But in the masking, 36 00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: in the wake of all of this stuff that's gone on, 37 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: there's problem, right, Nick, you and I were talking last night. 38 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: Might have had a couple cocktails in us, but you know, 39 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: I don't I don't want to see people that I 40 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:13,080 Speaker 1: disagree with be harmed just because you and I don't 41 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 1: get along, doesn't mean I wish you to be harmed, 42 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: or it doesn't mean that I hate you. It doesn't 43 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 1: mean that we can't have a civil conversation. It doesn't 44 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,080 Speaker 1: mean that outside of politics we can't get along. And 45 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 1: that's that's a problem for me. You have a right 46 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: to protest, everybody does. But you can't go to a 47 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: protest armed and think that it could end well for you. 48 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 1: Now I get it. We're going to talk with Hans 49 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: von Spakovski, one of our friends at Advancing American Freedom. 50 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 1: We're going to talk about the Second Amendment and was 51 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 1: Alex Preddy justified to have a gun? Many people will 52 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: say yes, right, we say yes, But why me, as 53 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 1: a concealed carry permit holder or as somebody that uphols 54 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 1: and believes in my Second Amendment rights? Why do I 55 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: want to go where I know things are going to 56 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,799 Speaker 1: be terse and go with with a And that doesn't 57 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: mean and again, it's only a weapon if it's in 58 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: the wrong hands, just to be clear. But that doesn't 59 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 1: mean he shouldn't be able to do it. But I 60 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 1: guess the question is is judgment right? Use good judgment? 61 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,079 Speaker 1: And I wonder you know why can't we use good 62 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,839 Speaker 1: judgment anymore? And if you're a mom or a dad, 63 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: or a grandparent, or my gosh, if you're a teacher, 64 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: you can tell people how to exercise their their their 65 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,799 Speaker 1: right to free speech, but also be smart about it. Right, 66 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 1: there's going to be a lot of chances for people 67 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 1: to get out and yell at each other, but do 68 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: so without getting yourself in harm's way.

And this 71 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: isn't something that just happened. Now. The thing that you 72 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 1: have to understand, too, is it's not just peaceful protesters 73 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: in the Twin Cities, just like it's not here in Chicago. 74 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 1: Who's funding this, who's dropping off the hot meals, who's 75 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 1: going to Panera and bring in the tray? Right right? 76 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: Because people are showing up with soups and salads and 77 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: they're like, hey, make sure that you're well when you're 78 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: here to protest.

We're not talking about 95 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:50,919 Speaker 3: having polite conversations anymore. Sorry, but welcome to America twenty 96 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 3: twenty six, where Second Amendment is the only thing that's 97 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 3: going to keep you protected from literal Nazi gunmen that 98 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 3: are killing innocent people in the street with impunity. 99 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,040 Speaker 1: So in the video, this guy's all dressed in black.

But here he looks like a bona fide 103 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 1: guy that could cause some trouble. And I don't want 104 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: this guy showing up anywhere where there's kids, where there's protesters, 105 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 1: where there's moms, and it always seems to be the white, liberal, 106 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 1: suburban moms will drag their kids to these things that 107 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,919 Speaker 1: are showing up. And you got people like this, And 108 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,840 Speaker 1: don't get me wrong, there's agitators on both sides. Right, 109 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 1: there's people that think that this shouldn't go on anymore. 110 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 1: And by God, we're gonna go out there and we're 111 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 1: gonna stop it. In America, you can't let yourself get 112 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 1: dragged in to this. Put the phone down and stop scrolling. Now. 113 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 1: I did find that while I was doom scrolling. But 114 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: all of this goes on and then people mobilize. Right, 115 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 1: Father Flagger is going to hold a protest, and the 116 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: Chicago Teachers' Union is boots on the ground. In Minneapolis, 117 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 1: Brandon Johnson is on Ida b Wells, or as we 118 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,799 Speaker 1: call it around here, Congress Parkway with a big protest 119 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: the other day. But can I just ask where is 120 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:07,280 Speaker 1: Chicago to stick up for Chicago? We lose kids, We 121 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: lose women. We lose people each and every day to violence. 122 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 1: But gosh, Nick, it's only about one day to day here. 123 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: Good news for US, murder rates going down. Murder rate's 124 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,919 Speaker 1: gone down almost twenty percent across the country. Now, do 125 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,280 Speaker 1: you think that's because of Mayor Brandon Johnson or Pritzker. No, 126 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 1: I don't think so. But the thing of it is 127 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: here in Chicago is where in the world do we 128 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: start standing up for our kids in the Chicago public 129 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: school system. Why don't you do this? Why don't you 130 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 1: do something that affects the kids here in town? Mayor 131 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 1: Brandon Johnson, Why don't you do something for your city, 132 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: Chicago Teachers Union, how about you help out what's going 133 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 1: on here with the gangs and everything else. But nobody 134 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 1: talks about that. And if you're a gang banger in Chicago, 135 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: you get a pass, and you get a pass, and 136 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: you get a pass. And it's bs because we continue 137 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 1: to do the same stupid thing, and all we do 138 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 1: is we incite people to be angry. Nobody wants to 139 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: help anybody out in this and if, gosh forbid, somebody 140 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,039 Speaker 1: gets killed and a kid gets killed, you forget about it. 141 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 1: In two days, you know, Yeah, the street pastors are there, 142 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 1: and yeat makes a great news story and Robbie Bachwell's 143 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: going to talk about it. But the thing of it 144 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: is is it never gets better. It never gets better 145 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 1: because we're too busy in everybody else's crap. What does 146 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: the Chicago Teachers Union have to do with standing with Minneapolis? 147 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: Saint Paul, are you teaching your kids?

You can talk about the Fifth, you can 150 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: talk about the fourteenth and how you can mold those 151 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 1: into your way of thinking about how people can be 152 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: here illegal legally or not, and what due process actually 153 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 1: means when it comes to people that are here. But 154 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: the fact of the matter is is do something for 155 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: this city that needs it so desperately. Do it for 156 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: the city that's been broken. Do it for the city 157 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 1: that has empty buildings, taxes that nobody can pay, and 158 00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: crime that is unspeakable at times. But don't worry, it's 159 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 1: getting better because we're only killing one person a day, 160 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: We're only burning so many people on the CTA tracks, right, 161 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: it just pisses me off.

