1
00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:07,400
Speaker 1: Good afternoon, Milwaukee. This is Jessica McBride of Wisconsin RightNow

2
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:10,800
Speaker 1: dot Com and I am filling in for the great

3
00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 1: Dan O'Donnell. I'm really excited to be here. There's so

4
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,320
Speaker 1: much going on. I have so much to talk to

5
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 1: you about. It is not a slow week. Story of

6
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 1: the day. The story of the day. Everyone is apparently

7
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 1: getting fired, well not everyone, but some really big names

8
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:38,919
Speaker 1: are on the chopping block today. One nationally, a lot

9
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 1: of you have probably heard about that news already. The

10
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 1: other one Wisconsin based. So let's dive right in for

11
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 1: a few minutes here and talk about the big one,

12
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 1: the big one, and then I have actually a good

13
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 1: interview I want to do in the first half hour

14
00:00:55,920 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 1: of the show. Pam Bondy was today by Donald Trump.

15
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 1: That's the big news of the day. You know, I

16
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 1: think every time on this show something really big happens

17
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 1: right before the show. I kind of look out in

18
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 1: that way. I think one time when I filled in

19
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 1: for Dan, Hannah Dugan got arrested and frog marched out

20
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 1: of the Milwaukee County courthouse. So it kind of makes

21
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: my job easy sitting here in the talk show host seat.

22
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 1: Pam Bondy fired. And now I was joking to someone

23
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 1: off the air before I came on here that it's

24
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 1: not gonna take me an hour to talk about why

25
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 1: Pam Bondy was fired today because she didn't do anything.

26
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 1: She didn't do anything. Actually, she did some negative things.

27
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 1: If that's a thing, If like not doing something is

28
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 1: a thing, then she did bad things. I can't think

29
00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 1: of a single thing that Pam Bondy did Attorney General

30
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: Pambondy dead that I thought was great, not one. As

31
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: my producer in there, can you think of one thing

32
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 1: that Pambondy did that was great? Yeah, he took two

33
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 1: seconds to say not off hand. I actually might challenge

34
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 1: people to come up with anything in the second half

35
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 1: of the show. We'll see how much time I have.

36
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 1: So obviously the prevailing narrative would be that you know,

37
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:36,079
Speaker 1: she didn't handle the Epstein file release. Well, that's one thing,

38
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:39,639
Speaker 1: of course, and I'm old enough to remember, as are

39
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 1: all of you. Pam Bondy stating that the files were

40
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 1: sitting on my desk right now for review. That was

41
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 1: the quote. They're sitting on my desk right now to

42
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: review now, as with all the ice stuff and Christinome.

43
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 1: When it comes to the Epstein files and Pam Bondy,

44
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:07,800
Speaker 1: you sort of have to sort out the unfair, false,

45
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: you know, out to get Trump liberal media narrative on

46
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 1: those topics from you know, what Christinome did or didn't do,

47
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 1: and you know, and from what Pam Bondy did or

48
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 1: didn't do right. And so I don't think the elite

49
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 1: liberal media narrative on the Epstein files was a complete hoax.

50
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 1: I think they're trying to capitalize on it. I think

51
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 1: they're being unfair to Trump when when it comes to

52
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 1: the reporting on the Epstein files, in a lot of ways,

53
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 1: we could spend an hour on that. I'm not going to.

54
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 1: But I'm also not going to pretend that Pam Bondy

55
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 1: handled those files and that the release situation perfectly She didn't.

56
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 1: She didn't, and I don't like it. Kind of the

57
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 1: same thing with Christineome. The left wing narrative against Ice

58
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 1: is so incredibly dishonest. It's really a despicably dishonest narrative.

59
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 1: That being said, Christininome really botched a lot of the

60
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 1: pr around what was going on in Minnesota, and she

61
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: as a result, she harmed Donald Trump's narrative on immigration,

62
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 1: you know, by sort of losing control of that narrative,

63
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 1: they put out too much information that didn't end up

64
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 1: being exactly true and things like that, and I didn't

65
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 1: like that either. And so it goes with Pam Bondi

66
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,840
Speaker 1: and the Epstein files. There is a report now this

67
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: is coming out of the Daily Mail. I'm going to stipulate,

68
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,160
Speaker 1: you know, right out of the gate, that's a British tabloid.

69
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 1: We all know what the Daily Mail is. I think

70
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,919
Speaker 1: they do actually some good reporting and a lot of

71
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,600
Speaker 1: what they do is aggregation. And I've also seen them

72
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: be really wrong on a couple things. So it's a tabloid.

73
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 1: That being said, I mean, they did just break the christyome.

74
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 1: I don't want to go go there on this one

75
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: husband shoving allegedly shoving balloons down his shirt story. But anyway,

76
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:10,039
Speaker 1: they're saying that Pam Bondy allegedly begged Donald Trump not

77
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 1: to fire her, and that Trump wasn't only upset about

78
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: the pr mishandling of the Epstein files, but was also

79
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 1: upset that supposedly allegedly again considered the sours Daily Mail

80
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:29,159
Speaker 1: that she was accused of tipping off this Democratic Congressman

81
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: Eric Swalwell. That's a mouthful. It's like a tongue twister

82
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 1: to say his name. Anyway, Tipping him off about the

83
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 1: FBI's efforts to release documents related to his relationship with

84
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: a Chinese spy. We all remember that story. And he's

85
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 1: in this big, you know, legal battle with the FBI

86
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 1: right now trying to block release of these documents. And

87
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 1: there's this allegation that Trump believes that Pam Bondy tipped

88
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: him off about the FBI's pending release of those documents.

89
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 1: And there's a third narrative here that Donald Trump was

90
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:15,799
Speaker 1: upset by the stalled investigation into whether former CIA director

91
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:19,480
Speaker 1: John Brennan. Now he's a buffoon if there ever was one,

92
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,039
Speaker 1: one of the least pleasant people in public life that

93
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: he you know, he's under investigation into accusations that he

94
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,480
Speaker 1: made false statements to Congress. This goes back to that

95
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 1: ridiculous intelligence assessment into the Russian hoax. And this week

96
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:44,280
Speaker 1: on Wednesday, Bondi apparently summoned the head prosecutor in Miami

97
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:48,039
Speaker 1: who's over this probe and will ultimately decide whether to

98
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:51,359
Speaker 1: file charges at a local level, in the US Attorney's

99
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,160
Speaker 1: office though, of course, and she summoned him to her

100
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: office to DC on Wednesday, And this is being depicted

101
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 1: as a possible attempt to ward off being terminated by

102
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Now, Donald Trump, let me stipulate something. I

103
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 1: voted for the man every time he was on the ballot. Okay,

104
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: I'm kind of proud of that because a lot of

105
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 1: my cohorts in Wisconsin back in twenty sixteen in the primary,

106
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: a lot of people I respect very much, they were

107
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 1: on the Ted Cruz train, and I voted for Trump

108
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 1: even then. So I respect Donald Trump in a lot

109
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 1: of ways. I really like a lot of his policies.

110
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 1: That being said, I wish you would get some of

111
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 1: these hires, correct, right, I mean, you wouldn't have to

112
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 1: fire so many people if you didn't hire bad people.

113
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 1: And the amount of turnover in both of his administrations

114
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 1: of people, frankly who I thought were going to be

115
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: really good on the front end too, like James Mattis

116
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 1: or Rex Tillerson and all of these people from the

117
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 1: first administration, you know they were you know, were fired

118
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,119
Speaker 1: at sort of warp speed. I know that's what Donald

119
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 1: Trump does. Like I'm old enough to remember the Apprentice.

120
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 1: But I don't think the amount of turnover, you know,

121
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 1: in his leadership ranks is a good thing. I don't

122
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 1: think that's a good thing. I'd like to see him

123
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,559
Speaker 1: kind of get it right, you know, out of the gate.

124
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 1: That being said, I'm not I'm not just pleased that

125
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: Pam Bondi is gone, because, as I said when I

126
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 1: started this this segment, I don't think she really did

127
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 1: anything that I can even mention that I actually liked

128
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 1: the other person, because I had sort of mentioned there's

129
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 1: a second firing situation going on, that one I'm going

130
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 1: to tell you about after I do the interview I

131
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 1: have lined up for you. So I'm going to tell

132
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 1: you about the Wisconsin situation, you know, in the second

133
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 1: half of this first hour of the show. What I

134
00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,439
Speaker 1: want to do right now, though, is I want to

135
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,720
Speaker 1: switch gear and I want to go to State Rep.

136
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 1: Barbara Dietrich. She is the Rep in my backyard out

137
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 1: there in the o'conomwok area. Representative Dietrich, thank you for

138
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 1: joining me on the show.

139
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:17,079
Speaker 2: Well, thanks for having me.

140
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 1: Yes, thank you so much. So I asked you to

141
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 1: come on for what I think is a really important reason,

142
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:28,840
Speaker 1: and that is I want to educate the listening audience,

143
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 1: the public really on Tony Ever's veto rampage. Okay, so

144
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: he's been on this, as you know, this rampage of

145
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 1: vetos for about a week and a half, I would say,

146
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 1: and there were some really really disturbing vetos that came

147
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 1: down the other day, and they deal with let me,

148
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 1: we want to strip the euphemisms away. So really what

149
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: they deal with is protecting youth. I would say, it's

150
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 1: not being painted that way. And so I asked a

151
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 1: representative Dietrich, to come on so we can go through

152
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 1: these bills because she was an author and really leading

153
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 1: the charge on these efforts and educate people about what

154
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 1: Ever's actually did. So, so let me read first the

155
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:21,680
Speaker 1: headline in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on some of these vetos.

156
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 1: The Journal Centinel wrote, Tony Evers Vito's bills restricting gender

157
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: care and transgender athletes. Okay. Now, I'm a person who

158
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 1: believes language really matters. Who controls language controls culture, and

159
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 1: who controls culture controls politics, and who controls politics controls

160
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 1: all of our futures. And I think one of the

161
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 1: reasons that Jim Pivovarchik, and I've created Wisconsin RightNow dot

162
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 1: Com is to take the language back on issues like this,

163
00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 1: and the left for so long, aided and abetted by

164
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 1: their allies in the liberal media, they have referred to

165
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 1: boys and girls, sports pronoun issues, transgender mulation, surgeries of miners,

166
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,679
Speaker 1: using these euphemisms like gender care, you know, gender affirming care,

167
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 1: et cetera. All right, so, Representative Dietrich, let's go through

168
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 1: these bills. Let's start there one by one, and I

169
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,760
Speaker 1: was hoping you could tell me what they actually would

170
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 1: have done. So let's start with AB one hundred and

171
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:28,679
Speaker 1: one oh two. Can you tell me about those bills?

172
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 2: I sure can. I've been fighting that battle for seven years,

173
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:40,200
Speaker 2: and really before anybody heard of names like Riley Gaines,

174
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,319
Speaker 2: which has you know, has become a name that's been

175
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 2: pretty widely known in the media. So they would have

176
00:11:51,400 --> 00:12:00,240
Speaker 2: protected our girls in both K through twelve and age

177
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 2: at sports and not only just performance, but also the

178
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 2: locker rooms. When I first introduced these bills, I was

179
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 2: laughed at and told I was creating a solution in

180
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 2: search of a problem. And now we actually have females

181
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 2: who have been disabled being injured by biological males. Peyton

182
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 2: McNabb has been permanently disabled competing in high school volleyball

183
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 2: having a volleyball spiked at her. She was supposed to uh,

184
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:46,719
Speaker 2: she actually had a scholarship to go to onto collegiate volleyball,

185
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:52,199
Speaker 2: but was disabled, had her vision ruined, and and has

186
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 2: headaches and so forth, and and mobility issues of She

187
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:07,199
Speaker 2: was at one of the Trump speeches and has been

188
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 2: permanently injured by that, by being forced to compete against

189
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:17,800
Speaker 2: biological male and a volleyball team competing against her, and

190
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 2: you know, I mean, this is the sort of thing

191
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 2: we're dealing with. And Tony Evers acts like, you know,

192
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,599
Speaker 2: the biological male she was forced to compete against is

193
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 2: the victims and all cloked in the language of as

194
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 2: you said, trans Rits.

195
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 1: You know, this is about protecting This is about protecting youth.

196
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 1: That's what this if we're going to take the language back,

197
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: and it's also about protecting girls and women's equality. You know,

198
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 1: where are the feminists on this? I mean, I learned

199
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:57,560
Speaker 1: so much playing high school volleyball, playing high school softball,

200
00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 1: you know, I think I learned almost every skill I use.

201
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,240
Speaker 1: And in the business world, you know, on the high

202
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 1: school volleyball court, and you know I want girls and

203
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 1: women's spaces protected.

204
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 3: Well exactly.

205
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 2: I will tell you Paula Scanlon, who's who's a national figure.

206
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 2: She was actually on the team that the male I'm

207
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 2: blanking out. Who who Riley Gains lost her her medal

208
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 2: to Thomas? Uh yeah, Leah Thomas. Who's really Will Thomas.

209
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 2: She Paula Scanlon was actually on the same team as

210
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 2: Will Thomas. And Paula Scanlon actually was a sexual assault victim.

211
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 2: So imagine having to share a locker room and get

212
00:14:56,680 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 2: naked in the same locker room with with Will Thomas

213
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 2: who was walking around that locker room naked fully intact mail.

214
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's traumatizing. So so we actually have

215
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 2: a gubernatorial candidate right right now who who is one

216
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 2: of our senators? That was all you Rare Rah cheering

217
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 2: that Tony ires vetoed these bills.

218
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 4: To her No.

219
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 2: Call de roys both of them.

220
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 1: Actually we're both.

221
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, and so I mean this, this is what

222
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,480
Speaker 2: we're what we're up against in the elections a fall.

223
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 2: It's insane, and I will tell you most Wisconsin are

224
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 2: not on the same page with this. We've surveyed this

225
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 2: over and over and over and over again, and I

226
00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:00,320
Speaker 2: will tell you Tonys likes to say the will of

227
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 2: the people is the law of the land, except when

228
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:05,800
Speaker 2: it comes to this. So so.

229
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 1: Right, right right, You're the kid. What happened to that?

230
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 1: You're the kid? But you know to heck with girls,

231
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 1: you know, and you know, trying to play in a

232
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 1: fair athletic space. Okay, if you can hold on, Representative Dietrick,

233
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 1: we have a couple other bills to go through. I

234
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 1: want to take a quick break and then we come back.

235
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 1: We're going to keep going through it. Tony Evers actually

236
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 1: did Welcome back to the Dan O'Donnell show. Jessica McBride

237
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 1: Wisconsin right NOOW dot com sitting in for Dan, and

238
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 1: I am speaking with State Representative Barb Dietrich. She is

239
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 1: one of my favorite legislators. She quietly gets a lot done,

240
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 1: you know, not bombastic, not a flamethrower, just to sort

241
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 1: of constantly quietly getting a lot done. So Represented Dietrich,

242
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 1: we are going through Tony Evers crazy horrific vetos some

243
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,600
Speaker 1: of them anyway, and trying to strip back the euphemisms

244
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:04,440
Speaker 1: for people So let's move on to the third one,

245
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 1: which is AB one oh three. This was a parents'

246
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 1: rights bill. Of course, you wouldn't know that from the

247
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:13,400
Speaker 1: liberal media who are painting these as bills that restrict

248
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 1: the rights of transgender people and restrict gender care. All right,

249
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,360
Speaker 1: so what did AB one oh three actually do?

250
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:29,439
Speaker 2: So this kind of cracks me up, because you know,

251
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 2: with all these bills, you know, we parents are responsible

252
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 2: for our children, are we not? Yet these things are

253
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:50,959
Speaker 2: done off and behind our backs. Okay? So AB one

254
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 2: o three was bill that myself and Senator Andre Jacques

255
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:03,160
Speaker 2: introduced that would simply require a school to have a

256
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 2: policy in place when a student wanted to have their

257
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 2: name and pronoun be changed in school. And I mean,

258
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 2: this was the end of the world to our friends

259
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:28,000
Speaker 2: on the other team, if you will, and you know,

260
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 2: I just to me, I will tell you ever since

261
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,160
Speaker 2: you know COVID nineteen, the good thing about that whole

262
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:42,120
Speaker 2: situation was it really exposed to parents that there were

263
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:44,600
Speaker 2: things going on in the schools that they really didn't

264
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:49,600
Speaker 2: know about. And since that time, I've really worked tirelessly

265
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 2: to really recreate that three legged stool where schools, parents

266
00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:00,440
Speaker 2: and students are working together as a team again, and

267
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 2: this would be one good case of that where you know, okay,

268
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:13,880
Speaker 2: to my mind, a lot of this transgender stuff that's

269
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,199
Speaker 2: going on is a mental health issue. And if a

270
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,840
Speaker 2: student is wanting to do this and not wanting a

271
00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:25,280
Speaker 2: parent to know about it, you know, we've got to

272
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:29,639
Speaker 2: get be having conversations here together. Okay, you don't sneak

273
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 2: around behind a parent's back and call one name at

274
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 2: home and a different aim at school. We need to

275
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 2: be sitting down school, parent and student together and being

276
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,919
Speaker 2: having a conversation. And this is really what AB one

277
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:48,639
Speaker 2: h three would have done. It would have required the

278
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 2: school board to adopt a policy and where the parent

279
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:56,400
Speaker 2: would be would be notified here and let's get working

280
00:19:56,480 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 2: as a team together. But you know, really, again, like

281
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 2: you said this, this language conflates the situation and calls

282
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:12,359
Speaker 2: it antitrans No, that's not.

283
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:12,919
Speaker 3: What it does.

284
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 2: Creates a policy where where we have the school working

285
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:20,159
Speaker 2: together with the parents.

286
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,159
Speaker 1: Well, it empowers the parent to be the parent, yes,

287
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:24,720
Speaker 1: and it empowers the parents.

288
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:25,119
Speaker 3: To my parent.

289
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 1: It enshrines, you know, parental rights. It it simply prevented

290
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 1: school districts from sneaking around behind the parents' backs and

291
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 1: acting like they're the parent, which they're not. This is

292
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 1: common sense. I think this is, like you indicated before

293
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 1: we went to the break, this is a huge crossover issue.

294
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 1: This has got to be an eighty five percent ninety

295
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 1: percent issue on the side of conservatives when people hear

296
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,400
Speaker 1: what it actually does. And that's why I think it's

297
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,320
Speaker 1: so important to take this time now. If you want

298
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,359
Speaker 1: bills like this one or the one we talked about about,

299
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,000
Speaker 1: you know, banning boys from girls sports and locker rooms,

300
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,959
Speaker 1: if you want bills like this to pass, then you know,

301
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 1: Tom Tiffany's on the ballot in November and he did

302
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:12,640
Speaker 1: put out a statement calling evers Vetos crazy. He said,

303
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 1: how crazy is this to veto something like this? All right,

304
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 1: so let's move on.

305
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:21,080
Speaker 2: To the next. Before you move on, I also want

306
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 2: to want to point out, Jessica that this is this

307
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:28,479
Speaker 2: particular bill is something that's already been settled but by

308
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:34,120
Speaker 2: the US Supreme Court. So you know, what is Wisconsin's

309
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 2: governor doing here? So this tells you how deranged this is.

310
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's not alone because, as you know you

311
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 1: indicated before the break as well, there were two Democratic

312
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 1: candidates for governor, Calderoyz and Francesca Hong who came out

313
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:55,480
Speaker 1: and they applauded these vetos, and the other candidates were

314
00:21:55,520 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 1: absolutely stone cold silent. Meanwhile, you had so Rodriguez and

315
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:05,160
Speaker 1: Missy Hughes, as are other Democratic candidates for governor, who

316
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 1: took the time to applaud the crazy no Kings protests,

317
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 1: but they were absolutely silent on this. You had Mendela Barnes.

318
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 1: I looked on his ex page when these vetos came down,

319
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 1: and he was hawking his merch okay, but he couldn't

320
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 1: be bothered to release a single statement condemning these vetos.

321
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 1: Why not because obviously they're for these vetos, but they

322
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 1: know it's not a popular stance. So a lot of

323
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,639
Speaker 1: them are just cowards and they just stayed silent and

324
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 1: wrote about other things. All right, Moving on to the

325
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,439
Speaker 1: other one. AB one oh four, This is a really

326
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:44,399
Speaker 1: big deal. This dealt with the surgeries for minors. You

327
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: can tell us about that one.

328
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:57,600
Speaker 2: So actually AB one oh four would also is really chemical,

329
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 2: any chemical castration of a minor. It would not allow

330
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 2: anything of that that sort. And you know, I mean

331
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 2: these are kids people. Uh we now know that that

332
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:26,920
Speaker 2: it's false, and now the the medical professionals have come

333
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 2: out and said, yeah, no, we we probably should hold

334
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:39,680
Speaker 2: off on this sort of thing for for for minors.

