And appreciate you being here now. 13 00:00:51,457 --> 00:00:53,177 Speaker 1: Thank you for having me. I appreciate it. 14 00:00:53,457 --> 00:00:57,697 Speaker 2: So let's jump right into it. It's interesting me you 15 00:00:57,817 --> 00:01:00,657 Speaker 2: went super viral a few years ago when you were 16 00:01:00,737 --> 00:01:03,737 Speaker 2: running for Congress of Memory Serves because you just did 17 00:01:03,737 --> 00:01:08,137 Speaker 2: this thing. As a person who lives in Baltimore area 18 00:01:08,457 --> 00:01:11,217 Speaker 2: and in Maryland, where you walk around Baltimore, you're like, 19 00:01:11,257 --> 00:01:13,137 Speaker 2: this is not good, Like, look what's going on in 20 00:01:13,137 --> 00:01:17,697 Speaker 2: this city. I can assume based on the crime numbers 21 00:01:17,737 --> 00:01:19,777 Speaker 2: which I have seen and keep a pretty close eye 22 00:01:19,817 --> 00:01:23,537 Speaker 2: on that things have not gotten markedly better there in 23 00:01:23,617 --> 00:01:27,657 Speaker 2: recent years, but this one is fascinating. Tell me about 24 00:01:27,697 --> 00:01:33,457 Speaker 2: the mayor of Baltimore suing car companies for making cars 25 00:01:34,177 --> 00:01:37,937 Speaker 2: that people find too easy to steal in Baltimore. 26 00:01:39,497 --> 00:01:42,057 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, buck, let me tell you this has been 27 00:01:42,377 --> 00:01:44,257 Speaker 1: just a clown show at the end of the day. 28 00:01:44,737 --> 00:01:46,977 Speaker 1: Since I read for Congress in twenty twenty, things have 29 00:01:47,057 --> 00:01:50,737 Speaker 1: only gotten worse, unfortunately, And a lot of times when 30 00:01:50,737 --> 00:01:52,817 Speaker 1: you're looking at the crime numbers, I don't think people 31 00:01:52,857 --> 00:01:55,497 Speaker 1: realize we have a lot of juveniles that are now 32 00:01:56,097 --> 00:01:58,697 Speaker 1: on the streets with gangs, they're dealing with drugs, they're 33 00:01:58,697 --> 00:02:01,577 Speaker 1: dealing with legal weapons, and so we have eighteen and 34 00:02:01,777 --> 00:02:04,337 Speaker 1: under that are like now in the spotlight in all 35 00:02:04,377 --> 00:02:07,137 Speaker 1: of this. But right now our mayor, Mayor Brandon Scott, 36 00:02:07,177 --> 00:02:10,817 Speaker 1: he's suing Kia and HONDEI because he says that their 37 00:02:10,857 --> 00:02:13,457 Speaker 1: cars are too easy to steal. Just to give you 38 00:02:13,537 --> 00:02:16,217 Speaker 1: kind of a background here, in the first seven days 39 00:02:16,217 --> 00:02:19,577 Speaker 1: of May May first to May eighth, we've had one 40 00:02:19,657 --> 00:02:23,337 Speaker 1: hundred and seventy four cars stolen in Baltimore City, and 41 00:02:23,377 --> 00:02:27,137 Speaker 1: so we've got a problem with carjacking. There's apparently this 42 00:02:27,217 --> 00:02:29,897 Speaker 1: new trend on TikTok where all the kids are doing it. 43 00:02:30,457 --> 00:02:32,897 Speaker 1: But he believes instead of holding those kids accountable or 44 00:02:32,897 --> 00:02:36,297 Speaker 1: even their parents, he believes the manufacturers of these cars 45 00:02:36,577 --> 00:02:39,737 Speaker 1: they're the ones to blame because they're allowing these kids 46 00:02:39,777 --> 00:02:43,257 Speaker 1: to easily hot wire their mobiles and then steal them. 47 00:02:44,297 --> 00:02:49,297 Speaker 2: So this is amazing. It's too easy for the criminals. 48 00:02:49,777 --> 00:02:54,417 Speaker 2: So he's actively suing the car companies. I suppose he 49 00:02:54,497 --> 00:02:57,697 Speaker 2: wants them to do a recall. What redress is the 50 00:02:57,737 --> 00:03:00,777 Speaker 2: mayor seeking And it's not like these cars are only 51 00:03:00,817 --> 00:03:04,097 Speaker 2: sold in Baltimore. Apparently other cities, other places not having 52 00:03:04,097 --> 00:03:04,937 Speaker 2: so many problems. 53 00:03:06,377 --> 00:03:09,697 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, so he wants to recall. He wants them 54 00:03:09,697 --> 00:03:13,017 Speaker 1: to make the cars less easy to steal. I guess 55 00:03:13,017 --> 00:03:16,217 Speaker 1: it's the way that they're they're hooked up from their admission, 56 00:03:16,537 --> 00:03:18,217 Speaker 1: I guess it's easy to steal. Like I said, there's 57 00:03:18,257 --> 00:03:20,577 Speaker 1: a TikTok video showing kids how to do it. And 58 00:03:20,617 --> 00:03:24,017 Speaker 1: so right now carjacking is up so much. But if 59 00:03:24,057 --> 00:03:27,777 Speaker 1: you look at the numbers, Kia and Hondi, their cars 60 00:03:27,817 --> 00:03:30,777 Speaker 1: are being carjacked at forty one percent, right, the other 61 00:03:30,857 --> 00:03:33,617 Speaker 1: percentage are other cars. But they're saying it's forty one 62 00:03:33,657 --> 00:03:36,417 Speaker 1: percent for those too many factored cars because they're just 63 00:03:36,497 --> 00:03:39,217 Speaker 1: so easy to steal. And so even our police commissioner, 64 00:03:39,737 --> 00:03:43,457 Speaker 1: Police Commissioner Harrison, he believes what the mayor believes. They're saying, Look, 65 00:03:43,777 --> 00:03:46,257 Speaker 1: the cars are too easy to steal. Our cops were down, 66 00:03:46,297 --> 00:03:49,537 Speaker 1: police officers on patrol. The least they can do is 67 00:03:49,657 --> 00:03:53,657 Speaker 1: re manufacture the cars, recall them and then send them 68 00:03:53,697 --> 00:03:54,457 Speaker 1: to Baltimore. 69 00:03:55,697 --> 00:03:58,577 Speaker 2: It's it's crazy. Do you guys have a did you 70 00:03:58,617 --> 00:04:02,897 Speaker 2: have a do you have a Soros backed prosecutor in Baltimore? 71 00:04:03,017 --> 00:04:05,697 Speaker 2: Or what can you tell me about the law enforcement 72 00:04:05,817 --> 00:04:08,017 Speaker 2: apparatus in that Democrat en play. 73 00:04:09,417 --> 00:04:11,497 Speaker 1: Yeah, so we just got rid of our sorrows. Back 74 00:04:11,537 --> 00:04:14,417 Speaker 1: to prosecutor. Her name was Marilyn Moseby. She's the one 75 00:04:14,417 --> 00:04:19,297 Speaker 1: that indicted the police officers Freddie Gray riots back twenty fifteen. 76 00:04:19,817 --> 00:04:22,777 Speaker 1: In November twenty twenty two, luckily we got a little 77 00:04:22,777 --> 00:04:25,497 Speaker 1: bit more of a moderate Democrat. His name was Ivan Bates. 78 00:04:25,777 --> 00:04:31,217 Speaker 1: He recently just passed in the Annapolis the Annapolis House. 79 00:04:31,217 --> 00:04:33,897 Speaker 1: Basically in the Senate, he passed a law for five 80 00:04:33,937 --> 00:04:37,177 Speaker 1: year editory minimums on a legal possession of a firearm. 