00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: Thomas Massey and Judge Editor Politano Congress of Massey on

19
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:15,399
Speaker 1: his microphone being taken to Republican dinner. You've exceeded your time, Epstein, files. Yeah,

20
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:19,400
Speaker 1: a lot coming out on that plush. Maybe Donald Trump

21
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 1: that pulled a fast one on the Democrats by resisting

22
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:25,840
Speaker 1: the release of the Epstein files, only to find out

23
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 1: upon release that he, in fact was one of the

24
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,759
Speaker 1: first people to turn in or talk about Epstein being

25
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 1: a perv to the police officers. Anyway, Plus apparently Trump

26
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 1: called Congressom Massia moron maybe in connection with his vote

27
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:42,759
Speaker 1: about repealing Trump's tariffs. We'll hear from Congressome Massey Dato five.

28
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: Then Judge editor Poltano the column which I get an

29
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: advanced copy of the coming constitutional ice age. Again going

30
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 1: back to the whole concept which is going to end

31
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,280
Speaker 1: up in a government shutdown, the idea of administrative warrens

32
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 1: versus judicial warrens in connection with picking up illegal immigrants

33
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 1: roaming around on our streets. That is what's coming up

34
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 1: on the fifty five CASEE Morning Show. Love hearing from you.

Speaker 1: the Daniel Davis Deep Dive Tom Zawistowski from me the

Speaker 1: People Convention, all right there fifty five karsee dot com.

Speaker 1: the audio wherever you happen to be and enjoy it. Yeah.

45
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 1: Duke Energy was talking with I guess uh the Inquire

46
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 1: the other day describing people's reaction like me with their

47
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,959
Speaker 1: Duke Energy bill sticker shock, Duke Energy's a hiring Kentucky

48
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 1: President Amy Speller speaking with their uh That's so Cincinnati podcast,

49
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: talking about, Hey, Duke's not making more money. We're not

50
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 1: cashing in on this. We only supply gas and electricity

51
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 1: priced at cost in Ohio. But she did say part

52
00:02:55,880 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 1: of Ohio's difficulty this is so ridiculous a power supply

53
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: shortage caused by the retirement of facilities since twenty ten

54
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: in Ohio and other states, during which there's been a

55
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 1: surgeon demand. Yeah, okay, duh talk about utility delivery service.

56
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,080
Speaker 1: She said the well that money pays for upgrades and infrastructure,

57
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: as well as routine and emergency maintenance like outages during

58
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 1: bad weather. But She's quick to point out, in spite

59
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 1: of the fact your bill's gone through the roof, we

60
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 1: didn't have any outages, in spite of the shortage of power.

61
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 1: Flipping over, Donald Trump is rolling back the climate finding

62
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:34,639
Speaker 1: that has been a thorn in everybody's site in so

63
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 1: far as our electricity bill is concerned. Perhaps the end

64
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 1: of the religion of climate science is over. Obama era

65
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: scientific finding that serves as the legal basis for the

66
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: federal greenhouse gas regulation is going to go the way

67
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:51,119
Speaker 1: of the DODO. Hmmm, it's the two thousand and nine

68
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 1: endangerment finding that'll be reversed that concluded back in two

69
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: thousand and nine that there are six greenhouse gases which

70
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 1: are going to kill they pose a public health and

71
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 1: welfare threat. That particular finding was the legal basis for

72
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 1: the EPA Climate rules, climate rules that limited emissions from

73
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 1: power plants and as well as titan fuel economy standards

74
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 1: from vehicles under the Clean Air Act. Your cafe standards,

75
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: you must get nine thousand miles to the gallon. Well,

76
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 1: we can't do that. It's an internal combustion end and

77
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 1: sorry sucks to be you by an electric car. The

78
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 1: final rule is supposed to be rolled out, removes the

79
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 1: regulatory requirements. This is going to be an amazing cost

80
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 1: savings for literally everybody, you and me. You talk about

81
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 1: inflation reduction, Here you go requirements require them to measure, report, certify,

82
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 1: and comply with federal greenhouse gas emission standards. I would

83
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:45,479
Speaker 1: interject arbitrary and random they are for motor vehicles. Also

84
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:53,160
Speaker 1: repeals associated compliance programs, credit provisions, reporting obligations. There you go,

85
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: compliance obligations, regulatory obligations. Heaps down massive costs on all industries,

86
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: and of course, the CAFE standards result in US having

87
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,839
Speaker 1: to buy a far more expensive car or an EV. Now,

88
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 1: they do point out that this rollback will not apply

89
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 1: to oil and gas facilities, meaning that if you've got

90
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:11,799
Speaker 1: a coal plant, I guess is still going to apply

91
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 1: to that. But they are suggesting the willingness by the

92
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 1: Trump administration to roll back the standards for automobiles and

93
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 1: other associated products may result in perhaps rolling back some

94
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,359
Speaker 1: regulations on oil and gas facilities. Keep your fingers crossed.

95
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:31,479
Speaker 1: Trump's been just crowing about fossil fuels being vital to

96
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: our economic and national security. Expanding reliance on them will

97
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 1: help lower energy prices that it's true. Now, it's kind

98
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 1: of interesting they say the repealing of the federal findings

99
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 1: in this rollback might cause some complications with companies that

100
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 1: have a multinational presence. Lower environmental standards here but higher

101
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 1: across the pond or wherever these higher standards might exist.

102
00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,159
Speaker 1: I don't know how those standards are applied to companies.

103
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 1: Do they measure the carbon dioxide exhalation of a company

104
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,040
Speaker 1: and its entire global operations so that they only footprint

105
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 1: that in the countries that have these obligations, question Mark.

106
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 1: Maybe that'll be an incentive for those companies to repatriate

107
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 1: their businesses, bring them back here so you're not subject

108
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: to those international standards. We'll see. But the suggestion was

109
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 1: that the removal of the federal level standards might result

110
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 1: in states implementing their own regulations. Hmmm, huh, question Mark.

111
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:38,280
Speaker 1: Let's say Texas doesn't have its own regulations, California does.

112
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 1: Where would you rather be if you're going to situate

113
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 1: your business. Just just thinking we've got competition going on

114
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 1: out here in the world and the other component of this,

115
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 1: I thought it was an interesting observation from a legal perspective. Now,

116
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,160
Speaker 1: environmental groups are going to challenge this. They're going to

117
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 1: sue and say you can't roll this back at settled

118
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 1: science whatever. They'll make their arguments in court and it'll

119
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,919
Speaker 1: be litigation. It'll be years before that's ultimate resolved. But

120
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:02,919
Speaker 1: the point that was made, I thought this was rather cool.

121
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:07,040
Speaker 1: The administration could decline to enforce the rules and fines

122
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 1: during this whole legal process. Ah, there's that prosecutorial discretion element. Yes,

123
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: there are thousands of laws on the book and the

124
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 1: federal government prioritizes them. For example, they're not out prosecuting

125
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 1: federal prohibition on marijuana. Why, well, because it isn't a

126
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 1: priority for the federal government. Is marijuana still Schedule one

127
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 1: under federal law? And could the feds go after you

128
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: for possessing it? Yes, they could, but no they're not.

129
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 1: They don't have to ford, they don't have to pursue

130
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: that particular criminal prosecution. So how about the same when

131
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 1: it goes to environmental standard Let's just not enforce them.

132
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:41,280
Speaker 1: Let's just project that we are not going to be

133
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 1: coming out in demanding compliance, and YadA, YadA, YadA. So

134
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 1: there's that possibility there. Official said, the rollback will equate.

135
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 1: Are you ready? Here's the savings equate to more than

136
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: one trillion dollars in regulation cuts. That's the cost of regulation.

137
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 1: And for every dollar going into compliance costs, that's another

138
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 1: dollar of that's not going into the economy or maybe

139
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:09,080
Speaker 1: in our pockets. They said they were rescinding the finding

140
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 1: would result in the average per vehicle cost a savings

141
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: of more than twenty four hundred dollars. Oh, look, coming

142
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 1: to the rescue in terms of dealing with inflation. That'll help.

143
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: Trump said he was going to announce a new executive

144
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 1: order directing Defense Department to buy coal fired power plant power.

145
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 1: That's one thing, but he's also apparently going to be

146
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 1: funding five coal plants in West Virginia, Ohio, North Carolina,

147
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 1: and yes, the Commonwealth of Kentucky. They'll be recommissioning and

148
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 1: upgrading the facilities new coal plants back online or old

149
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:50,479
Speaker 1: coal plants put back online. And apparently if they are upgraded,

150
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 1: they will be complying with the federal Clean Air standards,

151
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,599
Speaker 1: which will still apply to oil and gas plants and

152
00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: coal plants power plants generally speaking. That they say will

153
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,080
Speaker 1: allow the United States to meet its artificial intelligence goals

154
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: re industrialize and stop a rise in electricity prices. Artificial

155
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 1: intelligence goals, Well, you and I obviously have a tremendous

156
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 1: amount of the electricity grid. So there's us, and then

157
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 1: there's all the business and industry out there, including the

158
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 1: artificial intelligence business and industry. They use massive quantities of power,

159
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 1: if you haven't gotten the memo, and I saw this

160
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:36,679
Speaker 1: interesting article from the Phoenix Capital Research talking about the

161
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 1: amount of power that we're going to need and this

162
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 1: will result, I think for artificial intelligence. As much as

163
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 1: you might hate it, and trust me, I've got my

164
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: concerns about it in the future of our lives. Generally

165
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:53,680
Speaker 1: in a world with artificial intelligence but using a whole

166
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 1: lot of electricity, and we are going to be dealing

167
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:59,319
Speaker 1: with it. According to Bloom Energy, this is in the

168
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 1: Phoenix Cup article Bloom Energy twenty twenty six Data Center

169
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:07,880
Speaker 1: Power Report. Over fifty percent of new data center campuses

170
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 1: will exceed five hundred megawatts in energy by twenty thirty five.

171
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 1: One third will surpass one gigawatt. Now that may not

172
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:17,559
Speaker 1: mean anything to you, but thanks for the follow up

173
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,439
Speaker 1: sentence to put that in perspective. Each single gigawatt campus

174
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 1: will power as much electricity as the city of San Francisco.

175
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 1: So how much energy will AI need? They ask. A

176
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 1: courtly report from the Ham Institute for American Energy the

177
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:39,320
Speaker 1: United States will need an additional one thousand tarawatt hours

178
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,560
Speaker 1: of digital demand by the era twenty thirties. And this

179
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:43,120
Speaker 1: is going back to my point on AI. You may

180
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 1: hate it, but it will allow you and I to

181
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 1: have finally nuclear power. To meet this demand, the United

182
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:55,319
Speaker 1: States will need to build seventy five to one hundred

183
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:59,560
Speaker 1: gigawatts of energy generating capacity by the twenty thirties. That

184
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 1: is roughly ten times the amount of energy the city

185
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 1: of New York consumes during its hottest days of the summer.

186
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:09,319
Speaker 1: There's your demand. Everybody knows it's coming to. Demand is there,

187
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 1: and windmills and solar panels are not going to fulfill

188
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 1: the demand. It's an impossibility. Physics, I do believe comes

189
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 1: into play here, so analy analysts say, and going back

190
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 1: to the whole States things. States might want to step

191
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:28,680
Speaker 1: in and enact their own legislation in the absence of

192
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,679
Speaker 1: federal standards for regulator or regulating emissions, and immediately thought

193
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 1: of the city of Cincinnati. That's like the city going

194
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 1: its own way and trying to eliminate carbon dioxide from

195
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 1: the environment, as if the city of Cincinnati lives under

196
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 1: a glass bubble. So yeah, go ahead and do that.

197
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: You drive your energy prices up, which has happened in

198
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 1: California with all the shutdowns of the of the refineries.

199
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,479
Speaker 1: You know, the price of gas in California is illustrative

200
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 1: of the broader problem when you when you you impose

201
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 1: all these massive regulations forcing these companies to leave the

202
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 1: state otherwise shut down operations, the price goes up. Energy,

203
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,559
Speaker 1: whether it's gasoline in your car or the electricity that's

204
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 1: powering your home, goes up. Duh. Why going back to

205
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:17,680
Speaker 1: the regulatory rollback of the so called greenhouse gas threat?

206
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 1: Plant food is killing you? Five eighteen Right now fifty

207

Speaker 1: five KR see de talk station. Feel free to call

208
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 1: more to come up, more more to talk about coming up.

209
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:33,600
Speaker 1: I'll be right back, fifty five KRC this five one

210
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 1: Happy Wednesday, five one three fifty eight hundred two three

211
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,320
Speaker 1: talk pounds five fifty on eighteen and t phone related

212
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: in nothing but since I was talking about artificial intelligence,

213
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 1: so I guess it is somewhat related Tech Friday a day.

214
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 1: I have Hatter every Friday year in the fifty five

215
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,199
Speaker 1: Carsery Morning Show. He is a great guy and I

216
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:51,839
Speaker 1: think he's doing us all a great service and I

217
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 1: appreciate interest. I t for sponsoring this segment. Learn a lot,

218
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 1: and we learn about all the pitfalls and problems out

219
00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 1: there in the world. And going with the artificial intelligence. Yeah,

220
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 1: there maybe some great benefits from it, like, for example,

221
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 1: we might be able to get abundant inexpenses someday nuclear

222
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:10,680
Speaker 1: power that works carbon neutral too, by the way, artificial

223
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 1: intelligence might bring that around because we need to compete

224
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 1: with the world. You know, the Chinese are out there

225
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 1: doing AI as well, and we need to maintain a

226
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:18,839
Speaker 1: competitive advantage, which is of course going to require a

227
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: lot of power. But what are they using AI for?

228
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,200
Speaker 1: And this is the disturbing thing, and Dave Hatter's brought

229
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:27,200
Speaker 1: this up multiple times. Artificial intelligence deep fake technology is

230
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 1: becoming so easy that anyone can use it, and mostly

231
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 1: a lot of fraudsters of course using it now easily deployable.

232
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,680
Speaker 1: It used to require some measure of technical expertise to create, like,

233
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 1: for example, a video that looks like a real human being. Yeah,

234
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 1: there was a whole lot of coding or whatever that

235
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,200
Speaker 1: went into it. I'm monobviouce when it comes to this

236
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,320
Speaker 1: kind of thing. But remember what the old videos look like. Yeah,

237
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 1: well it took up pretty sophisticated program to put that together. Now,

238
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,199
Speaker 1: with AI and chat ept and all these different services,

239
00:13:54,520 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 1: is becoming very easy to do it. Impersonation for profit.

240
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 1: Several illustrations, So I'd like the Breitbart article on this

241
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:07,439
Speaker 1: from Lucas Nolan, but it doesn't matter. These were actually

242
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 1: widely reported. Western Australian Premier Robert Cook was put in

243
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 1: a video that he appeared to promote an investment scheme.

244
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:17,679
Speaker 1: So you know, it'd be like Donald Trump saying, hey,

245
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:21,320
Speaker 1: here buy this. It was made up. Fabricated videos of

246
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 1: doctors endorsing skin creams. Be careful what you pay attention

247
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,280
Speaker 1: to on the internet. Maybe that's not a real human being,

248
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 1: let alone a doctor. Deep fakes of Swedish journalists and

249
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 1: the president of Cypress that were used for fraud, those happen.

250
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 1: We got one Singaporean multinational business finance officer paid out

251
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 1: five hundred thousand dollars because he believed he was on

252
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 1: a legitimate video call with company leadership. A video call,

253
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 1: he's talking with someone who is fake, and he doesn't

254
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: realize the person he's talking to on the video call

255
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 1: is is ones and zeros effectively. One MIT researchers said,

256
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 1: capabilities of suddenly reached the level where fake content can

257
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 1: be produced by pretty much anybody. Guy Overt Harvard, he's

258
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 1: a researcher Fred at Hiding talking about this scale. It's

259
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 1: becoming so cheap almost anyone can use it. Now. The

260
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 1: models are getting really good. They're becoming much faster than

261
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 1: most expert things. Faster in the sense that they can

262
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 1: do real time conversations with you. And that's where we

263
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 1: pivoted with another one of these weird, weird examples. It

264
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 1: didn't work out. The fraudster was caught and recognized by

265
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 1: Jason Rebholt, CEO of an AI security startup. This is

266
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 1: a guy who's in the business of artificial intelligence. CEO.

267
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 1: He's got a job open. He's looking for an engineer

268
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 1: and someone well applied for it. Says, Wow, this looks

269
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: like a pretty smart guy. He's noticed some you know,

270
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 1: strange components of this process of going back and forth.

271
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 1: But he did schedule an interview, schedule an interview, and

272
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 1: he noticed the video feed was you know, there were

273
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,840
Speaker 1: some problems with it, and that's where the red flags

274
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 1: he previously saw. He realized it was face. He said,

275
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 1: the background extremely fake. He said it was really struggling

276
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,800
Speaker 1: to deal with a deal around the edges of the individual,

277
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 1: like parts of his body were coming in and out.

278
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 1: He said that I'm looking into his face a little

279
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 1: soft around the edges. So after the interview's over, he

280
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 1: sent it to some research firm that does know how

281
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 1: to detect deep fake videos and said, yep, it's sure

282
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 1: enough was a deep fake. And his point is like,

283
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 1: if we're getting targeted the AI company, then everybody's getting

284
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 1: targeted with it. Yeah. Now here's where I'm saying. I

285
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 1: thought of this and Dave Dave had or confirmed it.

286
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 1: Code word. I've talked with this with my mom. Code word,

287
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 1: because they are gotten highly sophisticated with voice cloning, and

288
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 1: now we're going to have the same thing with video cloning.

289
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 1: I mean, voice cloning now is so good that you

290
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 1: can hear the voice and you can say Nope, that's

291
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 1: the guy. I like, Brian Tom. I think I must

292
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 1: be talking to Brian Thomas, it sounds exactly like him. Nope,

293
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 1: they're so slick and so good that you will not know.

294
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,680
Speaker 1: So you can interact with them and they can real

295
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 1: time answer questions. How do you know if you're dealing

296
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 1: with a real human being or not? As this gets

297
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 1: even better and better down the road, you better have

298
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:11,720
Speaker 1: a code word if you have any question in your mind.

299
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 1: You get a distress call from a family member in

300
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 1: the middle of the night, Oh my god, I'm in

301
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:19,399
Speaker 1: an accident. Code word, like my mom called me in

302
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,639
Speaker 1: the middle of the night. Distressed Mom. What's the code word?

303
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 1: How would a I know what your private code word

304
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 1: is within your family? You're right they wouldn't. This researcher,

305
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:31,840
Speaker 1: warned about long term consequences, said, that'll be the big

306
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:36,200
Speaker 1: pain point here, the complete lack of trust in digital

307
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:39,920
Speaker 1: institutions and institutions and material in general. Think about that.

308
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:44,359
Speaker 1: So good that not that far down the road or

309
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 1: moment in's time, A moment's time down the road. Any

310
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 1: phone call you get, they can already clone the phone

311
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 1: number that you're accustomed to. Oh, that's mom's phone number.

312
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 1: That must be my mom. Nope, you do by that

313
00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:58,960
Speaker 1: You pick it up and it sounds like your mom

314
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 1: on the phone. You don't even know if it's your

315
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,439
Speaker 1: mom or not. You got to question everything. And then

316
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 1: when this rolls over into the video realm, and again

317
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,479
Speaker 1: we're right a moments in time away from them being

318
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,840
Speaker 1: able to create something so real and so interactive with

319
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: your real time that you will not know. You're not

320
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,680
Speaker 1: going to be able to trust anything. That sounds like

321
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 1: a terrible, terrible direction for the world. Yeah, a downside

322
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,439
Speaker 1: of artificial intelligence five twenty seven. Feel free to call

00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:47,159
Speaker 1: hundred eight hundred two three talk speaking to data centers.

330
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:49,320
Speaker 1: Oh look, it's continuing theme in the news this morning,

331
00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:52,600
Speaker 1: local stories. Today the councils, since a city council are

332
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:54,359
Speaker 1: going to be voting on creation of a three month

333
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:59,679
Speaker 1: what they call interim overlay district, described as applying to

334
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:03,000
Speaker 1: over twenty two thousand parcels of land, including space in

335
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 1: Queens Gay, Carthage, Oakley and East End. This interim overlay

336
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 1: district described as forcing companies interested in building or expanding

337
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:16,640
Speaker 1: existing data centers to go through a new zoning review process.

338
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,959
Speaker 1: Since any department of city Planning and Engagement would analyze

339
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 1: the scope and compatibility with the surrounding neighborhood character would

340
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 1: provide recommendations to the city's Planning Commission, which would then

341
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 1: judge the project on whether it fits with the public

342
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:40,639
Speaker 1: interest planning commit you think market forces would anyway. Planning

343
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:44,040
Speaker 1: Commission also consider things like density scale, impact on traffic,

344
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 1: air quality, ah power and utilities, as well as water consumption.

345
00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 1: After that, the Planting Commission would give a recommendation to

346
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 1: the City Council, which would then approve or deny the

347
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 1: zoning change. Since the overlay district, they say his temporary

348
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 1: city council could also vote to extend it for even

349
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 1: longer period of time, they say nine months. According to

350
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 1: city planner Sophia ferris Row, there aren't any, in her words,

351
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:16,359
Speaker 1: current threats we are rushing to try and beat. This

352
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,200
Speaker 1: said already that suggests you as a bad attitude about

353
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:23,120
Speaker 1: these data facilities. I don't know threats and as they're

354
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:26,719
Speaker 1: reporting is current hocket props to Sidney Franklin over at Enquire.

355
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 1: There are already twenty data centers in Greater Cincinnati according

356
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 1: to the Database Data Center Map, not within the city

357
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,959
Speaker 1: limits for the most part, and the ones that are

358
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,520
Speaker 1: within the city limits described as downtown. But they aren't

359
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,280
Speaker 1: those giant facilities, the one hundred acres of land or more.

360
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 1: So that's you know, I guess effectively, there's probably no

361
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,920
Speaker 1: place to put one of those massive facilities in downtown Cincinnati,

362
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 1: but they're getting ahead of it. City Council apparently going

363
00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 1: to be voting today to approve the zoning study to

364
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 1: define data centers in the zoning code so there's less

365
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,639
Speaker 1: confusion about where they can be built. Also, this study

366
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 1: will do best practices and look at other cities and

367
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:07,240
Speaker 1: analyze existing sites throughout Cincinnati, and oh my god, Todd's Enzer,

368
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:12,439
Speaker 1: our citizen watchdog. They will include a public engagement period.

369
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 1: If Todd shows up, they'll have another opportunity to ignore

370
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 1: the rational, logical, and reasonable questions posed by Todd Zenzer,

371
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:23,479
Speaker 1: which he did just the other day. The follow up

372
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 1: railroad money. This one wasn't widely reported. That's why we

373
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 1: have Todd. He went to the meeting of the Cincinnti

374
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 1: Southern Railway Trust Board of Trustees, so he called it

375
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:36,400
Speaker 1: a good discussion on why the city has not deployed

376
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,280
Speaker 1: the railway money in a timely way. He writes, if

377
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,359
Speaker 1: your call, we began raising the issue of the board

378
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:43,680
Speaker 1: in their February meeting a year ago, recommending that the

379
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,280
Speaker 1: board established this system where the city would draw down

380
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 1: the money only when needed instead of the quarterly tranches

381
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,119
Speaker 1: it's currently receiving from the trust fund. They're supposed to

382
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 1: have shovel ready projects like RFPs are out. We know

383
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:00,679
Speaker 1: what the proposal says. We got guys waiting in the

384
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 1: wings for money so they can start doing the project.

385
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,359
Speaker 1: That's not what's going on right now. They get the

386
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 1: quarterly draw down from the trust fund, and what are

387
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:13,199
Speaker 1: they doing. They're putting the money in the general Investment Fund,

388
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,119
Speaker 1: Todd writ is. A handout provided by the city at

389
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:20,000
Speaker 1: the meeting with the Railway Trust Fund. Meeting shows the

390
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 1: city has only spent twelve percent of the railway funds

391
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 1: that they got. So the situation is more than likely

392
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,080
Speaker 1: to continue for the next few years. Meanwhile, the city

393
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 1: is depositing the other eight eighty eight percent of the

394
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,960
Speaker 1: railway money into the General Fund investment account, which has

395
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: a balance of its own about one point six billion dollars.

396
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: That money is then generating interest into the general fund,

397
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,919
Speaker 1: which again I would argue, freeze it up from the

398
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 1: obligation to spend those funds on pre existing projects, existing infrastructure.

399
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 1: It went into the general fund, the big black hole

400
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:56,159
Speaker 1: General Fund. Now it's generating interest, he said. As I

401
00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,000
Speaker 1: mentioned to the board this afternoon, the railroad was not

402
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:02,159
Speaker 1: sold in order to generate investment income for the city's

403
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:03,919
Speaker 1: general fund. It was sold to fix our roads and

404
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:07,239
Speaker 1: decaying infrastructure. Obviously, the city put very little thought or

405
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,920
Speaker 1: preparation into how they were going to actually get all

406
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,720
Speaker 1: that money deployed once the conveyor belt of railway funding

407
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:19,920
Speaker 1: began moving. Yay, Todd's inzer. There's going to be a

408
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,680
Speaker 1: legal action on that at some point. I imagine five

409
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,240
Speaker 1: point thirty five right now, fifty five KRCD talk station stack,

410
00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 1: Oh stupid, come in up and share facts, love, share facts,

411
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 1: credit Union, merge with Emory a little on five cars

412
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 1: the talk station.

413
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:39,680
Speaker 3: Don't vote Democrat there he is, well.

414
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 1: At least you have a SoundBite of him. Joe, he

415
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 1: used put out some artificial intelligence and just do a

416
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:49,119
Speaker 1: whole phone call with Tom. Would his whole cloth create it?

