1 00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:09,360 Speaker 1: It's that time time time lucking load. 2 00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:13,800 Speaker 2: So Michael Verry Show is on the air. 3 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:23,280 Speaker 3: Right looking into Mica. We gotta feed a beard. 4 00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:26,960 Speaker 4: I don't plan to shave, and it's good thing, but 5 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 4: I just gotta see. I'm doing all right, will I'm 6 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:36,720 Speaker 4: making some pot beats beating verdict. 7 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:42,519 Speaker 3: That's a true. It's neither drinking a drug and just snool. 8 00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 4: I'm just doing all right. 9 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 2: It's a great dad. 10 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:49,880 Speaker 5: I don't know I'm sound still. 11 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 2: Man walks into the doctor's office with an apple in 12 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 2: his ear and a banana up his butt and the 13 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 2: doctor says. He says to the doctor, I don't feel 14 00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 2: very good, doc. Doc says, I see your problem. You're 15 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 2: not eating properly. The Kamala Harris campaign is supposed to 16 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:16,040 Speaker 2: be about. 17 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 1: Joy, because that's good when you don't have any actual policies, 18 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 1: or worse, when your policies are terrible. 19 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:35,040 Speaker 2: You run on the basis that you're real happy and 20 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 2: the other guys not real happy. Okay, I guess there's 21 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 2: somebody dumb enough to buy that. Yeah, there is, there are, 22 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 2: and I just hope it's not very many. But there 23 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 2: are actual policies. Kamala Harris has said she will actually 24 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 2: do some things. And those things that she says she 25 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:09,399 Speaker 2: will actually do for people who are paying attention are horrifying, 26 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 2: absolutely horrifying, and it would create our economy. It doesn't 27 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:23,079 Speaker 2: mean that America won't exist. There just won't be the 28 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:27,919 Speaker 2: America that you've loved. There won't be the America of opportunity. 29 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 2: And people that don't own a business, people that just 30 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 2: get welfare, people that just pull a salary, punch a clock, think, oh, 31 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,920 Speaker 2: it doesn't matter to me, that doesn't affect me. Oh 32 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:51,239 Speaker 2: but it does. It absolutely does. It will affect you 33 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 2: in a very very big way. Those policies, corporate tax rate, 34 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 2: capital gains. We will discuss with our show sponsors, who 35 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:08,359 Speaker 2: are strategic planners. They are CPAs as well, but there's 36 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 2: so much more. They help folks make good strategic decisions. 37 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 2: They do internal compliance and audit, and that is Deroached Partners. 38 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 2: Harvin la Lawhan has agreed to be our guest at 39 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 2: nine o'clock today to discuss what that will look like 40 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 2: for his clients and many of you, and how that 41 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 2: will affect businesses generally. We'll talk to Harvin Lawhan the 42 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 2: he should change his name to Harvin Lawhorn, because every 43 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 2: time I say it, I say Lawhorn and I have 44 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 2: to correct myself to Lawhan. But Harvin Lawhan will be 45 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 2: our guest at nine am to talk about capital gains 46 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 2: and corporate tax rates and how it will affect your business. 47 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 2: Are those that you are aware of. I want to 48 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 2: thank you if you've ever done anything for Camp Hope, 49 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 2: because it makes a real difference. I got more contact 50 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 2: this weekend on a veteran whose life was changed and 51 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 2: his mother sent the nicest message. On Friday, I got 52 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,600 Speaker 2: a message a guy who was living under a bridge, 53 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 2: suicidal at the literally living under a bridge at the 54 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 2: end of his rope. And now he two years later, 55 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 2: he owns a home, lives with his wife and his children. 56 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 2: He's boy. He's grateful for the life that most of 57 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 2: us would take take for granted. 58 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:42,720 Speaker 3: He is. 59 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 2: He is a functioning adult getting to enjoy the things 60 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 2: that life has to offer, and Camp Hope provided that 61 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 2: for him. Folks will ask me if I can have 62 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,679 Speaker 2: Camp Hope call the veteran, and that's not how it works. 