81 00:04:37,417 --> 00:04:40,657 Speaker 1: And he got that through the very last minute. The 82 00:04:40,737 --> 00:04:43,337 Speaker 1: unfortunate part is we now have a governor and governor 83 00:04:43,377 --> 00:04:46,897 Speaker 1: Wes Moore who is very progressive and he is tied 84 00:04:47,057 --> 00:04:50,457 Speaker 1: somewhat to Soros. So he just signed into law that 85 00:04:50,577 --> 00:04:54,377 Speaker 1: law abiding citizens cannot carry their guns anywhere. If you 86 00:04:54,417 --> 00:04:57,017 Speaker 1: have a carry permit, he wants you to at least 87 00:04:57,137 --> 00:05:00,457 Speaker 1: leave the guns at home. He believes law abiding citizens 88 00:05:00,497 --> 00:05:03,657 Speaker 1: are the problem. The issue there, Buck is when you're 89 00:05:03,697 --> 00:05:06,497 Speaker 1: looking at the offenders in Baltimore City at a three 90 00:05:06,577 --> 00:05:10,057 Speaker 1: hundred of people that have been arrested and offended with guns, 91 00:05:10,257 --> 00:05:12,857 Speaker 1: only two of them were law abiding citizens at a 92 00:05:12,897 --> 00:05:15,497 Speaker 1: three hundred. So it's not the law abiding citizens that 93 00:05:15,537 --> 00:05:19,057 Speaker 1: are the problem. But of course these are progressive mayors 94 00:05:19,097 --> 00:05:21,617 Speaker 1: and governors, and of course they believe law abiding citizens 95 00:05:21,657 --> 00:05:22,337 Speaker 1: are the problem. 96 00:05:22,457 --> 00:05:24,457 Speaker 2: Wait, I'm to tell me again that that stat that 97 00:05:24,537 --> 00:05:28,817 Speaker 2: was stunning of the arrest. Just tell me that one again, gut. 98 00:05:28,777 --> 00:05:32,737 Speaker 1: Arrest the offenders three hundred. We have three hundred gun offenders. 99 00:05:33,257 --> 00:05:36,137 Speaker 1: This was between twenty twenty and twenty twenty two, and 100 00:05:36,257 --> 00:05:39,217 Speaker 1: only two of them actually legally own their weapon. 101 00:05:39,337 --> 00:05:42,057 Speaker 2: That's amazing. I mean, it's not surprising, but to put 102 00:05:42,057 --> 00:05:46,897 Speaker 2: it in that kind of just stark reality for people 103 00:05:47,377 --> 00:05:49,457 Speaker 2: that you're just it's not like it's hard for bad 104 00:05:49,497 --> 00:05:51,617 Speaker 2: people who are committing crimes and we're shooting people and 105 00:05:51,617 --> 00:05:53,697 Speaker 2: who are you know, running fence and on all this stuff. 106 00:05:53,897 --> 00:05:56,257 Speaker 2: It's not hard for them to get guns. So now 107 00:05:57,137 --> 00:05:59,697 Speaker 2: there's there is, or is not a mandatory five year 108 00:05:59,777 --> 00:06:03,057 Speaker 2: minimum for people that are illegally you know, because let 109 00:06:03,057 --> 00:06:07,217 Speaker 2: me ask you this, what's happened in for example, in Philadelphia. 110 00:06:07,777 --> 00:06:10,697 Speaker 2: And I brought this, you know, I talked to this 111 00:06:10,737 --> 00:06:12,817 Speaker 2: on radio. I went on Tucker Show. I remember I 112 00:06:12,857 --> 00:06:14,537 Speaker 2: texted Tucker about it. I was like, you got to 113 00:06:14,577 --> 00:06:18,057 Speaker 2: you got to see these numbers where half of felon 114 00:06:18,217 --> 00:06:21,977 Speaker 2: in possession cases, this is a Krasner, who's a Soros 115 00:06:21,977 --> 00:06:26,537 Speaker 2: back DA there, right, half of felon possession cases were dismissed. 116 00:06:26,857 --> 00:06:29,457 Speaker 2: Kim not not like oh, we're going to give somebody 117 00:06:29,457 --> 00:06:32,457 Speaker 2: a low sentence or you know, put that dismissed. Nothing. 118 00:06:32,777 --> 00:06:35,017 Speaker 2: So these are people who had a legal gun and 119 00:06:35,657 --> 00:06:38,537 Speaker 2: we're violating the statute, the federal statute against being a 120 00:06:38,537 --> 00:06:40,897 Speaker 2: felon in possession. But the local DA just said he's 121 00:06:40,937 --> 00:06:43,577 Speaker 2: not going to do anything about it. What you know 122 00:06:43,777 --> 00:06:47,177 Speaker 2: is that happening in Maryland as well, because on the 123 00:06:47,177 --> 00:06:49,457 Speaker 2: one hand, they'll talk about assault rifles and making the 124 00:06:49,497 --> 00:06:54,017 Speaker 2: penalties really stiff for having a pistol brace or you know, 125 00:06:54,097 --> 00:06:57,057 Speaker 2: bumstock or whatever, but they've all these gang bangers who 126 00:06:57,057 --> 00:06:59,977 Speaker 2: are running around with pistols illegally and they don't really 127 00:07:00,017 --> 00:07:02,337 Speaker 2: get prosecuted. Like, how is it working in Baltimore. 128 00:07:03,737 --> 00:07:06,377 Speaker 1: Yeah, so, like I said, luckily we got rid of 129 00:07:05,817 --> 00:07:09,897 Speaker 1: our Soros back DA in November twenty twenty two. But 130 00:07:10,097 --> 00:07:12,097 Speaker 1: at the same time, you have a mayor that is 131 00:07:12,177 --> 00:07:14,657 Speaker 1: very focused on ghost guns. And but I don't know 132 00:07:14,657 --> 00:07:16,457 Speaker 1: if you know, but these are the guns I guess 133 00:07:16,497 --> 00:07:20,897 Speaker 1: they're making. Yeah, they're making at home. And so there's 134 00:07:20,937 --> 00:07:23,497 Speaker 1: a lot of laws now in place for the ghost guns. 135 00:07:24,457 --> 00:07:26,137 Speaker 1: But of course, you know, when you're looking at the 136 00:07:26,137 --> 00:07:28,817 Speaker 1: guns used on the streets of Baltimore, they are regular 137 00:07:28,937 --> 00:07:32,577 Speaker 1: handguns that have been stolen from either law abiding citizens 138 00:07:32,777 --> 00:07:35,217 Speaker 1: or they're coming in from out of state. They don't 139 00:07:35,257 --> 00:07:37,817 Speaker 1: know exactly where they're coming from, and so you've got 140 00:07:37,817 --> 00:07:40,337 Speaker 1: a lot of like I said, juveniles using these guns. 141 00:07:40,417 --> 00:07:43,977 Speaker 1: Using these weapons. They're not assault rifles as they call them. 142 00:07:44,137 --> 00:07:47,457 Speaker 1: They are just regular handguns and they're the lesson we 143 00:07:47,497 --> 00:07:47,937 Speaker 1: can have it. 144 00:07:48,497 --> 00:07:51,817 Speaker 2: Do we have any ideas to has anyone been killed 145 00:07:51,857 --> 00:07:56,017 Speaker 2: in the last twelve months in Baltimore with a ghost gun? 146 00:07:56,177 --> 00:07:58,017 Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, and by that, I don't mean 147 00:07:58,097 --> 00:08:00,257 Speaker 2: guns with a serial number filed off, because that's illegal 148 00:08:00,297 --> 00:08:02,177 Speaker 2: in itself. That's a whole people like to play games 149 00:08:02,177 --> 00:08:05,937 Speaker 2: of the definitions one that's built at home. Do we 150 00:08:05,977 --> 00:08:07,657 Speaker 2: know