417
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: That's right. We are guaranteed human here on the fifty

418
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,640
Speaker 1: five kr Se Morns show, although I guess artificial intelligence

419
00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 1: caller could call in certainly distinct possibility five one three

420
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 1: seven for fifty five hund eight hundred eight two three

421
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 1: taco with pound five fifty on eight and T funds

422
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 1: making it into the stack of stupid. I'll do my

423
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 1: best to be delicate about this when give an FCC obligations.

424
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 1: Although not it's not graphic or anything. It's just absolutely

425
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 1: ridiculous and unbelievable. Now, I will start by pointing out

426
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,680
Speaker 1: this is on video. This isn't just one student saying

427
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:25,760
Speaker 1: something and not have anything to back it up. Now,

428
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 1: if I say that, recognizing all the points I just

429
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,640
Speaker 1: made this morning about artificial intelligence video, and we won't

430
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 1: be able to believe our own eyes. But I think

431
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:36,480
Speaker 1: given all the witnesses that were there at this wrestling match,

432
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,359
Speaker 1: plus the video, we can sure that we can be

433
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 1: sure that the video is real. We have a female

434
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:46,560
Speaker 1: high school. A real female high school wrestler has accused

435
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:52,240
Speaker 1: a transgender opponent of trying to push his fingers into her.

436
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 1: I just say, ho ha? Is that okay Joe into her?

437
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:56,399
Speaker 4: Hoo ha?

438
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 1: During a wrestling match in Washington State sixteen years old.

439
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 1: She is Kaylee Keeler, sophomore at Rogers High School, said

440
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 1: the assault a currnder in his sumber six girls wrestling

441
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:19,239
Speaker 1: match against Emerald Ridge High School. Teen said She's on

442
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 1: the matt, face down. Her opponent, who is a male

443
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 1: who identifies as female, was on top of her. She

444
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 1: says her opponent put his hands between her legs and

445
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,400
Speaker 1: then began trying to push his fingers into her, who

446
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 1: hop said, nothing like this has ever happened to me.

447
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,720
Speaker 1: He had been wrestling. I didn't even know it was

448
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,320
Speaker 1: a guy, she said, unaware that he was really a

449
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,000
Speaker 1: biological boy that was claiming to be a girl. She said,

450
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 1: I really don't know what to think of it. It's

451
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 1: a women's wrestling team, so I wasn't really thinking about that. Like,

452
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 1: I had no idea I'd be wrestling against the guy.

453
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:52,160
Speaker 1: Told her coach about it, said it made her uncomfortable.

454
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:54,920
Speaker 1: Coach promised to look into it. Several days later, her

455
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,160
Speaker 1: parents called the office of the high school. Her mom said,

456
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,440
Speaker 1: this is a huge issue in something that's one hundred

457
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,439
Speaker 1: percent not okay. The fact that this was done by

458
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,760
Speaker 1: a biological male who identifies as a female as an

459
00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:06,960
Speaker 1: even bigger issue for me. Where do we go from here?

460
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:11,800
Speaker 1: Good question. The wrestling coach at Rogers High School said,

461
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,320
Speaker 1: you know, I mos certainly would not put Kaylee on

462
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 1: the mat if I thought that she was competing with

463
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,760
Speaker 1: a male. I will investigate this and looking to see

464
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,119
Speaker 1: if we have a video on our end you do,

465
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:24,360
Speaker 1: I will touch basically you either this afternoon or tomorrow morning.

466
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:28,239
Speaker 1: I'll do my due diligence, you know what. Probably not

467
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:31,879
Speaker 1: going anywhere. Apparently state law there allows transgender individuals to

468
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,840
Speaker 1: compete whatever category they wish to with no restrictions at all,

469
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:43,680
Speaker 1: meaning this was not unlawful. School district was asked upon

470
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 1: follow up because apparently they went silent up until the

471
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:49,480
Speaker 1: second week of January. This matter is currently under investigation,

472
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:51,880
Speaker 1: the district said in a statement. As such, this district

473
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,639
Speaker 1: is legally required to protect the privacy of students and

474
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 1: families and cannot share details regarding an individual, students, or

475
00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:01,639
Speaker 1: specific incidents. You can say is that student safety is

476
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,159
Speaker 1: a top priority in that reports involving student safety are

477
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:08,800
Speaker 1: taken seriously. Yeah, that's a statement direct from legal nothing

478
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:12,720
Speaker 1: nothing nothing nothing nothing serious serious areas safety important, serious, serious,

479
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:16,919
Speaker 1: serious nothing. Pierce County Sheriff's office said they are investigating,

480
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 1: and investigation has been initiated. Now, as for Emerald High School,

481
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 1: where the transgender wrestler came from, apparently there are reports

482
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:26,440
Speaker 1: of girls they have complained about the presence of men

483
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:31,960
Speaker 1: identifying as females in the girl's locker room. Nothing apparently

484
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,359
Speaker 1: has been done by school officials. I guess you go

485
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 1: back to that pesky state law which allows guys to

486
00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:40,480
Speaker 1: simply declare their women and then engage in physical sports

487
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 1: with women, inviting opportunities for this type of perverted behavior

488
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:53,240
Speaker 1: to happen. HM. Who's in favor of that kind of thing? Yeah,

489
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 1: we know where the blame lies. Three eight hundred eight,

490
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 1: two to three Talk the talk station. It's five forty

491

Speaker 1: nine on a Wednesday, and the happy ones see a

492
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 1: big picture with Jack than coming up at seven oh

493
00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:15,680
Speaker 1: five before we get to move forward with status stupid.

494

Speaker 1: show and happy Wednesday to you, sir.

496
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:23,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, sorry for the delay. I know my normal spot

497
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,720
Speaker 3: is a little earlier, but a little bit of a

498
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 3: late start today, So that's all right. Yeah, you're you're

499
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:34,399
Speaker 3: stack of stupid there item. They're the last segment. It's

500
00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,440
Speaker 3: that kind of crap. I don't get it. And the

501
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 3: part I don't get is why are the adults allowing

502
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:41,400
Speaker 3: this to happen?

503
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 5: And I don't just.

504
00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:45,840
Speaker 3: Mean because these are teenagers. I mean the people who

505
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:49,920
Speaker 3: are supposed to be adults in positions of responsibility, who

506
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 3: are supposed to be the bumper guards for society and

507
00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 3: help us stay on, you know, generally on the path

508
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 3: we're supposed to go on, who are allowing this kind

509
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 3: of ridiculous stupidity to be happening.

510
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:06,040
Speaker 1: Are you referring to the adults that allow transgender individuals

511
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 1: to compete in whatever category they wish under state law

512
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 1: in this state? Those people?

513
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 3: That is correct?

514
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:11,560
Speaker 1: There you go?

515
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 3: That is so we got the the alleged adults who

516
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:19,840
Speaker 3: are not who are passing the laws and championing the laws,

517
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 3: and then we got the school district people and all that.

518
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:29,080
Speaker 3: It's it's nonsense. It's absolute nonsense. And and this is

519
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:34,080
Speaker 3: what happens when you allow communism, socialism, when you allow

520
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:37,000
Speaker 3: government rent run by your feelings and emotions.

521
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 5: And that's what the I mean.

522
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,240
Speaker 3: There's no there's no common sense.

523
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:41,040
Speaker 5: To this, there's no reason.

524
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 3: It just defies all the logic to say, hey, hey,

525
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 3: we're gonna let this dude climb on top of this

526
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 3: chick and and what And that's that's nonsense. It's absolute nonsense.

527
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 3: And there's the only solution to it is to get

528
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,760
Speaker 3: Democrats out power. I keep saying it, but it's really

529
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,920
Speaker 3: the only solution. You have to put adults in charge,

530
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:09,280
Speaker 3: people who have common sense and use reason to make decisions,

531
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 3: and not allow these people who will just operate all

532
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 3: by their feelings other people's feelings.

533
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 6: And oh and these are.

534
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 3: The people that are screaming aloud us, so we better

535
00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 3: take care of them. No, those are the people you

536
00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 3: need to stand up to say no, that's not okay,

537
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,040
Speaker 3: that doesn't make sense and it's not right. So you guys,

538
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,120
Speaker 3: when you go to the ballot box here later this year,

539
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 3: don't vote Democrat.

540
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:33,760
Speaker 1: Have a great day, Brian, Thanks Tom, appreciated over to

541
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 1: this deck is stupid. Y'all know what self pleasure is.

542
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,840
Speaker 1: We have a serial self pleasure art. We're in the

543
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 1: UK for this one. James Gathercole, forty years old, picked

544
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,240
Speaker 1: up and arrested after a woman noticed him staring at

545
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 1: her from a nearby seat on a train after passengers

546
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 1: on the same train got off at this East Cordon

547
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 1: stop in South London. He then fully exposed himself and

548
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 1: began pleasure himself while staring at this woman. Happened last year,

549
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 1: get penalties.

550
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 5: So we could get into the penalty box.

551
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:12,400
Speaker 1: All by himself, and damned if he wouldn't exactly got

552
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 1: off the traded Upper Warlington and reported the action to

553
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:17,479
Speaker 1: a rail staff member who got in touch with politic.

554
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:23,480
Speaker 1: With the British Police, footage shows Gathercole being arrested. Checks

555
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 1: on the Police national database uncovered that he was in

556
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:30,720
Speaker 1: breach of an existing sexual harm prevention order and he

557
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,840
Speaker 1: had conditions associate with that order from prior from prior

558
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,280
Speaker 1: events that were comparable to this one. July twenty four

559
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:40,360
Speaker 1: jailed for two separate instances during which he exposed himself

560
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:44,720
Speaker 1: to women and pleasured himself on two London trains. This

561
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:48,360
Speaker 1: protective orders, it's a ten year long protective order issued

562
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 1: after that conviction, prohibited from traveling on public transport without

563
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 1: a valid method of payment, making any form of contact

564
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:58,280
Speaker 1: with any lone woman. He breached that the morning he

565
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,959
Speaker 1: well exposed himself on the train and started pleasuring himself.

566
00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 1: He also breached the conditions of his prison release by

567
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,200
Speaker 1: not being on his property at seven pm. I guess

568
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 1: he had a curfew. Further attested that defense in the station,

569
00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 1: he admitted to two counts of exposure as well as

570
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:18,360
Speaker 1: being in breach of that protective order and the conditions

571
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:22,479
Speaker 1: of his prison release. Jailed for two years and four months,

572
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 1: I would imagine Joe probably dead right on that one.

573
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 1: Let's see here, Oh Lord Almighty. Columbus, Ohio got a

574
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 1: mom accused of injecting feces into her child's ivy at

575
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 1: the hospital. Do what the hell criminal complaces? Hospital staff

576
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 1: saw Tiffany Lee Sewer, she's thirty five, injecting what they

577
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 1: called a foreign substance in her child's ivy. Happened in

578
00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:58,720
Speaker 1: February sixth. On February's staff again saw her injecting what

579
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:00,920
Speaker 1: they believed to be human waste into the child's iv

580
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,280
Speaker 1: A couple days later, that's when they call police. Hospital

581
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 1: staff to officers, they looked at surveillance video of the

582
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:09,200
Speaker 1: child's room that allegedly showed her go into the room

583
00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 1: with a cup. She then put what appeared to be

584
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 1: fecal matter into the syringe, injecting into the ivy line

585
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:17,120
Speaker 1: of the child's left hand. She's been charged with child

586
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 1: endangerment in court the other day, ordered not to have

587
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 1: unsupervised contact with miners generally as part of her bail conditions.

588
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:29,520
Speaker 1: Shall be back in court February nineteenth, and we will

589
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:32,160
Speaker 1: go ahead and give her the Biggest Douche of the

00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,200
Speaker 1: Princeton High School walkout students are gonna suffer from some

602
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,759
Speaker 1: like consequences of that? Hey, Joe, remember when you used

603
00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:21,440
Speaker 1: to walk out of class lover Lasal. Oh, yeah, they

604
00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 1: let you do it all the time. Right, I gotta

605
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:26,040

606
00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:32,160

607
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 1: what your posters said, Joe. Anybody think the Princeton High

608
00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 1: School teachers had something to do with the protest? Just

609
00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:44,480
Speaker 1: steal on that one for a minute. Anyhow, I'm pretty

610
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 1: sure if they walked out of school, like maybe to

611
00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:50,680
Speaker 1: support a Turning Point USA event or maybe support some

612
00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:54,719
Speaker 1: conservative cause, that there would probably be some repercussions and

613
00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:57,719
Speaker 1: some downside risk and consequences for that. Anyway, You feel

614
00:34:57,719 --> 00:34:59,200
Speaker 1: free to chime in on that or anything else you'd

615
00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:01,320
Speaker 1: like to love to hear from you if you have something.

616
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 1: Just FYI, it looks like the government is going to

617
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:07,200
Speaker 1: shut down. There's some talk about another continuing resolution kick

618
00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:09,240
Speaker 1: the can down the road for maybe a few more weeks.

619
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 1: They say they need more time to negotiate. Many were

620
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:15,479
Speaker 1: suggesting that the original Continuing Resolution on DHS funding wasn't

621
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:18,600
Speaker 1: long enough to do the negotiations. Democrats are holding fast

622
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,840
Speaker 1: on their list of demands, and of course Republicans are saying, no,

623
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:24,920
Speaker 1: we can't concede it most of these demands, although they

624
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:26,720
Speaker 1: have no problem with some of them, like body cameras

625
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,240
Speaker 1: which have been deployed in moss all over the place.

626
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:32,360
Speaker 1: Thousands and thousands of the DHS folks now have body cameras.

627
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:36,719
Speaker 1: But if they conceded all the Democrats demands effectively, ICE

628
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,479
Speaker 1: would be shut down. Of course, that will dovetail nicely

629
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:42,040
Speaker 1: in the Judge Ennenopolitana's column this morning, again looking at

630
00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:46,279
Speaker 1: general warrens versus administrative warrants, or rather general warrants being

631
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,799
Speaker 1: like administrative warrants vice versa. We had problem with that

632
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 1: with our founding fathers, which is why they require probable cause.

633
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,400
Speaker 1: So we'll see if a judicial warrant obligation is going

634
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:57,120
Speaker 1: to be put in place, that would be a major

635
00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:01,359
Speaker 1: stumbling block for ices well quick clee doing their job.

636
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:03,399
Speaker 1: It wouldn't stop it from doing its job. It would

637
00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:07,440
Speaker 1: be an impediment anyhow, fraud, We go to John Stossel.

638
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:11,640
Speaker 1: He's brilliant, does great job op ed piece talking about fraud,

639
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 1: and I really do believe a lot of this ice activity. Well,

640
00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:18,920
Speaker 1: Minnesota doesn't want the ice activity to occur because their

641
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:22,080
Speaker 1: entire economy is built on the welfare recipients that are

642
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:27,200
Speaker 1: the immigrant population. They get massive, massive infusions of cash.

643
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:32,600
Speaker 1: The school districts are based on money being allocated per student,

644
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 1: so they have an incentive to want the kids there

645
00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:37,520
Speaker 1: in the classrooms. That means more money for the school districts.

646
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:40,319
Speaker 1: Just one point, but all the welfare dollars that come in,

647
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 1: that serves to create a like a microeconomy. And when

648
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:46,439
Speaker 1: you pull out the illegal immigrants or you otherwise cause

649
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 1: them to no longer engage in commerce and industry because

650
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:52,759
Speaker 1: they're afraid to be picked up, well, the foundation for

651
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,120
Speaker 1: your economic model collapses. And that's a lot of what's

652
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 1: going on out there. But behind that economic model is

653
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:02,359
Speaker 1: the fraud that happens when these programs are rolled out

654
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:05,560
Speaker 1: that do infuse money into the neighborhood. We go over

655
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,319
Speaker 1: to John Stossel, right just yesterday, he said, Americans want

656
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:10,040
Speaker 1: to help people in need, but when the government does

657
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:14,440
Speaker 1: that does that about five hundred billion dollars in taxpayer

658
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:18,480
Speaker 1: money gets stolen. It's how the system is designed that.

659
00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:21,440
Speaker 1: According to the United Council on Welfare Frauds Andrew mcclennan,

660
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:26,280
Speaker 1: you're measuring success by the amount of money you put out.

661
00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:29,200
Speaker 1: He put it out. But because of that, government agencies

662
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,080
Speaker 1: rarely check whether their handouts go to the right people.

663
00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:36,360
Speaker 1: Minnesota the latest example. Government officials didn't uncover the fraud

664
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:46,719
Speaker 1: props to YouTuber Nick Shirley articles back at twenty eighteen

665
00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:49,120
Speaker 1: talking about millions of dollars in suitcases being flown out

666
00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:51,799
Speaker 1: of Minneapolis. But it took a twenty year old with

667
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:54,360
Speaker 1: an iPhone to go out there and expose it on Twitter.

668
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:57,200
Speaker 1: After Shirley publicized the fraud, the White House froze billions

669
00:37:57,239 --> 00:37:59,600
Speaker 1: of dollars in welfare payments. Progressive is a little upset

670
00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:03,799
Speaker 1: about that at Representative ilon Omar, complaining what they are

671
00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:07,479
Speaker 1: doing is creating confusion, chaos, trying to intimidate people. There's

672
00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:09,480
Speaker 1: no reason for them to fully stop the funding of

673
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:11,319
Speaker 1: these programs. The only reason they're doing that is for

674
00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:16,720
Speaker 1: pr purposes. Really, Tim Wall's governor, this is on my watch.

675
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:18,799
Speaker 1: I am accountable, he said, But he didn't do anything

676
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:22,319
Speaker 1: about the fraud during the pandemic. Joe Biden said, my

677
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:25,640
Speaker 1: message to those cheats out there is this, you can't hide.

678
00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:31,840
Speaker 1: We're gonna find you. Sadly, they didn't. Of the hundreds

679
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:34,200
Speaker 1: of billions of dollars stolen in twenty twenty twenty four

680
00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:37,839
Speaker 1: to the Department of Justice, barely, he writes, recovered two

681
00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:43,560
Speaker 1: point nine billion. Hundreds of billions they got two point

682
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,200
Speaker 1: nine back. Question, is there something we can do to

683
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:49,800
Speaker 1: stop the fraud with Klanahan, Sure you can. It takes

684
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:52,719
Speaker 1: less than a second to verify things with data connections

685
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:57,560
Speaker 1: these days, but government rarely uses modern data connections. Elon Musk,

686
00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:01,760
Speaker 1: when he ran Doge, complained that government records were not computerized.

687
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:05,120
Speaker 1: Many agencies doled money out without even saying what the

688
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 1: money was for or even where it went. Must call

689
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:12,920
Speaker 1: the government record keeping a time warp. Mcclinahan said, you know,

690
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:15,760
Speaker 1: the relying on rules and regulations written for pen and paper,

691
00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:19,600
Speaker 1: which you look at. A poor record keeping makes fraud easier,

692
00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 1: and some people openly brag about it. During Trump's first term.

693
00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:28,920
Speaker 1: A rapper wrote a song about stealing benefits that Trump

694
00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:31,920
Speaker 1: rushed out for pandemic era relief. Quote. I got a

695
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,960
Speaker 1: shout out to Donald Trump. I just might swipe me

696
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:39,480
Speaker 1: a lump sum that was in California. There's a lot

697
00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:42,360
Speaker 1: of fraud there. The state gave phone subsidies to ninety

698
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:49,279
Speaker 1: four thousand accounts of dead people. Clanahan said, everybody knows

699
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:51,799
Speaker 1: that the United States is the easiest game in town.

700
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:56,000
Speaker 1: Some stolen funds go to alleged terrorists. He said, we

701
00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,360
Speaker 1: literally rang the dinner bell for the whole world, and

702
00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:03,359
Speaker 1: they answered, these are programs people in other countries are

703
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:06,520
Speaker 1: not eligible. But if you're not checking to see where

704
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:09,439
Speaker 1: somebody lives, where they're applying from who they are, you're

705
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:14,360
Speaker 1: not going to find them, he points out. In addition,

706
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:19,840
Speaker 1: many state politicians don't try to find fraud. Handouts mostly

707
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:22,640
Speaker 1: come from the federal government. So local politicians reason that

708
00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:26,160
Speaker 1: people in other states pay, but my taxpayers collect, Why

709
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:27,960
Speaker 1: make a big effort to stop that. Does that sound

710
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:32,359
Speaker 1: remarkably like Governor Mike DeWine. Yeah, the answer is yes.

711
00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:36,680
Speaker 1: Trump recently gave investigators more access to state data, so

712
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:41,000
Speaker 1: fraud could be better tracked. But some states don't want

713
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:45,400
Speaker 1: to reveal that data. They openly stand against the data request.

714
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:49,759
Speaker 1: Tell me that isn't just an like an outright admission. No,

715
00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:55,799
Speaker 1: we want the fraud to continue. And mcclanan points out

716
00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 1: those states are actively suing the government to avoid having

717
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:05,760
Speaker 1: to provide this information. That's nefarious. Whenever comes give Whenever

718
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:09,320
Speaker 1: government gives handouts, it creates bad incentives. Before the government

719
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:13,400
Speaker 1: started welfare payments, Americans were steadily lifting themselves out of poverty.

720
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:17,400
Speaker 1: When welfare checks began, progress continued for several years, but

721
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:22,400
Speaker 1: then stops stop handouts have taught some people to stay dependent.

722
00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:26,520
Speaker 1: What should be done, According to mcclenahan, he says, verify

723
00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:30,880
Speaker 1: eligibility first. Oh, there's an idea. I've been harping on

724
00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:33,279
Speaker 1: this for a while now. It's easy to start from

725
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:37,080
Speaker 1: the proposition that you need to start with the idea

726
00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:42,799
Speaker 1: that money might be fraudulently taken. Let's start with well, roadblocks.

727
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:48,600
Speaker 1: Let's start with verifying eligibility first. That way you prevent

728
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:50,919
Speaker 1: fraud before the money goes out. No one should get

729
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:56,560
Speaker 1: benefits without trying to work. You've got to be looking

730
00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:59,160
Speaker 1: for a job, volunteering, or at least getting job training.

731
00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:03,480
Speaker 1: The best welfare program is a job. Yeah, and that's

732
00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:07,839
Speaker 1: why the work requirements should be there. And that's work

733
00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:11,239
Speaker 1: requirements for able bodied adults. I go back to my

734
00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:13,279
Speaker 1: philosophy of life. You know something, I try to raise

735
00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:16,040
Speaker 1: the kids with this philosophy. You at least better damn

736
00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:19,239
Speaker 1: well pay for your own way. And this is not

737
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:21,520
Speaker 1: to say that someone with a significant disability or other

738
00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:23,719
Speaker 1: disability is impossible to pay their own way. Maybe that

739
00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:25,080
Speaker 1: is the case, but those are the people that we

740
00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:28,840
Speaker 1: really want to help. Americans want to help people in need.

741
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:32,399
Speaker 1: Americans shouldn't be helping people who are not in need,

742
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:35,480
Speaker 1: those who are capable of working. And the twenty hour

743
00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:38,839
Speaker 1: requirement you job training right there. There are so many

744
00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:41,279
Speaker 1: opportunities in the trades right now that you could have

745
00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:45,520
Speaker 1: a career. Someone out there is willing to train you.

746
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:48,839
Speaker 1: You'll put at twenty hours and you might be free

747
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:54,280
Speaker 1: and independent. Some people just don't appreciate the value of work.

748
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:56,760
Speaker 1: Work is, in and of itself, a benefit in life.

749
00:42:57,160 --> 00:42:59,960
Speaker 1: You participate, you earn the right to complain about tax

750
00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:02,160
Speaker 1: For example, I think it causes you to pay a

751
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:04,319
Speaker 1: little bit closer attention to that kind of thing as well,

752
00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:09,840
Speaker 1: but this idea that there are states out there that

753
00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:12,840
Speaker 1: want to that literally are standing in the way of

754
00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:17,200
Speaker 1: tracking down the fraud, going back to their apparently their

755
00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:22,920
Speaker 1: business model. Five three seven fifty five hundred eight hundred

Speaker 1: Good attitude.

00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:10,960
Speaker 6: And Kristiman Smith of Rent. But I'll defer that both

772
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 6: of those and I stick with the team you have

773
00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:17,040
Speaker 6: going on today about working and you know, I got

774
00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:20,080
Speaker 6: to go to the mentor program because I learned this

775
00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:22,520
Speaker 6: principle by myself, and I try to teach you to

776
00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:26,440
Speaker 6: the youth that you know, if you do something you like,

777
00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:30,480
Speaker 6: find out what you like to do, you do something

778
00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:33,560
Speaker 6: you like, you get a job in that field, and

779
00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:36,560
Speaker 6: you never work a day in your life. You know

780
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:38,360
Speaker 6: you're getting paid for your hobby.

781
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:41,279
Speaker 5: And that have carried me so far.

782
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:45,520
Speaker 6: You know, there's time I probably didn't work less than

783
00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:49,640
Speaker 6: two jobs, you know, because I was doing what I enjoyed.

784
00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:53,200
Speaker 6: For instance, you know I wanted to go to the

785
00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:56,520
Speaker 6: Cincinnati Bengals game. I didn't want to pay the high

786
00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:57,360
Speaker 6: ticket price.

787
00:44:57,760 --> 00:44:58,799
Speaker 5: I was a paramedic.

788
00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:02,120
Speaker 6: I got on with them medical staff and I worked

789
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:04,719
Speaker 6: five years with the beams, three of them right there

790
00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:07,200
Speaker 6: on the sideline on field. Paramedic.

791
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:07,919
Speaker 1: Oh, that's cool.

792
00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:13,080
Speaker 6: So I got paid for doing somebody like a good call.

793
00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:18,160
Speaker 6: I enjoyed flying. I got on if you remember Calm

794
00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:23,759
Speaker 6: there that was subsidiary of Delta, and they was in Bankrup.

795
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,040
Speaker 6: Wouldn't nobody apply for the job, So they made a

796
00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:29,719
Speaker 6: deal with the police of Fire if we worked these

797
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:33,520
Speaker 6: odd hours and did the ramp and carried the luggage

798
00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:36,719
Speaker 6: and everything. We got to paid a little stifen, but

799
00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:40,359
Speaker 6: we had all the free flights we could handle kuld book.