335
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:47,200
Speaker 2: You know, it's really interesting how the medical profession has

336
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 2: changed on this drastically. Really statistics show that a lot

337
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 2: of these youth will by the time they reached their

338
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 2: early twenties with the gender dysphoria, will maybe decide, you know,

339
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:19,159
Speaker 2: maybe they are same sex attracted, but they won't. And

340
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,600
Speaker 2: a lot of these kids, I will point out, are

341
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,840
Speaker 2: on the autism spectrum, so they're making up to make

342
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 2: up permanent decision like this when they're a minor. This

343
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 2: is you know, I really plod Representative Alan for spearheading

344
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 2: this and this again very disturbing that this was was

345
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 2: vetoed and there was.

346
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 1: Relating to surgeries as well.

347
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 2: Correct well, there's the final one was also would have

348
00:24:51,160 --> 00:25:03,360
Speaker 2: given rights to have legal cause to sue a doctor

349
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 2: when there was medical harm. When you when you look

350
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 2: at it's really kind of gruesome when you look at

351
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:15,359
Speaker 2: some of these gender transition surgeries and a lot of

352
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:22,159
Speaker 2: these people that go through the surgical transition have severe

353
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:28,679
Speaker 2: medical problems for years and years and years afterwards, infections

354
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,920
Speaker 2: for years and years afterwards. I mean, it's it's really

355
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:38,719
Speaker 2: sold to people as a you know that they're going

356
00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:44,640
Speaker 2: to be so happy after they do this, and sadly

357
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:48,680
Speaker 2: it doesn't solve the problems that.

358
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:54,879
Speaker 3: It's it's sold to them as solving and leads to

359
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 3: a lot of heartbreak for people and a lot of

360
00:25:58,080 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 3: medical problems.

361
00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:03,359
Speaker 2: And this would have given them cause of action to

362
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 2: sue the doctors when they have these medical problems. And

363
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 2: if we told that as well, so you know, and

364
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,960
Speaker 2: I who really cares about these people? Yeah?

365
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 1: Right? And when I think of these issues relating to

366
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 1: minors and pumping medications in them and irreversible hormone therapy

367
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:27,880
Speaker 1: and you know, surgeries and all of this kind of thing,

368
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:32,639
Speaker 1: I think about how undeveloped the brains are of people,

369
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,680
Speaker 1: even under you know, even under say twenty five. And

370
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,680
Speaker 1: it's interesting to me that in criminal court this is recognized.

371
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 1: Like the Left, they're always arguing, for example, that people

372
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,879
Speaker 1: who are seventeen who commit heinous crimes should not be

373
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:49,360
Speaker 1: charged as adults because their brains are unformed and all

374
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 1: of this, and yet when it comes to a mulation surgery,

375
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:57,480
Speaker 1: when you're fifteen or sixteen, they're they're all in for that,

376
00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:02,359
Speaker 1: and I think it's atrocious. Applaud the legislature for taking

377
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,639
Speaker 1: a stand on this and you as well. I have

378
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:06,879
Speaker 1: to go to another break, but thank you for coming

379
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 1: on the program and going through through these bills with

380
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:15,520
Speaker 1: me and telling the public what they actually would have done.

381
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,439
Speaker 1: Stay with me, You'll be right back. Welcome back to

382
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:23,600
Speaker 1: the show. Jessica McBride sitting in for Dan O'Donnell man.

383
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:29,199
Speaker 1: Tony Evers vetos have been absolutely horrific, and we just

384
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,280
Speaker 1: went through five of them. There's so many. I could

385
00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:35,680
Speaker 1: take the whole show going through Tony Evers horrific vetos,

386
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 1: and it certainly makes the case for Tom Tiffany. Some

387
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:44,200
Speaker 1: common sense please in the governor's office. I mean, here's

388
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:49,199
Speaker 1: another example. Here's another example. He vetoed a bill that

389
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:54,440
Speaker 1: would have mandated that child welfare officials social workers, right,

390
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:56,359
Speaker 1: and that you're working for the county in the state

391
00:27:56,400 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 1: and everything refer all cases of threatened or inspected child

392
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 1: abuse to police. I want you to wrap your heads

393
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 1: around that. One who gets that on their desk, as

394
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 1: Governoran says, oh yeah, I'm not for that. I'm not

395
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:19,240
Speaker 1: for making sure the child welfare officials working for government

396
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:23,400
Speaker 1: tell the police when they get an accusation of suspected

397
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 1: child abuse, and then turn turns around and tries to

398
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 1: say with a straight face that he was for kids,

399
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:37,400
Speaker 1: the yur of the kid. He also vetoed a bill

400
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 1: that would have toughened penalties on drug dealers who deal

401
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 1: very serious drugs like heroin, methaphetamine, fentanyl around homeless shelters.

402
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:53,560
Speaker 1: Just an unbelievable series of vetos. We've written about a

403
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:58,240
Speaker 1: number of them at Wisconsin right Now dot com. Okay,

404
00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:00,240
Speaker 1: so I want to switch it up and light it

405
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 1: up for a minute here. We've got so much bad

406
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 1: stuff to talk about we always do. Sorry, but I've

407
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:10,240
Speaker 1: got some funny audio for you, and it just underscores

408
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 1: how ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous the left is. So I want

409
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:17,480
Speaker 1: to start with a clip of a man who is

410
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:22,800
Speaker 1: that one of these crazy No Kings protests, and he's

411
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 1: talking about how men have now started wearing red lipstick

412
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 1: to protest Donald Trump.

413
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:33,800
Speaker 5: Hello, it's the Master.

414
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:36,959
Speaker 6: The reason I have red lipstick, honest, because I'm at

415
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:38,960
Speaker 6: a demonstration in Traverse City.

416
00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,360
Speaker 1: There are thousands of us and red lipstick.

417
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 6: I was in formed last night by my friend Jen

418
00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 6: was a form of resistance when Hitler was trying to

419
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 6: take over the world. He didn't like women wearing red lipstick.

420
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 6: So I've decided red lipstick. Everybody put on red lipstick

421
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 6: to show resist. It's against you know who, be kind yourself,

422
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 6: be kind others over and ours.

423
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 1: My goodness, I don't even know where to start with.

424
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 1: I mean, that's my producer. Hey, are you gonna start

425
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:15,040
Speaker 1: wearing red lipstick?

426
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:17,080
Speaker 4: Oh?

427
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 1: He said he never stopped. No, he's just kidding. No,

428
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 1: you would not look good in red lipstick. Please do

429
00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 1: not wear red lipstick?

430
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 4: What?

431
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:25,520
Speaker 6: Oh?

432
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, he liked the James Brown music. I think in

433
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:30,960
Speaker 1: the background, like what has gone? What is going on

434
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 1: in society? Have people gone absolutely mad? And you know what,

435
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:37,960
Speaker 1: I would argue it's all on the left, but it's

436
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 1: unfortunately it's not all on the left. And like I

437
00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:43,000
Speaker 1: did sort of mention this briefly, and I'm only gonna

438
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,120
Speaker 1: mention it briefly again because I just don't want to

439
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 1: pylon on the topic. But Christy Nomes's husband is allegedly

440
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:57,840
Speaker 1: shoving balloons down his spandex yoga shirt, Like, what what

441
00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 1: is this? What is happening in society? Like I saw

442
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:04,600
Speaker 1: that story and it started on Daily Mails. You wonder again,

443
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 1: like is this true or not? I almost spin out

444
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:12,680
Speaker 1: my coffee. I almost spin out my coffee. I actually

445
00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:16,440
Speaker 1: feel sorry for Christy. No, she's not the one shoveling

446
00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 1: balloons down her shirt. Her daughters and her they're victims

447
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:26,560
Speaker 1: of that. But men wearing red lipstick, no, please, No,

448
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 1: you know what, liberal women can have the red lipstick

449
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:33,080
Speaker 1: wearing men. They can have the men with the man bonds.

450
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:38,920
Speaker 1: They can have these metrosexual men. Conservative women will take

451
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:47,960
Speaker 1: all of the nice conservative Trump voting blue collar guys,

452
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:51,760
Speaker 1: masculine guys, the cowboys of the world. Okay, well, we'll

453
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 1: take all of them because the liberal women apparently don't

454
00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:58,960
Speaker 1: want these conservative men, right, Like they're dumping men because

455
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:02,760
Speaker 1: they're masculine or they voted for Trump. And then I'm saying,

456
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 1: and I'm sure there's a lot of conservative women out

457
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 1: there who are with me on this. Fine, more conservative

458
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:13,240
Speaker 1: and more good conservative men for the rest of us.

459
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 1: They can have the lipstick wearing men or the men

460
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 1: who shove balloons down their shirts or whatever. Okay, But

461
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 1: lest you think the crazy liberal men are just these

462
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 1: average guys that show up at No King's protests, a

463
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 1: lot of them are probably being dragged there by the

464
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:37,920
Speaker 1: way by their crazed wives. I think a lot of

465
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 1: those men that get dragged to the No Kings protests

466
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:44,160
Speaker 1: by their crazy liberal wives secretly vote for Trump, That's

467
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 1: what I think. And they just go to these things

468
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 1: because they don't they can't think of a way to

469
00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 1: get out of it and keep the peace, so they

470
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:58,160
Speaker 1: tag along and then they secretly vote for Trump. But anyway,

471
00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,440
Speaker 1: lest you think it's just these average guys, I have

472
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 1: an entertaining clip of Gavin Newsom, who a lot of

473
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:06,400
Speaker 1: people think will be the front runner for you know,

474
00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 1: the Democrats for president down the road. Let's listen to

475
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 1: an absolute Kamala Harris ask word salad from Gavin Newsom

476
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 1: the other day, and I challenge you to try to

477
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:22,000
Speaker 1: translate or interpret at all what this man is saying.

478
00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 1: This is the quality of the Democrats today, ladies and gentlemen.

479
00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:28,880
Speaker 7: This is next level, man. This is one of the

480
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:36,840
Speaker 7: most interesting places I have ever been here eighty h

481
00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:41,720
Speaker 7: b Avenue. I mean, everything about this is I feel

482
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:47,720
Speaker 7: like I'm home. You know, dyslexics are surrounded by you know,

483
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 7: these special folks, particularly the young folks there.

484
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:52,360
Speaker 2: So I'm grateful.

485
00:33:53,160 --> 00:34:02,840
Speaker 7: I'm also weird, Sean, I'm you know, forgive me. You

486
00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 7: know this is embarrassing. He's can turn all that off

487
00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:11,880
Speaker 7: just because all the noise, You know that we just

488
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:15,279
Speaker 7: need to turn off. And this is this is this.

489
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,839
Speaker 7: Listen to this. This is it, man, this is it.

490
00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 7: You want to fix all this stuff? This is it.

491
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,800
Speaker 7: Listen to these guys. You know, we're all just sitting

492
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,440
Speaker 7: there yelling and screaming at each other. Everybody's getting each

493
00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,799
Speaker 7: other's throats and trying to tear everybody down, and you know,

494
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:33,760
Speaker 7: how are we going to get out of this?

495
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:33,200
Speaker 4: This?

496
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:36,359
Speaker 7: This is it? You heard these guys?

497
00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:39,719
Speaker 1: What was that?

498
00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 8: Like?

499
00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:41,399
Speaker 1: What was that?

500
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:41,640
Speaker 4: Like?

501
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 1: I I will give anyone my paycheck who can interpret

502
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:50,359
Speaker 1: what the bleep Gavin Newsom was actually staying there? Did

503
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:52,640
Speaker 1: you catch the line where you said I'm weird and

504
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 1: trailed up? You know whoever runs against him for president someday,

505
00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:02,920
Speaker 1: because that'll happen, right be or Vance probably Vance, maybe Rubio.

506
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:06,560
Speaker 1: Just clip out that little piece I'm weird and run

507
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:10,680
Speaker 1: it over over again in an ad. Okay, back to

508
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:15,040
Speaker 1: serious stuff. So I had teased at the top of

509
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:17,920
Speaker 1: the hour that there was also a Wisconsin firing going on,

510
00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 1: and so the last couple of minutes I have here

511
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,239
Speaker 1: in this hour, I'm going to tell you about that

512
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 1: Jay Rothman UW system. Well, I guess it used to

513
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:29,879
Speaker 1: be called UW system. It's now the Universities of Wisconsin.

514
00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,640
Speaker 1: I can't switch, Okay, I'm just gonna keep calling it

515
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:34,920
Speaker 1: the UW System. I don't know why they changed the

516
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:38,480
Speaker 1: name in the first place, but he's the president of it,

517
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,399
Speaker 1: and it came out today in the Associated Press that

518
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:46,279
Speaker 1: he is saying that the Board of Regents told him

519
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:52,719
Speaker 1: to resign or be fired, and he responded, no, no,

520
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:57,120
Speaker 1: I'm not going to resign in lieu of being fired

521
00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:01,719
Speaker 1: because you haven't given me a reason for this. So

522
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:07,279
Speaker 1: the non transparent Board of Regents is completely silent on this.

523
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 1: Their spokesperson said something like they're having discussions about their

524
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 1: future and they've provided no reason for this. Now. I

525
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 1: always have to stipulate, because I do work at the

526
00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:22,839
Speaker 1: University of Wisconsin Milwaukee, that my positions, my opinions are

527
00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:26,120
Speaker 1: always representative only of myself and not of the institution

528
00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 1: where I work. What I will say about Jay Rothman,

529
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:31,120
Speaker 1: I mean, first of all, it's like hard to weigh

530
00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:35,560
Speaker 1: in when we don't know why they want to fire him.

531
00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 1: What I would say is the man obviously deserves to

532
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:43,360
Speaker 1: know the reasons. It's always suspicious when people want to

533
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:45,399
Speaker 1: fire someone and they won't say why. I mean, that's

534
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 1: obviously very suspicious. I will also point out that these

535
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:52,279
Speaker 1: are evers appointees. They dominate the Board of Regents that

536
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:56,200
Speaker 1: controls the UW, which again goes back to the overarching

537
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,479
Speaker 1: point of the hour, which is, you know, you don't

538
00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:01,560
Speaker 1: like some of the stuff they do. You know, elect

539
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:05,280
Speaker 1: Tom Tiffany in November, and that's obviously your choice whether

540
00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:07,719
Speaker 1: to do that or not. But they're they're you know,

541
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:11,080
Speaker 1: the governor does so many things. He remakes the judiciary,

542
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:15,319
Speaker 1: he remakes DA's offices through appointments, and he remakes the

543
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:19,799
Speaker 1: UW through appointments to the Board of Regents. I will

544
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:24,239
Speaker 1: say Jay Roffman, I've heard from various legislators. In my

545
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:26,919
Speaker 1: own take on him, is kind of a mixed bag,

546
00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 1: Like he's done some things I thought, well, I don't

547
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:33,120
Speaker 1: really like that, but he's done other things I sort

548
00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:35,920
Speaker 1: of liked. One thing he did that I did like

549
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:40,680
Speaker 1: is he took a stand for really honestly free speech,

550
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:46,920
Speaker 1: but against using the university's institutional power to weigh in

551
00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:50,040
Speaker 1: on politicized topics. So, for example, you may remember that

552
00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:54,240
Speaker 1: UW Milwaukee outrageously, in my opinion, put out a statement

553
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:58,920
Speaker 1: calling for a cease fire in Israel in Gaza, and

554
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 1: it's just not an appropriate use of institutional power to

555
00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:06,160
Speaker 1: do that. That happened when the encampments were going on,

556
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:11,040
Speaker 1: which the university in my opinion, also outrageously did nothing

557
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:15,359
Speaker 1: about for you know, for too long. So Rockman took

558
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:17,879
Speaker 1: his stand on that, and he really put his foot

559
00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:20,400
Speaker 1: down and he tried to clean up that kind of

560
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,719
Speaker 1: thing and said, we're not going to have universities put

561
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,919
Speaker 1: out statements like that anymore. And so I liked that.

562
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:29,000
Speaker 1: I will tell you, I think he was better than

563
00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:32,440
Speaker 1: some of the leftists they had in the past. He

564
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:34,759
Speaker 1: was kind of the Tommy Thompson mold, though, you know,

565
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 1: where there was some stuff he did that I liked,

566
00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:41,000
Speaker 1: and there were other things, you know, he you know,

567
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:43,759
Speaker 1: I wished he had taken a stronger stand on or

568
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,120
Speaker 1: I felt like he came down on the wrong side

569
00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:48,600
Speaker 1: of and I think that's because he came out of

570
00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:51,200
Speaker 1: the business world, and that part's good. But then he ran,

571
00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:54,840
Speaker 1: you know, head on into the evers appointees to control

572
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:58,720
Speaker 1: the Board of Regents, and it's sort of an untenable position,

573
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:01,840
Speaker 1: and so that he's China Gate all this. So, so

574
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,799
Speaker 1: I liked some things, I didn't like others, and I'm

575
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 1: gonna kind of wait and see what the reasons are here.

576
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:10,000
Speaker 1: But I one hundred percent believe that Jay Rothman has

577
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:11,480
Speaker 1: a right to know what they are and I think

578
00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 1: the public does too. All right, stay tuned, gotta take

579
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:23,520
Speaker 1: a break. Good after New Milwaukee. This is Jessica McBride

580
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 1: of Wisconsin RightNow dot Com filling in for Dan O'Donnell.

581
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:33,759
Speaker 1: Welcome to the show if you're just joining us. So,

582
00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:38,319
Speaker 1: I want to dive right into a breaking story that's

583
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:41,880
Speaker 1: all over the news in Wisconsin and nationally. It's breaking

584
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:51,239
Speaker 1: nationally on this man, Sala Sarsour. He is the president

585
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:55,719
Speaker 1: of the Islamic Society of Milwaukee. And you know, if

586
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 1: you go on any TV news site in Milwaukee, go

587
00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:01,520
Speaker 1: on the Milwaukee Journals Sentinel, and like I said, it's

588
00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:08,080
Speaker 1: spreading nationally. You see these huge stories about the fact

589
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:13,480
Speaker 1: that he was detained by ICE. He is in ICE

590
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 1: custody and predictably, predictably, even though they know very little,

591
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 1: frankly about what the government has against mister car sor

592
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:33,880
Speaker 1: the left, they are lining up. Liberal officials are lining

593
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:38,879
Speaker 1: up in outrage over this, immediately instinctual outrage, over the

594
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:47,200
Speaker 1: top outrage. Now the media, the media are acting as

595
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:53,240
Speaker 1: stenographers of outraged liberal politicians. Isn't it funny how that works.

596
00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:58,680
Speaker 1: Being a stenographer is not being a journalist. What I

597
00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:02,120
Speaker 1: mean by that, Simply copying and pasting the press release

598
00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:07,480
Speaker 1: of Chris Larsen or Gwen Moore or Mendela Barnes is

599
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:13,640
Speaker 1: not being a journalist. So I'm gonna say right out

600
00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:18,360
Speaker 1: of the gate, the media here, the Milwaukee media, are

601
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:22,240
Speaker 1: being very negligent, honestly, and how they're covering this story.

602
00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:29,480
Speaker 1: On the other hand, on the other hand, I don't

603
00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:34,160
Speaker 1: think ICE is doing a great job either when it

604
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:41,160
Speaker 1: comes to the initial public relations here. This is a

605
00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:47,000
Speaker 1: man who has apparently been in this country for thirty

606
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:50,200
Speaker 1: two years. He owns a bunch of furniture stores in

607
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:53,880
Speaker 1: the Milwaukee area, like I said, he's president of the

608
00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 1: Islamic Society of Milwaukee. As a bunch of kids. The

609
00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:02,560
Speaker 1: mosque claims that he's a lawful, legal resident. That's how

610
00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:05,760
Speaker 1: they described it. He's a they say he's a legal resident.

611
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:11,640
Speaker 1: So this is the kind of case, frankly that if

612
00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:13,920
Speaker 1: I were advising Ice, I would say, you need to

613
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:18,360
Speaker 1: get out front on this kind of of a detention. Right, Okay,

614
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:22,040
Speaker 1: So it's predictable what the liberal media will do in

615
00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:23,960
Speaker 1: response to this. They're going to turn him into the

616
00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:27,319
Speaker 1: quintessential Maryland man, right, I mean, I guess in this case,

617
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:32,200
Speaker 1: Wisconsin man, father of six, furniture store owner, et cetera.

618
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:38,440
Speaker 1: Your Ice, you've detained the man. He's apparently in custody

619
00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:41,760
Speaker 1: in Indiana or something like that. He was apparently pulled

620
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:45,040
Speaker 1: over and taken into custody by a bunch of agents.

621
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:48,360
Speaker 1: Make the case to the public, like put out your narrative.

622
00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:53,080
Speaker 1: And I find it frustrating that they're not, because, in fairness,

623
00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:56,279
Speaker 1: then to the liberal media, they're being stenographers because they're

624
00:42:56,280 --> 00:43:00,239
Speaker 1: not getting ICE's side. And I understand the first stra

625
00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:03,960
Speaker 1: that Ice has, you know, because their side gets twisted

626
00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:07,080
Speaker 1: all the time by the elite media. But you know,

627
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:10,239
Speaker 1: as a journalist, what are you supposed to do? You're

628
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:13,319
Speaker 1: not getting ice aside? Where do you go to get that?

