Speaker 4: middle wanting to bring them into you know, uh uh, you. 2142 01:56:42,520 --> 01:56:44,720 Speaker 1: Know, a peaceful coalition. 2143 01:56:45,800 --> 01:56:46,919 Speaker 9: Exactly, exactly. 2144 01:56:46,960 --> 01:56:51,400 Speaker 4: You've got the words for me. But President Trump said 2145 01:56:51,440 --> 01:56:56,280 Speaker 4: yesterday too, I think, you know, the Middle East incredible destiny, 2146 01:56:56,480 --> 01:56:59,920 Speaker 4: and he said is a safe and prosperous, beautiful crossroad 2147 01:57:00,080 --> 01:57:04,080 Speaker 4: of culture and commerce, faith in humanity, and a geographic center. 2148 01:57:04,360 --> 01:57:06,800 Speaker 4: He also said it could be the geographic center of 2149 01:57:06,840 --> 01:57:10,360 Speaker 4: the world. So I think that goes to show his vision. 2150 01:57:10,400 --> 01:57:13,160 Speaker 4: And that's that's also you know, I ran could go 2151 01:57:13,280 --> 01:57:15,600 Speaker 4: down that path. I think if if they made an 2152 01:57:15,680 --> 01:57:18,320 Speaker 4: honest and earnest effort and showed President Trump that they 2153 01:57:18,360 --> 01:57:22,360 Speaker 4: wanted to, then again, if they don't want to, you know, 2154 01:57:22,480 --> 01:57:27,400 Speaker 4: you can see President trumpell. You know, we'll do what 2155 01:57:27,440 --> 01:57:28,720 Speaker 4: he feels he needs to do. 2156 01:57:28,760 --> 01:57:32,360 Speaker 1: Right clearly well, and you know, honestly, if you step 2157 01:57:32,440 --> 01:57:35,560 Speaker 1: back from whatever is driving and motivating them, and I would, 2158 01:57:35,600 --> 01:57:38,760 Speaker 1: I would say, it's obviously it's hatred toward Israel, it's 2159 01:57:38,840 --> 01:57:42,000 Speaker 1: religious fundamentalism. There is the core of their problems. If 2160 01:57:42,040 --> 01:57:45,080 Speaker 1: they just walked away from that ideology and said all right, 2161 01:57:45,080 --> 01:57:46,839 Speaker 1: we're going to be Muslims. We're going to be Islamic, 2162 01:57:46,880 --> 01:57:48,680 Speaker 1: We're going to be you know, enjoy our own faith. 2163 01:57:48,680 --> 01:57:51,280 Speaker 1: But you know what, it's not worth fighting with our 2164 01:57:51,320 --> 01:57:54,360 Speaker 1: next door neighbor. It's costing us. It's our economy's ruin. 2165 01:57:54,840 --> 01:57:57,600 Speaker 1: We have nothing to show for all this war for 2166 01:57:57,680 --> 01:58:00,520 Speaker 1: decades and decades, if not centuries. If we just put 2167 01:58:00,560 --> 01:58:03,400 Speaker 1: down our war weapons machine and just start talking about 2168 01:58:03,600 --> 01:58:07,280 Speaker 1: commerce in industry, we're going to have a healthy, prosperous 2169 01:58:07,320 --> 01:58:09,840 Speaker 1: country and we can just abide our own religion, within 2170 01:58:09,880 --> 01:58:12,200 Speaker 1: our own within the four corners of our own country. 2171 01:58:12,520 --> 01:58:13,720 Speaker 1: Problem solved. 2172 01:58:15,520 --> 01:58:19,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that's that's literally the easiest route for 2173 01:58:19,320 --> 01:58:24,160 Speaker 4: them to take, right Like, you know, but obviously, you know, 2174 01:58:24,200 --> 01:58:28,120 Speaker 4: there's there's all sorts of years of fundamentalism that have 2175 01:58:28,200 --> 01:58:31,200 Speaker 4: taken place, all sorts of youths that were raised under 2176 01:58:31,240 --> 01:58:36,200 Speaker 4: this too. So again, you know, it's it's it's you know, 2177 01:58:36,240 --> 01:58:38,280 Speaker 4: it's kind of hard to read the tea leaves, but 2178 01:58:38,600 --> 01:58:44,480 Speaker 4: it's it looks peace looks promising right now, especially after yesterday, 2179 01:58:44,560 --> 01:58:48,320 Speaker 4: especially that show of unity. You know, you have again 2180 01:58:48,360 --> 01:58:52,000 Speaker 4: from around the globe, every single