63 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 2: The veteran has to be ready to call, and that's 64 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 2: the hard part. It's an easy call, and it gets 65 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 2: easier from there. But you've got to put the phone 66 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 2: in the veteran's hand and make them call. 67 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 5: I know it. 68 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 2: I know it feels a little heavy handed to do 69 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 2: that because you think, well, am I overreacting? I think 70 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:25,600 Speaker 2: you'd rather that than as happens, because we get contacted 71 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 2: in these situations where you didn't overreact and you thought, gosh, boy, 72 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:33,600 Speaker 2: he's talking about taking his own life. He's threatening it. 73 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 2: He seems down and I don't think he'd do it. 74 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 2: But don't wait until you're proved wrong. So if you 75 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 2: have a veteran in your life that you think needs help, 76 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 2: if you're not sure, then they probably need help. It 77 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 2: will not cost them a dime because our listeners provide it, 78 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 2: our listeners and other people as well. But you have 79 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 2: supported Camp Home as part of the PTSD Foundation of 80 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 2: America for eleven years now, and I am ever grateful 81 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 2: for the things that you do for these veterans. I 82 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 2: don't think of it as an organization because I think 83 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 2: sometimes the organization can spiral out of control and forget 84 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 2: their mission. Camp Hope is veterans helping veterans meet suicide, 85 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 2: which is what PTSD ends up leading to Camp hope 86 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 2: is veterans helping veterans. The thing we raise money for 87 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 2: is giving them air conditioning in a space and food 88 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:43,479 Speaker 2: for while they do it. That's the purpose of the organization. 89 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:49,480 Speaker 2: That's what the organization does. So many times, the importance 90 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 2: of what you're supposed to do gets lost in the 91 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 2: extraneous things. Schools forget that. The only thing you're in 92 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:09,479 Speaker 2: the business of is teaching children. Everything else is extraneous, sports, extracurriculars, 93 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 2: teach your education, teach your conferences, teach your compensation or 94 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 2: more administrator compensation and all the things that go with that. 95 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 2: You can go back to the one room schoolhouse. Just 96 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 2: teach the children. If we need computers to bring them 97 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 2: into the modern era, okay, let's get computers donated. Put 98 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 2: the kids in front of the computer, and someone helped them. 99 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 2: Although a lot of computer learning can be self guided, 100 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 2: it should be about those kids. Hospitals should be about 101 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 2: treating illness and healing patience. Parents should be focused on 102 00:07:56,360 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 2: raising good young men and women of the future. Sure, 103 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 2: everything else is extraneous. When you focus on those core functions, 104 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 2: you succeed. But it's easy, isn't it. It's easy to 105 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 2: get distracted with all the other things that when you 106 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 2: get right down to it, aren't making a difference. If 107 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 2: you have a veteran in need of Camp Hope, go 108 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 2: to Camp Hope and then PTSD Foundation of America eight 109 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 2: seven seven seven one seven PTSD eight seven seven seven 110 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 2: one seven PTSD And if you want to help the organization, 111 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 2: I'm going to read the number or recite the number, 112 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 2: and if you need it later, just go back to 113 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 2: the podcast eight three two nine one two forty four 114 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 2: twenty nine eight three two nine one two forty four 115 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 2: twenty nine, or you can find them online. There's nice videos. 116 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 2: You can email them. But thank you for the people 117 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 2: whose lives you save in their families that you don't 118 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 2: get to me to. 119 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 3: Think like them. 120 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 2: Will reprint them or refund your money, no matter who's 121 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:58,079 Speaker 2: fault it is the Michael Arry Show. You have a 122 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 2: photo that your photo na. The RFK Junior endorsement a 123 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 2: few days ago of President Trump was a long time 124 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 2: in coming. The day President Trump was shot, which I 125 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 2: believe was July thirteenth, within a couple of hours of 126 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 2: being shot, he was on the phone with RFK Junior, 127 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 2: who has a unique perspective when it comes to assassination 128 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:34,959 Speaker 2: of political figures. Of course, his father, the Attorney General, 129 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 2: who was