I 199 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 1: brought her home yesterday from the Great White North, and 200 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 1: I had to put into effect what I call the 201 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 1: ten year rule, meaning we can't talk about anything older 202 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 1: than ten years. And she tells me she goes, but 203 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 1: it's good for old people to remember things. It keeps 204 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: them from getting Alzheimer's. I'm like, you're never going to 205 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 1: get Alzheimer's, and you live a life that is more 206 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 1: exciting than anybody in this room. I can promise you. 207 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 1: I go tell me something new. She just gets so 208 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 1: mad at me. What can I do for you? Rachel? 209 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 6: You know, we give too many allocations for stupidity. This 210 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 6: Alex pretty did not go there just peacefully protest. He 211 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 6: was in some murder. He went there to interfere in 212 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 6: an operation that these DHS agents were carrying out, and 213 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 6: it turned deadly because the idiot brought a gun. Ye 214 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 6: he he not brought his gun. He'd be a life today. 215 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 6: But let's all look at everybody else's fault, and that's 216 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 6: a stupid idiot who brought the gun to begin with. 217 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what, it's going to be problematic though, 218 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 1: And I had been busy with pat so I didn't 219 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: get to see a lot of the video of the shooting. 220 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: What they do show when he gets shot, that he'd 221 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,959 Speaker 1: been disarmed. That is going to be a problem. That 222 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 1: will be problematic. 223 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 7: Well, that particular sig that he had is prone to 224 00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 7: just firing. 225 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 1: I understand it. So yeah, we'll see. So it's guns 226 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 1: don't kill people. Guns kill people if it fires on 227 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:10,119 Speaker 1: its own sometimes. Yeah, you know what, that's an unsightly 228 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,199 Speaker 1: gun too. I wouldn't like that just for the way 229 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 1: it looks large. It doesn't work for me. Doesn't work 230 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: for me. The cool thing about our next guest is 231 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,199 Speaker 1: he can spell his and am either forward or backward. 232 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:21,440 Speaker 1: Otto is here in town? 233 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 8: Iatto, Hey, good morning, thanks for being on the air. 234 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: Well, thanks for calling, buddy. What can we do for you? 235 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 8: I have five words? He got what he deserved. He 236 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 8: was a poor excuse for a nurse. If he was 237 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 8: a nurse going to help, where was the bag of 238 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:48,559 Speaker 8: medical supplies? Instead he had a they say, a military 239 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 8: grade weapon and two additional megs. He had angwheer from 240 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 8: thirty to sixty pieces of ammunition and he was going 241 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 8: to help. Uh huh, he got what he deserved. 242 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 1: Well, you know here, I'm not gonna I'm not going 243 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,680 Speaker 1: to disagree that a poor decision can lead to a 244 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: poor outcome. I don't want to fall into the trap 245 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 1: is saying that a guy got what he deserved. I 246 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,200 Speaker 1: don't know what was in his heart to carry. It's 247 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 1: his right to carry, But why would you do that? 248 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,320 Speaker 1: I don't want to see I would. I would like 249 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,840 Speaker 1: this to stop because I don't know where it ends. Nick, 250 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 1: Where does it? Where does it end? Does it end 251 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 1: with civil war? Does Minnesota want to succeed secede? From 252 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,960 Speaker 1: the United States, Do we give it to Canada because 253 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: the fact of the matter is here is you have 254 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 1: paid agitators who's pan form. We'll find that out. And 255 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: this lieutenant governor, this Peggy Flanagan, is that her name 256 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 1: Flanagan flan one. Now, if she is believed to have 257 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:51,200 Speaker 1: been on the signal chat app as flan one, if 258 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 1: she was tipping off some of these protesters to where 259 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 1: the activity was going to be or helping them, that 260 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 1: that's insurrection stuff right there. And I just want to 261 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 1: say one more thing when it comes to people talking 262 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 1: about Kyle Rittenhouse, and I have a text message here 263 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 1: that I want to find. I know I strayed from 264 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: this page, but I just want to read this ray 265 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 1: and Nick, good morning. The same people that are so 266 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 1: upset about this guy Preddy being killed are the same 267 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 1: people that wanted Kyle's blood when he brought a gun 268 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: to Kenosha. And I just want to be clear. And 269 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 1: you can think of this radio station way you want 270 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:27,840 Speaker 1: to think about it. I will just say this. I 271 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:30,319 Speaker 1: didn't think that Kyle Rittenhouse should have been in Kenosha. 272 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: You know, why would you do that? Why would you 273 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,079 Speaker 1: put so in? Another thing? You can look at all 274 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 1: my social media and you can say you're not going 275 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 1: to find anything where I thought January sixth was a 276 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 1: good idea. That's not who I am. I believe that 277 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 1: if lawn orders law and order, you don't go to 278 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: the Capitol building, what's going to happen if you go there. 279 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 1: I just want to get that and clear the air 280 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:52,560 Speaker 1: with who you know that I am while we talk 281 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 1: here this morning on TI Raid Tuesday, Nick, if you 282 00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 1: had to put an entry into this new museum, the 283 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 1: Museum of Failure, Museum of Personal Failure, it's a pop 284 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 1: up just open in Vancouver. I don't think it's got 285 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 1: the big colonades like we have in the museum campuses 286 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: around here. But if you could cite a personal failure 287 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,199 Speaker 1: of your life, what would it be? Can I enter 288 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 1: my entire life? Come on now? Probably my divorce? Yeah, 289 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 1: my marriage, that's your your your personal failure, that's the 290 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 1: pentacle yea, yeah, Well I don't want to pile on, 291 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 1: but I guess I understand that. I think my personal 292 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 1: failure probably probably would be and it includes Minnesota, Ely, Minnesota, 293 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 1: leech Lake. I've got on a northern it's got to 294 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 1: be forty eight inches, and I didn't keep the tip 295 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 1: up on the rod, and I lost it when under 296 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 1: the boat got caught up in the motor. That that 297 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 1: could be in my personal Failure Hall of Fame, you know, 298 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 1: But I wanted to keep it light. I didn't, you know, 299 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 1: I didn't want to take it right off the deep end. 300 00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 1: But this personal Museum of Failure featured items include a 301 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 1: dead plant, a divorced woman's wedding dress. Okay, I understand 302 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: and I and those are hard, so that's those are 303 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 1: tough to get over, and a whole wall of rejected 304 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 1: job applications. I guess my personal failure here would be 305 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: that I didn't get this gig back before they hired 306 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 1: Bruce Saint James. But that wouldn't be my personal failure. 307 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 1: That'd be management three one two. Coming up next, Evan 308 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 1: Brown is going to join us from Fox News Radio. 309 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: I see that the First Lady of Florida is making 310 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 1: the news rounds today talking about a healthier Florida and 311 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 1: healthier candy and things like that. But uh, the reason 312 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 1: people leave our state to go to Florida. In places 313 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 1: like Florida is they're having a huge debate about slashing 314 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 1: more personal taxes. This in a year where I'm told 315 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 1: that we should do better based on some of these 316 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: tax cuts that will become you know to people, well, 317 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 1: not people like you, because Nick and I we're you know, 318 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 1: we're the accessively rich and we have all these tax breaks. Hey, 319 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 1: speaking of your personal failure, I guess I want to 320 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: ask you a personal question. And you don't have to 321 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 1: answer this if you don't want. But who gets those 322 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 1: two little mighty mites for dependence on the taxes? This year? 323 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: You were her? She does, Oh, but you get them 324 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: next year? Nope, you didn't call the Brisbane Brothers. Let's 325 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 1: talk with Evan Brown next on the Big eighty nine. 326 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 1: W ellis Hey, by Friday, we would like you to 327 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: come out and see us at the Donald E.

Just here's the thing, Nick, 341 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,400 Speaker 1: we can't show up in anybody's radar because we don't 342 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,440 Speaker 1: want to get blown out of Lake Michigan. They were 343 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 1: just going fishing. These two idiots actually had fishing gear 344 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 1: with them.