continent essentially represent maybe 2181 01:58:52,040 --> 01:58:57,160 Speaker 4: not Australia, right, But uh yeah, I think it shows 2182 01:58:57,160 --> 01:59:00,000 Speaker 4: a show of unity and the show where everybody wants 2183 01:59:00,120 --> 01:59:02,400 Speaker 4: this to go and everybody's kind of on the same 2184 01:59:02,480 --> 01:59:04,920 Speaker 4: page here. And I think the key is those other 2185 01:59:05,000 --> 01:59:09,040 Speaker 4: Arab countries in the region that are you know, brought 2186 01:59:09,080 --> 01:59:13,360 Speaker 4: into this prosperous coalition already as you said, and you know, 2187 01:59:13,560 --> 01:59:16,720 Speaker 4: want to uphold that and even broad in it, expand it. 2188 01:59:17,080 --> 01:59:20,160 Speaker 4: And look, I think if you can bring peace to 2189 01:59:20,240 --> 01:59:23,720 Speaker 4: the region too, Like, imagine what this does for a 2190 01:59:23,760 --> 01:59:27,400 Speaker 4: potential trade route maybe right again, or what could mean 2191 01:59:27,480 --> 01:59:30,480 Speaker 4: for that. I know much was made in the first 2192 01:59:30,520 --> 01:59:33,600 Speaker 4: term about a potential iMac corridor, right, and that run 2193 01:59:33,680 --> 01:59:36,080 Speaker 4: from India through the Middle East, through Europe and the 2194 01:59:36,160 --> 01:59:39,800 Speaker 4: United States. So you know, peace in the Middle East 2195 01:59:39,840 --> 01:59:43,000 Speaker 4: would be massive for that. And I'm sure China's a 2196 01:59:43,040 --> 01:59:48,640 Speaker 4: little worried about about what happened yesterday too, So pretty 2197 01:59:48,640 --> 01:59:49,440 Speaker 4: interesting stuff. 2198 01:59:50,240 --> 01:59:53,640 Speaker 1: Hey, doors wide open for peace. Everyone prospers with peace, 2199 01:59:54,120 --> 01:59:57,000 Speaker 1: read about it every single day.

Good to see 2215 02:00:36,840 --> 02:00:39,760 Speaker 1: you again. I get to see it good here. It's 2216 02:00:39,800 --> 02:00:43,360 Speaker 1: a pleasure. Well, the whole world was on full display yesterday. 2217 02:00:43,400 --> 02:00:46,040 Speaker 1: I had representatives from I think every country or every 2218 02:00:46,040 --> 02:00:49,560 Speaker 1: continent rather except Australia showing up for the Well the 2219 02:00:49,600 --> 02:00:52,920 Speaker 1: initial signing of what looks like, dare I even say 2220 02:00:52,920 --> 02:00:56,000 Speaker 1: the words out loud, peace in the Middle East, at 2221 02:00:56,080 --> 02:01:00,320 Speaker 1: least between Israel and Hamas. What an amazing development. Your 2222 02:01:00,360 --> 02:01:04,839 Speaker 1: reaction on this. The stars clearly aligned for a variety 2223 02:01:04,880 --> 02:01:07,560 Speaker 1: of different reasons which allowed this to come together. But 2224 02:01:08,040 --> 02:01:11,080 Speaker 1: I think the idea that you've got what I will 2225 02:01:11,160 --> 02:01:15,160 Speaker 1: characterize as the world the leaders from the world on 2226 02:01:15,160 --> 02:01:19,400 Speaker 1: one side, and you've got Hamas obviously isolated from a 2227 02:01:19,440 --> 02:01:21,880 Speaker 1: global perception they were backed into a corner. 2228 02:01:23,440 --> 02:01:26,080 Speaker 13: Well, they were in your right that there were many, 2229 02:01:26,120 --> 02:01:30,960 Speaker 13: many reasons why this came together. I would say at 2230 02:01:31,000 --> 02:01:33,640 Speaker 13: the outset that I would not go as far as 2231 02:01:33,680 --> 02:01:35,440 Speaker 13: to say peace. I would say that the end of 2232 02:01:35,480 --> 02:01:38,480 Speaker 13: the hostilities have happened, and there is a shot at peace. 2233 02:01:38,960 --> 02:01:41,480 Speaker 13: But even within the terms that are set out here, 2234 02:01:41,480 --> 02:01:44,280 Speaker 13: there is a two phased operation. Phase one was basically 2235 02:01:44,760 --> 02:01:47,920 Speaker 13: a ceasefire and a return of the hostages from both sides, 2236 02:01:48,240 --> 02:01:49,360 Speaker 13: which has taken place. 