Now 20 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 1: that's not surprising. Last year's race was the single biggest 21 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 1: judicial election in American history. Not Wisconsin history, American history. 22 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 1: We will break down all the numbers in just a second. 23 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: Transportation Security Administration officers TSA. They are receiving their first 24 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 1: paychecks in six weeks after an executive order by President 25 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,279 Speaker 1: Trump took effect. Lines at airports are coming down amid 26 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 1: the spring break rush, with ice agents deployed to help 27 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 1: with crowd control. Gas prices have now topped four dollars 28 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 1: a gallon amid uncertainty in the Strait of Hormuz chaos 29 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: there is leading to a supply crunch globally. Naturally, Liberals 30 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: have jumped on this, apparently forgetting that under Joe Biden, 31 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 1: gas price is topped five dollars a gallon in the 32 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 1: summer of twenty two. That was the first and only 33 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: time I'm in US history that happened. We will discuss 34 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: later on in the show. President Trump is again today 35 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,399 Speaker 1: urging Iran to take a deal or else the remnants 36 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 1: of the Ayatolas regime will be totally wiped out. The 37 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 1: daily Trump date coming up at four to six after that. 38 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 1: Today is the trans Day of Visibility, not to be 39 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: confused with the Trans Day of Remembrance or any of 40 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,919 Speaker 1: the other one hundred and fifty days on the calendar 41 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: each year dedicated to LGBTQ celebration or awareness. Seriously, forty 42 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 1: one percent of each year. We break it all down 43 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: humming up later on here on the Dan O'Donnell Show. 44 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: Right now though, an update on Wisconsin's largest early vote 45 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: drive on day five that was Tuesday past twenty four hours. Basically, 46 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: this is how we're counting it. Two hundred and eighty 47 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: seven in person early votes registered to bring our five 48 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 1: day total to two thousand, one hundred and sixty six 49 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 1: early votes. Here's how it works. You probably know exactly 50 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 1: how it works by now. In case you don't, first 51 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: head out there and vote early, get out past your ballot, 52 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: take your wife with you, your husband, your kids if 53 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 1: they're home for spring break, a elderly relative, maybe a 54 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: neighbor mom, dad, get them out there early vote. Once 55 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: you early vote, then you are heading to our adventnows 56 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 1: dot com talk and text line to shoot me a 57 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 1: text let me know that you early voted. Tell me 58 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 1: exactly who you brought with you. Tell me the numbers 59 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 1: that you are bringing with you. Four one, four, seven, 60 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: nine to nine eleven thirty On the adventnows dot com 61 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 1: talk and text line, so we can get you logged, 62 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 1: we can get you counted. Now you might have noticed. 63 00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 1: I actually was just looking for early vote totals and 64 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 1: preparing for today show this morning, and I happen to 65 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: see a tweet of mine from Believe it or Not. 66 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: This was October of twenty twenty four, So this was 67 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 1: well in the presidential election. 68 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 2: Cycle we had after I believe it. 69 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: Was six days, we had something like nine thousand early votes. 70 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: I'm like, how in the name of all things good 71 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: and holy did I count up all of those early votes? That, 72 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 1: of course was a presidential race, No real surprise. We 73 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:34,480 Speaker 1: had something like five times the number of early votes. 74 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 1: I actually think it might have been day four, so 75 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,040 Speaker 1: it's like a shorter period of time. We had a stunning, 76 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: truly stunning number of in person early votes, and we 77 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:45,279 Speaker 1: had massive turnout. 78 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 2: Of course, it was a presidential year. 79 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 1: Last year, we also had a much bigger turnout for 80 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: the state Supreme Court election, not surprising because it was 81 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: for ideological. 82 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 2: Control of the court. 83 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: According to Urban Milwaukee dot Com, they crunched the numbers 84 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:06,280 Speaker 1: from the Wisconsin Elections Commission. The number of absentee ballots 85 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 1: cast so far, and this is of last night, Monday, 86 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 1: March thirtieth. The number of absentee ballots cast so far 87 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty six is one hundred twelve thousand behind 88 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 1: the pace set in twenty twenty five, WEK reporting one 89 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:27,479 Speaker 1: hundred forty six thousand absentee ballots had been returned in 90 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:31,279 Speaker 1: that Supreme Court matchup, and that is just a fraction 91 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:36,160 Speaker 1: of what the return number was twelve months ago, when 92 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:40,799 Speaker 1: Brad Schimmel was running against now Justice Susan Crawford. March 93 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: twenty fourth, twenty twenty five, WEK reported two hundred and 94 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: fifty eight thousand absentee ballots had been returned. Those totals 95 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 1: include in person absentee voting typically known as early voting. 96 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 1: Last year, one hundred twenty three thousand absentee votes were 97 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: cast early this year, that number is fifty three thousand, 98 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: and one hundred and seventy three. I am actually now 99 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: that I say those numbers out loud, I'm actually really proud, 100 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 1: folks that we have two thousand, one hundred and sixty six. 101 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: That's a truly huge percentage. I mean, we're just one 102 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: radio show broadcasting in two media markets in Wisconsin, granted 103 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 1: by far the two biggest media markets, but still and 104 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 1: a lot of these do include I should have a caveat. 105 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: A lot of people have been telling me, hey, Dan, 106 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,040 Speaker 1: we mailed back our early vote. But the fact that 107 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 1: we have got two thousand of the fifty three thousand 108 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 1: total in person early votes that are coming through the 109 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: state's largest early vote trive folks. I'm actually feeling very 110 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: very good about that we are doing our part here 111 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:48,039 Speaker 1: in Dan Nation, our listener army getting out to the 112 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 1: polls early. Now, there is also some bad news in 113 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: this vote total because of where the in person early 114 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,080 Speaker 1: votes are coming from. There have been a number of 115 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 1: different analyzes that have been posted on social media, and 116 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: I forget, I do apologize. I want to give credit 117 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: where credit is due. There is somebody on social media 118 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:15,679 Speaker 1: who is going through the percentage from Milwaukee and Madison, 119 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: Milwaukee County and Dane County. Because we don't have partisan primaries, 120 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 1: we don't have you don't register for a political party 121 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: in this state, so it's really difficult to tell what 122 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: kind of Republican turnout and what kind of Democrat turnout 123 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 1: there is. It would be largely irrelevant in a spring 124 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: election because this is at least ostensibly nonpartisan. But in 125 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: other states you can get like Pennsylvania for example, as 126 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 1: a classic example where you can tell you can tell 127 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: before presidential races exactly where the votes are coming from 128 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: because registered Republicans are turning in this many ballots, registered 129 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: Democrats are turning in this many ballots. You can glean 130 00:07:56,080 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: a lot of information from the number of registrations. This 131 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: many people are registering as Republicans, this many people are 132 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: registering as Democrats. It's very easy to tell. Wisconsin doesn't 133 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 1: have that. So the best we have is you basically 134 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 1: look at where the heavily Democrat areas are, and that's 135 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: Dane County and that's Milwaukee County. Generally speaking, end of 136 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 1: list Republicans compete in seventy counties. Democrats only really need 137 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 1: to compete in two to win statewide. They just maximize 138 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: their votes. Well, there are a number of different people 139 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: doing analysis of this on X I apologize I don't 140 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 1: have the actual handles up here, but the people are 141 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 1: doing this are finding that a much higher percentage of 142 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 1: the in person early votes are coming from Dane County 143 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: and Milwaukee County this election cycle than they were in 144 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. Obviously, that's bad news for the conservative 145 00:08:55,800 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 1: candidate Lazaar, because you want to have a smaller percentage. Now, 146 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 1: is it possible, Is it possible that you're going to 147 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: see a much closer race than Brad Schimmels lost to 148 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 1: Susan Crawford because there were. 149 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 2: Just so many people voting. 150 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 1: Did you realize total spending in that Supreme Court race 151 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 1: last year topped one hundred million dollars. It was by 152 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 1: far the most expensive judicial election in the history of 153 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:29,319 Speaker 1: this country in Wisconsin, a mid sized state. Now, obviously 154 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 1: it is considered the ultimate swing state, and control of 155 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:36,439 Speaker 1: the court was seen as paramount ahead of this twenty 156 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 1: twenty six mid term election cycle because the race was 157 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 1: effectively nationalized around the issue of Susan Crawford's corrupt promise 158 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 1: which now we are seeing appears to be coming true 159 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: to radical liberal groups to get on the court and 160 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 1: then immediately accept a challenge to Wisconsin's congressional map so 161 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: that two Republican seats currently held by Brian Style and 162 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,960 Speaker 1: Derek Van Ordon can be jerrymandered sufficiently so that Democrats 163 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 1: would be guaranteed to win those two. 164 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 2: You remember we reported on this. 165 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 1: We were harping on this, and ultimately I think our reporting. 166 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: I sent a tweet on this that got something like 167 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: ten to fifteen thousand retweets. It clearly caught the attention 168 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 1: of Elon Musk, who jumped into this race. And I said, look, 169 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 1: the title of the web meeting that Susan Crawford attended 170 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: was chance to put two seats in play for Democrats 171 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty six. The obvious implication is, get this 172 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 1: liberal hack on the court. She is going to overturn 173 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 1: Wisconsin's congressional map, just as the last liberal hack we 174 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: put on the court, Janet proto se Whiz, overturned the 175 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,679 Speaker 1: state legislative map, jerry mandered it for Democrats, and what 176 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: do you know, they immediately won ten Assembly seats and 177 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: four Senate seats and now seemed to be on the 178 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: precipice of retaking control of the state legislature this November. 179 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:03,839 Speaker 1: There is no similar stake nationally here in twenty twenty six. 180 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:08,719 Speaker 1: In fact, most people have no idea who the candidates 181 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 1: even are. Latest Marquete University Law School poll shows that 182 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 1: while Lazaarre is trailing by eight percent. In this race, 183 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: there are a whopping forty six percent of voters who 184 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,200 Speaker 1: have still not yet made up their minds. In fact, 185 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 1: this Urban Milwaukee dot Com article actually cites the fact 186 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 1: that just twelve percent of people in this poll said 187 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: that they heard a lot about the Supreme Court. 188 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 2: Race last year. Forty percent. 189 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 1: That's an astronomical total for a state supreme court race 190 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 1: for a spring election. Typically, they just don't get the 191 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 1: level of attention that a presidential race, a gubernatorial race, 192 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 1: any other race does well that one did, this one 193 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 1: doesn't now because where the early vote total is coming from. 194 00:11:56,320 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 1: Because a sizeable percentage, a bigger percentage is coming from Milwaukee, 195 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 1: and it's coming from Dane County. You can probably presume 196 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: that that is not good for Lizaar because Dane County 197 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 1: is just a vote turnout machine. 198 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:14,439 Speaker 2: The city of Madison. 199 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:18,840 Speaker 1: Has just perfected getting ballots in the hands of every 200 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 1: single human being in the city and then getting those 201 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: ballots returned. They do a phenomenal job of turning out 202 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 1: every single vote. Milwaukee County has lagged a little bit. 203 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 1: They're not nearly the vote machine for Democrats that they 204 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:41,199 Speaker 1: were in previous elections. Now they still are turning out 205 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:44,719 Speaker 1: the single most Democrat votes in the state, but now 206 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 1: it's getting close. Madison, even though in terms of population 207 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:54,960 Speaker 1: size is much smaller than Milwaukee County city of Madison 208 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 1: much smaller than the city of Milwaukee, although it's gaining 209 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 1: Dane County much smaller than Milwaukee. Because of the sheer 210 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 1: volume of voters that Dane County is able to turn out, 211 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: it is now by far the most important county for 212 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,839 Speaker 1: Democrat turnout. Believe it or not, Milwaukee County, just because 213 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:17,680 Speaker 1: it is so massive, is still the number one source 214 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,680 Speaker 1: of Republican votes as well as Democrat votes. So yes, 215 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:25,960 Speaker 1: it is entirely possible that because Milwaukee County has a 216 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 1: higher percentage of votes relative to the total number of 217 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:34,560 Speaker 1: in person early votes that have already been cast as 218 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 1: compared with last year, it's certainly possible that a lot 219 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:43,199 Speaker 1: of these might be Maria Lazar voters. But the reality 220 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 1: is is that they're almost certain to be overwhelmingly liberal 221 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 1: Democrat votes, and the early vote totals have got to 222 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 1: make Chrissy Taylor feel very happy and another reason, unfortunately 223 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: that it does appear that at this race is probably 224 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 1: tilting towards Chris Taylor is in fundraising. New fundraising totals 225 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 1: released just today. We are going to break those down 226 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 1: and explain exactly what they mean because there is a 227 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 1: massive discrepancy and as you could imagine, it is not 228 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: going the conservative candidates way. 229 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 2: You are listening to the Dan o'donald Show. 230 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 1: It is conservative thought, not just talk, and it is 231 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 1: coming back in just a couple of minutes. Welcome back 232 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: to is the Dan o'donald Show. As we are now 233 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: just one week away from the spring election. If you 234 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 1: are heading out to early vote today, be sure to 235 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 1: take the Ultimate Conservative voter Guide with you. It is 236 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 1: a project that was months in the making at our 237 00:14:56,120 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: brand new media venture, the Heartland Post. Heartland Post dot 238 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 1: com is where you can find the Ultimate Conservative voter Guide. 239 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 1: It is a list of hundreds and hundreds and hundreds 240 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 1: of names all across the state in municipal races, school 241 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 1: board races, county races, those nonpartisan races that you might 242 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: not know who the candidates are who align with your values. 243 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 1: At the Heartland Post and here at The Dan O'Donnell Show, 244 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 1: for years, we thought that one of the biggest barriers 245 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 1: to conservative turnout in the spring elections was the fact 246 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 1: that a lot of people just didn't know who it 247 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,720 Speaker 1: was that was on their ballot, and they didn't want 248 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 1: to The last thing they wanted to do was to 249 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 1: vote for a lip because they just had no idea 250 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: and were kind of flying blind ideologically, and maybe they 251 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 1: saw a couple of yard signs. Now normally, folks, just 252 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: as a quick aside. I am not a big believer 253 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 1: in the power of the yard sign to actually change 254 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 1: people's minds or to get people voting. There is a 255 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 1: big exception in municipal races, in school board races. In 256 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 1: these smaller races, yard signs actually do have a huge impact. 257 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 1: If I am a candidate, I am spending one on 258 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: door knocking doors. I am completely convinced win elections. You 259 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 1: get out there in your community every single weekend you 260 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 1: are knocking on doors. You're getting to know people, You're 261 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 1: leveraging personal contacts that you have in your community. You're 262 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 1: getting other people who might be popular in your community 263 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: to knock doors on your behalf Number two, I am 264 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: spending money on yard signs. It is a visible sign 265 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 1: to everybody, Okay, it just kind of gets in their 266 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 1: heads who it is that is running, and it's just 267 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 1: kind of name recognition. Does this make a hill of 268 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: bean's difference if you've got a Kamala Harris yard sign. No, 269 00:16:56,560 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: everybody knows Kamala Harris. Everybody knew Donald Trump ahead of 270 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty four presidential election this fall. Everybody is 271 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 1: going to know Tom Tiffany. Everybody is going to know 272 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 1: Francesca Honk. Please please please, Dems, let the nominee be 273 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:16,400 Speaker 1: Francesco Honk, the only candidate who might actually be crazier 274 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 1: than Mandela Barnes, who, remember yesterday we reported exclusively said 275 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: at a recent event, he wants this sentence convicts. He 276 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 1: wants the sentence criminals not to prison but to college 277 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: or tech school. Seriously, we have got that up on 278 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 1: social media at Dan O'Donnell's show on X on Facebook, 279 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: on Instagram. Also got a big write up on it 280 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: at the Heartland Post. So the bottom line, take the 281 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: ultimate Conservative voter Guide with you. It is available at 282 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 1: Heartlandpost dot com. That's heart as in iHeartRadio.

That's compared 296 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 1: with just fifty three thousand that have apparently been cast statewide. 297 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: So that's actually we're doing very well as a percentage 298 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 1: of Dan o'donald's show listeners as compared with the total 299 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 1: number of in person absentee votes that have come in. 300 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,200 Speaker 1: So keep those texts coming.