629
00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:13,800
Speaker 2: Okay?

630
00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:21,120
Speaker 1: So I wrote ice PR. I don't sugarcoat things. So

631
00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:23,319
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be really blunt with you all and say

632
00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:26,960
Speaker 1: when I used to write ice PR during the Biden administration,

633
00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:31,160
Speaker 1: believe it or not, they responded within twenty four hours.

634
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:33,120
Speaker 1: I guess it was the only thing that they managed

635
00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:36,239
Speaker 1: to do. Meanwhile, I guess they weren't busy because they

636
00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:39,759
Speaker 1: were letting every illegal immigrant flood into the country at

637
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:44,080
Speaker 1: that point in time. I'm only exaggerating slightly with that hyperbole,

638
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:46,320
Speaker 1: So I guess they had more time on their hands

639
00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:48,960
Speaker 1: to respond to reporters like me. But I would write

640
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:51,400
Speaker 1: them and ask them a basic question about a case

641
00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:55,000
Speaker 1: in fairness, they'd get back to me really fast, within

642
00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:57,480
Speaker 1: twenty four hours. I can never get a response on

643
00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:02,120
Speaker 1: anything from ice PR these days, and it's it's frustrating.

644
00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:04,719
Speaker 1: So I wrote them and said, what's your side, Like,

645
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:09,080
Speaker 1: what what case do you have against this man? I

646
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:11,799
Speaker 1: am wise enough and old enough to know that there

647
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,319
Speaker 1: is more to the story than I'm being told by

648
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:19,320
Speaker 1: the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and the Islamic Society of Milwaukee

649
00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:25,279
Speaker 1: and Chris Larson, okay, you know, and and frankly, I

650
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:30,440
Speaker 1: found out more about this guy from a simple, deep

651
00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:33,480
Speaker 1: dive Google search, which I'll talk to you about in

652
00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:36,160
Speaker 1: a minute. Then I read in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

653
00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:39,319
Speaker 1: Funny how that works too. Okay, but I'd like to

654
00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:42,520
Speaker 1: hear from Ice. I'd like to hear from Ice, and

655
00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:48,239
Speaker 1: they're not talking. So there is that. What I want

656
00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:50,480
Speaker 1: to tell you though, that I learned from a very

657
00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:53,880
Speaker 1: he's simple again Google search. Okay. So in one of

658
00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:58,440
Speaker 1: the stories it said that this man, Salasar Sore is

659
00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:00,680
Speaker 1: on the board, he was a boardman member of a

660
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:06,839
Speaker 1: group called American Muslims for Palestine. So very credible news

661
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:09,560
Speaker 1: story said he was a board member, and I found other,

662
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:13,080
Speaker 1: you know, documentation of that. So let me take a

663
00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:16,480
Speaker 1: few minutes to tell you what the Milwauki media are not,

664
00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:21,240
Speaker 1: which is the background of this group, American Muslims for Palestine,

665
00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:24,799
Speaker 1: that this man is allegedly a board member of. First

666
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:27,879
Speaker 1: of all, a Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton. We all

667
00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:32,200
Speaker 1: know he's a conservative. He said in an amicus brief

668
00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:37,440
Speaker 1: that this organization had declared it was part of something

669
00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:43,880
Speaker 1: called Unity into Fada under Hamas's unified command. That's in

670
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:50,520
Speaker 1: quotes unified command after October seventh. Now the group denies

671
00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:53,520
Speaker 1: it supports Amas, of course, you know, it denies all

672
00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:57,840
Speaker 1: of this kind of stuff. But there's more American Muslims

673
00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 1: for Palestine. In twenty twenty four, House Committee an Oversight

674
00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:07,160
Speaker 1: and Accountability launched an investigation into the group. It's called

675
00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:12,080
Speaker 1: AMP shorthand we can say AMP into AMPS ties to HAMAS, which,

676
00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:15,440
Speaker 1: of course we all know this is a US designated

677
00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:21,400
Speaker 1: foreign terrorist organization A. Critics also allege that AMP is

678
00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:26,960
Speaker 1: a successor to the Islamic Association of Palestine and is

679
00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:31,560
Speaker 1: tied allegedly to the Holy Land Foundation. Both were shut

680
00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:38,640
Speaker 1: down for allegedly funding Hamas. There's more. The Virginia Attorney

681
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:44,360
Speaker 1: General investigated AMP for benefiting or providing support allegedly to

682
00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:51,520
Speaker 1: terrorist organizations. The group is involved in civil lawsuits accusing

683
00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:55,000
Speaker 1: it of providing support to Hamas, which again it denies.

684
00:46:57,400 --> 00:47:00,000
Speaker 1: It was described in one document that there's a resistance

685
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:08,160
Speaker 1: narrative put forth by this organization allegedly involved in anti

686
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:13,920
Speaker 1: Israel protests and all of that kind of rhetoric and

687
00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:19,880
Speaker 1: the demonstrations. AMP responds, No, we're funded by US donations.

688
00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:23,600
Speaker 1: We're not linked to Hamas. We're just doing pro Palestinian

689
00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:30,360
Speaker 1: human rights activism. You all know the story. I found

690
00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:35,319
Speaker 1: this in a few minutes simply by googling the name

691
00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:39,960
Speaker 1: of the organization that this man is on the board of.

692
00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:45,200
Speaker 1: I think that is relevant information. Now do I know

693
00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:52,920
Speaker 1: if his position with this organization, his ties to this organization,

694
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:55,799
Speaker 1: his alleged ties, we can say, do I know that

695
00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:58,560
Speaker 1: that is the reason that ICE is trying to kick

696
00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:00,880
Speaker 1: him out of the country or has detained him. No,

697
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:04,400
Speaker 1: I do not know that, because, as I stated a

698
00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:07,560
Speaker 1: few minutes ago, ICE is not talking, They're not giving

699
00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:12,319
Speaker 1: us their side. But I think it's important if you're

700
00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:16,319
Speaker 1: a news reporter and you're reporting this man's on the

701
00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:19,560
Speaker 1: board of the American Muslims for Palestine, that you take

702
00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:22,319
Speaker 1: a minute and figure out what is that group and

703
00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:24,760
Speaker 1: what has it been accused of the past of doing,

704
00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:29,560
Speaker 1: and give us a sort of a broader understanding of

705
00:48:29,600 --> 00:48:35,880
Speaker 1: what this man is linked to. I mean, please, media,

706
00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:40,800
Speaker 1: can you just stop pasting press releases from Gwen Moore?

707
00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:46,120
Speaker 1: And is that what journalism is? These days Gwen Moore's

708
00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:50,560
Speaker 1: press release is now the news story. I mean, come on,

709
00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:55,680
Speaker 1: come on, And then it came out and this but

710
00:48:55,800 --> 00:49:00,440
Speaker 1: this is again coming from the mosque executive director, coming

711
00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:04,959
Speaker 1: from an Islamic leader to the Market Journal Sentinel who

712
00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:08,880
Speaker 1: is saying, while there was a situation where this man

713
00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:14,640
Speaker 1: was arrested, but they're saying as a teenager in the

714
00:49:14,640 --> 00:49:19,840
Speaker 1: West Bank, and that documents filed by ISIS and the

715
00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:23,120
Speaker 1: government are alleging that this arrest and I guess it

716
00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:27,759
Speaker 1: was in front of a military tribunal or something that

717
00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:30,719
Speaker 1: the government is trying to use that to allege that

718
00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:35,799
Speaker 1: he provided material support for extremists, which he denies. So

719
00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:38,879
Speaker 1: there is an arrest that occurred in the West Bank.

720
00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:46,399
Speaker 1: Even his supporters are acknowledging that. So I have concerns

721
00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:52,799
Speaker 1: about what you know, I have concerns about the situation,

722
00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:57,600
Speaker 1: but not exactly in the direction of you know, Chris

723
00:49:57,719 --> 00:50:02,279
Speaker 1: Larson and Mendela Barnes. Now, knowing all of those details

724
00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:05,600
Speaker 1: I just gave you, let me read to you Mendela

725
00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:12,400
Speaker 1: Barnes frankly outrageous rush to judgment statement about the arrest

726
00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:18,280
Speaker 1: of Sala Sarsour. You'll remember Mendela Barnes has a habit

727
00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:22,960
Speaker 1: of rushing to judgment against law enforcement. In particular, we

728
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:29,160
Speaker 1: all remember is incredibly inciting posts during the Kenosha riots

729
00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:33,640
Speaker 1: leading up to them, where he rushed to judgment against

730
00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:37,439
Speaker 1: police in Kenosha and what I thought was a very

731
00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:41,800
Speaker 1: inciting and frankly dangerous way. And of course, the officer

732
00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:44,400
Speaker 1: who shot Jacob Blake, we all know this was eventually

733
00:50:45,120 --> 00:50:50,480
Speaker 1: exonerated by even the Democratic District Attorney then of Kenosha

734
00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:54,880
Speaker 1: and our a Wall Attorney General, Liberal Josh Call like

735
00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:57,719
Speaker 1: they couldn't even make the case against the cop. But

736
00:50:57,840 --> 00:51:00,480
Speaker 1: rather than waiting for all of the facts to come in,

737
00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:05,920
Speaker 1: Mendela Barnes, then Lieutenant Governor and his cohort evers, they

738
00:51:06,040 --> 00:51:09,600
Speaker 1: rushed out right and condemned and the police were versely

739
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:13,239
Speaker 1: killing people in Kenosha, and you know, black men were

740
00:51:13,280 --> 00:51:18,280
Speaker 1: being killed, and just this inciting, outrageous language. And he's

741
00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:22,719
Speaker 1: added again, so his headline is Mendela Barnes on the

742
00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:26,279
Speaker 1: unlawful arrest of salas Arhars. So he's already judged this

743
00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:29,200
Speaker 1: is unlawful, even though we don't even fully know ICE's side.

744
00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:31,720
Speaker 1: But oh, we don't need to wait for that. According

745
00:51:31,719 --> 00:51:35,560
Speaker 1: to Mendela Barnes, he says, it's inexcusable. The arrest of

746
00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:41,759
Speaker 1: Salah Sarsoura is inexcusable. The Trump administration in Ice to

747
00:51:41,840 --> 00:51:44,960
Speaker 1: hunt on a legal resident in Milwaukee, ripping him away

748
00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:47,440
Speaker 1: from his wife, children in the communities, lived him for

749
00:51:47,440 --> 00:51:51,680
Speaker 1: over thirty two years without an explanation. Nothing about Trump's

750
00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:56,560
Speaker 1: rogue police force makes us safer. Oh really nothing, nothing,

751
00:51:56,920 --> 00:52:03,120
Speaker 1: Nothing makes us safer to have ICE rounding up criminal

752
00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:05,359
Speaker 1: illegals and getting them out of this country. And I'm

753
00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:08,719
Speaker 1: not referring to Solis ar sore with that statement, Okay,

754
00:52:08,719 --> 00:52:10,759
Speaker 1: even though there is this arrest from when he was

755
00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:14,360
Speaker 1: a teen. But you know what is ICE doing in

756
00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:19,120
Speaker 1: this country. They are in many many cases, they're rounding

757
00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:22,560
Speaker 1: up criminal illegals and getting them out of this country.

758
00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:24,960
Speaker 1: And when we come back in a second, I'm going

759
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:26,480
Speaker 1: to go on a break in a second, and when

760
00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:28,319
Speaker 1: we come back from that, I'm going to give you

761
00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:32,719
Speaker 1: another example that just happened in Wisconsin. But the point

762
00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:37,560
Speaker 1: is for Mendela Barnes, who say nothing nothing about Trumps

763
00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:41,640
Speaker 1: and then he disparages law enforcement, rogue police force makes

764
00:52:41,680 --> 00:52:47,160
Speaker 1: us safer it's just an absolutely pathetic, outrageous, a you know,

765
00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:50,799
Speaker 1: absolute that is so easily proven false. But that's who

766
00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:54,760
Speaker 1: Mendela Barnes is. Well, what's the famous line? I forgot

767
00:52:54,760 --> 00:52:58,080
Speaker 1: who said it? Maya Angelo or something who said, when

768
00:52:58,120 --> 00:53:00,080
Speaker 1: someone tells you who they are the first time, I

769
00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:04,040
Speaker 1: believe them. We know who Mandela Barnes is. So I

770
00:53:04,120 --> 00:53:07,600
Speaker 1: guess I don't know why I'm even you know, raging

771
00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:10,320
Speaker 1: here because we know who this man is. He's proven

772
00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:12,719
Speaker 1: this time and again. Well, anyway, he went on and

773
00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:16,320
Speaker 1: he said, this rogue agency is trampling on our rights

774
00:53:16,440 --> 00:53:20,360
Speaker 1: all to serve as a wanna be dictator. Seriously, this

775
00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:23,600
Speaker 1: is a language from someone who wants to be Wisconsin governor,

776
00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:27,640
Speaker 1: and we're supposed to take him seriously. He said, I

777
00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:30,120
Speaker 1: won't stay silent when it happens. I stand with the

778
00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:33,440
Speaker 1: people in Wisconsin to demand mister Sarsara's return swiftly to

779
00:53:33,480 --> 00:53:36,520
Speaker 1: his family and ICE is held accountable for their lawless

780
00:53:36,560 --> 00:53:41,640
Speaker 1: attacks on wisconsinights. That's really inciting dangerous rhetoric. I mean

781
00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:46,080
Speaker 1: the heightened emotion in those words before we even know

782
00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:53,040
Speaker 1: one hundred percent why ICE has detained Sarsor. I mean

783
00:53:53,080 --> 00:54:02,120
Speaker 1: it's just absolutely unacceptable, reckless rhetoric from Mendela Barnes, who

784
00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:06,680
Speaker 1: is almost the Democrat front runner, by the way, which

785
00:54:06,719 --> 00:54:10,520
Speaker 1: is another story, but I mean, you all know that

786
00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:17,000
Speaker 1: the last Marquette pol had a socialist, basically almost a communist,

787
00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:22,880
Speaker 1: Francesca Hong in first place, and right behind her Mendela Barnes,

788
00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:27,719
Speaker 1: who's obviously being you know, lifted by his lingering name

789
00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:30,719
Speaker 1: id from when he lost in the Senate race to

790
00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:33,960
Speaker 1: Ron Johnson because he was a lieutenant governor. And I

791
00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:38,359
Speaker 1: do know there are some moderate, you know, rational Democrats,

792
00:54:38,440 --> 00:54:41,920
Speaker 1: they do still exist out there who are having heartburn

793
00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:44,760
Speaker 1: and reaching for the antacids at the idea of either

794
00:54:44,840 --> 00:54:49,640
Speaker 1: Hong or Barnes as a Democrat nominee for governor. Either

795
00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:53,160
Speaker 1: one would be the best case scenario, frankly for Tom Tiffany.

796
00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:57,760
Speaker 1: And this, this incredibly you know, outrageous and reckless statement

797
00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:01,600
Speaker 1: put out by Barnes today in this case is another

798
00:55:01,680 --> 00:55:05,239
Speaker 1: example of why it's another example of why. So you

799
00:55:05,239 --> 00:55:09,359
Speaker 1: know what, I'm going to suggest that everybody take a

800
00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:14,520
Speaker 1: deep breath, calm down, like sit in a circle and

801
00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:20,120
Speaker 1: ham kumbayar whatever you do to relax, take a chill pill,

802
00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:23,400
Speaker 1: and let's wait for the facts to come in on

803
00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:31,800
Speaker 1: salasarsor before everyone jumps off a collective left wing cliff. Okay,

804
00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:36,920
Speaker 1: I've already presented more information you know, on his on

805
00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:40,120
Speaker 1: the group he's tied to. Then you'll read in any

806
00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:46,080
Speaker 1: of the Milwaukee media. Okay, done with that rant. It

807
00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:50,840
Speaker 1: really I do not like Russias to judgment against law enforcement,

808
00:55:51,560 --> 00:55:55,319
Speaker 1: and I really do not like the cheap narratives on

809
00:55:55,360 --> 00:56:00,600
Speaker 1: the left against ICE and the immigration you know issue.

810
00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:05,200
Speaker 1: And it's a good time to remind everybody that every

811
00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:10,840
Speaker 1: single Democrat candidate for governor in Wisconsin doesn't even want

812
00:56:11,200 --> 00:56:15,520
Speaker 1: ICE to be able to put detainer holds on people

813
00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:19,839
Speaker 1: accused of very serious violent crimes in Wisconsin jails. They

814
00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:23,560
Speaker 1: have all taken a position against the detainers. That is

815
00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:28,120
Speaker 1: how extreme the liberal narratives are in Wisconsin these days

816
00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:32,760
Speaker 1: on immigration. All right, stay tuned, will be right back,

817
00:56:34,760 --> 00:56:37,000
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the show. Just Co McBride here for

818
00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:40,480
Speaker 1: Dan O'Donnell. So we're gonna stick with the topic briefly

819
00:56:40,560 --> 00:56:43,960
Speaker 1: of illegal immigration. Kind of like to keep like things

820
00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:48,200
Speaker 1: with like things, apples with apples, oranges oranges. So Eric

821
00:56:48,239 --> 00:56:56,120
Speaker 1: Tony phenomenally effective. Fondolace County district attorney running for Attorney General.

822
00:56:57,520 --> 00:57:01,360
Speaker 1: He announced in a pressure and I have the criminal

823
00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:07,399
Speaker 1: complaint that he has criminally charged an illegal immigrant from

824
00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:16,600
Speaker 1: Nicaragua in a brutal stabbing case in Fondelette County. I

825
00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:20,080
Speaker 1: think it's really important by the way that district attorneys

826
00:57:20,160 --> 00:57:23,640
Speaker 1: and police chiefs and sheriffs when there's a heinous crime

827
00:57:23,640 --> 00:57:26,560
Speaker 1: that happens and they put out a press release on it,

828
00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:31,120
Speaker 1: that they tell us if they know the person's here legally,

829
00:57:32,920 --> 00:57:36,280
Speaker 1: because it is a lot harder as a journalist to

830
00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:42,080
Speaker 1: find out a person's immigration status than you think now

831
00:57:42,120 --> 00:57:45,080
Speaker 1: if there's an ICE detainer hold on them in the

832
00:57:45,160 --> 00:57:49,240
Speaker 1: jail and so ICE is found out that they're in

833
00:57:49,280 --> 00:57:52,600
Speaker 1: the jail and the sheriff is you know, honored the

834
00:57:52,640 --> 00:57:55,600
Speaker 1: ICE detainer, which doesn't always happen, especially if it's in

835
00:57:55,680 --> 00:58:00,120
Speaker 1: Dane County or Milwaukee County, a reporter can file and

836
00:58:00,200 --> 00:58:05,280
Speaker 1: open records request to get that detainer hold. A few jails,

837
00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:07,840
Speaker 1: not very many, but a few jails in Wisconsin they

838
00:58:07,880 --> 00:58:12,280
Speaker 1: do list if there's a detainer on their online databases

839
00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:14,520
Speaker 1: where you can search, you know, their inmate lists and

840
00:58:14,560 --> 00:58:18,840
Speaker 1: their jails. That's very helpful. A few districutories, a few

841
00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:22,440
Speaker 1: police chiefs and sheriffs, they'll tell the public and the media,

842
00:58:22,840 --> 00:58:26,080
Speaker 1: you know, if they know the immigration status, and it's

843
00:58:26,120 --> 00:58:31,200
Speaker 1: extremely useful and quite honestly, then it ends up in

844
00:58:31,240 --> 00:58:34,600
Speaker 1: all the news stories. Because we dis established in the

845
00:58:34,640 --> 00:58:37,360
Speaker 1: previous half hour of the show that the media and

846
00:58:37,400 --> 00:58:41,120
Speaker 1: the state are basically stenographers of press releases. Well, you

847
00:58:41,120 --> 00:58:43,560
Speaker 1: know the good news there is they will repeat like

848
00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:46,320
Speaker 1: the press release of saying Eric Tony too. So if

849
00:58:46,320 --> 00:58:49,320
Speaker 1: there's any district attorney, any police chief, any sheriff listening

850
00:58:49,360 --> 00:58:52,520
Speaker 1: to this show, please please tell us in your press

851
00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:55,480
Speaker 1: releases or your statements on social media or whatever, when

852
00:58:55,480 --> 00:58:58,280
Speaker 1: you make an arrest or at charge, you know about

853
00:58:58,320 --> 00:59:02,200
Speaker 1: the person's immigration status. So District Attorney Tony did that.

854
00:59:02,520 --> 00:59:06,840
Speaker 1: And so the man's name is Luis Antonio Savilla Benavisus.