Can't wait to see you eleven to one 346 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,359 Speaker 1: with that guy and me, Ray Stevens. You know here 347 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,920 Speaker 1: in Illinois we talk about taxes all the time. Boy, 348 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:39,879 Speaker 1: it's been a tough year for Cook County property taxes. 349 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 1: People struggling. I mean, when clergy gets together and they 350 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 1: pray for taxes to come down, that's when you know 351 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 1: we've got a tax issue. Now, my friends that are 352 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,200 Speaker 1: praying for your taxes to come down, what you aught 353 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 1: might want to do is get out and vote. But 354 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: Florida going through a myriad of elimination or phased out 355 00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 1: elimination plans that they're talking about. Our friend Devin Brown 356 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,399 Speaker 1: from news radio here to discuss this morning. I haven't 357 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: good morning. So where does this start? I know that 358 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,120 Speaker 1: I'm looking at something here that is h JR. Two 359 00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 1: to one that talks about phasing out a non school 360 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 1: homestead property taxes, which they say would be a lot 361 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 1: of money in the first year. 362 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 9: Well, it would certainly be a big savings for a 363 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 9: lot of people. You know, these different proposals that are 364 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,120 Speaker 9: out there, I mean, you know, eventually one will come 365 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,640 Speaker 9: through the legislature or there will be an amalgamation of them. 366 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 9: But ultimately they're targeting non school taxes for homesteaded properties, 367 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 9: so these are the properties where people actually live with 368 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 9: their families. This would not affect second homes or investment 369 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:46,160 Speaker 9: properties or commercial and industrial real estate. Those would still 370 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 9: be getting there the same type of taxation. But the 371 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 9: and remember this that the property tax revenues go to 372 00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 9: counties and and to towns into school districts. They don't 373 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 9: go to the state, So the state is not going 374 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 9: to lose any money off of this. The question is 375 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,159 Speaker 9: would the counties be losing some money, And they might be, 376 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:15,119 Speaker 9: but the pressure from the governor here, Ron DeSantis, is 377 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:18,919 Speaker 9: that many of these counties have overblown budgets that that 378 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 9: are runaway spending, that this would keep them in check. 379 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:26,920 Speaker 9: And maybe there's some truth to that. What I can 380 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 9: tell you is just by looking at my own property 381 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 9: tax bill that if we were to lose non the 382 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 9: non school portion of it, my taxes would I would 383 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 9: be paying maybe a little less than a third. 384 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:44,359 Speaker 1: Of the tax. Yeah, it's amazing. I wouldn't thumb my 385 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 1: nose at that. Right now, there is one I'm looking 386 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 1: at here and I know that you know, you've you've 387 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,680 Speaker 1: sharpened your pencil on this. A lot of people leave Illinois. 388 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 1: A lot of people leave a lot of these cold 389 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,719 Speaker 1: leather states, but Illinois especially just because of the message 390 00:19:57,760 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: become and they go to Florida. A lot of those 391 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:04,399 Speaker 1: or seniors. Can you tell me about these targeted proposals 392 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 1: for folks over sixty five, because it would seem to me, 393 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 1: in a Florida population God's waiting room, this would be significant. 394 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 9: It certainly would be, especially if those seniors are going 395 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 9: to live here full time or most of the year. 396 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:22,120 Speaker 9: For those who are snowbirding and still spending more than 397 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 9: half the year in the frozen tundra of the rest 398 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 9: of the country, they would not benefit from having this 399 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:34,440 Speaker 9: property tax reduction or removal. So I mean again, it's good. 400 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:38,440 Speaker 9: Different proposals suggest doing in different ways, but ultimately that's 401 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 9: sort of the target of the bulls eye there. 402 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: Okay, I caught you saying something, and I forget from 403 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:45,679 Speaker 1: time to time because we talked to a lot of 404 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 1: folks from Fox. But you are in Florida, aren't you, Evan? 405 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: I am, I am, so can you speak? 406 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:51,200 Speaker 4: Well? 407 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,679 Speaker 9: It is cold here today because and I will I 408 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 9: did wear a flannel shirt today. 409 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: Okay, we wear flannel here in the middle of the summer. 410 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 1: It's like grunt a radio. Evan. What is it like 411 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 1: down there from somebody that's lived in the state for 412 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 1: a little while, have you? I mean, is it easy 413 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 1: to see the outward growth of people that have moved 414 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:14,679 Speaker 1: there from New York, from Illinois, from a lot of 415 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 1: these states where they know their money can go a 416 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 1: little bit farther there on the Sun Belt. 417 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 9: The traffic has gotten insane in the past few years 418 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:24,199 Speaker 9: because there's way more people here than there used to be. 419 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 9: We've taken on at least three million, probably more over 420 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 9: the past five years. And it is evident in the 421 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:36,120 Speaker 9: morning commute. It is evident in the commute home. It's 422 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 9: not just in South Florida where that's going on. It's 423 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,199 Speaker 9: in the Fort Myers Naples area, it's always in the 424 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 9: Orlando area. 425 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:43,400 Speaker 1: Everyone. 426 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 9: It's an incredibly crowded area of the state these days, 427 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,679 Speaker 9: and parts of the state that were generally kind of 428 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,439 Speaker 9: empty is starting to build up and fill out to 429 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 9: accommodate the demand. We can't keep up with that demand. 430 00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:01,120 Speaker 9: Our home values are extremely hot, and that's been another 431 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:07,400 Speaker 9: issue for homesteaders because even with the homestead exemptions that 432 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 9: we have where they knock off up to fifty thousand 433 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:13,920 Speaker 9: dollars of your property extras, even more now and they 434 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 9: cap something else called save our Homes, which there's a 435 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,159 Speaker 9: three percent I think cap on the increase in the 436 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 9: property tax. Overall, people especially who people aren't fixed income 437 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 9: or lower income, have been having difficulties keeping up with 438 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 9: the tax increases. So again, and that just has to 439 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 9: do with home values going up. That also drives up 440 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 9: the rental market because the taxes go up, so that's 441 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 9: been a problem. So by knocking off these the non 442 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:51,160 Speaker 9: school portion of the property tax for homesteaders, you again 443 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:54,879 Speaker 9: help people stay in their homes. That's a separate issue 444 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 9: from the insurance crisis. 445 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:57,359 Speaker 4: We've been having in the state. 446 00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 9: But that's another matter that has been a dressed through 447 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 9: tort reform and is just now really beginning to see 448 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:08,359 Speaker 9: some results. I don't know if I'm personally typical, but 449 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 9: my property insurance went down twenty percent this year. Wow, 450 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 9: So I'm happy about that. Knocking on the old floor 451 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 9: Mica top here in the studio, but you know, I 452 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 9: don't know if everyone else is feeling that at the moment. 453 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 9: I don't live on the coast, which you know, for 454 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:28,360 Speaker 9: a lot of people who are more coastal than I am, 455 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,959 Speaker 9: that the property taxes are insane. I'm a good eleven 456 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:35,200 Speaker 9: twelve miles inland, so I'm not near you know, the sea, 457 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 9: and wouldn't have a risk of storm surge in that 458 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 9: kind of event. But you know, and I have a 459 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 9: Newish roof which also helps. 460 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 1: Sure well, all that makes a difference when it comes 461 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: to taxes. Boy, I wish my taxes went down. Net 462 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 1: My taxes are untenable. All right, now, this is Evan 463 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:54,880 Speaker 1: Brown from Fox News Radio. Nick, I know you wanted 464 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:55,360 Speaker 1: to ask. 465 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:58,119 Speaker 7: Well, but it sounds like you guys have a problem 466 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 7: with keeping up with infrastructure, much like I've seen happen 467 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:08,400 Speaker 7: in Atlanta. It sounds like cutting taxes or phasing out 468 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 7: that portion of taxes wouldn't be helpful if you guys 469 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:14,920 Speaker 7: are in this growth period. 470 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 9: Well, that's where the state surplus comes in. The governor 471 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 9: has said that he would backfill using the state surplus 472 00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:25,200 Speaker 9: for if for any needs that the counties couldn't budget for. 473 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:28,640 Speaker 9: You have to remember that the county tax revenue from 474 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 9: those property taxes, thirty percent of it comes from the homesteaders. 475 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 9: Seventy percent is coming from is coming from non homestead properties, 476 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:40,400 Speaker 9: which means investment property, second homes, commercial and industrial real estate. 477 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:43,920 Speaker 9: Each county has the ability to put up I think 478 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 9: as much as a point percentage and a half on 479 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 9: top of the state sales tax state sales tax six percent. 480 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 9: Some counties, like for instance, Miami Dade are hitting that 481 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 9: full percent and a half. You know, they're at seven 482 00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:58,119 Speaker 9: and a half. Broward I think is at seven. You know, 483 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 9: that's the fort Lauderdale area some other counties they're not 484 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 9: even doing that because they have the property. You know, 485 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 9: they have the property tax. They have enough for what 486 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 9: they need now, dessandas the governor has said that he 487 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:12,160 Speaker 9: would backfill some needs with the with the state surpluses, 488 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 9: which are nice, and so maybe that would hold off 489 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:19,160 Speaker 9: the increase of the consumption tax. But at the same time, 490 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 9: you know, our infrastructure has to build out if we're 491 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 9: building new homes. That means you know, sewer and water. 492 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 9: And there are also non ad volorum taxes that go 493 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 9: to the properties as well, and we still don't know 494 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,159 Speaker 9: if those would be eliminated. So, for instance, on my 495 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 9: property tax, I have these non ad valorum for the 496 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 9: Southwest Broward Drainage District.