800
00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:44,239
Speaker 6: So I liked the fly. So I took that job.

801
00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:48,680
Speaker 6: Man flew flew to Africa all over the place because

802
00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:53,040
Speaker 6: the international flights was easier to get done at domestic

803
00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:56,239
Speaker 6: because they had larger planes and it was less you know.

804
00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:57,319
Speaker 1: Four Yeah.

805
00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:00,960
Speaker 6: So that's what I teach in my into a program

806
00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:05,319
Speaker 6: here with the TS. Find something you like, get your job.

807
00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:08,160
Speaker 6: Don't just say you knew your job. Let it line

808
00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:11,160
Speaker 6: up with something you like doing. Yeah, you get paid

809
00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 6: for your hobby. So I continue to push that knowing, Hey, I.

810
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:20,160
Speaker 1: Mean, I guess as I struggle with this because you know,

811
00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:22,160
Speaker 1: I remember the day I decided I was going to

812
00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:23,799
Speaker 1: be a lawyer. Were sitting around a dinner table, dinner

813
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:26,560
Speaker 1: table conversation with my mom and dad, and I was,

814
00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:29,000
Speaker 1: you know, rambling on as I typically do, you know,

815
00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:30,960
Speaker 1: talking and talking and talking and talking, and my mom

816
00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:33,279
Speaker 1: just shook her head. Or was my dad you know what, Brian,

817
00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:35,040
Speaker 1: you should be a playwright. And I said no, I

818
00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:37,319
Speaker 1: mean then my dad chimed in and it was one

819
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:39,520
Speaker 1: of my parents, No, no, no, you should be a lawyer,

820
00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:42,520
Speaker 1: and I thought, hmmm, that's a profession I might field

821
00:46:42,560 --> 00:46:44,160
Speaker 1: to pursue. And so at that moment in time, I

822
00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:46,480
Speaker 1: started pursuing the idea of becoming a lawyer, which I

823
00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:49,800
Speaker 1: ultimately did. I didn't know anything about practicing law, James nothing.

824
00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:52,840
Speaker 1: I don't know what it was all about. Brian, you

825
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:54,640
Speaker 1: make a good lawyer. I'm like, Okay, that's what I

826
00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:57,000
Speaker 1: want to be. And then I became a lawyer. And

827
00:46:57,040 --> 00:46:59,960
Speaker 1: I'll tell you, James, not every day was a great

828
00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:03,600
Speaker 1: You know, it's a very, very, very stressful job. You

829
00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:05,920
Speaker 1: gotta deal with a bunch of idiots and jerks, especially

830
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:07,719
Speaker 1: if you're in litigation, which is what I was doing

831
00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:11,720
Speaker 1: practicing law in scorched Earth litigation Chicago. A lot of tension,

832
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:14,960
Speaker 1: a lot of significant money at stake, and that is

833
00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:17,680
Speaker 1: looming hanging over your head all the time because you,

834
00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:20,400
Speaker 1: as an attorney, are responsible for your client and that

835
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:24,600
Speaker 1: means you're responsible for the money at issue in the litigation. Stress, massive,

836
00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:28,080
Speaker 1: twelve plus hour days, six days a week. I saw

837
00:47:28,160 --> 00:47:31,960
Speaker 1: that a lot. So did I enjoy it? Not really, James?

838
00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:32,480
Speaker 6: Was it?

839
00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:35,000
Speaker 1: Did it work out for me over the long term? Absolutely?

840
00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:37,799
Speaker 1: And would I still be practicing law if I wasn't

841
00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:39,719
Speaker 1: offered this opportunity here on the Morning Show and my

842
00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:42,080
Speaker 1: dad retired, Yes I would, but I don't know that

843
00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:43,799
Speaker 1: I would have been happier that I was ever really

844
00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:47,279
Speaker 1: truly happy doing it, James. But I dealt with it.

845
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:50,160
Speaker 1: It put food on the table, It fed my family,

846
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:52,560
Speaker 1: and you know what, it was a reasonable way to

847
00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:55,320
Speaker 1: make a living. So, yeah, happiness, you can hope for that,

848
00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:57,680
Speaker 1: but not everybody can achieve happiness in a job. But

849
00:47:57,760 --> 00:47:59,800
Speaker 1: it's still important that you do the job right.

850
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:03,000
Speaker 6: Right, and that was a stepping stone.

851
00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:03,839
Speaker 3: To where you are now.

852
00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:06,120
Speaker 1: It indeed was, and I've said it a million times.

853
00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:08,640
Speaker 1: If I didn't practice law for sixteen years, there's no

854
00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:11,759
Speaker 1: way I could accomplish what is needed for the Morning Show.

855
00:48:12,160 --> 00:48:14,520
Speaker 1: I got exposed to all types of areas of the law.

856
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:17,239
Speaker 1: The depositions I took allowed me to have it, you know,

857
00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:21,480
Speaker 1: interchanges with CEOs and even garbage collectors and everybody in between.

858
00:48:21,600 --> 00:48:24,240
Speaker 1: You know, you dealt with a broad swath of humanity.

859
00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:27,240
Speaker 1: It helps you understand personality types. It helps you engage

860
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:30,440
Speaker 1: in questioning and prodding around and poking around the margins

861
00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:33,160
Speaker 1: of people's positions. And ideas. So yeah, I benefited from

862
00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:37,040
Speaker 1: it long term, but it doesn't mean I necessarily would

863
00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,040
Speaker 1: have landed in a position where I enjoyed my work.

864
00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:42,640
Speaker 1: How do we find out a job or how do

865
00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:44,360
Speaker 1: we find a job where we are really kind of

866
00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:50,040
Speaker 1: not working? Can you get paid for doing your hobby?

867
00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:53,839
Speaker 1: Makes me think of getting an art degree. You love art,

868
00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:58,960
Speaker 1: it is your hobby, You're fascinated by it, it inspires you.

869
00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:02,040
Speaker 1: But can you make a living off of it? Six

870
00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:04,520
Speaker 1: twenty five Right Now fifty five KRCD Talk Station, Feel

871
00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:08,160
Speaker 1: Pretty Time in love hearing from folks doing local stories.

872
00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:22,080
Speaker 1: Six point thirty fifty five KRC the talk Station, Happy Wednesday. Well,

873
00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:23,680
Speaker 1: I was just thinking if I had to get something

874
00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:25,040
Speaker 1: that I wanted to do for a living, that I

875
00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:27,560
Speaker 1: think I would have liked. A Welding is always fascinating me.

876
00:49:27,600 --> 00:49:29,600
Speaker 1: Thanks to being a litigation attorney in Chicago, had a

877
00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:32,840
Speaker 1: litigation case involving welding, and I got fascinated with welding.

878
00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:35,040
Speaker 1: Talk to welders, learned about how to weld just sort

879
00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:38,200
Speaker 1: of on paper anyway, that man, that's that is a

880
00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:41,000
Speaker 1: hell of a skill and it also can be very lucrative.

881
00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:43,520
Speaker 1: So you get to kind of make things that are

882
00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:45,440
Speaker 1: always going to be there. You can stand and be

883
00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:48,560
Speaker 1: proud over your accomplishments, and I don't know, just I

884
00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:50,520
Speaker 1: think there'll be a wonderful skill to have. And again

885
00:49:50,600 --> 00:49:52,520
Speaker 1: you can make fat bank doing that. And apparently there

886
00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:54,439
Speaker 1: is a huge need for welders out in the world.

887
00:49:54,520 --> 00:49:58,040
Speaker 1: So that's just a quick suggestion. Three seven, four nine

888
00:49:58,120 --> 00:50:01,239
Speaker 1: fifty eight two three talk local stories. We go over

889
00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:04,800
Speaker 1: to Kentucky. My friends in the Commonwealth Kentucky police and

890
00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:09,880
Speaker 1: prosecutors are pushing to outlaw glock switches. Hope you know

891
00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:12,960
Speaker 1: what a glock switch is. It converts a glock firearm,

892
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:16,040
Speaker 1: which is a semi automatic pull the trigger once a

893
00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:19,160
Speaker 1: single bullet fires. If you put a glock switch in it,

894
00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:22,040
Speaker 1: you pull the trigger and it shoots like a machine

895
00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:25,640
Speaker 1: gun at a pretty high rate too. Twelve hundred rounds

896
00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:27,799
Speaker 1: per minute, I believe has been commonly referred but it's

897
00:50:28,719 --> 00:50:31,239
Speaker 1: let me just acknowledge. I think these glock switches are

898
00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:35,000
Speaker 1: stupid as well as impractical. I mean, you'll empty a

899
00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:37,640
Speaker 1: magazine in a moment's time and it's going to jump

900
00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:41,040
Speaker 1: all over the place and spray. To maintain some efficient

901
00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:44,520
Speaker 1: accurate firing. These are not the thing to have, but whatever.

902
00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:51,080
Speaker 1: Jason EMBs LOUIV, a Republican who introduced this bill, House

903
00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:53,080
Speaker 1: Bill two ninety nine, you said, they're very cheap, they're

904
00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:54,799
Speaker 1: very easy to get, and they're very deadly. You can

905
00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:57,200
Speaker 1: actually make them with a three D printer. And federal

906
00:50:57,360 --> 00:51:01,040
Speaker 1: law already bans these device. They are illegal under federal law,

907
00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:04,520
Speaker 1: but local officials apparently find it difficult to enforce federal

908
00:51:04,600 --> 00:51:07,040
Speaker 1: law because states have their laws, Feds have their laws.

909
00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:08,600
Speaker 1: You're going to rely on the Justice Department to go

910
00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:10,719
Speaker 1: after a lone guy with a glock switch. Probably not

911
00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:14,480
Speaker 1: going to happen. Meims said, we're not making anything illegal

912
00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:16,920
Speaker 1: that's currently legal. It's already illegal to have this. But

913
00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:20,200
Speaker 1: we're doing is making a state law. We're enabling local

914
00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:22,960
Speaker 1: law enforcement, local prosecutors go after this and get these

915
00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:26,560
Speaker 1: off our streets. They are very deadly. Spike Jones, Kentucky

916
00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:30,080
Speaker 1: County Police Chief or Kenton County Police Chief rather is

917
00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:32,239
Speaker 1: behind this. He's the one that mentioned the twelve in

918
00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:36,040
Speaker 1: a round figure. Twelve in a rounds permitted indiscriminate fire.

919
00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:38,719
Speaker 1: Amen to that brother fully automatic fire. This poses a

920
00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:41,160
Speaker 1: huge risk of the public, quadrupling the amount of return

921
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:43,440
Speaker 1: fire that our officers may be capable of returning in

922
00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:47,000
Speaker 1: an ambush. We need to eliminate that putting the public

923
00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:47,399
Speaker 1: at risk.

924
00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:47,759
Speaker 3: It is.

925
00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:52,719
Speaker 1: So dramatic increase in these according to Sheriff Jones, not

926
00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:56,879
Speaker 1: only other states, but also locally. Apparently possession the bill

927
00:51:56,920 --> 00:52:00,000
Speaker 1: will make possession of the conversion device is a class

928
00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:03,640
Speaker 1: fell on the under Kentucky law. Now, in so far

929
00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:08,040
Speaker 1: as the NRA is concerned neutrality, yeah, they're neutral in

930
00:52:08,080 --> 00:52:14,560
Speaker 1: the position Glock sent a letter in support of the law.

931
00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:18,000
Speaker 1: So they say the bills expected you had to get

932
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:21,960
Speaker 1: a committee hearing date soon. So I'm not a fan

933
00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:23,640
Speaker 1: of them. I think they're stupid, although I am a

934
00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:27,600
Speaker 1: Second Amendment fan. Let's see, got Steve on the phone.

935
00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:30,040
Speaker 1: Hey Steve, thanks for calling this morning. Happy Wednesday to you.

936
00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:34,359
Speaker 7: Happy Wednesday. Did you say Spike Jones. That's that's an

937
00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:38,680
Speaker 7: interesting name. That Wasn't that like a comedic character from

938
00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:42,879
Speaker 7: years like the nineteen fifties or something. Maybe Okay, yeah,

939
00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:46,320
Speaker 7: you know it's whatever. That's whenever you say Dusty Rhodes.

940
00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:49,000
Speaker 7: Because I grew up in Miami, Florida, there was a

941
00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:52,200
Speaker 7: professional wrestler. When I was a kid, that was Dusty Rhodes.

942
00:52:52,480 --> 00:52:54,840
Speaker 7: So I was saying, you know, I don't know, it

943
00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:57,400
Speaker 7: just seems like some of these names keep popping up. Hey,

944
00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:02,360
Speaker 7: not what I called about, though, But Mississippi James was

945
00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:05,160
Speaker 7: talking about work. And I've shared this with you before.

946
00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:08,600
Speaker 7: I'm about to turn sixty four. I did retire at

947
00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:13,120
Speaker 7: sixty two with no intention of stopping working. I just

948
00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:17,320
Speaker 7: wanted to get away from a pressure job. And do

949
00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:20,400
Speaker 7: I still want it to work. And you know why

950
00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:22,279
Speaker 7: I want to work because I look at work as

951
00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:25,600
Speaker 7: a blessing. It's not a curse, it's a blessing. But

952
00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:28,399
Speaker 7: I work three days a week. One of my things

953
00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:31,040
Speaker 7: I enjoy is AM talk radio. So I got a

954
00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:34,600
Speaker 7: job where I ride around from like five thirty in

955
00:53:34,640 --> 00:53:37,120
Speaker 7: the morning to about two thirty in the afternoon, and

956
00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:39,879
Speaker 7: I make deliveries. I listen to the radio. They pay

957
00:53:39,920 --> 00:53:41,440
Speaker 7: me to listen to the radio all day.

958
00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:43,799
Speaker 1: That's great, And I guess you'd probably like to drive too.

959
00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:47,560
Speaker 7: It helps if well, you know, believe it or not.

960
00:53:47,800 --> 00:53:50,880
Speaker 7: There is a little bit of skill involved in driving,

961
00:53:50,960 --> 00:53:54,080
Speaker 7: of course, there is. You're not only controlling your vehicle,

962
00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:56,480
Speaker 7: you're watching out for all the ya who's around you.

963
00:53:56,600 --> 00:54:01,960
Speaker 1: That's why I love love to drive and ride my motorcycle.

964
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:03,719
Speaker 1: It is a chess game out there that gets more

965
00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:06,399
Speaker 1: and more difficult each and every day, and I get

966
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:08,439
Speaker 1: a thrill out of that. It keeps you on your toes.

967
00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:10,520
Speaker 1: If you're paying attention to the road, which I do.

968
00:54:12,080 --> 00:54:13,399
Speaker 5: You tick him out?

969
00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:16,439
Speaker 7: Yeah, you can see him coming up behind you real fast,

970
00:54:16,560 --> 00:54:21,120
Speaker 7: yea to kill me? Well yeah, you know, Thank thank goodness,

971
00:54:21,200 --> 00:54:23,560
Speaker 7: that hasn't. Yeah, well, but it would have been nice

972
00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:25,759
Speaker 7: if he passed you and left you alone in that.

973
00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:27,560
Speaker 6: For whatever reason.

974
00:54:27,640 --> 00:54:28,080
Speaker 3: He's zero.

975
00:54:28,280 --> 00:54:30,520
Speaker 7: You must have done something to make him mad.

976
00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:31,440
Speaker 1: Nope, did not.

977
00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:32,160
Speaker 2: Whatever.

978
00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:35,600
Speaker 7: Well, it's a good thing somebody like you was his

979
00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:38,040
Speaker 7: target because you knew what to do. So that that's

980
00:54:38,320 --> 00:54:40,759
Speaker 7: there's a blessing right here. But I mean, there are

981
00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:44,200
Speaker 7: people I grew up with that couldn't wait to stop working,

982
00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:47,400
Speaker 7: and I'm like, what do you do all day? I mean,

983
00:54:47,560 --> 00:54:49,920
Speaker 7: you know, and I do have some hobbies, maybe not

984
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:52,640
Speaker 7: as many as I should have. I really enjoy my

985
00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:56,640
Speaker 7: off days, more so in the springtime and summertime. But

986
00:54:57,120 --> 00:54:59,399
Speaker 7: I enjoyed them because I don't have off days. Seven

987
00:54:59,480 --> 00:55:02,960
Speaker 7: days a week, you know, So I it's like it's

988
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:06,320
Speaker 7: a counter balance. So the work is a blessing. The

989
00:55:06,440 --> 00:55:10,439
Speaker 7: off days are great, but it's because you know, you work,

990
00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:13,000
Speaker 7: you're off whatever. You know what I'm trying to.

991
00:55:12,960 --> 00:55:15,560
Speaker 1: Say, Yeah, the pressure, the pressure to do a straight

992
00:55:15,640 --> 00:55:17,080
Speaker 1: nine to five, to get up every single day and

993
00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:19,040
Speaker 1: have to show up and be accountable, that is gone.

994
00:55:19,120 --> 00:55:21,359
Speaker 1: Now you're doing what you want, when you want. It's

995
00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:23,520
Speaker 1: a beautiful position to be in. And I applaud you

996
00:55:23,640 --> 00:55:26,879
Speaker 1: for continuing to work even post retirement. That'll probably keep

997
00:55:26,920 --> 00:55:29,920
Speaker 1: you younger and more engaged, and you know, maybe fend

998
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:32,360
Speaker 1: off dementia or anything else by way of health problems

999
00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:35,240
Speaker 1: that people have. Because you, sir, are identifying the exact

1000
00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:38,440
Speaker 1: reason that I'm worried about retirement. I have no blanket

1001
00:55:38,560 --> 00:55:40,959
Speaker 1: idea what I'm going to do to fill my time,

1002
00:55:41,040 --> 00:55:43,200
Speaker 1: and that sounds like danger to me, you know, idle

1003
00:55:43,280 --> 00:55:46,759
Speaker 1: hands being the devil's workshop. Steve, take care man. Good

Speaker 1: them when you want when you go into.

1010
00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:03,840
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, for example, for example, I found out yesterday

1011
00:56:03,840 --> 00:56:06,000
Speaker 8: and I don't know if you've ever heard this. Did

1012
00:56:06,040 --> 00:56:09,279
Speaker 8: you know in two thousand and eight, after Jeffrey Epstein's

1013
00:56:09,719 --> 00:56:13,720
Speaker 8: was convicted, he won the lottery in Arizona eighty million

1014
00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:15,480
Speaker 8: dollars on the lottery.

1015
00:56:16,120 --> 00:56:17,759
Speaker 1: That's a new one. I haven't heard that.

1016
00:56:19,320 --> 00:56:20,879
Speaker 8: You don't believe me, look it up. I didn't believe

1017
00:56:20,880 --> 00:56:21,160
Speaker 8: it either.

1018
00:56:21,480 --> 00:56:24,480
Speaker 1: It's absolutely true, okay, inviting my regular comment when I

1019
00:56:24,520 --> 00:56:26,800
Speaker 1: hear things like that, if you read it on the internet,

1020
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:31,239
Speaker 1: it must be true, said Abraham Lincoln. So there's so

1021
00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:34,120
Speaker 1: much crap out there, Corey, and I've had dear friends

1022
00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:36,400
Speaker 1: of mine who I respect intellectually. He will send me

1023
00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:39,560
Speaker 1: or a statement or something. I'm like, that just can't

1024
00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:42,280
Speaker 1: be right, And so I'll go investigate and look around,

1025
00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:44,279
Speaker 1: and I'll finally realize, no, that has been that is

1026
00:56:44,320 --> 00:56:47,080
Speaker 1: an absolute, outright falls that's just wholly made up. It's

1027
00:56:47,120 --> 00:56:49,360
Speaker 1: whole cloth lie. So and I'll get back with them, like,

1028
00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:51,440
Speaker 1: have you checked your sources before you go send stuff

1029
00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:53,720
Speaker 1: like that into the world. So don't know if Epstein

1030
00:56:53,760 --> 00:56:55,160
Speaker 1: won the lottery or not. But I don't know that

1031
00:56:55,239 --> 00:56:58,280
Speaker 1: that necessarily means it's all fraudulent. What I know the lottery,

1032
00:56:58,400 --> 00:57:01,160
Speaker 1: the likelihood of you winning is like slim to zero.

1033
00:57:01,960 --> 00:57:04,560
Speaker 1: You got no chance. Go play the roulette wheel at

1034
00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:06,520
Speaker 1: the casino. You got a much better chance of winning.

1035
00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:11,160
Speaker 8: Right, Well, this is true looking up, I didn't believe

1036
00:57:11,160 --> 00:57:13,960
Speaker 8: it myself, did some research. It was claimed by a

1037
00:57:14,080 --> 00:57:18,160
Speaker 8: trust that he ran, and I took the cash option

1038
00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:23,040
Speaker 8: at twenty nine million out of the eighty. Well you

1039
00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:25,840
Speaker 8: know how that happening. But unbelievable, I.

1040
00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:29,280
Speaker 1: Tell you what. Y odds are almost impossible and really

1041
00:57:29,400 --> 00:57:32,360
Speaker 1: raising some questions. Joe Stracker has been assigned the job

1042
00:57:32,400 --> 00:57:34,920
Speaker 1: Internet research career Joe Stracker. I asked him to look

1043
00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:36,800
Speaker 1: into it and see if he can confirm the validity

1044
00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:39,040
Speaker 1: of what you said. I have my popcorn out waiting

1045

00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:19,320
Speaker 1: mark swirling around whether he had any connection with it.

1078
00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:23,840
Speaker 1: So maybe some there there. We'll check and see. Let's

1079
00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:25,520
Speaker 1: see what Mike's got before we get the curbbage, Mike.

1080
00:59:25,520 --> 00:59:27,040
Speaker 1: We got Mike on the phone. Mike, thanks for calling.

1081
00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:27,760
Speaker 1: Happy Wednesday.

1082
00:59:28,760 --> 00:59:33,240
Speaker 9: Hi, Brian, I kind of andy. But before that, I'd

1083
00:59:33,280 --> 00:59:35,120
Speaker 9: like to see the side of that clip that holds

1084
00:59:35,160 --> 00:59:36,040
Speaker 9: twelve hundred bullets.

1085
00:59:37,800 --> 00:59:40,200
Speaker 1: Oh the magazine, Yeah, no, it's not a clips magazine.

1086
00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:42,160
Speaker 1: I got correct in the record there. Yeah, I don't

1087
00:59:42,160 --> 00:59:45,320
Speaker 1: believe they have them. They do make drum they make

1088
00:59:45,440 --> 00:59:49,160
Speaker 1: drum mags. They make drum bags for glocks. Mike, and

1089
00:59:49,240 --> 00:59:51,040
Speaker 1: I think they hold. I don't know if more than

1090
00:59:51,120 --> 00:59:53,840
Speaker 1: fifty or one hundred rounds. They're cumbersome, they're very heavy,

1091
00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:57,120
Speaker 1: and they're stupid, but they do have them. But yeah,

1092
00:59:57,720 --> 00:59:59,479
Speaker 1: you need a belt feed. I think for a twelve

1093
00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:01,840
Speaker 1: hundred per minute a feed.

1094
01:00:02,920 --> 01:00:03,080
Speaker 3: Right.

1095
01:00:03,560 --> 01:00:07,440
Speaker 9: But about Andy Forsher, well, he was on the View

1096
01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:10,560
Speaker 9: the other day and I thought the sec SA they're

1097
01:00:10,560 --> 01:00:13,200
Speaker 9: going to start cracking down on equal of time for candidates,

1098
01:00:13,840 --> 01:00:15,920
Speaker 9: wondering when his opponent will be on the view for

1099
01:00:16,040 --> 01:00:16,720
Speaker 9: them to tack him.

1100
01:00:17,560 --> 01:00:21,160
Speaker 1: Good luck on that one. I know that Trump administration

1101
01:00:21,280 --> 01:00:24,720
Speaker 1: putting pressure on the View for equal time. Honestly, not

1102
01:00:24,800 --> 01:00:27,320
Speaker 1: sure that's the road I want to go down. Anyway,

1103
01:00:27,680 --> 01:00:29,440
Speaker 1: we struggle with equal time here on the fifty five

1104
01:00:29,480 --> 01:00:32,440
Speaker 1: Kerrec Morning Show. Anyway, appreciate the call, Mike. You have

1105
01:00:32,480 --> 01:00:34,760
Speaker 1: a great day, my friend. See what cribbage Mike's done.

1106
01:00:34,840 --> 01:00:37,160
Speaker 1: Welcome back, my submarine or friend. Always good to hear

1107
01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:37,400
Speaker 1: from you.

1108
01:00:38,240 --> 01:00:39,000
Speaker 5: Good morning, Brian.

1109
01:00:39,600 --> 01:00:43,960
Speaker 4: So yesterday the lovely young men and women of Princeton

1110
01:00:44,040 --> 01:00:47,600
Speaker 4: High School suspended the last hour of classes and we're

1111
01:00:47,640 --> 01:00:52,200
Speaker 4: out protesting against ice. Last week out here in Anderson

1112
01:00:52,240 --> 01:00:57,360
Speaker 4: Township nearby community, the Forest Here School District also supported,

1113
01:00:57,440 --> 01:01:00,720
Speaker 4: and they were out protesting. I got another safe wager

1114
01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:04,240
Speaker 4: for you and Joe that something tells me that either

1115
01:01:04,320 --> 01:01:07,400
Speaker 4: in May or November, some of these same schools could

1116
01:01:07,400 --> 01:01:12,200
Speaker 4: be coming back to looking for a tax levy. Instead

1117
01:01:12,240 --> 01:01:14,920
Speaker 4: of just your basic vote no on the school levey.

1118
01:01:14,960 --> 01:01:18,120
Speaker 4: I would like a split screen of these students protesting

1119
01:01:18,240 --> 01:01:21,880
Speaker 4: during school hours, and on the other side, maybe the math,

1120
01:01:22,080 --> 01:01:25,800
Speaker 4: science and reading scores for that school district, and maybe

1121
01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:27,800
Speaker 4: at the top says do you want more of your

1122
01:01:27,880 --> 01:01:28,960
Speaker 4: money to go for this?