855
00:59:07,720 --> 00:59:12,600
Speaker 1: He is now charged with attempted first degree intentional homicide, mayhem,

856
00:59:12,960 --> 00:59:18,320
Speaker 1: aggravated battery, and a dangerous weapon enhancer. And again, I

857
00:59:18,360 --> 00:59:23,560
Speaker 1: think it is a good time to once again remind

858
00:59:23,560 --> 00:59:26,040
Speaker 1: everybody what I said a few minutes ago, which is

859
00:59:26,080 --> 00:59:30,280
Speaker 1: that all of the Democrat candidates for governor. Every single

860
00:59:30,760 --> 00:59:36,640
Speaker 1: last one of them opposes, opposes IC detainers being honored

861
00:59:36,680 --> 00:59:42,200
Speaker 1: in Wisconsin jails, even when it comes to someone accused

862
00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:46,960
Speaker 1: of violent offenses as this man is. That's how extreme

863
00:59:47,520 --> 00:59:51,960
Speaker 1: the Democrat candidates for governor are. The only one that

864
00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:55,480
Speaker 1: deviated at all was Sarah Rodriguez, the Lieutenant governor, who

865
00:59:55,480 --> 00:59:59,440
Speaker 1: briefly said in a TV interview she was for detainers

866
00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:02,880
Speaker 1: when it ca to criminals. I mean they relate to

867
01:00:02,960 --> 01:00:06,320
Speaker 1: criminals because they're put on people in jails. And then

868
01:00:06,360 --> 01:00:08,280
Speaker 1: she walked it back. She got a little bit of

869
01:00:08,320 --> 01:00:12,880
Speaker 1: criticism and folded like an accordion, you know, a couple

870
01:00:12,960 --> 01:00:15,920
Speaker 1: hours later whatever, and so, oh, I didn't mean to

871
01:00:15,960 --> 01:00:23,760
Speaker 1: say that, I'm actually against detaining criminals in jails. Two okay, okay, Sarah. Anyway,

872
01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:31,040
Speaker 1: the criminal complaint accuses this man, this illegal immigrant, of

873
01:00:31,640 --> 01:00:38,520
Speaker 1: stabbing his mother twenty six times. She had three holes.

874
01:00:38,520 --> 01:00:41,040
Speaker 1: I'm sorry for the graphic nature here, but to understand

875
01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:43,720
Speaker 1: how bad this was, she had three holes in her

876
01:00:43,760 --> 01:00:49,520
Speaker 1: intestine from this attack, requiring surgery. There was alcohol involved,

877
01:00:50,080 --> 01:00:55,680
Speaker 1: and what provoked this man, well, he was told to

878
01:00:55,720 --> 01:01:00,080
Speaker 1: turn down the music. This so enraged and that he

879
01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:02,880
Speaker 1: allegedly hit his mother, threw her to the ground, and

880
01:01:03,080 --> 01:01:10,240
Speaker 1: stabbed her brutally twenty six times. Now, Eric Toney said

881
01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:15,840
Speaker 1: illegal immigration continues to present serious challenges for law enforcement

882
01:01:15,920 --> 01:01:22,840
Speaker 1: and communities around Wisconsin, with Fondilac County recently prosecuting other

883
01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:29,800
Speaker 1: illegal migrants for human trafficking, sexual assault, and attempted homicide.

884
01:01:29,880 --> 01:01:33,680
Speaker 1: And I would say good for Da Eric Tony for

885
01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:38,240
Speaker 1: shedding light on this because, like I said, if he

886
01:01:38,320 --> 01:01:41,400
Speaker 1: hadn't revealed that angle in his press release, it wouldn't

887
01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:44,960
Speaker 1: have gotten in any of the stories, and Louis Benavizas

888
01:01:45,520 --> 01:01:51,920
Speaker 1: would have been turned into a Fondilac man. A Fondilac man.

889
01:01:52,080 --> 01:01:53,920
Speaker 1: By the way, I need to go on a slight

890
01:01:53,960 --> 01:01:58,680
Speaker 1: tangent here, but where is Attorney General Josh Call? Do

891
01:01:58,720 --> 01:02:02,480
Speaker 1: we have an Attorney general the state? I mean, I'm

892
01:02:02,520 --> 01:02:05,160
Speaker 1: at the point where I think we should put probably

893
01:02:05,160 --> 01:02:09,360
Speaker 1: put an amber alert on Josh Call. Actually scratched that.

894
01:02:09,480 --> 01:02:15,000
Speaker 1: Let's put a silver alert on Josh Call. Seriously, is

895
01:02:15,040 --> 01:02:19,400
Speaker 1: he even running a campaign? Does he exist? I know

896
01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:21,840
Speaker 1: someone I can't name who deals with him in the

897
01:02:21,880 --> 01:02:25,120
Speaker 1: public square, and it's a public official who told me

898
01:02:25,800 --> 01:02:29,120
Speaker 1: that people even on the Democrat side, they're frustrated with him.

899
01:02:29,120 --> 01:02:32,000
Speaker 1: They can never find him. He's never around. Then when

900
01:02:32,040 --> 01:02:34,760
Speaker 1: he goes on zoom calls, he always keeps his video off,

901
01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:39,280
Speaker 1: according to this person, and so even Democrats are frustrated

902
01:02:39,320 --> 01:02:41,120
Speaker 1: with him. And you could see that play out where

903
01:02:41,160 --> 01:02:44,480
Speaker 1: he briefly flirted with running for governor and then just

904
01:02:44,520 --> 01:02:48,840
Speaker 1: immediately dropped that because nobody really wanted him to, even

905
01:02:48,840 --> 01:02:52,200
Speaker 1: though he's the obvious guy to do it. He's the

906
01:02:52,200 --> 01:02:57,400
Speaker 1: sitting attorney general. I looked at his social media a

907
01:02:57,400 --> 01:03:01,960
Speaker 1: couple days ago and he hadn't updated his campaign social

908
01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:07,720
Speaker 1: media since November. It's just weird. And when Eric Tony

909
01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:11,440
Speaker 1: announced that he was running for attorney general, Josh Call

910
01:03:11,480 --> 01:03:15,000
Speaker 1: didn't even say anything like there wasn't even a responding quote.

911
01:03:15,160 --> 01:03:18,440
Speaker 1: So I'm of the belief we don't have an attorney general.

912
01:03:18,760 --> 01:03:23,120
Speaker 1: I mean, he's certainly not managing the crime lab that's

913
01:03:23,160 --> 01:03:29,120
Speaker 1: falling apart. He's certainly not handling open records requests. I

914
01:03:29,160 --> 01:03:31,320
Speaker 1: looked up that list and there was a request pending

915
01:03:31,360 --> 01:03:33,560
Speaker 1: from twenty twenty one. He's supposed to be the top

916
01:03:33,640 --> 01:03:37,160
Speaker 1: enforcer of state open records lass. It's a sour spot

917
01:03:37,160 --> 01:03:39,320
Speaker 1: with me because he delayed one of our open records

918
01:03:39,360 --> 01:03:43,640
Speaker 1: requests at Wisconsin right now for two yours almost. I

919
01:03:43,640 --> 01:03:46,640
Speaker 1: think it was one point five to be fair, that's

920
01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:52,240
Speaker 1: a really ridiculous delay. We know from a key tribal

921
01:03:52,320 --> 01:03:59,000
Speaker 1: leader that Josh Call has is not staffing narcotics investigators

922
01:03:59,040 --> 01:04:02,240
Speaker 1: in northern wiscon in his office in the northern tier

923
01:04:02,280 --> 01:04:04,720
Speaker 1: of the stage. She said, it's costing lives. We have

924
01:04:04,760 --> 01:04:08,840
Speaker 1: a fentanyl crisis and there aren't narcotics investigators for DOJ

925
01:04:09,080 --> 01:04:14,600
Speaker 1: up here. So where is Josh call I mean, you know,

926
01:04:14,680 --> 01:04:16,400
Speaker 1: all he does. He pokes his head out of the

927
01:04:16,440 --> 01:04:21,520
Speaker 1: prairie dog hole to go after Jim troopis Donald Trump's

928
01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:26,080
Speaker 1: lawyer with law fair try to destroy his life and

929
01:04:26,640 --> 01:04:30,080
Speaker 1: you know, criminalizing being an attorney with the legal theory,

930
01:04:30,920 --> 01:04:33,600
Speaker 1: and he pokes his head out now and then to

931
01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:40,040
Speaker 1: file lawsuits against Trump. So anyway, all right, when we

932
01:04:40,080 --> 01:04:41,840
Speaker 1: come back, I'm gonna switch it up and I have

933
01:04:41,920 --> 01:04:45,840
Speaker 1: another funny sequence of audio for you to kind of

934
01:04:46,000 --> 01:04:50,480
Speaker 1: lighten up the day. Stay tuned, Welcome back to the

935
01:04:50,560 --> 01:04:54,760
Speaker 1: Dan o'donald Show. Just Comicbride here filling in for Dan Okay. So,

936
01:04:54,840 --> 01:04:57,840
Speaker 1: as promised, I have some more entertaining audio for you.

937
01:04:57,960 --> 01:05:02,960
Speaker 1: We absolutely must play the gender equity card audio. I

938
01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:04,840
Speaker 1: know some of you have seen this already because you're

939
01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:07,800
Speaker 1: on AX, so this was all over AX. But some

940
01:05:07,880 --> 01:05:12,320
Speaker 1: of you probably have not heard this. This is priceless.

941
01:05:12,760 --> 01:05:16,720
Speaker 1: To set it up, It is a person, a person

942
01:05:17,640 --> 01:05:22,600
Speaker 1: from the New Democrat Party of Canada, and they had

943
01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:27,840
Speaker 1: this convention whatever, okay, and they gave out cards they

944
01:05:27,880 --> 01:05:31,400
Speaker 1: were calling them gender equity cards to people so they

945
01:05:31,400 --> 01:05:36,520
Speaker 1: could jump in line, like you can't make this stuff up.

946
01:05:37,400 --> 01:05:43,160
Speaker 1: They were giving out cards for gender race, if you

947
01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:50,320
Speaker 1: were LGBTQ indigenous, all of these different things. Is you

948
01:05:50,400 --> 01:05:52,240
Speaker 1: got a pink car, you get a yellow card, you

949
01:05:52,240 --> 01:05:56,120
Speaker 1: could get a green card. Who would be left? I

950
01:05:56,120 --> 01:05:59,600
Speaker 1: guess white guys like my producer, he's stuck at the

951
01:05:59,640 --> 01:06:02,160
Speaker 1: end of the line. Is mean, But like, how do

952
01:06:02,200 --> 01:06:06,800
Speaker 1: you decide if the LGBTQ Indigenous person gets to go

953
01:06:07,440 --> 01:06:13,360
Speaker 1: in front of the non binary black person who decides that?

954
01:06:13,400 --> 01:06:16,400
Speaker 1: What if you have three cards, do you get to

955
01:06:16,440 --> 01:06:21,040
Speaker 1: go first? You think if you have if you're an

956
01:06:21,240 --> 01:06:27,000
Speaker 1: LGBTQ indigenous, maybe you're like half indigenous, half black and

957
01:06:27,040 --> 01:06:32,400
Speaker 1: you're LGBTQ, do you get to go first because you

958
01:06:32,440 --> 01:06:37,600
Speaker 1: have three cards. Yeah, and you know what, where do

959
01:06:37,680 --> 01:06:40,960
Speaker 1: I get a card? I want a gender card. I

960
01:06:41,040 --> 01:06:43,880
Speaker 1: want my gender card. I want to slap that down

961
01:06:44,640 --> 01:06:47,680
Speaker 1: and go in front of the line. No, I'm just kidding.

962
01:06:47,960 --> 01:06:50,240
Speaker 1: I would turn down such an equity card. I don't

963
01:06:50,280 --> 01:06:55,080
Speaker 1: need an equity card to be listened to. Okay, anyway,

964
01:06:55,160 --> 01:06:59,080
Speaker 1: let's listen to audio clip number one. It is super crazy.

965
01:07:00,160 --> 01:07:02,800
Speaker 9: There's a point of privilege on microphone one. Then we'll

966
01:07:02,800 --> 01:07:04,800
Speaker 9: go to microphone three. Go ahead, delegate.

967
01:07:05,520 --> 01:07:08,600
Speaker 1: Yes, hello, I was standing here with my gender equity

968
01:07:08,680 --> 01:07:10,640
Speaker 1: card before you called on the previous speaker.

969
01:07:11,360 --> 01:07:12,360
Speaker 7: That's my point of privilege.

970
01:07:12,400 --> 01:07:12,840
Speaker 1: I would like to her.

971
01:07:12,960 --> 01:07:15,600
Speaker 9: I will explain the speaking order which is fixed that

972
01:07:15,680 --> 01:07:18,760
Speaker 9: I cannot amend, which is the pro con rotation. You

973
01:07:18,800 --> 01:07:21,120
Speaker 9: can move yourself up a line that you're standing on.

974
01:07:21,360 --> 01:07:26,720
Speaker 9: I am pro, and I was we went you went pro.

975
01:07:27,040 --> 01:07:30,080
Speaker 9: We went pro con pro, and my plan was to

976
01:07:30,080 --> 01:07:33,360
Speaker 9: go con. The speaker at Conwake three also has a

977
01:07:33,400 --> 01:07:34,080
Speaker 9: speaking card.

978
01:07:34,480 --> 01:07:39,520
Speaker 10: Yesterday, this card was used in an inappropriate manner, and

979
01:07:39,560 --> 01:07:43,320
Speaker 10: while I understand in Ontario we know this is equity,

980
01:07:43,400 --> 01:07:46,960
Speaker 10: even if that this was also used inappropriate in terms

981
01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:50,280
Speaker 10: of gender. I want everyone to be mindful that these

982
01:07:50,400 --> 01:07:54,440
Speaker 10: cards for individuals like myself who identify as a black

983
01:07:54,520 --> 01:07:58,160
Speaker 10: woman have no value outside of this space.

984
01:08:00,200 --> 01:08:03,840
Speaker 1: This is a mental health issue, of course. Let's listen

985
01:08:03,880 --> 01:08:07,080
Speaker 1: to clip number two. There's more. I'm sorry, I just

986
01:08:07,160 --> 01:08:09,320
Speaker 1: real with point of personal privilege.

987
01:08:09,400 --> 01:08:13,760
Speaker 8: I understand there's very little time and for delegates to speak,

988
01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:17,800
Speaker 8: but early on the mic, it's hard as a racialized

989
01:08:17,800 --> 01:08:21,840
Speaker 8: and transgender delegate to sometimes use this card and speak up,

990
01:08:21,920 --> 01:08:24,080
Speaker 8: speak to somebody in front of me in line and

991
01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:27,320
Speaker 8: ask hey, this pertains to multiple intersecting parts of my

992
01:08:27,360 --> 01:08:30,800
Speaker 8: lived experience. I'd like to speak. I was rejected when

993
01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:35,000
Speaker 8: I talked, and it's frustrating when these are my rights

994
01:08:35,040 --> 01:08:38,280
Speaker 8: being directly under attack right now in Alberta. And that

995
01:08:38,720 --> 01:08:44,080
Speaker 8: assist gender woman had spoken over me, and I understand

996
01:08:44,280 --> 01:08:46,840
Speaker 8: her rights are important too. This pertains to her too,

997
01:08:47,280 --> 01:08:50,400
Speaker 8: but I don't know. I hope that in the future

998
01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:54,240
Speaker 8: the federal MDP will also have a broader interpretation of

999
01:08:54,320 --> 01:08:56,880
Speaker 8: the equity cards for speakers. That's all, thank you.

1000
01:08:57,320 --> 01:09:01,040
Speaker 9: I will invite delegates to assist me better using the

1001
01:09:01,120 --> 01:09:06,880
Speaker 9: card by forming a straight, straight line behind the microphone

1002
01:09:07,920 --> 01:09:10,799
Speaker 9: with a prominently displayed equity card. If I see speakers

1003
01:09:10,840 --> 01:09:13,240
Speaker 9: ahead of you who are not holding a card prominently,

1004
01:09:13,360 --> 01:09:15,280
Speaker 9: it would be wrong with me to guess about their

1005
01:09:15,320 --> 01:09:19,919
Speaker 9: gender identity. And I will come to you. This applies

1006
01:09:20,080 --> 01:09:23,439
Speaker 9: so far according to your rules for gender identities other

1007
01:09:23,560 --> 01:09:26,040
Speaker 9: than a dude, but it is open to us to

1008
01:09:26,160 --> 01:09:28,439
Speaker 9: change our rules as we like, as we move forward

1009
01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:30,599
Speaker 9: into the bright and golden future.

1010
01:09:31,240 --> 01:09:36,120
Speaker 1: Thank you friends, Not the dude. I can't have dudes

1011
01:09:36,160 --> 01:09:42,000
Speaker 1: in line. Not the cisgender woman. How dare she speak?

1012
01:09:42,160 --> 01:09:42,439
Speaker 2: You know?

1013
01:09:42,600 --> 01:09:46,400
Speaker 1: How dare she you know, put down her gender equity

1014
01:09:46,479 --> 01:09:48,720
Speaker 1: card and demand to speak. You can see where this

1015
01:09:48,880 --> 01:09:52,040
Speaker 1: is headed. Give them a NaNs you're going to take

1016
01:09:52,080 --> 01:09:54,800
Speaker 1: them out. They're not going to be happy matter how

1017
01:09:54,800 --> 01:09:58,200
Speaker 1: many cards you give out, they are not going to

1018
01:09:58,280 --> 01:10:03,439
Speaker 1: be happy. Like I said, one group's gonna be angry.

1019
01:10:03,479 --> 01:10:07,559
Speaker 1: The other group got in line and what ah? So

1020
01:10:07,640 --> 01:10:09,840
Speaker 1: I read one quote on Act from somebody that used

1021
01:10:09,880 --> 01:10:12,439
Speaker 1: to be a member of this new Democrat Party of Canada,

1022
01:10:12,560 --> 01:10:15,360
Speaker 1: and they said, we thought this was a party that

1023
01:10:15,479 --> 01:10:19,360
Speaker 1: was focusing on healthcare and jobs. What happened to that?

1024
01:10:21,320 --> 01:10:21,519
Speaker 5: You know?

1025
01:10:21,880 --> 01:10:25,440
Speaker 1: And as a conservative, I say, the more that leftist

1026
01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:30,400
Speaker 1: parties go down these crazy, woke, mentally ill pathways. The

1027
01:10:30,400 --> 01:10:35,080
Speaker 1: better off it is for people like a Tom Tiffany. Right, Okay,

1028
01:10:35,560 --> 01:10:38,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take a break. We can back up some

1029
01:10:38,080 --> 01:10:41,880
Speaker 1: more funny things to tell you about. Stay tuned. So

1030
01:10:42,160 --> 01:10:44,719
Speaker 1: a friend of mine taxed me and said I should

1031
01:10:44,720 --> 01:10:48,760
Speaker 1: give out Jessica cards. It's like the reverse of a

1032
01:10:48,880 --> 01:10:52,000
Speaker 1: gender equity card. I got to think what the Jessica

1033
01:10:52,080 --> 01:10:55,559
Speaker 1: card would allow you to do, though, get a word

1034
01:10:55,560 --> 01:11:00,479
Speaker 1: in edgewise when I'm around Jim Pivovarchek and you know

1035
01:11:00,520 --> 01:11:04,479
Speaker 1: other friends. Co editor Wisconsin right now likes to say

1036
01:11:05,280 --> 01:11:07,800
Speaker 1: that I like to talk, So I think that Jessica

1037
01:11:07,920 --> 01:11:14,360
Speaker 1: card would let people get a word in edgewise. So

1038
01:11:14,520 --> 01:11:18,639
Speaker 1: apparently there's a tornado watch for southeastern Wisconsin, including Dane

1039
01:11:18,640 --> 01:11:22,720
Speaker 1: and Columbia Counties until eight pm. Tornado watch. So everybody'd

1040
01:11:22,720 --> 01:11:26,000
Speaker 1: be safe out there driving around, please and in your homes.

1041
01:11:27,200 --> 01:11:31,400
Speaker 1: So I have two competitors for quotes of the day

1042
01:11:31,560 --> 01:11:35,000
Speaker 1: or of the week. One was delivered by no other

1043
01:11:35,040 --> 01:11:38,600
Speaker 1: than Donald Trump, who is the funniest president that we

1044
01:11:38,720 --> 01:11:42,759
Speaker 1: have ever had. And there's some competition because Ronald Reagan

1045
01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:47,200
Speaker 1: was really funny, but Donald Trump is super super funny.

1046
01:11:47,960 --> 01:11:53,080
Speaker 1: He called Bruce Springsteen a quote dried up perune end quote.