running for president in sixty eight, was assassinated 130 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:45,559 Speaker 2: in a kitchen of a hotel ballroom in California, and 131 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 2: his uncle, of course, John F. Kennedy, being the most 132 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 2: famous president assassinated of the twentieth century. I would argue 133 00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 2: that the Lincoln assassination is probably a bigger moment in history, 134 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 2: but I don't know that we need to get into 135 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 2: comparative suffering. This is a man who has known assassination 136 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 2: and what warped people will do because someone is an 137 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:24,719 Speaker 2: elected official. He was denied Secret Service protection by the 138 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:33,959 Speaker 2: Biden administration, a petty, cruel, really nasty thing to do. 139 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 2: I have to think that bothered him on a level 140 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,840 Speaker 2: that was seared into his mind in such a way 141 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 2: he would never forget it. Not saying that's why he endorsed. 142 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 2: He decided to run for president against Joe Biden, and 143 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 2: the Democrats spent a lot of money to keep him 144 00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 2: off the ballot, and they prevented the Democrat primary from 145 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:05,839 Speaker 2: happening for one reason, to keep Biden from having to 146 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 2: go against Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. I think Biden would 147 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 2: have won, but we can't be sure. Rfk Jr. If 148 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 2: there had been a debate, an actual competition for who 149 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 2: would be the Democrat nominee, he would have scored some points. 150 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 2: His greatest weakness is he has a vocal dysphonia due 151 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 2: to a vocal chord spasm and partial paralysis that makes 152 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 2: him speak. If you've heard him speak, you know that 153 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 2: he speaks in a gravelly voice and a spasmatic fashion, 154 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 2: in much the same way, or I guess somewhat the 155 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 2: same way that if a person has a stutter, there 156 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 2: is an awkward cadence. But for him, it is as 157 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 2: if his vocal chords, which are actually not chords, or flaps. 158 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 2: It's like the strength to them comes and goes. It 159 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:07,079 Speaker 2: takes away from his presentation. And yet and I have 160 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:11,199 Speaker 2: always admired this, I've said this about him, and yet 161 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 2: he did not let it hold him back. He's a 162 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,319 Speaker 2: handsome fellow. He's seventy years old, and I saw a 163 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 2: video of him that's made its way around working out. 164 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 2: He's a fitness buff. He has the Kennedy good looks, 165 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 2: he has their whole striking appearance. He's always sun tanned 166 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:33,680 Speaker 2: because you know that matters. He speaks with a confidence, 167 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:39,679 Speaker 2: he speaks with a sense of purpose, and that's very 168 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 2: attractive to voters. He is kind of a cross between 169 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:53,959 Speaker 2: a liberal, a traditional Democrat liberal, and he has some 170 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 2: libertarian strains. He got quite involved on the issue of 171 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 2: the on the general issue of health, but particularly as 172 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 2: it relates to our children years ago, and he has 173 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 2: something of a missionary zeal over it, particularly as it 174 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,079 Speaker 2: relates to the food we feed our children and the 175 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 2: vaccines that are injected into them, and how that has 176 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 2: affected his life, his daughter, and how once you become 177 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 2: a spokesman for an issue, then you tend to get 178 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 2: You become something of a magnet or a lightning rod 179 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,959 Speaker 2: that people who haven't experience will now reach out to. 180 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 4: You. 181 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 2: Tell my story, Tell my son's story, Tell my daughter's 182 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,959 Speaker 2: story of what happened when she took the vaccine. And 183 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 2: so that has become an issue where he has really 184 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 2: galvanized a lot of support from people that probably weren't 185 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 2: very political, who as a result, saw him as a 186 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 2: person speaking about these issues that no one else would. 187 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 2: He's a pretty aggressive environmental activist and lawyer, bringing lawsuits. 