of anyone who's been killed with a ghost gun 151 00:08:07,697 --> 00:08:09,657 Speaker 2: in Baltimore? I mean, I ask, honestly, I don't know. 152 00:08:10,857 --> 00:08:13,617 Speaker 1: Yeah. So in twenty twenty one, according to our police commissioner, 153 00:08:14,137 --> 00:08:18,457 Speaker 1: they obtained thirty six ghost guns from who they believe 154 00:08:18,697 --> 00:08:21,977 Speaker 1: allegedly used them, whether they were in the shooting perhaps 155 00:08:21,977 --> 00:08:24,777 Speaker 1: they didn't hit somebody, but also a murder. So thirty 156 00:08:24,817 --> 00:08:26,777 Speaker 1: six ghost guns. But you have to remember, Buck, we 157 00:08:26,897 --> 00:08:30,177 Speaker 1: have over one thousand shootings per year. So if you're 158 00:08:30,177 --> 00:08:33,457 Speaker 1: looking at thirty six compared to a thousand, and this 159 00:08:33,617 --> 00:08:36,377 Speaker 1: is one thousand plus sometimes twelve hundred, thirteen hundred shootings 160 00:08:36,377 --> 00:08:39,097 Speaker 1: per year. I mean that thirty six means absolutely nothing. 161 00:08:39,457 --> 00:08:43,537 Speaker 2: It's it's remarkable. I watched this and I just wonder, 162 00:08:44,017 --> 00:08:46,497 Speaker 2: actually I want to ask you about this. You know, 163 00:08:46,577 --> 00:08:49,177 Speaker 2: when you are out and talking to the residents of Baltimore, 164 00:08:49,577 --> 00:08:50,977 Speaker 2: what did they say? You know, a lot of them 165 00:08:51,017 --> 00:08:53,417 Speaker 2: are Democrats a Democrat city, right, I want to know 166 00:08:53,457 --> 00:08:57,737 Speaker 2: what they say at this point, and I'm talking about 167 00:08:57,897 --> 00:09:00,097 Speaker 2: Democrat voters, right. Put aside the I'm sure you are 168 00:09:00,097 --> 00:09:02,017 Speaker 2: friends who are Republicans, lots of them, you know, in 169 00:09:02,057 --> 00:09:05,297 Speaker 2: and around Baltimore.

I don't even know what the real number 202 00:10:31,657 --> 00:10:35,737 Speaker 2: would be when you speak to residents there, and I'm 203 00:10:35,777 --> 00:10:37,577 Speaker 2: sure it comes up. You know, it came up when 204 00:10:37,577 --> 00:10:39,217 Speaker 2: you're running for Congress. It comes up now as you're 205 00:10:39,217 --> 00:10:41,177 Speaker 2: a host of a radio show there and you're taking 206 00:10:41,217 --> 00:10:43,657 Speaker 2: call ins. What do they say, do they think it's 207 00:10:43,657 --> 00:10:46,137 Speaker 2: really going to get better supporting the same party? I mean, 208 00:10:46,137 --> 00:10:48,697 Speaker 2: this is a this is something that we find fascinating 209 00:10:48,697 --> 00:10:49,897 Speaker 2: on the right. I'm wonder if you could shed some 210 00:10:49,977 --> 00:10:50,417 Speaker 2: light on it. 211 00:10:52,017 --> 00:10:55,377 Speaker 1: Yeah, So there's a lot of moderate Democrats, right. They're 212 00:10:55,537 --> 00:10:58,137 Speaker 1: usually the older I would say, you know, maybe sixty 213 00:10:58,217 --> 00:11:01,137 Speaker 1: years older enough, and so they're not excited about what's 214 00:11:01,177 --> 00:11:03,337 Speaker 1: going on. They're not excited about the crime, they're not 215 00:11:03,377 --> 00:11:05,937 Speaker 1: excited about the violence, and believe or not, they're not 216 00:11:06,017 --> 00:11:09,457 Speaker 1: excited about the LGBTQ community. That's a whole other topic, 217 00:11:09,457 --> 00:11:12,857 Speaker 1: but they're about it. And so most of those voters 218 00:11:12,857 --> 00:11:15,777 Speaker 1: they are thinking differently. When I ran in twenty twenty, 219 00:11:15,817 --> 00:11:20,097 Speaker 1: we actually flip fourteen thousand Democrats to vote Republican, which 220 00:11:20,137 --> 00:11:23,537 Speaker 1: was great ride. But I think people have to remember 221 00:11:23,857 --> 00:11:26,217 Speaker 1: when it comes to Baltimore City and so many of 222 00:11:26,257 --> 00:11:29,097 Speaker 1: these cities, they're very small cities. You know, when it 223 00:11:29,097 --> 00:11:32,617 Speaker 1: comes to population size. And then also, like our mayor, 224 00:11:32,777 --> 00:11:35,457 Speaker 1: he got the American Rescue Plan Fund and you probably 225 00:11:35,497 --> 00:11:39,777 Speaker 1: remember Buck, this is a handout from the federal government. Well, anyways, 226 00:11:39,817 --> 00:11:42,337 Speaker 1: we got six hundred and forty one million dollars, and 227 00:11:42,377 --> 00:11:44,377 Speaker 1: that six hundred and forty one million dollars will go 228 00:11:44,457 --> 00:11:46,697 Speaker 1: to nonprofits. And this is what they do. They get 229 00:11:46,737 --> 00:11:49,537 Speaker 1: money from the federal level, they fund the nonprofits, and 230 00:11:49,577 --> 00:11:52,457 Speaker 1: then those that work for the nonprofits they usually vote 231 00:11:52,497 --> 00:11:57,017 Speaker 1: for them. Again because their paychecks depends on who's an office, 232 00:11:57,137 --> 00:11:59,377 Speaker 1: and so that's how they get many of these votes. 233 00:11:59,377 --> 00:12:02,977 Speaker 1: It's people that are working in these nonprofits or government positions, 234 00:12:03,177 --> 00:12:06,017 Speaker 1: and so they want to continue to fund let's say 235 00:12:06,017 --> 00:12:08,417 Speaker 1: a progressive mayor or so because they know that they're 236 00:12:08,417 --> 00:12:10,897 Speaker 1: going to continue to fund their non of profits. So 237 00:12:11,377 --> 00:12:15,977 Speaker 1: literally it is the minority that's voting based on not 238 00:12:16,097 --> 00:12:18,497 Speaker 1: being a part of the government. And so if they 239 00:12:18,617 --> 00:12:22,497 Speaker 1: vote for something different, say a Republican, unfortunately in that situation, 240 00:12:22,577 --> 00:12:23,777 Speaker 1: their vote doesn't really matter. 