2237 02:01:49,400 --> 02:01:51,400 Speaker 17: But Phase two hasn't even been. 2238 02:01:51,240 --> 02:01:54,280 Speaker 13: Negotiated yet, and there's still a lot of problems to 2239 02:01:54,280 --> 02:01:54,760 Speaker 13: go with that. 2240 02:01:55,040 --> 02:01:57,520 Speaker 17: So I don't want to get too optimistic, but I am. 2241 02:01:57,440 --> 02:02:01,360 Speaker 13: Incredibly grateful and happy that this is hostilities has happened, 2242 02:02:01,360 --> 02:02:03,760 Speaker 13: because I've always said, you've got to get the killing 2243 02:02:03,800 --> 02:02:06,040 Speaker 13: of the innocent people stopped first to even have a 2244 02:02:06,120 --> 02:02:08,440 Speaker 13: shot at an enduring peace, and it's going to be 2245 02:02:08,480 --> 02:02:12,000 Speaker 13: really hard, but Listen, we got to give props to 2246 02:02:12,120 --> 02:02:15,120 Speaker 13: President Trump because he put It's not just that Hamas 2247 02:02:15,200 --> 02:02:18,120 Speaker 13: was isolated, they've been oscillated. It's also that President Trump 2248 02:02:18,160 --> 02:02:20,800 Speaker 13: was willing to put pressure in both directions on Hamas 2249 02:02:21,040 --> 02:02:23,280 Speaker 13: and on the Israeli side. Because this you'd certainly know, 2250 02:02:23,320 --> 02:02:25,560 Speaker 13: there's many on the Israeli side that did not want 2251 02:02:25,600 --> 02:02:26,240 Speaker 13: a cease fire. 2252 02:02:26,480 --> 02:02:28,520 Speaker 17: They only wanted a military victory. 2253 02:02:28,600 --> 02:02:31,440 Speaker 13: So everybody had to give a little something to get here, 2254 02:02:31,480 --> 02:02:34,040 Speaker 13: and President Trump put the pressure wherever it needed, and 2255 02:02:34,080 --> 02:02:36,440 Speaker 13: then he got the support from all those countries across 2256 02:02:36,480 --> 02:02:39,480 Speaker 13: the world, like you mentioned, So he gets full props 2257 02:02:39,480 --> 02:02:41,880 Speaker 13: for that and our great hope that this. 2258 02:02:41,800 --> 02:02:43,680 Speaker 17: Does translate into an enduring peace. 2259 02:02:43,880 --> 02:02:47,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, and no one is more hesitant to declare peace 2260 02:02:47,120 --> 02:02:49,680 Speaker 1: in the Middle East than me, Sir. I've been down 2261 02:02:49,720 --> 02:02:52,800 Speaker 1: this before, the road before, only to be met with disappointment. 2262 02:02:52,880 --> 02:02:55,360 Speaker 1: So yeah, as I've repeatedly said on the show, here, 2263 02:02:55,400 --> 02:02:58,560 Speaker 1: devil's in the details. One of those devils though, talking 2264 02:02:58,560 --> 02:03:01,400 Speaker 1: about you know, getting the players negotiate getting the border 2265 02:03:01,440 --> 02:03:03,880 Speaker 1: with Egypt open to allow the back and forth flow 2266 02:03:03,880 --> 02:03:06,960 Speaker 1: of humanity and humanitarian relief, and that was a big 2267 02:03:07,000 --> 02:03:08,840 Speaker 1: step as well. 2268 02:03:09,080 --> 02:03:09,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was. 2269 02:03:09,800 --> 02:03:11,720 Speaker 13: And then in fact this I think that they're getting 2270 02:03:11,760 --> 02:03:16,360 Speaker 13: nearly all the old fences and all the entrances opened 2271 02:03:16,440 --> 02:03:19,080 Speaker 13: up so that you can get up to four hundred 2272 02:03:19,120 --> 02:03:22,480 Speaker 13: trucks per day for now ramping up to six hundred. 2273 02:03:22,520 --> 02:03:23,040 Speaker 17: That's to plan. 2274 02:03:23,120 --> 02:03:25,560 Speaker 13: Anyway, we'll see if that happens, but that is a 2275 02:03:25,840 --> 02:03:29,120 Speaker 13: massive increase over what it has been. And also there 2276 02:03:29,160 --> 02:03:32,560 Speaker 13: were only four feeding spots for the entire Gosze strip. 