1 00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:05,120 Speaker 1: It's Night Side with Dan Ray. I'm WBS Costin's new 2 00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:06,640 Speaker 1: radio or We're going. 3 00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:09,639 Speaker 2: To change our focus just a little bit here, and 4 00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:14,280 Speaker 2: I want to get more of you involved in the conversation. 5 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:20,959 Speaker 2: I think as I've watched President Trump in the last 6 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:26,600 Speaker 2: few months engage in so many circumstances. 7 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:28,240 Speaker 3: As a matter of. 8 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:33,279 Speaker 2: Fact, some of them I've approved of. Some of them 9 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 2: I have disapproved of, but which is my right as 10 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,479 Speaker 2: simply not a talk show host, but as an American citizen. 11 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:42,960 Speaker 2: I think that there are things that he's done which 12 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 2: were well, which were very well, and we can talk 13 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:46,960 Speaker 2: about those, but I think you know how I feel. 14 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:51,480 Speaker 2: At the same time, he has engaged in a lot 15 00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:58,960 Speaker 2: of initiatives which I'll say are unprecedented. That's a relatively 16 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 2: neutral word, unprecedented. So for example, if you think about 17 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 2: the tariffs which were announced on Liberation Day on April second, 18 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 2: I think they originally had its scheduled April first, it 19 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 2: was April second, and there was a lot of adverse 20 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 2: reaction from the stock market. The stock market took a 21 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 2: huge hit, huge hit immediately. It was down about twenty percent, 22 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,399 Speaker 2: which is close to getting a market to the point 23 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 2: of a bear market. But it came back. It came back. 24 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 2: It took two or three or four weeks to come 25 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 2: back fully, but it came back. In the meantime, he 26 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 2: got involved in these conversations with Iran and they didn't 27 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 2: go very well, and he seemed to have some patience, 28 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 2: and then he gave him a couple of deadlines. Those 29 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 2: deadlines passed, and then he sent the American self bombers 30 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 2: over to wipe out their nuclear program by hitting the 31 00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 2: mountains where all of that fissionable materials were buried deep 32 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 2: under rocks. And there was a lot of adverse reaction 33 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 2: to that initially, but guess what, I think that worked 34 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:12,959 Speaker 2: out pretty well now. 35 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 3: Conversely, there's there's a lot of controversy going on with 36 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 3: the not the border. 37 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 2: I think virtually everybody has looked at what he has 38 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 2: done in terms of tightening the border and has said 39 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,079 Speaker 2: they agree. I even watched an interview with the Governor 40 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 2: of Illinois today in which he seemed to agree on 41 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:34,120 Speaker 2: on that. The tightening of the border, the reassertion of 42 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 2: our control over our southern and I assume our northern border. 43 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:45,639 Speaker 2: But uh, the the ice surge has generated a lot 44 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 2: of controversy. There have been, uh, you know, some pretty 45 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 2: ugly incidents that we have seen. We've we've watched the 46 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,360 Speaker 2: ice officers do what they feel they have to do 47 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 2: in certain cities. 48 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 3: It's got it's gotten just downright ugly. 49 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 2: And you take all of these activities and then you 50 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 2: add into that the idea of blowing the drug boats 51 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 2: out of the water. 52 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 3: Now, do I think the drug boats? Yeah? I do. 53 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 2: I think when you've got a high speed boat making 54 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,399 Speaker 2: its way towards the United States from the Caribbean, it's 55 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 2: it's not a family out enjoying their their their high 56 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 2: speed boat. 57 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 3: Uh, It's it's drug runners. 58 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 2: And I accept that our Defense Department officials have figured 59 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 2: out uh and uh, And I accept what what's being done. 60 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 2: You engage yourself in that sort of activity, you take 61 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 2: some chances. We now have US naval power pretty much 62 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 2: heading towards Venezuela. 