241 00:12:25,377 --> 00:12:28,537 Speaker 2: Interesting, so there's a patronage network that plays a big 242 00:12:28,577 --> 00:12:30,457 Speaker 2: role in this. I mean, we see this, right, We 243 00:12:30,497 --> 00:12:32,417 Speaker 2: see this with the teachers unions for example, a lot 244 00:12:32,417 --> 00:12:35,417 Speaker 2: of teachers unions vote Democrat because they know the Democrats 245 00:12:35,417 --> 00:12:37,737 Speaker 2: are going to do anything the teachers' union wants when 246 00:12:37,737 --> 00:12:39,897 Speaker 2: they're in power, and so it's just one hand washes 247 00:12:39,937 --> 00:12:42,777 Speaker 2: the other. Right, But when you see, as I think 248 00:12:42,817 --> 00:12:45,297 Speaker 2: it's so much the case right now, Kim. You see 249 00:12:45,497 --> 00:12:48,057 Speaker 2: and a lot of cities that I think should be 250 00:12:48,097 --> 00:12:51,777 Speaker 2: great American cities that are blessed by you know, history 251 00:12:51,817 --> 00:12:55,337 Speaker 2: and geography, and you know a lot of things going 252 00:12:55,337 --> 00:12:58,137 Speaker 2: in architecture, et cetera, a lot of things going for them. 253 00:12:58,217 --> 00:13:00,617 Speaker 2: I mean, San Francisco is in the process of being 254 00:13:00,697 --> 00:13:03,577 Speaker 2: ruined as a city. Right. Portland, which I think is 255 00:13:03,617 --> 00:13:07,137 Speaker 2: a great little town city, also in the process of 256 00:13:07,177 --> 00:13:10,537 Speaker 2: being ruined. It's on the west coast, by on the 257 00:13:10,577 --> 00:13:12,697 Speaker 2: East coast. If there is a city that I think 258 00:13:12,737 --> 00:13:16,577 Speaker 2: is underperforming what it should be as a place to 259 00:13:16,657 --> 00:13:19,937 Speaker 2: live and to work and to raise a family, Baltimore 260 00:13:20,017 --> 00:13:22,897 Speaker 2: is high on that list, right. It should be a 261 00:13:22,937 --> 00:13:27,137 Speaker 2: place that people are flocking to, and instead it's got 262 00:13:27,177 --> 00:13:31,537 Speaker 2: the reputation being very high crime, incredibly corrupt. How do 263 00:13:31,577 --> 00:13:34,297 Speaker 2: you fix it? Like what would have to happen? Like 264 00:13:34,497 --> 00:13:36,457 Speaker 2: I feel like, would I know how to fix New 265 00:13:36,537 --> 00:13:38,257 Speaker 2: York City because I grew up in New York City, 266 00:13:38,257 --> 00:13:40,857 Speaker 2: I'm assuming there's some similarities to Baltimore. But how do 267 00:13:40,897 --> 00:13:44,217 Speaker 2: you fix the crime, the corruption, the decay in your 268 00:13:44,257 --> 00:13:44,817 Speaker 2: home city. 269 00:13:46,417 --> 00:13:49,697 Speaker 1: Yeah, so you would definitely have to really enforce the law, 270 00:13:50,017 --> 00:13:52,417 Speaker 1: right and so right now we have people that are 271 00:13:52,497 --> 00:13:55,137 Speaker 1: very soft in crime. They're soft on juveniles that are 272 00:13:56,577 --> 00:13:59,097 Speaker 1: taking part in crime, and so you would have to 273 00:13:59,177 --> 00:14:02,937 Speaker 1: have I would think somebody that wants the police to 274 00:14:02,937 --> 00:14:05,177 Speaker 1: do their job. Don't forget buff we're still under the 275 00:14:05,217 --> 00:14:07,617 Speaker 1: Consent Decree because of the rights that we had in 276 00:14:07,617 --> 00:14:11,017 Speaker 1: twenty fifteen. So some police officers feel that they can't 277 00:14:11,057 --> 00:14:14,097 Speaker 1: really do their job. They're under a microscope. They could 278 00:14:14,097 --> 00:14:16,297 Speaker 1: be blamed for something that they didn't really do wrong. 279 00:14:16,657 --> 00:14:19,217 Speaker 1: And so we are down five hundred officers on patrol. 280 00:14:19,297 --> 00:14:21,937 Speaker 1: So we need somebody that will not vilify the police, 281 00:14:21,977 --> 00:14:24,377 Speaker 1: make sure that we recruit and retain our police. But 282 00:14:24,417 --> 00:14:26,857 Speaker 1: at the same time, I hate to say it, but 283 00:14:26,897 --> 00:14:28,977 Speaker 1: we got to go back to the days of stopping frisk. 284 00:14:29,337 --> 00:14:31,177 Speaker 1: We got to go back to the days. Remember Rudy 285 00:14:31,217 --> 00:14:34,297 Speaker 1: Giuliani in New York. He changed the game, and that 286 00:14:34,377 --> 00:14:37,057 Speaker 1: is because he targeted those that were breaking the law. 287 00:14:37,257 --> 00:14:38,977 Speaker 1: And so we have to go back to those times. 288 00:14:39,137 --> 00:14:40,657 Speaker 1: I know a lot of people don't want to hear that, 289 00:14:40,977 --> 00:14:43,297 Speaker 1: but that's where we are at this point, and if 290 00:14:43,457 --> 00:14:45,897 Speaker 1: need be, let's bring in the National Guard. 291 00:14:46,217 --> 00:14:51,817 Speaker 2: Was twenty fifteen was that Freddy Gray riots or BLM 292 00:14:52,097 --> 00:14:54,537 Speaker 2: riots or I'm just trying to remember what happened. 293 00:14:56,217 --> 00:14:59,697 Speaker 1: Yeah, So in twenty fifteen, Freddy Gray, a known drug dealer. 294 00:15:00,017 --> 00:15:01,897 Speaker 1: He was put in the back of a patty wagon, 295 00:15:01,937 --> 00:15:05,417 Speaker 1: of a police paddy wagon, and they gave him a 296 00:15:05,657 --> 00:15:07,977 Speaker 1: I guess you can call it a rough ride. As 297 00:15:08,017 --> 00:15:10,817 Speaker 1: they got to the station Central Booking, they opened the 298 00:15:10,857 --> 00:15:13,777 Speaker 1: doors and unfortunately he was a limp right, and so 299 00:15:13,817 --> 00:15:17,097 Speaker 1: they believe that because of the rough ride, he ended 300 00:15:17,177 --> 00:15:19,417 Speaker 1: up breaking his neck. They didn't have him strapped down, 301 00:15:19,857 --> 00:15:21,697 Speaker 1: and so there were a lot of people very upset. 302 00:15:22,097 --> 00:15:25,417 Speaker 1: Six officers were charged, but they were also then acquitted. 303 00:15:26,017 --> 00:15:29,497 Speaker 1: And so because of that Black Lives Matter many people 304 00:15:29,537 --> 00:15:32,737 Speaker 1: took to the streets. They burned down a large portion 305 00:15:32,817 --> 00:15:35,857 Speaker 1: of West Baltimore and things have not been the same since. 306 00:15:35,897 --> 00:15:37,897 Speaker 1: And that's when the Consent Decree went into place. 307 00:15:39,097 --> 00:15:42,777 Speaker 2: The consent degree, so that means federal government right doj 308 00:15:43,097 --> 00:15:46,857 Speaker 2: effectively keeping a watchful eye on law enforcement in the 309 00:15:46,857 --> 00:15:50,217 Speaker 2: city of Baltimore, which I mean the exact not to 310 00:15:50,297 --> 00:15:53,697 Speaker 2: help them right, to be watching them for the smallest 311 00:15:53,697 --> 00:15:56,617 Speaker 2: slip upper transgressions. They can come down like an anvil 312 00:15:57,057 --> 00:16:00,297 Speaker 2: falling out of the sky on the people that are 313 00:16:00,297 --> 00:16:03,977 Speaker 2: trying to keep Baltimore somewhat safe to live and be. 314 00:16:04,017 --> 00:16:06,657 Speaker 2: And I will come back into more on this in 315 00:16:06,697 --> 00:16:08,177 Speaker 2: a second.

But first, it 319 00:16:14,857 --> 00:16:17,017 Speaker 2: makes all kinds of sense to have life insurance, particularly 320 00:16:17,057 --> 00:16:19,257 Speaker 2: there are people relying on you to be there for them. 321 00:16:19,777 --> 00:16:21,937 Speaker 2: You got to have life insurance just in case. I mean, 322 00:16:21,937 --> 00:16:23,737 Speaker 2: I got married earlier this year and I've had to 323 00:16:23,777 --> 00:16:25,937 Speaker 2: go through this too.