1123
01:01:30,040 --> 01:01:30,240
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1124
01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:33,720
Speaker 1: Well, every time they're out, every moment they're out protesting,

1125
01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:36,640
Speaker 1: they're not learning, that's for sure. And I keep reading accounts,

1126
01:01:36,680 --> 01:01:39,200
Speaker 1: so you know lost time in the classroom translates to

1127
01:01:39,320 --> 01:01:42,240
Speaker 1: lower learning skills. That's a problem. And I guess I'm

1128
01:01:42,280 --> 01:01:45,400
Speaker 1: also curious to know, Mike, if the teachers encourage to

1129
01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:47,240
Speaker 1: walk out, if there's going to be any repercussions for

1130
01:01:47,360 --> 01:01:50,040
Speaker 1: kids you just walk out of school, did they have piss?

1131
01:01:50,080 --> 01:01:52,280
Speaker 3: I can do this on video.

1132
01:01:52,440 --> 01:01:57,400
Speaker 4: Yesterday the teachers were out a watching the students protest,

1133
01:01:57,640 --> 01:02:01,240
Speaker 4: quote unquote by the reporter saying that two ortect the students.

1134
01:02:01,920 --> 01:02:05,160
Speaker 4: So yes, the students the teachers weren't supported this now, granted,

1135
01:02:05,200 --> 01:02:07,280
Speaker 4: And I would like to think, and I do think

1136
01:02:07,320 --> 01:02:10,600
Speaker 4: that this is the minority, because I know my alma mater,

1137
01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:13,240
Speaker 4: Elder High School, if I took off the last hour

1138
01:02:13,360 --> 01:02:16,480
Speaker 4: to protest, they would say, Mike, keep walking, You're the

1139
01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:17,600
Speaker 4: suspended or expelled.

1140
01:02:17,680 --> 01:02:20,040
Speaker 1: Well that's what I asked, because I know that's never

1141
01:02:20,160 --> 01:02:22,360
Speaker 1: gonna happen. But you know, I guess I'm old enough

1142
01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:25,840
Speaker 1: to remember a time when that exactly the truth, exactly

1143
01:02:25,920 --> 01:02:29,200
Speaker 1: the case. And fast forward to today. If I'm sitting

1144
01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:32,800
Speaker 1: in a class and I just get up and walk

1145
01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:35,360
Speaker 1: out an hour before school's out, is there going to

1146
01:02:35,400 --> 01:02:36,880
Speaker 1: be am I going to be accountable? Is there going

1147
01:02:36,960 --> 01:02:37,800
Speaker 1: to be am I gonna have to go to the

1148
01:02:37,840 --> 01:02:40,560
Speaker 1: principal's office? Am I gonna be suspended? Are there going

1149
01:02:40,640 --> 01:02:44,640
Speaker 1: to be any repercussions like Saturday school or something? I

1150
01:02:44,720 --> 01:02:46,800
Speaker 1: don't know. I would like to think so so is

1151
01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:49,640
Speaker 1: what's the difference one person standing up but is literally

1152
01:02:49,680 --> 01:02:53,080
Speaker 1: walking out without permission or entire classes full of people,

1153
01:02:53,240 --> 01:02:55,600
Speaker 1: hundreds of students standing up and walking out without permission.

1154
01:02:55,880 --> 01:02:57,680
Speaker 1: Seems to me the same thing that she could share

1155
01:02:58,000 --> 01:03:00,840
Speaker 1: should carry the same penalty, Mike, no.

1156
01:03:01,040 --> 01:03:04,480
Speaker 4: More better example that that is obviously a school sponsored

1157
01:03:04,520 --> 01:03:07,080
Speaker 4: event because and and rightly so, when I go pick

1158
01:03:07,160 --> 01:03:11,160
Speaker 4: up my grandkids from school for whatever reason, the security

1159
01:03:11,200 --> 01:03:12,600
Speaker 4: that I have to go to, I have to be

1160
01:03:12,720 --> 01:03:14,439
Speaker 4: on the list. I have to show my idea, which

1161
01:03:14,440 --> 01:03:16,760
Speaker 4: I have no problem with doing. So if I got

1162
01:03:16,840 --> 01:03:18,760
Speaker 4: to do that to get them out of school early,

1163
01:03:19,520 --> 01:03:22,200
Speaker 4: obviously these are school sponsored events.

1164
01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:25,560
Speaker 1: Well, and I'd like to think the parents one should

1165
01:03:25,560 --> 01:03:27,600
Speaker 1: step up and say something about that, unless, of course

1166
01:03:27,640 --> 01:03:30,040
Speaker 1: the parents are all woke and anti ice folks. I

1167
01:03:30,560 --> 01:03:33,840
Speaker 1: just don't know, but turning our students into useful idiots

1168
01:03:33,880 --> 01:03:36,480
Speaker 1: and ponds in the game of life. This should be

1169
01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:39,600
Speaker 1: used in school as a civics exercise to talk about

1170
01:03:39,640 --> 01:03:43,040
Speaker 1: the separation of powers, the federal supremacy clause, the idea

1171
01:03:43,080 --> 01:03:45,440
Speaker 1: that there are federal laws that are being enforced and

1172
01:03:45,440 --> 01:03:47,440
Speaker 1: if you don't like that, you need to use representative

1173
01:03:47,480 --> 01:03:50,280
Speaker 1: form of government to change the laws rather than walk

1174
01:03:50,320 --> 01:03:51,000
Speaker 1: out of class.

1175
01:03:52,960 --> 01:03:55,560
Speaker 4: Well, famous man once said, you don't let the inmates

1176
01:03:55,640 --> 01:03:56,440
Speaker 4: run the asylum.

1177
01:03:57,160 --> 01:03:59,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're way way past that. And going back there

1178
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:02,480
Speaker 1: the Krushchev's comment we will destroy you from within.

1179
01:04:03,040 --> 01:04:03,920
Speaker 6: Absolutely, yep.

1180
01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:06,400
Speaker 1: Look at Minnesota and fraud, look at fraud. Generally speaking,

1181
01:04:06,440 --> 01:04:08,640
Speaker 1: Look at all the NGOs that are being funded left

1182
01:04:08,680 --> 01:04:11,840
Speaker 1: wing propaganda mills and organizations they are with your tax

1183
01:04:11,920 --> 01:04:14,280
Speaker 1: payer money. This isn't a message you embrace. It's a

1184
01:04:14,320 --> 01:04:16,480
Speaker 1: message the left embrace, which is one of undermining the

1185
01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:19,400
Speaker 1: United States of America and everything that makes it great. Yeah,

1186
01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:24,400
Speaker 1: that's where we are. And that's not only our elected officials.

1187
01:04:24,840 --> 01:04:29,400
Speaker 1: Those are people within institutions destroying us from within with

1188
01:04:29,480 --> 01:04:36,919
Speaker 1: this leftist socialist slash Marxist ideology steeped into everything. Maybe

1189
01:04:36,960 --> 01:04:40,400
Speaker 1: he was onto something. Maybe someone is onto something, Jack, Adam,

1190
01:04:40,440 --> 01:04:42,400
Speaker 1: and certainly onto something. I appreciate the call, Mike, you

1191
01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:44,760
Speaker 1: have a fantastic day, and appreciate your service to our country.

Speaker 1: Thank you so much for joining the program every week

Speaker 10: Thanks so much.

1208
01:05:31,360 --> 01:05:31,560
Speaker 2: Pal.

1209
01:05:32,440 --> 01:05:36,280
Speaker 10: I hope all the guys listening are making romantic plans

1210
01:05:36,400 --> 01:05:43,560
Speaker 10: for Valentine's Yes, it's this Saturday, so start puckering up men. Actually, though,

1211
01:05:43,880 --> 01:05:47,280
Speaker 10: throughout history, it's not always the men who've gone the

1212
01:05:47,360 --> 01:05:52,200
Speaker 10: extra mile. Today's seventeen seventy six vignette leading up to

1213
01:05:52,240 --> 01:05:54,960
Speaker 10: the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of our country's founding

1214
01:05:55,560 --> 01:06:01,000
Speaker 10: honors America's very first and perhaps most romantic first lady.

1215
01:06:01,640 --> 01:06:07,160
Speaker 10: Not Jackie Kennedy, not even Millennia. I'm talking about Martha Washington.

1216
01:06:08,000 --> 01:06:12,200
Speaker 10: Missus Washington went thousands of extra miles to comfort the

1217
01:06:12,280 --> 01:06:15,280
Speaker 10: general and his troops during the darkest hours of the

1218
01:06:15,320 --> 01:06:19,840
Speaker 10: Revolutionary War. It didn't start out so romantic for George

1219
01:06:20,320 --> 01:06:24,560
Speaker 10: Martha's first husband. Yes, she had a first husband, Daniel

1220
01:06:24,720 --> 01:06:28,280
Speaker 10: Custis took her to live. Would you believe Brian in

1221
01:06:28,400 --> 01:06:34,360
Speaker 10: the White House, Yet Virginia Plantation was called. Daniel was

1222
01:06:34,560 --> 01:06:38,840
Speaker 10: twenty years older and much taller than Martha, but then

1223
01:06:38,880 --> 01:06:42,640
Speaker 10: almost everybody was barely hitting five feet. She was still

1224
01:06:42,720 --> 01:06:46,720
Speaker 10: described as strong willed, yet lively and full of fun.

1225
01:06:47,360 --> 01:06:51,760
Speaker 10: And forget the grandmotherly portraits. This young bride was adorable,

1226
01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:55,400
Speaker 10: go look it up. Sadly, she was soon a young widow.

1227
01:06:55,920 --> 01:06:59,160
Speaker 10: Mister Custis died when Martha was twenty six. She had

1228
01:06:59,240 --> 01:07:03,120
Speaker 10: already born four children, only one of whom lived into

1229
01:07:03,160 --> 01:07:07,160
Speaker 10: her twenties. In fact, Brian just sixty percent of children

1230
01:07:07,360 --> 01:07:11,040
Speaker 10: in colonial times reached the age of twenty. When Martha

1231
01:07:11,160 --> 01:07:15,400
Speaker 10: remarried in seventeen fifty nine, George Washington was twenty six.

1232
01:07:15,440 --> 01:07:18,640
Speaker 10: As well as a colonel of the Virginia Militia. In

1233
01:07:18,720 --> 01:07:21,680
Speaker 10: the French and Indian War, George had won a reputation

1234
01:07:21,880 --> 01:07:25,480
Speaker 10: for fearlessness that stretched all the way to Great Britain.

1235
01:07:26,280 --> 01:07:30,040
Speaker 10: Yet as a colonial, the Crown refused to give him

1236
01:07:30,040 --> 01:07:34,280
Speaker 10: a commission in the British Army. Had those haughty dopes

1237
01:07:34,400 --> 01:07:38,600
Speaker 10: done so George might never have wound up fighting redcoats. Instead,

1238
01:07:38,680 --> 01:07:42,160
Speaker 10: the young giant fought for Martha's hand. She had a

1239
01:07:42,240 --> 01:07:45,400
Speaker 10: lot going for him. Not the white hair that we

1240
01:07:45,520 --> 01:07:48,720
Speaker 10: see from the dollar bill, young George had a full

1241
01:07:48,840 --> 01:07:51,919
Speaker 10: head of reddish brown hair. He was almost six foot three,

1242
01:07:52,160 --> 01:07:55,040
Speaker 10: a giant in those days, and still had his teeth.

1243
01:07:57,840 --> 01:08:00,320
Speaker 1: I was going to say something later on.

1244
01:08:00,480 --> 01:08:03,040
Speaker 10: He gottii that were made of hippopotamuses. We're going to

1245
01:08:03,040 --> 01:08:06,480
Speaker 10: be talking about hippos in a moment. As a wealthy widow,

1246
01:08:06,800 --> 01:08:10,360
Speaker 10: Martha did not need to marry. This really seems to

1247
01:08:10,480 --> 01:08:15,280
Speaker 10: have been a love batch. What made George is so special? Well,

1248
01:08:15,360 --> 01:08:18,479
Speaker 10: he must have been because George became guardian of her children,

1249
01:08:19,240 --> 01:08:23,120
Speaker 10: and after refusing to sign a widow's contract protecting her property,

1250
01:08:23,600 --> 01:08:27,280
Speaker 10: Martha gave George control over her land, her money, and

1251
01:08:27,439 --> 01:08:31,080
Speaker 10: eighty four slaves in his own right. George had inherited

1252
01:08:31,160 --> 01:08:34,680
Speaker 10: Mount Vernon from his half brother Lawrence. His plan was

1253
01:08:34,720 --> 01:08:38,800
Speaker 10: to scientifically farm more than sixty crops, and George did

1254
01:08:38,880 --> 01:08:43,200
Speaker 10: that very successfully. All the evidence shows he loved Martha's kids,

1255
01:08:43,240 --> 01:08:46,440
Speaker 10: as well as her niece and nephew and later the grandchildren.

1256
01:08:46,479 --> 01:08:51,000
Speaker 10: They adopted. Their marriage lasted forty years until his death,

1257
01:08:51,880 --> 01:08:55,519
Speaker 10: But as a later fighter, the Great Mike Tyson observed,

1258
01:08:56,040 --> 01:08:58,639
Speaker 10: everyone's got a plan until they get punched in the mouth.

1259
01:08:59,479 --> 01:09:02,920
Speaker 10: The punch for George Washington came with the Revolutionary War.

1260
01:09:03,600 --> 01:09:07,400
Speaker 10: In seventeen seventy five, the Continental Congress made him Commander

1261
01:09:07,479 --> 01:09:11,559
Speaker 10: in chief of its new army. Could Washington have fought

1262
01:09:11,720 --> 01:09:15,680
Speaker 10: on without Martha? I don't mean without her support, I

1263
01:09:15,800 --> 01:09:19,920
Speaker 10: mean having her at his side. George did not return

1264
01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:23,960
Speaker 10: to his beloved Mount Vernon for almost seven years. Every

1265
01:09:24,160 --> 01:09:27,400
Speaker 10: single year of the war, during the bitter winter months

1266
01:09:27,640 --> 01:09:30,759
Speaker 10: when it was too cold to fight, Martha Washington traveled

1267
01:09:30,880 --> 01:09:34,719
Speaker 10: by coach from Virginia to wherever the general was encamped.

1268
01:09:35,320 --> 01:09:40,080
Speaker 10: The first trip wasn't so bad. Martha gave parties in Cambridge, Massachusetts,

1269
01:09:40,400 --> 01:09:44,080
Speaker 10: although George, who loved to dance and play cards, he

1270
01:09:44,240 --> 01:09:47,720
Speaker 10: worried about offending the Puritans up there. Then came the

1271
01:09:47,800 --> 01:09:51,760
Speaker 10: real punch, in the kisser encampments like Jockey Hollow near

1272
01:09:51,840 --> 01:09:56,240
Speaker 10: my hometown of Marristown, New Jersey, and Valley Forge. While

1273
01:09:56,280 --> 01:09:59,599
Speaker 10: the General prayed kneeling in the snow, his wife got

1274
01:09:59,600 --> 01:10:04,800
Speaker 10: a small pox vaccination and cared for his starving, shoeless soldiers.

1275
01:10:05,600 --> 01:10:08,960
Speaker 10: They loved the woman they called Lady Washington, as he

1276
01:10:09,040 --> 01:10:12,559
Speaker 10: can tell by now I do too. After the British surrender,

1277
01:10:12,720 --> 01:10:16,680
Speaker 10: George Washington went on to lead the Constitutional Convention that

1278
01:10:16,800 --> 01:10:21,559
Speaker 10: gave America a limited government dedicated to protecting God given

1279
01:10:21,760 --> 01:10:25,599
Speaker 10: individual rights. Then, when he really wanted to go back

1280
01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:30,400
Speaker 10: to farming, Washington was unanimously chosen to be our first president.

1281
01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:34,000
Speaker 10: George and Martha went on to set the template for

1282
01:10:34,120 --> 01:10:37,880
Speaker 10: all future presidents and first ladies. Brian, I would leave

1283
01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:43,280
Speaker 10: everyone with two suggestions. Visit Mount Vernon. It's beautiful and

1284
01:10:43,439 --> 01:10:48,400
Speaker 10: more modest than you'd think. But then so were the Washingtons. Also,

1285
01:10:48,560 --> 01:10:51,639
Speaker 10: read to your kids and grandkids a hilarious little book

1286
01:10:51,760 --> 01:10:56,080
Speaker 10: called George and Martha Rise and Shine. In this book,

1287
01:10:56,120 --> 01:11:00,760
Speaker 10: George and Martha are two hippos, and a way to

1288
01:11:01,360 --> 01:11:04,160
Speaker 10: start telling their real story. There were two hippos who

1289
01:11:04,400 --> 01:11:07,519
Speaker 10: truly loved each other, just as George and Martha did.

1290
01:11:08,080 --> 01:11:13,840
Speaker 10: Happy Valentine's everyone, and God bless America. Men, Bay Casanova.

1291
01:11:13,439 --> 01:11:15,680
Speaker 1: Well, I'll tell you what I That's the day I

1292
01:11:15,720 --> 01:11:20,240
Speaker 1: got engaged thirty four years ago. This Valentine's Day, I

1293
01:11:20,400 --> 01:11:22,800
Speaker 1: asked my wife to marry me, had big plans take

1294
01:11:22,800 --> 01:11:24,640
Speaker 1: her out to dinner. She wasn't interested Jack, so we

1295
01:11:24,720 --> 01:11:26,519
Speaker 1: ended up getting to carry out thy food, sat in

1296
01:11:26,560 --> 01:11:28,760
Speaker 1: the living room and the kid in the on the

1297
01:11:28,840 --> 01:11:31,080
Speaker 1: floor ate ty food. And that's when I popped the questions.

1298
01:11:31,160 --> 01:11:33,200
Speaker 1: She said yes, And I always say, you know that

1299
01:11:33,360 --> 01:11:35,960
Speaker 1: they're behind. Every man is a great woman. And you know,

1300
01:11:36,040 --> 01:11:37,680
Speaker 1: the best thing you can possibly do as a man

1301
01:11:37,720 --> 01:11:39,719
Speaker 1: when you're looking for a spout is find someone who's

1302
01:11:39,720 --> 01:11:42,679
Speaker 1: smarter than you out kick your coverage, which is obviously

1303
01:11:42,760 --> 01:11:43,920
Speaker 1: what George Washington did.

1304
01:11:44,560 --> 01:11:46,240
Speaker 10: I mean, she would say, by the way, that you've

1305
01:11:46,240 --> 01:11:48,720
Speaker 10: been eating tie takeout ever since, but I know how

1306
01:11:48,840 --> 01:11:50,320
Speaker 10: well paul At cooks.

1307
01:11:50,800 --> 01:11:52,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, she is quite the cook. But you know, it's

1308
01:11:53,920 --> 01:11:56,560
Speaker 1: it just illustrating the value of the importance of a

1309
01:11:56,640 --> 01:11:58,840
Speaker 1: strong marriage and how much that can help you get

1310
01:11:58,880 --> 01:12:00,960
Speaker 1: through the tough times, get through the great times. You

1311
01:12:01,040 --> 01:12:03,680
Speaker 1: get someone to enjoy your life, with someone who's there

1312
01:12:03,720 --> 01:12:05,800
Speaker 1: to care for you when you're feeling bad. I mean,

1313
01:12:06,080 --> 01:12:08,360
Speaker 1: there are so many benefits to marriage. And then needs

1314
01:12:08,439 --> 01:12:10,560
Speaker 1: move over to the financial realities of being married and

1315
01:12:10,600 --> 01:12:13,080
Speaker 1: how much easier it is to have two people working together,

1316
01:12:13,600 --> 01:12:16,120
Speaker 1: you know, sharing expenses and sharing you know, chores and

1317
01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:19,479
Speaker 1: that kind of thing. So, you know, tough times, great times,

1318
01:12:19,640 --> 01:12:21,120
Speaker 1: it is the best possible place to be.

1319
01:12:21,880 --> 01:12:25,120
Speaker 10: You know, Brian, that Amesley is the miracle of my life.

1320
01:12:25,280 --> 01:12:28,040
Speaker 10: I ever would have gotten into this business after leaving

1321
01:12:28,120 --> 01:12:29,800
Speaker 10: law if it hadn't been for her. And of course

1322
01:12:29,800 --> 01:12:32,560
Speaker 10: she's the best mother in the world, along with Paulette.

1323
01:12:33,120 --> 01:12:37,280
Speaker 10: As for first Ladies, in case anybody's wondering, Martha Washington

1324
01:12:37,760 --> 01:12:41,360
Speaker 10: did not adopt any causes as first Lady other than

1325
01:12:41,439 --> 01:12:45,759
Speaker 10: caring for her family, welcoming dignitaries, and preserving her husband's papers.

1326
01:12:46,320 --> 01:12:49,479
Speaker 10: First lady causes came later on. I remember as a

1327
01:12:49,600 --> 01:12:54,280
Speaker 10: kid Lady Bird Johnson beautifying highways and then you know,

1328
01:12:54,400 --> 01:12:58,680
Speaker 10: jumping ahead Michelle Obama, among other things, fighting childhood obesity

1329
01:12:59,200 --> 01:13:02,600
Speaker 10: and now Malania Trump. As you can see in her documentary,

1330
01:13:02,680 --> 01:13:05,439
Speaker 10: I hope everybody goes to see that, focusing on other

1331
01:13:05,560 --> 01:13:09,840
Speaker 10: children's issues, including cyber bullying. What I hope we do

1332
01:13:10,080 --> 01:13:14,920
Speaker 10: not see again, Brian, is first ladies or gentlemen running

1333
01:13:15,040 --> 01:13:18,320
Speaker 10: the government the way Edith Wilson did when Woodrow had

1334
01:13:18,360 --> 01:13:22,439
Speaker 10: his ohh, and the way doctor Jill Biden did sitting

1335
01:13:22,600 --> 01:13:26,160
Speaker 10: in at cabinet meetings and who knows what else for

1336
01:13:26,280 --> 01:13:29,440
Speaker 10: reasons obvious to everybody except Democrats.

1337
01:13:30,320 --> 01:13:33,519
Speaker 1: Isn't that the truth? Boy? We learned a lot after

1338
01:13:33,640 --> 01:13:36,640
Speaker 1: Biden was out. Anyhow, Jack Aviden, appreciate you coming to

Speaker 1: Access Act with Adam Miller from the Concerned Veterans of

1348
01:14:04,360 --> 01:14:06,439
Speaker 1: America looking at for my veteran friends out there, and

1349
01:14:06,640 --> 01:14:08,519
Speaker 1: that'll be in the next segment. But between now and then,

1350
01:14:08,560 --> 01:14:10,360
Speaker 1: if phone calls me, nice five to three, seven four

1351
01:14:10,400 --> 01:14:12,920
Speaker 1: nine fifty eight hundred eight two three talk. But thinking

1352
01:14:12,960 --> 01:14:15,599
Speaker 1: of Maureen and the voting challenges we had in Georgia,

1353
01:14:15,680 --> 01:14:20,560
Speaker 1: most notably, yeah, the Fulton County election, which starting to

1354
01:14:20,840 --> 01:14:23,280
Speaker 1: solidify here in terms of what they're finding. Now I

1355
01:14:23,360 --> 01:14:27,639
Speaker 1: found out the FBI agents executed a search warrant Union County, Georgia,

1356
01:14:29,520 --> 01:14:33,720
Speaker 1: and the search warrant has just been released. And this

1357
01:14:33,920 --> 01:14:36,479
Speaker 1: is where the rubber may meet the road. Affidavid, filed

1358
01:14:36,479 --> 01:14:40,639
Speaker 1: by FBI Special Agent Hugh Raymond Evans, filed last month,

1359
01:14:40,920 --> 01:14:45,160
Speaker 1: just unsealed yesterday, laying out five categories of confirmed problems

1360
01:14:45,200 --> 01:14:49,599
Speaker 1: in Fulton County's handling of ballots, which concerns have been

1361
01:14:49,640 --> 01:14:51,760
Speaker 1: swirling around for a long time, going all the way

1362
01:14:51,800 --> 01:14:54,800
Speaker 1: back to twenty twenty. Now, all the lawsuits that were

1363
01:14:54,840 --> 01:14:57,840
Speaker 1: filed in connection with voter voting irregularities in the twenty

1364
01:14:57,880 --> 01:15:00,320
Speaker 1: twenty election, most all of them were thrown out because

1365
01:15:00,320 --> 01:15:04,120
Speaker 1: of arguments about lack of standing. At pesky standing thing.

1366
01:15:04,160 --> 01:15:05,960
Speaker 1: You have to sort of have a unique harm that

1367
01:15:06,760 --> 01:15:10,559
Speaker 1: befell you or whoever you're representing in order to assert

1368
01:15:10,640 --> 01:15:12,639
Speaker 1: standing in a court. If you suffer the same fate

1369
01:15:12,680 --> 01:15:14,599
Speaker 1: as everybody else, sorry sucks to be you. You can't

1370
01:15:14,640 --> 01:15:16,840
Speaker 1: get a form in a federal court. That's kind of

1371
01:15:16,840 --> 01:15:19,280
Speaker 1: where we were, But that doesn't mean the FBI wasn't

1372
01:15:19,320 --> 01:15:21,240
Speaker 1: looking into it. So we got the FBI and the

1373
01:15:21,360 --> 01:15:25,719
Speaker 1: warrant that was filed, served, and then produced yesterday. Evans

1374
01:15:25,800 --> 01:15:28,919
Speaker 1: filed the affidavid last month for the purpose of establishing

1375
01:15:29,040 --> 01:15:34,000
Speaker 1: probable cause. Speaking of Judge of Politano's topic for the

1376
01:15:34,120 --> 01:15:36,680
Speaker 1: raid where they seized around seven hundred boxes from the

1377
01:15:37,160 --> 01:15:40,600
Speaker 1: storage warehouse, you may have been reading about that. The

1378
01:15:41,080 --> 01:15:44,560
Speaker 1: investigation stemmed from a referral by Kurt Olsen. Now this

1379
01:15:44,720 --> 01:15:49,800
Speaker 1: is President Trump's election integrities are. He interviewed about a

1380
01:15:49,880 --> 01:15:53,799
Speaker 1: dozen unnamed witnesses about allegations regarding the contest that Georgia

1381
01:15:53,920 --> 01:15:56,840
Speaker 1: race Joe Biden if you recall one by less than

1382
01:15:56,920 --> 01:16:02,000
Speaker 1: twelve thousand votes in the official results. Evans wrote, some

1383
01:16:02,120 --> 01:16:05,000
Speaker 1: of those allegations have been disproven, while some of those

1384
01:16:05,080 --> 01:16:11,040
Speaker 1: allegations have been substantiated, including through admissions by Fulton County

1385
01:16:11,200 --> 01:16:16,160
Speaker 1: not unnamed witnesses, but the actual Fulton County folks. The

1386
01:16:16,200 --> 01:16:19,040
Speaker 1: warrant application is part of FBI criminal investigation to whether

1387
01:16:19,120 --> 01:16:22,360
Speaker 1: any of the improprieties were intentional acts that violated federal

1388
01:16:22,439 --> 01:16:25,599
Speaker 1: criminal laws. It's that intent element to qualify as a crime.