2277 02:03:32,640 --> 02:03:34,680 Speaker 13: Almost all of the three of the four were in 2278 02:03:34,720 --> 02:03:36,800 Speaker 13: the far south. Now then they're going to spread that 2279 02:03:36,880 --> 02:03:40,720 Speaker 13: back out. See I guess the initial withdrawal line, the 2280 02:03:40,720 --> 02:03:43,080 Speaker 13: so called yellow line perhaps you heard about that was 2281 02:03:43,520 --> 02:03:45,840 Speaker 13: that will still leave Israel and control of about fifty 2282 02:03:45,840 --> 02:03:49,160 Speaker 13: eight percent of the strip. So in that remaining forty 2283 02:03:49,160 --> 02:03:52,560 Speaker 13: two percent, now more vehicles with food is going in 2284 02:03:53,200 --> 02:03:56,280 Speaker 13: to start alleviating and ending the suffering that was going 2285 02:03:56,320 --> 02:03:59,920 Speaker 13: on with the food shortages. So that's another good, good 2286 02:04:00,040 --> 02:04:02,360 Speaker 13: start on there. But like I say, there's still a 2287 02:04:02,440 --> 02:04:04,800 Speaker 13: lot of challenges to face even in the near term. 2288 02:04:05,160 --> 02:04:08,920 Speaker 1: Now and you're better, you're obviously more knowledgeable and skilled 2289 02:04:09,200 --> 02:04:13,800 Speaker 1: at understanding what's going on. But within Hamas, they apparently 2290 02:04:13,840 --> 02:04:17,520 Speaker 1: are fighting amongst themselves inside Gaza. What I perceive is 2291 02:04:17,520 --> 02:04:20,240 Speaker 1: something along the lines of the movie The Life of 2292 02:04:20,280 --> 02:04:22,760 Speaker 1: Brian from Monty Python. You get the Judean People's Front, 2293 02:04:22,800 --> 02:04:24,320 Speaker 1: you get the People's Front of Jidea, you got the 2294 02:04:24,360 --> 02:04:27,560 Speaker 1: campaign for Free Galley, and they're all splitter organizations. All 2295 02:04:27,600 --> 02:04:30,720 Speaker 1: of them collectively hate the Romans, and this part case, 2296 02:04:30,760 --> 02:04:33,360 Speaker 1: all of them collectively hate the Israelis. But they don't 2297 02:04:33,400 --> 02:04:36,640 Speaker 1: sound like they're as coordinated as I think I was 2298 02:04:36,720 --> 02:04:38,320 Speaker 1: led to believe, or maybe the world was led to 2299 02:04:38,320 --> 02:04:42,680 Speaker 1: believe under one hamas tight umbrella. That's why, at least 2300 02:04:42,720 --> 02:04:44,520 Speaker 1: I understand. This is where you are to correct me 2301 02:04:44,520 --> 02:04:47,720 Speaker 1: when I'm wrong. Why they can't identify or locate some 2302 02:04:47,800 --> 02:04:50,520 Speaker 1: of these dead hostages. They don't quite know where they 2303 02:04:50,560 --> 02:04:54,440 Speaker 1: are because they're being held by various splitter organizations, or 2304 02:04:54,480 --> 02:04:55,000 Speaker 1: am I wrong? 2305 02:04:55,680 --> 02:04:58,520 Speaker 13: Well, yeah, I'll address both of those issues. First of all, 2306 02:04:58,680 --> 02:05:01,000 Speaker 13: with the issue with the hostage part of the problem. 2307 02:05:01,040 --> 02:05:04,840 Speaker 13: In fact, the main problem with identifying the deceased hossages 2308 02:05:05,200 --> 02:05:08,720 Speaker 13: is that many of them were buried or I guess 2309 02:05:08,760 --> 02:05:11,400 Speaker 13: just laid in some of the areas where subsequent Israeli 2310 02:05:11,400 --> 02:05:14,440 Speaker 13: airstrikes level the buildings and the whole thing got buried, 2311 02:05:14,640 --> 02:05:17,000 Speaker 13: so they don't even know where they are or can't 2312 02:05:17,040 --> 02:05:18,760 Speaker 13: reach them, and so that's gonna take a lot of time. 2313 02:05:18,800 --> 02:05:21,360 Speaker 13: And you've seen all those pictures of the whole Gaza 2314 02:05:21,400 --> 02:05:24,440 Speaker 13: strip basically being rubbled, so it's understandable that that's going 2315 02:05:24,480 --> 02:05:27,240 Speaker 