Kim, 342 00:17:19,417 --> 00:17:22,297 Speaker 2: tell me about the school system. That's another place where 343 00:17:22,457 --> 00:17:24,497 Speaker 2: I think that we find in a lot of cities 344 00:17:24,497 --> 00:17:29,057 Speaker 2: Baltimore included, the corruption of politics, even at the expense 345 00:17:29,097 --> 00:17:32,257 Speaker 2: of our children, is jaw dropping. I mean, it's so 346 00:17:32,337 --> 00:17:35,217 Speaker 2: apparent what's going on there? Do you have a lot 347 00:17:35,217 --> 00:17:37,817 Speaker 2: of failing schools, the teachers' unions calling all the shots. 348 00:17:37,857 --> 00:17:38,417 Speaker 2: What's going on? 349 00:17:39,777 --> 00:17:43,177 Speaker 1: We absolutely do so. A local journalist did uncover that 350 00:17:43,217 --> 00:17:46,817 Speaker 1: we have twenty three schools in Baltimore City where kids 351 00:17:47,257 --> 00:17:51,577 Speaker 1: zero children are proficient in math, reading, and writing as well, 352 00:17:51,657 --> 00:17:59,137 Speaker 1: and so zero zero percent twenty three schools. It's crazy 353 00:17:59,137 --> 00:18:02,137 Speaker 1: to think about that number. Meanwhile, Buck, we have the 354 00:18:02,177 --> 00:18:05,297 Speaker 1: third highest per pupil spending in the country, so each 355 00:18:05,337 --> 00:18:08,697 Speaker 1: student receives twenty one thousand dollars annually. That's more than 356 00:18:08,777 --> 00:18:12,297 Speaker 1: many private schools, yet we have the worst results. Could 357 00:18:12,417 --> 00:18:15,777 Speaker 1: you can imagine? So we have a superintendent that makes 358 00:18:15,817 --> 00:18:17,897 Speaker 1: three hundred and fifty thousand dollars a year, and I 359 00:18:17,977 --> 00:18:18,977 Speaker 1: still don't know why. 360 00:18:20,537 --> 00:18:22,697 Speaker 2: That's that's remarkable. I guess it's a good job if 361 00:18:22,697 --> 00:18:24,737 Speaker 2: you can get it. I mean, you know, it's a 362 00:18:24,777 --> 00:18:26,737 Speaker 2: shame for all the kids who don't get a good 363 00:18:26,857 --> 00:18:30,217 Speaker 2: education and who the Democrat Party promises if only the 364 00:18:30,297 --> 00:18:33,697 Speaker 2: ricks rich were were taxed more, you know, everything would 365 00:18:33,697 --> 00:18:38,377 Speaker 2: be would be better, but it's clearly not actually the case. Well, look, 366 00:18:38,657 --> 00:18:41,377 Speaker 2: I'm always hopeful. You know, I've spent a fair amount 367 00:18:41,377 --> 00:18:43,857 Speaker 2: of time in Baltimore. I've got some friends who what 368 00:18:43,977 --> 00:18:46,017 Speaker 2: is it on Charles Street. They've got their offices there, 369 00:18:46,057 --> 00:18:49,097 Speaker 2: and so I've been there, and it's it's the Harbor. 370 00:18:49,137 --> 00:18:51,017 Speaker 2: I mean, it's a beautiful city like it should be 371 00:18:51,057 --> 00:18:54,217 Speaker 2: a great place. I have a fondness for it because 372 00:18:54,217 --> 00:18:57,417 Speaker 2: I've been to the nice areas of it, and I 373 00:18:57,457 --> 00:18:58,937 Speaker 2: mean I've been all over and I've seen the rough 374 00:18:58,977 --> 00:19:01,857 Speaker 2: areas too, But it should be it should be a 375 00:19:01,937 --> 00:19:04,697 Speaker 2: place that's you know, looking at DC saying if only 376 00:19:04,737 --> 00:19:08,457 Speaker 2: you did things our way, but instead it's got a lot, 377 00:19:08,497 --> 00:19:10,337 Speaker 2: a lot of work to do. Let's talk about twenty 378 00:19:10,337 --> 00:19:13,177 Speaker 2: twenty four. How do you see things shaking out right now? 379 00:19:13,217 --> 00:19:15,657 Speaker 2: First off, do you think that Joe Biden is one 380 00:19:15,697 --> 00:19:20,377 Speaker 2: hundred going to be the Democrat nominee barring a health issue, 381 00:19:20,417 --> 00:19:22,177 Speaker 2: or do you think there's some plan behind the scenes 382 00:19:22,217 --> 00:19:24,097 Speaker 2: that could still be unearthed. 383 00:19:26,017 --> 00:19:28,337 Speaker 1: Well, I think the DNC probably are going to put 384 00:19:28,817 --> 00:19:32,177 Speaker 1: you know, all their eggs in Joe Biden's basket. I 385 00:19:32,257 --> 00:19:35,377 Speaker 1: don't know why, considering his health issues, but considering that 386 00:19:35,537 --> 00:19:37,897 Speaker 1: he has such a low approval rating. But I think, 387 00:19:37,937 --> 00:19:39,577 Speaker 1: you know, the DNC, this is how they are, right. 388 00:19:39,577 --> 00:19:42,137 Speaker 1: Everybody has to wait their turn. I think they still 389 00:19:42,177 --> 00:19:45,577 Speaker 1: believe that Biden should have a second term. I don't 390 00:19:45,617 --> 00:19:47,617 Speaker 1: know who else they would put up there, right, Who 391 00:19:47,697 --> 00:19:49,937 Speaker 1: else do they have on the bench. I'm not really sure. 392 00:19:50,537 --> 00:19:53,697 Speaker 1: Pete Buddhajete, I thought, you know, way back when could 393 00:19:53,737 --> 00:19:56,337 Speaker 1: have been a contender, but he has done a horrible 394 00:19:56,417 --> 00:19:59,977 Speaker 1: job at the Department of Transportation. So all I can 395 00:20:00,017 --> 00:20:02,977 Speaker 1: see right now is, yes, you've got I guess JFK 396 00:20:03,217 --> 00:20:06,657 Speaker 1: that wants to run or RFK. I'm sorry this was a. 397 00:20:06,657 --> 00:20:09,577 Speaker 2: Case RFK Junior, RFK Jorky Junior. 398 00:20:10,097 --> 00:20:13,497 Speaker 1: Yes, I know he wants to run. But other than that, 399 00:20:13,537 --> 00:20:15,297 Speaker 1: I don't see who they would have because it's definitely 400 00:20:15,297 --> 00:20:18,617 Speaker 1: not going to be VP Harris. She's done a terrible job, 401 00:20:19,017 --> 00:20:21,417 Speaker 1: and so you know, right now, I think it is 402 00:20:21,457 --> 00:20:23,257 Speaker 1: going to be Biden. I know a lot of people 403 00:20:23,297 --> 00:20:26,377 Speaker 1: are talking about Gavin Newsom, but he's so far left 404 00:20:26,417 --> 00:20:29,337 Speaker 1: I couldn't imagine him winning any kind of nomination. 405 00:20:30,457 --> 00:20:32,817 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I always say about Gavin Newsom is 406 00:20:32,857 --> 00:20:35,297 Speaker 2: that I think on the right, it's a little bit like, 407 00:20:35,337 --> 00:20:39,457 Speaker 2: you know, is AOC going to be a great presidential candidate? No, 408 00:20:39,697 --> 00:20:43,737 Speaker 2: because because AOC can't win in my in my opinion, 409 00:20:43,737 --> 00:20:46,777 Speaker 2: at least can't win. You know, Michigan, Ohio, Well, Ohio 410 00:20:46,897 --> 00:20:50,377 Speaker 2: is kind of red now, but Arizona, Pennsylvania, Georgia. I 411 00:20:50,657 --> 00:20:52,937 Speaker 2: just don't see that. I think that independent voters would 412 00:20:52,977 --> 00:20:56,017 Speaker 2: recognize that she's far left on a lot of issues. 413 00:20:56,057 --> 00:20:59,377 Speaker 2: And Gavin Newsom, as slick as he may be, and 414 00:20:59,417 --> 00:21:04,297 Speaker 2: he is a he is an unctious individual. He there's 415 00:21:04,337 --> 00:21:06,377 Speaker 2: I just don't see that. So I think it's going 416 00:21:06,417 --> 00:21:10,337 Speaker 2: to be Biden, and their worst case scenario is Biden. 