Add two more to er drive. Thank 306 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: you very much sir or ma'am. It's not signed. I 307 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 1: have no idea where that is coming from, but yeah, 308 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 1: text me four one four seven nine to nine eleven 309 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 1: thirty on our advetnos dot com, talk and text line. 310 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:37,680 Speaker 1: Get yourself logged in the state's largest early vote drive. 311 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:44,360 Speaker 1: Fundraising totals just released today paint a similar picture as 312 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:48,440 Speaker 1: early vote totals, which we reported in the opening segment 313 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:53,399 Speaker 1: of this show, are really skewing towards Chris Taylor fundraising 314 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 1: as well. Taylor reported raising two point one million dollars 315 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:05,160 Speaker 1: the most recent campaign finance reporting period that runs February 316 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 1: third to March twenty third. By contrast, Judge Maril Azar 317 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 1: reported raising just four hundred and seventy four thousand dollars. 318 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 1: So you have got a substantial, substantial money advantage. You 319 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 1: have got a nearly five times advantage for money raised 320 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:31,439 Speaker 1: by Chris Taylor. 321 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 2: Now. 322 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 1: Biggest donors, as you might imagine, to Chris Taylor seven 323 00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 1: hundred thousand bucks from the Democrat Party of Wisconsin. Marielizar 324 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:44,880 Speaker 1: got just a sixty thousand dollars transfer from the state GOP. 325 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 1: This latest filing covers the most recent pre election reporting 326 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 1: window ahead of the April seventh contest. 327 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,399 Speaker 2: The Bay. This from the Heartland Post. 328 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 1: Campaign finance records further show Wisconsin Democrat Party raising two 329 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 1: point seven million dollars from January first through March twenty third, 330 00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:13,919 Speaker 1: after expenditures. After that transfer to Taylor and other transfers, 331 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: they have one point three million dollars in cash on 332 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 1: hand state. Republican Party, though, has raised just two hundred 333 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 1: and thirty nine thousand dollars in that period because they 334 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 1: had a whole ton of money left over, the cash 335 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 1: on hand advantage is not nearly as great as you 336 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 1: might think. They have nine hundred and fifty six thousand 337 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,919 Speaker 1: dollars cash on hand compared to one point three million 338 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 1: dollars for the Republicans. Once again, we are seeing the 339 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 1: same sort of story being told that Democrats are just 340 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:55,440 Speaker 1: dramatically outraising Republicans and they're outspending Republicans. Now, the Republican 341 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 1: Party is overly dependent on just a couple of big 342 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:04,200 Speaker 1: money donors dickn Liz Eline and Diane Hendrix. They are 343 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:08,160 Speaker 1: by far the biggest funders of the Republican Party. Now, 344 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 1: lest you believe that Democrats, oh they're the party of 345 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 1: the people, that they're getting all the small dollar donations, 346 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: and Democrats are just Republicans are just dependent on those billionaires. 347 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 2: No. 348 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:23,640 Speaker 1: No, Democrats just have a much more extensive nationwide network 349 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 1: of billionaires, including reed Hoffman, who apparently was on the 350 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:32,639 Speaker 1: Lolita Express with Jeffrey Epstein so often he could get 351 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 1: frequent Flyer miles. This guy didn't just go to Epstein Island. 352 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:41,359 Speaker 1: He went to Epstein's ranch in New Mexico that nobody 353 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 1: knew Epstein had. He was having sleepovers that reed Hoffman 354 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 1: is the founder of LinkedIn. He is also the single 355 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 1: biggest donor to the Democrat Party of Wisconsin over the 356 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 1: past decade, since I believe twenty nineteen, he's given fifteen 357 00:22:55,680 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 1: million dollars in dirty Jeffrey Epstein donations to Wisconsin and Democrats, 358 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 1: who of course have said absolutely nothing. They screech and 359 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 1: scream about President Trump supposedly protecting pedophiles or maybe even 360 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: being a pedophile himself, while ignoring the giant plank in 361 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 1: their eye that is their single biggest out of state 362 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 1: billionaire donor, being one of Jeffrey Epstein's b f f's. Now, 363 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 1: Democrats have long been the beneficiaries of out of state 364 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:37,160 Speaker 1: billionaire spending and a big reason for the discrepancy between 365 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 1: the party and candidates spending, Like the Democrat Party in 366 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:45,920 Speaker 1: large measure has much more money that it raises because 367 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 1: these out of state billionaires, they're not stupid. They are 368 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 1: very savvy political donors. We have something that's been sort 369 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:59,119 Speaker 1: of known colloquially as the Scott Walker loophole. During Walker's governorship, 370 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 1: they change the rules the legislature, and Walker changed the 371 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 1: rules so that they could have unlimited donations come in 372 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:11,920 Speaker 1: to the state party. The state party then could make 373 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,399 Speaker 1: unlimited donations or county parties too. If you want to 374 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 1: donate to, say the Waukeshaw GOP, great job Terry Dietrich 375 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 1: is doing. Wis read partnered with us on the Ultimate 376 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 1: Conservative Voter Guide. You want to give a million dollars 377 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 1: to the Waukeshaw County GOP, The Waukeshaw County GOP can 378 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,919 Speaker 1: turn around and give as much money as it wants 379 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: to mariel Azar or any school board candidate or whomever 380 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 1: it wants to donate that money too. You just can't 381 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,919 Speaker 1: earmark donation. Say okay, I'm giving you Waukeshaw County GOP 382 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,280 Speaker 1: a million bucks. And I want you to give all 383 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 1: one million dollars to Mariel Asr. That's illegal, but you can. 384 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 1: You can give unlimited money what the Democratic Party has 385 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:57,199 Speaker 1: been brilliant at. And I'll give credit where credit is 386 00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:00,080 Speaker 1: due to Ben Wickler, the former chair. They've got a 387 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:04,640 Speaker 1: buffoon who is just not nearly as good as Wickler 388 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 1: was at fundraising as their chair. 389 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 2: Now. 390 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:09,159 Speaker 1: His name is Devin Remicker and basically the only thing 391 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 1: he seems to do is to exist as a Twitter 392 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 1: troll instead of fundraising like Wickler did. I mean, Wickler 393 00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: raised millions and millions of dollars because he was able 394 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 1: to convince the perverted billionaires of Silicon Valley to donate 395 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:30,919 Speaker 1: unlimited amounts of money to Wisconsin. He would go to 396 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:34,119 Speaker 1: them and say, look, your money is not going to 397 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:38,880 Speaker 1: do anything in California because it's gonna go Democrat. But 398 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: what if you could impact the ultimate swing state. If 399 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:46,679 Speaker 1: we could install judges in the ultimate swing state, who 400 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 1: would gerry mannder the maps so that the Wisconsin legislature 401 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 1: would flip to Democrats. We could get a couple of 402 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 1: extra seats in Congress, and then and then once we 403 00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 1: get those extra seats in Congress. Democrats take over the 404 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 1: representatives in twenty twenty six, and they impeach Trump five 405 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:06,479 Speaker 1: or six more times ahead of the twenty twenty eight 406 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 1: presidential election just to harm his administration and presumed Republican 407 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 1: nominee Jdvans. 408 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 2: That's exactly what they did. 409 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 1: Republicans, though, and I have been very critical of the chairman, 410 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:24,359 Speaker 1: Brian Shimming and his staff for not playing the same 411 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 1: game now everything I hear. And we had Shimming on 412 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,879 Speaker 1: a while back and he said, look the reason for this, 413 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,360 Speaker 1: and it is a big reason. It is true that 414 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 1: Republican donors typically give to candidates themselves. Well, because of 415 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 1: the Walker loophole, you can't give unlimited amounts of money. 416 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 1: Sure you can do pack spending on behalf of a candidate, 417 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 1: but if you really want your money to get the 418 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,560 Speaker 1: most bang for its buck, you need to be donating 419 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: to the state party. And the message has to be 420 00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,919 Speaker 1: out there. Look, if you want to win these races, 421 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 1: if you want to take control back of the Wisconsin 422 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 1: Supreme Court, you have got to take advantage of the 423 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 1: party spending loophole, and Republicans just haven't. And ever since 424 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 1: twenty twenty there has been a massive advantage for Democrats. 425 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 1: You'll notice You'll notice that Chrissy Taylor, who was one 426 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: of the biggest advocates for repealing the Supreme Court's decision 427 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: in Citizens United always when she was in the legislature 428 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 1: squealing about the corrupting influence of money in politics. She 429 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 1: and her fellow Democrats have been remarkably silent about the 430 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:43,439 Speaker 1: corrupting influence of money over the past decade, now that 431 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 1: they are the ones with all the tech pro billionaires. 432 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 1: In case you're wondering why, all of a sudden the 433 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 1: money advantage has flipped from Republicans to Democrats, it's because 434 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:55,200 Speaker 1: of the rise of the tech pro and it's because 435 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:59,880 Speaker 1: Democrats have made it fundamentally impossible for any Republican who 436 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 1: who owns a public facing business to donate to Republican 437 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:08,120 Speaker 1: candidates or causes, because they'll just boycott. They'll, honest to goodness, 438 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:12,359 Speaker 1: organized nationwide boy if Walmart or any of the Waltons 439 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:17,160 Speaker 1: dares to donate to a Republican presidential candidate, let alone 440 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 1: the Hitler incarnate Donald Trump, there will be boycotts of 441 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 1: Walmart so you don't see those public facing businesses. This 442 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 1: I think is a big reason. John Manard of the 443 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,520 Speaker 1: Minard stores, he's a huge Republican, I mean, a big 444 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,679 Speaker 1: conservative from what I hear, a great guy, but he 445 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 1: does not donate to a lot of candidates because he 446 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 1: knows his stores, his business, his livelihood would be absolutely 447 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:51,720 Speaker 1: decimated by the unhinged lefties. Now what that does though, 448 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 1: the spending advantage in a race like this where there 449 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 1: just isn't that amount of interest naturally because control of 450 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 1: the is not at stake, you really get the conservative 451 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 1: candidate in a bind because she just is not able 452 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 1: to get her message out there, whereas you're able to 453 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 1: get Chrissy Taylor's message pretty much everywhere. And while I'm 454 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 1: not going to say it's been ubiquitous on television or 455 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:23,800 Speaker 1: in print or in digital, you do see probably five 456 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,720 Speaker 1: to ten times more Chris Taylor ads than you do 457 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 1: in Maria Lazar. Because there isn't a whole lot of 458 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 1: coverage of this race, you don't get a lot of 459 00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 1: what's known as earned media. Say Lazarre does an interview 460 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 1: on the Dan O'Donnell show or something like that. That's 461 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 1: called earned media because it's not paid for. We decided, Hey, 462 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 1: Marie Lazar, is worth talking to. Let's talk to her. 463 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: You need to get your message out there. You need 464 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 1: to get awareness of who you are as a candidate 465 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 1: out there, and you need to do so by virtue 466 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 1: of spending money. And unfortunately for Lazarre, she just hasn't 467 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 1: really been able to do that. Time to step aside 468 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:04,600 Speaker 1: for a break, way late, for a break in fact, Hey, 469 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 1: this is a fascinating discussion into what really goes into 470 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 1: these races, really kind of the nuts and bolts of 471 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 1: politics here, and we will get back into it much 472 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 1: more coming up in just a second, when The Dan 473 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 1: o'donald Show returns a tour de force of truth. It 474 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 1: is the Dan o'donald Show. Welcome back to it. We 475 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 1: are now one week away from the State Supreme Court race. 476 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 2: And while it does not control. 477 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 1: The ideological balance of the court, it is important to 478 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: note that if Marilizar loses this election, Conservatives will be 479 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:48,480 Speaker 1: down five to two, and one of those two will 480 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 1: be Brian Hagadorn, who I have been referring to as 481 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 1: alleged Conservative Brian Hagadorn because let's just say, on pretty 482 00:30:56,760 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 1: much every major case he's had a tendency to vote 483 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 1: the right way. He has sided with liberals on any 484 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: number of important cases, many of which he was just 485 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 1: fundamentally wrong about the law. He will be the only 486 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 1: conservative alongside a Net Ziegler, the former Chief Justice, who 487 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 1: has already announced that she's not going to run for 488 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: reelection next year. In twenty twenty seven, if the Ziegler 489 00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 1: seat is lost as well, let's say Marial Azaar loses 490 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 1: next week, the Court's majority goes to six to one 491 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 1: for the liberals, or excuse me, five to two for 492 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 1: the liberals if the Ziegler seat is lost. If a 493 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 1: leftist candidate wins the Ziegler seat, then guess what it 494 00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 1: goes to five to one. In twenty twenty nine. Brian 495 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 1: Hagadorn is up for reelection. It's unclear whether he's going 496 00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:58,680 Speaker 1: to run again, although if he's the lone conservative on 497 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 1: the court, very good chance. He sort of sees which 498 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 1: way the political wins are blowing, especially if, and this 499 00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:09,080 Speaker 1: is critical, if jd Vance wins the presidency, which is 500 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 1: looking at least reasonably likely. I know liberals are already said, well, 501 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 1: we're gonna win everything to reason to win in twenty 502 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 1: twenty six, We're gonna win the legislation, We're gonna win 503 00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 1: the governorship, and then that momentum is going to carry 504 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 1: on to twenty twenty eight. They still Ram Emanuel actually 505 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 1: said today the only thing standing in the way of 506 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 1: Democrats winning in twenty twenty eight is Democrats behaving like Democrats. 507 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 1: In other words, all they have to do is just 508 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 1: be normal, and they can't do it. They fundamentally cannot 509 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 1: do it. They cannot be normal. And the presumptive candidate 510 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 1: for Democrats is going to be Gavin Newsome, and he's 511 00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 1: got to run defending California and the disaster that his 512 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 1: left wing policies has wrought. But if that happens, if jd. 513 00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 1: Vance wins, the next election will be just a couple 514 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 1: of months later. Imagine how ticked off Democrats and Lib 515 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:07,280 Speaker 1: voters are going to be. They're going to turn out 516 00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 1: in huge droves, just like they did in twenty twenty five. 517 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 1: The first election that spring election for Supreme Court, which 518 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 1: which controlled the was for control of the ideological balance 519 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:22,320 Speaker 1: of the Court. They were so angry about Donald Trump's 520 00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:26,080 Speaker 1: win they didn't even bother running against the conservative candidate 521 00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 1: Brad Schimmel. They nationalized that race and they capitalized on 522 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 1: left wing of voter outrage that Elon Musk was running 523 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,680 Speaker 1: doge and was daring to look into waste, fraud and 524 00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 1: abuse within the federal government. How dare he remember, by 525 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:46,000 Speaker 1: the way, how insane left is to where they said 526 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 1: Elon Musk was going to look he was going to 527 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 1: be able to see your social Security numbers, so he 528 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 1: would be able to steal your social Security number. How 529 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 1: gullible are lib boomers. He's the richest man in the world. 530 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 1: He's going to be worth a trillion dollars by some 531 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:04,920 Speaker 1: time next year. He does not need your two thousand 532 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:11,880 Speaker 1: dollars monthly Social Security check Grammy. But Libs nonetheless were 533 00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:15,799 Speaker 1: able to convince their voters that Musk was going to 534 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:20,840 Speaker 1: steal all their money. Similarly, I am convinced that liberal 535 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 1: turnout is being driven by liberal ignorance. This year, Wisconsin's 536 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:31,719 Speaker 1: chief polling expert, Charles franklin Over at the Marquette University 537 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:37,319 Speaker 1: Law School, found that there is a huge Democrats advantage 538 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 1: in in engagement seventy seven percent ahead of this spring election. 539 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:46,400 Speaker 1: Among Democrats, seventy seven percent say they're certain to vote. 540 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,799 Speaker 1: Fifty nine percent of Republicans, fifty three percent of Independents 541 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:53,239 Speaker 1: say the same thing. Fifty one percent of Democrats say 542 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:57,440 Speaker 1: they're very enthusiastic about voting, compared to thirty two percent 543 00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:02,279 Speaker 1: of Republicans nineteen percent of independence Why. I am convinced 544 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:07,360 Speaker 1: it's because from the same marquete pool, seventy five percent 545 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:11,439 Speaker 1: of registered voters incorrectly believe that this election can tip 546 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 1: the ideological balance on the Wisconsin Supreme Court. I am 547 00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 1: convinced a far greater number of liberals are ignorant and 548 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:24,720 Speaker 1: believe that this race isn't going is going to tip 549 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:28,760 Speaker 1: the ideological balance of the court, that liberals can retake 550 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:31,040 Speaker 1: control of the Court that they don't already have it. 551 00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:37,239 Speaker 1: Conservatives believe that liberals already have control of the Court, 552 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 1: and if Lazarre loses, that could very well lead to 553 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 1: a seven nothing liberal majority by the time the left 554 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 1: has to defend another Supreme Court seat. That would be 555 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 1: Joe Kurowski's seat in twenty thirty. If Lazar loses on Tuesday, 556 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 1: five to two majority, if the Ziegler seat is lost six, 557 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:05,840 Speaker 1: if the Haggadorn seat is lost, seven nothing, unanimous Liberal 558 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:09,279 Speaker 1: control over the Wisconsin Supreme Court before liberals have to 559 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 1: defend a single seat on the Court. It's hard to believe, 560 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:19,279 Speaker 1: but it is absolutely true. Get out there vote for 561 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:23,560 Speaker 1: Marial Azar. It's not going to change the ideological balance 562 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:28,280 Speaker 1: of the Court today, but it could save the court 563 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,680 Speaker 1: for generations to come, so that we don't have to 564 00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:35,280 Speaker 1: dig ourselves out of a seven nothing hole. By twenty 565 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:38,040 Speaker 1: twenty nine, you're listening to the Dano donald Show. We 566 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,960 Speaker 1: name the unhinged Liberal of the day.