63 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 3: I don't know what that means. Is there something Alan 64 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 3: Manuel Noriega going on? 65 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 2: But with all of this activity, the conversation about buying Greenland, 66 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 2: the conversation about rebuilding gaza and casinos on the Mediterranean Gaza, 67 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 2: what's going on at the White House right now? People 68 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 2: are very upset about that. They were very upset about 69 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,840 Speaker 2: the Fourth of July parade and the military in Washington, 70 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 2: which cost a lot of money. They were upset the 71 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 2: fact that there was American military hardware going down streets 72 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 2: in Washington, d C. With a concern that that military 73 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:41,279 Speaker 2: hardware would damage the infrastructure of the nation's capital. Look, 74 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 2: I'm sure there are things that he's done that you 75 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 2: have questioned. But my question to you tonight is this. 76 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 2: Nothing seems to stick on Donald Trump. Is it that 77 00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 2: he's moving so fast one from one thing to the next. 78 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 2: You had the big No King's rallies last weekend. People 79 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 2: turned out. I think they said they were twenty five 80 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 2: hundred demonstrations nationwide. I don't doubt that, but I don't 81 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 2: know that that changes the politics of it. My question 82 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 2: is pretty simple. If you agree with me that, oh, sure, 83 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 2: amongst those who didn't vote for him and those who 84 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 2: didn't vote for him in twenty sixteen, and those that 85 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 2: voted for Democrats. 86 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 3: And I didn't vote for him in twenty sixteen, twenty twenty. 87 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 2: Or twenty four I've said that before, but I didn't 88 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 2: vote for the Democrat either, And I guess I'm Switzerland 89 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 2: and all of this, but I want to hear from you. 90 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:55,040 Speaker 2: Is he a teflon president? Meaning that virtually anything that 91 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 2: he has done so far, nothing has really stuck to him. 92 00:05:59,560 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 3: Nothing. 93 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 2: There's nothing that he has done that the middle of America, 94 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 2: the people who made him president, the people who voted 95 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 2: him in in the seven swing states, because that's what 96 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 2: decided the election. 97 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,160 Speaker 3: There's no indication that they have turned on him. Uh. 98 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 2: He enjoys their support. He is, He's available, he's accessible. 99 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 2: Is it just that he has the vigor that his 100 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 2: predecessor didn't have? 101 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 3: What? 102 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 2: What is the secret sauce for Donald Trump? And I 103 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 2: and I mean that that. 104 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 3: I asked that question honestly. Uh? 105 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 2: Is it his accessibility? I mean it seems like he's 106 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 2: holding a news conference every other day, or or at 107 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 2: least some sort of a gaggle. 108 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 3: Uh. 109 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 2: He's speaking from behind the oval, from behind the desk 110 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 2: at the White House, in the in the Oval office, 111 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 2: or he's in the Cabinet room. So that's my question 112 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 2: to you. Uh, is he a teflon president? Can he 113 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 2: get away? I don't think he can get away with everything, 114 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 2: but he's got away with everything so far, unlike his term, 115 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 2: his first term, no democrat is saying we're going to 116 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 2: impeach him. He was asked today about whether or not 117 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 2: he needed congressional approval to take action against Venezuela. He 118 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 2: gave an answer which you couldn't pin him down, but 119 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 2: basically says, I don't think so, but we'll see. But 120 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 2: there's no Democrat that I know of who's suggesting that 121 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 2: he'd be impeached. Maybe the Democrats have learned that lesson. 122 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 2: Maybe he's done nothing which rises that, so gonna open 123 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 2: it up. I don't care if you're a supporter or 124 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 2: if you're a critic, you got to agree that there's nothing. 125 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 2: There's nothing that the devil Democrats have have have raised 126 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 2: which is stuck to Donald Trump. He is a teflon 127 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 2: president at this point. He may not always be, but 128 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 2: as of now, nothing has stuck. Six one, seven, two, five, 129 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 2: four thirty six one seven, nine, three, one ten thirty 130 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 2: New callers always welcome, regular callers, come on back.