417 00:21:10,417 --> 00:21:12,697 Speaker 2: Let's say, how a stroke or something happened he couldn't run. 418 00:21:13,137 --> 00:21:15,257 Speaker 2: Uh that the VP? I mean, this is why we 419 00:21:15,297 --> 00:21:17,657 Speaker 2: have a VP. I keep reminding everybody like that's really 420 00:21:17,737 --> 00:21:19,937 Speaker 2: the job, right. Everyone talks about the VP as though 421 00:21:19,977 --> 00:21:23,297 Speaker 2: it's a celebrity role, like, oh, what what optics will 422 00:21:23,337 --> 00:21:25,897 Speaker 2: the VP bring? No, it's in case we have a 423 00:21:25,897 --> 00:21:28,497 Speaker 2: president who can't do the job anymore, that you have 424 00:21:28,537 --> 00:21:31,137 Speaker 2: a VP there and and then I don't know. I 425 00:21:31,177 --> 00:21:32,337 Speaker 2: don't want to. I don't want to get you in 426 00:21:32,337 --> 00:21:34,257 Speaker 2: trouble with your with your audience. Can well maybe I 427 00:21:34,297 --> 00:21:37,377 Speaker 2: kind of do. That's why I'm asking you the question, Uh, Trump, 428 00:21:37,577 --> 00:21:41,217 Speaker 2: DeSantis or any of the other candidates, do you endorse? 429 00:21:41,417 --> 00:21:44,297 Speaker 2: Do you wait to see or do you never endorse? 430 00:21:44,697 --> 00:21:47,097 Speaker 2: In a Republican primary? What's your what's your position on 431 00:21:47,137 --> 00:21:47,457 Speaker 2: all that? 432 00:21:48,457 --> 00:21:50,617 Speaker 1: Oh? Well, I will say Buck, I you know, look, 433 00:21:50,657 --> 00:21:53,177 Speaker 1: I think Governor Ron desandas doays a great job in Florida. 434 00:21:53,297 --> 00:21:55,657 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, President Trump is 435 00:21:55,657 --> 00:21:57,737 Speaker 1: my man, and I think he proved that with the 436 00:21:57,777 --> 00:22:00,297 Speaker 1: CNN town hall, right, I mean, think about it, everybody 437 00:22:00,337 --> 00:22:03,657 Speaker 1: tuned in to watch. I honestly think that there's really 438 00:22:03,697 --> 00:22:07,497 Speaker 1: no primary at this point with the GOP because there's 439 00:22:07,497 --> 00:22:10,297 Speaker 1: so much fanfare around President Trump just to are to 440 00:22:10,337 --> 00:22:13,217 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, and so I think a lot of people 441 00:22:13,217 --> 00:22:15,297 Speaker 1: feel that he deserves a second shot. I think when 442 00:22:15,297 --> 00:22:17,817 Speaker 1: you're looking at foreign policy, a lot of people know 443 00:22:17,857 --> 00:22:20,697 Speaker 1: exactly where Trump stands, and a lot of people respect 444 00:22:20,737 --> 00:22:23,297 Speaker 1: him across the world, and we need that right now. 445 00:22:23,337 --> 00:22:26,497 Speaker 1: So I look, I will endorse today President Trump. 446 00:22:27,777 --> 00:22:32,537 Speaker 2: Now talk me through if you would. I like, you're 447 00:22:32,577 --> 00:22:34,897 Speaker 2: thrown down because so many people. I mean, we so 448 00:22:34,977 --> 00:22:38,897 Speaker 2: on on my radio show with Clay we have the 449 00:22:38,977 --> 00:22:41,377 Speaker 2: Rush rule. Rush never endorsed for thirty years, so we 450 00:22:42,217 --> 00:22:44,057 Speaker 2: honor that, and so we will not not just in 451 00:22:44,257 --> 00:22:46,577 Speaker 2: the presidential we don't endorse in any Republican primary. We 452 00:22:46,577 --> 00:22:48,897 Speaker 2: don't get involved when our team is fighting it out. 453 00:22:48,937 --> 00:22:51,777 Speaker 2: We just talk about it and let the people decide. Obviously, 454 00:22:51,857 --> 00:22:53,977 Speaker 2: you know, we're trying to help defeat the communist Democrats. 455 00:22:54,057 --> 00:22:56,217 Speaker 2: Will do anything we can when it comes to a 456 00:22:56,497 --> 00:23:01,057 Speaker 2: general talk me through your thinking on why Trump is 457 00:23:01,097 --> 00:23:05,537 Speaker 2: in a better position now than in twenty twenty to 458 00:23:05,657 --> 00:23:07,697 Speaker 2: win the States to be president again. 459 00:23:09,337 --> 00:23:12,137 Speaker 1: I think right now, if you're looking at illegal immigration, 460 00:23:12,497 --> 00:23:16,337 Speaker 1: it is twenty sixteen, but you know on fire, right, 461 00:23:16,417 --> 00:23:18,977 Speaker 1: I think if he really sticks to the border in 462 00:23:19,017 --> 00:23:21,777 Speaker 1: the southern border situation, I think a lot of people 463 00:23:21,777 --> 00:23:24,137 Speaker 1: would agree with him. We need a border wall, we 464 00:23:24,177 --> 00:23:26,457 Speaker 1: need a strong border, we need strong policies at the 465 00:23:26,457 --> 00:23:29,057 Speaker 1: border right now. I have a lot of friends in 466 00:23:29,057 --> 00:23:31,577 Speaker 1: New York, of course here in Baltimore, in many sanctuary 467 00:23:31,617 --> 00:23:33,977 Speaker 1: cities where they're seeing what's going on. I mean, you 468 00:23:33,977 --> 00:23:36,657 Speaker 1: saw in Chicago you've got people that were knocked off 469 00:23:36,657 --> 00:23:39,497 Speaker 1: of the housing list because of illegal immigrants coming in. 470 00:23:40,097 --> 00:23:43,057 Speaker 1: So if they really want to keep the black vote, 471 00:23:43,057 --> 00:23:44,857 Speaker 1: which I think they're not going to really do with 472 00:23:44,897 --> 00:23:49,017 Speaker 1: this immigration situation, I think that President Trump is the man, 473 00:23:49,057 --> 00:23:50,777 Speaker 1: and I think if he really harps on what he 474 00:23:50,857 --> 00:23:53,297 Speaker 1: harped on in twenty sixteen, if he does that here 475 00:23:53,697 --> 00:23:55,417 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four, I think he could win it. 476 00:23:56,497 --> 00:24:00,617 Speaker 2: You know, I want to ask you about the did 477 00:24:00,617 --> 00:24:05,177 Speaker 2: you see Bonny Chance, the Cleopatra movie where Cleopatra is 478 00:24:05,217 --> 00:24:06,537 Speaker 2: black that was released on Netflix? 479 00:24:08,257 --> 00:24:09,977 Speaker 1: So I have to be honest, I don't have the. 480 00:24:10,977 --> 00:24:13,697 Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, well let's let's come back here, though I 481 00:24:13,697 --> 00:24:15,337 Speaker 2: want to. I want to ask you just about the 482 00:24:15,417 --> 00:24:21,377 Speaker 2: general the general trend now toward having historical figures represented 483 00:24:21,537 --> 00:24:27,177 Speaker 2: as minorities, particularly black men or black women, because the Left, 484 00:24:27,257 --> 00:24:32,937 Speaker 2: because wokeness demands it. So we'll we'll get to this, 485 00:24:33,097 --> 00:24:34,697 Speaker 2: or you know, wokeness is pushing for this. We'll get 486 00:24:34,697 --> 00:24:36,697 Speaker 2: to that in just a second. Look, if the people 487 00:24:36,737 --> 00:24:38,937 Speaker 2: run on the Biden campaign had any smarts, they'd be 488 00:24:38,977 --> 00:24:42,377 Speaker 2: quick to subscribe to Chalk's Male Vitality Stack. Would that 489 00:24:42,417 --> 00:24:45,577 Speaker 2: campaign benefit from the TESSAs and replenishment certainly? Would they 490 00:24:45,577 --> 00:24:47,297 Speaker 2: have the energy to get through a day and maybe 491 00:24:47,297 --> 00:24:51,577 Speaker 2: actually get some votes the old fashioned way? Sure? Well maybe, 492 00:24:51,617 --> 00:24:55,097 Speaker 2: But Chalk's Male Vitality Stack is great for you. Forget 493 00:24:55,137 --> 00:24:58,457 Speaker 2: about any campaigns out there, because you don't need a miracle, 494 00:24:58,497 --> 00:25:00,937 Speaker 2: You just need a little boost. The patriots at Chalk 495 00:25:01,017 --> 00:25:04,457 Speaker 2: spent years formulating this daily supplement. Their formulations include all 496 00:25:04,537 --> 00:25:07,817 Speaker 2: natural ingredients, The leading ingredient in Chalk's Mail Vitality Stack 497 00:25:08,097 --> 00:25:10,817 Speaker 2: has been proven to replenish twenty percent of deficient amounts 498 00:25:10,857 --> 00:25:13,897 Speaker 2: of testosterone in three months time.