It is the very latest on Operation Epic 569 00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:53,680 Speaker 1: Fury and all the goings on at the President Trump 570 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,400 Speaker 1: White House. It is your daily Trump date that is 571 00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:00,400 Speaker 1: coming up right after the top of the hour here 572 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:02,840 Speaker 1: on the Dan o'donald Show. Right now, though, it is 573 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:14,360 Speaker 1: time to name the unhinged liberal of the day. 574 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:22,400 Speaker 2: Truff is dangerous because he's evil America. 575 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:27,440 Speaker 1: If this might be a first here on the Dan 576 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:32,560 Speaker 1: o'donald's show, a professional sports franchise your unhinged liberal of 577 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:37,319 Speaker 1: the day. It is the Chicago Bulls. The Bulls have 578 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:42,239 Speaker 1: waived guard Jaden Ivy after he spoke out against the 579 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 1: NBA for promoting Pride Month, and unrighteousness. ESPN reporting that 580 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:52,359 Speaker 1: Ivy reported a number of videos to post to social media. 581 00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:57,040 Speaker 1: Is literally just sitting in his car talking about how 582 00:37:57,200 --> 00:38:02,800 Speaker 1: he is alive in Christ and he believes that proclaiming 583 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:08,880 Speaker 1: the support for gay Pride Month by the NBA is sinful. 584 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:11,480 Speaker 1: He said, they proclaim Pride Month in the NBA, They 585 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:13,480 Speaker 1: show it to the world, they say, come join us 586 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:17,319 Speaker 1: for Pride Month, to celebrate unrighteousness. They proclaim it on 587 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:20,400 Speaker 1: the billboards, they proclaim it in the streets, unrighteousness. 588 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:22,319 Speaker 2: He was waived for that. 589 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 1: Now you might suggest that, well, maybe he was waived 590 00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:30,040 Speaker 1: because he just wasn't a very good basketball player and 591 00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:32,840 Speaker 1: he didn't fit in the Bulls playing rotation or something 592 00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 1: like that. Nope, absolutely not the official listing for why 593 00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 1: he was laved, why he was waived conduct detrimental to 594 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:47,160 Speaker 1: the team. The Bulls actually did confirm that he was 595 00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 1: waived specifically because of those comments. Never mind the fact 596 00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:58,480 Speaker 1: that Steve Kerr, the head coach of the Golden State Warriors, 597 00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:03,680 Speaker 1: can turn postgame press conferences into his own personal political 598 00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:07,920 Speaker 1: forum where he blasts Donald Trump and falsely accused Ice 599 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:12,759 Speaker 1: agents of killing people in cold blood without any justification 600 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:17,240 Speaker 1: following the deaths of Alex Pretty and Renee Good in Minneapolis. 601 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:19,799 Speaker 1: He can say whatever he wants about Donald Trump being 602 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 1: a tyrant. He gets to anything like that. Jaden Ivy said, 603 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:29,600 Speaker 1: a belief that is absolutely valid amongst the what one 604 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:33,640 Speaker 1: billion Christians in this world. But because it didn't go 605 00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:41,040 Speaker 1: along with the LGBTQ plus minus dollar sign ampersand percentage 606 00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:47,560 Speaker 1: sign agenda, he gets waived for it. Give me a break, 607 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 1: the Chicago bulls, your unhinged liberals. 608 00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:54,040 Speaker 2: Of the day. 609 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,719 Speaker 1: When we come back here on the Dan o'donald's show. Hey, 610 00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:04,040 Speaker 1: speaking of the lgb ETQ plus minus ampersand community, today 611 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:06,279 Speaker 1: is the trans Day of Visibility. 612 00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:07,959 Speaker 2: Would you believe it is one of. 613 00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:11,839 Speaker 1: Just one hundred fifty of three hundred and sixty five 614 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 1: days in a given year that is dedicated to the 615 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:19,520 Speaker 1: gay pride community. That's forty one percent of the entire year. 616 00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:23,560 Speaker 1: We have some fun breaking down all of the various 617 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:27,759 Speaker 1: gay days, weeks, and months of the year coming up 618 00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:31,120 Speaker 1: follow our plus the daily Trump Day is also coming 619 00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 1: up here on the Dan o'donald Show. 620 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:33,839 Speaker 2: Stay tuned, we'll be right back. 621 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 1: Four o'clock hour starts right now here on the Dan 622 00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:44,080 Speaker 1: o'donald show. Welcome back to it a reminder you want 623 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 1: to get yourself listed and count it in the state's 624 00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:51,799 Speaker 1: largest early vote drive. All you need to do is 625 00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:54,279 Speaker 1: to send me a text four one, four seven, nine 626 00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:58,399 Speaker 1: nine eleven thirty. That is our avetnos dot com talk 627 00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:03,040 Speaker 1: and text line. So we have two thousand, one hundred 628 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:07,520 Speaker 1: and sixty six early votes logged, and boy, I thought, 629 00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 1: you know, folks, I said, that's kind of a small total. 630 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:13,040 Speaker 1: Then I saw that there were a total of fifty 631 00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:17,040 Speaker 1: three thousand early votes cast across the state. We are 632 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:20,960 Speaker 1: responsible for two thousand, one hundred of those. I'm actually 633 00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:24,080 Speaker 1: feeling good. Look, we're not going to top the just 634 00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:30,080 Speaker 1: astronomical totals. I think we hit fifteen thousand if memory serves, 635 00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:33,760 Speaker 1: in the twenty twenty four election, and I'm fairly certain 636 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:37,719 Speaker 1: we hit ten or eleven thousand last year in the 637 00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:40,759 Speaker 1: state's largest early vote drive. We're probably going to top 638 00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 1: out somewhere at around four to five thousand. That's just 639 00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:46,279 Speaker 1: a function of the fact that turnout is going to 640 00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:51,919 Speaker 1: be so much smaller than it was just a year ago, 641 00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:55,440 Speaker 1: when ideological control of the court was at stake. I 642 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:58,319 Speaker 1: do want to give credit where credit is due. I 643 00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:03,720 Speaker 1: did find the name of the person who on social 644 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 1: media has been tweeting out all of all of the 645 00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:13,200 Speaker 1: early vote totals. He is the editor and founder of 646 00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:20,560 Speaker 1: Boltz Magazine. His name is Daniel Nickannion Nickanyan. I apologize 647 00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:23,200 Speaker 1: for him if I'm butchering that name. I'm going to 648 00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:26,920 Speaker 1: take a wild guess based on his x account that 649 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:29,560 Speaker 1: he is a liberal, since he has a link right 650 00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:34,200 Speaker 1: there in his bio to his Blue Sky account. I 651 00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:37,080 Speaker 1: don't know a single conservative who is on Blue Sky. 652 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:40,399 Speaker 1: Earnestly a number of them, A number of you did 653 00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:42,920 Speaker 1: set up blue Sky accounts just to kind of monitor 654 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:45,319 Speaker 1: how insane the people there put But Daniel is doing 655 00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:50,520 Speaker 1: just amazing work in logging the early votes, and a 656 00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:54,360 Speaker 1: couple of hours ago he put out his Tuesday update 657 00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:59,360 Speaker 1: Wisconsin turnout seven days out, one hundred and eighty nine 658 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:04,640 Speaker 1: thousand people have already voted. That compares to three hundred 659 00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:09,200 Speaker 1: forty five thousand at an equivalent time in twenty twenty five. 660 00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:13,840 Speaker 1: Thirty one point two percent of the ballots cast so 661 00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:18,160 Speaker 1: far are in Dane and Milwaukee Counties. Thirty one point 662 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:21,480 Speaker 1: five percent or from Dane in Milwaukee Counties at an 663 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:26,240 Speaker 1: equivalent time in twenty twenty five, eighteen point three percent 664 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:30,120 Speaker 1: of the votes are in conservative Wow counties. That's waukeshaw, 665 00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:35,400 Speaker 1: Ozaki and Washington Counties nineteen point eight percent at an 666 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:39,400 Speaker 1: equivalent time in twenty twenty five. So while Dane and 667 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:45,239 Speaker 1: Milwaukee Counties very heavily Democrat counties are voting at similar 668 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:49,480 Speaker 1: paces a similar clip than they were last year, we 669 00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:52,920 Speaker 1: are seeing a bit of a decline in the Wow counties, 670 00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:57,319 Speaker 1: which are typically some of the biggest areas for conservative 671 00:43:57,400 --> 00:44:00,560 Speaker 1: votes in the state. Although, as I said yes yesterday 672 00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:04,120 Speaker 1: in sort of an extended segment, almost an impromptu segment 673 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:08,200 Speaker 1: based on something our friend Dave Spono told me about 674 00:44:08,200 --> 00:44:13,600 Speaker 1: how voter demographics have just fundamentally changed. The calculus is 675 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:17,319 Speaker 1: no longer for Republicans running up the score in the 676 00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:20,399 Speaker 1: Waw counties because the Wow counties are nowhere near as 677 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:23,719 Speaker 1: conservative as they used to be. And there's there's a 678 00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:25,719 Speaker 1: number of reasons for that. I believe the biggest one 679 00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:30,880 Speaker 1: is voters in Wisconsin. You've got the Scott Walker, Tommy 680 00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:37,080 Speaker 1: Thompson coalition, baby boomers, the generation before they are retired 681 00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:41,839 Speaker 1: and they're moving down to Florida and they're becoming Florida residents. Look, 682 00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:45,080 Speaker 1: you're seeing the state that's growing by leaps and bounds 683 00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:46,280 Speaker 1: more than anyone else is Florida. 684 00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:47,680 Speaker 2: Florida is going to get. 685 00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:53,359 Speaker 1: Very likely four more congressmen in the twenty thirty redistricting. 686 00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:58,600 Speaker 1: Now where are those populations coming from. They're coming from 687 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:04,440 Speaker 1: northern states, Wisconsin. You know, it's it's spring break now, 688 00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:09,640 Speaker 1: and we had a gorgeous seventy five eighty degree yesterday yesterday, 689 00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:12,399 Speaker 1: but you know, as of a couple of days ago, 690 00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:14,600 Speaker 1: there was snow in the forecast for later this weekly. 691 00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:17,440 Speaker 1: What happened two weeks ago, we had one of the 692 00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:20,320 Speaker 1: worst blizzards that this state has had in a long time. 693 00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:25,160 Speaker 1: All the snow melted within four days. It's like sixty degrees. 694 00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:27,960 Speaker 1: I think we had the blizzard on Sunday and into Monday. 695 00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:31,440 Speaker 1: School is canceled. As about two weeks ago, almost exactly, 696 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:33,160 Speaker 1: I think two weeks ago, maybe three weeks ago. 697 00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:35,280 Speaker 2: School gets canceled. 698 00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:37,759 Speaker 1: All the snow is melted within three days, we have 699 00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:40,359 Speaker 1: spring like temperatures, and then a couple of days later 700 00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:43,279 Speaker 1: it's like right back to thirty five. I would much 701 00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:48,200 Speaker 1: rather have eighty five degrees and sunshine every single day. 702 00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:51,759 Speaker 1: So a lot of people are deciding the same. They 703 00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:54,080 Speaker 1: no longer have to stay in Wisconsin, you know, because 704 00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:56,160 Speaker 1: the kids are in school. They you know, kids are 705 00:45:56,160 --> 00:46:00,759 Speaker 1: grown up. And even though there's snowbirds and coming back 706 00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:02,680 Speaker 1: to Wisconsin in the summer, because what we do know 707 00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:06,080 Speaker 1: is Wisconsin summer is just absolutely kick butt. You've got Summerfest, 708 00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:10,080 Speaker 1: you've got State Fair, you have got Fourth of July celebrations, 709 00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:13,240 Speaker 1: you've got an ethnic festival pretty much every weekend in Milwaukee. 710 00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:15,440 Speaker 1: She's say's just said, the weather is gorgeous, it's not 711 00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:18,960 Speaker 1: too hot, it's it's always sunny. We don't get a 712 00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:21,080 Speaker 1: whole ton of range. Summer is just awesome. So people 713 00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:25,160 Speaker 1: are coming back. But because Florida has no state income tax, 714 00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:29,759 Speaker 1: you'd be stupid to remain a Wisconsin resident if you're 715 00:46:29,800 --> 00:46:32,160 Speaker 1: going to be in Florida for half the year. So 716 00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:34,680 Speaker 1: that's a big reason people are leaving. You also have 717 00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:40,440 Speaker 1: liberal creep. You have leftists who are just moving westward 718 00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:44,839 Speaker 1: like it's manifest destiny, and they're going from Milwaukee, which 719 00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:47,879 Speaker 1: they ruined with horrible liberal policies, and then they moved 720 00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:52,319 Speaker 1: to Wahwatosa, ruin that with horrible liberal policies, and now 721 00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:55,799 Speaker 1: they're dead set on ruining Brookfield, and they're moving into 722 00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:59,359 Speaker 1: Waukeshaw County, whereas Conservatives are either moving out of state 723 00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:04,880 Speaker 1: and retire or they're moving farther west themselves. So you 724 00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:10,319 Speaker 1: do have a significant amount of liberal creep. You have 725 00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:14,120 Speaker 1: a significant amount of vote erosion, and that poses a 726 00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:18,440 Speaker 1: significant challenge because now the onus is on conservatives, the 727 00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:21,480 Speaker 1: onus is on Maril Azar and the Republican Party to 728 00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:27,000 Speaker 1: turn out the vote. In let's face it areas that 729 00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:32,000 Speaker 1: are far more difficult to get to, all right. Just 730 00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,480 Speaker 1: wanted to make sure I gave credit because I was citing. 731 00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:39,200 Speaker 1: And I've been watching Daniel mccannyon a Bolt magazine Bolts Magazine. 732 00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:43,040 Speaker 1: I have been watching his analysis of the early vote 733 00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:46,440 Speaker 1: here in Wisconsin. Actually, very very good, very good. I'm 734 00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:49,040 Speaker 1: taking a while. Guess you probably would hate this show 735 00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 1: and hate me personally, but I can say, mister nickannyon, 736 00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:57,399 Speaker 1: I love the work that you are doing. Four one, four, seven, nine, nine, 737 00:47:57,480 --> 00:47:59,839 Speaker 1: eleven thirty.

That's Sally Field. 767 00:49:47,680 --> 00:49:51,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, Sally Field at the Oscars, a fantastic moment years 768 00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:53,759 Speaker 1: and years ago.