So you're gonna tell me the answer. 175 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:47,839 Speaker 2: Is he a Teflon president at this point, which could 176 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 2: be a good or a bad thing. 177 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 5: By the way, from what I understand it as just 178 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 5: this is always doing my own research. In my experience, 179 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 5: is that there's a military occupancy in it continuity of government, 180 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 5: so that allows all the portions of the government to 181 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 5: just function for essential purposes. And the whole concept of 182 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 5: switching to the goldback currency in the digital crypto that 183 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 5: is all part of a massive wealth transfer, and they're 184 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 5: literally shifting the way the banking system works globally, which 185 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 5: is bound to cause a lot of disruption. So what 186 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 5: the military has done has done a lot of different 187 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 5: operations working with FEMA to h with the natural disasters. 188 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 5: That's why you're either seeing a lot of something or 189 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,959 Speaker 5: you're not seeing a lot of something because delegations of 190 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 5: authority occurred where you're not really seeing on the mainstream 191 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 5: media what's really going on behind it. 192 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 2: So Edward, hold on here for a second. You're taking 193 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 2: me down a totally different path asking a question of 194 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 2: is this president a teflon president? Meaning it just seems 195 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 2: that that nothing sticks. Rob mentioned the Epstein files. I 196 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:14,720 Speaker 2: don't think the Epstein files have stuck yet, so I'm 197 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:18,199 Speaker 2: not sure you'll go down a different different. 198 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 5: So everything's already been done, essentially, is what I'm everything 199 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 5: we're seeing. We're seeing a replay of things that have 200 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 5: already been done in the simplest way, and I would 201 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 5: urge people to do their research and look into things. 202 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 5: At the end of the day, it's a. 203 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 2: Clear Edward, I'm unclear, and if I'm unclear, I think 204 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 2: my audience might be unclear. I'll put it as simply 205 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,679 Speaker 2: as I can. I'm not sure what you're talking about. Obviously, 206 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 2: Crypto is something that people are still trying to figure out. 207 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 3: Whether it's good or. 208 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 2: You. 209 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 3: You, I guess have an opinion on it. I don't. 210 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 2: I don't know how that relates to Donald Trump possibly 211 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 2: doing something in Venezuela or Donald Trump UH telling Ice 212 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 2: to go out and uh and find people arrest them. 213 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 2: All the controversies that have swirled around Donald Trump relate 214 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 2: that to what we're talking about, if you can. 215 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 5: Essentially, it's to stop the flow of the money. 216 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 6: If you cut it at. 217 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:27,199 Speaker 5: The source, which is the cartels, the people, traffic, and 218 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:29,439 Speaker 5: that whole nine yards. You cut off the source and 219 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 5: it's not gonna make its way up to the top 220 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:35,840 Speaker 5: of the chain at it's simplest. And like I said, 221 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 5: he's switching the whole global financial system. 222 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 3: Okay, so do you the way? 223 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,320 Speaker 2: So do you think that what he's doing with these 224 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 2: cartels and even now suggesting that he might hit the 225 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,839 Speaker 2: cartels on the ground in Venezuela is that a good 226 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:50,680 Speaker 2: thing in your mind? 227 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 3: Or a bad thing? 228 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 5: And I would me personally I'm gonna say it's a 229 00:13:58,400 --> 00:13:58,719 Speaker 5: good thing. 230 00:13:58,760 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 6: There. 231 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 3: You could say whatever you want to go, Edward, whatever 232 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 3: you want here. Okay. 233 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,680 Speaker 2: So no, if it's a good thing, if it's a 234 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 2: good thing, do you think that people are going to say, hey, this, 235 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,560 Speaker 2: this is the this is the backbreaker. I mean, with 236 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 2: all the stuff that he's done, some of which you 237 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 2: almost think he trolls people. 