13: to be incredibly difficult as far as that goes. But 2316 02:05:27,320 --> 02:05:30,320 Speaker 13: the second issue there, I think there's some analysis that 2317 02:05:31,720 --> 02:05:37,000 Speaker 13: there have been significant firefights between Palestinians and Hamas of late, 2318 02:05:37,320 --> 02:05:40,000 Speaker 13: because listen, many times I think on your show, I've 2319 02:05:41,000 --> 02:05:43,480 Speaker 13: had issue with the Israeli government of well things they do. 2320 02:05:43,520 --> 02:05:45,280 Speaker 13: They're the ones that are dropping bombs, et cetera. 2321 02:05:45,880 --> 02:05:47,480 Speaker 17: But man, you can't go much. 2322 02:05:47,400 --> 02:05:50,240 Speaker 13: Farther without saying that Hamas has been the absolute most 2323 02:05:50,280 --> 02:05:54,080 Speaker 13: catastrophic thing to happen to the Palestinian people since this 2324 02:05:54,120 --> 02:05:56,520 Speaker 13: thing began, because whatever they thought they were going to 2325 02:05:56,520 --> 02:05:59,640 Speaker 13: accomplish on ten seven two twenty twenty three, the end 2326 02:05:59,680 --> 02:06:03,520 Speaker 13: result has been mass destruction of the entire place and 2327 02:06:03,880 --> 02:06:06,920 Speaker 13: the suffering of the Palestinian people. They're tired of that, 2328 02:06:07,200 --> 02:06:09,040 Speaker 13: they're tired of the as you said, they're tired of 2329 02:06:09,080 --> 02:06:11,520 Speaker 13: the Israeli side who's been putting the bombs, but they're 2330 02:06:11,760 --> 02:06:13,880 Speaker 13: as tired and maybe more so on the guys that 2331 02:06:14,320 --> 02:06:15,240 Speaker 13: kept this going. 2332 02:06:15,480 --> 02:06:17,000 Speaker 17: So they want them to get out. 2333 02:06:17,200 --> 02:06:19,840 Speaker 13: They want them to leave and give them a chance 2334 02:06:19,880 --> 02:06:22,840 Speaker 13: to actually have some sort of deal going forward where 2335 02:06:22,840 --> 02:06:24,720 Speaker 13: they can have a chance and a hope for a future. 2336 02:06:24,760 --> 02:06:28,040 Speaker 13: And I think that if Hamas doesn't make good on 2337 02:06:28,120 --> 02:06:31,160 Speaker 13: its promises to leave, et cetera, they may find more 2338 02:06:31,200 --> 02:06:33,560 Speaker 13: trouble with the Palestinians than with the IDF. 2339 02:06:34,360 --> 02:06:38,480 Speaker 1: Isn't that what I'll say, local conflict like within Gaza 2340 02:06:38,520 --> 02:06:40,879 Speaker 1: and among the leadership of the Maas or lack thereof. 2341 02:06:41,240 --> 02:06:44,120 Speaker 1: Isn't that sort of the general concept that the Middle 2342 02:06:44,160 --> 02:06:46,600 Speaker 1: East is now sort of embracing, beginning with the Abraham 2343 02:06:46,600 --> 02:06:49,000 Speaker 1: peace of courts. If we all just agree that we're 2344 02:06:49,040 --> 02:06:51,600 Speaker 1: tired of terrorists, we're tired of fighting each other. If 2345 02:06:51,640 --> 02:06:54,520 Speaker 1: we just start trading and playing nice together, regardless of 2346 02:06:54,520 --> 02:06:57,360 Speaker 1: our differences, we're all going to benefit economically. It's going 2347 02:06:57,400 --> 02:07:00,200 Speaker 1: to be a powerhouse area of the world. Just put 2348 02:07:00,200 --> 02:07:03,480 Speaker 1: the damn guns down. So it's kind of a miniature 2349 02:07:03,560 --> 02:07:05,920 Speaker 1: version of the broader challenge in the Middle East, which 2350 02:07:05,960 --> 02:07:09,480 Speaker 1: seems that we are definitely making progress toward resolution these 2351 02:07:09,520 --> 02:07:11,280 Speaker 1: conflicts between the various Arab countries. 2352 02:07:12,080 --> 02:07:16,160 Speaker 13: Well, listen, the Gulf Corporation Council has been for more 2353 02:07:16,200 --> 02:07:18,920 Speaker 13: than a year emphatically saying a lot of those things. 2354 02:07:18,960 --> 02:07:22,200 Speaker 13: They say, we want to have improved relations with Israel. 