The 783 00:50:34,480 --> 00:50:38,960 Speaker 1: visit comes amid ongoing tensions between the US and Great 784 00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:42,839 Speaker 1: Britain and its liberal Prime Minister Keir Starmer over the 785 00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:47,359 Speaker 1: Iran conflict, but the royal family has always been a 786 00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:51,319 Speaker 1: very strong supporter of the President. No specific date for 787 00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:54,360 Speaker 1: the royal visit has been released yet, though it should 788 00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:59,240 Speaker 1: be noted that King Charles has long been a liberal voice, 789 00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:03,839 Speaker 1: although he has once he was named king on once 790 00:51:03,880 --> 00:51:05,000 Speaker 1: he was elevated to. 791 00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:07,239 Speaker 2: What do they call it? Not sworn in? 792 00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:10,239 Speaker 1: Was he dubbed King Charles? Did they put like the 793 00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:14,440 Speaker 1: sword on his shoulder? Not an investiture? It's well when 794 00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:17,120 Speaker 1: the queen, when his mom died, When the queen died, 795 00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:21,279 Speaker 1: he has shut up about politics, as is expected of 796 00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:25,040 Speaker 1: a British monarch. The President meanwhile telling European leaders to 797 00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:27,640 Speaker 1: stop asking the United States to reopen the Strait of 798 00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:31,760 Speaker 1: Horror moves and instead buy American oil on truth social President, 799 00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:34,600 Speaker 1: responding to please from the UK and other nations facing 800 00:51:34,640 --> 00:51:38,600 Speaker 1: fuel shortitches, he said, quote, buy American oil and grow 801 00:51:38,640 --> 00:51:42,319 Speaker 1: a damn spine a met rge allies to secure their 802 00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:45,920 Speaker 1: own energy supplies rather than rely on US military action. 803 00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:49,200 Speaker 1: The comments come as global oil prices have now surged 804 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:52,880 Speaker 1: again above one hundred dollars per barrel. Now, that is 805 00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:56,760 Speaker 1: pushing the price of gas above four dollars a gallon 806 00:51:56,960 --> 00:51:59,960 Speaker 1: in the US. That's one of the biggest one month 807 00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:01,359 Speaker 1: increases in years. 808 00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:01,560 Speaker 2: Now. 809 00:52:01,560 --> 00:52:05,000 Speaker 1: We'll have more in just a second on just how 810 00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:08,200 Speaker 1: silly Democrats are in trying to use this against Trump 811 00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:12,640 Speaker 1: when they presided over five dollars gas for months back 812 00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:15,760 Speaker 1: in the summer of twenty two when they controlled literally 813 00:52:16,040 --> 00:52:20,719 Speaker 1: every lever of power in Washington, d C. Meanwhile, US 814 00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:24,000 Speaker 1: Trade Ambassador Jamison Greer is providing an update on the 815 00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:27,600 Speaker 1: tariff battle with China, telling Bloomberg News Today that both 816 00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:29,680 Speaker 1: nations want stability. 817 00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:33,239 Speaker 3: From our perspective, we're looking for stability we're trying to 818 00:52:33,320 --> 00:52:36,439 Speaker 3: achieve We're trying to get the trade deficit reduced. We're 819 00:52:36,440 --> 00:52:39,680 Speaker 3: trying to increase manufacturing in the United States, and we're 820 00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:42,080 Speaker 3: trying to increase real wages and all of that is happening. 821 00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:44,280 Speaker 3: So we don't see a need to change our policy. 822 00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:47,600 Speaker 3: The Chinese wants stability, We want stability. I actually see 823 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:50,000 Speaker 3: a positive agenda with China going forward, where we learn 824 00:52:50,080 --> 00:52:52,839 Speaker 3: to manage our trade with each other, where we pick 825 00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:54,839 Speaker 3: the kinds of things we want to be selling to 826 00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:58,239 Speaker 3: each other, things that are mostly nonsensitive, to avoid some 827 00:52:58,280 --> 00:53:01,880 Speaker 3: of the national security elements that prove challenging and negotiations. 828 00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:04,799 Speaker 3: I see stability with China over the next year. 829 00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:08,680 Speaker 1: The US and China have been working toward a comprehensive 830 00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:13,200 Speaker 1: trade deal since the start of President Trump's second term. That, 831 00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:18,880 Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, is your daily Trump day. Yes, gas 832 00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:23,320 Speaker 1: prices are incredibly high. I am not going to dispute 833 00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:28,040 Speaker 1: that I still get sticker shock when I go to 834 00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:34,000 Speaker 1: the gas pump. Now that's nothing, however, compared to California 835 00:53:34,200 --> 00:53:37,840 Speaker 1: right now, my brother and sister in law and their family, 836 00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:41,920 Speaker 1: they took a spring break trip down to California and 837 00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:45,480 Speaker 1: they're going on a cruise. They're meeting some friends and 838 00:53:45,560 --> 00:53:47,800 Speaker 1: family and they're going on a cruise. And my sister 839 00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:52,839 Speaker 1: in law just sent a picture. This was yesterday at 840 00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:57,480 Speaker 1: a mobile gas station in I believe the San Diego area. 841 00:53:57,560 --> 00:53:58,560 Speaker 2: Yup there in San Diego. 842 00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:05,960 Speaker 1: Regular gas six sixty nine, a gallon extra gasoline six 843 00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:09,160 Speaker 1: point eighty nine, a gallon Supreme gasoline six ninety nine, 844 00:54:09,239 --> 00:54:15,680 Speaker 1: a gallon diesel number two seven ninety nine, A gallon. 845 00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:22,719 Speaker 1: Now compare that with other areas of the country, like Wisconsin, 846 00:54:22,840 --> 00:54:26,040 Speaker 1: where the price is actually closer to four dollars, and you. 847 00:54:25,960 --> 00:54:30,240 Speaker 2: Will see that maybe. 848 00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:34,400 Speaker 1: Some state policy and taxation has something to do with 849 00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:38,279 Speaker 1: the price of gas. And you might remember that for 850 00:54:38,440 --> 00:54:43,360 Speaker 1: years during the Biden presidency, we were told that presidents 851 00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:46,640 Speaker 1: can do very little to impact the price of gas. 852 00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:49,160 Speaker 2: Remember what we were told. What we were. 853 00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:52,520 Speaker 1: Told in early twenty twenty two when gas prices started spiking, 854 00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:56,320 Speaker 1: that was the Putin price hike. Never mind the fact 855 00:54:56,600 --> 00:55:01,000 Speaker 1: that gas was already sky high in twenty one. It 856 00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:05,319 Speaker 1: wasn't Joe Biden. It wasn't his disastrous energy policy. It 857 00:55:05,400 --> 00:55:07,960 Speaker 1: wasn't Biden inflation. No, no, no, it was the Putin 858 00:55:08,080 --> 00:55:13,560 Speaker 1: price hike. Because Putin invaded Ukraine, gas prices in America 859 00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:19,880 Speaker 1: went up. Uh huh, So how much Russian oil are 860 00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:24,000 Speaker 1: are we buying? Really didn't make a whole lot of sense. 861 00:55:25,680 --> 00:55:30,040 Speaker 1: Neither does democrats pouncing on the issue of high gas prices. 862 00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:33,480 Speaker 1: I mean it does politically, And of course Democrats just 863 00:55:33,680 --> 00:55:39,680 Speaker 1: presume their voters have zero memory and zero background knowledge 864 00:55:39,719 --> 00:55:42,800 Speaker 1: of politics or pretty much anywhere else, and whatever they say, 865 00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:47,799 Speaker 1: their supporters and their voters will just lap it up 866 00:55:48,680 --> 00:55:52,799 Speaker 1: like well, to use President Trump's most common comparison. 867 00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:54,720 Speaker 2: Like dogs. They lap it up like dogs. 868 00:55:56,080 --> 00:55:59,120 Speaker 1: They don't remember, they truly don't remember, or they're they're 869 00:55:59,160 --> 00:56:04,000 Speaker 1: just being disingect and dishonest. When Joe Biden took office 870 00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:09,839 Speaker 1: in January of twenty twenty one, the average price of 871 00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:15,680 Speaker 1: gas in the United States was two forty six a gallon. 872 00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:22,960 Speaker 1: The average annual gas price under Biden for his first 873 00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:27,400 Speaker 1: term was three dollars and sixty one cents a gallon. 874 00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:30,480 Speaker 1: So he takes over gas is two dollars and forty 875 00:56:30,560 --> 00:56:33,880 Speaker 1: six cents a gallon. It spikes to an average of 876 00:56:33,920 --> 00:56:39,040 Speaker 1: more than a dollar higher in twenty twenty two for 877 00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:44,120 Speaker 1: the entire year, not for a brief period in late March, 878 00:56:44,760 --> 00:56:48,760 Speaker 1: but for an entire year. The average price of gas 879 00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:51,719 Speaker 1: across the United States in twenty twenty two was four 880 00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:55,480 Speaker 1: dollars in six sets. Now, that was the Putin price hike, 881 00:56:55,880 --> 00:57:00,520 Speaker 1: of course, but it wasn't because gas price You would 882 00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:04,160 Speaker 1: have thought if it was because of Putin's invasion of Ukraine, 883 00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:07,680 Speaker 1: gas prices would have spiked to their highest level in 884 00:57:07,800 --> 00:57:12,799 Speaker 1: February or in early March, when the invasion started and 885 00:57:12,920 --> 00:57:16,880 Speaker 1: not in summer when, in fact, for the first time 886 00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:21,320 Speaker 1: in American history and the only time in American history, 887 00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:24,760 Speaker 1: the average price of gas in all fifty states in 888 00:57:24,840 --> 00:57:28,680 Speaker 1: America was above five dollars a gallon. It got so 889 00:57:28,960 --> 00:57:34,040 Speaker 1: bad politically for Biden that his administration actually tapped the 890 00:57:34,120 --> 00:57:37,920 Speaker 1: Strategic Petroleum Reserve, not because there was any sort of 891 00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:42,800 Speaker 1: actual emergency, but because they were terrified that they were 892 00:57:42,800 --> 00:57:47,800 Speaker 1: going to get absolutely crushed in the midterm elections if 893 00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:51,000 Speaker 1: gas prices stayed that high. Do you realize that four 894 00:57:51,080 --> 00:57:54,960 Speaker 1: years later, nearly four full years later, President Trump is 895 00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:59,480 Speaker 1: still desperately trying to refill the Strategic Petroleum Reserve after 896 00:57:59,520 --> 00:58:04,440 Speaker 1: Biden rated it to save his party politically. In June 897 00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:10,120 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two, the average price of gas hit five dollars. 898 00:58:09,600 --> 00:58:13,000 Speaker 2: And sixteen cents a gallon. 899 00:58:16,400 --> 00:58:20,960 Speaker 1: The three dollars in sixty one cent average gas price 900 00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:28,080 Speaker 1: under Biden was roughly forty percent higher than in President 901 00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:35,920 Speaker 1: Trump's first term twenty seventeen to twenty twenty one. All right, 902 00:58:36,680 --> 00:58:42,360 Speaker 1: Trump's full first term average was a full dollar less 903 00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:46,320 Speaker 1: than Joe Bidens two fifty seven a gallon under Trump 904 00:58:47,120 --> 00:58:51,360 Speaker 1: to three dollars in sixty one cents a gallon under Biden. 905 00:58:53,040 --> 00:59:00,120 Speaker 1: During Trump's first term, at no point was there any 906 00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:02,880 Speaker 1: average gas price above three dollars a gallon. 907 00:59:02,880 --> 00:59:04,520 Speaker 2: Now think about that for a second. 908 00:59:04,840 --> 00:59:08,160 Speaker 1: While Trump was the beneficiar on gas prices of the 909 00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:11,920 Speaker 1: COVID nineteen lockdown, where gas prices plummeted, I believe the 910 00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:14,440 Speaker 1: average price got all the way down to something like 911 00:59:14,480 --> 00:59:17,680 Speaker 1: a dollar seventy a dollars seventy five a gallon in 912 00:59:17,760 --> 00:59:20,240 Speaker 1: March April May of twenty twenty because there was simply 913 00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:26,880 Speaker 1: no demand. Nobody was driving around. At no point, at 914 00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:32,640 Speaker 1: no point from twenty seventeen to the COVID shutdown did 915 00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:35,720 Speaker 1: the average gas price did did gas prices ever hit 916 00:59:35,720 --> 00:59:36,400 Speaker 1: three dollars a. 917 00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:39,400 Speaker 2: Gallon under Trump? Okay, think about that for a second. 918 00:59:40,480 --> 00:59:44,960 Speaker 1: At no point was there any sort of three dollars 919 00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:52,080 Speaker 1: average gas. However, under Biden, the average price of a 920 00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:56,680 Speaker 1: gallon of gasoline was sixty one cents higher than three 921 00:59:56,800 --> 01:00:03,040 Speaker 1: dollars a gallon. That's under madness, that is utter madness 922 01:00:03,360 --> 01:00:10,040 Speaker 1: that Democrats would even think about using gas prices. Within 923 01:00:10,120 --> 01:00:16,840 Speaker 1: eighteen months of Joe Biden being inaugurated, gas prices more 924 01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:21,480 Speaker 1: than doubled in the United States even before the COVID 925 01:00:21,560 --> 01:00:22,600 Speaker 1: nineteen shutdown. 926 01:00:22,800 --> 01:00:24,520 Speaker 2: During Trump's term, there. 927 01:00:24,440 --> 01:00:27,440 Speaker 1: Was a steady ebb and flow of gas prices, and 928 01:00:27,440 --> 01:00:33,240 Speaker 1: again they never got above three dollars a gallon average 929 01:00:33,280 --> 01:00:37,800 Speaker 1: price two dollars fifty seven cents a gallon, Biden three 930 01:00:37,880 --> 01:00:43,160 Speaker 1: dollars and sixty one cents a gallon. I never never 931 01:00:43,760 --> 01:00:48,840 Speaker 1: want to hear Democrats complaining about gas prices under Trump. 932 01:00:49,600 --> 01:00:49,920 Speaker 2: Again. 933 01:00:52,400 --> 01:00:57,720 Speaker 1: It is the Dan O'Donnell's show, Classical Conservatism, contemporary style. 934 01:00:57,960 --> 01:00:59,360 Speaker 2: Welcome back to it. 935 01:01:00,040 --> 01:01:01,720 Speaker 1: I know I said earlier we were going to have 936 01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:05,720 Speaker 1: some fun by talking about the trans day of Visibility 937 01:01:05,720 --> 01:01:09,040 Speaker 1: being one of just one hundred and fifty days forty 938 01:01:09,120 --> 01:01:14,560 Speaker 1: one percent of every single year is covered by LGBTQ 939 01:01:14,640 --> 01:01:20,760 Speaker 1: plus minus sign ampersand pound sign community themed days, forty 940 01:01:20,840 --> 01:01:23,320 Speaker 1: one percent of the entire year. We are going to 941 01:01:23,360 --> 01:01:26,560 Speaker 1: push that back to the five o'clock hour because we 942 01:01:26,640 --> 01:01:30,880 Speaker 1: have got some big developing news into us this afternoon. 943 01:01:31,440 --> 01:01:35,920 Speaker 1: A three judge panel appointed by the Wisconsin Supreme Court 944 01:01:35,960 --> 01:01:38,680 Speaker 1: to review a lawsuit seeking to strike down the state's 945 01:01:38,680 --> 01:01:43,560 Speaker 1: congressional maps has instead ruled that it has no authority 946 01:01:43,600 --> 01:01:47,520 Speaker 1: to do so. That it cannot overturn a decision of 947 01:01:47,560 --> 01:01:51,520 Speaker 1: the Wisconsin Supreme Court that an attempt to do so 948 01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:56,440 Speaker 1: amounts to partisan jerrymandering, and it threw out the lawsuit. Now, 949 01:01:56,480 --> 01:02:00,960 Speaker 1: this is one of two different lawsuits that the Wisconsin 950 01:02:01,040 --> 01:02:06,240 Speaker 1: Supreme Court essentially consolidated, and there is still a second 951 01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:09,800 Speaker 1: three judge panel that is hearing the second suit, but 952 01:02:09,960 --> 01:02:12,680 Speaker 1: that one is scheduled to go to trial in twenty 953 01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:16,680 Speaker 1: twenty seven and won't impact the twenty twenty six midterms. 954 01:02:17,240 --> 01:02:21,479 Speaker 1: The suit that was dismissed today was one that could 955 01:02:21,520 --> 01:02:28,680 Speaker 1: have potentially redistricted the two most vulnerable Republicans, Derrick van 956 01:02:28,720 --> 01:02:32,840 Speaker 1: Worden and Brian Style. The attempt here was to just 957 01:02:33,080 --> 01:02:38,880 Speaker 1: this was a shameful attempt at partisan jerry mandering. Unsurprisingly, 958 01:02:39,080 --> 01:02:42,840 Speaker 1: the suits were filed by Law Forward and the Elias 959 01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:48,360 Speaker 1: Law Group, two of the most noxious, noxious election law 960 01:02:48,400 --> 01:02:52,480 Speaker 1: firms in the entire country. When you talk about attempts 961 01:02:52,520 --> 01:02:56,480 Speaker 1: to rig elections, these are the people that are actually 962 01:02:56,480 --> 01:03:01,040 Speaker 1: trying to do it, okay, because what Marks has done 963 01:03:01,040 --> 01:03:05,200 Speaker 1: over the past several years is to try to systematically 964 01:03:05,320 --> 01:03:11,680 Speaker 1: destroy every single legal apparatus, every single law, every single 965 01:03:11,720 --> 01:03:15,040 Speaker 1: administrative rule. He has challenged every single one that would 966 01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:20,040 Speaker 1: provide a single modicum of electoral integrity that would actually 967 01:03:20,160 --> 01:03:24,360 Speaker 1: protect the security of American elections. He and his group, 968 01:03:24,480 --> 01:03:28,120 Speaker 1: the Elias Law Group, have tried to strike down every 969 01:03:28,160 --> 01:03:32,840 Speaker 1: single one. So they bring a lawsuit to essentially claim 970 01:03:33,080 --> 01:03:37,600 Speaker 1: that the congressional maps, which have been in place since 971 01:03:37,840 --> 01:03:41,600 Speaker 1: twenty eleven, or at least a variation of them, the 972 01:03:41,640 --> 01:03:45,240 Speaker 1: most recent iteration of the congressional maps were drawn by 973 01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:50,080 Speaker 1: Governor Evers and his People's Maps Commission. But yet they 974 01:03:50,080 --> 01:03:56,640 Speaker 1: were challenged as a partisan jerrymander that somehow was benefiting Republicans. Now, 975 01:03:56,880 --> 01:03:59,800 Speaker 1: in order to believe this, you would have to believe 976 01:03:59,840 --> 01:04:03,440 Speaker 1: that Tony Evers was a secret Republican agent, that he 977 01:04:03,640 --> 01:04:07,320 Speaker 1: wasn't actually a left wing hack, that he was actually 978 01:04:07,400 --> 01:04:10,560 Speaker 1: a secret Republican and wanted to draw the congressional maps 979 01:04:10,560 --> 01:04:14,920 Speaker 1: in such a way that would dramatically benefit Republicans and 980 01:04:15,040 --> 01:04:19,560 Speaker 1: not Democrats. Well, the suit was thrown out, and in 981 01:04:19,640 --> 01:04:24,040 Speaker 1: so doing, this three judge panel affirmed what I told you. 982 01:04:24,720 --> 01:04:28,560 Speaker 2: I told you. I really hate I promise you. 983 01:04:28,680 --> 01:04:32,280 Speaker 1: I do not like telling you I told you so, Okay, 984 01:04:32,280 --> 01:04:34,040 Speaker 1: I kind of like telling you I told you so. 985 01:04:34,240 --> 01:04:41,000 Speaker 1: But on matters of constitutional law, especially in this state. Please, Libs, 986 01:04:41,160 --> 01:04:44,320 Speaker 1: I am begging you. You may hate my guts, you 987 01:04:44,400 --> 01:04:47,760 Speaker 1: may think Dan O'Donnell is the single worst person in 988 01:04:47,800 --> 01:04:50,480 Speaker 1: the state, but I am begging you please listen to 989 01:04:50,600 --> 01:04:55,400 Speaker 1: me on issues of constitutional