You had the canueler I think 560 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 1: is what you called it. Yeah, it was your canoe 561 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 1: full of bush light and you even bought some bud 562 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: light and stuff in there from back then. So you 563 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:31,400 Speaker 1: went you went large. And could you, if you had 564 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,120 Speaker 1: to one, how long ago was your wedding and could 565 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,720 Speaker 1: you kind of ballpark me on what it costs? Well, 566 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 1: twelve years ago? Twelve years Yeah, honey, that's a good run. 567 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 1: Pat yourself on the back. And it was a little 568 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 1: under ten grand, okay, all told. Still a lot of money, now, 569 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 1: you know, what It might have been a little less 570 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 1: than that, but anyways, that was like the budget that 571 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 1: we had. I don't know what Zola is, z O 572 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 1: la Zo, it's a Soloft is. I'm sure I should 573 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 1: be honest. So, Zola, that show's wedding costs in your 574 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:16,479 Speaker 1: area and what the spend is. So in Chicago surveys surveys, 575 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 1: that's Jinks Chicago weddings off in Land somewhere between fifty 576 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 1: thousand dollars and sixty thousand dollars depending on the venue. 577 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 1: And now that's for a down payment on a house, right, 578 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 1: But that's for a wedding. That's a nice wedding. Yeah, 579 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 1: that's not for like an exorbitant wedding where costs up 580 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 1: to one hundred and fifty K. I don't know what 581 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:40,959 Speaker 1: my daughter's wedding cost, but it was lovely and they 582 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 1: didn't spare any expenses.

He had every legal right to carry a gun. 652 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 1: But was he justified or is it just bad form 653 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 1: to do that? The end result is not a good 654 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 1: one for anybody. And if you think it is well, 655 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 1: that's that's shame on you. We don't want to see 656 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 1: people getting killed in these United States of America because 657 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 1: we're having a little argument between each other. We did 658 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:16,760 Speaker 1: that before and it didn't work out so well for us. 659 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:19,719 Speaker 1: Hans joins us next here on the Big eighty nine WLS.