1389
01:16:26,880 --> 01:16:32,439
Speaker 1: Fulton County admitted it lacks scan images pardon me of

1390
01:16:32,479 --> 01:16:37,280
Speaker 1: all ballots counted during the initial count and lacks scanned

1391
01:16:37,320 --> 01:16:43,639
Speaker 1: images from the state's first recount. Officials confirmed that during

1392
01:16:43,720 --> 01:16:50,160
Speaker 1: the recount, some ballots were scanned multiple times, and apparently

1393
01:16:50,200 --> 01:16:53,280
Speaker 1: ballot images obtained through public record requests show that identical

1394
01:16:53,360 --> 01:16:55,839
Speaker 1: markings appear on duplicated images.

1395
01:16:56,120 --> 01:16:56,439
Speaker 11: Hmmm.

1396
01:16:57,800 --> 01:17:00,719
Speaker 1: Now they did what they call a risk limited limiting

1397
01:17:00,920 --> 01:17:03,160
Speaker 1: audit audit during the period of time they were kind

1398
01:17:03,160 --> 01:17:05,559
Speaker 1: of the vote, So this is a risk limiting audit.

1399
01:17:05,720 --> 01:17:08,639
Speaker 1: During that period of time, hand counters reported vote totals

1400
01:17:08,640 --> 01:17:12,879
Speaker 1: for batches that didn't match the actual votes inside the batches.

1401
01:17:13,760 --> 01:17:17,080
Speaker 1: The Affidavid says quote these States Performance Review Board reported

1402
01:17:17,120 --> 01:17:21,200
Speaker 1: to the Secretary of State investigators confirm inaccurate batch tallies

1403
01:17:21,280 --> 01:17:26,280
Speaker 1: from the risk limiting audit. Auditors looking at the risk

1404
01:17:26,439 --> 01:17:31,599
Speaker 1: limiting audit reported counting supposed absentee ballots that had never

1405
01:17:31,760 --> 01:17:35,960
Speaker 1: been creased or folded, which would be a necessity for

1406
01:17:36,040 --> 01:17:37,680
Speaker 1: the ballot to be mailed for the voter, and for

1407
01:17:37,760 --> 01:17:40,760
Speaker 1: the ballot to be turned in. The sealed envelope required

1408
01:17:41,400 --> 01:17:44,320
Speaker 1: requiring the voter's signature. So if you have an unfolded

1409
01:17:44,360 --> 01:17:46,560
Speaker 1: ballot that had never been increased or folded, clearly it

1410
01:17:46,720 --> 01:17:50,800
Speaker 1: was not mailed in. How can you put an unfolded

1411
01:17:50,840 --> 01:17:53,720
Speaker 1: ballot into a regular mailing envelope, which should contain the

1412
01:17:53,840 --> 01:18:01,200
Speaker 1: voter's signature for authentication. In other words, you can't on

1413
01:18:01,320 --> 01:18:07,320
Speaker 1: the deadline day to report recount results. Fulton County initially

1414
01:18:07,479 --> 01:18:09,720
Speaker 1: claimed a total of five hundred eleven, three hundred and

1415
01:18:09,760 --> 01:18:15,040
Speaker 1: forty three ballots, oddly seventeen thousand, four hundred and thirty

1416
01:18:15,040 --> 01:18:17,599
Speaker 1: four fewer than the original count, but by the next

1417
01:18:17,760 --> 01:18:21,680
Speaker 1: day the number was up to five hundred and five

1418
01:18:21,720 --> 01:18:24,360
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty seven thousand and five or nine twenty five,

1419
01:18:24,479 --> 01:18:27,320
Speaker 1: which is thousands of ballots more than Joe Barden Biden's

1420
01:18:27,360 --> 01:18:35,160
Speaker 1: margin to victory, which they say simply appeared overnight. According

1421
01:18:35,160 --> 01:18:37,080
Speaker 1: to Evans, if these deficiencies were the result of an

1422
01:18:37,080 --> 01:18:39,400
Speaker 1: intentional action, it would be a violation of federal law,

1423
01:18:39,439 --> 01:18:41,560
Speaker 1: regardless of whether the failure to retain the records of

1424
01:18:41,600 --> 01:18:44,320
Speaker 1: the deprivation of a fair tabulation of a vote was

1425
01:18:44,640 --> 01:18:47,840
Speaker 1: outcome determinative for any particular election of race. In other words,

1426
01:18:48,080 --> 01:18:50,959
Speaker 1: if you intended to do this, it's a crime, regardless

1427
01:18:50,960 --> 01:18:53,880
Speaker 1: of whether it ultimately changed the outcome of the election. Maureen,

1428
01:18:53,960 --> 01:18:55,960
Speaker 1: welcome to the program channeling You this morning.

1429
01:18:56,000 --> 01:18:59,840
Speaker 11: Good to hear from you, Hi, Brian, Yes, I think so.

1430
01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:02,200
Speaker 11: But a Fulton County, George is just the tip of

1431
01:19:02,240 --> 01:19:05,639
Speaker 11: the iceberg. They're going to go onto Arizona next, probably

1432
01:19:05,800 --> 01:19:10,559
Speaker 11: the same same goal of finding this stuff out. Also,

1433
01:19:10,680 --> 01:19:14,600
Speaker 11: Tulca Gabbert sent a team over to Puerto Rico to

1434
01:19:14,760 --> 01:19:18,360
Speaker 11: investigate their complicity in what may be a connection to

1435
01:19:18,439 --> 01:19:22,519
Speaker 11: Venezuela and the machines and our elections too, So that's

1436
01:19:22,560 --> 01:19:25,280
Speaker 11: all going on at the same time. Also, Maui County

1437
01:19:25,479 --> 01:19:30,280
Speaker 11: and Hawaii they have nineteen thousand ballots that said they

1438
01:19:30,320 --> 01:19:32,680
Speaker 11: were mail in ballots. But in the post office you

1439
01:19:32,720 --> 01:19:34,639
Speaker 11: have us to have a photograph of every single thing

1440
01:19:34,720 --> 01:19:38,880
Speaker 11: that goes through the postal service, and they have no

1441
01:19:39,120 --> 01:19:42,120
Speaker 11: evidence of that ever coming through the post office. Also

1442
01:19:42,240 --> 01:19:43,360
Speaker 11: know they were mail in ballots.

1443
01:19:43,479 --> 01:19:46,160
Speaker 1: I did not know that went on at the post office, Maureene.

1444
01:19:46,200 --> 01:19:48,840
Speaker 1: They actually photographed the mail that comes through.

1445
01:19:49,880 --> 01:19:52,679
Speaker 11: Apparently in Hawaii they do Maui.

1446
01:19:53,840 --> 01:19:55,960
Speaker 1: Oh they do it here too, Joe said, Okay, they

1447
01:19:56,120 --> 01:19:57,720
Speaker 1: learned something new every day on the fifty five Case

1448
01:19:57,880 --> 01:19:58,320
Speaker 1: Morning Show.

1449
01:19:59,200 --> 01:20:01,160
Speaker 11: And it was also not have the folds that you

1450
01:20:01,160 --> 01:20:03,160
Speaker 11: would normally have as something we're put in a mail,

1451
01:20:03,439 --> 01:20:05,600
Speaker 11: So I think it's going to be. It's going to

1452
01:20:05,640 --> 01:20:07,000
Speaker 11: be a lot of places that we're going to be

1453
01:20:07,080 --> 01:20:08,840
Speaker 11: hearing about that are a lot like what's going on

1454
01:20:08,960 --> 01:20:09,439
Speaker 11: in Georgia.

1455
01:20:09,840 --> 01:20:13,680
Speaker 1: Only took it took six years, Maureen, I know.

1456
01:20:13,920 --> 01:20:16,360
Speaker 11: But timing, timing is everything, and we'll find out why

1457
01:20:16,439 --> 01:20:20,479
Speaker 11: the timing was the way it is later anyway. So

1458
01:20:20,720 --> 01:20:23,519
Speaker 11: now I want to talk about the Zoro Okay, the

1459
01:20:23,640 --> 01:20:26,800
Speaker 11: powerball call that you guy had your person called in

1460
01:20:26,880 --> 01:20:31,640
Speaker 11: a little bit about. Okay, it wasn't It wasn't Epstein specifically,

1461
01:20:31,800 --> 01:20:35,000
Speaker 11: but it was tied to a trust called trust. He

1462
01:20:35,080 --> 01:20:38,519
Speaker 11: owns a ranch. He owns a ranch called Zoro Ranch,

1463
01:20:38,920 --> 01:20:41,960
Speaker 11: which is also in Zoro Trust, So that is who

1464
01:20:42,040 --> 01:20:44,760
Speaker 11: accepted this. And it's a ten thousand acre ranch in

1465
01:20:44,800 --> 01:20:47,800
Speaker 11: the southeast of Santa Fe and it's where they think

1466
01:20:47,880 --> 01:20:52,880
Speaker 11: that he was doing genetic testing, transhumanism, cryos cryogenics, and

1467
01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:55,720
Speaker 11: different things like that. And he talked with scientists at

1468
01:20:55,760 --> 01:20:58,200
Speaker 11: Harvard and MIT, and then he met with them and

1469
01:20:58,240 --> 01:21:00,599
Speaker 11: he talked about and through donations, they met with him

1470
01:21:00,600 --> 01:21:02,360
Speaker 11: because he gave a ton of money to them, and

1471
01:21:02,479 --> 01:21:04,639
Speaker 11: he talked to the scientists there about how he wanted

1472
01:21:04,680 --> 01:21:08,280
Speaker 11: to impregnanate and pregnate twenty women at a time. He

1473
01:21:08,360 --> 01:21:11,840
Speaker 11: wanted to see them with his DNA to start what

1474
01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:14,960
Speaker 11: he called a superior human race. So there's a lot

1475
01:21:15,000 --> 01:21:17,599
Speaker 11: of rumors about Zoro Ranch. You might want to look

1476
01:21:17,600 --> 01:21:20,639
Speaker 11: into that rumors, but a lot of it experientially, well

1477
01:21:21,280 --> 01:21:24,640
Speaker 11: he is, you know me, Mari scientists about that.

1478
01:21:24,800 --> 01:21:27,920
Speaker 1: I know, I know, but I read, I read a

1479
01:21:28,000 --> 01:21:30,160
Speaker 1: lot that never makes it onto the fifty five Serrey

1480
01:21:30,200 --> 01:21:34,600
Speaker 1: Morning Charrosey Morning Show content because you know, sometimes it

1481
01:21:34,680 --> 01:21:37,000
Speaker 1: sounds a little hard to believe. So I'm happy to

1482
01:21:37,120 --> 01:21:39,280
Speaker 1: ultimately wait six years to get the truth that that's

1483
01:21:39,320 --> 01:21:41,519
Speaker 1: how long it takes to get the real truth. I'll

1484
01:21:41,560 --> 01:21:43,960
Speaker 1: wait for the truth, but I'd certainly appreciate you, Maureen.

1485
01:21:44,040 --> 01:21:46,400
Speaker 1: You've been right more times than wrong over the years,

1486
01:21:46,439 --> 01:21:48,320
Speaker 1: which is why I always love having you on the show.

1487
01:21:49,040 --> 01:21:51,160
Speaker 1: Love you, my dear. Seven twenty six, don't go away.

1488
01:21:51,240 --> 01:21:53,960
Speaker 1: We'll hear from our power coming up after eighty five

1489
01:21:54,040 --> 01:21:56,799
Speaker 1: Congress from Thomas Massey, followed by Judge Jennita poul Aitana

1490
01:21:56,920 --> 01:21:58,360
Speaker 1: looking forward to that. I hope you are as well,

1491
01:21:58,360 --> 01:22:00,519
Speaker 1: and I've been looking forward all more. Need to talk

1492
01:22:00,560 --> 01:22:03,799
Speaker 1: in with Adam Miller from the Concerned Veterans for America.

1493
01:22:03,880 --> 01:22:06,519
Speaker 1: He's given some praise to Senator John Houston for some

1494
01:22:06,640 --> 01:22:09,640
Speaker 1: work he's doing about improving access to benefits. Welcome to

1495
01:22:09,720 --> 01:22:11,360
Speaker 1: the program, Adam. It's a real pleasure to have you on.

1496
01:22:13,160 --> 01:22:14,840
Speaker 12: Hey Brian, good morning. Thank you so much for having

1497
01:22:14,880 --> 01:22:15,680
Speaker 12: me real quick for.

1498
01:22:15,720 --> 01:22:17,680
Speaker 1: You to dive into the rural Veterans Improved Access to

1499
01:22:17,720 --> 01:22:20,200
Speaker 1: Benefits Act. Can you remind my listeners about what you

1500
01:22:20,320 --> 01:22:22,720
Speaker 1: do at Concern Veterans for America, which my listeners can

1501
01:22:22,760 --> 01:22:25,400
Speaker 1: find online at CV number four a dot org.

1502
01:22:27,080 --> 01:22:30,920
Speaker 12: Sure, so, Concern Veterans for America. We're an organization of veterans,

1503
01:22:31,000 --> 01:22:34,120
Speaker 12: military families, and just patriotic citizens who are inspired and

1504
01:22:34,240 --> 01:22:37,320
Speaker 12: determined to shape a better American future. So we believe

1505
01:22:37,360 --> 01:22:39,800
Speaker 12: that veterans in their communities are a positive force for

1506
01:22:39,920 --> 01:22:43,080
Speaker 12: good and can tackle a lot of the country's most

1507
01:22:43,479 --> 01:22:47,120
Speaker 12: pressing challenges. So we try to amplify the veterans' voices

1508
01:22:47,600 --> 01:22:50,920
Speaker 12: and encourage folks to get involved at the local, state,

1509
01:22:50,960 --> 01:22:51,639
Speaker 12: and federal level.

1510
01:22:51,840 --> 01:22:54,160
Speaker 1: Applaud your efforts along those lines too. Anyone can do

1511
01:22:54,200 --> 01:22:56,080
Speaker 1: here in the morning, should healthy American veteran We are

1512
01:22:56,120 --> 01:22:59,439
Speaker 1: going to do and apparently Senator John Houston, you're praising

1513
01:22:59,520 --> 01:23:02,400
Speaker 1: him on the way I saw that for introducing the

1514
01:23:02,680 --> 01:23:06,599
Speaker 1: Rural Veterans Improved Access to Benefits Act. This is sort

1515
01:23:06,600 --> 01:23:10,080
Speaker 1: of a corollary to what you had a CDA been

1516
01:23:10,120 --> 01:23:13,599
Speaker 1: pushing for the Veterans Access Act. If I understand this correctly,

1517
01:23:13,640 --> 01:23:15,320
Speaker 1: it's sort of a separate piece of legislation.

1518
01:23:17,240 --> 01:23:20,320
Speaker 12: Yeah, it's separate. And you know, the legislation that the

1519
01:23:20,400 --> 01:23:25,040
Speaker 12: Senator introduced in the Senate, it deals with veterans benefits,

1520
01:23:25,280 --> 01:23:28,360
Speaker 12: as the Veterans' Access Act deals with veterans the Veterans

1521
01:23:28,400 --> 01:23:30,920
Speaker 12: Healthcare Administration. But you know, at the end of the day,

1522
01:23:30,960 --> 01:23:34,760
Speaker 12: we believe that veterans deserved timely, reliable access to care

1523
01:23:34,840 --> 01:23:37,000
Speaker 12: and benefits that they've earned, no matter where they live.

1524
01:23:37,200 --> 01:23:39,799
Speaker 12: And that's why we're so thankful for Senator Housted's legislation

1525
01:23:39,920 --> 01:23:43,240
Speaker 12: because it cuts through that bureaucratic red tape, it expands

1526
01:23:43,360 --> 01:23:46,599
Speaker 12: access to qualified providers, and it ensures that our veterans

1527
01:23:46,640 --> 01:23:50,120
Speaker 12: are not left navigating delays or uncertainty. So again, you know,

1528
01:23:50,160 --> 01:23:52,439
Speaker 12: we're just very appreciative of him his commitment to these

1529
01:23:52,479 --> 01:23:54,680
Speaker 12: common sense reforms that at the end of the day,

1530
01:23:54,840 --> 01:23:55,840
Speaker 12: put our veterans first.

1531
01:23:56,200 --> 01:23:59,719
Speaker 1: Okay, you know I think about this this phenomenon quite often.

1532
01:24:00,120 --> 01:24:04,480
Speaker 1: If you live in a highly dense populated city like Cincinnati,

1533
01:24:04,560 --> 01:24:07,959
Speaker 1: for example, you're usually close to a lot of services.

1534
01:24:08,040 --> 01:24:09,639
Speaker 1: You know, there are a few blocks away, they're within

1535
01:24:09,720 --> 01:24:12,400
Speaker 1: a short drive or whatever. The VA's right there, it's

1536
01:24:12,439 --> 01:24:14,920
Speaker 1: close by. But you know what of my friends out

1537
01:24:14,960 --> 01:24:17,000
Speaker 1: in very rural counties, and I always think of the

1538
01:24:17,160 --> 01:24:19,880
Speaker 1: entire state of West Virginia. It's mostly rural and does

1539
01:24:19,960 --> 01:24:22,879
Speaker 1: not have convenient access to a lot of the services

1540
01:24:22,920 --> 01:24:25,960
Speaker 1: that folks need. So how does this Rural Veterans Improve

1541
01:24:26,120 --> 01:24:29,360
Speaker 1: Access Benefits Act help folks like that out in the

1542
01:24:29,479 --> 01:24:31,720
Speaker 1: world get the health care that they need.

1543
01:24:33,920 --> 01:24:37,440
Speaker 12: So this specific bill, it just it allows local providers

1544
01:24:38,040 --> 01:24:42,960
Speaker 12: to provide those those medical examinations that our veterans need

1545
01:24:43,560 --> 01:24:48,679
Speaker 12: to get their benefits. So it is similar to the Veterans'

1546
01:24:48,680 --> 01:24:51,439
Speaker 12: Access Act in the sense that it allows them to

1547
01:24:51,760 --> 01:24:52,880
Speaker 12: get care closer to home.

1548
01:24:54,160 --> 01:24:58,120
Speaker 1: So there's currently absentist legislation, there's an impediment to local

1549
01:24:58,200 --> 01:25:00,679
Speaker 1: providers giving care to the veterans.

1550
01:25:03,120 --> 01:25:07,080
Speaker 12: So when we're talking about benefits, yeah, restriction.

1551
01:25:07,000 --> 01:25:09,800
Speaker 1: How will it work? I guess if it goes through

1552
01:25:09,840 --> 01:25:12,760
Speaker 1: and everything passes, like you want, Adam Miller, how's it

1553
01:25:12,800 --> 01:25:14,920
Speaker 1: going to make care easier? What's it going to change

1554
01:25:15,000 --> 01:25:16,920
Speaker 1: that will give more veterans access to care?

1555
01:25:18,760 --> 01:25:22,479
Speaker 12: So the specific build that the Senator John Houston sponsored

1556
01:25:22,520 --> 01:25:25,960
Speaker 12: in the Senate, it expands the types of qualified medical

1557
01:25:26,000 --> 01:25:29,799
Speaker 12: professions who can conduct these specific exams. So, for instance,

1558
01:25:29,880 --> 01:25:32,680
Speaker 12: there was a veteran from Akron, Ohio that needed an

1559
01:25:32,720 --> 01:25:36,920
Speaker 12: examination and he was sent by the Veterans Benefits Administration

1560
01:25:37,040 --> 01:25:40,639
Speaker 12: to Pittsburgh to get that examination. So this will cut

1561
01:25:40,680 --> 01:25:43,919
Speaker 12: down on drive times, it'll cut down on wait times. Ultimately,

1562
01:25:44,320 --> 01:25:46,960
Speaker 12: it'll it'll make sure that our veterans are getting the

1563
01:25:47,200 --> 01:25:50,439
Speaker 12: benefits that they've earned quicker, faster, and then in a

1564
01:25:50,560 --> 01:25:51,400
Speaker 12: more reliable way.

1565
01:25:52,040 --> 01:25:55,000
Speaker 1: Okay, so there would be just a broader swath of

1566
01:25:55,040 --> 01:25:58,200
Speaker 1: providers to provide the care. Is that a strange You

1567
01:25:58,200 --> 01:25:59,720
Speaker 1: got to go to Pittsburgh for something that you know,

1568
01:25:59,800 --> 01:26:04,160
Speaker 1: you think you can get locally. So are the qualifications?

1569
01:26:04,200 --> 01:26:06,240
Speaker 1: Are the restrictions that are currently in place? Are they

1570
01:26:06,320 --> 01:26:08,559
Speaker 1: designed in some way help the veteran? Like was there

1571
01:26:08,640 --> 01:26:12,040
Speaker 1: concern that only certain people are really truly qualified? I

1572
01:26:12,120 --> 01:26:15,040
Speaker 1: guess this seems like it's greasing the skids in a

1573
01:26:15,080 --> 01:26:18,280
Speaker 1: positive way. But I'm wondering, well, could it be maybe

1574
01:26:18,400 --> 01:26:19,680
Speaker 1: not at them.

1575
01:26:21,920 --> 01:26:24,720
Speaker 12: No, for this specific legislation, it really came down just

1576
01:26:24,760 --> 01:26:27,719
Speaker 12: to kind of the bureaucratic red tape that the Massive

1577
01:26:27,800 --> 01:26:31,479
Speaker 12: Veterans Administration has and then some of the policies that

1578
01:26:31,560 --> 01:26:34,719
Speaker 12: they implement internally. And that's where organizations like Concerned Veterans

1579
01:26:34,760 --> 01:26:38,200
Speaker 12: for America, you know, we advocate for some of these

1580
01:26:38,320 --> 01:26:41,479
Speaker 12: common sense policy reforms and then we look to Congress

1581
01:26:41,960 --> 01:26:44,760
Speaker 12: to enact them from from a watchdog perspective and just

1582
01:26:44,800 --> 01:26:47,720
Speaker 12: making sure that we're streamlining the process. And again it

1583
01:26:47,800 --> 01:26:49,840
Speaker 12: comes it really comes down to making sure that our

1584
01:26:49,920 --> 01:26:53,720
Speaker 12: veterans have had more choices and greater access to these

1585
01:26:53,760 --> 01:26:57,120
Speaker 12: examinations and the medical professionals that can provide them.

1586
01:26:57,240 --> 01:27:00,280
Speaker 1: All Right, well, it sounds like a reasonable idea. Would

1587
01:27:00,280 --> 01:27:02,000
Speaker 1: you like for my listener's got a lot of veterans

1588
01:27:02,000 --> 01:27:04,519
Speaker 1: and veteran families in the listening audience, some call to action,

1589
01:27:04,680 --> 01:27:07,040
Speaker 1: you we'd like them to pursue Adam Miller from Concerned

1590
01:27:07,120 --> 01:27:07,880
Speaker 1: Veterans from America.

1591
01:27:10,000 --> 01:27:13,640
Speaker 12: Yeah, so this legislation is important, but CBA has long

1592
01:27:14,080 --> 01:27:17,320
Speaker 12: champion for expanding veterans healthcare choice, and that includes strong

1593
01:27:17,360 --> 01:27:19,080
Speaker 12: support for the Veterans' Access Act.

1594
01:27:19,160 --> 01:27:20,439
Speaker 5: Like you had mentioned, it's a.

1595
01:27:20,479 --> 01:27:24,400
Speaker 12: Top priority for CBA. To give a little bit of background,

1596
01:27:24,439 --> 01:27:28,320
Speaker 12: the VA Mission Act gave millions of veterans healthcare choices

1597
01:27:28,400 --> 01:27:32,000
Speaker 12: through its community care program, but unfortunately, through VA wait

1598
01:27:32,080 --> 01:27:37,000
Speaker 12: time manipulation, faulty scheduling guidance, and improper appointment cancelations, it

1599
01:27:37,120 --> 01:27:40,439
Speaker 12: kept way too many veterans from accessing these important choices.