law. I actually do know 990 01:04:55,560 --> 01:04:59,560 Speaker 1: a little something about this subject. And I said from 991 01:04:59,600 --> 01:05:03,160 Speaker 1: the very outset when the Wisconsin Supreme Court took these 992 01:05:03,200 --> 01:05:07,360 Speaker 1: cases and instead of just ruling on their merits, they 993 01:05:07,440 --> 01:05:10,480 Speaker 1: claimed that they were bound by a Wisconsin law that 994 01:05:10,560 --> 01:05:14,920 Speaker 1: said three judge panels drawn from different districts from across 995 01:05:14,960 --> 01:05:18,680 Speaker 1: this state need to hear these cases. Well, what that 996 01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:24,880 Speaker 1: did was to set up a constitutional impossibility wherein a 997 01:05:24,880 --> 01:05:28,520 Speaker 1: circuit court judge or hear a panel of three circuit 998 01:05:28,520 --> 01:05:31,840 Speaker 1: court judges would be able to review a decision of 999 01:05:31,880 --> 01:05:36,520 Speaker 1: the Wisconsin Supreme Court and potentially overturn it. The Wisconsin 1000 01:05:36,600 --> 01:05:40,400 Speaker 1: Supreme Court ruled three years ago, when it was under 1001 01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:47,120 Speaker 1: conservative control, that the congressional maps were perfectly fine. Incidentally, 1002 01:05:47,600 --> 01:05:50,280 Speaker 1: the case also went to the United States Supreme Court, 1003 01:05:50,680 --> 01:05:54,840 Speaker 1: which also declined to change anything about the congressional map. 1004 01:05:54,920 --> 01:05:57,120 Speaker 1: So both the US Supreme Court and the Wisconsin Supreme 1005 01:05:57,160 --> 01:06:01,439 Speaker 1: Court both ruled that Governor evils. Governor evil, that boy, 1006 01:06:01,480 --> 01:06:06,560 Speaker 1: that's a Freudian slip. Governor evers. People's commission maps were 1007 01:06:06,600 --> 01:06:09,320 Speaker 1: perfectly fine, and those are the maps that are going 1008 01:06:09,360 --> 01:06:11,840 Speaker 1: to be used for the rest of the decade. When 1009 01:06:11,880 --> 01:06:14,520 Speaker 1: this challenge came up and the court appointed the three 1010 01:06:14,600 --> 01:06:19,640 Speaker 1: judge panels, I said, look, because the Wisconsin Supreme Court 1011 01:06:19,920 --> 01:06:24,520 Speaker 1: is the court of last resort in Wisconsin, there is 1012 01:06:24,680 --> 01:06:29,160 Speaker 1: no lower court that under the Wisconsin Constitution or under 1013 01:06:29,200 --> 01:06:33,040 Speaker 1: Wisconsin state law, that can overturn a decision by the 1014 01:06:33,040 --> 01:06:36,520 Speaker 1: Wisconsin Supreme Court. It is a legal impossibility, it is 1015 01:06:36,560 --> 01:06:42,120 Speaker 1: a constitutional impossibility. As a result, any decision that a 1016 01:06:42,160 --> 01:06:46,640 Speaker 1: circuit court makes overturning a Wisconsin would be invalid on 1017 01:06:46,680 --> 01:06:49,720 Speaker 1: its face. In fact, I am convinced that a circuit 1018 01:06:49,760 --> 01:06:54,000 Speaker 1: court cannot even review a decision by the Wisconsin Supreme Court, 1019 01:06:54,280 --> 01:06:58,160 Speaker 1: and that this second case, which is still active, needs 1020 01:06:58,200 --> 01:06:59,680 Speaker 1: to be thrown out as well. 1021 01:07:00,640 --> 01:07:01,000 Speaker 2: Well. 1022 01:07:01,080 --> 01:07:04,640 Speaker 1: In dismissing the first case, this three judge panel, which 1023 01:07:04,680 --> 01:07:09,280 Speaker 1: by the way, was made up of partisan leftist judges, 1024 01:07:09,360 --> 01:07:12,600 Speaker 1: we actually did a deep dive into all of their 1025 01:07:12,640 --> 01:07:15,760 Speaker 1: backgrounds when they were announced as the three judge panel 1026 01:07:15,800 --> 01:07:21,320 Speaker 1: that was going to review the congressional maps, and they 1027 01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:24,800 Speaker 1: boy boy one was a county party chairman for the 1028 01:07:24,840 --> 01:07:29,480 Speaker 1: Democratic Party. Almost all of them were appointed by Evers. 1029 01:07:29,880 --> 01:07:33,000 Speaker 1: You had donations to Evers and to congressional dev and 1030 01:07:33,160 --> 01:07:38,920 Speaker 1: they were all partisan deps, even partisan Demes. Ruled in 1031 01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:42,520 Speaker 1: dismissing this suit that this was an attempt at a 1032 01:07:42,560 --> 01:07:47,760 Speaker 1: partisan jerry mander benefiting Democrats, that not only did they 1033 01:07:47,880 --> 01:07:51,160 Speaker 1: lack the legal authority to overturn the Court of last 1034 01:07:51,240 --> 01:07:56,040 Speaker 1: Resorts in Wisconsin, that doing so would be to give 1035 01:07:56,080 --> 01:07:59,800 Speaker 1: in to a partisan jerrymander benefiting Democrats. 1036 01:08:00,800 --> 01:08:02,120 Speaker 2: This is actually kind of. 1037 01:08:02,080 --> 01:08:09,040 Speaker 1: A remarkable ruling, absolutely remarkable ruling by the Wisconsin Supreme 1038 01:08:09,120 --> 01:08:13,920 Speaker 1: Courts three judge panel, because what it says is we 1039 01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:17,320 Speaker 1: don't have the authority to do any of this. Democrats, 1040 01:08:17,360 --> 01:08:21,439 Speaker 1: who by the way, have been screeching that Governor Evers 1041 01:08:21,520 --> 01:08:26,960 Speaker 1: maps were a partisan jerrymander for Republicans, that they weren't. 1042 01:08:27,640 --> 01:08:28,040 Speaker 2: I mean, it. 1043 01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:32,800 Speaker 1: Was nonsensical on its face. Now, what they argued was, 1044 01:08:32,840 --> 01:08:36,040 Speaker 1: by the way, that the same basic congressional maps have 1045 01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:38,920 Speaker 1: been in place since twenty ten, twenty eleven, after the 1046 01:08:39,200 --> 01:08:42,880 Speaker 1: twenty ten cents of twenty eleven redistricting. You have to 1047 01:08:43,000 --> 01:08:46,439 Speaker 1: use what's known as least change. It's called the least 1048 01:08:46,600 --> 01:08:53,760 Speaker 1: change approach to congressional redistricting, and you absolutely, you absolutely 1049 01:08:54,479 --> 01:08:57,479 Speaker 1: do have to abide by that. But what they're saying, 1050 01:08:57,600 --> 01:09:00,560 Speaker 1: what this lawsuit says, was because because it was a 1051 01:09:00,680 --> 01:09:03,479 Speaker 1: least change from a Republican map, it's actually a Republican 1052 01:09:03,560 --> 01:09:07,160 Speaker 1: jerry mander, and that even Governor Evers couldn't do enough 1053 01:09:07,200 --> 01:09:11,400 Speaker 1: to save Wisconsin from this horrible, horrible partisan jerry mander. 1054 01:09:12,320 --> 01:09:16,800 Speaker 1: It was just ludicrous. Nothing about either of these lawsuits 1055 01:09:16,840 --> 01:09:21,559 Speaker 1: made any sense. And for even avowed partisan liberal hack 1056 01:09:21,840 --> 01:09:26,920 Speaker 1: judges to come up with this concludedly, look, folks, this 1057 01:09:26,960 --> 01:09:29,599 Speaker 1: is why you do have to say I told you so. Actually, 1058 01:09:30,160 --> 01:09:32,679 Speaker 1: my good friend Mark Belling said that all the time 1059 01:09:32,840 --> 01:09:36,800 Speaker 1: you have to say Conservatives Republicans have to say I 1060 01:09:36,920 --> 01:09:39,400 Speaker 1: told you so, because nobody else will. You have to 1061 01:09:39,439 --> 01:09:43,639 Speaker 1: constantly remind people that you are right on the issues. 1062 01:09:44,000 --> 01:09:49,759 Speaker 1: Conservatives are invariably right on policy, but Democrats just never ever, 1063 01:09:50,000 --> 01:09:54,679 Speaker 1: ever listen. Democrats will never say, oh yeah, yeah, Republicans 1064 01:09:54,720 --> 01:09:59,080 Speaker 1: were right about that. As soon as this suit was filed, 1065 01:10:00,240 --> 01:10:03,519 Speaker 1: I said, it is nonsensical You're going to have to 1066 01:10:03,560 --> 01:10:06,840 Speaker 1: make the argument to a court that Tony Evers is 1067 01:10:06,920 --> 01:10:11,920 Speaker 1: secretly jerry mandering this state for Republicans. That's an art 1068 01:10:12,280 --> 01:10:14,960 Speaker 1: that's an argument that's just not going to fly. Not 1069 01:10:15,080 --> 01:10:19,040 Speaker 1: only that, I can actually probably find the audio if 1070 01:10:19,080 --> 01:10:19,840 Speaker 1: I really need. 1071 01:10:20,200 --> 01:10:24,880 Speaker 2: I talked about this for days, for days. How can a. 1072 01:10:24,800 --> 01:10:28,520 Speaker 1: Circuit court overturn a ruling by the Supreme Court? 1073 01:10:29,360 --> 01:10:29,679 Speaker 2: Folks? 1074 01:10:29,680 --> 01:10:35,320 Speaker 1: When I say that the court's liberals are not actual jurists, 1075 01:10:35,360 --> 01:10:39,559 Speaker 1: they know nothing about Wisconsin law, they know nothing about 1076 01:10:39,560 --> 01:10:40,960 Speaker 1: the Wisconsin Constitution. 1077 01:10:42,680 --> 01:10:45,599 Speaker 2: They didn't they could not have a point. I said. 1078 01:10:45,920 --> 01:10:48,880 Speaker 1: They need to decide this case themselves, but they don't 1079 01:10:48,920 --> 01:10:51,920 Speaker 1: want to because they're terrified that they're going to get 1080 01:10:51,960 --> 01:10:55,240 Speaker 1: slapped down by the United States Supreme Court because this 1081 01:10:55,400 --> 01:10:58,040 Speaker 1: was such an obvious partisan jerry mattering, because they had 1082 01:10:58,080 --> 01:11:01,080 Speaker 1: no actual authority to do this based on the grounds 1083 01:11:01,120 --> 01:11:03,960 Speaker 1: that were claimed in the suit, so. 1084 01:11:03,840 --> 01:11:05,320 Speaker 2: They passed the buck on over. 1085 01:11:05,360 --> 01:11:08,719 Speaker 1: They passed the responsibility on over to this three judge panel, 1086 01:11:08,800 --> 01:11:12,000 Speaker 1: which of course had no authority. 1087 01:11:11,800 --> 01:11:12,200 Speaker 2: To do so. 1088 01:11:12,640 --> 01:11:16,439 Speaker 1: Folks, this is a classic reminder of why a week 1089 01:11:16,520 --> 01:11:21,160 Speaker 1: from now, it is imperative that we elect Maria Lazar. No, 1090 01:11:21,280 --> 01:11:24,280 Speaker 1: it's not going to change the ideological balance of the court, 1091 01:11:25,160 --> 01:11:30,000 Speaker 1: but it will be another voice in the dissent saying 1092 01:11:30,360 --> 01:11:35,960 Speaker 1: what this is is stupid, what this is is anti constitutional, 1093 01:11:36,040 --> 01:11:40,120 Speaker 1: and frankly, we have gotten a little too accustomed in 1094 01:11:40,160 --> 01:11:45,480 Speaker 1: this state to anti constitutional rulings from this liberal Wisconsin 1095 01:11:45,520 --> 01:11:47,840 Speaker 1: Supreme Court. We'll dive into that in a little bit 1096 01:11:47,880 --> 01:11:51,000 Speaker 1: greater depth when The Dan o'donald Show returns in just 1097 01:11:51,040 --> 01:11:57,599 Speaker 1: a couple of minutes. Conservative Thought, not just talk. It 1098 01:11:57,720 --> 01:12:00,360 Speaker 1: is the Dan o'donald Show. Welcome back to We are 1099 01:12:00,360 --> 01:12:05,160 Speaker 1: following that developing story. A three judge panel appointed by 1100 01:12:05,200 --> 01:12:11,000 Speaker 1: the Wisconsin Supreme Court has dismissed an attempt to jerrymander 1101 01:12:11,160 --> 01:12:15,800 Speaker 1: the state's congressional maps. Essentially, what this was was an 1102 01:12:15,880 --> 01:12:20,759 Speaker 1: attempt to steal two congressional seats from both Brian Style 1103 01:12:20,960 --> 01:12:25,280 Speaker 1: and Derek Van Orden and just jerrymander them so there 1104 01:12:25,360 --> 01:12:28,559 Speaker 1: was no way that they or any other Republican would 1105 01:12:28,600 --> 01:12:32,240 Speaker 1: ever be able to win them. Well, the dismissal today 1106 01:12:32,479 --> 01:12:35,600 Speaker 1: of the one suit, there is still another that is 1107 01:12:36,120 --> 01:12:38,479 Speaker 1: set to go to trial in twenty twenty seven, obviously 1108 01:12:38,520 --> 01:12:42,439 Speaker 1: would not impact this year's midterms. The dismissal of this 1109 01:12:42,960 --> 01:12:46,120 Speaker 1: means that Style and Van Orden are both going to 1110 01:12:46,160 --> 01:12:49,800 Speaker 1: be running in their current districts. Style has got to 1111 01:12:49,840 --> 01:12:52,559 Speaker 1: be considered a prohibitive favorite. 1112 01:12:52,560 --> 01:12:54,559 Speaker 2: In fact, I'm not sure. 1113 01:12:54,640 --> 01:12:56,920 Speaker 1: I'll be totally blunt with you, I'm not sure if 1114 01:12:56,920 --> 01:13:00,920 Speaker 1: he has a serious opponent yet, Derek Van Orden does. 1115 01:13:01,080 --> 01:13:04,960 Speaker 1: Rebecca Cook, a Democrat who ran last time. She is 1116 01:13:05,000 --> 01:13:07,719 Speaker 1: a far left radical. She actually put out her own 1117 01:13:07,760 --> 01:13:12,040 Speaker 1: internal poll the other day that shows her only up one. 1118 01:13:12,120 --> 01:13:15,120 Speaker 1: In fact, if if that is true, and her own 1119 01:13:15,160 --> 01:13:17,720 Speaker 1: internal polling only as her up one in the closest 1120 01:13:17,840 --> 01:13:22,400 Speaker 1: congressional district in the state in what's supposed to be 1121 01:13:22,479 --> 01:13:26,080 Speaker 1: a massive Democrat year at the time at which President 1122 01:13:26,080 --> 01:13:30,080 Speaker 1: Trump supposedly has the lowest polling he has ever had. 1123 01:13:31,080 --> 01:13:33,599 Speaker 2: That's a terrible poll for Rebecca Cook. 1124 01:13:33,680 --> 01:13:36,960 Speaker 1: And that probably tells me that Van Orden has got 1125 01:13:37,000 --> 01:13:40,760 Speaker 1: to be considered a prohibitive favorite to win reelection in 1126 01:13:40,880 --> 01:13:43,840 Speaker 1: the third congressional district as well. 1127 01:13:43,880 --> 01:13:44,160 Speaker 2: Well. 1128 01:13:44,200 --> 01:13:48,000 Speaker 1: A number of statements have been released about this. The 1129 01:13:48,160 --> 01:13:52,800 Speaker 1: National Republican Congressional Committee has put out a statement, this 1130 01:13:52,920 --> 01:13:56,160 Speaker 1: is a significant win for Republicans and yet another blow 1131 01:13:56,200 --> 01:13:59,520 Speaker 1: to desperate Democrats who wanted to reshape the electoral landscape. 1132 01:13:59,520 --> 01:14:02,519 Speaker 1: By keeping Wisconsin's current district lines in place for twenty 1133 01:14:02,560 --> 01:14:05,759 Speaker 1: twenty six, Republicans are in a strong position to build 1134 01:14:05,760 --> 01:14:09,800 Speaker 1: on our momentum to retain and grow our House majority. 1135 01:14:11,439 --> 01:14:15,760 Speaker 1: Let's not get two nuts here. I do think Democrats 1136 01:14:15,760 --> 01:14:19,280 Speaker 1: are still very likely to win the majority in the 1137 01:14:19,479 --> 01:14:23,760 Speaker 1: United States House. But what this decision does is to 1138 01:14:24,000 --> 01:14:29,080 Speaker 1: very likely preserve the Derek van Worden and the Brian 1139 01:14:29,200 --> 01:14:34,479 Speaker 1: style seats. So this is undoubtedly great, great news for 1140 01:14:34,600 --> 01:14:41,080 Speaker 1: those two. Congressman Mark pokhan who has been screaming, squealing 1141 01:14:41,439 --> 01:14:44,040 Speaker 1: if you will, like a pig, which is probably a 1142 01:14:44,200 --> 01:14:49,160 Speaker 1: very apt metaphor in more ways than one for Mark 1143 01:14:49,240 --> 01:14:55,919 Speaker 1: pok Hanan, he is surprisingly not jolly for his physical shape. 1144 01:14:56,760 --> 01:15:01,560 Speaker 1: He has been squealing about the need to to gerrymander 1145 01:15:01,760 --> 01:15:06,240 Speaker 1: the state's congressional maps. Never mind the fact that Pocan 1146 01:15:06,960 --> 01:15:11,520 Speaker 1: is in easily the safest district in the state. Madison 1147 01:15:11,640 --> 01:15:15,240 Speaker 1: is never ever, ever going to elect a Democrat. But 1148 01:15:15,920 --> 01:15:20,639 Speaker 1: what this decision yet again proves from the Wisconsin Supreme Court, 1149 01:15:20,680 --> 01:15:26,000 Speaker 1: who remember appointed this three judge panel in direct violation 1150 01:15:26,160 --> 01:15:29,160 Speaker 1: of state law. They thought okay, state law requires us 1151 01:15:29,200 --> 01:15:34,000 Speaker 1: to do so. No, they should have just taken the case. 1152 01:15:34,200 --> 01:15:38,599 Speaker 1: But what happened today, According to the Wisconsin Institute for 1153 01:15:38,800 --> 01:15:42,840 Speaker 1: Law and Liberty, the court denied the plaintiff's attempt to 1154 01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:47,600 Speaker 1: fast track the case and then just dismissed the case outright. 1155 01:15:48,040 --> 01:15:51,519 Speaker 1: Lucas Weber of the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberties 1156 01:15:51,560 --> 01:15:54,600 Speaker 1: that our team at will will continue to work to 1157 01:15:54,720 --> 01:15:58,120 Speaker 1: uphold the rule of law in Wisconsin. Thank goodness that 1158 01:15:58,280 --> 01:16:03,400 Speaker 1: they are. The reason that the state Supreme Court basically 1159 01:16:03,439 --> 01:16:07,479 Speaker 1: outsourced the review of this case was because that they 1160 01:16:07,479 --> 01:16:13,400 Speaker 1: were terrified. They were absolutely terrified of getting overturned by 1161 01:16:13,400 --> 01:16:17,200 Speaker 1: the United States Supreme Court in embarrassing fashion for the 1162 01:16:17,400 --> 01:16:20,839 Speaker 1: second time in as many years. About a year ago, 1163 01:16:21,360 --> 01:16:27,320 Speaker 1: in a case involving the Catholic Charities. I believe it 1164 01:16:27,360 --> 01:16:30,320 Speaker 1: was either Catholic Charities or Salvation Army, one of the two. 1165 01:16:30,840 --> 01:16:34,160 Speaker 1: The details of this case escaped me, but the fundamental 1166 01:16:34,280 --> 01:16:39,519 Speaker 1: ruling was that the Supreme Court of Wisconsin, the four 1167 01:16:39,600 --> 01:16:43,200 Speaker 1: Libs this was Anne Walsh Bradley before she retired, gave 1168 01:16:43,240 --> 01:16:46,720 Speaker 1: way to Susan Crawford, who had won the election but 1169 01:16:46,760 --> 01:16:52,720 Speaker 1: had not yet been sworn in as the fourth liberal justice. 1170 01:16:53,800 --> 01:16:57,760 Speaker 1: The court ruled that it was either Salvation Army or 1171 01:16:57,760 --> 01:17:03,600 Speaker 1: Catholic Charities was exempt or not exempt from the Wisconsin 1172 01:17:03,720 --> 01:17:04,839 Speaker 1: retirement system. 1173 01:17:05,479 --> 01:17:06,200 Speaker 2: And it was a. 1174 01:17:06,120 --> 01:17:09,960 Speaker 1: Case that essentially hinged on whether or not it was 1175 01:17:10,080 --> 01:17:15,040 Speaker 1: a religious organization. It was basically a First Amendment religious 1176 01:17:15,040 --> 01:17:20,000 Speaker 1: liberty case. The case was appealed from the Wisconsin Supreme Court, 1177 01:17:20,040 --> 01:17:22,120 Speaker 1: which you can do to the US Supreme Court if 1178 01:17:22,120 --> 01:17:24,879 Speaker 1: there are federal issues involved in Obviously a First Amendment 1179 01:17:25,760 --> 01:17:28,720 Speaker 1: freedom of religion issue is an appealable one to the 1180 01:17:28,800 --> 01:17:29,719 Speaker 1: US Supreme Court. 1181 01:17:30,000 --> 01:17:31,240 Speaker 2: The US Supreme. 1182 01:17:30,840 --> 01:17:36,400 Speaker 1: Court overturned the Wisconsin Supreme Court unanimously. It was a 1183 01:17:36,600 --> 01:17:42,440 Speaker 1: nine to nothing decision. Even Katanji Brown Jackson and Sonya 1184 01:17:42,560 --> 01:17:47,080 Speaker 1: so To Mayor thought that the Wisconsin Supreme Court got 1185 01:17:47,120 --> 01:17:53,840 Speaker 1: this decision wrong. That's actually kind of unbelievable. I Mean, 1186 01:17:54,520 --> 01:17:58,200 Speaker 1: when even Sonya so To Mayor and Katanji Brown Jackson 1187 01:17:58,240 --> 01:18:01,439 Speaker 1: are saying, yeah, you guys in Wisconsin don't really know 1188 01:18:01,520 --> 01:18:02,639 Speaker 1: what you're talking about. 1189 01:18:03,280 --> 01:18:04,760 Speaker 2: That's an incredible embarrassment. 1190 01:18:04,800 --> 01:18:07,080 Speaker 1: And that's the sort of judges that we currently have 1191 01:18:07,200 --> 01:18:10,200 Speaker 1: on the Wisconsin Supreme Court. That's the sort of court 1192 01:18:10,280 --> 01:18:13,559 Speaker 1: that Chris Taylor would be joining. Remember, Chris Taylor is 1193 01:18:13,640 --> 01:18:17,599 Speaker 1: not a judge in any meaningful sense of the phrase. 1194 01:18:17,960 --> 01:18:21,160 Speaker 1: She is a political activist who got her start with 1195 01:18:21,280 --> 01:18:26,360 Speaker 1: planned parenthood, got herself elected to the Wisconsin Assembly, passed 1196 01:18:26,360 --> 01:18:29,160 Speaker 1: a grand total of six bills out of two hundred 1197 01:18:29,200 --> 01:18:33,479 Speaker 1: and forty she either authored or co sponsored on all 1198 01:18:33,680 --> 01:18:38,679 Speaker 1: manner of radical garbage. She wants to be a Supreme 1199 01:18:38,720 --> 01:18:41,639 Speaker 1: Court justice. I'll tell you what she'd fit right in 1200 01:18:41,680 --> 01:18:46,840 Speaker 1: with this majority. But Maria Lazar is actually a principled 1201 01:18:47,200 --> 01:18:50,320 Speaker 1: jurist who is not just going to rule on a 1202 01:18:50,400 --> 01:18:53,559 Speaker 1: case based on who the plaintiffs are, who the defendants are, 1203 01:18:53,600 --> 01:18:57,600 Speaker 1: and whether or not the ruling will benefit the Democrat 1204 01:18:57,680 --> 01:19:04,240 Speaker 1: Party or liberalism more general. This is what people apparently 1205 01:19:04,760 --> 01:19:08,160 Speaker 1: no longer care about in Supreme Court elections but used 1206 01:19:08,160 --> 01:19:12,320 Speaker 1: to now because Democrats have just figured out how to 1207 01:19:12,360 --> 01:19:17,040 Speaker 1: maximize voter turnout by getting every single leftist in Dane 1208 01:19:17,080 --> 01:19:18,880 Speaker 1: County out to the polls. I call it the Ernie 1209 01:19:18,960 --> 01:19:22,400 Speaker 1: von Schladorn model of voting. They push, pull or drag 1210 01:19:22,560 --> 01:19:28,559 Speaker 1: them in and get them voting. You've got activists, you've 1211 01:19:28,560 --> 01:19:32,160 Speaker 1: got voters, You've got people across the Democratic Party and 1212 01:19:32,280 --> 01:19:37,880 Speaker 1: liberal spectrum who fundamentally don't want fair minded jurists. They 1213 01:19:37,920 --> 01:19:42,120 Speaker 1: want activist hacks like Susan Crawford, like Janet protus Awitz, 1214 01:19:42,200 --> 01:19:44,519 Speaker 1: and like Chris Taylor. We're gonna take a break. Dan 1215 01:19:44,560 --> 01:19:48,320 Speaker 1: o'donald's show coming right back.