238 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 3: Uh, he seems. 239 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 2: At this point to be a teflon president that that 240 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 2: nothing has stuck on him. 241 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 3: Nothing. 242 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 5: I see what you're saying, him kind of being a troll. 243 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 5: And I think that's part of it, is he's kind 244 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:39,480 Speaker 5: of purposely bouncing, bouncing all over the place. Okay, I 245 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 5: think it's kind of part It's all part of the act, 246 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 5: if you will, But most of it will act the plan. 247 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 2: I mean, maybe it's more of a plan. Maybe it's 248 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 2: a strategy. You flood the zone, you know, just as 249 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 2: a football team. Yeah, football team comes out and says 250 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 2: we're gonna yeah. Okay, I think we're kind of talking 251 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 2: past each other. Edward, I really tried. Feel free to 252 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 2: call call again. I I just would like to get 253 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 2: back to is he teflon? Is there anything that he 254 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 2: could do? You know short of I don't know. 255 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 3: It just seems to know. 256 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 6: Thank you very much, you know. 257 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 3: Real, Okay, thank you very much. I appreciate you thinking. 258 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 3: Have a great night. Good night. 259 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 2: Let me go next to Bill and Danvers. Bill, I'm asking, 260 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 2: is Donald Trump a teflon president? 261 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 7: No, I you know, I don't think so. But he 262 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 7: does believe in a robust and I think he learned 263 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 7: this from the first term. A robust offense is the 264 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 7: best defense. And he has a list of goals. He 265 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 7: spent a few years. I heard he has those little 266 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 7: sticky papers, you know, the little ones you write notes on. 267 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 7: He had a wall of them, and those were things 268 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 7: that he was going to accomplish, and he's doing one 269 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 7: at a time, and he kind of has. 270 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 2: A I'm a sticky paper guy too, by the way. 271 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 7: Yeah. But uh, and also the opposition, they don't particularly 272 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 7: help themselves because you know, they come out, I mean 273 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 7: they're all offended about you know, the East wing of 274 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 7: the White House. Right, it's a historical thing. But a 275 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 7: few years ago, Uh, they couldn't wait to rip down 276 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 7: statues all over the country. 277 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 2: Interesting, I haven't I haven't heard that analogy. That's what 278 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 2: my callers are that you guys are the best callers. 279 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 7: Yeah, And you know, I think nowadays right when you 280 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 7: know you have a little time to read and I 281 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 7: hit in the middle of the day and between customers 282 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 7: or I'm at the gym now, and I think people 283 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 7: are more informed than you think. And when they see that, 284 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 7: they and they watch these guys and like, I'm here 285 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 7: now and I can read the unneath like CNN and stuff. 286 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 7: I can almost tell you. And actually I listened to 287 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 7: your broadcast the news. I know you don't hear in 288 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 7: between breaks, and they're saying, well, but the inflation is 289 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 7: of three percent and stuff. Well, the stock market wouldn't 290 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 7: have rallied today the way they had said the news report, 291 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 7: because it came in hotter than normal. 292 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 6: It only increased. And the reason that. 293 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 7: Market rallied is because more than likely we're gonna have 294 00:16:57,320 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 7: an interest rate if the inflation had went up the 295 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 7: way the new reporter had said it that I had 296 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 7: heard just a few breaks ago when I first came 297 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 7: into the gym, the market wouldn't have rallied. But you 298 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:11,120 Speaker 7: have to watch that stuff. 