188 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 2: I don't agree with him one hundred percent, but I 189 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:14,199 Speaker 2: don't disagree one hundred percent because he does. One component 190 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 2: of his activism is going after polluters. And I don't 191 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 2: believe in climate change, at least not man made, and 192 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 2: I don't believe in environmental regulations that are dictated by 193 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 2: the Chinese to keep us from being able to provide 194 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 2: our own energy. But I do believe in going after polluters, 195 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 2: absolutely positively. If you soil the earth that my children 196 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 2: are going to live on, you should be punished. I 197 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 2: believe that. And whether that is our water bodies, or 198 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 2: our air, or our earth, I do believe that, and 199 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 2: I believe that strongly. And I think a lot of 200 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 2: folks don't understand how sometimes the environmental folks can go 201 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 2: too far. But that also that activism and outspoken lead 202 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 2: on subject have galvanized a degree of support. And then, 203 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 2: of course he's a Kennedy. There are, particularly among older Democrats, 204 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 2: there is still this vision of Camelot and what a 205 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 2: time when you could be proud to be a Democrat 206 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 2: and people were proud to be a Democrat. So when 207 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 2: President Trump was shot and he called Robert Kennedy that day, 208 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 2: the reason we knew it was They were filming a 209 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 2: documentary on RFK and he's speaking on the speakerphone and 210 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 2: the camera kept rolling and there are various versions of 211 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 2: how it happened. But RFK Junior apologized for that because 212 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 2: it should he should not have recorded that call without 213 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 2: his knowledge and says he didn't know it. I'll take 214 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 2: him at his word on that, but that was the moment. 215 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 2: The inadvertent takeaway from that President Trump didn't say anything 216 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 2: you should be ashamed of the Inadverton. Take away from 217 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 2: that was that they had an ongoing conversation and that 218 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 2: is a big step toward what ended up with RFK Junior, 219 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 2: of course endorsing him. Over the weekend, Jill Stein, who 220 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 2: rf vice president Vice presidential candidate Nicole Shanahan, had said 221 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 2: that she believed that Cornell West and Jill Stein would 222 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 2: endorse President Trump. And you may think, well, what does 223 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 2: that matter, who's supporting them. If it's one percentage point, 224 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 2: it's real. And if it's one percentage point in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, 225 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:51,600 Speaker 2: North Carolina, Arizona, Georgia, that's a game changer. Now, a 226 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 2: candidate exiting the race and endorsing another candidate does not 227 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 2: mean that every one will follow with them. These are 228 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,720 Speaker 2: often fiercely independent people. That's why they're not voting with 229 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 2: one of the two major parties to start with. But 230 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 2: each of these little things start to add up when 231 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 2: you're looking at where we are November fit the President 232 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 2: getting shot will be a net positive to him. I 233 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 2: hate that he had to go through it. RFK endorsing him. 234 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 2: Then if Jill Stein and Cornell West the debates the 235 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:32,160 Speaker 2: way that the coup of Biden, we got a long 236 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,359 Speaker 2: way to go. But I feel very good right now. 237 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 3: Hipothings beifulsen. 238 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 5: I wish that somebody would open up a restaurant. 239 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:53,920 Speaker 2: And name it. 240 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 5: I don't care, so that I can findly go to 241 00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 5: the place of my life is always talking about. And 242 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:13,160 Speaker 5: at that restaurant, I hope they have super salads, because 243 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:14,960 Speaker 5: every time they ask me if I want a super salad, 244 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 5: I say, yeah, I would love a super salad. 245 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 2: Is it extraordinary? 246 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 5: And then they say, no, sir, we said a soup 247 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:28,679 Speaker 5: or a salad, not a super salad. 248 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 3: Well, then why do you start saying salad or soup. 249 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 5: It's still getting everybody's hopes up because we know soup's 250 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 5: not gonna get me, Slader. 251 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:48,119 Speaker 3: It's a fact. It's time to realize that. 252 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:49,679 Speaker 5: He relies. 253 00:18:55,480 --> 00:19:10,119 Speaker 3: Everything Tuesday. 