How much you like the DoD top stories 1229 01:20:36,080 --> 01:20:43,200 Speaker 1: that we are following right now. Prejudge panel appointed by 1230 01:20:43,240 --> 01:20:47,680 Speaker 1: the Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled earlier this afternoon that it 1231 01:20:47,920 --> 01:20:52,160 Speaker 1: lacks the authority to overturn the state's congressional district maps, 1232 01:20:52,200 --> 01:20:55,240 Speaker 1: and it actually dismissed a legal challenge brought by a 1233 01:20:55,320 --> 01:20:59,240 Speaker 1: number of liberal groups. This is great news for Wisconsin 1234 01:20:59,320 --> 01:21:03,600 Speaker 1: Congressman Ryan Style and Derek Van Worden, who were absolutely 1235 01:21:03,640 --> 01:21:06,760 Speaker 1: going to have to run in jerrymander districts if the 1236 01:21:07,040 --> 01:21:10,400 Speaker 1: three judge panel ruled in favor of the plaintiffs. But 1237 01:21:10,439 --> 01:21:14,160 Speaker 1: the panel instead held that the attempt to redraw the 1238 01:21:14,200 --> 01:21:19,280 Speaker 1: maps amounted to a partisan jerrymander aimed at benefiting Democrats. 1239 01:21:19,680 --> 01:21:24,320 Speaker 1: The decision leaves intact the current boundaries, under which Republicans 1240 01:21:24,320 --> 01:21:28,679 Speaker 1: hold six of the state's eight US House seats. Now, 1241 01:21:28,920 --> 01:21:33,920 Speaker 1: there is still a second redistricting lawsuit filed by left 1242 01:21:33,960 --> 01:21:37,400 Speaker 1: wing groups that a three judge panel a separate three 1243 01:21:37,479 --> 01:21:39,960 Speaker 1: judge panel has ruled can go to trial, but that 1244 01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:43,080 Speaker 1: trial is not scheduled to begin until twenty twenty seven, 1245 01:21:43,640 --> 01:21:48,880 Speaker 1: and obviously would not affect the twenty twenty six midterms. 1246 01:21:49,200 --> 01:21:49,720 Speaker 2: All right, now. 1247 01:21:49,800 --> 01:21:58,280 Speaker 1: An update on the state's largest early vote drive.

Governor Ebers today on the Transgender 1276 01:23:39,840 --> 01:23:45,800 Speaker 1: Day of Visibility, vetoed a number of bills that Republicans 1277 01:23:45,920 --> 01:23:51,400 Speaker 1: passed that would have wealth restored some sanity to Wisconsin. 1278 01:23:51,479 --> 01:23:54,560 Speaker 2: Instead, he said in his veto message. 1279 01:24:14,000 --> 01:24:47,160 Speaker 4: As yeah, yeah, that uh, that's that's about right. 1280 01:24:47,520 --> 01:24:51,479 Speaker 2: So what would the bills have done? Well? 1281 01:24:51,520 --> 01:24:55,600 Speaker 1: The biggest one, a B one O four, would have 1282 01:24:55,720 --> 01:24:58,560 Speaker 1: prohibited healthcare providers in the state. 1283 01:24:58,320 --> 01:25:01,320 Speaker 2: From performing or referring. 1284 01:25:00,840 --> 01:25:06,720 Speaker 1: For gender transition interventions like puberty blockers, cross sex hormones, 1285 01:25:06,960 --> 01:25:10,840 Speaker 1: or surgeries on anyone under the age of eighteen. It 1286 01:25:10,880 --> 01:25:15,839 Speaker 1: would have criminalized transing the kids. Now, this is something 1287 01:25:15,880 --> 01:25:19,719 Speaker 1: that is just common sense. This should be a ninety 1288 01:25:19,840 --> 01:25:23,000 Speaker 1: ten issue. I suspect that it actually is a ninety 1289 01:25:23,040 --> 01:25:27,600 Speaker 1: ten issue. But Democrats, because they are now beholden to 1290 01:25:27,760 --> 01:25:35,200 Speaker 1: an increasingly radicalized, increasingly frankly, severely mentally ill subset of 1291 01:25:35,280 --> 01:25:39,519 Speaker 1: their voter base that absolutely does want to trans the kids, 1292 01:25:40,000 --> 01:25:44,320 Speaker 1: Evers had no choice but to veto this. Just a 1293 01:25:44,400 --> 01:25:48,840 Speaker 1: decade ago, Tony Evers and the rest of the Wisconsin 1294 01:25:48,920 --> 01:25:54,360 Speaker 1: Democrat party probably would have not lined up behind the 1295 01:25:54,439 --> 01:25:57,840 Speaker 1: segment of the population very small. Though it may be 1296 01:25:58,479 --> 01:26:03,759 Speaker 1: saying that we need to give puberty blocking drugs to people, 1297 01:26:04,120 --> 01:26:09,759 Speaker 1: to children, I just folks. I sometimes get in trouble 1298 01:26:09,800 --> 01:26:14,040 Speaker 1: with my conservative listener base when I say, look, if 1299 01:26:14,080 --> 01:26:17,679 Speaker 1: you are an adult, if you are somebody who can, 1300 01:26:18,160 --> 01:26:21,639 Speaker 1: if you are of sound mind, frankly, does it matter 1301 01:26:22,040 --> 01:26:25,800 Speaker 1: one hill of beans to me if you decide to 1302 01:26:25,840 --> 01:26:28,320 Speaker 1: trans yourself, if you want to live as a woman, 1303 01:26:28,880 --> 01:26:31,920 Speaker 1: by God, good for you. Now, what I would caution 1304 01:26:32,640 --> 01:26:36,639 Speaker 1: is that gender dysphoria, the idea that you were born 1305 01:26:36,720 --> 01:26:40,600 Speaker 1: in the wrong body, is very closely tied to severe 1306 01:26:40,720 --> 01:26:44,799 Speaker 1: mental illness, and for the better part of the whole 1307 01:26:45,040 --> 01:26:50,519 Speaker 1: of psychiatric treatment and the history of the psychiatry. In 1308 01:26:50,560 --> 01:26:53,000 Speaker 1: the Psychology movie it was classified gender dysphoria is a 1309 01:26:53,040 --> 01:26:57,120 Speaker 1: mental illness, and I still do nothing has changed. It 1310 01:26:57,200 --> 01:27:02,599 Speaker 1: is a mental illness. It is indicative of broader, deep 1311 01:27:02,680 --> 01:27:06,840 Speaker 1: dissatisfaction with self. If you are unhappy with the fact 1312 01:27:06,840 --> 01:27:09,400 Speaker 1: that you're, say, a man, and you believe you would 1313 01:27:09,439 --> 01:27:12,679 Speaker 1: be happy as a woman, that probably reveals that it's 1314 01:27:12,760 --> 01:27:15,880 Speaker 1: not just your gender. You're dissatisfied with there's a whole 1315 01:27:15,880 --> 01:27:18,840 Speaker 1: lot more about you that you just don't like. Not 1316 01:27:18,920 --> 01:27:21,840 Speaker 1: only that, we know there are huge links to autism, 1317 01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:25,040 Speaker 1: there are huge links to schizophrenia, which you see why 1318 01:27:25,080 --> 01:27:29,960 Speaker 1: you see a recent rise in just extreme violence committed 1319 01:27:30,000 --> 01:27:33,960 Speaker 1: by the transgender community. You had a shooting down in Tennessee, 1320 01:27:34,080 --> 01:27:38,600 Speaker 1: you had a shooting in Minneapolis committed by transgender You 1321 01:27:38,720 --> 01:27:44,040 Speaker 1: had the free boyfriend of a transgender killed, Charlie Kirk. 1322 01:27:44,120 --> 01:27:48,080 Speaker 1: I mean, you have all sorts of violent pathology in 1323 01:27:48,120 --> 01:27:52,240 Speaker 1: the transgender community because it's so closely linked to the 1324 01:27:52,400 --> 01:27:56,960 Speaker 1: very violent disease of schizophrenia. So I would I would 1325 01:27:57,040 --> 01:28:01,280 Speaker 1: caution somebody before they make the decision to chop the 1326 01:28:01,400 --> 01:28:03,960 Speaker 1: you know what off and start living as a woman, 1327 01:28:04,360 --> 01:28:08,639 Speaker 1: make sure you are in consultation with a responsible mental 1328 01:28:08,680 --> 01:28:13,080 Speaker 1: health professional who is treating your whole person and not 1329 01:28:13,280 --> 01:28:18,080 Speaker 1: just the most superficial thing about you. So AB one 1330 01:28:18,160 --> 01:28:23,959 Speaker 1: oh four would have prohibited gender surgeries for children, puberty blockers, 1331 01:28:24,000 --> 01:28:29,439 Speaker 1: cross sex hormones, that sort of thing. AB one hundred 1332 01:28:30,560 --> 01:28:34,320 Speaker 1: would have required K twelve public charter and private schools 1333 01:28:34,360 --> 01:28:38,880 Speaker 1: to designate athletic teams, locker rooms, and facilities by biological 1334 01:28:38,960 --> 01:28:42,040 Speaker 1: sex as listed on birth certificates, and it would bar 1335 01:28:42,240 --> 01:28:46,719 Speaker 1: students from teams or spaces, bathrooms locker rooms not matching 1336 01:28:46,800 --> 01:28:50,360 Speaker 1: their sex at birth. Again, this one just sort of 1337 01:28:50,479 --> 01:28:53,240 Speaker 1: seems like it would be common sense, doesn't it. The 1338 01:28:53,479 --> 01:28:59,160 Speaker 1: boys bathroom is for boys, girls' bathroom is for girls. 1339 01:29:00,200 --> 01:29:04,200 Speaker 1: Two would have applied similar designations and restrictions to the 1340 01:29:04,280 --> 01:29:08,400 Speaker 1: UW system technical schools across the state. There would be 1341 01:29:08,479 --> 01:29:13,479 Speaker 1: provisions allowing female students to sue non compliant institutions. Looking 1342 01:29:13,560 --> 01:29:17,519 Speaker 1: at you, u W Madison, everyone knows. Had that bill passed, 1343 01:29:17,640 --> 01:29:21,200 Speaker 1: they would have been the worst offender. AB ONEH three 1344 01:29:22,200 --> 01:29:26,280 Speaker 1: would have mandated schools to obtain parental consent before using 1345 01:29:26,320 --> 01:29:31,280 Speaker 1: a name or pronouns for a student differing from official records. Now, 1346 01:29:31,360 --> 01:29:35,560 Speaker 1: what this would have banned is what's known as social transitioning. 1347 01:29:36,520 --> 01:29:38,719 Speaker 1: I mean, it wouldn't have banned it, like, the student 1348 01:29:38,920 --> 01:29:41,760 Speaker 1: would have still been able to socially transition. So what 1349 01:29:41,920 --> 01:29:47,719 Speaker 1: socially transitioning means is that a kid starts to use 1350 01:29:47,920 --> 01:29:52,400 Speaker 1: a different name. Let's say their name was Jack and 1351 01:29:52,439 --> 01:29:54,160 Speaker 1: they want to live as a girl, so they go 1352 01:29:54,240 --> 01:29:58,160 Speaker 1: by Jazz or Jasmine or something like that. And they 1353 01:29:58,280 --> 01:30:01,639 Speaker 1: change to the female, or they them pronouns or something 1354 01:30:01,720 --> 01:30:05,000 Speaker 1: like that. Well, what this would have prevented would have 1355 01:30:05,040 --> 01:30:10,639 Speaker 1: been an alarming trend, a truly alarming trend by teachers 1356 01:30:11,320 --> 01:30:16,320 Speaker 1: of keeping this information from parents. And that's a really 1357 01:30:16,920 --> 01:30:23,120 Speaker 1: really dangerous slippery slope. The idea being if a student, 1358 01:30:23,240 --> 01:30:26,559 Speaker 1: let's say a middle school kid, deeply troubled, comes to 1359 01:30:26,640 --> 01:30:30,320 Speaker 1: the teacher and says, look, my name is no longer Jackson, 1360 01:30:30,520 --> 01:30:33,080 Speaker 1: it's Jasmine. I want to live as a girl, but 1361 01:30:33,840 --> 01:30:37,880 Speaker 1: I'm afraid my dad won't approve of that, So I 1362 01:30:37,960 --> 01:30:40,599 Speaker 1: don't want you to tell my parents what I'm doing 1363 01:30:40,640 --> 01:30:46,919 Speaker 1: at school. The teacher or the school would be currently 1364 01:30:47,360 --> 01:30:51,760 Speaker 1: they're empowered to keep that information from parents. Now, As 1365 01:30:51,800 --> 01:30:57,439 Speaker 1: I said, transgender ideology, gender dysphoria is a serious mental illness, 1366 01:30:57,920 --> 01:31:01,559 Speaker 1: and it is very strongly linked to other serious mental illness, 1367 01:31:02,080 --> 01:31:05,599 Speaker 1: clinical and chronic depression, schizophrenia, all that it is a 1368 01:31:05,760 --> 01:31:10,120 Speaker 1: sign that somebody is not mentally healthy. That is not 1369 01:31:10,280 --> 01:31:13,799 Speaker 1: me being transphobic, that is me being medically accurate. 1370 01:31:13,920 --> 01:31:16,920 Speaker 2: And this is the thing that absolutely just crushes me. 1371 01:31:18,520 --> 01:31:23,320 Speaker 1: People think that when you say, hey, this is evidence 1372 01:31:23,360 --> 01:31:25,760 Speaker 1: of mental illness, you're just being mean. 1373 01:31:26,000 --> 01:31:28,160 Speaker 2: No. Clearly, what's going The. 1374 01:31:28,160 --> 01:31:32,240 Speaker 1: Treatment of transgender ideology and genderness for you right has 1375 01:31:32,280 --> 01:31:35,960 Speaker 1: not working. Forty one percent of people who identify as 1376 01:31:35,960 --> 01:31:40,880 Speaker 1: transgender kill themselves commit suicide. Clearly, what we're doing right 1377 01:31:40,920 --> 01:31:44,759 Speaker 1: now is not working, because what we're doing is mental 1378 01:31:44,800 --> 01:31:49,360 Speaker 1: health practitioners who should know better but are instead beholden 1379 01:31:49,479 --> 01:31:52,960 Speaker 1: to this liberal orthodoxy where they have to tell patients, Okay, 1380 01:31:52,960 --> 01:31:56,200 Speaker 1: if you just change your gender, everything will be fine. 1381 01:31:56,280 --> 01:31:59,280 Speaker 1: You'll be happy, you will find the piece that you've 1382 01:31:59,280 --> 01:32:01,840 Speaker 1: been looking for all your life. It doesn't work like that. 1383 01:32:01,880 --> 01:32:04,719 Speaker 1: You have to treat the brain. You have to treat 1384 01:32:04,760 --> 01:32:07,479 Speaker 1: the brain chemistry, you have to treat, you have to talk, 1385 01:32:07,560 --> 01:32:11,760 Speaker 1: you have to do psychotherapy. Oftentimes this involves intense psychotherapy. Now, 1386 01:32:11,800 --> 01:32:15,560 Speaker 1: if you're an adult and you're undergoing this intense psychotherapy 1387 01:32:15,600 --> 01:32:17,680 Speaker 1: and your doctor, who is responsible and not just some 1388 01:32:17,880 --> 01:32:21,720 Speaker 1: liberal goon, says all right, I think as part of 1389 01:32:21,760 --> 01:32:24,719 Speaker 1: the treatment you actually would be happier living as a woman, 1390 01:32:25,920 --> 01:32:29,920 Speaker 1: then go and do so. Children cannot make that decision 1391 01:32:30,040 --> 01:32:36,360 Speaker 1: for themselves. Teachers cannot and should not keep information that 1392 01:32:36,400 --> 01:32:41,120 Speaker 1: would indicate that little middle school Jasmine slash Jackson is 1393 01:32:41,160 --> 01:32:45,120 Speaker 1: not mentally healthy. If all of a sudden, my kid 1394 01:32:45,400 --> 01:32:50,840 Speaker 1: at school was telling his teacher say, you know, I 1395 01:32:50,880 --> 01:32:55,000 Speaker 1: don't know, I just really think I want to get 1396 01:32:55,000 --> 01:32:59,240 Speaker 1: involved in drugs. I just think, you know, I'm smarter, 1397 01:32:59,400 --> 01:33:05,599 Speaker 1: I'm better when I'm smoking marijuana. In what universe would 1398 01:33:05,640 --> 01:33:08,559 Speaker 1: the teacher think it would be acceptable not to tell 1399 01:33:08,600 --> 01:33:11,680 Speaker 1: me that my kid just confided in them of that. 1400 01:33:13,920 --> 01:33:17,040 Speaker 1: Or if let's say my kid comes to them. That's 1401 01:33:17,720 --> 01:33:20,880 Speaker 1: an out there example because it involves the illegal drug use. 1402 01:33:21,040 --> 01:33:25,880 Speaker 1: If my kid came to them and said, you know what, 1403 01:33:25,960 --> 01:33:30,479 Speaker 1: I'm just really not happy with who I am. I 1404 01:33:30,600 --> 01:33:36,519 Speaker 1: just really feel like I can't ever be myself. I 1405 01:33:36,560 --> 01:33:38,800 Speaker 1: don't ever feel like I belong. I feel like a 1406 01:33:38,840 --> 01:33:43,360 Speaker 1: complete outcast. I'm just having these crazy feelings where it 1407 01:33:43,400 --> 01:33:46,280 Speaker 1: would be better if I just wasn't here nothing about gender, 1408 01:33:46,800 --> 01:33:49,920 Speaker 1: but saying fundamentally the same thing right that I don't 1409 01:33:49,960 --> 01:33:53,040 Speaker 1: fit in that I don't like who I am, nothing 1410 01:33:53,080 --> 01:33:59,439 Speaker 1: involving gender. If the kids teacher or another school and 1411 01:33:59,520 --> 01:34:03,240 Speaker 1: play hurt that and did not tell me, by God, 1412 01:34:03,920 --> 01:34:06,679 Speaker 1: get out of my way, because the wrath of mister 1413 01:34:06,800 --> 01:34:13,360 Speaker 1: and missus O'Donnell would scorch an entire world. Why is 1414 01:34:13,400 --> 01:34:16,120 Speaker 1: it the kid says the magical thing, Well, I think 1415 01:34:16,120 --> 01:34:19,160 Speaker 1: I'm transgender, and then you feel like, well, mom and 1416 01:34:19,240 --> 01:34:21,400 Speaker 1: dad might not approve of that. So we're going to 1417 01:34:21,479 --> 01:34:25,639 Speaker 1: keep secrets with the kid. Not only that, we're going 1418 01:34:25,680 --> 01:34:29,479 Speaker 1: to keep secrets about sexuality, about something having to do 1419 01:34:29,520 --> 01:34:30,960 Speaker 1: with the child's sexuality. 