2355 02:07:22,840 --> 02:07:25,360 Speaker 13: Of course President Trump it's his signature thing, so he 2356 02:07:25,360 --> 02:07:29,280 Speaker 13: would love the Abraham Accords to expand. Israel has recently 2357 02:07:29,360 --> 02:07:33,280 Speaker 13: said that they want ned Yahu specifically, they want normalized 2358 02:07:33,320 --> 02:07:35,640 Speaker 13: relations with the rest of the Middle East. So that 2359 02:07:35,800 --> 02:07:38,120 Speaker 13: is on the table that all the main parties have 2360 02:07:38,200 --> 02:07:40,920 Speaker 13: an interest in doing that, but that's going to require 2361 02:07:40,960 --> 02:07:45,000 Speaker 13: some giving, especially on the Israeli side, because, like I said, internally, 2362 02:07:45,320 --> 02:07:47,360 Speaker 13: a lot of them want to have a military victory 2363 02:07:47,400 --> 02:07:49,320 Speaker 13: here and then they want to get this other stuff. 2364 02:07:49,520 --> 02:07:54,160 Speaker 13: But if it doesn't it results in the Palestinian people 2365 02:07:54,280 --> 02:07:56,840 Speaker 13: having some kind of future and a hope, and whether 2366 02:07:56,920 --> 02:08:00,440 Speaker 13: that's a distant possibility for a state of their own 2367 02:08:00,800 --> 02:08:04,120 Speaker 13: or some kind of autonomous freedom where they can thrive 2368 02:08:04,160 --> 02:08:06,440 Speaker 13: as a people, at least the hope of it. Then 2369 02:08:06,840 --> 02:08:08,880 Speaker 13: the rest of the GCC probably is not going to 2370 02:08:08,880 --> 02:08:11,360 Speaker 13: be willing to do that. But if they can get there, 2371 02:08:11,760 --> 02:08:14,040 Speaker 13: then I think we actually have a broader shot. So 2372 02:08:14,360 --> 02:08:17,640 Speaker 13: there is a possibility, there's a path to potential piece, 2373 02:08:17,800 --> 02:08:19,360 Speaker 13: but it's going to take a lot, a lot of 2374 02:08:19,360 --> 02:08:21,080 Speaker 13: hard work, but it is there. 2375 02:08:21,200 --> 02:08:22,400 Speaker 17: So that is good news. 2376 02:08:22,760 --> 02:08:25,120 Speaker 1: Step in the right direction and connection with the Middle East. 2377 02:08:25,120 --> 02:08:27,640 Speaker 1: I'll take any step in the right direction. Daniel Davis, 2378 02:08:27,840 --> 02:08:31,560 Speaker 1: really quickly. You mentioned Hamas. Obviously they've been the disrupting factor. 2379 02:08:31,680 --> 02:08:35,040 Speaker 1: They ruled that area, they were the governing force. Who 2380 02:08:35,120 --> 02:08:39,440 Speaker 1: steps in If we assume Hamas is out, what coalition 2381 02:08:39,640 --> 02:08:43,720 Speaker 1: or what group of acceptable people is going to step 2382 02:08:43,760 --> 02:08:45,800 Speaker 1: in to provide the leadership for this region. 2383 02:08:46,800 --> 02:08:49,600 Speaker 13: Well, that's what's going to have to That's part of 2384 02:08:49,600 --> 02:08:52,360 Speaker 13: the fly in the ointment the difficulties because Israelis said 2385 02:08:52,400 --> 02:08:56,280 Speaker 13: they have to approve whoever goes in, but the Palestinians say, we. 2386 02:08:56,160 --> 02:08:57,440 Speaker 17: Want to choose who is. 2387 02:08:57,320 --> 02:09:00,080 Speaker 13: Going to lead us, not have it given by the 2388 02:09:00,280 --> 02:09:02,560 Speaker 13: you know, our enemy that over the last two years, 2389 02:09:02,600 --> 02:09:06,360 Speaker 13: et cetera. There is a guy named more Marwan Bukhari 2390 02:09:07,040 --> 02:09:11,160 Speaker 13: who is long respected among all the different Palestinian factions 2391 02:09:11,160 --> 02:09:13,080 Speaker 13: and they want him, but for some reason, Israel has 2392 02:09:13,160 --> 02:09:15,120 Speaker 13: not released him yet, even though they asked him. 2393 02:09:15,280 --> 02:09:19,240 Speaker 17: In this prisoner exchange that just happened. We'll see how 2394 02:09:19,240 --> 02:09:19,960 Speaker 17: that works out. 2395 02:09:20,040 --> 02:09:23,520 Speaker 13: But the Palestinians minus Hamas, they want to decide that 2396 02:09:23,640 --> 02:09:26,840 Speaker 13: on their own, and that's that's one of the next 2397 02:09:27,080 --> 02:09:28,320 Speaker 13: near term challenges. 