1600
01:27:40,880 --> 01:27:44,759
Speaker 12: So the Veterans' Access Act would codify those community care standards,

1601
01:27:44,840 --> 01:27:48,800
Speaker 12: make them law. It's twenty twenty six. It'll create self

1602
01:27:48,840 --> 01:27:53,560
Speaker 12: scheduling portals so veterans can can schedule their appointments. They

1603
01:27:53,600 --> 01:27:55,720
Speaker 12: can connect with their care providers right there on an

1604
01:27:55,760 --> 01:27:59,280
Speaker 12: app and then they can get appointment updates, reminders, they

1605
01:27:59,320 --> 01:28:03,880
Speaker 12: can track refer roles and their appeal decisions if their

1606
01:28:03,960 --> 01:28:07,040
Speaker 12: community care is not accepted. Another big positive aspect of

1607
01:28:07,120 --> 01:28:10,600
Speaker 12: the Veterans Access Act is full choice pilot programs for

1608
01:28:10,720 --> 01:28:14,879
Speaker 12: mental health and substance abuse. So this will allow veterans

1609
01:28:15,400 --> 01:28:18,840
Speaker 12: three year pilot program offering them access to outpatient mental

1610
01:28:18,880 --> 01:28:22,719
Speaker 12: health care substance use treatment through community care without prior

1611
01:28:23,000 --> 01:28:25,400
Speaker 12: VA approval. So these are just some of the some

1612
01:28:25,520 --> 01:28:27,880
Speaker 12: of the key aspects of the Veterans Access Act that

1613
01:28:28,160 --> 01:28:31,000
Speaker 12: we're advocating for and we're promoting, and we're just so

1614
01:28:31,080 --> 01:28:34,000
Speaker 12: excited that there's a lot of co sponsors here in

1615
01:28:34,240 --> 01:28:35,840
Speaker 12: the great state of Ohio and we're just going to

1616
01:28:35,880 --> 01:28:36,960
Speaker 12: try to continue to expand it.

1617
01:28:37,120 --> 01:28:39,759
Speaker 1: All right, wonderful. I guess I've been led to believe

1618
01:28:39,880 --> 01:28:42,080
Speaker 1: talking to the my friends at the CINCINNIVA that a

1619
01:28:42,120 --> 01:28:44,400
Speaker 1: lot of the things you just mentioned are already provided here.

1620
01:28:44,720 --> 01:28:48,479
Speaker 1: Do different VA hospitals have different levels of service, like,

1621
01:28:48,520 --> 01:28:50,840
Speaker 1: for example, I know they offer mental health services even

1622
01:28:50,880 --> 01:28:53,840
Speaker 1: telehealth through the Sincinntiva for my veteran friends. So it

1623
01:28:53,920 --> 01:28:55,560
Speaker 1: sounds me like they've already taken a step in that

1624
01:28:55,640 --> 01:28:58,000
Speaker 1: direction at least here locally. Or do I have that?

1625
01:28:58,120 --> 01:29:01,760
Speaker 1: Am I misunderstanding that, Adam, that.

1626
01:29:01,840 --> 01:29:05,320
Speaker 12: We've seen a lot of positive changes under the new

1627
01:29:05,320 --> 01:29:08,400
Speaker 12: administration with Secretary Collins at the VA, and you know,

1628
01:29:08,439 --> 01:29:10,360
Speaker 12: I'll be honest, there's there's a lot of frustration out

1629
01:29:10,360 --> 01:29:14,000
Speaker 12: there because veterans upheld their oath. So when we when

1630
01:29:14,040 --> 01:29:15,880
Speaker 12: we were set overseas, you know, we carried the weight

1631
01:29:16,160 --> 01:29:18,800
Speaker 12: of those decisions that are made by Washington when we

1632
01:29:19,040 --> 01:29:21,880
Speaker 12: return home. So you know, our ultimate goal is to

1633
01:29:22,240 --> 01:29:24,439
Speaker 12: make sure that that our veterans are receiving the care

1634
01:29:24,479 --> 01:29:27,320
Speaker 12: and treatment that they see that best best fits their needs.

1635
01:29:27,960 --> 01:29:32,160
Speaker 12: And unfortunately, in a lot of veterans hospitals sometimes that

1636
01:29:32,240 --> 01:29:35,479
Speaker 12: that care is not provided adequately. And and that's fine,

1637
01:29:35,479 --> 01:29:37,240
Speaker 12: and there's a lot of veterans that that enjoy their

1638
01:29:37,600 --> 01:29:39,040
Speaker 12: VA benefits, but they.

1639
01:29:39,000 --> 01:29:42,479
Speaker 1: Should have that choice, definitely, So Veterans Access Act and

1640
01:29:42,560 --> 01:29:45,360
Speaker 1: of course the Rural Veterans Improved Access to Benefits Act,

1641
01:29:45,400 --> 01:29:48,200
Speaker 1: which John Houston is behind. I guess you want my

1642
01:29:48,280 --> 01:29:50,479
Speaker 1: listeners to go to CV number four a dot org

1643
01:29:50,600 --> 01:29:53,320

1644
01:29:53,360 --> 01:29:55,760
Speaker 1: they can go in terms of like reaching out and

1645
01:29:55,920 --> 01:29:57,960

1646

Speaker 1: for the American veterans.

1661
01:30:43,800 --> 01:30:44,360

Speaker 1: station seven forty eight if if you have KRCD talkstation,

1665
01:30:52,800 --> 01:30:55,960
Speaker 1: Happy Wednesday. Congressman Thomas Massey over the top of Dark News,

1666
01:30:56,000 --> 01:30:57,320
Speaker 1: the shame we don't have anything to talk about with

1667
01:30:57,360 --> 01:31:01,120
Speaker 1: Congressman Massy already talk about another continuing about Department of

1668
01:31:01,160 --> 01:31:06,080
Speaker 1: Homeland Security funding and Democrats are saying no, they used

1669
01:31:06,120 --> 01:31:08,360
Speaker 1: up all their time and they really haven't done any negotiations.

1670
01:31:08,400 --> 01:31:10,560
Speaker 1: It's still holding out for their ten demands and so

1671
01:31:10,680 --> 01:31:14,800
Speaker 1: far as ICE procedures are concerned, and the Republicans are

1672
01:31:14,800 --> 01:31:17,839
Speaker 1: still saying, listen, how about no, you're going to completely

1673
01:31:17,840 --> 01:31:20,599
Speaker 1: eviscerate ICE's ability to enforce a federal law. And that's

1674
01:31:20,640 --> 01:31:23,439
Speaker 1: exactly what they're endeavoring to do. So we'll see what

1675
01:31:23,520 --> 01:31:26,080
Speaker 1: congressrom mess he may say on that one. But first

1676
01:31:27,320 --> 01:31:32,439
Speaker 1: I guess no, nothing to see here. It was all

1677
01:31:32,479 --> 01:31:35,080
Speaker 1: the rage to screaming yell about us blowing up narco

1678
01:31:35,240 --> 01:31:39,360
Speaker 1: terrorist boats. We did it again. United States Southern Command

1679
01:31:39,400 --> 01:31:43,360
Speaker 1: announced earlier this week another lethal kinetics strike on drug

1680
01:31:43,479 --> 01:31:47,280
Speaker 1: vacraft trafficking vessels. Two narco terrorists killed. One of them

1681
01:31:47,320 --> 01:31:49,439
Speaker 1: actually survived. They sent the coast guard out to pick

1682
01:31:49,520 --> 01:31:53,559
Speaker 1: him up. So in total, it looks like thirty eight

1683
01:31:53,680 --> 01:31:57,479
Speaker 1: total strikes against drug trafficking vehicles in the Caribbean taking

1684
01:31:57,520 --> 01:31:59,680
Speaker 1: place since the start of the operation last September, one

1685
01:31:59,720 --> 01:32:03,640
Speaker 1: hundred twenty one drug traffickers killed. I'm assuming you take

1686
01:32:03,680 --> 01:32:05,639
Speaker 1: everybody's word on it, but they are in fact drug traffickers,

1687
01:32:05,760 --> 01:32:07,240
Speaker 1: So maybe the guy they picked up out of the

1688
01:32:07,320 --> 01:32:09,880
Speaker 1: water can verify that one way or another. And the

1689
01:32:09,960 --> 01:32:12,280
Speaker 1: other thing. I thought this was rather interesting, and I

1690
01:32:12,360 --> 01:32:15,680
Speaker 1: will just defer to James Hickman and his analysis over

1691
01:32:15,680 --> 01:32:18,040
Speaker 1: at schiftsovereign dot Com. I thought this was funny, though

1692
01:32:18,280 --> 01:32:20,160
Speaker 1: we're in the middle of this MAHA movement, Robert F.

1693
01:32:20,200 --> 01:32:23,879
Speaker 1: Kennedy Junior and his having some really great success curbing

1694
01:32:24,080 --> 01:32:29,120
Speaker 1: SNAP benefits. Apparently he got eighteen states to band Snap

1695
01:32:29,160 --> 01:32:34,519
Speaker 1: purchases of terrible food, soda, candy, processed snacks, and on

1696
01:32:34,600 --> 01:32:39,559
Speaker 1: the wake of that, PepsiCo announced price cuts of fifteen

1697
01:32:39,640 --> 01:32:42,840
Speaker 1: percent up to fifteen percent on Doritos, Lays, Tostitos, and

1698
01:32:42,880 --> 01:32:46,840
Speaker 1: other free too lay products. Now, the CEO said he

1699
01:32:47,000 --> 01:32:51,720
Speaker 1: cited low income consumers switching to store brands because well

1700
01:32:51,840 --> 01:32:54,000
Speaker 1: affordability and if you have seen the price of chips,

1701
01:32:54,040 --> 01:32:56,280
Speaker 1: they have gone up through the roof, and we just

1702
01:32:56,400 --> 01:32:58,639
Speaker 1: chose some time ago never to buy him anymore anyway.

1703
01:32:58,840 --> 01:33:03,960
Speaker 1: SNAP the Supplement of Nutrition Assistance Program one hundred billion

1704
01:33:03,960 --> 01:33:07,640
Speaker 1: a year program, forty two million Americans being served by it.

1705
01:33:08,479 --> 01:33:12,320
Speaker 1: USDA's own data says about twenty cents of every SNAP

1706
01:33:12,439 --> 01:33:16,519
Speaker 1: dollar goes to sweetened beverages, candy, salty snacks, and sugar

1707
01:33:18,080 --> 01:33:21,439
Speaker 1: soft drinks, the largest category of SNAP purchases with zero

1708
01:33:21,560 --> 01:33:23,760
Speaker 1: nutritional value and terrible for you because of all the

1709
01:33:23,800 --> 01:33:27,360
Speaker 1: sugar they have in them. So until last week, Freedo

1710
01:33:27,439 --> 01:33:31,280
Speaker 1: lay's Pepsi division three at freeo lay seven point two

1711
01:33:31,400 --> 01:33:37,639
Speaker 1: percent of all shopping trips paid for with Snap. Free

1712
01:33:37,720 --> 01:33:42,680
Speaker 1: Do lay seven point two percent. So apparently, at least

1713
01:33:42,680 --> 01:33:44,880
Speaker 1: according to the analysis by James Hickman, when the government

1714
01:33:44,880 --> 01:33:49,040
Speaker 1: stopped subsidizing demand for the products Pepsi well competed, they

1715
01:33:49,160 --> 01:33:51,120
Speaker 1: lowered the price make it a little more palatable for

1716
01:33:51,200 --> 01:33:53,240
Speaker 1: someone who can't get it paid for on Snap dollars

1717
01:33:53,280 --> 01:33:56,880
Speaker 1: to go ahead and buy the chips anyway. So this

1718
01:33:56,960 --> 01:33:58,400
Speaker 1: is what the free market does. Said, well, this is

1719
01:33:58,479 --> 01:34:02,320
Speaker 1: just one company, one product line, said, you know, one

1720
01:34:02,439 --> 01:34:04,760
Speaker 1: government program said, zoom out. You can see just how

1721
01:34:04,840 --> 01:34:07,400
Speaker 1: much price inflation our daily lives is because of direct

1722
01:34:07,479 --> 01:34:12,519
Speaker 1: government spending. When a guaranteed buyer shows up with a

1723
01:34:12,600 --> 01:34:16,160
Speaker 1: bottomless wallid, prices go up. He cited the Higher Education

1724
01:34:16,280 --> 01:34:19,639
Speaker 1: Act from nineteen sixty five. Tuition has risen roughly three

1725
01:34:19,680 --> 01:34:24,520
Speaker 1: times faster than inflation. A year at a private university

1726
01:34:26,479 --> 01:34:29,160
Speaker 1: that costs twenty eight hundred dollars in nineteen sixty three

1727
01:34:29,240 --> 01:34:33,840
Speaker 1: is now eighty five thousand dollars. New York Federal Reserve

1728
01:34:33,880 --> 01:34:36,880
Speaker 1: studied this directly found that for every dollar increase in

1729
01:34:37,080 --> 01:34:40,519
Speaker 1: subsidized student loans, tuition rose by up to sixty cents.

1730
01:34:41,280 --> 01:34:44,320
Speaker 1: So he points out that when government guarantees the tuition money,

1731
01:34:44,439 --> 01:34:49,639
Speaker 1: universities raise prices because they can. Healthcare's described as worse

1732
01:34:49,800 --> 01:34:54,280
Speaker 1: Medicare Medicaid created in nineteen sixty five, back when governments

1733
01:34:54,280 --> 01:34:57,080
Speaker 1: share of healthcare spending was thirty one percent. Today government

1734
01:34:57,120 --> 01:35:00,280
Speaker 1: shared now sixty four percent. Medicaid spending a loan grown

1735
01:35:00,320 --> 01:35:04,839
Speaker 1: from thirteen billion and seventy five to nine hundred billion

1736
01:35:04,960 --> 01:35:08,720
Speaker 1: dollars today, At the same time, healthcare prices have gone

1737
01:35:08,760 --> 01:35:11,559
Speaker 1: through the roof over the same period. US now spends

1738
01:35:11,600 --> 01:35:14,080
Speaker 1: nearly five trillion a year on healthcare, far more per

1739
01:35:14,200 --> 01:35:19,000
Speaker 1: capita than any other developed country. Federal spending has risen

1740
01:35:19,040 --> 01:35:21,840
Speaker 1: about eighteen percent of GDP in nineteen nineties to twenty

1741
01:35:21,920 --> 01:35:25,120
Speaker 1: four percent today, meaning almost This is the scary thing.

1742
01:35:25,800 --> 01:35:31,120
Speaker 1: Almost a quarter of the entire American economy is government money.

1743
01:35:37,120 --> 01:35:40,720
Speaker 1: And I've mentioned this before, I've couched it in terms

1744
01:35:40,760 --> 01:35:43,800
Speaker 1: of mister Smith goes to Washington. You got all these

1745
01:35:43,880 --> 01:35:46,559
Speaker 1: wide eyed optimists that get elected. I'm gonna reform, I'm

1746
01:35:46,560 --> 01:35:48,519
Speaker 1: gonna reform, I'm gonna go to Washington, and I'm gonna

1747
01:35:48,560 --> 01:35:50,479
Speaker 1: form I'm gonna crack down a fraud, waste and abuse.

1748
01:35:50,520 --> 01:35:51,560
Speaker 1: And then you go up there and I have this

1749
01:35:51,680 --> 01:35:55,600
Speaker 1: image they take in the back of a room and

1750
01:35:55,720 --> 01:35:58,439
Speaker 1: they close the door and then they reveal the truth

1751
01:35:58,479 --> 01:36:04,200
Speaker 1: to you and they laugh. Haha, you're so naive. We

1752
01:36:04,320 --> 01:36:09,040
Speaker 1: are creating fake work here in government. If we didn't

1753
01:36:09,200 --> 01:36:12,679
Speaker 1: mandate and edict and regulate the living hell out of everybody,

1754
01:36:12,720 --> 01:36:16,759
Speaker 1: we wouldn't have an entire workforce dedicated to yes, complying

1755
01:36:16,800 --> 01:36:19,760
Speaker 1: with the regulations, the edicts and mandates from federal government. Hell,

1756
01:36:19,840 --> 01:36:23,640
Speaker 1: we created entire industries based upon rules and regulations. The

1757
01:36:23,760 --> 01:36:27,160
Speaker 1: Green Agenda, for example, it didn't exist one minute we

1758
01:36:27,200 --> 01:36:29,519
Speaker 1: convinced everybody that they were killing the planet by breathing.

1759
01:36:29,840 --> 01:36:33,400
Speaker 1: The next minute, we've got cottage industries created whole cloth

1760
01:36:33,439 --> 01:36:36,759
Speaker 1: out of regulations brought to you by the federal government,

1761
01:36:36,800 --> 01:36:39,240
Speaker 1: regulations that ultimately, in the final analysis, are pointless. I'm

1762
01:36:39,240 --> 01:36:44,559
Speaker 1: not going to say the globe entire industries have been

1763
01:36:44,560 --> 01:36:47,480
Speaker 1: built around NGOs. We learned this from Minnesota.

1764
01:36:47,680 --> 01:36:48,000
Speaker 5: Hmmm.

1765
01:36:51,080 --> 01:36:53,320
Speaker 1: Fund an NGO. You have funded all of the people

1766
01:36:53,360 --> 01:36:55,519
Speaker 1: who work for the NGO, and then money goes out

1767
01:36:55,520 --> 01:36:58,960
Speaker 1: through the NGO into the world, and yes that money

1768
01:36:59,360 --> 01:37:03,719
Speaker 1: is ultimately spent local communities built on welfare money. Again,

1769
01:37:03,800 --> 01:37:08,000
Speaker 1: going back to Minnesota, it's the sad reality of this,

1770
01:37:08,240 --> 01:37:12,799
Speaker 1: but this manipulation where you guarantee a purchaser because federal

1771
01:37:12,840 --> 01:37:15,479
Speaker 1: dollars are flowing to your work, your taxpayer dollars going

1772
01:37:15,520 --> 01:37:17,639
Speaker 1: to an individual who we didn't otherwise have the money.

1773
01:37:17,880 --> 01:37:20,680
Speaker 1: They've got the money. Yes, someone will be there to

1774
01:37:21,080 --> 01:37:23,680
Speaker 1: take the money from them, with zero incentive to keep

1775
01:37:23,680 --> 01:37:28,920
Speaker 1: the prices down none whatsoever. But in the broad analysis,

1776
01:37:28,960 --> 01:37:32,400
Speaker 1: I'm glad that they're cutting back on well us paying

1777
01:37:32,520 --> 01:37:36,360
Speaker 1: for garbage that has zero nutritional value, and maybe we

1778
01:37:36,479 --> 01:37:38,200
Speaker 1: can turn the bent on a health crisis we've got

1779
01:37:38,240 --> 01:37:40,160
Speaker 1: here going on in America. Seven to fifty five right now,

1780

1782
01:37:45,520 --> 01:37:49,520
Speaker 1: I sure hope you can stick around today's tough headlines

1783
01:37:49,680 --> 01:37:54,760
Speaker 1: gutting eight oh five. Here a fifty five kr CD

1784
01:37:54,880 --> 01:37:57,759

Speaker 1: Wednesday and always extra spence, so'll happy smile my face

1786
01:38:01,520 --> 01:38:03,799
Speaker 1: to welcome back to the phitybout Kerse Morning Show. Congressman

1787
01:38:03,840 --> 01:38:06,880
Speaker 1: Thomas Massey, Congress and Massy. Great having you back on

1788
01:38:06,960 --> 01:38:08,520
Speaker 1: the show, my friend, welcome.

1789
01:38:09,160 --> 01:38:10,280
Speaker 5: Oh, good to be on.

1790
01:38:10,680 --> 01:38:12,040
Speaker 1: It's a shame we don't anything talk about.

1791
01:38:13,840 --> 01:38:16,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, and it's uh, I'm glad I'm talking to you

1792
01:38:16,640 --> 01:38:18,400
Speaker 5: because I don't have a busy day. It's not like

1793
01:38:18,479 --> 01:38:21,400
Speaker 5: we have Pam Bondi in the Judiciary Committee all day today.

1794
01:38:21,600 --> 01:38:23,360
Speaker 1: Oh that is true. Maybe we'll get to that, but

1795
01:38:23,479 --> 01:38:26,840
Speaker 1: let's first talk about widely circulated on social media. Your

1796
01:38:26,880 --> 01:38:29,200
Speaker 1: situation went down to the Oldham kind of Republican Party

1797
01:38:29,240 --> 01:38:31,559
Speaker 1: Lincoln Day dinner where you had your microphone taken away.

1798
01:38:32,080 --> 01:38:34,479
Speaker 1: Congresson Massei, my understanding is you're merely trying to defend

1799
01:38:34,479 --> 01:38:37,639
Speaker 1: your wife against an outright fake attack by Donald Trump.

1800
01:38:37,760 --> 01:38:39,120
Speaker 1: What is this all about, sir?

1801
01:38:40,680 --> 01:38:43,920
Speaker 5: Well, when they snatched my mic I'm calling it snatchgate,

1802
01:38:45,640 --> 01:38:49,440
Speaker 5: and we were actually raised sixty thousand dollars off of Snatchgate.

1803
01:38:49,680 --> 01:38:52,840
Speaker 5: People were so aghast that they would grab my microphone

1804
01:38:52,880 --> 01:38:57,400
Speaker 5: off the podium while I was speaking. You know, there's

1805
01:38:57,479 --> 01:38:59,920
Speaker 5: the story and then there's the backstory. The story is

1806
01:39:00,200 --> 01:39:03,000
Speaker 5: I ran a little bit over time. It's true. But

1807
01:39:03,680 --> 01:39:06,320
Speaker 5: you know, I'm the congressman for the district, and I

1808
01:39:06,360 --> 01:39:09,080
Speaker 5: thought they wanted a little bit of legislative update. They

1809
01:39:09,160 --> 01:39:11,519
Speaker 5: gave me five minutes. I took eight, and they said

1810
01:39:11,560 --> 01:39:15,519
Speaker 5: that's it. Dab the mic and I was defending my wife.

1811
01:39:15,840 --> 01:39:19,160
Speaker 5: Donald Trump's attacked her twice on social media. I think

1812
01:39:19,200 --> 01:39:23,880
Speaker 5: it's beyond the pale. But you know, normally I don't

1813
01:39:23,920 --> 01:39:30,960
Speaker 5: respond to something sort of inappropriate that the president does.

1814
01:39:31,120 --> 01:39:37,439
Speaker 5: The thing is, my opponent in my election reposted Donald

1815
01:39:37,479 --> 01:39:41,040
Speaker 5: Trump's post. So now he's bringing this back to Kentucky,

1816
01:39:41,600 --> 01:39:44,960
Speaker 5: and the question for him is does he support people

1817
01:39:45,040 --> 01:39:51,400
Speaker 5: attacking spouses and elections In any case, I think the

1818
01:39:51,520 --> 01:39:55,360
Speaker 5: backstory here is that we have liberty candidates in the

1819
01:39:55,439 --> 01:40:00,960
Speaker 5: state legislature that I helped get elected, and they've kept

1820
01:40:01,000 --> 01:40:04,360
Speaker 5: their word. The Speaker of the House in Kentucky was

1821
01:40:04,360 --> 01:40:06,800
Speaker 5: a little bit upset that he lost four chairmen of

1822
01:40:06,920 --> 01:40:12,439
Speaker 5: committees in Kentucky's fourth district alone in primaries. Republicans went

1823
01:40:12,560 --> 01:40:16,880
Speaker 5: down to liberty Republicans, and so I think that animosity

1824
01:40:17,479 --> 01:40:21,000
Speaker 5: is what spurred him to grab my microphone. Because the

1825
01:40:21,280 --> 01:40:23,200
Speaker 5: MC was in fact to Speaker of the House of

1826
01:40:23,320 --> 01:40:25,120
Speaker 5: Kentucky State Legislature.

1827
01:40:26,160 --> 01:40:31,200
Speaker 1: Well, okay, I understand time limits, but I think your

1828
01:40:31,240 --> 01:40:33,400
Speaker 1: point is well taken. You're the elected official, and you

1829
01:40:33,479 --> 01:40:35,080
Speaker 1: did have things to say about what's going on in

1830
01:40:35,120 --> 01:40:36,920
Speaker 1: the world, and you are entitled to defend your wife.

1831
01:40:36,960 --> 01:40:38,880
Speaker 1: And honestly, I don't know how the bar has been

1832
01:40:38,960 --> 01:40:41,160
Speaker 1: lowered so much President of the United States of America

1833
01:40:41,200 --> 01:40:44,120
Speaker 1: going after your wife. Your wife's not running for office, sir.

1834
01:40:44,360 --> 01:40:47,720
Speaker 1: And he didn't describe her in any way, shape or

1835
01:40:47,760 --> 01:40:48,719
Speaker 1: form that was accurate.

1836
01:40:50,280 --> 01:40:53,959
Speaker 5: No, he called her a flaming lefty liberal, which is hilarious.

1837
01:40:55,560 --> 01:40:59,240
Speaker 5: When Donald Trump was given to Hillary Clinton and when

1838
01:40:59,320 --> 01:41:03,040
Speaker 5: my opponent giving to Lindsay Graham, my wife was working

1839
01:41:03,160 --> 01:41:07,760
Speaker 5: for Ron Paul rand Paul campaign for Liberty National Right

1840
01:41:07,840 --> 01:41:11,320
Speaker 5: to Work. She's in the right wing conspiracy. She's the

1841
01:41:11,400 --> 01:41:13,559
Speaker 5: furthest thing you can get from a lefty liberal.

1842
01:41:13,960 --> 01:41:16,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's my understanding as well. Pivving over to the

1843
01:41:16,439 --> 01:41:18,160
Speaker 1: comment you made earlier on about what's going on today

1844
01:41:18,200 --> 01:41:20,479
Speaker 1: with Pam Bonnie, can you enlighten my listeners about what

1845
01:41:20,600 --> 01:41:21,280
Speaker 1: that is all about?

1846
01:41:21,320 --> 01:41:27,400
Speaker 5: Congressome MESSI, Well, this is very important hearing today. Normally,

1847
01:41:27,520 --> 01:41:30,600
Speaker 5: the Attorney General comes once a year to the Judiciary

1848
01:41:30,640 --> 01:41:33,720
Speaker 5: Committee that I serve on and regardless of whether they

1849
01:41:33,760 --> 01:41:36,280
Speaker 5: want to or not. But it's been well over a

1850
01:41:36,360 --> 01:41:40,639
Speaker 5: year and we haven't seen Pam Bondy. Now that's partially

1851
01:41:40,760 --> 01:41:43,120
Speaker 5: due to a shutdown that happened last fall. She was

1852
01:41:43,120 --> 01:41:44,880
Speaker 5: scheduled to come in and speak to us last fall.