1420 01:34:30,960 --> 01:34:33,200 Speaker 2: We're gonna keep that secret. 1421 01:34:34,040 --> 01:34:37,920 Speaker 1: Is there anything good that has ever come from an 1422 01:34:37,960 --> 01:34:43,240 Speaker 1: adult and a child keeping a secret about sexuality from 1423 01:34:43,240 --> 01:34:44,200 Speaker 1: the child's parents. 1424 01:34:44,439 --> 01:34:45,920 Speaker 2: No, absolutely not. 1425 01:34:47,600 --> 01:34:52,439 Speaker 1: But that bill was vetoed, so now you can still 1426 01:34:52,479 --> 01:34:57,599 Speaker 1: have that level of secrecy. SB four h five, final 1427 01:34:57,680 --> 01:35:01,720 Speaker 1: bill veto today. Senate Bill four would have created a 1428 01:35:01,760 --> 01:35:05,920 Speaker 1: civil cause of action allowing those who underwent gender transition 1429 01:35:06,160 --> 01:35:11,920 Speaker 1: procedures as minors to sue providers for physical, psychological, emotional, 1430 01:35:12,040 --> 01:35:18,000 Speaker 1: or physiological injuries. Right now, if you say want to detransition, 1431 01:35:18,040 --> 01:35:23,439 Speaker 1: if you're just not happy with your transition surgery, you 1432 01:35:23,520 --> 01:35:27,360 Speaker 1: can't sue. There is no cause of action for you 1433 01:35:27,439 --> 01:35:34,040 Speaker 1: to sue the quack that ripped off or you know, whats. 1434 01:35:35,320 --> 01:35:39,479 Speaker 2: That. All of this is just ludicrous to me, and. 1435 01:35:39,400 --> 01:35:43,719 Speaker 1: I think most people who have some modicum of common 1436 01:35:43,760 --> 01:35:49,520 Speaker 1: sense say to themselves, what what is this is craziness, 1437 01:35:50,040 --> 01:35:51,960 Speaker 1: all right. When we come back, we're gonna have some 1438 01:35:52,040 --> 01:35:56,799 Speaker 1: fun with this, folks. Today was the trans Day of Visibility. Okay, 1439 01:35:58,080 --> 01:36:03,160 Speaker 1: forty one percent of the entire year is covered by. 1440 01:36:03,520 --> 01:36:05,639 Speaker 2: LGBTQ themed days. 1441 01:36:05,840 --> 01:36:09,320 Speaker 1: How can you claim not to be visible if forty 1442 01:36:09,400 --> 01:36:11,000 Speaker 1: one percent of the year. 1443 01:36:10,920 --> 01:36:11,960 Speaker 2: Is dedicated to you. 1444 01:36:12,080 --> 01:36:14,439 Speaker 1: We'll get into that when the Dan o'donald Show comes 1445 01:36:14,479 --> 01:36:18,800 Speaker 1: back in just three minutes. Welcome back Dan o'donald's show. 1446 01:36:18,880 --> 01:36:23,639 Speaker 1: On this the Transgender Day of Visibility. You might remember 1447 01:36:23,760 --> 01:36:28,920 Speaker 1: two years ago President Biden, then President Biden in twenty 1448 01:36:28,960 --> 01:36:33,160 Speaker 1: twenty four, declared March thirty first, Sunday, March thirty first, 1449 01:36:33,160 --> 01:36:37,040 Speaker 1: the trans Day of Visibility, big proclamation. Yeah, it also 1450 01:36:37,240 --> 01:36:41,080 Speaker 1: happened to be Easter Sunday, and a lot of people 1451 01:36:41,200 --> 01:36:47,240 Speaker 1: then first realize just how insane the gender days of 1452 01:36:47,320 --> 01:36:55,040 Speaker 1: the year were. Because while LBGTQ plus minus ampersand dollar 1453 01:36:55,160 --> 01:37:00,360 Speaker 1: sign pound sign at sign advocates mark the International trans 1454 01:37:00,680 --> 01:37:04,720 Speaker 1: Day of Visibility, it should be pointed out that this 1455 01:37:04,760 --> 01:37:08,600 Speaker 1: should not be confused with the Transgender Day of Remembrance. 1456 01:37:08,640 --> 01:37:11,680 Speaker 1: You see, that's part of the Transgender Week of Remembrance 1457 01:37:11,720 --> 01:37:16,080 Speaker 1: in November. It should also today Transgender Day of Visibility. 1458 01:37:16,160 --> 01:37:19,960 Speaker 1: Not be confused with International Day against Homophobia, bi Phobia 1459 01:37:20,439 --> 01:37:25,360 Speaker 1: and Transphobia in May or International Drag Day in July. 1460 01:37:26,800 --> 01:37:32,760 Speaker 1: There is an entire week and what four separate days 1461 01:37:32,760 --> 01:37:37,559 Speaker 1: dedicated to the transgender community. Meanwhile, we have one day 1462 01:37:37,680 --> 01:37:42,800 Speaker 1: dedicated to veterans Veterans Day and another day dedicated to 1463 01:37:43,120 --> 01:37:49,519 Speaker 1: Deceased Veterans Memorial Day, But the trans community apparently has 1464 01:37:50,000 --> 01:37:57,000 Speaker 1: what five times that? There are a shocking comical one 1465 01:37:57,080 --> 01:38:01,960 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty plus days of the calendar year dedicated 1466 01:38:02,000 --> 01:38:09,479 Speaker 1: to gay and transgender causes. That is excessive, it would 1467 01:38:09,600 --> 01:38:15,800 Speaker 1: seem you see, the year starts in January with No 1468 01:38:16,080 --> 01:38:19,559 Speaker 1: Name Calling Week now that's held in schools across the 1469 01:38:19,600 --> 01:38:27,000 Speaker 1: country to address bullying of LGBTQ students. After that, the 1470 01:38:27,280 --> 01:38:33,479 Speaker 1: entire month of February is lgbt History Month. That includes 1471 01:38:33,640 --> 01:38:38,599 Speaker 1: National Black HIV and AIDS Awareness Day on February seventh, 1472 01:38:39,680 --> 01:38:44,360 Speaker 1: a Romantic Spectrum Awareness Week the week after Valentine's Day 1473 01:38:44,439 --> 01:38:48,640 Speaker 1: and HIV is not a crime Awareness Day on February 1474 01:38:48,680 --> 01:38:49,280 Speaker 1: twenty eighth. 1475 01:38:49,400 --> 01:38:51,000 Speaker 2: Yes that's really a thing, and yes I. 1476 01:38:51,000 --> 01:38:56,000 Speaker 1: Did notice that right after Valentine's Day, a Romantic Spectrum 1477 01:38:56,040 --> 01:39:01,320 Speaker 1: Awareness Week. That's people who I guess don't like anybody, 1478 01:39:01,800 --> 01:39:06,240 Speaker 1: They just want to be alone. A romantic spectrum. It's 1479 01:39:06,280 --> 01:39:09,559 Speaker 1: apparently a spectrum your a romance. 1480 01:39:10,560 --> 01:39:10,800 Speaker 2: Now. 1481 01:39:10,840 --> 01:39:15,439 Speaker 1: After the entire month of February, which is lgbt History Month, 1482 01:39:15,479 --> 01:39:20,719 Speaker 1: the entire month of March is Bisexual Health Awareness Month 1483 01:39:21,920 --> 01:39:28,760 Speaker 1: that includes National LGBTQ Health Awareness Week and then culminates 1484 01:39:28,920 --> 01:39:33,080 Speaker 1: with the Transgender Day of Visibility today March thirty first. 1485 01:39:33,120 --> 01:39:35,599 Speaker 1: So how many people raise your hands in the data 1486 01:39:35,600 --> 01:39:38,960 Speaker 1: O'donnald Show listening audience if you knew that we were 1487 01:39:39,000 --> 01:39:44,560 Speaker 1: in Bisexual Awareness Month and that we were just completing 1488 01:39:44,640 --> 01:39:50,880 Speaker 1: National LGBTQ Health Awareness Month, I don't see any hands now. 1489 01:39:50,960 --> 01:39:55,040 Speaker 1: April is the first month in three months not to 1490 01:39:55,479 --> 01:39:59,800 Speaker 1: be designated as an LGBTQ themed month, but it does 1491 01:40:00,000 --> 01:40:06,160 Speaker 1: feature International a Sexuality Day on April seventh and Lesbian 1492 01:40:06,320 --> 01:40:15,280 Speaker 1: Visibility Day on April twenty sixth, So a Asexuality Day, Remember, 1493 01:40:15,479 --> 01:40:20,200 Speaker 1: is separate from a Romantic Spectrum Awareness Week, which is 1494 01:40:20,240 --> 01:40:23,200 Speaker 1: back in February. If you didn't have a chance to 1495 01:40:23,280 --> 01:40:28,559 Speaker 1: put out your A Romantic spectrum candles that week, don't worry. 1496 01:40:28,680 --> 01:40:31,719 Speaker 1: You still have a chance on a Sexuality Day coming 1497 01:40:31,800 --> 01:40:36,479 Speaker 1: up in seven days April sixth, and if you miss that, 1498 01:40:36,560 --> 01:40:40,599 Speaker 1: well then you can still celebrate Lesbian Visibility Day April 1499 01:40:40,640 --> 01:40:45,759 Speaker 1: twenty sixth. Calendar then flips to May. LBGTQ community marks 1500 01:40:45,800 --> 01:40:51,760 Speaker 1: the International Day against Homophobia, Biphobia, and Transphobia May seventeenth, 1501 01:40:52,479 --> 01:40:57,360 Speaker 1: a Gender Pride Day on May nineteenth, Harvey Milk Day 1502 01:40:57,600 --> 01:41:02,880 Speaker 1: on May twenty second, and pan Sexual and pan Romantic 1503 01:41:03,040 --> 01:41:08,479 Speaker 1: Awareness Day on May twenty fourth. I'm just glad the 1504 01:41:08,520 --> 01:41:12,639 Speaker 1: pan sexuals have their own day, because we really would 1505 01:41:12,640 --> 01:41:16,160 Speaker 1: not want to just you know, lump them in with 1506 01:41:16,160 --> 01:41:18,800 Speaker 1: with Pride month. They need their own day, the pan 1507 01:41:18,920 --> 01:41:24,320 Speaker 1: sexuals and the pan Romantic Day and the agenders. So 1508 01:41:24,439 --> 01:41:29,960 Speaker 1: if you have no gender, buy phobia or whatever day 1509 01:41:30,520 --> 01:41:35,799 Speaker 1: agend this is, this is seriously defies parody. This honest 1510 01:41:35,800 --> 01:41:38,799 Speaker 1: to goodness defies parody. 1511 01:41:39,000 --> 01:41:39,479 Speaker 2: Is dead. 1512 01:41:40,120 --> 01:41:45,200 Speaker 1: And the LGBTQ community killed it because I could. I 1513 01:41:45,280 --> 01:41:49,760 Speaker 1: could not come up with a calendar to satirize or 1514 01:41:49,840 --> 01:41:53,120 Speaker 1: make fun of all of these insane days better than 1515 01:41:53,120 --> 01:41:57,520 Speaker 1: the one that actually exists. A Gender Pride Day, May nineteenth, 1516 01:41:58,880 --> 01:42:03,120 Speaker 1: agender instead of one gender or multiple gen you have 1517 01:42:03,240 --> 01:42:08,280 Speaker 1: no genders Okay, June is the big one Pride month, parades, celebrations, 1518 01:42:08,360 --> 01:42:11,360 Speaker 1: and who could forget all of the drag shows for 1519 01:42:11,600 --> 01:42:16,240 Speaker 1: very young children for a full thirty days. In July, 1520 01:42:17,200 --> 01:42:22,280 Speaker 1: you've got International non Binary People's Day that is apparently 1521 01:42:22,360 --> 01:42:27,719 Speaker 1: different than a gender So non binary means you don't 1522 01:42:27,760 --> 01:42:30,479 Speaker 1: have a binary gender agender, I guess means you have 1523 01:42:30,640 --> 01:42:35,960 Speaker 1: no gender. Non Binary People's Day July fourteenth. Two days later, 1524 01:42:36,040 --> 01:42:40,120 Speaker 1: it is International Drag Day on July sixteenth. Now this 1525 01:42:40,240 --> 01:42:42,640 Speaker 1: is different than the Trans Day of Visibility or the 1526 01:42:42,640 --> 01:42:45,240 Speaker 1: Trans Awareness Day of the Trans Day of Remembrance. 1527 01:42:45,520 --> 01:42:46,439 Speaker 2: This is drag Day. 1528 01:42:46,479 --> 01:42:48,880 Speaker 1: This is just for people who like to dress up 1529 01:42:49,240 --> 01:42:51,880 Speaker 1: as women and put on drag shows, of course, only 1530 01:42:51,960 --> 01:42:54,640 Speaker 1: for young children. We never have any drag shows at 1531 01:42:54,680 --> 01:42:58,000 Speaker 1: the Senior Center, never have any drag shows at the VA, 1532 01:42:58,439 --> 01:43:02,439 Speaker 1: only have drag shows at the high school, and we 1533 01:43:02,520 --> 01:43:07,320 Speaker 1: only have a drag Queen Story Hour at the pre 1534 01:43:07,560 --> 01:43:12,439 Speaker 1: K Kids Library section, never have it. We never have 1535 01:43:13,600 --> 01:43:17,639 Speaker 1: the drag queens go to like the burn unit at 1536 01:43:17,640 --> 01:43:18,280 Speaker 1: a hospital. 1537 01:43:18,320 --> 01:43:21,240 Speaker 2: Why is it that they only want to read to children? 1538 01:43:22,760 --> 01:43:25,000 Speaker 2: Very very interesting? 1539 01:43:26,800 --> 01:43:30,639 Speaker 1: Rather remarkably, there is only one month of the year 1540 01:43:30,680 --> 01:43:35,439 Speaker 1: that does not have a single LGBTQ week or day. 1541 01:43:35,760 --> 01:43:37,040 Speaker 2: August has nothing. 1542 01:43:37,080 --> 01:43:41,439 Speaker 1: There is one reprieve from all of the gay and 1543 01:43:41,600 --> 01:43:47,520 Speaker 1: trans days, and that is in August. September sees Bisexual 1544 01:43:47,640 --> 01:43:50,960 Speaker 1: Awareness Week. That is the week of September twenty third, 1545 01:43:51,640 --> 01:43:57,040 Speaker 1: and it is followed almost immediately by LGBT History Month 1546 01:43:57,360 --> 01:43:58,520 Speaker 1: in October. 1547 01:43:59,640 --> 01:44:03,600 Speaker 2: So wait a second, we had. 1548 01:44:05,920 --> 01:44:12,160 Speaker 1: Lg What are there two different LGBT History months? It 1549 01:44:12,439 --> 01:44:18,760 Speaker 1: certainly seems so. We've got International Lesbian Day on October eighth. Now, 1550 01:44:18,800 --> 01:44:23,479 Speaker 1: remember this is different than Lesbian Visibility Day on April 1551 01:44:23,520 --> 01:44:28,679 Speaker 1: twenty sixth, So April twenty sixth lesbians celebrate being visible, 1552 01:44:29,280 --> 01:44:35,640 Speaker 1: and then on October eighth, lesbians celebrate being lesbians. October 1553 01:44:35,680 --> 01:44:42,400 Speaker 1: eleventh National Coming Out Day, so the aseexuals are back 1554 01:44:42,439 --> 01:44:47,360 Speaker 1: at it. Asexual Awareness Week takes place in late October. 1555 01:44:47,960 --> 01:44:52,240 Speaker 1: Remember right after Valentine's Day there was the a Romantic 1556 01:44:52,280 --> 01:44:57,679 Speaker 1: Spectrum Awareness Week. But then we have a sexual week 1557 01:44:58,280 --> 01:45:03,000 Speaker 1: Asexual Awareness Week in late October. Then there is Intersex 1558 01:45:03,160 --> 01:45:11,400 Speaker 1: Awareness Day on October twenty sixth. November has Transgender Awareness Week, 1559 01:45:12,240 --> 01:45:16,519 Speaker 1: so that includes the Trans Day of Remembrance November twentieth, 1560 01:45:16,720 --> 01:45:20,400 Speaker 1: So there is the International Day of Transgender Visibility, which 1561 01:45:20,439 --> 01:45:24,440 Speaker 1: is today, Transgender Awareness Week, the trans Day of Remembrance, 1562 01:45:25,120 --> 01:45:29,160 Speaker 1: all to celebrate the transgender community. The year then wraps 1563 01:45:29,240 --> 01:45:33,360 Speaker 1: up in December with World AIDS Day on December first 1564 01:45:34,040 --> 01:45:39,760 Speaker 1: and Pan Sexual Pride Day on December eighth. That totals 1565 01:45:39,800 --> 01:45:43,679 Speaker 1: more than one hundred and fifty days of a three 1566 01:45:43,840 --> 01:45:50,479 Speaker 1: hundred and sixty five day year dedicated to LGBTQ pride, 1567 01:45:51,600 --> 01:45:56,840 Speaker 1: awareness or remembrance. How could anyone not be aware of 1568 01:45:56,880 --> 01:46:00,160 Speaker 1: this community when forty one percent of each year is 1569 01:46:00,200 --> 01:46:04,640 Speaker 1: spent celebrating it regardless? Regardless, if you haven't already, be 1570 01:46:04,720 --> 01:46:08,280 Speaker 1: sure to mark Transgender Day of Visibility Day today since 1571 01:46:08,320 --> 01:46:12,400 Speaker 1: you will not have another chance to honor something related 1572 01:46:12,439 --> 01:46:17,120 Speaker 1: to sexuality for a full seven days before Asexual Awareness 1573 01:46:17,200 --> 01:46:20,760 Speaker 1: Day comes up on April sixth. You're listening to the 1574 01:46:20,840 --> 01:46:29,439 Speaker 1: Dan o'donald Show. We'll be right back in just a second. Well, 1575 01:46:29,520 --> 01:46:33,280 Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, I regret to inform you that teen 1576 01:46:33,720 --> 01:46:38,439 Speaker 1: Takeovers are back. Welcome back to the Dan o'donald Show 1577 01:46:38,479 --> 01:46:42,800 Speaker 1: for a second straight day. A teen Takeover event in 1578 01:46:42,880 --> 01:46:47,479 Speaker 1: Milwaukee that was advertised on social media brought chaos along 1579 01:46:47,560 --> 01:46:51,760 Speaker 1: with it gunshots rang out during Monday night's event at 1580 01:46:51,920 --> 01:46:55,320 Speaker 1: Moody Park. Now, what exactly is a teen takeover? It's 1581 01:46:55,439 --> 01:46:59,800 Speaker 1: exactly what it sounds like. There's advertisements that go out 1582 01:46:59,840 --> 01:47:02,280 Speaker 1: on social media Snapchat. 1583 01:47:01,720 --> 01:47:03,200 Speaker 2: TikTok and the like. 1584 01:47:03,320 --> 01:47:08,160 Speaker 1: No, the young'ins aren't using Facebook and X like us 1585 01:47:08,400 --> 01:47:09,479 Speaker 1: unks are. 1586 01:47:10,479 --> 01:47:11,040 Speaker 2: Do you know? 1587 01:47:11,080 --> 01:47:15,320 Speaker 1: They call us unks older men at least unks like 1588 01:47:15,520 --> 01:47:18,680 Speaker 1: uncle that is the slang term for middle aged man. 1589 01:47:18,720 --> 01:47:21,240 Speaker 1: I kind of embrace it. I like being an unk. 1590 01:47:21,920 --> 01:47:25,439 Speaker 1: My kids both got My sons call me unk. They 1591 01:47:25,520 --> 01:47:29,320 Speaker 1: say I post on social media like an unk, and 1592 01:47:30,000 --> 01:47:32,639 Speaker 1: it's it's supposedly a term of endearment. 