Okay, now, Kim, I asked you better. You 509 00:25:43,177 --> 00:25:45,137 Speaker 2: don't have a Netflix subscription? Good for you. I should 510 00:25:45,137 --> 00:25:48,697 Speaker 2: probably cut. I don't have Cable. I cut my Disney Plus, 511 00:25:48,857 --> 00:25:52,577 Speaker 2: I've cut I've cut my Hulu. I mean I'm Netflix. 512 00:25:52,617 --> 00:25:53,857 Speaker 2: I haven't given U yet. I'll be honest with you 513 00:25:53,857 --> 00:25:56,217 Speaker 2: because I like the Formula one show where they drive 514 00:25:56,257 --> 00:25:57,977 Speaker 2: the cars real fast. You know what I mean? Like 515 00:25:58,577 --> 00:26:00,857 Speaker 2: you know? And it's great because I actually car racing 516 00:26:00,897 --> 00:26:03,577 Speaker 2: I think is super boring to watch, but the storylines 517 00:26:03,617 --> 00:26:05,417 Speaker 2: around it, and the two minute version of the car 518 00:26:05,497 --> 00:26:08,417 Speaker 2: race that actually takes two hours is really fun. But 519 00:26:08,497 --> 00:26:13,937 Speaker 2: here's here's what happened. Jada Pinkett Smith has said that 520 00:26:14,017 --> 00:26:18,257 Speaker 2: she blames this was the headline white supremacy for the 521 00:26:18,297 --> 00:26:23,217 Speaker 2: flop of her new Netflix docu drama series Queen Cleopatra, 522 00:26:24,057 --> 00:26:28,497 Speaker 2: which has the worst audience ratings in US television history. Now, 523 00:26:28,537 --> 00:26:32,337 Speaker 2: Cleopatra would have been ethnically Greek because of the way 524 00:26:32,377 --> 00:26:35,737 Speaker 2: that the Greeks colonized that part of the Mediterranean. She 525 00:26:35,897 --> 00:26:38,177 Speaker 2: wasn't even an Arab and people think of Egypt, they 526 00:26:38,177 --> 00:26:41,097 Speaker 2: think of Arabs. No, Cleopatra would have been Greek. She 527 00:26:41,137 --> 00:26:46,137 Speaker 2: certainly was not a black woman. But they put they 528 00:26:46,217 --> 00:26:49,537 Speaker 2: put forward this story of Cleopatra as a black woman. 529 00:26:49,577 --> 00:26:52,417 Speaker 2: It bombs, and we're told that it bombs, not because 530 00:26:52,417 --> 00:26:55,777 Speaker 2: it's bad or just it's kind of a bizarre concept 531 00:26:55,777 --> 00:26:59,057 Speaker 2: to begin with. Why do this? But because of white supremacy? 532 00:26:59,097 --> 00:26:59,777 Speaker 2: What do you say? 533 00:27:01,017 --> 00:27:04,057 Speaker 1: I say, Jada Pinkett never seemed to have all of 534 00:27:04,057 --> 00:27:07,657 Speaker 1: her marbles to me, Okay, I mean this is wild, 535 00:27:07,737 --> 00:27:10,057 Speaker 1: but you know what, we can wait, we can wait 536 00:27:10,177 --> 00:27:12,137 Speaker 1: until the new Little Mermaid comes out and we can 537 00:27:12,177 --> 00:27:14,057 Speaker 1: compare the ratings, because I know a lot of people 538 00:27:14,057 --> 00:27:16,057 Speaker 1: that are going to go see that it has nothing 539 00:27:16,057 --> 00:27:19,377 Speaker 1: to do with white supremacy. Jenny Pickett has never been 540 00:27:19,457 --> 00:27:22,617 Speaker 1: a phenomenal actress. Let's just be blunt with that. And 541 00:27:22,737 --> 00:27:25,777 Speaker 1: number two, all the things surrounding her and Will Smith 542 00:27:26,097 --> 00:27:29,217 Speaker 1: and the oscars and the slapping of Chris Rock. I mean, 543 00:27:29,217 --> 00:27:30,817 Speaker 1: there's probably a lot of people that just don't want 544 00:27:30,817 --> 00:27:33,057 Speaker 1: to support her. And then she had that show I 545 00:27:33,057 --> 00:27:35,177 Speaker 1: guess it was called it The Red Table or something 546 00:27:35,817 --> 00:27:39,057 Speaker 1: where she talked about being unfaithful to Will Smith. A 547 00:27:39,097 --> 00:27:41,377 Speaker 1: lot of women I would think that would tune into 548 00:27:41,457 --> 00:27:44,417 Speaker 1: something like that. I mean, that's a complete turn off. 549 00:27:44,417 --> 00:27:47,617 Speaker 1: That's not somebody that we would relate to. So, you know, 550 00:27:47,737 --> 00:27:50,457 Speaker 1: she wants to blame white supremacy when she should really 551 00:27:50,497 --> 00:27:51,337 Speaker 1: just look in the mirror. 552 00:27:52,457 --> 00:27:54,777 Speaker 2: Yeah. Do you feel like white supremacy as a term 553 00:27:54,897 --> 00:27:58,737 Speaker 2: is just being used now by the left in this 554 00:27:59,137 --> 00:28:01,377 Speaker 2: way that you know, I've heard people say that the 555 00:28:01,417 --> 00:28:05,337 Speaker 2: school system has all this white supremacy and that, you know, 556 00:28:05,577 --> 00:28:07,977 Speaker 2: the federal government and the Constitution and all this stuff. 557 00:28:08,217 --> 00:28:10,777 Speaker 2: What does white supremacy even mean anymore. In the nineties, 558 00:28:10,817 --> 00:28:14,937 Speaker 2: it was neo Nazi, skinhead bad people who believed in 559 00:28:15,057 --> 00:28:19,057 Speaker 2: racial superiority and who were scum. And now it's used 560 00:28:19,137 --> 00:28:20,657 Speaker 2: kind of like you know what I mean, it's the 561 00:28:20,697 --> 00:28:23,577 Speaker 2: term white supremacy is thrown around all over the place. 562 00:28:24,097 --> 00:28:27,857 Speaker 2: Biden said at Howard University graduation. I'm sure you saw this, 563 00:28:28,457 --> 00:28:31,257 Speaker 2: that white supremacist terrorism is the biggest threat we face 564 00:28:31,337 --> 00:28:32,177 Speaker 2: is as a country. 