Hans, welcome back to WLS. 676 00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 13: Good morning, sir, Ray, thanks for having me back. 677 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:11,280 Speaker 1: You are very welcome. Let's talk about Alex. Pretty nice nurse, 678 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 1: neighborhood friend, good guy. Friends of those that didn't have 679 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 1: any right. Everybody has a right to protest. You have 680 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:22,359 Speaker 1: a right in Minnesota to carry I'm a two a guy. 681 00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 1: But in your opinion, sir, bringing a weapon to a 682 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:34,200 Speaker 1: situation like this, a hotbed situation, is it just bad judgment? 683 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:36,840 Speaker 1: Where does all his ball? 684 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 4: Look? 685 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:40,800 Speaker 13: I agree with you. Look, I'm a big, big supporter 686 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,160 Speaker 13: of Concealed Carrie, and you do have a riot to 687 00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 13: bring a guy into a peaceful protest. But this was 688 00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,240 Speaker 13: not a peaceful protest. 689 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:50,040 Speaker 4: You know. 690 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:55,719 Speaker 13: Fox News has has disclosed that there's this entire encrypted 691 00:34:56,239 --> 00:35:00,920 Speaker 13: signals database that apparently this guy I was part of 692 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 13: organized by these far left socialist Marxist groups that basically 693 00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 13: are set up to find, track, and attack ICE officers 694 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:18,799 Speaker 13: and other federal agents in order to stop their enforcement 695 00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:24,440 Speaker 13: of federal immigration laws. So this wasn't a peaceful protest. 696 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:31,480 Speaker 13: This was trying to stop ICE from arresting who not 697 00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 13: only an illegal ailen, but somebody who's a convicted domestic abuser. 698 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:40,719 Speaker 13: This isn't any different than a group of people with 699 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:46,120 Speaker 13: guns showing up at a neighbor's house when they discover 700 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:52,239 Speaker 13: that law enforcement authorities are headed there to arrest him 701 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 13: because he's a bank robber. I mean, that's exactly the 702 00:35:55,239 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 13: same thing. And for the ICE agents, look, it's clear 703 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 13: they might have they may have overreacted. We don't know yet, 704 00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 13: but think about the situation that they are in. Death 705 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:16,319 Speaker 13: Threats against ICE officers are up eight thousand percent over 706 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:20,759 Speaker 13: last year, actual tax up one thousand percent. Protesters are 707 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 13: ramming their cars not only into ICE vehicles, but into 708 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:30,440 Speaker 13: the agents themselves, and they show up and there's already 709 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 13: basically a mob there to prevent them from carrying out 710 00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:39,320 Speaker 13: their operation. That puts them under huge stress. And that's 711 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:45,279 Speaker 13: all something that could be prevented if local authorities were 712 00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:46,399 Speaker 13: not allowing this to. 713 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 1: Happen, you know, And I think the certain look of 714 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:56,719 Speaker 1: the fourteen billion dollars of fraud reported fraud in Minneapolis, 715 00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 1: because we're not having this problem anywhere else where there's 716 00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 1: ICE and what's been going on. Sam's the state that 717 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:06,319 Speaker 1: has a fourteen billion dollar crisis on their hand. Now, 718 00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:08,040 Speaker 1: you brought up a lot of good points there, Hans, 719 00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:09,319 Speaker 1: and I want to bring this up. And this is 720 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:12,920 Speaker 1: Hans van Spakowski. He's our friend from Advancing American Freedom. 721 00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 1: I want to play something for you that was making 722 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 1: the rounds on social media on Saturday. This guy calls 723 00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 1: himself Antifa. Kyle and I want you to listen closely 724 00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 1: to this guy's actions and his calling to bear arms 725 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,759 Speaker 1: and to start trouble in Minneapolis. This is real, this 726 00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:31,160 Speaker 1: is social media. This is what's going on in Minneapolis. 727 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 3: My name is Kyle. I'm Antifa, and there's so much 728 00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:35,600 Speaker 3: raging me that I've had to record this like fifteen 729 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:39,759 Speaker 3: times trying to get the message out. Up, it's time 730 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:43,400 Speaker 3: to suit up, boots on the ground, ready to go. Okay, 731 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:47,680 Speaker 3: not talking about peaceful protests anymore. We're not talking about 732 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 3: having polite conversations anymore. Sorry, but welcome to America twenty 733 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,120 Speaker 3: twenty six, where Second Amendment is the only thing that's 734 00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 3: going to keep you protected from literal Nazi gunmen that 735 00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:03,719 Speaker 3: are fielding innocent people in the street with impunity. 736 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 1: Now, this guy sounds to me like he's serious, and 737 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 1: this is what this is what law enforcement has to 738 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:14,040 Speaker 1: deal with. So my word to a mom and her 739 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:16,640 Speaker 1: kids that want to go from Lombard and come on 740 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:19,200 Speaker 1: and get involved in something that they shouldn't be involved with, 741 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,480 Speaker 1: understand the threat that men and women have to deal with. 742 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:25,200 Speaker 1: I don't want to deal with Antifa, Kyle, right, but 743 00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 1: this is what men and women are up against. Why 744 00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:31,239 Speaker 1: do you think it's so hard for people in some 745 00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:34,400 Speaker 1: of these blue states to understand that we have rules 746 00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:37,399 Speaker 1: and laws and order, and without that, we're a third 747 00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 1: world country. Is that where we're heading now? 748 00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:44,120 Speaker 13: That is where we're heading in these third world Basically 749 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 13: they're third world states. Now, they're not Blue states anymore, 750 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:52,440 Speaker 13: their third world states. Look, this isn't any different what 751 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:56,440 Speaker 13: is happening there, what these mobs are doing, isn't any 752 00:38:56,520 --> 00:39:03,879 Speaker 13: different than the nineteen fifties. You had mobs of citizens 753 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:09,080 Speaker 13: and places like Arkansas with the help and instigation of 754 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:12,919 Speaker 13: local mayors, even the governor there, saying we are going 755 00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 13: to defy the federal government. We are going to defy 756 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:21,759 Speaker 13: civil rights laws. And remember that's when Eisenhower had to 757 00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:27,600 Speaker 13: call out one hundred and first Airborne to enforce federal laws. 758 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 13: And I got to tell you that may end up 759 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:34,759 Speaker 13: happening here too. But a key point, and you made it. 760 00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:40,320 Speaker 13: This isn't happening in places like Florida and Texas. Why 761 00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:46,600 Speaker 13: because local law enforcement is immediately stepping in to prevent 762 00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:51,000 Speaker 13: these mobs from forming and attacking federal officers. And so 763 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 13: it's not happening. It's happening in places where local officials 764 00:39:56,120 --> 00:40:00,480 Speaker 13: are cooperating with and actually encouraging the this kind of 765 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:01,320 Speaker 13: mob violence. 766 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:03,839 Speaker 1: You know, we're not living in Donald Trump's America. We're 767 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 1: living in the wake of what Joe Biden created and 768 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:09,640 Speaker 1: it needs to be cleaned up. I agree with you 769 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,040 Speaker 1: on so many points. Hey, where can now we send 770 00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 1: listeners if they want to find out more about Advancing 771 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 1: American Freedom, Hans. 772 00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:20,279 Speaker 13: I can go to their website, Advancing American Freedom and 773 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 13: find it. And you know, I get published all over 774 00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:26,200 Speaker 13: the place. So if they google my name and the 775 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 13: latest news don't find me. 776 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:31,400 Speaker 1: You're like Kurt Signetti from Indiana, google me. I'm a winner, Hans. 777 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,520 Speaker 1: We appreciate you man, thanks for having me. Thanks Pal, 778 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 1: you know. And to tie that back here to Chicago 779 00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:43,319 Speaker 1: is the Teachers' Union. Is Mayor Brandon Johnson yelling and 780 00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:47,279 Speaker 1: screaming and rising up in protests. You know, is this 781 00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:51,720 Speaker 1: what you stand for? You're harboring illegal aliens that are criminals. 782 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:54,520 Speaker 1: They're not looking for the mom and pom that are 783 00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:56,600 Speaker 1: in little village. Now. I know that the appearance of 784 00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:59,319 Speaker 1: that is so that the media will say, a five 785 00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:03,000 Speaker 1: year old was taken into custody by immigration, Well, you 786 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 1: know what, his dad left him there. Well if the 787 00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:08,800 Speaker 1: kid's been left because his dad ran, because his dad's 788 00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:12,080 Speaker 1: wanted for a crime, well that's a different story. Right. 789 00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:15,000 Speaker 1: But I want to know what is Mayor Brandon Johnson 790 00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:16,920 Speaker 1: going to do to stand up for Chicago. What is 791 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:19,680 Speaker 1: the Chicago Teachers Union going to do? Here's an idea today, 792 00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,960 Speaker 1: maybe the Chicago Teachers Union, instead of talking about activism 793 00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:27,560 Speaker 1: and being such flamethrowing liberals, that you teach kids. It's 794 00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 1: okay to teach kids to protest. It's okay to protest, 795 00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:34,720 Speaker 1: but don't do so at the behest of your life. 796 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:39,040 Speaker 1: Don't go somewhere where something bad might happen. Go there, 797 00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:43,359 Speaker 1: don't tussle with law enforcement, right, you know you have 798 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,400 Speaker 1: you know, I always say I have the right to 799 00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:49,440 Speaker 1: remain silent. Sometimes I don't have the ability, but don't 800 00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:51,399 Speaker 1: do it where you might get your ass kicked. That's 801 00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:53,080 Speaker 1: the golden rule. And I think we live in a 802 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:56,719 Speaker 1: society now where you know, moms and dads. You teach 803 00:41:56,760 --> 00:41:59,520 Speaker 1: your kids that everything's okay no matter what they want. 804 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:01,920 Speaker 1: Right If they want to have a bag of Cheetos 805 00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:04,560 Speaker 1: and watch the Golden Girls, well that's cool, let's do that. 806 00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:06,960 Speaker 1: But the thing is is teach them right from wrong 807 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:10,360 Speaker 1: and teach them what the outcome could be. Should you 808 00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:12,640 Speaker 1: make a stupid decision, you shouldn't have to pay for 809 00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:16,440 Speaker 1: it with your life, but you just may. And that's sad. 810 00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:19,319 Speaker 1: But you need to tell these kids, especially your liberal 811 00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:21,719 Speaker 1: kids liberally you're thirty. That's the way it used to be, 812 00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 1: is that something might go wrong should you do and 813 00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:30,400 Speaker 1: get involved with getting into a fight with immigration officials 814 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:33,319 Speaker 1: or Chicago police or the FBI or anyone else. I 815 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 1: don't know why you'd want to try to do that. 816 00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 1: It just defies your stupidity. Man, We're glad you're here 817 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:41,640 Speaker 1: this morning. Appreciate you listening to WLSA MA ninety.