1593 01:47:32,840 --> 01:47:33,719 Speaker 2: So unk. 1594 01:47:34,720 --> 01:47:40,280 Speaker 1: Dan will tell you that these are not typically on 1595 01:47:40,800 --> 01:47:46,200 Speaker 1: X or on Facebook. Instagram is used relatively often by kids, 1596 01:47:46,840 --> 01:47:49,360 Speaker 1: but Snapchat is the big one. Snapchat is what they 1597 01:47:49,479 --> 01:47:53,200 Speaker 1: use instead of even Apple I Message or text messaging. 1598 01:47:53,960 --> 01:47:58,360 Speaker 1: They are their entire lives are on Snapchat. I can 1599 01:47:58,400 --> 01:48:02,400 Speaker 1: remember Facebook. It was a big deal when Facebook started 1600 01:48:02,800 --> 01:48:08,439 Speaker 1: direct messaging. That was like seven years after Facebook first 1601 01:48:08,439 --> 01:48:08,920 Speaker 1: became a thing. 1602 01:48:09,000 --> 01:48:11,320 Speaker 2: Maybe it wasn't that long, but it was years after 1603 01:48:11,439 --> 01:48:12,599 Speaker 2: Facebook first launch. 1604 01:48:12,640 --> 01:48:16,160 Speaker 1: And remember Facebook was originally just open to people with 1605 01:48:16,240 --> 01:48:19,840 Speaker 1: a college ID. It was I mean, I think everybody's 1606 01:48:19,840 --> 01:48:23,439 Speaker 1: seen the social network, but it was originally designed to 1607 01:48:23,840 --> 01:48:27,320 Speaker 1: just provide a name to the faces that you would 1608 01:48:27,360 --> 01:48:33,439 Speaker 1: see on your college campus. But Snapchat is how the 1609 01:48:33,560 --> 01:48:36,719 Speaker 1: kids all message each other various Snapchat groups and stuff, 1610 01:48:36,720 --> 01:48:42,080 Speaker 1: and this is how these sorts of events are planned well. 1611 01:48:42,240 --> 01:48:46,760 Speaker 1: The second event after the just utter chaos at Bayshore 1612 01:48:46,880 --> 01:48:51,120 Speaker 1: Mall on Sunday afternoon was at Moody Park in Milwaukee, 1613 01:48:51,200 --> 01:48:55,240 Speaker 1: and Kendall Keyes, who was a reporter for Channel twelve 1614 01:48:55,400 --> 01:48:58,360 Speaker 1: in Milwaukee, she happened to be at the park at 1615 01:48:58,439 --> 01:49:01,920 Speaker 1: the time. She heard approximately ten shots fired near twenty 1616 01:49:01,960 --> 01:49:06,280 Speaker 1: fourth and Burlei. She said, you could see shellcasings visible 1617 01:49:06,280 --> 01:49:10,599 Speaker 1: on the front steps of the nearby Golden Center. There were, 1618 01:49:10,680 --> 01:49:13,679 Speaker 1: of course, a whole ton of fights that broke out 1619 01:49:13,760 --> 01:49:16,640 Speaker 1: in the crowd before the gunfire. This from the Milwaukee 1620 01:49:16,640 --> 01:49:19,679 Speaker 1: Police Department Sheriff's deputies who were on the scene because 1621 01:49:19,680 --> 01:49:22,320 Speaker 1: of course this was a park and they have jurisdiction 1622 01:49:22,400 --> 01:49:24,559 Speaker 1: over the parks. They arrested at least one person at 1623 01:49:24,560 --> 01:49:29,639 Speaker 1: the scene. Investigators have not immediately released any information on injuries. 1624 01:49:29,720 --> 01:49:35,400 Speaker 1: The story from the Heartland Post, Heartlandpost dot Com and 1625 01:49:35,800 --> 01:49:41,840 Speaker 1: this follows just a chaotic, massive, chaotic gathering at Bayshore 1626 01:49:41,920 --> 01:49:45,920 Speaker 1: Mall in Glendale, So I guess technically just outside of Milwaukee. 1627 01:49:46,000 --> 01:49:49,479 Speaker 1: Hundreds and hundreds of teenagers. The videos are all over 1628 01:49:49,600 --> 01:49:52,960 Speaker 1: social media, just converged on the mall. A lot of 1629 01:49:53,000 --> 01:49:57,040 Speaker 1: them wearing masks and hoods. They were planning to be 1630 01:49:57,120 --> 01:50:00,240 Speaker 1: up to no good in other words, social media of 1631 01:50:00,280 --> 01:50:03,840 Speaker 1: flyers actually advertising the event. It was it was sort 1632 01:50:03,840 --> 01:50:07,160 Speaker 1: of like how you would advertise for an upcoming concert. 1633 01:50:07,360 --> 01:50:11,080 Speaker 1: They were advertising, Hey, we actually have a photo of 1634 01:50:11,120 --> 01:50:13,960 Speaker 1: that flyer at Heartlandpost dot com if you want to 1635 01:50:14,040 --> 01:50:16,960 Speaker 1: check it out. There were, of course, a whole ton 1636 01:50:17,000 --> 01:50:22,160 Speaker 1: of fights. Can teenagers from Milwaukee's inner city go anywhere 1637 01:50:22,200 --> 01:50:27,439 Speaker 1: without there being massive fights that follow them. Thirteen to 1638 01:50:27,680 --> 01:50:33,400 Speaker 1: fourteen people aged twelve to nineteen were arrested on charges 1639 01:50:33,400 --> 01:50:38,280 Speaker 1: that included disorderly conduct, battery, and resisting arrest. A high 1640 01:50:38,280 --> 01:50:40,720 Speaker 1: school student who was at the event at Bayshore told 1641 01:50:40,800 --> 01:50:43,639 Speaker 1: Kendall Keys, the reporter for Channel twelve, said she saw guns, 1642 01:50:44,080 --> 01:50:48,400 Speaker 1: large crowds, and pepper spray before she took off. Now, 1643 01:50:48,479 --> 01:50:53,280 Speaker 1: community groups, including four to one four Life were present 1644 01:50:53,320 --> 01:50:58,120 Speaker 1: at Moody Park attempting to de escalate tensions. How about 1645 01:50:58,600 --> 01:51:03,400 Speaker 1: instead of de escalating tensions, you stop the tensions from 1646 01:51:03,760 --> 01:51:07,760 Speaker 1: starting in the first place by preventing people from converging 1647 01:51:07,880 --> 01:51:12,920 Speaker 1: in these massive numbers in public spaces. Yes, okay, you 1648 01:51:13,000 --> 01:51:16,479 Speaker 1: do have a right to assemble. When it can be 1649 01:51:16,600 --> 01:51:21,599 Speaker 1: proven that these events are designed to quote, take over 1650 01:51:21,720 --> 01:51:25,400 Speaker 1: a space, you do not have the right to assemble. 1651 01:51:25,479 --> 01:51:31,400 Speaker 1: Remember the first Amendment right to assembly is peaceable assembly. 1652 01:51:31,880 --> 01:51:35,320 Speaker 1: You have the right to peaceably assemble. You do not 1653 01:51:35,479 --> 01:51:38,080 Speaker 1: have the right to go with a whole bunch of 1654 01:51:38,120 --> 01:51:41,200 Speaker 1: your buddies and take over a public space. So in 1655 01:51:41,240 --> 01:51:44,479 Speaker 1: the case of Bayshore Mall, people can't shop there, people 1656 01:51:44,520 --> 01:51:47,040 Speaker 1: can't eat there, people can't enjoy the space. 1657 01:51:47,479 --> 01:51:48,960 Speaker 2: Moody Park, same thing. 1658 01:51:49,040 --> 01:51:52,479 Speaker 1: Monday was absolutely last night was absolutely gorgeous. It's a 1659 01:51:52,479 --> 01:51:56,360 Speaker 1: beautiful day in the Milwaukee area. And why is it? 1660 01:51:56,560 --> 01:51:57,120 Speaker 2: Why is it? 1661 01:51:57,200 --> 01:52:00,600 Speaker 1: Well, I'm on this subject that anytime the ten i'mperture 1662 01:52:01,040 --> 01:52:04,680 Speaker 1: gets above seventy degrees, it gets exceptionally violent. You know 1663 01:52:04,720 --> 01:52:09,799 Speaker 1: the phrase suns out, guns out, It refers to putting 1664 01:52:09,840 --> 01:52:13,120 Speaker 1: out your muscles, dudes going shirtless in the stuff. Well, 1665 01:52:13,200 --> 01:52:18,640 Speaker 1: suns out, guns out is literal in Milwaukee. Remember the 1666 01:52:18,800 --> 01:52:22,519 Speaker 1: first really really nice weekend day a couple of weeks 1667 01:52:22,520 --> 01:52:27,800 Speaker 1: ago brought a deadly triple shooting to Water Street from 1668 01:52:27,880 --> 01:52:30,120 Speaker 1: a thug who was let out of jail. 1669 01:52:30,479 --> 01:52:32,599 Speaker 2: He was given absolutely no jail time. 1670 01:52:32,640 --> 01:52:35,920 Speaker 1: We reported this exclusively here on the Dan O'Donnell show 1671 01:52:35,960 --> 01:52:39,200 Speaker 1: by a Lincoln County judge. He's up in a juvenile 1672 01:52:39,920 --> 01:52:45,559 Speaker 1: lock up at Lincoln Hills and he batters a fellow prisoner. 1673 01:52:46,120 --> 01:52:49,160 Speaker 2: He just severely. He's charged with five felonies. 1674 01:52:49,200 --> 01:52:51,880 Speaker 1: I believe they plead it down to one, even though 1675 01:52:51,880 --> 01:52:54,439 Speaker 1: he's got a felony convision. There was his second felony 1676 01:52:54,479 --> 01:52:58,080 Speaker 1: conviction by the time he turns eighteen years old. This 1677 01:52:58,360 --> 01:53:02,559 Speaker 1: hack leftist judge, who of course is listed on Chris 1678 01:53:02,640 --> 01:53:08,240 Speaker 1: Taylor's Supreme Court page as endorsing Taylor's Supreme Court candidacy. 1679 01:53:08,680 --> 01:53:12,280 Speaker 1: This judge lets the guy out with two years probation. 1680 01:53:12,400 --> 01:53:14,360 Speaker 1: He doesn't spend a single day in jail. He goes 1681 01:53:14,479 --> 01:53:17,400 Speaker 1: right back home to Milwaukee and shoots a man to 1682 01:53:17,520 --> 01:53:20,439 Speaker 1: death and injures an eighteen year old and a nineteen 1683 01:53:20,479 --> 01:53:23,479 Speaker 1: year old in this triple shooting on Water Street. That 1684 01:53:23,960 --> 01:53:27,600 Speaker 1: is what we're dealing with in Wisconsin with these insane 1685 01:53:28,080 --> 01:53:32,720 Speaker 1: leftist judges. But that wasn't the only mass shooting in 1686 01:53:32,880 --> 01:53:37,160 Speaker 1: Milwaukee that day. You had a whole bunch of people 1687 01:53:37,160 --> 01:53:41,360 Speaker 1: getting together argument between people earlier in the day that Saturday. 1688 01:53:41,400 --> 01:53:43,720 Speaker 2: A quintuple shooting. 1689 01:53:43,800 --> 01:53:47,000 Speaker 1: Left a man dead, couple people with serious injuries, four 1690 01:53:47,040 --> 01:53:51,719 Speaker 1: others injured. This is just apparently a thing that happens 1691 01:53:52,960 --> 01:53:57,519 Speaker 1: once again. I will tell you that even though President 1692 01:53:57,520 --> 01:54:03,160 Speaker 1: Trump's cracked down on illegal immigration has absolutely done wonders 1693 01:54:03,640 --> 01:54:07,519 Speaker 1: for the nation's homicide rate, homicide rate dropped in twenty 1694 01:54:07,600 --> 01:54:12,360 Speaker 1: twenty five by the single biggest margin in one hundred 1695 01:54:12,360 --> 01:54:16,439 Speaker 1: and twenty five years. It sounds almost impossible to believe, 1696 01:54:16,439 --> 01:54:20,040 Speaker 1: but it is true since record keeping began in nineteen hundred. 1697 01:54:20,360 --> 01:54:23,519 Speaker 1: Twenty twenty four, last year of Biden to twenty twenty five, 1698 01:54:23,600 --> 01:54:25,920 Speaker 1: first year of Trump saw the single biggest decline in 1699 01:54:25,960 --> 01:54:31,919 Speaker 1: the nation's murder rate in recorded history. Everywhere, it seems, 1700 01:54:32,280 --> 01:54:36,800 Speaker 1: except Milwaukee. While the nation's homicide rate dropped by twenty 1701 01:54:36,880 --> 01:54:42,720 Speaker 1: one percent, Milwaukee's homicide rate rose by eight percent. Why 1702 01:54:43,200 --> 01:54:49,760 Speaker 1: because of permissive policies that allow these team takeovers to happen. Look, 1703 01:54:49,840 --> 01:54:54,800 Speaker 1: I can understand Glendale got taken by surprise Bay Shore 1704 01:54:54,880 --> 01:54:57,040 Speaker 1: Mall that kind of came out of nowhere. Nobody saw 1705 01:54:57,040 --> 01:54:59,960 Speaker 1: it coming. Well, it's spring break. Milwaukee public schools off 1706 01:55:00,120 --> 01:55:04,160 Speaker 1: this week. Most I think of the area's schools are 1707 01:55:04,240 --> 01:55:07,520 Speaker 1: off for spring break. Now you know it's coming. Now 1708 01:55:07,560 --> 01:55:11,400 Speaker 1: you know these things are being planned. And when detectives, 1709 01:55:11,440 --> 01:55:14,240 Speaker 1: when investigators with the police department see that they have 1710 01:55:14,360 --> 01:55:18,040 Speaker 1: don't just let them happen. Have a massive police force 1711 01:55:18,600 --> 01:55:21,400 Speaker 1: just waiting for the kids to show up. Guess what, 1712 01:55:21,880 --> 01:55:24,840 Speaker 1: They're not going to show up because if they see 1713 01:55:24,880 --> 01:55:27,440 Speaker 1: a whole bunch of police officers, they're not going to 1714 01:55:27,440 --> 01:55:31,240 Speaker 1: try anything because of the universal but not believed in 1715 01:55:31,360 --> 01:55:36,720 Speaker 1: liberal circles, truth that a visible presence of police officers 1716 01:55:36,880 --> 01:55:40,320 Speaker 1: absolutely does deter crime. Do you know where we are 1717 01:55:40,400 --> 01:55:43,960 Speaker 1: seeing that work in real time and have for almost 1718 01:55:44,040 --> 01:55:44,959 Speaker 1: a year now. 1719 01:55:45,520 --> 01:55:46,400 Speaker 2: Washington, d C. 1720 01:55:47,080 --> 01:55:52,520 Speaker 1: Amidst all of the liberal squealing about using National Guard 1721 01:55:52,600 --> 01:55:56,280 Speaker 1: troops and other federal agents on the streets of Washington, 1722 01:55:56,400 --> 01:56:00,560 Speaker 1: d C. It has been an unmitigated success in DC 1723 01:56:00,720 --> 01:56:02,400 Speaker 1: A whole bunch of times. I went to the White 1724 01:56:02,440 --> 01:56:04,920 Speaker 1: House three times last year, and let me tell you 1725 01:56:05,400 --> 01:56:08,400 Speaker 1: the difference from the first two times I went in 1726 01:56:08,520 --> 01:56:11,440 Speaker 1: the winter, in the spring, and the third time I 1727 01:56:11,480 --> 01:56:14,960 Speaker 1: went immediately after the deployment of those federal troops. It's 1728 01:56:14,960 --> 01:56:18,080 Speaker 1: been totally different. I've been to Washington d C. Boy oh, 1729 01:56:18,080 --> 01:56:22,600 Speaker 1: boyd tons of times in my life work related leisure trips. 1730 01:56:22,640 --> 01:56:25,320 Speaker 2: I love Washington d C. It's one of my favorite cities. 1731 01:56:26,880 --> 01:56:31,720 Speaker 1: I have never seen it that peaceful or that fun, 1732 01:56:32,280 --> 01:56:35,480 Speaker 1: that just light spirited and just people were out on 1733 01:56:35,520 --> 01:56:38,760 Speaker 1: the National Mall having a great time. Trump cleaned up 1734 01:56:38,840 --> 01:56:42,960 Speaker 1: that city because of the visible police presence. If I 1735 01:56:43,040 --> 01:56:45,960 Speaker 1: were the mayor of Milwaukee, if I were the mayor 1736 01:56:46,000 --> 01:56:49,160 Speaker 1: of any crime ridden street, I would want that exact 1737 01:56:49,320 --> 01:56:51,800 Speaker 1: thing to happen in my streets. 1738 01:56:53,040 --> 01:56:53,880 Speaker 2: I would welcome. 1739 01:56:53,960 --> 01:56:58,720 Speaker 1: Now, Yes, I know possecomma tatis prohibits federal law enforcement, 1740 01:57:00,320 --> 01:57:03,000 Speaker 1: the enforcement of federal laws by soldiers. You can't have 1741 01:57:03,080 --> 01:57:05,000 Speaker 1: soldiers patrolling the streets. 1742 01:57:05,160 --> 01:57:05,840 Speaker 2: Washington, d C. 1743 01:57:06,040 --> 01:57:09,400 Speaker 1: Is separate because it is actually a city that is 1744 01:57:09,560 --> 01:57:14,839 Speaker 1: run by Congress. Per the Constitution, Congress actually delegates. Congress 1745 01:57:14,840 --> 01:57:19,000 Speaker 1: actually allows the government of Washington, d C. There to 1746 01:57:19,040 --> 01:57:21,000 Speaker 1: be a mayor's office, there to be a city council. 1747 01:57:21,240 --> 01:57:26,560 Speaker 1: Congress has ultimately responsibility and wouldn't you know, very quietly 1748 01:57:27,560 --> 01:57:31,640 Speaker 1: Democrats in Congress and the Democrat mayor Muriel Bowser have 1749 01:57:31,720 --> 01:57:35,560 Speaker 1: said yes, yes, the occupation of Washington, d C. Which 1750 01:57:35,680 --> 01:57:40,320 Speaker 1: was supposedly so terrible, it can continue for an extended 1751 01:57:40,360 --> 01:57:45,560 Speaker 1: period of time because it's working. It's working visible police presence, 1752 01:57:45,680 --> 01:57:49,880 Speaker 1: visible sheriff's deputy presidence, if you need visible presence by 1753 01:57:49,960 --> 01:57:55,000 Speaker 1: state law enforcement officials. Shut this stuff down before anyone 1754 01:57:55,160 --> 01:58:00,920 Speaker 1: else gets hurt in these disgusting team takeovers flies when. 1755 01:58:00,760 --> 01:58:01,680 Speaker 2: You're having fun. 1756 01:58:02,240 --> 01:58:06,360 Speaker 1: Really no time left here on The Dano donald Show 1757 01:58:06,800 --> 01:58:10,280 Speaker 1: to say anything other than thank you so much for 1758 01:58:10,400 --> 01:58:13,640 Speaker 1: listening today.