565 00:28:33,417 --> 00:28:35,577 Speaker 1: I know, it's crazy. I hear it here in Baltimore 566 00:28:35,617 --> 00:28:37,737 Speaker 1: City they say that white supremacy is the reason that 567 00:28:37,777 --> 00:28:40,177 Speaker 1: so many people are living below the poverty line. The 568 00:28:40,257 --> 00:28:43,017 Speaker 1: problem with that is we have a black mayor, a 569 00:28:43,057 --> 00:28:46,217 Speaker 1: black district attorney, We've got a black police commissioner, we've 570 00:28:46,257 --> 00:28:49,777 Speaker 1: got a black school CEO. Everybody's black in charge. Our 571 00:28:49,897 --> 00:28:53,417 Speaker 1: city council mostly black, all Democrats, And so for them 572 00:28:53,457 --> 00:28:56,177 Speaker 1: to say white supremacy or even sometimes President Trump or 573 00:28:56,217 --> 00:28:59,457 Speaker 1: Republicans and like, there's nowhere to be found here. Right, 574 00:28:59,577 --> 00:29:02,137 Speaker 1: this is a self inflicted wounds. Right, You've got to 575 00:29:02,177 --> 00:29:04,857 Speaker 1: take responsibility for what's going on. But you're right, they 576 00:29:04,937 --> 00:29:08,377 Speaker 1: just use that term loosely, just like racism. Right, racist, 577 00:29:08,897 --> 00:29:10,617 Speaker 1: it's not it doesn't mean what it used to mean. 578 00:29:11,697 --> 00:29:13,737 Speaker 2: What do you think should be the core of not 579 00:29:13,777 --> 00:29:16,337 Speaker 2: just for a campaign or or you know, a one 580 00:29:16,417 --> 00:29:19,857 Speaker 2: off trying to convince people to vote the you know, vote, 581 00:29:19,857 --> 00:29:21,857 Speaker 2: in my opinion, the right way in the next election, 582 00:29:22,577 --> 00:29:27,697 Speaker 2: but in terms of bringing more and more members of 583 00:29:27,737 --> 00:29:32,377 Speaker 2: the black community in this country over to conservatism. What 584 00:29:32,617 --> 00:29:38,657 Speaker 2: is the what's the gateway? What's the best approach in 585 00:29:38,697 --> 00:29:40,897 Speaker 2: your mind? How do we get how do we get 586 00:29:40,977 --> 00:29:45,377 Speaker 2: more let's say black? Are they Baltimoreans? 587 00:29:45,457 --> 00:29:45,617 Speaker 1: Is that? 588 00:29:45,697 --> 00:29:48,737 Speaker 2: I'm not sure? You know how what is that? Is it? Baltimoreans? 589 00:29:48,777 --> 00:29:51,297 Speaker 2: Is that right? Okay? How do we get more black 590 00:29:51,337 --> 00:29:53,657 Speaker 2: residents of Baltimore or any city or anywhere in the 591 00:29:53,697 --> 00:29:58,897 Speaker 2: country for that matter too, to see that conservatism is 592 00:29:58,977 --> 00:30:01,817 Speaker 2: actually going to make their day to day lives as 593 00:30:01,817 --> 00:30:06,377 Speaker 2: an applied you know, political philosophy say for more prosperous 594 00:30:06,417 --> 00:30:08,457 Speaker 2: and you know, then that's actually what we want. And 595 00:30:08,457 --> 00:30:10,897 Speaker 2: then it's not actually on the right, you know, racism 596 00:30:10,977 --> 00:30:13,217 Speaker 2: and all the stuff that the Democrats always say. 597 00:30:14,697 --> 00:30:17,177 Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's very complicated. You know what I did 598 00:30:17,217 --> 00:30:20,297 Speaker 1: my viral ad, I got a lot of backlash because 599 00:30:20,297 --> 00:30:22,057 Speaker 1: there were a lot of people in Baltimore. It said, well, 600 00:30:22,057 --> 00:30:24,857 Speaker 1: you're airing our dirty laundry or like it might be true, 601 00:30:24,897 --> 00:30:26,977 Speaker 1: but we don't want everybody to know. Right, that's what 602 00:30:27,057 --> 00:30:29,737 Speaker 1: I heard. I would say that the best thing to 603 00:30:29,777 --> 00:30:32,057 Speaker 1: do is talk about the fact, even though they believe 604 00:30:32,097 --> 00:30:34,817 Speaker 1: the government owes them something, we know the government owes 605 00:30:34,817 --> 00:30:37,097 Speaker 1: you absolutely nothing. But talk about the fact that they're 606 00:30:37,177 --> 00:30:40,297 Speaker 1: now being replaced. Right, They're being replaced by the legal immigrant. 607 00:30:40,337 --> 00:30:43,617 Speaker 1: This is why they're being knocked off of the housing 608 00:30:43,657 --> 00:30:47,977 Speaker 1: waiting list. Right, You're now being replaced by the LGBTQ community. Right, 609 00:30:48,017 --> 00:30:50,697 Speaker 1: You're not the minority anymore. You're not the ones that 610 00:30:50,777 --> 00:30:53,897 Speaker 1: Democrats are trying to court for voters. You are now 611 00:30:53,977 --> 00:30:56,617 Speaker 1: just like everybody else. And you've got to now fend 612 00:30:56,617 --> 00:30:58,857 Speaker 1: for yourself, go out there and get it done. And 613 00:30:58,897 --> 00:31:01,377 Speaker 1: so the only people, the only party where you could 614 00:31:01,417 --> 00:31:04,257 Speaker 1: actually do that and succeed, would be the Republican Party 615 00:31:04,297 --> 00:31:06,777 Speaker 1: because other than that, you got the Democrats that want 616 00:31:06,817 --> 00:31:09,537 Speaker 1: you to stay on government assistants. They want to control 617 00:31:09,577 --> 00:31:12,057 Speaker 1: your lives. You've got to take control of your life. 618 00:31:12,057 --> 00:31:14,177 Speaker 1: And so that's why I have my radio show book 619 00:31:14,257 --> 00:31:16,497 Speaker 1: and like I keep talking to everybody every single day 620 00:31:16,777 --> 00:31:19,057 Speaker 1: I hope that they're listening. But at the end of 621 00:31:19,057 --> 00:31:22,057 Speaker 1: the day, people have to understand, when you're on government assistant, 622 00:31:22,097 --> 00:31:24,297 Speaker 1: you're only going to get so far right. You've got 623 00:31:24,297 --> 00:31:26,457 Speaker 1: to take control and responsibility for what you have and 624 00:31:26,577 --> 00:31:27,177 Speaker 1: your family. 625 00:31:28,177 --> 00:31:33,537 Speaker 2: Kim Klasik on nine am eastern to noon on WCBM Radio, Kim, 626 00:31:34,137 --> 00:31:36,137 Speaker 2: stay in the fight. Appreciate you being with us. Talk 627 00:31:36,137 --> 00:31:36,577 Speaker 2: to you soon. 628 00:31:37,697 --> 00:31:38,897 Speaker 1: Thank you, I appreciate it.