299 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 2: Because I'm not in the business of second guessing the 300 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,120 Speaker 2: reporters and WBZ Okay. 301 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:23,440 Speaker 7: I was actually shocked when I heard it. They're pretty good. 302 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 7: You know, they're in the middle a little bit. 303 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,439 Speaker 2: And you know, the point I wanted to make to you, 304 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 2: Bill is that I do a talk show. I have 305 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:36,919 Speaker 2: a wide opportunity to express my opinion, to raise issues, 306 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 2: to invite callers, and I give callers a wide swath 307 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 2: to say what they o. 308 00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 7: No, you do like they like the guy ahead of 309 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:47,240 Speaker 7: me that you were very pacib with him. I was 310 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:48,640 Speaker 7: kind of lost myself, to be. 311 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 2: Honest, I was hoping he was going to bring it 312 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,880 Speaker 2: together at the end. But that's okay. He'll call again sometimes. 313 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 2: But the point let me finish if I could. The 314 00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 2: point that I'm trying to make is, you know, the 315 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,120 Speaker 2: fact that he's a teflon president. 316 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:05,920 Speaker 3: Which is my theory here. 317 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 2: Okay, maybe that's a good thing, maybe that's a bad thing. 318 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 2: It's it's people can look at it different ways. People 319 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 2: who like Donald Trump may say, hey, they've thrown everything 320 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:22,200 Speaker 2: at him but the kitchen sink and nothing stuck. Others 321 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 2: might say it bounces off because he's moving too quickly 322 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,400 Speaker 2: or whatever. I don't know, the bottom line is he's 323 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 2: an interesting president. There was a comment that he made 324 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:35,159 Speaker 2: the other day, which did offend me, to be honest 325 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 2: with you, And I don't know if you heard this comment. 326 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 2: He's supposed he was upset with new Gingrich because new 327 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:44,199 Speaker 2: Gingridge said that he was the third greatest president behind 328 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 2: Lincoln in Washington, and President Trump was offended that that 329 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 2: gingridg would put up Washington and Lincoln ahead of him. 330 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:54,359 Speaker 3: Did you hear that comment? 331 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:56,119 Speaker 8: Uh? 332 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 7: No, I didn't, But he could have said I don't 333 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 7: know if he don't said joke, or maybe he'd you know, 334 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 7: behind closed doors, hey new you know it was only 335 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,200 Speaker 7: or whatever. So I don't know about that. I mean, 336 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 7: I mean, I mean you have to say, you know, 337 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,719 Speaker 7: Washington got everything started and held it together and Lincoln 338 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:15,640 Speaker 7: saved it. So you know, you gotta put those two guys. 339 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 3: That's a tough bar to beat, that's for sure. 340 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 7: But I just want to say, yeah, when you had, 341 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 7: when you have time, the Venezuelan thing. If you dig 342 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 7: a little deeper, there's an islands called Margarita up there. 343 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 7: It used to be a beautiful place, but that's a 344 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:35,159 Speaker 7: training ground. Now you got Hesba and Hamas. Then okay, 345 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:38,120 Speaker 7: spend some time and look into that that's why he's anxious. 346 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:39,639 Speaker 7: We're in a hemisphere. 347 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:43,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, here's the deal. If that's true, that's that's the 348 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 2: first I've heard of it. What's your source. I'm not 349 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 2: challenging you. I'm asking you. 350 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 7: You know, I heard and read something about a year 351 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 7: or two ago, and I couldn't tell you. And then 352 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:56,959 Speaker 7: I heard something again recently and he does have ties 353 00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 7: with those guys. 354 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 3: Guy challenging in Bill, I'm asking. 355 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 7: What's I don't know?

But I don't 363 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,959 Speaker 2: think that the commanders would be thrilled with me. What 364 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 2: did you say The island was called Margharita. 365 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 7: Yeah, it was a great little tourist place. It was 366 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 7: almost something like a rubric because you know, Venezuela is 367 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 7: very close. 368 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 2: YEA.