I want to talk about some of the 824 00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:58,640 Speaker 1: things that you're going through, because all we hear about 825 00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:01,440 Speaker 1: is my crap. Next got a storm of brewin every 826 00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:04,399 Speaker 1: now and then too, if you're cool to talk about that. 827 00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:06,880 Speaker 1: I think we're at that point in our lives, and 828 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:08,600 Speaker 1: I've been there for a while now where we're taking 829 00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:11,640 Speaker 1: care of our folks. Right. But I just talked to 830 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:15,480 Speaker 1: my visiting Angel, Gina, who's taking care of path this morning. 831 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:17,600 Speaker 1: I said, when you hear mom wake up, make sure 832 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:20,400 Speaker 1: that she doesn't come down the stairs on her own 833 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:24,319 Speaker 1: because she thinks she's superwoman. Right. But I got so 834 00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:27,680 Speaker 1: much I need to talk to you about with aging parents. 835 00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:31,840 Speaker 1: And again I called Dibbs on the visiting Angel, the 836 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:35,920 Speaker 1: sponsors endorsement, doorsement. My mom's like, what's that bracelet you 837 00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:38,280 Speaker 1: got me? I said, Mom, it stands for the Department 838 00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:44,240 Speaker 1: of Natural Resources. Don't worry about it, that's your fishing license. Meanwhile, Saturday, 839 00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:46,920 Speaker 1: when I heard she fell, I was already calling David A. 840 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:50,319 Speaker 1: Colsak over there at time two dot pro, David, can 841 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:51,640 Speaker 1: you get me a deal? I don't know what the 842 00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:53,400 Speaker 1: hell's going on here? She's in good health. Do I 843 00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:57,959 Speaker 1: joke because it alleviates my concern for her? Hey, brother, 844 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 1: how are you? David Colsack here from a turned pro 845 00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:04,120 Speaker 1: always here to kick off tyree Tuesday, buddy. I don't 846 00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:08,560 Speaker 1: know if I hit send on the first segment we 847 00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:11,400 Speaker 1: ever did with David, he talked about contrail, So now 848 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:14,000 Speaker 1: whenever I see one, I send it to him. And 849 00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:17,000 Speaker 1: I had a beautiful one and David, I can't remember 850 00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:18,440 Speaker 1: if I hit sen or not, but I will do 851 00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 1: that later on today. How are you, pal? 852 00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:24,000 Speaker 4: I'm good? And they're chemtrails, not contrail cam trails. 853 00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:27,799 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm sorry, so good? What do we I 854 00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:31,640 Speaker 1: know where we're going to go today? This ridiculousness that 855 00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:34,719 Speaker 1: we're seeing not only in Minneapolis. It seems to be 856 00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:39,040 Speaker 1: a thing where blue states want to rise up against 857 00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:42,160 Speaker 1: the machine. And here in Chicago you got mayor BJ again, 858 00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:45,360 Speaker 1: the lowest rated BJ in the history, you know, talking 859 00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:48,240 Speaker 1: about how we need to rise up against the machine. 860 00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:52,400 Speaker 1: And you need the Chicago Teachers Union out here teaching 861 00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:54,520 Speaker 1: kids how to protest. But what they never seem to 862 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:58,640 Speaker 1: do locally here is make this city better for the 863 00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:01,240 Speaker 1: people that live here. And that's just that just haunks 864 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:03,840 Speaker 1: me off. And that's my TI rate here on a 865 00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:05,879 Speaker 1: tire rade Tuesday. But the floor is now yours, sir, 866 00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:06,839 Speaker 1: I'll let you take over. 867 00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:09,840 Speaker 4: Well, last week I talked about the Insurrection Act of 868 00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 4: how it should be invoked. I'll still make that case today. 869 00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:16,840 Speaker 4: Do you remember back during COVID when Tim Walls ordered 870 00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,319 Speaker 4: the National Guard to shoot people just for being on 871 00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:21,040 Speaker 4: their front porches. Do you remember that time? 872 00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:23,719 Speaker 1: Hey, yeah, you know what, Yes. 873 00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:25,480 Speaker 4: The irony here is just amazing. It's like that the 874 00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:28,280 Speaker 4: guy wants everybody to stay inside their houses because of COVID, 875 00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:30,439 Speaker 4: and I'm going to shoot you if you don't stay 876 00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:33,840 Speaker 4: in your house. And now I'm going to protect illegal 877 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:37,360 Speaker 4: aliens and rapists and pedophiles. I mean, it's just it's insane. 878 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:40,399 Speaker 1: It makes no sense. And you look at what's going 879 00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:43,480 Speaker 1: on in Minnesota and you say, Okay, why why is 880 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:46,399 Speaker 1: it that you can have you know, and protests are fine, right, 881 00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:49,040 Speaker 1: protests are going to go on to the end of days, 882 00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:52,120 Speaker 1: But why is it that the ones in Minnesota, whether 883 00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:55,239 Speaker 1: it's George Floyd or this seemed to always take it 884 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:58,120 Speaker 1: to the next level of destroying stuff. I mean, David, 885 00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:01,240 Speaker 1: they've destroyed so much stuff in Minnesota that now they're 886 00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:03,640 Speaker 1: going back and burning down places that they already lit 887 00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:04,480 Speaker 1: on fire before. 888 00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:07,279 Speaker 4: And well, I think the most important to understand here 889 00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:13,200 Speaker 4: is that the whole environment there in Minnesota was created 890 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:17,560 Speaker 4: to create this fraudulent system. And that's the whole problem. 891 00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:20,200 Speaker 4: Why they're so paranoid up there is because they're all 892 00:46:20,239 --> 00:46:22,759 Speaker 4: guilty of that. I mean, this guy comes to this 893 00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:25,440 Speaker 4: protest with a gun and no ID. He's got two 894 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:29,400 Speaker 4: extra magazines to combine that open carry with the aggressive 895 00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:32,200 Speaker 4: behavior where he pushed an ice agent, reminding everybody that 896 00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:34,520 Speaker 4: if you play stupid games, you win stupid prizes. And 897 00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:37,000 Speaker 4: as they say, he fought the law and the law won. 898 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:39,320 Speaker 4: And you could say that he died doing what he 899 00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 4: loved the most, trying to prevent illegal aliens, rapists, and 900 00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:44,560 Speaker 4: pedophiles from being arrested. But the bottom line is he 901 00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:46,440 Speaker 4: got second place in the quick draw competition. 902 00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:51,200 Speaker 1: You know, really, you bring up so many good points, 903 00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:53,480 Speaker 1: and I talk about this here locally all the time. 904 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:58,200 Speaker 1: Is you have a Juliana Stratton who's running for Senate, 905 00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:00,120 Speaker 1: and all she wants to do is she is a 906 00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:02,680 Speaker 1: modern day Oprah. You get free stuff, and you get 907 00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:05,080 Speaker 1: free stuff, and you get twenty five dollars minimum wage. 908 00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:07,440 Speaker 1: And then you've got guys like JB. Pritzker who they 909 00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:10,839 Speaker 1: stand on their little soapbox reinforced by the way, and 910 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:14,680 Speaker 1: they say, you know what ice needs to be, You 911 00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:17,040 Speaker 1: know it needs to be. We need to do away 912 00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:19,439 Speaker 1: with it Ice. We're gonna abolish it. But this guy 913 00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:24,080 Speaker 1: doesn't come up with any alternative solutions to what are 914 00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:27,840 Speaker 1: you gonna do? And is this what you want to have? JB. Pritzker? 915 00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:30,880 Speaker 1: Do you want a state that devolves into chaos and 916 00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:33,080 Speaker 1: doesn't have any law and order and we let people 917 00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:35,319 Speaker 1: just roam the streets doing whatever the hell they want. 918 00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:38,040 Speaker 1: People can come here illegally. This is a direct effect 919 00:47:38,080 --> 00:47:41,000 Speaker 1: of Joe Biden and his policies, and we're now soaking 920 00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:43,319 Speaker 1: in it. And the ridiculous thing is this guys like 921 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:46,920 Speaker 1: Alex Soros and his old man are paying people to 922 00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:49,400 Speaker 1: try to convince people that this is Trump's fault when 923 00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:51,360 Speaker 1: it's not truly. 924 00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:53,799 Speaker 4: You know, these agitators are all white, and they're all 925 00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:55,960 Speaker 4: well organized. They're not black, they're not browned. 926 00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:58,719 Speaker 1: I hate white people. I hate white people, David. 927 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:03,759 Speaker 4: No, I don't. I love it. It's got warming stations 928 00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:06,680 Speaker 4: with hot chocolate and clothing and supplies. I mean, look 929 00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:08,880 Speaker 4: at that signal chat that had been infiltrated. You know 930 00:48:08,920 --> 00:48:12,359 Speaker 4: one of the admins is Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan. That 931 00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:14,800 Speaker 4: means the state of Minnesota is behind all these protests. 932 00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:17,600 Speaker 4: It's not organic. It runs to the very top. You know, 933 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:20,000 Speaker 4: another person involved in that signal chat is a list 934 00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:22,280 Speaker 4: of Pollock, who's an employee of the Department of Education 935 00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:25,400 Speaker 4: of Minnesota. Then he've got that dumb Minnesota Senate candidate 936 00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:27,120 Speaker 4: who is dumb enough to use the selfie as an 937 00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:31,239 Speaker 4: avatar on that chat. And her name's anti Anita Smithson, 938 00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:33,320 Speaker 4: I think, and a leader of the signal chat was 939 00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:36,799 Speaker 4: the campaign strategist for Timmy the Tampon Walfs. So you know, 940 00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:40,919 Speaker 4: the writers in Minneapolis have access to license plate databases, 941 00:48:41,080 --> 00:48:44,440 Speaker 4: which proves that state involvement. So this is a state 942 00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:47,200 Speaker 4: funded insurrection at this point, and we must invoke that 943 00:48:47,239 --> 00:48:50,040 Speaker 4: Insurrection Act soon. I suspect it's all about optics though, 944 00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:52,800 Speaker 4: at this point, once the optics are favorable, I suspect 945 00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:54,600 Speaker 4: that Trump will pull the trigger. They just have to 946 00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:57,040 Speaker 4: let it boil over, that would be my guest. So 947 00:48:57,120 --> 00:48:59,680 Speaker 4: then you've got Tom Homan. He's such a badass. He's 948 00:48:59,680 --> 00:49:02,280 Speaker 4: going up there from Trump and he's going to supposedly 949 00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:05,319 Speaker 4: help coordinate the fraud investigations. They say it's over one 950 00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:08,600 Speaker 4: hundred billion dollars in fraud, and it dwarfs what's happening 951 00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:11,400 Speaker 4: in California and other states. I'm sure Illinois just is corrupt. 952 00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:12,279 Speaker 4: I mean got to be. 953 00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:14,000 Speaker 1: And I think that's why a lot of these blue 954 00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:17,400 Speaker 1: state governors are hand in hand, you know, coddling Timmy Walls. 955 00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:19,399 Speaker 1: Remember when he said he was not going to run again, 956 00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:24,520 Speaker 1: which was news that was broke on WLS, And all 957 00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:27,360 Speaker 1: of a sudden, everybody's writing love letter soliloquies to what 958 00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:30,160 Speaker 1: a great guy Tim Walls was, whether that was Pritzker, 959 00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:33,960 Speaker 1: whether that was Evers in Wisconsin. And I think it's 960 00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:36,520 Speaker 1: because the level of fraud that we're going to find 961 00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:39,279 Speaker 1: from this is so attached to these blue states. There's 962 00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:40,959 Speaker 1: going to be a lot of people that are caught 963 00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:42,759 Speaker 1: up in this, and we're just at the tip of 964 00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:45,000 Speaker 1: the iceberg in Minnesota. And let me tell you brought 965 00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:47,799 Speaker 1: it up Flan One. They're on that signal chat app. 966 00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:51,120 Speaker 1: If this turns out to be true, that this network 967 00:49:51,160 --> 00:49:55,480 Speaker 1: of signal chat apps is being tipped off by government officials, 968 00:49:55,880 --> 00:49:59,080 Speaker 1: that's when you need to see people go to jail. 969 00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:01,959 Speaker 1: That's treasonous right there. And you're absolutely right with who's 970 00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:06,520 Speaker 1: paying for these panera bread, you know, pastry trays that 971 00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:10,400 Speaker 1: they're showing up at these protests with and bringing soup 972 00:50:10,440 --> 00:50:14,160 Speaker 1: and blankets, and you know, these protests outside hotels and 973 00:50:14,200 --> 00:50:18,359 Speaker 1: motels where they think ICE agents are trying to get 974 00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:22,560 Speaker 1: rest and many people arrested last night finally by the 975 00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:25,799 Speaker 1: Minneapolis Police Department, where the chief has nice arms, but 976 00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:28,960 Speaker 1: he can't do a damn thing to keep his town safe. 977 00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:32,279 Speaker 1: It's absolutely ridiculous, David, you got me all worked up. 978 00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:35,920 Speaker 4: Well, what's going on up in Minnesota is one hundred 979 00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:39,279 Speaker 4: times more of an insurrection than January sixth ever was. 980 00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:42,360 Speaker 4: I mean, it's just it's amazing. Riders are destroying the 981 00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:45,279 Speaker 4: hotel that they believe ICE agents are staying and there's 982 00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:47,480 Speaker 4: no evidence suggests that there's actually sitting there. And did 983 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:50,160 Speaker 4: you hear about Ted Nugent. Ted NuGen said that these 984 00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:53,080 Speaker 4: ice agents couldn't go into these diners and local restaurants 985 00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:55,520 Speaker 4: and all of that.