2398 02:09:28,440 --> 02:09:30,880 Speaker 1: Certainly I can understand their one two the right to 2399 02:09:30,920 --> 02:09:35,120 Speaker 1: self determination, pivoting over as we must Russia Ukraine. I 2400 02:09:35,200 --> 02:09:37,600 Speaker 1: read this horrific statistic, and you and I have talked 2401 02:09:37,600 --> 02:09:39,360 Speaker 1: about the fog over war. How many people are actually 2402 02:09:39,480 --> 02:09:43,160 Speaker 1: dying and being killed in the Russian Ukraine conflict Politico 2403 02:09:43,360 --> 02:09:48,360 Speaker 1: article Russia bleeds troops form microscopic frontline gains initial sentence 2404 02:09:48,760 --> 02:09:52,760 Speaker 1: Russia lost two hundred and eighty one five hundred and 2405 02:09:52,800 --> 02:09:56,360 Speaker 1: fifty soldiers in Ukraine in the first eight months of 2406 02:09:56,440 --> 02:09:56,920 Speaker 1: this year. 2407 02:09:59,120 --> 02:10:00,760 Speaker 13: I'll just tell you to I don't believe that for 2408 02:10:00,800 --> 02:10:01,280 Speaker 13: a second. 2409 02:10:01,400 --> 02:10:03,040 Speaker 1: And well, I was going to say, even if it's 2410 02:10:03,120 --> 02:10:07,120 Speaker 1: half of that, we lost what fifty four thousand Americans 2411 02:10:07,200 --> 02:10:09,960 Speaker 1: fighting the Vietnam War for more than a decade, fifteen 2412 02:10:10,000 --> 02:10:12,920 Speaker 1: plus years. I mean, if this number is even half 2413 02:10:12,960 --> 02:10:16,360 Speaker 1: of that, the amount of life loss is just amazing. 2414 02:10:16,960 --> 02:10:17,160 Speaker 4: Yeah. 2415 02:10:17,360 --> 02:10:18,800 Speaker 17: I don't think it is even half that. 2416 02:10:19,240 --> 02:10:22,240 Speaker 13: And you've seen the Institute for the Study of War, 2417 02:10:22,280 --> 02:10:26,600 Speaker 13: which is big time pro Ukraine, revealed over the last 2418 02:10:26,680 --> 02:10:30,040 Speaker 13: couple of months, especially that Russia has significantly changed its 2419 02:10:30,120 --> 02:10:34,280 Speaker 13: tactics to where they have focused on firepower to destroy 2420 02:10:34,320 --> 02:10:37,200 Speaker 13: the Ukraine armed forces and minimized the exposure to their 2421 02:10:37,200 --> 02:10:38,200 Speaker 13: troops and they are. 2422 02:10:38,120 --> 02:10:38,960 Speaker 17: Succeeding at that. 2423 02:10:39,360 --> 02:10:40,040 Speaker 2: And I have. 2424 02:10:40,240 --> 02:10:44,360 Speaker 13: Recently talked to two separate people in the US military hierarchy, 2425 02:10:44,360 --> 02:10:47,960 Speaker 13: I'll just say, with access to classified information, and they 2426 02:10:48,000 --> 02:10:51,400 Speaker 13: have not revealed the exact information, but they said that 2427 02:10:51,400 --> 02:10:54,840 Speaker 13: that is wildly out of proportion, that that's what people 2428 02:10:54,880 --> 02:10:56,920 Speaker 13: want people to believe in the West so that they 2429 02:10:56,960 --> 02:10:58,480 Speaker 13: keep supporting to think they're succeeding. 2430 02:10:58,800 --> 02:11:00,000 Speaker 17: But they said it is not true. 2431 02:11:00,080 --> 02:11:03,320 Speaker 13: Russia is not suffering anywhere near those kind of casualties, 2432 02:11:03,360 --> 02:11:06,040 Speaker 13: and you see that on the front because they continue 2433 02:11:06,040 --> 02:11:08,480 Speaker 13: to go forward as opposed to the Ukraine side, which 2434 02:11:08,560 --> 02:11:10,800 Speaker 13: is suffering those casualties. And that's why it's so hard 2435 02:11:10,840 --> 02:11:14,360 Speaker 13: for them to bring all these reserves and even shore 2436 02:11:14,440 --> 