It is a beautiful island. 394 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 2: I try to find any connection between that island and 395 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:07,160 Speaker 2: Hespola or Hamas people are still going to this island 396 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 2: for vacations. Okay, here's something from trip Advisor, Marguerite Island 397 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 2: all you must know before you go. It offers Caribbean beaches, windsurfing, 398 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 2: golf and scuba. So I don't think that Hespola or 399 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 2: Hamas our training on this island. Now, there was a 400 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 2: lot of articles in the years twenty nineteen twenty twenty 401 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 2: of Hespola did have a presence in a relationship with 402 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,720 Speaker 2: back in the day President Hugo Chavez. I have pictures 403 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:52,400 Speaker 2: of him here at a rally for two thousand and 404 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 2: six with Sheikh Hassan Nosrala. 405 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 3: Who was the head of Hespola. He was taken out 406 00:22:59,600 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 3: by the. 407 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 2: Inn in an air attack in September of twenty twenty four, 408 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 2: and Ugo Jabs is long gone too. I don't think 409 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:17,200 Speaker 2: I'm satisfied, having done my thorough sarch here that Hamas 410 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:20,919 Speaker 2: and Hespola do not have fighters on that island. But 411 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 2: maybe they might have been a time where they were 412 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 2: thinking of it. Tony is in Malden, Tony next on 413 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 2: night side? 414 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:30,119 Speaker 6: Is it going by? 415 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:30,920 Speaker 8: Oh you're doing tonight? 416 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 3: I'm doing great, Tony. What's on your mind tonight? 417 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:35,640 Speaker 4: So I was trying to catch you on the snap 418 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 4: question because it's a lot more. Oh great, great. So 419 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 4: here's my theory on this. Now, I understand where you 420 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 4: come from. What're using the budget. I think it's great 421 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 4: to think outside the box and say, okay, you haven't 422 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:50,720 Speaker 4: used that emergency fund that's there. But the problem that 423 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 4: I see personally with multiple people is the people that 424 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 4: are taking advantage of that SNAP. The food stamps program 425 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 4: now now they there's more people taking advantage of it 426 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 4: than there are people that actually need it. And I'm 427 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,679 Speaker 4: all for helping everybody, and the people that do need it, 428 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 4: I think they should get it. I see people posting 429 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 4: videos how they're upset because they have to do They said, oh, 430 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,880 Speaker 4: maybe you can give community service and we'll give you 431 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,439 Speaker 4: X amount of dollars. Now I know multiple people that 432 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 4: have multiple kids. So what they do is they pop 433 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 4: out kids. I shouldn't say like that, but have kids, 434 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 4: more kids, more kids, and then every kid that they have, 435 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 4: they're getting all this money, four or five grand food stamps. 436 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,879 Speaker 4: Now go back to the cookies like yourself, you do 437 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,919 Speaker 4: it out because you know it's not a smart thing 438 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:41,440 Speaker 4: to be putting that in your budget if you can't 439 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 4: afford it, So you're doing without. I'm doing without. The 440 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 4: rest of the world is working wi our asses off 441 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:50,160 Speaker 4: to to make money to make this, you know, make 442 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 4: the world go around, make the world better. 443 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 3: No, I'm with you. 444 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:55,160 Speaker 2: I'm with you here generally, by the way, I can 445 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:56,920 Speaker 2: afford the four dollars. 446 00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I know you. 447 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 2: However, it runs against my rain for me to spend 448 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:04,639 Speaker 2: money on something that I know should be costed maybe 449 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:05,920 Speaker 2: three p forty nine. 450 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 7: But put that out point. 451 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm with you totally on this. 452 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,160 Speaker 2: But what I'm saying is I don't want to see 453 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 2: the politicians here in Massachusetts, who are all Democratic, using 454 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 2: poor people for leverage in a fight with the Republicans 455 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 2: over you know, the. 456 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,199 Speaker 4: Shot, just get up a hand. I agree with you. 457 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:31,080 Speaker 2: And what I'm saying is, we have eight point eight billion, 458 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:34,919 Speaker 2: at least eight point probably closer than nine billion, the 459 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:36,879 Speaker 2: way the market has been going the last year or 460 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:37,360 Speaker 2: so in. 461 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 3: The Rainy Day Fund. 462 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 2: We could take care of every person in Massachusetts who 463 00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 2: was on snap legitimately or illegitimately, and we wouldn't even 464 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 2: put a hot put a dent into that rainy day 465 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 2: fund uh.