Oh and and we'd always get the 1309 01:07:28,960 --> 01:07:30,720 Speaker 1: better of it with these two guys, because don't know, 1310 01:07:30,840 --> 01:07:34,360 Speaker 1: Howell was a maniac and and I was his hit man. 1311 01:07:35,200 --> 01:07:38,640 Speaker 1: But but Terry Bores brought to sports radio something that 1312 01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:42,600 Speaker 1: hadn't been done before. He was a writer first and foremost. 1313 01:07:42,720 --> 01:07:46,120 Speaker 1: That's right, very quick, you know, sharp tongue, sharp pen. 1314 01:07:46,720 --> 01:07:48,480 Speaker 1: It was with the Sun Times. He was he was 1315 01:07:48,520 --> 01:07:50,720 Speaker 1: with the Times, and he he came up with the 1316 01:07:51,160 --> 01:07:53,640 Speaker 1: with the Bears eighty five Bears, and then with the 1317 01:07:53,760 --> 01:07:56,240 Speaker 1: Bulls teams in the nineties, and then made that switch 1318 01:07:56,720 --> 01:08:01,160 Speaker 1: to working in the midday, first with Dan Neil, I believe, 1319 01:08:01,320 --> 01:08:04,440 Speaker 1: then for a long time with Dan Bernstein. And I 1320 01:08:04,480 --> 01:08:06,760 Speaker 1: know a lot of people don't like Dan Bernstein. I've 1321 01:08:06,800 --> 01:08:10,920 Speaker 1: had no significant problems with Dan. I know he doesn't 1322 01:08:10,920 --> 01:08:13,400 Speaker 1: think the way I do. But that doesn't mean I 1323 01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:16,200 Speaker 1: don't appreciate him for what he's done in town. It's 1324 01:08:16,240 --> 01:08:18,080 Speaker 1: a hard business and if you can be here for 1325 01:08:18,120 --> 01:08:20,720 Speaker 1: a certain amount of time doing it, you've done it. 1326 01:08:20,760 --> 01:08:23,040 Speaker 1: Because chicag was a hard nut to crack when it 1327 01:08:23,080 --> 01:08:28,920 Speaker 1: comes to radio. But Bores had fought cancer for a 1328 01:08:28,920 --> 01:08:30,960 Speaker 1: long time and we would support each other. We would 1329 01:08:30,960 --> 01:08:33,920 Speaker 1: support each other at charity events and things like that. 1330 01:08:34,040 --> 01:08:37,719 Speaker 1: So I just wanted to make a note to his family, 1331 01:08:37,720 --> 01:08:41,800 Speaker 1: to his twins that we feel the loss and it's tough. 1332 01:08:41,840 --> 01:08:44,760 Speaker 1: And I don't know if Sorels Radio over there will 1333 01:08:44,760 --> 01:08:47,240 Speaker 1: give him his just due, but they should because he 1334 01:08:47,400 --> 01:08:51,040 Speaker 1: was a monumental in shaping a significant radio station in 1335 01:08:51,080 --> 01:08:54,240 Speaker 1: the landscape of Chicago. So our friend Terry Bor has 1336 01:08:54,280 --> 01:08:57,360 Speaker 1: gone at seventy five years old, a valiant battle with cancer. 1337 01:08:57,400 --> 01:08:59,960 Speaker 1: Nobody loses a battle with cancer, right, It's a tough one, 1338 01:09:00,120 --> 01:09:03,080 Speaker 1: and he fought it is as good as anyone. And 1339 01:09:03,200 --> 01:09:05,439 Speaker 1: I know a lot of people like you know, inside 1340 01:09:05,520 --> 01:09:07,360 Speaker 1: radio names and things like that, had a very good 1341 01:09:07,360 --> 01:09:12,880 Speaker 1: relationship with Terry. So may he rest well. Speaking of 1342 01:09:12,920 --> 01:09:15,000 Speaker 1: sports in and around Chicago, now we heard that the 1343 01:09:15,000 --> 01:09:18,800 Speaker 1: President isn't going to go to the super Bowl. He 1344 01:09:18,840 --> 01:09:21,400 Speaker 1: doesn't like the halftime entertainment, and you know what, these 1345 01:09:21,400 --> 01:09:25,559 Speaker 1: guys don't like him, Why go somewhere where you're probably 1346 01:09:25,560 --> 01:09:28,600 Speaker 1: going to get chastised from the halftime crowd. Now, I 1347 01:09:28,680 --> 01:09:31,160 Speaker 1: will say I think if he went to the super Bowl, 1348 01:09:31,479 --> 01:09:34,559 Speaker 1: everywhere he goes as far as sporting events, whether that's 1349 01:09:34,640 --> 01:09:38,879 Speaker 1: live golf or whether that's you know, NASCAR, Daytona, Indye, 1350 01:09:38,880 --> 01:09:42,800 Speaker 1: people seem to love him. And that's a pretty big 1351 01:09:44,080 --> 01:09:47,080 Speaker 1: sample group when you're talking about seventy eighty ninety one 1352 01:09:47,120 --> 01:09:50,840 Speaker 1: hundred thousand people in anyone giving setting. But he's not 1353 01:09:50,920 --> 01:09:54,320 Speaker 1: going he doesn't like bad money and who else is there? 1354 01:09:54,320 --> 01:09:56,640 Speaker 1: Green Day He's not the fans of theirs. But I 1355 01:09:56,640 --> 01:09:58,640 Speaker 1: want to talk about the Bears because you know, you 1356 01:09:58,680 --> 01:10:00,680 Speaker 1: look at the way the Bears played the Rams, and 1357 01:10:00,720 --> 01:10:03,800 Speaker 1: I know that the field conditions were tough, right, not 1358 01:10:03,840 --> 01:10:07,080 Speaker 1: making any excuses, the Rams obviously were the better team. 1359 01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:09,280 Speaker 1: You know, the Bears have some things that they need 1360 01:10:09,320 --> 01:10:11,320 Speaker 1: to work on in the offseason. I think they're going 1361 01:10:11,360 --> 01:10:14,519 Speaker 1: to be Okay, boy, you're Green Bay Packers. They're going 1362 01:10:14,560 --> 01:10:18,120 Speaker 1: through some changes. Yeah, well, you know, but so were 1363 01:10:18,120 --> 01:10:20,800 Speaker 1: the Bears. The Bears just lost al Harris. Al's going 1364 01:10:20,840 --> 01:10:23,200 Speaker 1: back up to the Green and Gold. But back to 1365 01:10:23,240 --> 01:10:27,439 Speaker 1: the stadium issue. And when Mayor Brad Stevens was on 1366 01:10:27,520 --> 01:10:29,680 Speaker 1: with us today you were getting your nails done. He 1367 01:10:29,760 --> 01:10:33,840 Speaker 1: brought up a point about Sofi Stadium in La Right. 1368 01:10:33,880 --> 01:10:38,840 Speaker 1: Sofi Stadium, I believe, is that where the Rams play fight. Yeah, 1369 01:10:38,840 --> 01:10:41,160 Speaker 1: the Rams play at so Fi. It's actually in Inglewood. 1370 01:10:41,800 --> 01:10:45,400 Speaker 1: So their tax bill is eight to ten million dollars. 1371 01:10:45,479 --> 01:10:49,479 Speaker 1: Property tax bill is eight to ten million dollars a year. Now, 1372 01:10:49,680 --> 01:10:52,559 Speaker 1: make no mistake, the owner of the Rams paid for 1373 01:10:52,600 --> 01:10:55,559 Speaker 1: that facility. They didn't look for anybody to help pay 1374 01:10:55,600 --> 01:10:58,240 Speaker 1: for it. Or I'm sure there's there's TIFFs and tax 1375 01:10:58,320 --> 01:11:00,960 Speaker 1: breaks along the way. You know what the price is 1376 01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:03,720 Speaker 1: the annual tax bill would be in Arlington Heights on 1377 01:11:03,760 --> 01:11:08,439 Speaker 1: this proposed Bear stadium, Oh two and a half, two 1378 01:11:08,479 --> 01:11:11,400 Speaker 1: and a half what mil it's one hundred to two 1379 01:11:11,479 --> 01:11:16,559 Speaker 1: hundred million. What one hundred to two hundred million dollars. Well, 1380 01:11:16,560 --> 01:11:21,080 Speaker 1: that seems like that's the problem and there is the 1381 01:11:21,160 --> 01:11:24,479 Speaker 1: stumbling block. So the local governments up there are saying, hey, 1382 01:11:24,479 --> 01:11:26,040 Speaker 1: we need to work with the Bear so we can 1383 01:11:26,080 --> 01:11:27,720 Speaker 1: see if we can't. Now it would seem to me 1384 01:11:27,800 --> 01:11:30,320 Speaker 1: that if you did bring the Bears to Arlington Heights, 1385 01:11:30,360 --> 01:11:33,080 Speaker 1: and I would love And I know the Arlington Heights 1386 01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:35,960 Speaker 1: mayor isn't talking on this. He doesn't talk on this subject, 1387 01:11:35,960 --> 01:11:38,439 Speaker 1: and I'd like to know why, because it would seem 1388 01:11:38,479 --> 01:11:40,360 Speaker 1: to me if you could lure them to your town, 1389 01:11:40,600 --> 01:11:43,439 Speaker 1: there has to be a There has to be an 1390 01:11:43,520 --> 01:11:47,200 Speaker 1: upside to that, doesn't there Otherwise? Is Arlington Park just 1391 01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:49,880 Speaker 1: sit empty? It's a beautiful piece of land, make a 1392 01:11:49,960 --> 01:11:52,720 Speaker 1: nice hey would make a nice local forest preserve, right, 1393 01:11:53,280 --> 01:11:55,639 Speaker 1: Maybe that's where we could have a staycation or a vacation. 1394 01:11:55,920 --> 01:11:59,280 Speaker 1: You could take WLS listeners up there. But you're gonna 1395 01:11:59,280 --> 01:12:01,280 Speaker 1: have to do something with it. And that is why 1396 01:12:02,439 --> 01:12:05,160 Speaker 1: a lot of people are to the point of, boy, 1397 01:12:05,200 --> 01:12:08,240 Speaker 1: the Chicago Bears, they are never going to move over 1398 01:12:08,240 --> 01:12:10,439 Speaker 1: the state line to Hammond or Gary or anywhere else? 1399 01:12:10,439 --> 01:12:13,559 Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? When you look at the when 1400 01:12:13,600 --> 01:12:16,160 Speaker 1: you look at the incentives that Indiana is offering this team, 1401 01:12:16,560 --> 01:12:21,439 Speaker 1: a team that is a storied franchise, but they and 1402 01:12:21,479 --> 01:12:23,920 Speaker 1: again this is something that Brad Stevens when we were 1403 01:12:23,920 --> 01:12:25,960 Speaker 1: talking to him, I believe you speaking to us from 1404 01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:30,599 Speaker 1: his state representative point of view is the Bears are 1405 01:12:30,600 --> 01:12:33,120 Speaker 1: worth a ton of money, but it's the organization, right. 1406 01:12:34,280 --> 01:12:37,639 Speaker 1: They don't generate billions and billions and billions of dollars 1407 01:12:37,760 --> 01:12:41,040 Speaker 1: unless they sell the team. So it's a very real 1408 01:12:41,080 --> 01:12:44,439 Speaker 1: possibility that this team could go to Indiana, and I 1409 01:12:44,520 --> 01:12:47,160 Speaker 1: don't I really don't care where they play. 1410 01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:51,240 Speaker 7: So according to Forbes, the gate receipts from last year 1411 01:12:51,600 --> 01:12:56,760 Speaker 7: last season for the Bears was ninety nine million. Now 1412 01:12:56,800 --> 01:13:01,519 Speaker 7: that's just the gate receipts, right. Revenue last year total 1413 01:13:01,600 --> 01:13:05,479 Speaker 7: six hundred and twenty nine million. So now if you're 1414 01:13:05,479 --> 01:13:09,759 Speaker 7: paying two hundred million in property taxes, I mean that's. 1415 01:13:09,640 --> 01:13:13,000 Speaker 1: A core that's a third of your operating budget. Yeah, 1416 01:13:13,200 --> 01:13:13,880 Speaker 1: and that's the. 1417 01:13:13,840 --> 01:13:18,160 Speaker 7: Well operating budget though is eighty million? Think about that, 1418 01:13:19,680 --> 01:13:22,680 Speaker 7: So you're operating budget going to Arlington Heights went from 1419 01:13:22,720 --> 01:13:24,840 Speaker 7: eighty million to two hundred and eighty million. 1420 01:13:25,439 --> 01:13:26,960 Speaker 1: Now you tell me why the Bears wouldn't go to 1421 01:13:27,040 --> 01:13:33,160 Speaker 1: Indiana three one two five ninety one eighty nine hundred. Yeah, 1422 01:13:33,200 --> 01:13:34,880 Speaker 1: you know it the cost to do it. And this 1423 01:13:34,920 --> 01:13:37,320 Speaker 1: is this is what happens. It just shows you how 1424 01:13:37,600 --> 01:13:41,679 Speaker 1: Illinois it's it's just Illinois, Chicago, but it's a whole 1425 01:13:41,720 --> 01:13:45,240 Speaker 1: damn state. Well, you wonder, and I've got this on 1426 01:13:45,320 --> 01:13:49,000 Speaker 1: good authority that here in the city that there has 1427 01:13:49,040 --> 01:13:50,840 Speaker 1: been no and you were in this meeting where we 1428 01:13:50,880 --> 01:13:55,439 Speaker 1: heard this, there has been no new building occupancy permits 1429 01:13:55,439 --> 01:13:58,679 Speaker 1: for a new business this point into the new year, right, 1430 01:13:59,120 --> 01:14:02,719 Speaker 1: meaning no new businesses have come to Chicago this new year. 1431 01:14:04,080 --> 01:14:10,920 Speaker 1: And we heard that in a restructuring contracted, you know, 1432 01:14:11,000 --> 01:14:13,759 Speaker 1: for the building we're in right, which is empty empty. 1433 01:14:14,880 --> 01:14:17,600 Speaker 1: I know, doing a great job. Jab keep it up, 1434 01:14:17,680 --> 01:14:22,080 Speaker 1: my man, roly Poly. We're going to talk with Jeff 1435 01:14:22,120 --> 01:14:25,320 Speaker 1: Mark or Jeff is the guy that well, he drives 1436 01:14:25,360 --> 01:14:27,240 Speaker 1: the boats, he drives the trucks, he parks them, he 1437 01:14:27,240 --> 01:14:29,240 Speaker 1: shines them, he takes your tickets at the door the 1438 01:14:29,240 --> 01:14:32,120 Speaker 1: boat shows coming to Chicago, and this always lets you 1439 01:14:32,160 --> 01:14:37,000 Speaker 1: know that spring is just kind of accident that's being worked. There. 1440 01:14:37,920 --> 01:14:40,000 Speaker 7: Next traffic update at the bottom of the hour. 1441 01:14:40,720 --> 01:14:42,360 Speaker 1: Man Nick, I don't know how many times you've been, 1442 01:14:42,400 --> 01:14:44,600 Speaker 1: but I love I love Minnesota.