1853
01:41:45,640 --> 01:41:49,160
Speaker 5: But today I expect there's going to be some fireworks

1854
01:41:49,880 --> 01:41:53,240
Speaker 5: because this is going to be in the context of

1855
01:41:53,360 --> 01:41:58,479
Speaker 5: a lot of things going on. For instance, I know

1856
01:41:59,320 --> 01:42:04,519
Speaker 5: immigration issues which fall partly under the Attorney General, and

1857
01:42:04,640 --> 01:42:10,000
Speaker 5: then also a little bill called the Epstein Files Transparency

1858
01:42:10,080 --> 01:42:14,000
Speaker 5: Act that I got past that has caused the release

1859
01:42:14,080 --> 01:42:18,400
Speaker 5: of millions of files, but also inappropriate reactions which I

1860
01:42:18,720 --> 01:42:23,800
Speaker 5: discovered on earthed and got some of them corrected this

1861
01:42:23,960 --> 01:42:27,360
Speaker 5: week by the Deputy Attorney General. We can talk about

1862
01:42:27,400 --> 01:42:30,320
Speaker 5: that too. Yeah, So I'll have some questions for the

1863
01:42:30,360 --> 01:42:33,519
Speaker 5: Attorney General. Each of us gets five minutes to question her,

1864
01:42:34,000 --> 01:42:36,080
Speaker 5: and if I have any voice left, which you can

1865
01:42:36,160 --> 01:42:38,240
Speaker 5: tell is yeah, I'm about to lose it this week.

1866
01:42:39,520 --> 01:42:42,400
Speaker 5: If I have any voice left, I'll be asking some

1867
01:42:42,600 --> 01:42:44,000
Speaker 5: very pointed questions.

1868
01:42:44,000 --> 01:42:48,759
Speaker 1: Well and legitimately, so those reactions were limited in scope.

1869
01:42:49,000 --> 01:42:52,480
Speaker 1: My understanding was the only reactions were to prevent victims

1870
01:42:53,000 --> 01:42:56,120
Speaker 1: from being having their names revealed. But it shouldn't redact

1871
01:42:56,240 --> 01:42:58,320
Speaker 1: like you know, members of government or whoever else is

1872
01:42:58,360 --> 01:43:02,759
Speaker 1: in the documents, or am I misremembering what I've read about.

1873
01:43:02,560 --> 01:43:07,439
Speaker 5: That, No, you're correct. And so they released approximately three

1874
01:43:07,479 --> 01:43:10,719
Speaker 5: million documents. They took a lot of them back down

1875
01:43:10,800 --> 01:43:13,120
Speaker 5: and have them put them back up, and then they

1876
01:43:13,479 --> 01:43:16,759
Speaker 5: allowed US members of Congress to go to the DOJ

1877
01:43:17,000 --> 01:43:21,080
Speaker 5: and look at unredacted documents literally sitting there on a computer.

1878
01:43:21,640 --> 01:43:26,360
Speaker 5: You can click a button and the redactions disappear. What

1879
01:43:26,520 --> 01:43:31,000
Speaker 5: I discovered is that they had reacted an FBI file

1880
01:43:31,320 --> 01:43:35,280
Speaker 5: that lists co conspirators. They're labeled as co conspirators in

1881
01:43:35,400 --> 01:43:39,560
Speaker 5: twenty nineteen by the FBI in a child sex trafficking

1882
01:43:39,680 --> 01:43:43,920
Speaker 5: case against Jeffrey Epstein. And you know, some of them

1883
01:43:43,960 --> 01:43:47,040
Speaker 5: are women, and you might say, okay, well, there may

1884
01:43:47,120 --> 01:43:50,559
Speaker 5: be a fuzzy line between victim and co conspirator if

1885
01:43:50,600 --> 01:43:53,240
Speaker 5: it's a woman. But one of them was a billionaire

1886
01:43:53,520 --> 01:43:58,800
Speaker 5: CEO that I recognized from the news. And I went

1887
01:43:59,040 --> 01:44:02,000
Speaker 5: out of this area where you can view these files,

1888
01:44:02,040 --> 01:44:04,479
Speaker 5: and I said, they need to release this name. They're

1889
01:44:04,560 --> 01:44:08,840
Speaker 5: not allowed to redact co conspirators, and within a few

1890
01:44:08,880 --> 01:44:13,320
Speaker 5: hours the DOJ complied and we found out it's less Wexner,

1891
01:44:14,000 --> 01:44:20,600
Speaker 5: who was the former CEO of Victoria's Secret and he

1892
01:44:20,720 --> 01:44:23,880
Speaker 5: had a lot of business dealings with Jeffrey Epstein. And

1893
01:44:24,000 --> 01:44:27,760
Speaker 5: so one of the questions I have is what was

1894
01:44:27,840 --> 01:44:32,760
Speaker 5: the decision process for not bringing charges against less Wexner

1895
01:44:33,160 --> 01:44:35,479
Speaker 5: if he was listed as a co conspirator by the

1896
01:44:35,640 --> 01:44:41,200
Speaker 5: FBI in twenty nineteen when Jeffrey Epstein died or disappeared,

1897
01:44:42,000 --> 01:44:45,840
Speaker 5: whatever you think happened to Jeffrey Epstein. I did a

1898
01:44:45,920 --> 01:44:49,160
Speaker 5: poll online. Only three percent of the over one hundred

1899
01:44:49,200 --> 01:44:53,040
Speaker 5: thousand people who responded thinks that Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide.

1900
01:44:53,880 --> 01:44:57,880
Speaker 5: But that's a different different it is. The main thing

1901
01:44:57,960 --> 01:45:02,000
Speaker 5: here is we had Cash tell in front of our committee,

1902
01:45:02,040 --> 01:45:06,120
Speaker 5: Judiciary Committee, and he testified in the Senate to Senator

1903
01:45:06,200 --> 01:45:10,080
Speaker 5: Kennedy that there was no evidence that Jeffrey Epstein did

1904
01:45:10,160 --> 01:45:13,640
Speaker 5: any sex trafficking of minors, and then he came over

1905
01:45:13,720 --> 01:45:16,040
Speaker 5: the House and told me the same thing in hearing.

1906
01:45:16,920 --> 01:45:21,160
Speaker 5: So the question is did he perjure himself, because here

1907
01:45:21,240 --> 01:45:23,560
Speaker 5: we've got a document that says they glued to a

1908
01:45:23,640 --> 01:45:24,440
Speaker 5: co conspirators.

1909
01:45:26,320 --> 01:45:31,280
Speaker 1: Wow, have you come up with any any explanation for

1910
01:45:31,360 --> 01:45:33,519
Speaker 1: the subterfuge which seems to be going on in connection

1911
01:45:33,560 --> 01:45:37,080
Speaker 1: with documents? I mean, you've got millions of documents. Obviously

1912
01:45:37,160 --> 01:45:39,960
Speaker 1: there are others that have inappropriate reactions in them along

1913
01:45:39,960 --> 01:45:41,720
Speaker 1: the lines of what you were just saying. I mean,

1914
01:45:41,800 --> 01:45:43,800
Speaker 1: for you to have to go into that private room

1915
01:45:43,920 --> 01:45:46,639
Speaker 1: and unredact them and look at them for one individual

1916
01:45:46,720 --> 01:45:49,439
Speaker 1: congressman who actually cares about the truth, that's going to

1917
01:45:49,479 --> 01:45:51,280
Speaker 1: take you a while, isn't it, Congressman Massey.

1918
01:45:52,640 --> 01:45:56,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's millions of documents. I've I spent two hours.

1919
01:45:56,400 --> 01:45:59,360
Speaker 5: I looked at forty documents. I found three of them

1920
01:46:00,120 --> 01:46:04,160
Speaker 5: were inappropriately redacted. I went public with it, and with hours,

1921
01:46:04,360 --> 01:46:08,960
Speaker 5: within hours, the FBI acknowledged what I had found and

1922
01:46:09,120 --> 01:46:14,280
Speaker 5: also publicly admitted or unredacted what was in this file. So,

1923
01:46:14,400 --> 01:46:17,160
Speaker 5: for instance, there's an email in the Epstein files where

1924
01:46:17,320 --> 01:46:22,240
Speaker 5: Epstein says, thanks for the torture video. I really enjoyed it. Well,

1925
01:46:22,280 --> 01:46:26,800
Speaker 5: the question is who sent that because the FBI or

1926
01:46:27,040 --> 01:46:33,519
Speaker 5: dj had redacted the email address. Because they're here's there,

1927
01:46:33,760 --> 01:46:36,880
Speaker 5: they're making the defense that they by law they have

1928
01:46:37,000 --> 01:46:41,000
Speaker 5: to redact personally identifiable information. Well, there's nothing in our

1929
01:46:41,080 --> 01:46:45,240
Speaker 5: law that says redact personally identical information of people who

1930
01:46:45,320 --> 01:46:52,120
Speaker 5: send Jeffrey Epstein torture porn, and our law says for victims. Well,

1931
01:46:52,160 --> 01:46:56,559
Speaker 5: this clearly wasn't a victim. So I unredacted the email address.

1932
01:46:57,120 --> 01:46:59,560
Speaker 5: I looked at it. I didn't recognize it immediately, but

1933
01:46:59,680 --> 01:47:02,920
Speaker 5: I threw back into the DOJ computer and search the

1934
01:47:03,000 --> 01:47:05,920
Speaker 5: Epstein posse for that email address, and it shows up

1935
01:47:06,200 --> 01:47:10,439
Speaker 5: dozens and dozens of times, and it belongs to a

1936
01:47:10,520 --> 01:47:15,479
Speaker 5: billionaire in the United Arab Emirates who's first name is Sultan.

1937
01:47:15,520 --> 01:47:19,960
Speaker 5: I don't know if that's an idol first name, but

1938
01:47:20,439 --> 01:47:22,519
Speaker 5: so I released that name too. So now we know

1939
01:47:22,600 --> 01:47:24,479
Speaker 5: who sent the torture video to Epstein.

1940
01:47:24,800 --> 01:47:27,519
Speaker 1: But you mentioned the law, this isn't There's an underlying

1941
01:47:27,600 --> 01:47:30,320
Speaker 1: law that was passed by bipartisan port to support overwhelmingly,

1942
01:47:30,360 --> 01:47:34,479
Speaker 1: which obligated to produce these documents unredacted, with certain notable exceptions.

1943
01:47:34,520 --> 01:47:37,560
Speaker 1: They have not complied with the law. What recourse is

1944
01:47:37,640 --> 01:47:42,360
Speaker 1: there other than two individually identify erroneously redacted documents one

1945
01:47:42,400 --> 01:47:44,840
Speaker 1: at a time and have them unredact them Congressom Massey.

1946
01:47:47,479 --> 01:47:50,519
Speaker 5: Before we get through the recourse, we'll talk about the

1947
01:47:50,640 --> 01:47:56,240
Speaker 5: other ways they're violating the law. So sometimes on the

1948
01:47:56,320 --> 01:48:00,479
Speaker 5: computer I would hit unredact and the big black reaction

1949
01:48:00,600 --> 01:48:03,200
Speaker 5: that redacts the whole page. We go away and there

1950
01:48:03,240 --> 01:48:06,439
Speaker 5: would be a page that's ninety percent redacted with white

1951
01:48:06,560 --> 01:48:10,240
Speaker 5: boxes instead of black boxes sub reaction, or sometimes you

1952
01:48:10,360 --> 01:48:13,600
Speaker 5: hit unredact and none of the redactions come off. And

1953
01:48:13,720 --> 01:48:17,040
Speaker 5: we asked the DOJ, why are these files? Why can't

1954
01:48:17,080 --> 01:48:19,439
Speaker 5: we unredact them. They're like, well, this is the condition

1955
01:48:19,560 --> 01:48:22,560
Speaker 5: in which we receive the files. Well, the thing is,

1956
01:48:23,360 --> 01:48:27,839
Speaker 5: in other words, they received redacted files. But here's the problem.

1957
01:48:28,320 --> 01:48:31,759
Speaker 5: The law that Rokanna and I wrote says that the FBI,

1958
01:48:32,240 --> 01:48:36,400
Speaker 5: the US Attorneys, and the DOJ have to produce these documents,

1959
01:48:36,720 --> 01:48:40,760
Speaker 5: and the DOJ, specifically the Attorney General is responsible for

1960
01:48:40,920 --> 01:48:45,240
Speaker 5: publishing them publishing them. So if the Attorney General got

1961
01:48:45,680 --> 01:48:49,480
Speaker 5: this material from the FBI or the US Attorneys already redacted,

1962
01:48:50,040 --> 01:48:52,719
Speaker 5: then the FBI and the US Attorneys are not complying

1963
01:48:52,800 --> 01:48:55,080
Speaker 5: with the law. She needs to go back and get those.

1964
01:48:55,600 --> 01:49:00,240
Speaker 5: And finally, there's still documents we know exist. Some of

1965
01:49:00,320 --> 01:49:02,720
Speaker 5: the three or two forms, which are the forms that

1966
01:49:02,800 --> 01:49:06,080
Speaker 5: the FBI fills out after the interview victims. Some of

1967
01:49:06,160 --> 01:49:09,200
Speaker 5: those are still missing, so they've got a lot more

1968
01:49:09,280 --> 01:49:12,880
Speaker 5: work to do. What is the recourse well, and to

1969
01:49:12,880 --> 01:49:15,080
Speaker 5: ask Pam Bondi some questions today and the hearing, and

1970
01:49:15,080 --> 01:49:15,920
Speaker 5: I'm gonna find out.

1971
01:49:16,439 --> 01:49:18,840
Speaker 1: I'm sure you will. Congressman Thomas Messi will take a

1972
01:49:18,920 --> 01:49:22,320
Speaker 1: quick break here will continue more on Epstein files. Trump

1973
01:49:22,320 --> 01:49:27,760
Speaker 1: apparently calling you the talk station eight nineteen couple of

1974
01:49:27,840 --> 01:49:30,880
Speaker 1: the twenty fifty five Kercite talk station Judge Ednapollatan a

1975
01:49:31,000 --> 01:49:33,800
Speaker 1: huge fan of my current guest, Congressman Thomas Messi. He'll

1976
01:49:33,840 --> 01:49:38,240
Speaker 1: be on next and meantime, sticking with the Epstein files.

1977
01:49:38,360 --> 01:49:43,000
Speaker 1: Generally speaking, Congressman Messy, notwithstanding the challenges you were obviously facing,

1978
01:49:43,080 --> 01:49:44,479
Speaker 1: hopefully those will go the way of the DODO and

1979
01:49:44,520 --> 01:49:46,679
Speaker 1: we'll get to see everything we're supposed to see based

1980
01:49:46,760 --> 01:49:49,200
Speaker 1: upon the current state of the law. Is there anything

1981
01:49:49,240 --> 01:49:51,360
Speaker 1: in there that really blew your mind? I mean something

1982
01:49:51,400 --> 01:49:53,560
Speaker 1: that you have seen that my listening audience might be

1983
01:49:53,680 --> 01:49:55,800
Speaker 1: curious about. A lot of rumors and swirling about. I

1984
01:49:55,920 --> 01:49:58,400
Speaker 1: know he bought, you know, hydrochloric acid, and I don't

1985
01:49:58,400 --> 01:50:00,720
Speaker 1: know what to make about that, but anything in there

1986
01:50:00,760 --> 01:50:04,320
Speaker 1: that with substance that like, Okay, here's what we were thinking,

1987
01:50:04,600 --> 01:50:07,840
Speaker 1: or this confirms what we're thinking, or maybe just the

1988
01:50:07,920 --> 01:50:10,759
Speaker 1: absence of any prosecutions that came about with that's obviously

1989
01:50:10,960 --> 01:50:13,120
Speaker 1: a takeaway we can have from what actually happened out

1990
01:50:13,120 --> 01:50:14,560
Speaker 1: in the World Congress from Massey.

1991
01:50:15,080 --> 01:50:18,400
Speaker 5: Well, first of all, if you're watching Fox News, this

1992
01:50:18,600 --> 01:50:24,120
Speaker 5: isn't even happening, Like the mainstream conservative media is totally

1993
01:50:24,240 --> 01:50:27,000
Speaker 5: ignoring this. You've got to go on Facebook, or you've

1994
01:50:27,000 --> 01:50:30,519
Speaker 5: got to go on x or Instagram to even see

1995
01:50:30,920 --> 01:50:34,439
Speaker 5: anything halfway truthful about what's going down with the Epstein files.

1996
01:50:35,120 --> 01:50:39,400
Speaker 5: Three members of government in Great Britain are now no

1997
01:50:39,560 --> 01:50:43,519
Speaker 5: longer in government, the things willing to prosecute his brother now,

1998
01:50:44,160 --> 01:50:48,200
Speaker 5: the princess in Norway is probably no longer eligible to

1999
01:50:48,280 --> 01:50:51,120
Speaker 5: be a queen. And in the United States there's still

2000
01:50:51,240 --> 01:50:55,720
Speaker 5: been zero, zero accountability or repercussions for what's come out.

2001
01:50:56,280 --> 01:50:58,280
Speaker 5: And one of the biggest things we've learned in there

2002
01:50:59,040 --> 01:51:03,880
Speaker 5: is that Howard Lutnik is a straight up liar. He

2003
01:51:04,360 --> 01:51:08,120
Speaker 5: went and said just a few months ago that he

2004
01:51:08,280 --> 01:51:11,000
Speaker 5: met Epstein in two thousand and five, who was disgusted

2005
01:51:11,080 --> 01:51:14,640
Speaker 5: by him, thought he was a pervert and said he

2006
01:51:14,680 --> 01:51:16,640
Speaker 5: would have nothing to do with him ever again, and

2007
01:51:16,760 --> 01:51:19,280
Speaker 5: never did. But what we found out in the files

2008
01:51:19,680 --> 01:51:25,120
Speaker 5: is Epstein took his family on vacation to I'm sorry,

2009
01:51:25,400 --> 01:51:29,360
Speaker 5: Lutnick took his family on vacation to Epstein's island and

2010
01:51:29,479 --> 01:51:32,679
Speaker 5: saw and had lunch with Jeffrey Epstein and his kids

2011
01:51:32,800 --> 01:51:36,280
Speaker 5: and his nanny and his wife. And if that's not enough,

2012
01:51:36,320 --> 01:51:39,960
Speaker 5: they were in business together, they shared phone calls together.

2013
01:51:40,840 --> 01:51:45,559
Speaker 5: And so now yesterday in front of the Senate hearing, Lutnick,

2014
01:51:45,960 --> 01:51:48,800
Speaker 5: by the way, Howard Lutnik is your commerce secretary. He's

2015
01:51:48,840 --> 01:51:52,800
Speaker 5: a billionaire who associated with Epstein but lied to us

2016
01:51:52,880 --> 01:51:54,960
Speaker 5: until his files came out, and said that he didn't

2017
01:51:56,240 --> 01:52:00,160
Speaker 5: you see him in the videos standing behind Trump, he's

2018
01:52:00,160 --> 01:52:04,400
Speaker 5: getting on the plane, when he's getting on the helicopter. Anyways,

2019
01:52:05,360 --> 01:52:08,479
Speaker 5: I think Latinik should resign. I don't trust him. If

2020
01:52:08,520 --> 01:52:11,600
Speaker 5: he's gonna lie about the Epstein stuff so blatantly and

2021
01:52:11,720 --> 01:52:15,599
Speaker 5: then get caught for it, he should resign. He doesn't

2022
01:52:15,720 --> 01:52:18,800
Speaker 5: have our confidence. And he was called out in the

2023
01:52:18,880 --> 01:52:21,559
Speaker 5: Senate hearing yesterday where he admitted that he had been

2024
01:52:21,600 --> 01:52:25,280
Speaker 5: to Epstein's island, but only he said when the files

2025
01:52:25,320 --> 01:52:27,439
Speaker 5: came out, I did what everybody else did. I put

2026
01:52:27,520 --> 01:52:30,120
Speaker 5: my name in there and searched for it. And I

2027
01:52:30,160 --> 01:52:34,719
Speaker 5: don't remember anything that's not in those files. In other words,

2028
01:52:35,080 --> 01:52:37,479
Speaker 5: nothing he could get caught for. Will he admit to

2029
01:52:38,360 --> 01:52:39,560
Speaker 5: unless he can get caught for it.

2030
01:52:39,800 --> 01:52:42,280
Speaker 1: Well, I mentioned the subter views earlier. Is it just

2031
01:52:42,400 --> 01:52:46,000
Speaker 1: this simple quantity of very powerful people around this planet

2032
01:52:46,040 --> 01:52:48,920
Speaker 1: that had all these tight close ties with Epstein? Was

2033
01:52:48,960 --> 01:52:51,240
Speaker 1: it the fear of all the dominoes falling? As I've

2034
01:52:51,280 --> 01:52:52,840
Speaker 1: been referring it to. You mentioned that, you know, the

2035
01:52:53,400 --> 01:52:56,040
Speaker 1: foreign leaders have lost their positions, been fired or being

2036
01:52:56,080 --> 01:52:58,920
Speaker 1: pressured to leave because of the ties with Epstein. I mean,

2037
01:52:59,000 --> 01:53:00,479
Speaker 1: part of me wants to know how on the hell

2038
01:53:00,600 --> 01:53:03,040
Speaker 1: all of these powerful people got connected with Epstein, unless,

2039
01:53:03,040 --> 01:53:07,439
Speaker 1: of course, it involves child molestation. But uh, I'm just

2040
01:53:07,520 --> 01:53:10,080
Speaker 1: looking for a reason why we've gone so long without

2041
01:53:10,120 --> 01:53:12,520
Speaker 1: seeing these documents before Congress with Messy.

2042
01:53:14,240 --> 01:53:16,400
Speaker 5: Because these are the most powerful people on the planet.

2043
01:53:17,280 --> 01:53:24,760
Speaker 5: They're they're not only billionaires, they're in government, you know,

2044
01:53:25,000 --> 01:53:30,080
Speaker 5: they're in movies. They're they're very powerful people, and they

2045
01:53:30,120 --> 01:53:33,560
Speaker 5: have a lot of influence, and I say this is

2046
01:53:33,600 --> 01:53:38,719
Speaker 5: bigger than Watergate and bigger than Iron Contra. Because this scandal,

2047
01:53:39,560 --> 01:53:43,240
Speaker 5: we've just scratched the top of it, and it spans

2048
01:53:43,560 --> 01:53:49,519
Speaker 5: four administrations and even more attorneys general over the past

2049
01:53:49,720 --> 01:53:54,320
Speaker 5: couple of decades. It's a big scandal. And anybody who

2050
01:53:54,400 --> 01:53:57,680
Speaker 5: says it's no big deal is those are people you

2051
01:53:57,720 --> 01:53:58,519
Speaker 5: should not trust.

2052
01:53:59,520 --> 01:54:01,720
Speaker 1: Well, fair, fair enough, and thankfully Congressman asks who we

2053
01:54:01,800 --> 01:54:03,160
Speaker 1: have you to get to the bottom of it may

2054
01:54:03,200 --> 01:54:05,519
Speaker 1: take a while, but I know you will. You've been

2055
01:54:06,080 --> 01:54:08,680
Speaker 1: on this on this track for a long time. Real

2056
01:54:08,760 --> 01:54:12,439
Speaker 1: quick here before we part company. The tariff vote, I

2057
01:54:12,520 --> 01:54:15,439
Speaker 1: guess members of Congress maybe trying to undo Donald Trump's tariffs.

2058
01:54:15,520 --> 01:54:17,840
Speaker 1: I know you made what some are characterizing as a

2059
01:54:17,880 --> 01:54:21,240
Speaker 1: controversial vote, but considering the procedural situation, it seemed like

2060
01:54:21,280 --> 01:54:23,799
Speaker 1: I understand where you were coming from. Are you against

2061
01:54:23,880 --> 01:54:28,040
Speaker 1: the tariffs that Donald Trumps has imposed or was this

2062
01:54:28,160 --> 01:54:31,320
Speaker 1: something to do with the procedural posture of that piece

2063
01:54:31,360 --> 01:54:32,000
Speaker 1: of legislation.

2064
01:54:33,880 --> 01:54:37,120
Speaker 5: Well, let me said a few things straight. If we

2065
01:54:37,280 --> 01:54:39,280
Speaker 5: could go back to the way it was the first

2066
01:54:39,280 --> 01:54:41,880
Speaker 5: one hundred and fifty years of this country and get

2067
01:54:42,000 --> 01:54:44,520
Speaker 5: rid of the income tax and replace it with tariffs.

2068
01:54:45,000 --> 01:54:48,600
Speaker 5: I would be seriously interested in that option. Okay, but

2069
01:54:49,200 --> 01:54:51,040
Speaker 5: what we have now is we have tariffs and we

2070
01:54:51,120 --> 01:54:55,320
Speaker 5: have an income tax. And there's a couple other problems.

2071
01:54:55,560 --> 01:54:58,400
Speaker 5: Because the tariffs can change any day, depending on what

2072
01:54:58,520 --> 01:55:00,600
Speaker 5: side of the bed the president gets up on. They

2073
01:55:00,600 --> 01:55:03,840
Speaker 5: don't really have the incentives that you think they would like.

2074
01:55:03,960 --> 01:55:08,360
Speaker 5: Factories are not importing new tooling to make things in

2075
01:55:08,360 --> 01:55:11,760
Speaker 5: the United States instead of overseas because number one, the

2076
01:55:11,840 --> 01:55:14,680
Speaker 5: tariffs apply to the new tooling they bring in, and

2077
01:55:14,840 --> 01:55:17,920
Speaker 5: number two, they might pay a fifty percent tariff on

2078
01:55:18,080 --> 01:55:21,680
Speaker 5: us let's say a stamping machine that makes venders for cars,

2079
01:55:22,120 --> 01:55:25,400
Speaker 5: and then the tariff goes away tomorrow and it doesn't

2080
01:55:25,440 --> 01:55:31,000
Speaker 5: make business sense anymore so. And then finally, the Constitution

2081
01:55:31,240 --> 01:55:34,800
Speaker 5: is very clear on this. All taxes have to originate

2082
01:55:35,160 --> 01:55:37,800
Speaker 5: not just in Congress, but in the House of Representatives.