1047
01:11:53,880 --> 01:11:57,479
Speaker 1: I love that Donald Trump is like a shark in

1048
01:11:57,520 --> 01:11:59,640
Speaker 1: the sense that he sniffs out the blood in the

1049
01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:03,439
Speaker 1: water and he just finds a person's weakness and just

1050
01:12:03,479 --> 01:12:05,840
Speaker 1: goes right for it, like with a harpoon, with a

1051
01:12:05,920 --> 01:12:09,920
Speaker 1: verbal harpoon, and then you can never forget it. Dried

1052
01:12:10,320 --> 01:12:15,000
Speaker 1: up prune. As Bruce Springsteen, who's music I used to

1053
01:12:15,160 --> 01:12:18,479
Speaker 1: like a long time ago, went to Minneapolis. He charged

1054
01:12:18,520 --> 01:12:22,040
Speaker 1: eight hundred dollars and he ranted and raved about the racist,

1055
01:12:22,120 --> 01:12:27,559
Speaker 1: reckless and treason is Trump administration. He's jumped the shark,

1056
01:12:28,520 --> 01:12:32,000
Speaker 1: Trump said, a dried up prune. At one common I

1057
01:12:32,080 --> 01:12:34,920
Speaker 1: saw an ax A person said he's a billionaire charging

1058
01:12:34,960 --> 01:12:38,479
Speaker 1: eight hundred dollars bucks a ticket or eight hundred bucks

1059
01:12:38,479 --> 01:12:41,360
Speaker 1: a ticket to hear, or he said, who wants to

1060
01:12:41,400 --> 01:12:44,400
Speaker 1: hear a billionaire who charges eight one hundred dollars a

1061
01:12:44,479 --> 01:12:49,280
Speaker 1: ticket spewing bs like he's a seventy year old billionaire

1062
01:12:49,320 --> 01:12:52,000
Speaker 1: spewing bs and charging us for it. Thanks a lot.

1063
01:12:52,560 --> 01:12:55,080
Speaker 1: I would tell you, though, that if you research the

1064
01:12:55,120 --> 01:12:58,559
Speaker 1: history of Bruce Springsteen and born in the USA, he

1065
01:12:58,640 --> 01:13:02,000
Speaker 1: is perhaps one of the most historically misunderstood artist that

1066
01:13:02,200 --> 01:13:07,320
Speaker 1: is regarded as one of the most historically misunderstood songs.

1067
01:13:07,439 --> 01:13:11,120
Speaker 1: People think that Born in the USA was a patriotic anthem.

1068
01:13:11,200 --> 01:13:14,320
Speaker 1: It never was. The character in that song was a

1069
01:13:14,439 --> 01:13:18,200
Speaker 1: Vietnam veteran who was basically saying, I was born in

1070
01:13:18,240 --> 01:13:20,639
Speaker 1: the USA, and I deserve better because I've come home

1071
01:13:20,680 --> 01:13:23,200
Speaker 1: and there's no jobs and everything. So that was never

1072
01:13:23,520 --> 01:13:29,200
Speaker 1: a patriotic anthem. And then the second option we have

1073
01:13:29,320 --> 01:13:33,040
Speaker 1: here for quote of the week was delivered by former

1074
01:13:33,120 --> 01:13:39,320
Speaker 1: State Senator Dewey Strobel, Republican, he said, referring to Chris Taylor,

1075
01:13:39,400 --> 01:13:42,120
Speaker 1: who is running for State Supreme Court. Of course, the

1076
01:13:42,200 --> 01:13:46,040
Speaker 1: far left wing Chris Taylor, Well, she let me back up.

1077
01:13:46,160 --> 01:13:50,960
Speaker 1: She had stated that she's running on American values, and

1078
01:13:51,439 --> 01:13:55,479
Speaker 1: Dey Struggle responded on ax he said, seriously, question Mark.

1079
01:13:55,880 --> 01:13:59,559
Speaker 1: I served with Chris Taylor in the Assembly and while

1080
01:13:59,600 --> 01:14:02,679
Speaker 1: in this when we were both on the Joint Finance Committee,

1081
01:14:02,720 --> 01:14:07,160
Speaker 1: and frankly, she was the most obnoxious liberal bomb thrower

1082
01:14:07,320 --> 01:14:11,760
Speaker 1: I encountered during all of my years in state office.

1083
01:14:11,840 --> 01:14:18,120
Speaker 1: She is truly a whack job. Don't buy this BS.

1084
01:14:19,439 --> 01:14:21,559
Speaker 1: By the way, I would note that Chris Taylor was

1085
01:14:21,600 --> 01:14:25,040
Speaker 1: appointed by Tony Evers to be a judge.

1086
01:14:25,080 --> 01:14:25,679
Speaker 8: She is a.

1087
01:14:25,680 --> 01:14:34,040
Speaker 1: Former left wing Democrat legislator. She was the policy director

1088
01:14:34,280 --> 01:14:38,800
Speaker 1: for Planned Parenthood. I mean, I would be remiss if

1089
01:14:38,840 --> 01:14:41,720
Speaker 1: I didn't talk briefly about the State Supreme Court race.

1090
01:14:42,000 --> 01:14:44,920
Speaker 1: I'm sure heard a lot about it on this radio station.

1091
01:14:45,760 --> 01:14:48,720
Speaker 1: You know what, people get out and vote, Get out

1092
01:14:48,720 --> 01:14:51,519
Speaker 1: and vote. I voted early the other day in lack

1093
01:14:51,600 --> 01:14:55,360
Speaker 1: Label in Waukesha County, and I always asked the clerk, so,

1094
01:14:55,520 --> 01:14:59,400
Speaker 1: how's the turnout going, how's the turnout? And they said, well,

1095
01:14:59,439 --> 01:15:04,559
Speaker 1: it's down. It's down, and that's bad. That's bad for conservatives,

1096
01:15:04,800 --> 01:15:11,000
Speaker 1: conservative candidates to have Wow County turnout be down. What

1097
01:15:11,080 --> 01:15:14,320
Speaker 1: I want to tell you is I want to deliver

1098
01:15:14,400 --> 01:15:17,080
Speaker 1: a very strong message as we close out the hour here,

1099
01:15:17,120 --> 01:15:19,280
Speaker 1: and that is that all is not lost in the

1100
01:15:19,320 --> 01:15:22,559
Speaker 1: State Supreme Court race. And I mean that sincerely. And

1101
01:15:22,680 --> 01:15:26,280
Speaker 1: of course, Chris Taylor just described as truly a whack

1102
01:15:26,400 --> 01:15:31,400
Speaker 1: job by doing struggle is running against Marial Azar. Marial

1103
01:15:31,479 --> 01:15:34,880
Speaker 1: Azar is an appellate court judge. She is a former

1104
01:15:34,920 --> 01:15:39,960
Speaker 1: Waukesha County Circuit judge. She was a prosecutor for the

1105
01:15:40,000 --> 01:15:44,120
Speaker 1: State Department of Justice. She defended AC ten during the

1106
01:15:44,160 --> 01:15:47,840
Speaker 1: Scott Walker years. There could not possibly be a more

1107
01:15:47,920 --> 01:15:52,920
Speaker 1: qualified candidate for State Supreme Court than Judge Marial Azar.

1108
01:15:53,160 --> 01:15:55,679
Speaker 1: And the Marquette poll that came out the other day,

1109
01:15:55,760 --> 01:15:59,120
Speaker 1: because there's very little polling on this race, had Taylor

1110
01:15:59,160 --> 01:16:02,040
Speaker 1: at twenty three percent sent Lazare at seventeen. So that's

1111
01:16:02,040 --> 01:16:06,080
Speaker 1: a six point gap, but fifty three percent people were undecided.

1112
01:16:06,720 --> 01:16:11,960
Speaker 1: Fifty three percent of the voters were undecided. This is

1113
01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:17,360
Speaker 1: a winnable race. This is a winnable race for conservatives.

1114
01:16:17,400 --> 01:16:20,920
Speaker 1: This is not last year's race. This is not Shimmel

1115
01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:23,760
Speaker 1: versus Crawford. That was a different dynamic. That was a

1116
01:16:23,800 --> 01:16:27,759
Speaker 1: snapback election where people were reacting to the Trump election

1117
01:16:27,920 --> 01:16:31,160
Speaker 1: in November. The left wing came out and droves. That

1118
01:16:31,280 --> 01:16:34,200
Speaker 1: was a very nationalized race. You had Elin Musk involved

1119
01:16:34,200 --> 01:16:36,599
Speaker 1: in you honestly, what that ended up doing is driving

1120
01:16:36,640 --> 01:16:41,040
Speaker 1: out liberal voters in absolute droves. You don't have any

1121
01:16:41,080 --> 01:16:45,479
Speaker 1: of that dynamic. I mean, turnout is down across the board.

1122
01:16:46,000 --> 01:16:49,320
Speaker 1: It's down more though of the early vote total show

1123
01:16:49,400 --> 01:16:52,160
Speaker 1: it's down more in the Wow counties than in say

1124
01:16:52,400 --> 01:16:56,439
Speaker 1: liberal bastions like Dane county, and so that's ominous for Lazarre.

1125
01:16:57,200 --> 01:17:00,240
Speaker 1: But because turnout is down sort of all over, or

1126
01:17:01,240 --> 01:17:04,280
Speaker 1: if conservatives get off their duffs and they go out

1127
01:17:04,320 --> 01:17:08,000
Speaker 1: and they vote on April seventh, Lazar does have a

1128
01:17:08,160 --> 01:17:13,280
Speaker 1: chance people to pull this off. She legitimately does. And

1129
01:17:14,280 --> 01:17:18,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna read one more time this quote. Do we

1130
01:17:18,320 --> 01:17:22,280
Speaker 1: struggle underscoring what's at stake here? Saying I served with

1131
01:17:22,400 --> 01:17:25,800
Speaker 1: Chris Taylor in the legislature. Okay, I know what I'm

1132
01:17:25,800 --> 01:17:31,000
Speaker 1: talking about, and she was quote the most obnoxious liberal

1133
01:17:31,080 --> 01:17:35,640
Speaker 1: bomb thrower I encountered during all of my years in

1134
01:17:35,720 --> 01:17:42,120
Speaker 1: state office. Truly a whack job. Don't buy this, BS.

1135
01:17:43,120 --> 01:17:47,200
Speaker 1: Chris Taylor is described as more extremely liberal than Janet

1136
01:17:47,240 --> 01:17:50,479
Speaker 1: Proto Sewitz and Susan Crufford. I want you to wrap

1137
01:17:50,520 --> 01:17:53,680
Speaker 1: your minds around that. She is described when she was

1138
01:17:53,680 --> 01:17:59,280
Speaker 1: in the legislature, she was the most liberal legislator in Wisconsin.

1139
01:18:00,360 --> 01:18:01,640
Speaker 1: I'm not going to tell you who to vote for.

1140
01:18:01,680 --> 01:18:03,360
Speaker 1: What I am going to tell you to do is

1141
01:18:03,439 --> 01:18:08,160
Speaker 1: please consider getting out to vote. This April seventh election

1142
01:18:08,960 --> 01:18:12,240
Speaker 1: really matters. And when we come back in the next

1143
01:18:12,280 --> 01:18:14,920
Speaker 1: hour of the show, I have a very interesting guest

1144
01:18:15,240 --> 01:18:17,200
Speaker 1: and we're going to switch our focus to some of

1145
01:18:17,240 --> 01:18:22,799
Speaker 1: the very important mayoral races in Waukesha County. Stay tuned,

1146
01:18:24,800 --> 01:18:29,800
Speaker 1: good evening, Wisconsin. This is Jessica McBride filling in for

1147
01:18:29,960 --> 01:18:35,240
Speaker 1: Dan O'Donnell. I am the co founder of Wisconsin right

1148
01:18:35,280 --> 01:18:37,160
Speaker 1: now dot com. Please check it out. We do have

1149
01:18:37,200 --> 01:18:41,760
Speaker 1: some voter guides posted there, particular for counties in the

1150
01:18:41,840 --> 01:18:45,040
Speaker 1: Milwaukee metropolitan area. We have Waukesha County voter guide on

1151
01:18:45,080 --> 01:18:48,120
Speaker 1: Wisconsin right now dot com. We have a Washington County,

1152
01:18:48,240 --> 01:18:51,559
Speaker 1: Jefferson County, so we did a number of you know,

1153
01:18:51,680 --> 01:18:56,840
Speaker 1: sort of county level voter guides. So a friend of

1154
01:18:56,840 --> 01:18:59,360
Speaker 1: mine texted me and said she lives in the town

1155
01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:04,160
Speaker 1: of Delafield. And then early voting there is only eight percent. Yikes,

1156
01:19:04,720 --> 01:19:07,679
Speaker 1: it's not good, folks, so I said in the last

1157
01:19:07,720 --> 01:19:14,000
Speaker 1: hour of the program, Conservative Judge Marial Azar needs conservatives

1158
01:19:14,000 --> 01:19:18,320
Speaker 1: and moderates to get off their sofas. And I get it.

1159
01:19:18,400 --> 01:19:21,240
Speaker 1: You know what, people are demoralized from what happened last

1160
01:19:21,360 --> 01:19:24,439
Speaker 1: year with Shimmel and all that. And you know, I've

1161
01:19:24,439 --> 01:19:26,519
Speaker 1: fought against that a little bit too. I get that,

1162
01:19:26,600 --> 01:19:29,400
Speaker 1: but it is a different race. It's a completely different

1163
01:19:29,479 --> 01:19:34,920
Speaker 1: dynamic and it is winnable for mariel Azar. But I'm

1164
01:19:34,960 --> 01:19:39,360
Speaker 1: getting concerned about the reports of sluggish Wow County turnout

1165
01:19:39,640 --> 01:19:43,880
Speaker 1: that I'm hearing. So I wanted to dive into a

1166
01:19:43,920 --> 01:19:48,920
Speaker 1: couple of the Waukesha County mayoral races. I think they're

1167
01:19:48,920 --> 01:19:52,360
Speaker 1: really important, and you know, there's not a lot of

1168
01:19:52,400 --> 01:19:55,519
Speaker 1: news coverage about them, and I want to focus on

1169
01:19:55,640 --> 01:19:57,760
Speaker 1: three in particular, and there's other ones I could do.

1170
01:19:57,840 --> 01:20:00,679
Speaker 1: There's you know what, there's so many local That's why

1171
01:20:00,680 --> 01:20:02,960
Speaker 1: again I would encourage you to go on Wisconsin right

1172
01:20:03,000 --> 01:20:04,920
Speaker 1: now and check out the voter guides that we did

1173
01:20:04,960 --> 01:20:07,840
Speaker 1: And I know Dan O'Donnell has his new site as well,

1174
01:20:07,880 --> 01:20:11,000
Speaker 1: the Heartland Post, and they have a universal comprehensive voter

1175
01:20:11,040 --> 01:20:14,320
Speaker 1: guide as well for conservatives. So check out the voter guides.

1176
01:20:14,360 --> 01:20:16,040
Speaker 1: I don't care which one you do. Just pull some

1177
01:20:16,120 --> 01:20:18,360
Speaker 1: of these voter guides up and you can find out

1178
01:20:18,400 --> 01:20:20,920
Speaker 1: about all these different local races. There's a lot of

1179
01:20:20,960 --> 01:20:24,439
Speaker 1: school board races. I've been getting techs on a lot

1180
01:20:24,439 --> 01:20:28,040
Speaker 1: of county board races. Aldermanic. There's just there's so many

1181
01:20:28,120 --> 01:20:31,360
Speaker 1: races that we could talk about. Go, you know, review

1182
01:20:31,360 --> 01:20:34,680
Speaker 1: the voter guides. But I'm going to single out the

1183
01:20:34,680 --> 01:20:40,160
Speaker 1: o'connowak maors race, the Brookfield Mirrors race, and the City

1184
01:20:40,200 --> 01:20:44,439
Speaker 1: of Waukesha Mayor's race. And I think I'm gonna start

1185
01:20:44,439 --> 01:20:47,439
Speaker 1: with O'conwack because it's a little bit different. I think

1186
01:20:47,560 --> 01:20:52,280
Speaker 1: Brookfield and Waukesha I can sort of connect some dots

1187
01:20:52,320 --> 01:20:54,280
Speaker 1: for you, and what's going on with the left is

1188
01:20:54,360 --> 01:20:57,720
Speaker 1: up to with those two races. I think the OCONOMWK

1189
01:20:57,800 --> 01:21:01,759
Speaker 1: ones just a little bit different. But I care about

1190
01:21:01,760 --> 01:21:04,519
Speaker 1: it and I'm gonna tell you why about it, and

1191
01:21:04,760 --> 01:21:06,040
Speaker 1: I can't vote in it. I don't live in the

1192
01:21:06,040 --> 01:21:08,479
Speaker 1: city of Oconomwalk, but I live in the old town

1193
01:21:08,479 --> 01:21:12,720
Speaker 1: of Oconowalk now called lack LaBelle, and so it's in

1194
01:21:12,800 --> 01:21:15,559
Speaker 1: my backyard. And I am going to be a nimby

1195
01:21:15,840 --> 01:21:20,800
Speaker 1: on this one. Not in my backyard, Okay, I am not.

1196
01:21:22,240 --> 01:21:25,479
Speaker 1: I'm not going to take this sitting down. I want

1197
01:21:25,600 --> 01:21:30,519
Speaker 1: conservative mayors in my backyard. I want a conservative mayor

1198
01:21:30,560 --> 01:21:34,160
Speaker 1: in my backyard. Split that way, we have to draw

1199
01:21:34,200 --> 01:21:36,040
Speaker 1: the line. We have to keep drawing the line in

1200
01:21:36,080 --> 01:21:39,000
Speaker 1: the waw counties, in Waukesha County or Zaki County, Washington

1201
01:21:39,040 --> 01:21:41,400
Speaker 1: County and say, you know what, no, We're not going

1202
01:21:41,479 --> 01:21:45,760
Speaker 1: to keep allowing this liberal creep to happen. So to speak, like,

1203
01:21:45,800 --> 01:21:50,040
Speaker 1: there's liberal creep happening, and we all see it. You

1204
01:21:50,080 --> 01:21:53,040
Speaker 1: can see it in the erosion of the Republican vote

1205
01:21:53,040 --> 01:21:55,920
Speaker 1: totals during the presidential election and everything out here in

1206
01:21:55,960 --> 01:21:58,800
Speaker 1: Waukesha County, in the waw counties, and I'm gonna do

1207
01:21:58,920 --> 01:22:01,920
Speaker 1: my part not to that happen. So I do think

1208
01:22:01,960 --> 01:22:05,080
Speaker 1: there is a distinct difference between the two candidates for

1209
01:22:05,240 --> 01:22:07,800
Speaker 1: Economwak mayor and I'm I'm going to tell you about that.

1210
01:22:07,960 --> 01:22:09,840
Speaker 1: So there are two candidates in the race. They are

1211
01:22:09,880 --> 01:22:12,880
Speaker 1: both members of the city council. One is named Karen

1212
01:22:12,960 --> 01:22:18,120
Speaker 1: Spiegelberg and the other one is named Matt Rosick. I

1213
01:22:18,200 --> 01:22:22,840
Speaker 1: believe that Matt Rosick is by far the more reliably

1214
01:22:23,000 --> 01:22:27,200
Speaker 1: conservative candidate in that race. I am not going to

1215
01:22:27,280 --> 01:22:31,120
Speaker 1: go as far as calling Karen Spiegelberg a Democrat or

1216
01:22:31,200 --> 01:22:34,439
Speaker 1: a far leftist or anything like that. I am going

1217
01:22:34,439 --> 01:22:37,920
Speaker 1: to reserve that title for the liberal candidates running for

1218
01:22:38,040 --> 01:22:42,080
Speaker 1: the City of Waukeshaw mayor position and the Brookfield one.

1219
01:22:42,280 --> 01:22:46,719
Speaker 1: But in Econawak, I'm going to simply say Matt Rosick

1220
01:22:46,840 --> 01:22:49,640
Speaker 1: is the more reliably conservative candidate, and I have a

1221
01:22:49,640 --> 01:22:54,400
Speaker 1: lot of concerns about Karen Spiegelberg and her candidacy, and

1222
01:22:54,439 --> 01:22:58,360
Speaker 1: those concerns are shared by other conservatives in the area.

1223
01:22:58,960 --> 01:23:03,639
Speaker 1: So Matt Rosick, for example, has been endorsed by Barb Dietrich,

1224
01:23:04,040 --> 01:23:07,200
Speaker 1: the state representative in that area, Republican who we heard

1225
01:23:07,240 --> 01:23:09,519
Speaker 1: from in the first hour of the show. He's been

1226
01:23:09,640 --> 01:23:15,839
Speaker 1: endorsed by Paul Farrow, the county executive. He's been endorsed

1227
01:23:15,840 --> 01:23:19,960
Speaker 1: by District Attorney Leslie Baisey. So basically, in others, Matt

1228
01:23:20,080 --> 01:23:25,920
Speaker 1: Rossik has a long list of very prominent county officials

1229
01:23:25,960 --> 01:23:29,880
Speaker 1: and state officials Republican who are endorsing his candidacy. On

1230
01:23:29,920 --> 01:23:36,120
Speaker 1: the other side, Karen Spiegelberg is being pushed by some

1231
01:23:36,400 --> 01:23:42,080
Speaker 1: very left wing activists in the community, a very liberal

1232
01:23:42,840 --> 01:23:49,120
Speaker 1: Facebook group. She's clearly the choice of liberals. This liberal cabal,

1233
01:23:49,479 --> 01:23:52,040
Speaker 1: if you will, that exists out there in o'conwack, and

1234
01:23:52,120 --> 01:23:56,360
Speaker 1: anyone who's active in politics, and o'conwack knows exactly what

1235
01:23:56,400 --> 01:23:59,760
Speaker 1: I'm talking about there is it's a conservative community, but

1236
01:23:59,800 --> 01:24:02,760
Speaker 1: there is a liberal cabal out there that is very

1237
01:24:02,760 --> 01:24:05,919
Speaker 1: aggressive and active, and they've made it clear in Facebook

1238
01:24:05,960 --> 01:24:10,240
Speaker 1: posts and things that Karen Spiegelberg is their choice. I

1239
01:24:10,360 --> 01:24:13,360
Speaker 1: have some audio. This was flying around social media, but

1240
01:24:13,400 --> 01:24:16,679
Speaker 1: I did obtain I worked to obtain the original audio

1241
01:24:16,880 --> 01:24:19,400
Speaker 1: file and so I could verify that she said this,

1242
01:24:19,479 --> 01:24:21,800
Speaker 1: and I reached out to her for comment, like I'm

1243
01:24:21,800 --> 01:24:23,680
Speaker 1: not out to get her, I'm not trying to do

1244
01:24:23,760 --> 01:24:28,439
Speaker 1: some gotcha game. I gave her every ample opportunity to comment.