02:11:17,440 Speaker 13: up the line, and they're making significant losses in the 2437 02:11:17,520 --> 02:11:22,160 Speaker 13: Koupiansk and in the other areas of the Donetic Front 2438 02:11:22,600 --> 02:11:25,280 Speaker 13: that have really started to pick up speed here of late. 2439 02:11:25,400 --> 02:11:27,680 Speaker 13: So it's not I think some people want that to 2440 02:11:27,680 --> 02:11:29,680 Speaker 13: sound like it's good news for the Ukraine side, but 2441 02:11:29,760 --> 02:11:31,640 Speaker 13: it's more bad news as far as I can see, 2442 02:11:31,640 --> 02:11:33,680 Speaker 13: and even more reason why we need to get this 2443 02:11:33,720 --> 02:11:35,080 Speaker 13: war wrapped up even more. 2444 02:11:35,280 --> 02:11:37,720 Speaker 1: Well, your comments are reflective of exactly why I brought 2445 02:11:37,800 --> 02:11:40,120 Speaker 1: this up, because I read the statistic this morning with 2446 02:11:40,160 --> 02:11:42,840 Speaker 1: a huge measure of skepticism because where do they pull 2447 02:11:42,920 --> 02:11:45,640 Speaker 1: these figures from. I don't know, but the volume of 2448 02:11:45,720 --> 02:11:50,880 Speaker 1: casualties just seemed unimaginable. Any chance that peace might break out, 2449 02:11:51,200 --> 02:11:53,880 Speaker 1: given that we've got some steps in the right direction 2450 02:11:53,960 --> 02:11:56,800 Speaker 1: between Israel and Hamas, that it might catch on between 2451 02:11:56,880 --> 02:11:58,160 Speaker 1: Russia and in Ukraine. 2452 02:11:59,360 --> 02:12:02,000 Speaker 13: Well, Trump wants that and he would love to have it. 2453 02:12:02,040 --> 02:12:04,320 Speaker 13: The Russians, obviously they would like to have it too, 2454 02:12:04,680 --> 02:12:07,320 Speaker 13: on their terms. The problem is, and I just gotta 2455 02:12:07,360 --> 02:12:09,240 Speaker 13: be honest, the problem is that the Ukraine side and 2456 02:12:09,280 --> 02:12:12,920 Speaker 13: the European side don't. They only want peace on their terms, 2457 02:12:12,920 --> 02:12:15,240 Speaker 13: and their pressure hard to get that. That's why Zelenski 2458 02:12:15,280 --> 02:12:17,520 Speaker 13: will be in town on Friday to talk to President 2459 02:12:17,600 --> 02:12:21,520 Speaker 13: Trump to try and really get him to release Tomahawk missiles, 2460 02:12:21,520 --> 02:12:22,400 Speaker 13: which Trump said. 2461 02:12:22,200 --> 02:12:23,200 Speaker 17: He would consider doing. 2462 02:12:23,400 --> 02:12:25,120 Speaker 13: I hope he doesn't, and I don't think that he 2463 02:12:25,200 --> 02:12:29,160 Speaker 13: really is, because that would only exacerbate and raise higher 2464 02:12:29,160 --> 02:12:32,040 Speaker 13: the possibility of a clash with Russia, which they said, 2465 02:12:32,080 --> 02:12:35,480 Speaker 13: this is different because the Tomahawk missile can contain a 2466 02:12:35,560 --> 02:12:39,200 Speaker 13: nuclear warhead where the others can't, so it's a bigger 2467 02:12:39,240 --> 02:12:41,080 Speaker 13: red line. I don't want to find out if they 2468 02:12:41,120 --> 02:12:43,360 Speaker 13: mean that or not, so I'm all for getting this 2469 02:12:43,440 --> 02:12:44,680 Speaker 13: deal wrapped up quickly. 2470 02:12:44,840 --> 02:12:47,120 Speaker 1: Amen to that, Daniel Davis. And Plus you also pointed 2471 02:12:47,160 --> 02:12:50,080 Speaker 1: out in our previous conversations, if we give him tomahawks, 2472 02:12:50,120 --> 02:12:54,480 Speaker 1: it's going to require American military personnel to operate them, 2473 02:12:54,480 --> 02:12:56,800 Speaker 1: which means we're in a fighting war with Russia, and 2474 02:12:56,840 --> 02:13:00,680 Speaker 1: nobody wants that. Daniel Davis, deep dive. Always a distinct 2475 02:13:00,680 --> 02:13:02,240 Speaker 1: pleasure to have you on the fifty five carssee Morning 2476 02:13:02,280 --> 02:13:04,200 Speaker 1: Shore every Tuesday.