I don't think he was a day. 552 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 2: I think it was a heat and the nut jogged 553 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 2: down in Florida who was sitting out there and had 554 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 2: a pretty heavy duty weapon. 555 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 3: He also was a he. There's no suggestion that I 556 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 3: know of. 557 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 2: There's certainly a question that haven't been answered, questions haven't 558 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 2: been answered, but no suggestion we know of that there 559 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 2: was any more than a than a messed up. 560 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 9: Twenty years right exactly. But but I'm sure they all 561 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 9: prayed it, you know. 562 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 2: Well, I don't know anyway they are. 563 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:27,320 Speaker 3: Again if they prayed it. 564 00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 2: But I will say this, I think that some of 565 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 2: the language that the left has thrown around on people 566 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 2: that they're fascist and they're racist because they disagree on 567 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 2: an issue. Yeah, I think that that has we got 568 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 2: to calm We got to calm the conversation down. And 569 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 2: what I'm trying to do that on night side, to 570 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 2: be really. 571 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 3: Honest with you. 572 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 9: Okay, So yeah, so they well I'm saying they like, 573 00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,080 Speaker 9: I don't mean Democrats or anything, the people you know 574 00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 9: that have dashed him and everything all these years and 575 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,280 Speaker 9: said he's going to sell world War three and actually 576 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 9: he's he's stopping wars. 577 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 2: They went, they went from accusing him that if he 578 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 2: gets if he's elected, we'll be in World War three. 579 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 2: But then the next narrative was he's Putin's best friend. 580 00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 2: So you can't have that both ways. You can't be 581 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,960 Speaker 2: ready to nuke Russia and still be Putin's best friend. 582 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:24,400 Speaker 2: And I don't think he's either of them. I think 583 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 2: he's he's who's trying to who's trying to move Putin 584 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 2: in a way. Now, they may come a point in 585 00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 2: time where he's gonna have to get tougher, but I 586 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 2: think so far he's negotiated it pretty well. Again, it 587 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 2: was Biden who in twenty twenty two, after Russia had 588 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 2: Master troops on the border of Ukraine. 589 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 3: Biden said one word, don't that through the fear of God? 590 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 3: And them didn't. 591 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, And look at it.

It's so many things that you've 630 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 8: been talking about tonight. First, I would say, yes, our 631 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:50,480 Speaker 8: president is teflon, at least up to date he has been. Yeah, 632 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 8: I've seen him, you know with you know, I'm old 633 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,480 Speaker 8: enough to know, you know, he's done a lot of 634 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 8: things that I would say were unethical and some would 635 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:02,960 Speaker 8: say illegal, but hasn't stuck. And so you know my thoughts, 636 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:05,960 Speaker 8: he must have a fairy godmother, like you know, taking 637 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 8: care of him, because you know, and I think you 638 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:12,960 Speaker 8: could attest. I've never seen someone escape so many close calls, 639 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:19,400 Speaker 8: you know, like going on there, most definitely, most definitely. 640 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:22,799 Speaker 8: And then and then one of your callers was talking 641 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:26,800 Speaker 8: about the SNAP program. And you know, I got some 642 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 8: advice before I ran for office. It was an oxygenarian 643 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 8: from Roxbury named Mother Hurt, and she said to me, 644 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 8: she said, Gareth never oppose seizing feeding people, always support 645 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 8: feeding hungry people. And I took her advice, and I 646 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,760 Speaker 8: think that's great advice. You don't throw away the baby 647 00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:49,480 Speaker 8: with the bath order because I know, you know, there's 648 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 8: always going to be some fraud abuse in whatever happens, 649 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:55,160 Speaker 8: but you don't. You don't destroy a program, or you 650 00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 8: don't punish people on a program because there are a 651 00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:58,240 Speaker 8: few bad apples. 652 00:34:59,120 --> 00:34:59,759 Speaker 3: I agree with you. 653 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 2: I agree with you, And we have an eight point 654 00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 2: eight billion dollar rainy day fund. And if this may 655 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 2: not be a rainy day for you and me because 656 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,719 Speaker 2: we're not impacted directly, but it will be a rainy 657 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 2: day for poor people. And I think the Democratic politicians 658 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:18,080 Speaker 2: who run Massachusetts need to open up that rainy day 659 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,439 Speaker 2: fund and take care of hungry people in Massachusetts. 660 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:24,239 Speaker 8: If the federal government, if it was only that issue, Dan, 661 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 8: I would agree with you.