1245
01:24:29,080 --> 01:24:33,880
Speaker 1: And this was audio in which she stated that she

1246
01:24:34,160 --> 01:24:37,680
Speaker 1: loved the idea of a wheel tax in the community.

1247
01:24:37,720 --> 01:24:41,599
Speaker 1: And again she's on the city council saying this now

1248
01:24:41,880 --> 01:24:46,479
Speaker 1: on her side, this was six years ago. She's trying

1249
01:24:46,520 --> 01:24:48,760
Speaker 1: to claim in the response to me that she now

1250
01:24:48,800 --> 01:24:53,320
Speaker 1: opposes all taxes or tax increases. I should say so

1251
01:24:53,360 --> 01:24:56,360
Speaker 1: people can make of that what they want. But let's

1252
01:24:56,479 --> 01:25:02,200
Speaker 1: listen to Karen Spiegelberg, mayoral candidate and o'conomak talking about

1253
01:25:02,200 --> 01:25:05,360
Speaker 1: her love for the idea of a wheel tax.

1254
01:25:05,560 --> 01:25:07,200
Speaker 8: So I love the idea of the wheel tax and

1255
01:25:07,280 --> 01:25:09,439
Speaker 8: actually brought information on it.

1256
01:25:09,520 --> 01:25:11,040
Speaker 5: I was like a new tax to me.

1257
01:25:12,080 --> 01:25:14,120
Speaker 2: I just I love that idea. I think it's a

1258
01:25:14,120 --> 01:25:16,759
Speaker 2: no brainer, especially when so many communities are doing.

1259
01:25:16,560 --> 01:25:18,759
Speaker 5: It more taxes good?

1260
01:25:20,040 --> 01:25:22,360
Speaker 2: I mean, would we then have the opportunity to maybe say, well,

1261
01:25:22,400 --> 01:25:24,320
Speaker 2: let's do twenty five dollars.

1262
01:25:24,080 --> 01:25:27,320
Speaker 8: Per vehicle, lady for more taxes in the future.

1263
01:25:28,120 --> 01:25:31,880
Speaker 2: Does Wisconsin Dot allow you each year to revisit that amount?

1264
01:25:32,120 --> 01:25:34,160
Speaker 8: Can we bruise those taxes.

1265
01:25:33,720 --> 01:25:34,400
Speaker 5: Once a year?

1266
01:25:37,080 --> 01:25:40,080
Speaker 1: Okay? So the sound effects were created by a man

1267
01:25:40,160 --> 01:25:44,720
Speaker 1: named Lou Koweeeski's a community activist out there, you know,

1268
01:25:44,760 --> 01:25:49,200
Speaker 1: a former city official, and he posted that on Facebook.

1269
01:25:49,240 --> 01:25:51,280
Speaker 1: I saw it, like I said, I verified, I got

1270
01:25:51,320 --> 01:25:55,400
Speaker 1: the original file. So she was clearly at one point

1271
01:25:55,400 --> 01:25:57,759
Speaker 1: in time in love with the idea of a wheel tax.

1272
01:25:57,800 --> 01:26:00,120
Speaker 1: And I will simply state, you know, I live in

1273
01:26:00,160 --> 01:26:04,439
Speaker 1: Waukesha County because I don't want wheel taxes and things

1274
01:26:04,520 --> 01:26:07,280
Speaker 1: like that, right, I mean, if I wanted a wheel

1275
01:26:07,320 --> 01:26:09,600
Speaker 1: tax I would move to Milwaukee County, where they have

1276
01:26:09,640 --> 01:26:14,360
Speaker 1: a very large one. By the way, So Karen Spiegelberg

1277
01:26:15,560 --> 01:26:19,120
Speaker 1: also we did story about this for Wisconsin right now.

1278
01:26:19,520 --> 01:26:24,160
Speaker 1: She scolded a local business, very prominent and very beloved,

1279
01:26:24,200 --> 01:26:27,360
Speaker 1: frankly local business in the city of Econwawk, for daring

1280
01:26:28,040 --> 01:26:31,439
Speaker 1: to post a Matt Rosick sign. And again, Matt Rosick

1281
01:26:31,520 --> 01:26:34,439
Speaker 1: is the reliably conservative candidate in the Econowawk mayor's race.

1282
01:26:34,479 --> 01:26:41,360
Speaker 1: If you're just joining me, so, she said, I think

1283
01:26:41,400 --> 01:26:44,160
Speaker 1: it is important for you and the establishment to know

1284
01:26:44,360 --> 01:26:47,400
Speaker 1: because she was writing this business, to know that I

1285
01:26:48,479 --> 01:26:51,519
Speaker 1: let's see that people have not frequented the business since

1286
01:26:51,520 --> 01:26:55,640
Speaker 1: the big sign for mister Rosick was put up. So

1287
01:26:55,720 --> 01:27:00,160
Speaker 1: she actually wrote this business and basically kind of warned them, Hey, hey,

1288
01:27:00,200 --> 01:27:01,880
Speaker 1: there's some people that don't want to go to your

1289
01:27:01,920 --> 01:27:05,599
Speaker 1: restaurant because you dared to put up a Matt Rosick sign,

1290
01:27:06,640 --> 01:27:09,400
Speaker 1: to which you know, some people wrote me and who

1291
01:27:09,439 --> 01:27:11,960
Speaker 1: sent me this, and again I reached out to her

1292
01:27:11,960 --> 01:27:15,720
Speaker 1: for comment and verified this did happen. They said, I

1293
01:27:15,720 --> 01:27:18,679
Speaker 1: guess she's living up to her name. This is kind

1294
01:27:18,680 --> 01:27:22,320
Speaker 1: of a Karen thing to do, isn't it. She then

1295
01:27:22,439 --> 01:27:25,280
Speaker 1: scolded the business and repeated it to me When I

1296
01:27:25,320 --> 01:27:28,400
Speaker 1: asked her for comment, she said, I believe our businesses

1297
01:27:28,439 --> 01:27:31,360
Speaker 1: should do what they do best, serve all of our

1298
01:27:31,400 --> 01:27:37,360
Speaker 1: citizens and not get involved in partisan politics. Okay, well,

1299
01:27:38,560 --> 01:27:41,720
Speaker 1: I get no, it's a free country. They have a

1300
01:27:41,760 --> 01:27:44,280
Speaker 1: First Amendment right. If you're a business in the city

1301
01:27:44,320 --> 01:27:46,840
Speaker 1: of Economwak, you have every right to put a Matt

1302
01:27:46,920 --> 01:27:51,160
Speaker 1: Rosick sign, you know, in your window, without being scolded,

1303
01:27:51,920 --> 01:27:57,360
Speaker 1: you know, by Karen Spiegelberg. Lectured by Karen Spiegelberg. I mean,

1304
01:27:57,479 --> 01:28:01,840
Speaker 1: if you're a downtown establishment, you probably would care very

1305
01:28:01,920 --> 01:28:04,600
Speaker 1: much who becomes the mayor of ECONOMWAC or who's on

1306
01:28:04,680 --> 01:28:09,280
Speaker 1: the city council or whatever. It would matter to your business.

1307
01:28:09,280 --> 01:28:12,640
Speaker 1: And you have a First Amendment right to, you know,

1308
01:28:12,760 --> 01:28:15,400
Speaker 1: to voice support for one candidate over the other. And

1309
01:28:15,439 --> 01:28:18,599
Speaker 1: I just thought it was bizarre, frankly that she would

1310
01:28:18,680 --> 01:28:21,640
Speaker 1: go to the degree to write them, and in this

1311
01:28:21,880 --> 01:28:26,320
Speaker 1: rant which I obtained, she asked them to forward it

1312
01:28:26,360 --> 01:28:29,040
Speaker 1: to the managers of the restaurant, like she wanted this

1313
01:28:29,200 --> 01:28:33,519
Speaker 1: rant forwarded. She spelled managers, mangers m A N G

1314
01:28:33,680 --> 01:28:38,200
Speaker 1: E ers, kind of like Karen put down keyboard for

1315
01:28:38,400 --> 01:28:45,240
Speaker 1: just a minute. She then accused Matt rosek by the

1316
01:28:45,240 --> 01:28:48,840
Speaker 1: way on the wheel tax audio. She went on Facebook

1317
01:28:48,960 --> 01:28:53,960
Speaker 1: and accused him of using a sound bite that, you know,

1318
01:28:53,960 --> 01:28:57,400
Speaker 1: because lu Koweski had this community activist had posted the

1319
01:28:57,439 --> 01:28:59,840
Speaker 1: audio and she said, Matt Rosick is just using a

1320
01:29:01,080 --> 01:29:06,200
Speaker 1: to which Luke Kowiski responded, well, it's your voice. Well, Karen,

1321
01:29:06,280 --> 01:29:13,400
Speaker 1: it's it's your voice what to say. You know what,

1322
01:29:13,520 --> 01:29:17,479
Speaker 1: It's also always a red flag when someone tries to

1323
01:29:17,560 --> 01:29:21,120
Speaker 1: run for mayor and they say I'm nonpartisan and we

1324
01:29:21,160 --> 01:29:24,800
Speaker 1: shouldn't have partisanship in the mayor's office and I'm just

1325
01:29:24,840 --> 01:29:29,280
Speaker 1: for good government. This kind of rhetoric, it's like, okay,

1326
01:29:29,520 --> 01:29:31,840
Speaker 1: kind of a red flag that maybe your values or

1327
01:29:31,840 --> 01:29:34,920
Speaker 1: your philosophies aren't exactly in line with the community you

1328
01:29:34,960 --> 01:29:37,080
Speaker 1: want to serve, or you would just say what they are,

1329
01:29:37,160 --> 01:29:41,800
Speaker 1: like I I'm always suspicious when candidates cloak their candidacy

1330
01:29:41,520 --> 01:29:44,280
Speaker 1: in this generic kind of language like, oh, we don't

1331
01:29:44,320 --> 01:29:48,680
Speaker 1: want to we can't have partisanship. There's other stuff on her,

1332
01:29:48,800 --> 01:29:51,720
Speaker 1: but that's that's kind of my take on o'conomwalk. All right,

1333
01:29:53,120 --> 01:29:55,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take a quick break. When I come back,

1334
01:29:55,280 --> 01:29:59,160
Speaker 1: I want to talk about Brookfield and and the City

1335
01:29:59,200 --> 01:30:05,800
Speaker 1: of Waukesha. Hey, everybody, Jessica McBride here for Dan. So

1336
01:30:05,840 --> 01:30:09,240
Speaker 1: I just promised I want to dive in briefly to

1337
01:30:09,520 --> 01:30:13,200
Speaker 1: the Brookfield and City of Waukesha mayoral races, and I

1338
01:30:13,240 --> 01:30:16,519
Speaker 1: want to connect some dots for you between these. So

1339
01:30:16,840 --> 01:30:20,599
Speaker 1: there's a liberal blogger named Dan Schaeffer. If you're on Ax.

1340
01:30:20,680 --> 01:30:22,400
Speaker 1: You probably know who he is. If you're not, you

1341
01:30:22,439 --> 01:30:25,680
Speaker 1: probably don't. He's kind of the premier liberal blogger in

1342
01:30:25,720 --> 01:30:28,200
Speaker 1: the state Ork spracivic media and all this all right,

1343
01:30:28,920 --> 01:30:31,479
Speaker 1: And he's been just going on and on and he

1344
01:30:31,560 --> 01:30:34,080
Speaker 1: kind of connects the dots and the motives sometimes of

1345
01:30:34,439 --> 01:30:37,479
Speaker 1: the left, going on and on and on about these

1346
01:30:37,600 --> 01:30:41,479
Speaker 1: races in Waukesha County and making it very very clear

1347
01:30:42,160 --> 01:30:46,719
Speaker 1: that the left is targeting not only these you also

1348
01:30:46,880 --> 01:30:50,120
Speaker 1: do some races in Euclaire and Green Bay and Kenoshan.

1349
01:30:50,160 --> 01:30:53,559
Speaker 1: We're seeing everything, but targeting the Brookfield mayor's race and

1350
01:30:53,600 --> 01:30:56,519
Speaker 1: the City of Waukesha mayor's races. They want to flip

1351
01:30:57,240 --> 01:31:01,280
Speaker 1: those seats for Democrats. Well, actually in Waukesha right now,

1352
01:31:01,400 --> 01:31:05,599
Speaker 1: the outgoing mayor in towards Kamala Harris, so I guess

1353
01:31:05,680 --> 01:31:08,519
Speaker 1: in that case they want to keep it for a lefty.

1354
01:31:08,560 --> 01:31:13,320
Speaker 1: But the point is they're making a huge push for

1355
01:31:13,400 --> 01:31:18,080
Speaker 1: these mayoral seats. And what he had written, this liberal

1356
01:31:18,080 --> 01:31:22,760
Speaker 1: blogger is he said, you know, a generation ago, Democrats

1357
01:31:22,840 --> 01:31:25,760
Speaker 1: running for office in Waukesha County would have been unheard of.

1358
01:31:26,439 --> 01:31:29,960
Speaker 1: It's the longtime base of Republican politics in Wisconsin. But

1359
01:31:30,080 --> 01:31:33,439
Speaker 1: he said, basically, now we have this huge opportunity, and

1360
01:31:33,560 --> 01:31:36,720
Speaker 1: he sketched out why it matters to the left to

1361
01:31:36,760 --> 01:31:40,840
Speaker 1: get Democrats in some of these key mayoral positions. In

1362
01:31:41,240 --> 01:31:45,280
Speaker 1: Waukesha County, he said, sixty eight of seventy two counties

1363
01:31:45,280 --> 01:31:48,960
Speaker 1: in Wisconsin shifted to the right from twenty twenty to

1364
01:31:49,040 --> 01:31:52,439
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. That's interesting. Actually, I didn't know that

1365
01:31:52,680 --> 01:31:56,080
Speaker 1: data point. That was interesting, he said, except Waukesha County,

1366
01:31:56,880 --> 01:32:00,799
Speaker 1: and it's the third most populouist county, so a shift

1367
01:32:00,840 --> 01:32:03,240
Speaker 1: of a few percentage points would be a very big

1368
01:32:03,280 --> 01:32:08,120
Speaker 1: deal statewide. So he basically saying and other leftists have

1369
01:32:08,200 --> 01:32:10,400
Speaker 1: said this to It's not just Schaeffer, but they're saying

1370
01:32:10,960 --> 01:32:14,760
Speaker 1: Brookfield and Waukesha, those mayoral seats are big gets for

1371
01:32:14,880 --> 01:32:18,720
Speaker 1: the left. They want a beachhead in Waukesha County and

1372
01:32:18,760 --> 01:32:21,400
Speaker 1: some of these other counties. They're trying to establish a

1373
01:32:21,400 --> 01:32:25,880
Speaker 1: beachhead so that they can continue to erode or help

1374
01:32:25,920 --> 01:32:32,479
Speaker 1: eroad the wild County vote for Republicans. And it's not

1375
01:32:32,560 --> 01:32:36,439
Speaker 1: just rhetoric. So there's an out of state dark money group,

1376
01:32:37,280 --> 01:32:42,240
Speaker 1: a shadowy groups, so to speak, with ties to celebrity Democrats,

1377
01:32:42,280 --> 01:32:45,760
Speaker 1: people like Sally Field and you know, goofballs like that.

1378
01:32:45,880 --> 01:32:48,040
Speaker 1: You know, do ads for this groups called the State

1379
01:32:48,040 --> 01:32:52,479
Speaker 1: and Local Election Alliance, and I pulled the campaign finance

1380
01:32:52,560 --> 01:32:56,400
Speaker 1: reports for it. They have funneled over one hundred thousand

1381
01:32:56,439 --> 01:33:01,400
Speaker 1: dollars into the Brookfield Mayor's race and over one hundred

1382
01:33:01,439 --> 01:33:05,080
Speaker 1: and seventy thousand dollars into the City of Waukesha mayors race. Also,

1383
01:33:05,120 --> 01:33:08,000
Speaker 1: they're trying to play in Green Bay Aldermanic races, eu

1384
01:33:08,040 --> 01:33:12,599
Speaker 1: Claire Races, Kenosha ra Seen Aldermen Osaw and Wahwa Toasa

1385
01:33:12,720 --> 01:33:17,280
Speaker 1: Aldermanic races. And so again I would encourage you with

1386
01:33:17,360 --> 01:33:18,720
Speaker 1: the TOASA one because I know we have a lot

1387
01:33:18,720 --> 01:33:23,240
Speaker 1: of Wawa TOASA listeners. You know, go pull the Dan

1388
01:33:23,320 --> 01:33:26,680
Speaker 1: O'Donnell's Conservative Voter Guide because he has Milwaukee County in

1389
01:33:26,720 --> 01:33:29,240
Speaker 1: there and it'll tell you who the conservative candidates are

1390
01:33:30,280 --> 01:33:34,200
Speaker 1: for TOASTA, aldermen, for school board, things like that. Anyway,

1391
01:33:34,960 --> 01:33:36,800
Speaker 1: because I don't think Wisconsin right now. We haven't done

1392
01:33:36,800 --> 01:33:39,559
Speaker 1: Milwaukee County yet, but I should do that before before

1393
01:33:39,640 --> 01:33:43,320
Speaker 1: the election. We did the other Wall County counties, so

1394
01:33:44,000 --> 01:33:47,800
Speaker 1: we did waukeshow Zaki Washington. Anyway, let me break down

1395
01:33:47,840 --> 01:33:52,320
Speaker 1: these these races individually. So in the city of Waukeshaw,

1396
01:33:53,400 --> 01:33:56,240
Speaker 1: you have a leftist candidate by the name of Alisha

1397
01:33:56,680 --> 01:34:00,360
Speaker 1: Helvins Laban. She's an Alderman and if you go on

1398
01:34:00,400 --> 01:34:03,679
Speaker 1: her website for her campaign, it's kind of like Karen

1399
01:34:03,680 --> 01:34:08,400
Speaker 1: Spiegelberg and Oconomwalk where you wouldn't know what she is, Okay,

1400
01:34:08,560 --> 01:34:11,800
Speaker 1: Like it doesn't highlight her Democrat endorsements, which she does have.

1401
01:34:11,880 --> 01:34:15,040
Speaker 1: By the way, she's trying to run as again, this

1402
01:34:15,160 --> 01:34:18,439
Speaker 1: nonpartisan person. If you just go on her campaign website,

1403
01:34:18,800 --> 01:34:21,040
Speaker 1: I'm telling you she is the far left candidate in

1404
01:34:21,080 --> 01:34:26,080
Speaker 1: this race. To the degree that Alisha Helvens Laban was

1405
01:34:26,280 --> 01:34:29,799
Speaker 1: posting all of this glowing stuff about the no Kings

1406
01:34:29,800 --> 01:34:33,040
Speaker 1: protests the other day, she called it an amazing site.

1407
01:34:33,520 --> 01:34:35,759
Speaker 1: And she was in a photo where there was another

1408
01:34:35,800 --> 01:34:38,800
Speaker 1: person in the group who's holding a sign calling Ice

1409
01:34:38,960 --> 01:34:45,120
Speaker 1: the Gestapo, and Alisha Helvensleban City of Waukisha Merra candidate

1410
01:34:45,240 --> 01:34:48,880
Speaker 1: was calling all of this an amazing site. She has

1411
01:34:49,000 --> 01:34:53,600
Speaker 1: trashed the GOP, She's trash Republicans, trash Trump. Okay, it

1412
01:34:53,720 --> 01:34:58,360
Speaker 1: is pretty obvious where she stands. She is the hardcore

1413
01:34:58,920 --> 01:35:01,240
Speaker 1: Democrat candidate for the City of Waukesha.

1414
01:35:01,320 --> 01:35:01,519
Speaker 4: Mare.