2083
01:55:38,600 --> 01:55:41,200
Speaker 5: And you know, you may be sitting there and thinking, oh,

2084
01:55:41,240 --> 01:55:43,840
Speaker 5: these are tariffs. They're not taxes. We have an income tax,

2085
01:55:43,880 --> 01:55:45,880
Speaker 5: and then these are tariffs. They're a totally different thing.

2086
01:55:46,760 --> 01:55:49,160
Speaker 5: It's the wrong way of thinking about this because for

2087
01:55:49,240 --> 01:55:52,400
Speaker 5: the first one hundred and fifty years of our country,

2088
01:55:52,960 --> 01:55:57,200
Speaker 5: over ninety percent of our taxes were from tariffs. Like

2089
01:55:57,480 --> 01:56:00,960
Speaker 5: when the Founder said that the House of Senatives is

2090
01:56:01,040 --> 01:56:03,680
Speaker 5: the one that has to decide whether we have taxes

2091
01:56:03,800 --> 01:56:08,320
Speaker 5: or not, they were talking about tariffs, and that was

2092
01:56:08,480 --> 01:56:11,000
Speaker 5: known for the first one hundred and fifty years. So

2093
01:56:12,160 --> 01:56:14,880
Speaker 5: in the nineteen seventy six it passed a law that

2094
01:56:14,960 --> 01:56:17,440
Speaker 5: says the president can declare emergency, but when he does,

2095
01:56:17,960 --> 01:56:22,800
Speaker 5: Congress within fifteen days can undo the emergency. Well, in

2096
01:56:22,960 --> 01:56:27,400
Speaker 5: order to implement some of these TIFFs, the president declared emergencies,

2097
01:56:27,520 --> 01:56:30,760
Speaker 5: maybe a fentanyl emergency, but then he ends up taxing

2098
01:56:30,840 --> 01:56:34,480
Speaker 5: farm products because there's a fentanyl emergency. And the Supreme

2099
01:56:34,520 --> 01:56:36,640
Speaker 5: Court's going to rule on this soon enough, I think.

2100
01:56:37,560 --> 01:56:41,240
Speaker 5: But in the meantime, yesterday you have the Speaker of

2101
01:56:41,280 --> 01:56:44,240
Speaker 5: the House trying to pass a resolution that said a

2102
01:56:44,360 --> 01:56:46,480
Speaker 5: day is not a day for the purposes of the

2103
01:56:46,560 --> 01:56:50,680
Speaker 5: fifteen day clock in the nineteen seventy six law. It's

2104
01:56:50,840 --> 01:56:56,600
Speaker 5: totally bogus way of not voting on tariffs by subverting

2105
01:56:56,680 --> 01:57:01,640
Speaker 5: the law and transparency. What whatever you believe about tariffs,

2106
01:57:02,080 --> 01:57:04,960
Speaker 5: I would hope if you've read the Constitution, you know

2107
01:57:05,080 --> 01:57:07,320
Speaker 5: that we have to vote on these things. You can't

2108
01:57:07,360 --> 01:57:09,640
Speaker 5: have a president turn a tax on one day and

2109
01:57:09,720 --> 01:57:10,640
Speaker 5: turn it off the next.

2110
01:57:11,320 --> 01:57:13,640
Speaker 1: Congress Thom Thomas Messi, you stumbled upon judging and a

2111
01:57:13,680 --> 01:57:18,560
Speaker 1: politana's topic of conversation, the coming constitutional ice age. I

2112
01:57:18,600 --> 01:57:21,280
Speaker 1: think you'd probably share your concerns about tarifs, Congressome Messi.

2113
01:57:21,360 --> 01:57:23,920
Speaker 1: He still believes in the Constitution as you do, and

2114
01:57:24,080 --> 01:57:25,640
Speaker 1: I can't thank you enough for the what you do.

2115
01:57:25,760 --> 01:57:28,120
Speaker 1: Congressom Messy, keep fighting the good fight, and I wish

2116
01:57:28,200 --> 01:57:29,760
Speaker 1: you all the best, keeping your voice for the rest

2117
01:57:29,800 --> 01:57:32,920
Speaker 1: of the day. You're gonna need it, my friend, thank

2118
01:57:33,000 --> 01:57:35,840
Speaker 1: you and give my judge the best. I will be

2119
01:57:35,960 --> 01:57:37,560
Speaker 1: more than happy to do that. You know, he's a

2120
01:57:37,640 --> 01:57:39,320
Speaker 1: huge fan of yours. At think twenty eight right now,

2121
01:57:39,360 --> 01:57:41,520
Speaker 1: and you went over your allotted times. Streuker told me

2122
01:57:41,640 --> 01:57:45,520
Speaker 1: to tell you that Congress fan Massy I didn't pull

Speaker 1: he's referring to Judge entered Apoloitano. Every morning Wednesday at

2133
01:58:24,120 --> 01:58:25,760
Speaker 1: eight to thirty, we get to hear from the judge

2134
01:58:26,320 --> 01:58:29,720
Speaker 1: and a constitutional protector. He is welcome back, you're honor.

2135
01:58:29,720 --> 01:58:31,040
Speaker 1: It's always a pleasure to have me on the fifty

2136
01:58:31,040 --> 01:58:34,120
Speaker 1: five KRC morning show. He's tapping me. He can't hear us. Joe,

2137
01:58:38,200 --> 01:58:41,120
Speaker 1: all right, he's gonna have to call. Oh, hell's bells.

2138
01:58:41,200 --> 01:58:44,600
Speaker 1: How is it? That's always ends up happening. So Judge

2139
01:58:44,760 --> 01:58:46,520
Speaker 1: or Joe, you want to get him on the phone,

2140
01:58:46,560 --> 01:58:48,680
Speaker 1: please as soon as possible, and we'll see if we

2141
01:58:48,760 --> 01:58:51,560
Speaker 1: can't work this out. It's always troubling when this happens.

2142
01:58:51,840 --> 01:58:53,720
Speaker 1: I definitely was going to ask him about the terrorf situation,

2143
01:58:53,760 --> 01:58:55,920
Speaker 1: because of course that's a constitutional issue as framed by

2144
01:58:55,920 --> 01:58:59,040
Speaker 1: Congressman Massey. But we also have this whole idea of

2145
01:58:59,560 --> 01:59:04,280
Speaker 1: administ warrants versus judicial warrants, and he's talked about that before.

2146
01:59:04,360 --> 01:59:07,480
Speaker 1: In connection with the demands that the Democrats are seeking

2147
01:59:08,160 --> 01:59:11,560
Speaker 1: to get the government reopened. They want judicial warrants only,

2148
01:59:12,040 --> 01:59:14,720
Speaker 1: and the judges comment about that many times before, So

2149
01:59:14,760 --> 01:59:16,560
Speaker 1: we're gonna hear a little bit about that. In context

2150
01:59:16,640 --> 01:59:21,240
Speaker 1: of his column tonight, the Coming Constitutional ice Age, judge Edapoltanic,

2151
01:59:21,280 --> 01:59:21,760
Speaker 1: can you hear me?

2152
01:59:21,840 --> 01:59:24,640
Speaker 2: Now? Yeah, they hear you and that, Brian, and I

2153
01:59:24,880 --> 01:59:27,960
Speaker 2: see you. I see you through the wizardry of the

2154
01:59:28,080 --> 01:59:30,880
Speaker 2: digital system, but I hear it through an old fashioned son.

2155
01:59:31,160 --> 01:59:33,920
Speaker 1: Well, it is crazy. I don't know how we always

2156
01:59:33,920 --> 01:59:37,160
Speaker 1: stumble into these problems, but we'll blame the gremlins and

2157
01:59:37,280 --> 01:59:40,480
Speaker 1: my conspiracy theory. Audience are probably suggesting maybe some left

2158
01:59:40,520 --> 01:59:45,000
Speaker 1: wingers out there, or people who don't like Congressman Thomas

2159
01:59:45,040 --> 01:59:47,160
Speaker 1: Massy or you and your positions on the Constitution are

2160
01:59:47,200 --> 01:59:51,040
Speaker 1: sabotaging the segment. Anyway, your column tonight comes out at midnight,

2161
01:59:51,120 --> 01:59:54,600
Speaker 1: the coming Constitutional ice Age. Congress a messy kind of

2162
01:59:54,600 --> 01:59:56,400
Speaker 1: stumbled upon this in the context of a question. I

2163
01:59:56,440 --> 01:59:59,240
Speaker 1: asked him about his vote on tariffs, and he said, well,

2164
01:59:59,320 --> 02:00:02,440
Speaker 1: the Constitution very clear, tariffs are the power of Congress,

2165
02:00:02,560 --> 02:00:06,040
Speaker 1: not for the president. You to latterly wage, and he

2166
02:00:06,400 --> 02:00:08,920
Speaker 1: is not in favor of Donald Trump's tariffs. Have you

2167
02:00:08,960 --> 02:00:10,880
Speaker 1: and I talked about this before. I don't recall that

2168
02:00:11,000 --> 02:00:13,160
Speaker 1: this subject matter has come up, and I apologize if

2169
02:00:13,160 --> 02:00:15,960
Speaker 1: it has your honor, But your position relative the tariffs,

2170
02:00:15,960 --> 02:00:18,040
Speaker 1: which the Supreme Court's got a case in front of

2171
02:00:18,080 --> 02:00:18,640
Speaker 1: it right now.

2172
02:00:19,640 --> 02:00:23,760
Speaker 2: I wish the Supreme Court would rule. We keep hearing

2173
02:00:24,120 --> 02:00:28,640
Speaker 2: rumors that there are colossal battles going on in the

2174
02:00:28,720 --> 02:00:33,879
Speaker 2: Supreme Court over this. Congressman Massey is one hundred percent correct.

2175
02:00:34,320 --> 02:00:37,480
Speaker 2: A tariff is a tax. It's a sales tax, and

2176
02:00:37,720 --> 02:00:41,040
Speaker 2: co only Congress can impose taxes. It's the very first

2177
02:00:41,280 --> 02:00:45,560
Speaker 2: authority given to the Congress in the Constitution. The President

2178
02:00:45,640 --> 02:00:49,760
Speaker 2: can't impose them on his own. Presidents have imposed tariffs,

2179
02:00:49,800 --> 02:00:53,080
Speaker 2: but only when Congress has expressly authorized them to do so.

2180
02:00:53,880 --> 02:00:58,520
Speaker 2: Congress has never authorized President Trump to impose tariffs. In fact,

2181
02:00:58,560 --> 02:01:02,200
Speaker 2: the statute on which he really lives doesn't even mention tariff.

2182
02:01:02,720 --> 02:01:06,000
Speaker 2: The President's argument is that tariffs are an instrument of

2183
02:01:06,120 --> 02:01:11,560
Speaker 2: foreign policy, and foreign policy is exclusively an executive function.

2184
02:01:12,280 --> 02:01:16,600
Speaker 2: But the sounder argument is the Congressman Massy argument, the

2185
02:01:16,680 --> 02:01:19,320
Speaker 2: one that was held up by the Trout Court and

2186
02:01:19,560 --> 02:01:22,320
Speaker 2: the Appellate Court, and the one that I think of

2187
02:01:22,400 --> 02:01:25,280
Speaker 2: the Supreme Court will hold up as well. But as

2188
02:01:25,360 --> 02:01:28,160
Speaker 2: I said, we're still waiting for a ruling to come down.

2189
02:01:28,760 --> 02:01:31,520
Speaker 1: Well, I guess the way I see it, having worked

2190
02:01:31,560 --> 02:01:34,000
Speaker 1: with at least Trump and his actions on tariffs, he

2191
02:01:34,160 --> 02:01:37,200
Speaker 1: imposes our love's of tariff for threatens one and uses

2192
02:01:37,320 --> 02:01:41,920
Speaker 1: that threat as a vehicle to negotiate some foreign policy

2193
02:01:42,480 --> 02:01:46,120
Speaker 1: agreement with a foreign nation. So it became the motivating

2194
02:01:46,200 --> 02:01:48,920
Speaker 1: factor for some foreign land to engage in a foreign

2195
02:01:48,960 --> 02:01:52,160
Speaker 1: policy discussion. But you're saying that that's like an original sin.

2196
02:01:52,320 --> 02:01:54,160
Speaker 1: You can't do it in the first place, Therefore it

2197
02:01:54,200 --> 02:01:56,320
Speaker 1: doesn't act as a valid threat to the foreign country.

2198
02:01:56,960 --> 02:01:59,840
Speaker 2: Well, yes, yes, nicely putting. Of course, he's also done

2199
02:01:59,880 --> 02:02:08,840
Speaker 2: it very petty and personal reasons. When the governor general

2200
02:02:08,960 --> 02:02:11,200
Speaker 2: or Prime minister I'm not sure what his title is

2201
02:02:11,520 --> 02:02:18,440
Speaker 2: of Quebec ran a television ad of Ronald Reagan lasting tariffs.

2202
02:02:19,720 --> 02:02:24,480
Speaker 2: Trump got so angry that he raised tariffs on Canada.

2203
02:02:24,640 --> 02:02:31,960
Speaker 2: I mean, this type of presidential mercurial personal behavior with

2204
02:02:32,200 --> 02:02:35,200
Speaker 2: respect to the taxes that people paid. These taxes are

2205
02:02:35,240 --> 02:02:40,160
Speaker 2: paid by Americans was never contemplated or authorized anywhere in

2206
02:02:40,280 --> 02:02:44,960
Speaker 2: the Constitution or in Supreme Court jurisprudence. This isn't even

2207
02:02:44,960 --> 02:02:47,480
Speaker 2: a close call in my view, nor was it a

2208
02:02:47,560 --> 02:02:50,480
Speaker 2: close call at the trial court. Tralcourt in this case

2209
02:02:50,600 --> 02:02:52,960
Speaker 2: is not a jury, it's a panel of three judges.

2210
02:02:54,080 --> 02:02:57,840
Speaker 2: Then there's the appellate panel. The trail court was unanimous

2211
02:02:57,880 --> 02:03:01,720
Speaker 2: against it. The appellate panel was seven to four against it.

2212
02:03:02,000 --> 02:03:05,800
Speaker 2: Now it's been before the Supreme Court since September. Here

2213
02:03:05,880 --> 02:03:08,200
Speaker 2: we are in February, and we don't have a ruling yet.

2214
02:03:08,760 --> 02:03:12,120
Speaker 1: Fair enough, Pivoting over to constitutional issue number two, declarations

2215
02:03:12,160 --> 02:03:15,120
Speaker 1: of war, we seem to be all ready to I mean,

2216
02:03:15,120 --> 02:03:18,600
Speaker 1: we're going to massed a massive force to deal with Iran. Obviously,

2217
02:03:18,680 --> 02:03:21,040
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is endeavoring to get some concessions from Iran

2218
02:03:21,080 --> 02:03:23,280
Speaker 1: regard to their missile plans that they don't want to.

2219
02:03:23,360 --> 02:03:25,840
Speaker 1: They say they won't concede an inch on missiles. So

2220
02:03:26,000 --> 02:03:27,720
Speaker 1: we seem to be the stalemate with Iran. But the

2221
02:03:28,160 --> 02:03:31,160
Speaker 1: implicit threat behind all this is the massive armada of

2222
02:03:31,360 --> 02:03:34,080
Speaker 1: US military hard where that's floating around very close, and

2223
02:03:34,240 --> 02:03:37,880
Speaker 1: the veiled threat that Donald Trump's gonna unleash what seems

2224
02:03:37,920 --> 02:03:40,480
Speaker 1: to me to be an actual outright declaration of war

2225
02:03:40,640 --> 02:03:44,920
Speaker 1: talking about regime change, unlike perhaps a contrast, some may

2226
02:03:45,040 --> 02:03:48,680
Speaker 1: make like a single military strike on nuclear facilities to

2227
02:03:48,920 --> 02:03:51,520
Speaker 1: maybe rid the world of an impending nuclear threat. But

2228
02:03:51,600 --> 02:03:54,760
Speaker 1: this is sounds to me like literally all out war,

2229
02:03:54,960 --> 02:03:57,120
Speaker 1: which I would argue, and I think you may feel

2230
02:03:57,160 --> 02:03:59,600
Speaker 1: the same way. We'll find out that Congress needs to

2231
02:03:59,600 --> 02:04:00,000
Speaker 1: be involved.

2232
02:04:01,920 --> 02:04:06,640
Speaker 2: Could not be clearer. The president wages the wars that

2233
02:04:06,880 --> 02:04:12,040
Speaker 2: Congress declares he can't invade another country in tending to

2234
02:04:12,080 --> 02:04:16,520
Speaker 2: bring about regime change, to change the government effectively. That's

2235
02:04:16,560 --> 02:04:19,480
Speaker 2: why we fought the Nazis, not to kill the German people,

2236
02:04:19,600 --> 02:04:22,440
Speaker 2: but to change the government. You can't do these things

2237
02:04:23,280 --> 02:04:26,560
Speaker 2: under the Constitution without a declaration of war from Congress.

2238
02:04:26,640 --> 02:04:29,880
Speaker 2: He couldn't care less. Look as we speak, he may

2239
02:04:29,960 --> 02:04:34,800
Speaker 2: be getting ready to bomb Mexico. Now I'm not exaggerating.

2240
02:04:34,880 --> 02:04:39,760
Speaker 2: The FAA just ordered all aircraft away from the El

2241
02:04:39,880 --> 02:04:43,480
Speaker 2: Paso region because of an impending emergency. Now, what the

2242
02:04:43,560 --> 02:04:46,560
Speaker 2: heck could that be other than maybe drun strikes on

2243
02:04:46,800 --> 02:04:53,120
Speaker 2: cartels in Mexico. That's called an invasion. It Congress authorized that,

2244
02:04:53,320 --> 02:04:53,879
Speaker 2: of course.

2245
02:04:53,760 --> 02:04:58,640
Speaker 1: Not And constitutional issue number three, the subject Maney of

2246
02:04:58,720 --> 02:05:02,080
Speaker 1: your column becoming conscitutional ice age back to the concept

2247
02:05:02,120 --> 02:05:05,760
Speaker 1: of administrative warrants versus judicial warrants. You're on record previously

2248
02:05:05,920 --> 02:05:09,720
Speaker 1: judicial warrants are obligated under these circumstances. Administrative warrants are

2249
02:05:09,720 --> 02:05:12,320
Speaker 1: a sort of whole cloth creation, the idea that a

2250
02:05:12,400 --> 02:05:16,760
Speaker 1: federal agent can authorize the entry into someone's about or

2251
02:05:16,760 --> 02:05:20,560
Speaker 1: building absent a judicial review with probable causes required by

2252
02:05:20,600 --> 02:05:23,320
Speaker 1: the Constitution. Something in your article, though, I wanted you

2253
02:05:23,360 --> 02:05:25,440
Speaker 1: explain to my listeners because I know they're going to

2254
02:05:25,480 --> 02:05:29,600
Speaker 1: read it. You start a paragraph eight or nine, Entering

2255
02:05:29,680 --> 02:05:33,879
Speaker 1: the United States illegally is a federal crime. Next paragraph,

2256
02:05:34,000 --> 02:05:36,600
Speaker 1: entering the US illegally and remaining here beyond the time

2257
02:05:36,680 --> 02:05:39,760
Speaker 1: limits imposed at the time of entry is not a crime.

2258
02:05:39,880 --> 02:05:43,000
Speaker 1: Can you explain the distinction between those two if you

2259
02:05:43,040 --> 02:05:43,680
Speaker 1: don't mind, sir.

2260
02:05:45,800 --> 02:05:52,640
Speaker 2: Well, Congress has not characterized overstaying your permit as a crime.

2261
02:05:52,760 --> 02:05:57,680
Speaker 2: That's a civil wrong. Therefore, no judge would sign and

2262
02:05:57,880 --> 02:06:00,960
Speaker 2: arrest warrant for anybody, which is where they've created this

2263
02:06:01,160 --> 02:06:03,760
Speaker 2: administrative warrant nonsense, so that they can.

2264
02:06:03,840 --> 02:06:05,080
Speaker 5: Arrest these people.

2265
02:06:05,560 --> 02:06:10,480
Speaker 2: So somebody comes here on a student visa, they finish graduating,

2266
02:06:10,600 --> 02:06:14,320
Speaker 2: they don't return the visas expired, They get married, they

2267
02:06:14,400 --> 02:06:18,280
Speaker 2: have children, they have a job, they have grandchildren, they've

2268
02:06:18,320 --> 02:06:20,960
Speaker 2: been here for thirty years, they pay taxes, they have

2269
02:06:21,040 --> 02:06:23,560
Speaker 2: a Social Security number, they don't vote, and not an

2270
02:06:23,560 --> 02:06:28,840
Speaker 2: American citizen. Their spouse is, their children are their grandchildren are?

2271
02:06:29,720 --> 02:06:33,920
Speaker 2: Can they be arrested? No, but I will arrest them anyway.

2272
02:06:33,960 --> 02:06:36,560
Speaker 2: They can't be arrested because no judge would sign an

2273
02:06:36,640 --> 02:06:40,200
Speaker 2: arrest warrant because that is not a crime. The crime

2274
02:06:40,480 --> 02:06:46,280
Speaker 2: is the illegal entry they entered legally. Overstaying your legal

2275
02:06:46,560 --> 02:06:50,320
Speaker 2: entry is a civil wrong, like failing to shovel your

2276
02:06:50,520 --> 02:06:54,560
Speaker 2: sidewalk or paying your taxes too late. These things are wrong,

2277
02:06:55,000 --> 02:06:58,280
Speaker 2: but they're not criminal. Therefore they can't be the basis

2278
02:06:58,440 --> 02:07:02,440
Speaker 2: for an arrest. Therefore, ICE has made up its own

2279
02:07:02,600 --> 02:07:05,680
Speaker 2: rules so that it can arrest these people. It's rules

2280
02:07:05,760 --> 02:07:09,400
Speaker 2: in utter contravention of the clear language of the Constitution.

2281
02:07:10,440 --> 02:07:15,480
Speaker 2: Until yesterday, actually until Friday, this was all ICE nonsense.

2282
02:07:16,080 --> 02:07:19,760
Speaker 2: On Friday, at United States Court of Appeals ratified it.

2283
02:07:20,360 --> 02:07:24,680
Speaker 2: That's two judges sitting on the fifteen judge Court of

2284
02:07:24,720 --> 02:07:27,520
Speaker 2: Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. I would imagine I know

2285
02:07:27,680 --> 02:07:29,200
Speaker 2: that this will be appealed. I don't know what the

2286
02:07:29,280 --> 02:07:30,160
Speaker 2: Supreme Court will do.

2287
02:07:30,280 --> 02:07:33,280
Speaker 1: With it, probably an on bank review first before it

2288
02:07:33,320 --> 02:07:34,400
Speaker 1: goes up to the Supreme Court.

2289
02:07:35,400 --> 02:07:39,080
Speaker 5: I will this is the most conservative court in the Union,

2290
02:07:40,040 --> 02:07:44,760
Speaker 5: but I mean one of these, some of these the

2291
02:07:44,920 --> 02:07:50,360
Speaker 5: conservative judges of a libertarian or a constitutionalist strain in them,

2292
02:07:50,440 --> 02:07:52,720
Speaker 5: even though they've been appointed by Donald Trump. And I've

2293
02:07:52,800 --> 02:07:56,320
Speaker 5: not gone along with this nonsense to the extent that

2294
02:07:56,440 --> 02:07:59,800
Speaker 5: this will tee up the concept of administrative varnce for

2295
02:07:59,880 --> 02:08:03,560
Speaker 5: the Supreme Court finally to rule on that's a good thing.

2296
02:08:04,000 --> 02:08:06,880
Speaker 5: But to the extent they might be ratified, it would

2297
02:08:07,000 --> 02:08:09,360
Speaker 5: utterly fly in the face of the Fourth Amendment.

2298
02:08:10,240 --> 02:08:13,000
Speaker 1: Excuse me. Judging of Paulton will always appreciate your stage

2299
02:08:13,040 --> 02:08:17,240
Speaker 1: wisdom and well your commitment to the Constitution the United

2300
02:08:17,280 --> 02:08:20,320
Speaker 1: States of America. Who's on the program today, Judging Freedom?

2301
02:08:20,400 --> 02:08:22,880
Speaker 1: Judging of Poulton is podcast which I'll encourage my listeners

2302
02:08:22,880 --> 02:08:23,640
Speaker 1: to check out as well.

2303
02:08:24,680 --> 02:08:28,360
Speaker 2: I have two of my superstars, Scott Ritter and Professor

2304
02:08:28,960 --> 02:08:33,960
Speaker 2: Jeffrey Sachs. How soon will Trump do what Benjamin Etsigna

2305
02:08:34,040 --> 02:08:37,080
Speaker 2: who has come here to ask him to do, which

2306
02:08:37,200 --> 02:08:42,360
Speaker 2: is to invade Iran for the benefit of the expansion

2307
02:08:42,480 --> 02:08:47,240
Speaker 2: of Israel's borders, Because Iran poses no national security threat

2308
02:08:47,280 --> 02:08:50,800
Speaker 2: to the United States. That's the other reason corongressy won't

2309
02:08:50,840 --> 02:08:52,919
Speaker 2: get the declaration of war from Congress.

2310
02:08:53,520 --> 02:08:56,120
Speaker 1: That is true certainly about that, and that's I guess

2311
02:08:56,160 --> 02:08:59,040
Speaker 1: that's really the key component here. They may be a threat,

2312
02:08:59,160 --> 02:09:02,800
Speaker 1: imminent threat, xistential threat to Israel, but Iran is not

2313
02:09:03,160 --> 02:09:05,400
Speaker 1: an existential threat or eminent threat to the United States

2314
02:09:05,440 --> 02:09:08,120
Speaker 1: of America, which is to the point, and it's well