Otherwise it's potato fields. And one time 1445 01:14:49,880 --> 01:14:51,760 Speaker 1: a friend of mine, Kurt, said, you know, Ray we 1446 01:14:51,800 --> 01:14:54,160 Speaker 1: were going to a snowmobile race in Park Rapids and 1447 01:14:54,200 --> 01:14:55,920 Speaker 1: he said to me, he goes, it's so barren out here, 1448 01:14:55,960 --> 01:14:57,960 Speaker 1: you could watch your dog run away for three days. 1449 01:14:58,760 --> 01:15:02,200 Speaker 1: What's going on?

We much said, we don't 1469 01:15:54,040 --> 01:15:57,160 Speaker 1: pay that much attention to what's going on over in Minneapolis, 1470 01:15:57,160 --> 01:16:00,280 Speaker 1: and I thought, well, that's odd because it's making national news. 1471 01:16:00,320 --> 01:16:03,080 Speaker 1: Can you kind of give us an expert opinion on 1472 01:16:03,160 --> 01:16:05,759 Speaker 1: your take, because you're there, you you're in that area, 1473 01:16:05,840 --> 01:16:08,400 Speaker 1: you know it, you live there. What are we not 1474 01:16:08,560 --> 01:16:10,000 Speaker 1: seeing or hearing about in all of this? 1475 01:16:11,520 --> 01:16:11,600 Speaker 4: Uh? 1476 01:16:11,720 --> 01:16:14,559 Speaker 16: Well, I think, you know, I think what your encounter 1477 01:16:14,680 --> 01:16:17,400 Speaker 16: is not unusual. I think a lot of people are 1478 01:16:17,520 --> 01:16:21,920 Speaker 16: really fed up with the Twin Cities metro area really 1479 01:16:22,080 --> 01:16:25,920 Speaker 16: being a big black hole of suck and drawing all 1480 01:16:25,960 --> 01:16:31,479 Speaker 16: the negative attention. I mean, it's it's really disheartening for 1481 01:16:31,560 --> 01:16:33,879 Speaker 16: people that just want to live normal lives to see 1482 01:16:34,200 --> 01:16:37,920 Speaker 16: people constantly out in the streets seeing can't you can't 1483 01:16:37,960 --> 01:16:41,599 Speaker 16: go to the grocery store or the you know, your 1484 01:16:41,640 --> 01:16:46,160 Speaker 16: big box stores without being inundated with political messaging and 1485 01:16:46,240 --> 01:16:48,920 Speaker 16: being forced if you don't take a side, and you're 1486 01:16:48,960 --> 01:16:54,360 Speaker 16: the enemy, and it's it's everywhere, it's it's almost inescapable, 1487 01:16:54,400 --> 01:16:55,240 Speaker 16: and it's suffocating. 1488 01:16:55,479 --> 01:16:57,880 Speaker 1: But why is it? Why is it? Why is it 1489 01:16:58,000 --> 01:17:01,040 Speaker 1: so it's you know, Chicago's messed up town, There's no 1490 01:17:01,040 --> 01:17:04,240 Speaker 1: doubt about it. We certainly have our share of problems here, 1491 01:17:04,240 --> 01:17:06,559 Speaker 1: but there's nothing like what you described. 1492 01:17:06,600 --> 01:17:06,720 Speaker 4: Now. 1493 01:17:06,760 --> 01:17:08,840 Speaker 1: There may be if you go to the broad View 1494 01:17:08,920 --> 01:17:11,320 Speaker 1: ICE Attention Center, it might get a little bit dicey, 1495 01:17:11,400 --> 01:17:14,559 Speaker 1: but you know, we know that by and large, people 1496 01:17:14,600 --> 01:17:16,640 Speaker 1: aren't going down the street hating on each other. But 1497 01:17:16,680 --> 01:17:18,559 Speaker 1: it certainly sounds like that's the way it is there. 1498 01:17:19,920 --> 01:17:23,479 Speaker 16: Yeah, you know, I mean it certainly is concentrated in 1499 01:17:23,520 --> 01:17:25,559 Speaker 16: a few areas. You know, I go to I mentioned 1500 01:17:25,560 --> 01:17:28,880 Speaker 16: my my piece. We go to church not far from 1501 01:17:28,880 --> 01:17:32,479 Speaker 16: the Whipple Federal Building where there's been a lot of 1502 01:17:32,920 --> 01:17:36,400 Speaker 16: kind of madness and clashes with between ICE and these 1503 01:17:36,840 --> 01:17:38,280 Speaker 16: I guess you can call them protesters, but. 1504 01:17:38,479 --> 01:17:39,960 Speaker 1: They're really just a agitators. 1505 01:17:40,040 --> 01:17:44,800 Speaker 16: Yeah, yeah, agitators. And you know, it's one thing to 1506 01:17:45,400 --> 01:17:47,519 Speaker 16: have your kids in the car and you know, we 1507 01:17:47,600 --> 01:17:50,120 Speaker 16: have Patriot plates and we drive kind of a big 1508 01:17:50,200 --> 01:17:52,680 Speaker 16: SUV and you never know what people are going to do. 1509 01:17:52,720 --> 01:17:56,120 Speaker 16: We'll throw at you or assume about you because of 1510 01:17:57,840 --> 01:18:01,200 Speaker 16: where you are and what you're doing. And uh, it's 1511 01:18:01,280 --> 01:18:05,840 Speaker 16: it's it's really it just leaches in in everywhere you know, 1512 01:18:06,080 --> 01:18:12,320 Speaker 16: and it's uh in the metro area anyway. So I think, uh, 1513 01:18:12,640 --> 01:18:14,760 Speaker 16: most people just after a while, they just want to 1514 01:18:14,800 --> 01:18:17,559 Speaker 16: tune it out and they just stop. And the cold 1515 01:18:17,600 --> 01:18:21,640 Speaker 16: isn't helping, and people are agitated, and uh, you know, 1516 01:18:21,800 --> 01:18:25,240 Speaker 16: it's it's really just become a flashpoint and people, you know, 1517 01:18:25,520 --> 01:18:28,960 Speaker 16: the Summer of Love wasn't that far away, right, we 1518 01:18:29,000 --> 01:18:32,400 Speaker 16: were trying to get back on our feet, and Minneapolis 1519 01:18:32,400 --> 01:18:35,600 Speaker 16: still hasn't recovered, and we got businesses closing. We have 1520 01:18:36,360 --> 01:18:42,920 Speaker 16: elected even even more preposterous uh leaders, you know. And 1521 01:18:43,120 --> 01:18:49,479 Speaker 16: when when Mayor Fry was considered the moderate, I guess, uh, 1522 01:18:49,560 --> 01:18:51,400 Speaker 16: in the in the race, you know, you kind of 1523 01:18:51,439 --> 01:18:52,080 Speaker 16: have a problem. 1524 01:18:53,120 --> 01:18:56,120 Speaker 1: But if that guy's a moderate, my gosh, uh, you know, 1525 01:18:56,160 --> 01:18:58,040 Speaker 1: And and I'll never forget that guy, you know, we 1526 01:18:58,080 --> 01:18:59,840 Speaker 1: don't we don't, you know what, I will bow and 1527 01:19:00,120 --> 01:19:01,680 Speaker 1: to my lord. That's it. I'm not going to take 1528 01:19:01,680 --> 01:19:03,840 Speaker 1: a knee for anybody else. I'm sorry, But. 1529 01:19:05,920 --> 01:19:07,640 Speaker 16: George Floyd, I guess. 1530 01:19:08,280 --> 01:19:10,360 Speaker 1: You know, it's just ridiculous, you know, But we used 1531 01:19:10,360 --> 01:19:14,160 Speaker 1: to call this kind of weather protest repellent because nobody 1532 01:19:14,160 --> 01:19:15,679 Speaker 1: wanted to go out when it was cold or snow. 1533 01:19:15,720 --> 01:19:18,240 Speaker 1: But my gosh, there's certain are shows there, certainly are 1534 01:19:18,280 --> 01:19:20,479 Speaker 1: showing up and it has been cold up there in 1535 01:19:20,520 --> 01:19:22,760 Speaker 1: the in the Twin Cities.

You know, people think 1563 01:21:00,479 --> 01:21:03,439 Speaker 16: it's this random folks out in the neighborhood getting together. 1564 01:21:03,479 --> 01:21:06,240 Speaker 16: I mean, there's probably just maybe a handful, but this 1565 01:21:06,320 --> 01:21:10,840 Speaker 16: is a very organized, deliberate attempt to disrupt legitimate law 1566 01:21:10,880 --> 01:21:12,240 Speaker 16: enforcement operation. 1567 01:21:12,320 --> 01:21:14,120 Speaker 1: You know, my partner and I here on the radio, 1568 01:21:14,320 --> 01:21:16,559 Speaker 1: we're lunatics, and I'm sure he has some things in 1569 01:21:16,560 --> 01:21:18,280 Speaker 1: his garage we don't want to talk about.

Yeah, we were talking about taxes 1649 01:25:24,560 --> 01:25:28,439 Speaker 1: being cut in Florida, you know, precipitously too, to save 1650 01:25:28,439 --> 01:25:30,679 Speaker 1: people money. That's why more people are going there. Although 1651 01:25:30,680 --> 01:25:33,280 Speaker 1: our friend Evan Brown from Foxes you can't drive anywhere 1652 01:25:33,320 --> 01:25:35,120 Speaker 1: because there's so many people that have, you know, that 1653 01:25:35,200 --> 01:25:37,840 Speaker 1: have come to the state of Florida. We don't necessarily 1654 01:25:37,920 --> 01:25:41,559 Speaker 1: have that problem here, although the ikes usually pretty crowded, 1655 01:25:41,600 --> 01:25:44,600 Speaker 1: at least in my estimation. So tell me about the 1656 01:25:44,600 --> 01:25:45,719 Speaker 1: mosquito abatement problem. 1657 01:25:45,760 --> 01:25:49,200 Speaker 7: Well, in Cook County, you pay taxes that go towards 1658 01:25:49,200 --> 01:25:51,920 Speaker 7: the mosquitobatement program, or you. 1659 01:25:51,920 --> 01:25:54,040 Speaker 1: Don't want to get that Chicago River virus. 1660 01:25:53,840 --> 01:25:58,320 Speaker 7: The different districts, and so their total take from this 1661 01:25:58,360 --> 01:26:02,479 Speaker 7: is the latest numbers twenty twenty. Okay, they collected ten 1662 01:26:02,520 --> 01:26:12,000 Speaker 7: point seven million dollars in revenue, but they spent uh 1663 01:26:12,520 --> 01:26:16,000 Speaker 7: an administrator, what do you call it? 1664 01:26:16,080 --> 01:26:18,280 Speaker 1: Thanks for doing your thanks for doing our due diligence 1665 01:26:18,320 --> 01:26:18,559 Speaker 1: on this. 1666 01:26:19,280 --> 01:26:24,160 Speaker 7: They spent five point three million dollars on their salaries and. 1667 01:26:24,120 --> 01:26:28,680 Speaker 1: Benefits and the rest is on deep Yeah, and the 1668 01:26:28,720 --> 01:26:32,600 Speaker 1: rest is on deet. So I really think that's a 1669 01:26:32,640 --> 01:26:34,880 Speaker 1: lot of money to be paying out for some guys 1670 01:26:34,920 --> 01:26:37,839 Speaker 1: who drive around trucks that the kids follow when there's fumes. 1671 01:26:37,960 --> 01:26:39,040 Speaker 1: Did you used to do that when you were a 1672 01:26:39,080 --> 01:26:40,360 Speaker 1: kid a bike behind it? 1673 01:26:40,479 --> 01:26:40,639 Speaker 8: Yeah? 1674 01:26:40,840 --> 01:26:42,800 Speaker 1: Man, if that if that didn't kill you, nothing's going 1675 01:26:42,880 --> 01:26:44,400 Speaker 1: to kill you. Know why I am the way I 1676 01:26:44,439 --> 01:26:46,519 Speaker 1: am what we what if we do this to save 1677 01:26:46,720 --> 01:26:50,680 Speaker 1: taxpayers money in Chicago? Everybody gets a discount on a 1678 01:26:50,760 --> 01:26:54,160 Speaker 1: canna off and when we do the siren testing for 1679 01:26:54,240 --> 01:26:57,760 Speaker 1: the first Tuesday of every month, everybody just sprays the 1680 01:26:57,800 --> 01:27:00,640 Speaker 1: mosquito spray when the skeets start, and we saved the 1681 01:27:00,680 --> 01:27:04,519 Speaker 1: city some money. How bad would mosquitos really be in Chicago? 1682 01:27:04,520 --> 01:27:06,240 Speaker 1: If we didn't have a batement. Well, I don't know. 1683 01:27:06,479 --> 01:27:09,280 Speaker 7: You know, I know that Chicago was built upon swamp land, 1684 01:27:09,360 --> 01:27:12,000 Speaker 7: but I don't see any swamp land around anymore.