1415
01:35:02,320 --> 01:35:05,160
Speaker 1: On the other side, you have Representative Scott Allen. He

1416
01:35:05,439 --> 01:35:09,960
Speaker 1: is a Republican. He has two master's degrees, ten years

1417
01:35:09,960 --> 01:35:13,640
Speaker 1: in the State Assembly, a former Waukesha alderman, a realtor,

1418
01:35:13,840 --> 01:35:18,000
Speaker 1: a small business owner, was in the US Army Reserve.

1419
01:35:18,400 --> 01:35:24,800
Speaker 1: Obviously a very qualified, competent conservative candidate. Scott Allen, now

1420
01:35:24,840 --> 01:35:28,880
Speaker 1: Alicia helvenslab in, the liberal candidate, did go on a

1421
01:35:28,880 --> 01:35:33,400
Speaker 1: liberal podcast and declared that the City of Waukesha mayoral

1422
01:35:33,560 --> 01:35:37,160
Speaker 1: race is a canary in the mine against the Republican Party.

1423
01:35:37,200 --> 01:35:40,120
Speaker 1: And she was on this podcast with this, you know,

1424
01:35:40,240 --> 01:35:45,080
Speaker 1: I think wacko far left woman Kristin Lyarley, who ran

1425
01:35:45,160 --> 01:35:50,479
Speaker 1: for Congress in the past, who is very very very

1426
01:35:50,560 --> 01:35:53,679
Speaker 1: left wing and very very very pro abortion, all this stuff,

1427
01:35:54,160 --> 01:35:59,720
Speaker 1: and Kristin Lyerley said, everyone thinks they know Waukesha, but

1428
01:35:59,760 --> 01:36:03,920
Speaker 1: they're wrong. This is the first real referendum for November.

1429
01:36:04,560 --> 01:36:06,800
Speaker 1: So I want you to just think about that for

1430
01:36:06,840 --> 01:36:11,080
Speaker 1: a minute. How the left is spinning this race. They

1431
01:36:11,120 --> 01:36:14,680
Speaker 1: believe this to be a huge thing if they can

1432
01:36:14,760 --> 01:36:18,280
Speaker 1: get Alicia Helvens Laban throw over Scott Allen. They think

1433
01:36:18,439 --> 01:36:20,840
Speaker 1: this is the first real referendum. It's a canary in

1434
01:36:20,920 --> 01:36:25,360
Speaker 1: the mine for November. And Tom Tiffany they want a beachhead.

1435
01:36:25,720 --> 01:36:28,640
Speaker 1: They want a beachhead to give you a sense of

1436
01:36:28,680 --> 01:36:31,919
Speaker 1: the erosion of the city of Waukeshaw. George W. Bush

1437
01:36:31,960 --> 01:36:35,320
Speaker 1: won it by twenty one percent, Trump by six, Scott

1438
01:36:35,320 --> 01:36:39,879
Speaker 1: Walker by thirty two percent in twenty fourteen, Tim Michaels

1439
01:36:39,880 --> 01:36:42,760
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty two by less than four percent, and

1440
01:36:42,800 --> 01:36:46,360
Speaker 1: Susan Crawford won the city of Waukeshaw barely, but she

1441
01:36:46,439 --> 01:36:49,280
Speaker 1: did win it in twenty twenty five in the spring election.

1442
01:36:49,680 --> 01:36:54,439
Speaker 1: That is because it is it's lower. There's just lower

1443
01:36:54,479 --> 01:36:58,559
Speaker 1: turnout in spring elections, and Democrats they've mastered the turnout

1444
01:36:58,600 --> 01:37:01,599
Speaker 1: game in the spring. This is an important race if

1445
01:37:01,600 --> 01:37:04,400
Speaker 1: you live in the city of Waukesha, all Right, Brookfield

1446
01:37:04,439 --> 01:37:09,040
Speaker 1: Mayor's race. You have the incumbent mayor, he's conservative, Steve Ponto,

1447
01:37:09,760 --> 01:37:14,120
Speaker 1: and a challenger who has been called an unabashed Democrat

1448
01:37:14,280 --> 01:37:18,559
Speaker 1: by the name of Mike Halquist. And this is just

1449
01:37:18,600 --> 01:37:21,800
Speaker 1: a weird race because you have this hit piece in

1450
01:37:21,840 --> 01:37:24,720
Speaker 1: the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel the other day. It was this

1451
01:37:24,800 --> 01:37:31,439
Speaker 1: weird story trashing Mayor Ponto's daughter for writing too enthusiastically

1452
01:37:32,200 --> 01:37:34,439
Speaker 1: I'll say it that way to be kind about him

1453
01:37:34,479 --> 01:37:39,000
Speaker 1: all over social media and his opponents and things like that. Now,

1454
01:37:39,280 --> 01:37:41,519
Speaker 1: I'm not going to defend all her posts, and really,

1455
01:37:41,560 --> 01:37:45,400
Speaker 1: frankly even go into them. I think that it's harder

1456
01:37:46,080 --> 01:37:48,960
Speaker 1: to be a family member of a candidate sometimes than

1457
01:37:49,000 --> 01:37:51,600
Speaker 1: it is to be the actual candidate. And so I

1458
01:37:51,800 --> 01:37:55,759
Speaker 1: do actually feel empathy for family members because it's just tough.

1459
01:37:55,840 --> 01:37:57,680
Speaker 1: It's really hard to watch your love do and get

1460
01:37:57,680 --> 01:38:01,599
Speaker 1: bashed in the political sphere. And so I haven't read

1461
01:38:01,640 --> 01:38:03,960
Speaker 1: everything she's written, but I thought it was just a

1462
01:38:03,960 --> 01:38:08,559
Speaker 1: weird story. Why are we fixating on Mayor Ponto's daughter

1463
01:38:08,720 --> 01:38:12,920
Speaker 1: writing on Facebook? I mean, who cares? Like I don't care.

1464
01:38:13,000 --> 01:38:17,799
Speaker 1: This was this sort of hit piece which originated, you know, frankly,

1465
01:38:18,000 --> 01:38:20,519
Speaker 1: on the X page of this liberal blogger, Dan Schaeffer,

1466
01:38:20,560 --> 01:38:24,839
Speaker 1: who was writing about it for days before the Journal Sentinel,

1467
01:38:24,880 --> 01:38:28,960
Speaker 1: of course, you know, coincidentally certainly not picked it up.

1468
01:38:30,560 --> 01:38:34,479
Speaker 1: Let me tell you what Hulquis said about the Brookville

1469
01:38:34,479 --> 01:38:37,720
Speaker 1: mayor's race. He said, were he to win again, he's

1470
01:38:37,760 --> 01:38:41,479
Speaker 1: the Democrat, it would be a quote unquote paradigm shift.

1471
01:38:42,080 --> 01:38:44,920
Speaker 1: And here's this liberal narrative again. He said it would

1472
01:38:44,920 --> 01:38:48,760
Speaker 1: be a canary in a coal mine. By the way,

1473
01:38:48,800 --> 01:38:51,680
Speaker 1: Steve Ponto's a conservative, but he's been challenged from the

1474
01:38:51,760 --> 01:38:56,160
Speaker 1: right before. He's not some like hardcore guy, but he

1475
01:38:56,240 --> 01:39:01,320
Speaker 1: is certainly more reasonable, rational and conservative than Mike Halquist,

1476
01:39:01,520 --> 01:39:06,599
Speaker 1: who again has been labeled an unabashed Democrat. To give

1477
01:39:06,640 --> 01:39:10,040
Speaker 1: you an idea again, if the erosion of the Wow counties,

1478
01:39:10,760 --> 01:39:14,280
Speaker 1: George W. Bush won the city of Brookfield in two

1479
01:39:14,360 --> 01:39:19,360
Speaker 1: thousand by a forty percent margin. Trump won Brookfield by

1480
01:39:19,400 --> 01:39:24,840
Speaker 1: five percent Walker forty five percent in twenty fourteen, down

1481
01:39:24,880 --> 01:39:28,280
Speaker 1: to twenty eight percent in twenty eighteen. I do not

1482
01:39:28,439 --> 01:39:31,760
Speaker 1: have time to go on and on about why there's

1483
01:39:31,800 --> 01:39:36,960
Speaker 1: been this erosion in some of these formally extremely conservative counties.

1484
01:39:37,280 --> 01:39:39,680
Speaker 1: And I will say that Donald Trump figured out a

1485
01:39:39,720 --> 01:39:42,799
Speaker 1: formula to make up for that erosion by cobbling together

1486
01:39:42,880 --> 01:39:45,559
Speaker 1: a lot of the rural areas of the state. And

1487
01:39:45,560 --> 01:39:47,920
Speaker 1: I was talking to Brian Style the other day who said,

1488
01:39:47,920 --> 01:39:51,920
Speaker 1: this axis of Kenosha racin that area going more red

1489
01:39:52,000 --> 01:39:55,080
Speaker 1: also helps counterbalance some of this erosion in the Wow

1490
01:39:56,120 --> 01:39:59,720
Speaker 1: but there is no question that there's been in a

1491
01:39:59,800 --> 01:40:02,120
Speaker 1: row in the Wold counties and that this has made

1492
01:40:02,160 --> 01:40:07,400
Speaker 1: it more challenging for Conservatives to win statewide. And there's

1493
01:40:07,439 --> 01:40:10,400
Speaker 1: also no question that there is a clear difference in

1494
01:40:10,439 --> 01:40:12,839
Speaker 1: the Brookfield Mayor's race in the city of Walka Shamer's

1495
01:40:12,920 --> 01:40:16,920
Speaker 1: race between the candidates. So I'm gonna say one more time,

1496
01:40:17,160 --> 01:40:19,000
Speaker 1: and then we have to, uh, we have to actually

1497
01:40:19,080 --> 01:40:22,040
Speaker 1: go to a very interesting caller. We say one more time.

1498
01:40:22,880 --> 01:40:25,120
Speaker 1: The Conservative in the city of Brookfielle mayor's race is

1499
01:40:25,120 --> 01:40:28,280
Speaker 1: Steve Ponto, the Democrat is my call quist. And in

1500
01:40:28,320 --> 01:40:31,800
Speaker 1: the city of Walka Shameyer's race, the conservatives conservative is

1501
01:40:31,840 --> 01:40:36,840
Speaker 1: Representative Scott Allen and the Democrat is Alisia Helvensleban and

1502
01:40:36,880 --> 01:40:40,840
Speaker 1: she's very far left, and your vote matters, and the

1503
01:40:40,920 --> 01:40:44,440
Speaker 1: turnout is really going to make the difference in those races.

1504
01:40:44,560 --> 01:40:51,400
Speaker 1: I think, Okay, let's go now to my caller. Oh, actually,

1505
01:40:51,479 --> 01:40:54,600
Speaker 1: my producer prefers that I go to a quick commercial

1506
01:40:55,000 --> 01:40:56,640
Speaker 1: and when we come back, we're going to talk with

1507
01:40:56,800 --> 01:41:02,160
Speaker 1: Congressman Tom Tiffany. So stay tuned, Welcome back to the program.

1508
01:41:02,240 --> 01:41:06,760
Speaker 1: Jessica McBride here, and I have Congressman Tom Tiffany, Republican

1509
01:41:06,800 --> 01:41:11,679
Speaker 1: candidate for Wisconsin governor, on the phone. Congressman Tiffany, thank

1510
01:41:11,720 --> 01:41:17,040
Speaker 1: you for joining meat join you today, Jessica, Yes, and

1511
01:41:17,120 --> 01:41:19,639
Speaker 1: I asked you to come on because I was really

1512
01:41:19,680 --> 01:41:24,800
Speaker 1: happy to see the strong affordability agenda that you've been articulating.

1513
01:41:25,400 --> 01:41:28,479
Speaker 1: And I do think in the last governor's race, I'm

1514
01:41:28,479 --> 01:41:31,080
Speaker 1: going to cast dispersions on anyone, but I didn't think

1515
01:41:31,120 --> 01:41:33,880
Speaker 1: there was a strong enough of an economic message, and

1516
01:41:33,920 --> 01:41:36,280
Speaker 1: I think you've been doing a number of things that

1517
01:41:36,360 --> 01:41:41,280
Speaker 1: really strike toward an affordability agenda. And so the number

1518
01:41:41,320 --> 01:41:43,400
Speaker 1: one thing I wanted to let you talk about to

1519
01:41:43,479 --> 01:41:45,840
Speaker 1: the listening audience is what you said the other day

1520
01:41:45,880 --> 01:41:49,639
Speaker 1: on emissions, because I know in this area of the state,

1521
01:41:49,760 --> 01:41:53,600
Speaker 1: people really are sick and tired of these vehicle emissions

1522
01:41:53,640 --> 01:41:55,320
Speaker 1: tests that you know, we all have to go through

1523
01:41:55,400 --> 01:41:57,639
Speaker 1: and then you fail and you pay seven hundred dollars

1524
01:41:57,640 --> 01:42:00,519
Speaker 1: and it's just this ridiculous thing. People can't forward this,

1525
01:42:00,960 --> 01:42:04,160
Speaker 1: So if you could just tell the audience what you

1526
01:42:04,640 --> 01:42:09,200
Speaker 1: came out and said the other day.

1527
01:42:09,280 --> 01:42:12,439
Speaker 4: So I've been very familiar with the issue because of

1528
01:42:12,479 --> 01:42:15,759
Speaker 4: the non attainment zone that has been in place now

1529
01:42:15,920 --> 01:42:20,480
Speaker 4: for like forty years when we've been penalized.

1530
01:42:20,600 --> 01:42:23,200
Speaker 5: This is the big picture, and probably the biggest point

1531
01:42:24,200 --> 01:42:24,719
Speaker 5: is that.

1532
01:42:26,080 --> 01:42:30,040
Speaker 4: We are paying for Chicago's pollution. The pollution that comes

1533
01:42:30,120 --> 01:42:33,800
Speaker 4: up from Chicago we're being penalized for and it's been

1534
01:42:33,840 --> 01:42:38,800
Speaker 4: going on nineteen. One of the biggest costs is to

1535
01:42:38,920 --> 01:42:43,600
Speaker 4: people with older vehicles. And so while this may have

1536
01:42:43,760 --> 01:42:47,520
Speaker 4: been warranted back in nineteen eighty four, with the advancements

1537
01:42:47,560 --> 01:42:51,599
Speaker 4: in vehicle technology and emissions technology.

1538
01:42:51,400 --> 01:42:57,800
Speaker 5: There really is not a reason to make people.

1539
01:42:57,560 --> 01:43:01,160
Speaker 4: Get this testing every couple of years. And we heard

1540
01:43:01,320 --> 01:43:05,160
Speaker 4: from a gentleman that works for L and M Auto

1541
01:43:05,240 --> 01:43:08,240
Speaker 4: and North Prairie who laid it out very clearly how

1542
01:43:08,360 --> 01:43:12,240
Speaker 4: this is a tax on people who can least afford

1543
01:43:12,280 --> 01:43:18,679
Speaker 4: it when their check engine light comes on and they

1544
01:43:18,720 --> 01:43:21,640
Speaker 4: have to go in get that taken care of, and

1545
01:43:21,680 --> 01:43:25,080
Speaker 4: they end up the fixed costs more than the value

1546
01:43:25,120 --> 01:43:28,080
Speaker 4: of the car, and they end up sometimes having to

1547
01:43:28,120 --> 01:43:31,840
Speaker 4: give up their car. And so it really has done

1548
01:43:31,920 --> 01:43:35,680
Speaker 4: great harm and the science no longer supports it.

1549
01:43:35,760 --> 01:43:39,160
Speaker 5: Just this needs to go away. It's antiquated.

1550
01:43:39,840 --> 01:43:40,360
Speaker 11: Yeah, and you.

1551
01:43:40,360 --> 01:43:42,080
Speaker 1: Stood there with and I want to give him a

1552
01:43:42,080 --> 01:43:45,840
Speaker 1: shout out as well. With state Representative Bob Donovan and

1553
01:43:45,960 --> 01:43:49,200
Speaker 1: other legislators and the head of the Milwaukee County GOP,

1554
01:43:49,360 --> 01:43:52,040
Speaker 1: Hilario Daleone as well in a number of other people,

1555
01:43:52,080 --> 01:43:55,320
Speaker 1: business leaders, and you called for an end to these

1556
01:43:55,360 --> 01:44:00,160
Speaker 1: emissions tests, and can you explain the specific actions that

1557
01:44:00,200 --> 01:44:02,800
Speaker 1: you are taking to try to make that.

1558
01:44:02,760 --> 01:44:06,320
Speaker 5: Happen yet, So there's a couple of things that are

1559
01:44:06,400 --> 01:44:06,840
Speaker 5: going on.

1560
01:44:07,400 --> 01:44:13,240
Speaker 4: We are going to ask for a waiver from the

1561
01:44:13,320 --> 01:44:19,160
Speaker 4: Environmental Protection Agency. Lee Zelden currently is the administrator for

1562
01:44:19,360 --> 01:44:20,160
Speaker 4: the EPA.

1563
01:44:20,200 --> 01:44:21,760
Speaker 5: I have a good relationship with him.

1564
01:44:22,400 --> 01:44:26,920
Speaker 4: We were both in Congress together, and so I'm hoping

1565
01:44:27,120 --> 01:44:30,320
Speaker 4: that perhaps the Trump administration can issue a waiver. I

1566
01:44:30,400 --> 01:44:35,080
Speaker 4: think the other thing is getting together get elected with

1567
01:44:35,240 --> 01:44:38,639
Speaker 4: the governors of Indiana and Illinois and say, hey, let's

1568
01:44:38,640 --> 01:44:42,519
Speaker 4: work together to get a fix here, because we all

1569
01:44:42,600 --> 01:44:46,200
Speaker 4: want to have clean water and in this instance, clean air.

1570
01:44:46,800 --> 01:44:49,080
Speaker 4: Let's work together to make that happen.

1571
01:44:49,400 --> 01:44:50,880
Speaker 5: And that just seems like that would be.

1572
01:44:50,840 --> 01:44:54,280
Speaker 4: Something reasonable for governors here in the Midwest to work

1573
01:44:54,320 --> 01:44:57,920
Speaker 4: towards and stop this penalty on the people of the

1574
01:44:57,960 --> 01:44:59,000
Speaker 4: state of Wisconsin.

1575
01:44:59,520 --> 01:45:02,400
Speaker 1: And again, it's in seven counties of the state where

1576
01:45:02,400 --> 01:45:05,920
Speaker 1: we have to go through this, you know, emissions thing,

1577
01:45:06,640 --> 01:45:09,639
Speaker 1: and the other topic I wanted to let you weigh

1578
01:45:09,680 --> 01:45:12,040
Speaker 1: in on, and I saw this the other day where

1579
01:45:12,080 --> 01:45:14,479
Speaker 1: you I believe it was a press conference you held

1580
01:45:14,520 --> 01:45:18,599
Speaker 1: in Warsaw where you are also calling for ending state

1581
01:45:18,640 --> 01:45:22,000
Speaker 1: income taxes on tips and overtime, kind of taking a

1582
01:45:22,000 --> 01:45:24,400
Speaker 1: page from what Trump had said. Can you talk a

1583
01:45:24,479 --> 01:45:26,120
Speaker 1: little bit about that plan.

1584
01:45:27,960 --> 01:45:32,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, we just rolled that out yesterday, no state income

1585
01:45:32,200 --> 01:45:36,600
Speaker 4: tax on tips and overtime, and it just follows on

1586
01:45:36,680 --> 01:45:38,120
Speaker 4: the federal policy.

1587
01:45:37,720 --> 01:45:40,599
Speaker 5: That was put in place that I voted for that

1588
01:45:40,720 --> 01:45:41,479
Speaker 5: is now the law.

1589
01:45:41,960 --> 01:45:45,599
Speaker 4: And you see during this filing season there's people that

1590
01:45:45,640 --> 01:45:50,080
Speaker 4: are bringing significantly more money home as a result of

1591
01:45:50,160 --> 01:45:53,360
Speaker 4: not having to pay taxes on tips and overtime. And

1592
01:45:53,360 --> 01:45:54,920
Speaker 4: by the way, it was a big, beautiful bill. We

1593
01:45:54,960 --> 01:45:59,000
Speaker 4: also did no taxes on Social Security, and I think

1594
01:45:59,040 --> 01:46:03,920
Speaker 4: it should be extended in state. The state has plenty

1595
01:46:03,920 --> 01:46:07,400
Speaker 4: of money. We should be rewarding the workers of the

1596
01:46:07,439 --> 01:46:10,439
Speaker 4: state of Wisconsin and allowing them to keep more money

1597
01:46:10,479 --> 01:46:11,640
Speaker 4: in their paychecks.

1598
01:46:12,439 --> 01:46:15,360
Speaker 1: The other topic in the affordability realm that I've seen

1599
01:46:15,400 --> 01:46:18,720
Speaker 1: you weigh in on is the utility rate hikes. And

1600
01:46:18,840 --> 01:46:21,680
Speaker 1: of course, you know Governor Ever's role in appointing all

1601
01:46:21,720 --> 01:46:24,600
Speaker 1: the people who are hiking utility rates. And there was

1602
01:46:24,640 --> 01:46:27,559
Speaker 1: just another story the other day on more utility rate

1603
01:46:27,640 --> 01:46:30,040
Speaker 1: increases and all of this stuff adds up, right and

1604
01:46:30,200 --> 01:46:34,559
Speaker 1: just harms people's quality of life. And can you talk

1605
01:46:34,600 --> 01:46:37,559
Speaker 1: about utility rate increases in your stance on that.

1606
01:46:40,200 --> 01:46:42,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, there needs to be an overhaul of the Public

1607
01:46:42,840 --> 01:46:47,960
Speaker 4: Service Commission. Under Governor Evers, there's over two billion dollars

1608
01:46:47,960 --> 01:46:51,400
Speaker 4: worth of rate increases on the people of the state Wisconsin,

1609
01:46:51,760 --> 01:46:54,400
Speaker 4: and boy, they've been seeing the impact over the last

1610
01:46:54,400 --> 01:47:00,000
Speaker 4: few months. We got reports and saw people's utility bills

1611
01:46:59,800 --> 01:47:02,759
Speaker 4: in February where people paid as much as three hundred

1612
01:47:02,760 --> 01:47:06,120
Speaker 4: dollars a month more than they did the previous year.

1613
01:47:06,720 --> 01:47:09,320
Speaker 4: So it's clearly a problem. We used to be the

1614
01:47:09,360 --> 01:47:12,559
Speaker 4: second lowest in the Midwest for utility rates. We're now

1615
01:47:12,600 --> 01:47:17,799
Speaker 4: the second highest. And that's been driven significantly by Governor

1616
01:47:17,840 --> 01:47:22,640
Speaker 4: Evers public Service Commission appointees, and they've basically been a

1617
01:47:22,720 --> 01:47:25,120
Speaker 4: rubber stamp. And all you have to do is look

1618
01:47:25,120 --> 01:47:29,360
Speaker 4: at the difference between the Walker years eight years when

1619
01:47:29,479 --> 01:47:32,440
Speaker 4: I believe there was about seven hundred million dollars in increases.

1620
01:47:32,640 --> 01:47:34,800
Speaker 4: We're going to be well over two billion dollars in

1621
01:47:34,880 --> 01:47:39,960
Speaker 4: the increases during the Evers that been two terms in office.

1622
01:47:40,960 --> 01:47:43,120
Speaker 1: Well, and I think we need to remind people that

1623
01:47:43,680 --> 01:47:47,360
Speaker 1: during those terms, two of your opponents, you know her

1624
01:47:47,439 --> 01:47:51,479
Speaker 1: running for the Democrat nomination, were part of Ever's team.

1625
01:47:51,640 --> 01:47:56,000
Speaker 1: You know, Sarah Rodriguez, current Lieutenant governor, Mendala Barnes, the

1626
01:47:56,040 --> 01:47:59,120
Speaker 1: former lieutenant governor. And they're both vying to be the

1627
01:47:59,160 --> 01:48:02,200
Speaker 1: Democrat who will you know, run against you in November?

1628
01:48:02,800 --> 01:48:05,360
Speaker 1: And I had noticed, I think it was Mendela Barnes

1629
01:48:05,479 --> 01:48:09,040
Speaker 1: was trying to sort of make Hay with this utility

1630
01:48:09,120 --> 01:48:11,479
Speaker 1: rate increase too, and I think you had pushed back

1631
01:48:11,520 --> 01:48:13,719
Speaker 1: at Hims. Wait, wait a minute, you know you're part

1632
01:48:13,720 --> 01:48:16,280
Speaker 1: of this any comment on that?

1633
01:48:17,560 --> 01:48:21,439
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, you notice that we didn't take that lying down.

1634
01:48:22,360 --> 01:48:27,280
Speaker 4: We answer those things when somebody is trying to have

1635
01:48:27,400 --> 01:48:30,519
Speaker 4: it both ways, as mister Barnes did. He was the

1636
01:48:30,560 --> 01:48:36,240
Speaker 4: lieutenant governor when Governor Evers named those Public Service Commission members.

1637
01:48:36,840 --> 01:48:39,599
Speaker 4: They were the robber stamp that were allowing this two

1638
01:48:39,640 --> 01:48:45,280
Speaker 4: billion dollars plus of rate increases. And so Mandela was

1639
01:48:45,400 --> 01:48:48,680
Speaker 4: right there for him to be critical of me in

1640
01:48:48,720 --> 01:48:49,320
Speaker 4: any way.

1641
01:48:49,760 --> 01:48:51,719
Speaker 5: I think he should look in the mirror.

1642
01:48:52,720 --> 01:48:55,479
Speaker 1: And I was also wondering if you could comment on

1643
01:48:55,840 --> 01:48:59,840
Speaker 1: just the state of your opponents. I will say it's

1644
01:48:59,880 --> 01:49:05,080
Speaker 1: an absolute clown show, just a clown car. I mean,

1645
01:49:05,120 --> 01:49:10,719
Speaker 1: you have Francesca Hong being the Democrat front runner. According

1646
01:49:10,720 --> 01:49:16,840
Speaker 1: to the Marquette Pole, she's a card carrying socialist. I mean,

1647
01:49:16,880 --> 01:49:20,400
Speaker 1: any comment on Francesca Hong and what that would do

1648
01:49:20,560 --> 01:49:24,240
Speaker 1: to the state, well.

1649
01:49:24,479 --> 01:49:25,760
Speaker 5: I mean, think about it.

1650
01:49:26,880 --> 01:49:31,479
Speaker 4: You've got probably three or four people that truly fit

1651
01:49:31,520 --> 01:49:35,800
Speaker 4: the mold of being described as a socialist, and the

1652
01:49:35,840 --> 01:49:39,760
Speaker 4: Democrats have went so far left and it makes Francesca

1653
01:49:39,840 --> 01:49:42,400
Speaker 4: Hong a legitimate candidate in this race.

1654
01:49:42,800 --> 01:49:43,799
Speaker 5: If this would have been.

1655
01:49:43,880 --> 01:49:47,759
Speaker 4: Twelve or twenty years ago, people would have said even Democrats,

1656
01:49:47,800 --> 01:49:49,639
Speaker 4: when you're crazy, that will never happen.

1657
01:49:49,920 --> 01:49:51,240
Speaker 5: Well, it's not crazy now.

1658
01:49:51,640 --> 01:49:56,200
Speaker 4: And it's amazing to watch somebody like Mandela Barnes, who

1659
01:49:56,280 --> 01:50:01,560
Speaker 4: came in as basic the leader when he originally announced

1660
01:50:02,200 --> 01:50:04,920
Speaker 4: he may not be the leader now. Francesca Hong may

1661
01:50:04,920 --> 01:50:08,200
Speaker 4: be the leader of the Democrat field. But the thing

1662
01:50:08,240 --> 01:50:11,280
Speaker 4: that I you know, the Democrats are going to decide

1663
01:50:11,280 --> 01:50:14,320
Speaker 4: what they're going to do. I'm taking my message to

1664
01:50:14,400 --> 01:50:17,080
Speaker 4: all of the people who stated Wisconsin as you highlighted,

1665
01:50:17,120 --> 01:50:21,200
Speaker 4: we talk about the economy and affordability. We're talking about

1666
01:50:21,240 --> 01:50:24,280
Speaker 4: how we make Wisconsin one of the great states in America,

1667
01:50:24,320 --> 01:50:27,120
Speaker 4: wanting because that's what's going to happen in this election.

1668
01:50:27,680 --> 01:50:29,040
Speaker 5: We are going to choose the.

1669
01:50:29,000 --> 01:50:32,800
Speaker 4: Wolkenbroke route of Minnesota and Illinois, or are we going

1670
01:50:32,840 --> 01:50:35,240
Speaker 4: to be one of the great states of America. I

1671
01:50:35,320 --> 01:50:39,200
Speaker 4: believe the good people of Wisconsin can be one of

1672
01:50:39,240 --> 01:50:42,800
Speaker 4: the great states in America. And that's the message we

1673
01:50:42,880 --> 01:50:48,840
Speaker 4: share every day, a vision of hope, opportunity, and prosperity.

1674
01:50:49,560 --> 01:50:51,200
Speaker 1: Well, I think that's a good note to end the

1675
01:50:51,200 --> 01:50:54,080
Speaker 1: interview on Congressman Tiffany. I know you're a very busy man.

1676
01:50:54,120 --> 01:50:56,519
Speaker 1: I appreciate you taking the time out to speak with

1677
01:50:56,560 --> 01:50:59,880
Speaker 1: me and my audience and keep up up the good works.

1678
01:51:00,000 --> 01:51:02,160
Speaker 1: They tuned to everyone. We come back after a break,

1679
01:51:03,840 --> 01:51:06,360
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the programs. So I have one last

1680
01:51:06,800 --> 01:51:14,800
Speaker 1: crazy piece of audio for all of you. Birthright citizenship.

1681
01:51:16,320 --> 01:51:22,960
Speaker 1: Birthright citizenship. This is this debate in front of the

1682
01:51:23,080 --> 01:51:27,680
Speaker 1: US Supreme Court, and Donald Trump, of course wants to

1683
01:51:27,680 --> 01:51:31,760
Speaker 1: get rid of birthright citizenship. And so you have Kantanji

1684
01:51:31,840 --> 01:51:36,960
Speaker 1: Brown Jackson, who is I'm just gonna say it, like

1685
01:51:37,040 --> 01:51:40,679
Speaker 1: wholly unqualified to be on the US Supreme Court, who

1686
01:51:40,720 --> 01:51:44,040
Speaker 1: made the most nonsensical argument that's perhaps ever come out

1687
01:51:44,040 --> 01:51:46,400
Speaker 1: of the mouth of a Supreme of a Supreme Court

1688
01:51:46,520 --> 01:51:51,559
Speaker 1: justice in an effort to I guess poke holes in

1689
01:51:51,600 --> 01:51:56,160
Speaker 1: the Trump Trump Administration's arguments to get rid of birthright citizenship.

1690
01:51:56,240 --> 01:51:59,920
Speaker 1: She's defending it in a sense. Here is what she said.

1691
01:52:00,680 --> 01:52:04,840
Speaker 11: I was thinking about this, and I think there are

1692
01:52:04,920 --> 01:52:08,120
Speaker 11: various sources that say this that you can have. You

1693
01:52:08,200 --> 01:52:12,799
Speaker 11: obviously have permanent allegiance based on being born in whatever

1694
01:52:12,840 --> 01:52:16,960
Speaker 11: country you're from. That's what everybody recognizes. But you also

1695
01:52:17,120 --> 01:52:21,360
Speaker 11: have local allegiance when you are on the soil of

1696
01:52:21,520 --> 01:52:25,120
Speaker 11: this other sovereign. And I was thinking, you know, I'm

1697
01:52:25,560 --> 01:52:28,840
Speaker 11: i a US citizen and visiting Japan, and what it

1698
01:52:28,960 --> 01:52:32,240
Speaker 11: means is that, you know, if I steal someone's wallet

1699
01:52:32,400 --> 01:52:39,360
Speaker 11: in Japan, the Japanese authorities can arrest me and prosecute me.

1700
01:52:40,400 --> 01:52:44,679
Speaker 11: It's allegiance, meaning can they control you as a matter

1701
01:52:44,720 --> 01:52:47,160
Speaker 11: of law. I can also rely on them if my

1702
01:52:47,280 --> 01:52:51,240
Speaker 11: wallet is stolen to you know, under Japanese law, go

1703
01:52:51,320 --> 01:52:54,760
Speaker 11: and prosecute the person who has stolen it. So there's

1704
01:52:54,800 --> 01:52:58,720
Speaker 11: this relationship based on even though I'm a temporary traveler,

1705
01:52:59,000 --> 01:53:03,960
Speaker 11: I'm just on VAKA in Japan, I'm still locally owing

1706
01:53:04,680 --> 01:53:06,240
Speaker 11: allegiance in that set.

1707
01:53:07,240 --> 01:53:10,120
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, they can arrest you and put you in jail,

1708
01:53:10,360 --> 01:53:12,800
Speaker 1: but what does that have to do with whether or

1709
01:53:12,840 --> 01:53:18,080
Speaker 1: not your kids should get automatic citizenship of the country

1710
01:53:18,479 --> 01:53:21,080
Speaker 1: that you stole the wallet in? Like, what is she

1711
01:53:21,160 --> 01:53:26,800
Speaker 1: even talking about? So if I go to France and

1712
01:53:26,840 --> 01:53:29,439
Speaker 1: I steal a wallet, which I'm not gonna do, Okay,

1713
01:53:29,720 --> 01:53:31,719
Speaker 1: I'd go to France, but I wouldn't steal the wallet,

1714
01:53:32,200 --> 01:53:35,880
Speaker 1: does that make me a French citizen or does that

1715
01:53:36,080 --> 01:53:39,040
Speaker 1: demonstrate I have allegiance to France and if I have

1716
01:53:39,320 --> 01:53:43,240
Speaker 1: a baby in France, the baby should automatically be French?

1717
01:53:43,360 --> 01:53:46,519
Speaker 1: Like what is she talking about? You know what's terrifying

1718
01:53:46,520 --> 01:53:49,960
Speaker 1: about Kantanchi bron Jackson is that this is not an anomaly.

1719
01:53:50,080 --> 01:53:52,800
Speaker 1: This is not just like one bad moment she had.

1720
01:53:53,600 --> 01:53:59,479
Speaker 1: She is apparently routinely she's even you know, even splitting

1721
01:53:59,479 --> 01:54:03,120
Speaker 1: with the left dowing justices. This is how out there

1722
01:54:03,160 --> 01:54:06,280
Speaker 1: she is. So there was this ruling. Of course, this

1723
01:54:06,360 --> 01:54:11,799
Speaker 1: week eight to one that Colorado's ban on talk therapy

1724
01:54:11,880 --> 01:54:17,879
Speaker 1: violated the First Amendment. Six conservatives agreed, both liberal justices agreed,

1725
01:54:17,960 --> 01:54:25,400
Speaker 1: but not Jackson. She wrote a thirty five page descent

1726
01:54:26,920 --> 01:54:30,160
Speaker 1: trying to explain why everyone, including Kagan and you know

1727
01:54:30,680 --> 01:54:34,800
Speaker 1: why they're wrong and she's right. She read it aloud

1728
01:54:35,000 --> 01:54:41,360
Speaker 1: from the bench. It's just unbelievable. Apparently, three separate eight

1729
01:54:41,400 --> 01:54:44,360
Speaker 1: to one rulings across three years, she is the lone

1730
01:54:44,400 --> 01:54:50,040
Speaker 1: dissenter every time. Amy Cony Barrett wrote in the Colorado

1731
01:54:50,080 --> 01:54:54,600
Speaker 1: case at Jackson quote decries an imperial executive while embracing

1732
01:54:54,720 --> 01:55:00,440
Speaker 1: an imperial judiciary. It's really terrified. Apparently she she talks

1733
01:55:00,520 --> 01:55:04,400
Speaker 1: the most too. Somebody added up all the words that

1734
01:55:04,440 --> 01:55:11,360
Speaker 1: the justices speak during oral arguments, and per oral argument,

1735
01:55:11,440 --> 01:55:15,200
Speaker 1: she spoke the most. I've seen one thing, three hundred

1736
01:55:15,200 --> 01:55:19,680
Speaker 1: and fifty words, whereas the next closest justice was nine

1737
01:55:19,760 --> 01:55:22,080
Speaker 1: hundred words. And of course you have Clarence Thomas. I

1738
01:55:22,080 --> 01:55:26,680
Speaker 1: think on the opposite spectrum, that is a statement, if

1739
01:55:26,720 --> 01:55:29,160
Speaker 1: there never was one, that just speaking a lot is

1740
01:55:29,200 --> 01:55:34,480
Speaker 1: not necessarily correlated with intelligence. It's not necessarily correlated with intelligence.

1741
01:55:34,760 --> 01:55:36,720
Speaker 1: By the way, in the last minute or so that

1742
01:55:36,760 --> 01:55:38,960
Speaker 1: I have here, I just kind of want to give

1743
01:55:38,960 --> 01:55:43,040
Speaker 1: a shout out to NASA and the Artemis astronauts. I

1744
01:55:43,040 --> 01:55:45,720
Speaker 1: don't really have time to get into that, but I

1745
01:55:45,800 --> 01:55:48,880
Speaker 1: really loved the space travel stuff. I think it's a

1746
01:55:49,000 --> 01:55:52,800
Speaker 1: rare moment of unity in a very divided country. I

1747
01:55:52,840 --> 01:55:55,360
Speaker 1: love the patriotism. We all come together, we root for

1748
01:55:55,400 --> 01:56:01,760
Speaker 1: these astronauts. It's a monumental technological achievement. And in the bravery,

1749
01:56:01,840 --> 01:56:03,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I wouldn't do it. So if I was

1750
01:56:03,480 --> 01:56:05,880
Speaker 1: offered the ability, Jessica, you can go into space, I

1751
01:56:05,880 --> 01:56:09,240
Speaker 1: would say no, thank you. It would be terrified to

1752
01:56:09,320 --> 01:56:12,600
Speaker 1: do that. So just the bravery it takes to get

1753
01:56:12,640 --> 01:56:17,880
Speaker 1: in that you know machine and go around the moon.

1754
01:56:18,200 --> 01:56:22,280
Speaker 1: So astronauts have not gone to the moon. There hasn't

1755
01:56:22,280 --> 01:56:25,400
Speaker 1: been a lunar mission since with you know, a man cruise,

1756
01:56:25,480 --> 01:56:32,680
Speaker 1: since Apollo seventeen and nineteen seventy two. And Jane Certain

1757
01:56:32,800 --> 01:56:36,480
Speaker 1: he was the commander of Apollo seventeen. He famously said,

1758
01:56:37,600 --> 01:56:39,560
Speaker 1: because he put foot on the moon. He said, we

1759
01:56:39,680 --> 01:56:42,720
Speaker 1: leave as we came, and God willing, as we shall

1760
01:56:42,760 --> 01:56:48,520
Speaker 1: return with peace and hope for all of mankind. And

1761
01:56:48,600 --> 01:56:51,480
Speaker 1: it's astonishing in a way, that we haven't been back

1762
01:56:51,520 --> 01:56:56,160
Speaker 1: to the Moon since nineteen seventy two, or I mean

1763
01:56:56,160 --> 01:56:58,400
Speaker 1: they're not land they're not putting feet on the Moon

1764
01:56:58,440 --> 01:57:00,720
Speaker 1: this time, but apparently that's in the works for twenty

1765
01:57:00,800 --> 01:57:04,160
Speaker 1: twenty eight. The distance between the Earth and the Moon,

1766
01:57:04,560 --> 01:57:07,720
Speaker 1: it's two hundred and thirty eight thousand, eight hundred and

1767
01:57:07,760 --> 01:57:13,120
Speaker 1: fifty five miles. That's pretty amazing. What they're going to

1768
01:57:13,120 --> 01:57:15,520
Speaker 1: be doing is using the Moon's gravity to whip the

1769
01:57:15,560 --> 01:57:19,400
Speaker 1: spacecraft back toward the Earth without needing a massive engine

1770
01:57:20,000 --> 01:57:23,680
Speaker 1: to burn. This will be a new human distance record.

1771
01:57:23,680 --> 01:57:28,000
Speaker 1: They are going forty seven hundred miles beyond the far

1772
01:57:28,280 --> 01:57:31,839
Speaker 1: side of the Moon. They're going to essentially be orbiting

1773
01:57:32,720 --> 01:57:39,440
Speaker 1: the Moon. This is an astonishing feet for humankind, for mankind,

1774
01:57:40,160 --> 01:57:44,040
Speaker 1: it's incredible, and of course we watch with baited breath.

1775
01:57:44,080 --> 01:57:48,080
Speaker 1: They'll be splashing back safely, one hopes in ten days.

1776
01:57:48,240 --> 01:57:51,480
Speaker 1: In about ten days. By the way, I want to

1777
01:57:51,480 --> 01:57:53,920
Speaker 1: give one other shout out. I'm a movie buff. Go

1778
01:57:53,960 --> 01:57:56,520
Speaker 1: see that movie with Ryan Gosling. If you like movies

1779
01:57:56,560 --> 01:57:58,960
Speaker 1: and you like space. It's called Hell Mary Project. It

1780
01:57:59,000 --> 01:58:01,800
Speaker 1: made me cry about for a rock. Okay, I was

1781
01:58:01,880 --> 01:58:05,160
Speaker 1: crying about a rock. Really good Space movie in the

1782
01:58:05,160 --> 01:58:08,040
Speaker 1: theaters right now. All right, thanks everyone for joining me,

1783
01:58:08,160 --> 01:58:10,480
Speaker 1: have a really good night. This has been Jessica McBride

1784
01:58:10,560 --> 01:58:11,360
Speaker 1: sitting in for Dan