254 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 2: Sing it to. 255 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 3: Under the God's him. 256 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 2: President Trump will visit Arlington National Cemetery today, the three 257 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 2: year anniversary of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris's botched withdrawal 258 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 2: that caused thirteen American service members to be killed. Kamala 259 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:55,920 Speaker 2: Harris claimed to be the last person in the room, 260 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:03,919 Speaker 2: the decision maker. Part being a decision maker is taking 261 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 2: responsibility for failure. What you're witnessing by the media and 262 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:18,239 Speaker 2: Democrats attempt but I repeat myself what you're witnessing by 263 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 2: saying she's in charge, she's strong, she's tough, she's a leader, 264 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 2: but for every failure, claiming she had nothing to do 265 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 2: with it. You will notice this behavior in people who 266 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 2: are not leaders. You see it in your company, You'll 267 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:46,439 Speaker 2: see it in the group. It's it's it's a human 268 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:54,880 Speaker 2: tendency to flee the blame. But a real leader will say, 269 00:20:55,560 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 2: it doesn't matter who was responsible, I bear the final responsibility. 270 00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:08,880 Speaker 2: Probably the most famous thing Harry S. Truman did other 271 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 2: than the Dewey defeats Truman headline from the Chicago Tribune 272 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 2: was the buck stops here. The decision making rests on 273 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 2: my desk. It really doesn't matter who's at fault. I 274 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 2: make the decisions, I bear the responsibility. And a truly 275 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 2: great leader does not need the credit for the success, 276 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:41,200 Speaker 2: but steps in the line of the bullet and says, 277 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 2: I'll take all the responsibility for the failure. A real 278 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:54,639 Speaker 2: leader who is respected as such will do that and 279 00:21:54,880 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 2: gains further respect because of it. The Democrats in their 280 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:04,200 Speaker 2: media are having a very difficult time right now because 281 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 2: they can't decide which narrative do you say? Kamala hasn't 282 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 2: spent four years drunk, staggering around saying dumb stuff and 283 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 2: doing nothing else. She's been in charge. She was the 284 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 2: decision maker in Afghanistan. She was the borderzar, which we 285 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 2: told you at the time. She was in charge of technology, 286 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:39,680 Speaker 2: she's the leader, she made economic policy. Do you say that? 287 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:44,959 Speaker 2: Because the knock on her is she's never done anything 288 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:52,640 Speaker 2: other than Willie Brown, and it's a fair knock. She's 289 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 2: never done anything. She falls upward and everybody knows a 290 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:05,639 Speaker 2: minority fee who just manages to keep landing things and 291 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 2: never does anything in the job. Everybody knows that person. 292 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 2: It's not every minority female, but there are people like 293 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 2: this and we've all seen it. The token. You see 294 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 2: them in a university, you see them in a job organization, 295 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:29,200 Speaker 2: especially a public company, and whatever they're put in charge of. 296 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 2: Everybody knows, man, there better be a number two. And 297 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,920 Speaker 2: you know what else, everybody knows the demographic of the 298 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 2: person who's going to be the number two. And that 299 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 2: person is going to run things, and that person's going 300 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 2: to make the decisions. But the minority female, she's going 301 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 2: to give all the speeches, she's going to get all 302 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:57,359 Speaker 2: the credit. There've mean lots of articles, glowing articles about her. 303 00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:04,679 Speaker 2: She's gonna address nicely. Everybody has seen that person, everybody, 304 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 2: and unfortunately she besmirches minority females who are actually good 305 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 2: and they know this, They know this type. And that's 306 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:25,719 Speaker 2: what Kamala is and always has been. So the problem 307 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:29,879 Speaker 2: now is you've got to tell voters, especially those that 308 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,919 Speaker 2: pay a little bit of attention, who are really working 309 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 2: to make up their mind. No, no, no, she is competent. 310 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:38,560 Speaker 3: She is a leader. 311 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 2: She's never been called a leader. She's never been a leader. 312 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:47,360 Speaker 2: She's never been in charge of anything. This is the struggle. 313 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 2: Before JFK and sixty, you didn't see senators become president, 314 00:24:55,520 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 2: and it hasn't happened very often. Richard Nixon would go 315 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 2: on to be vice president before he was president. But 316 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 2: you got this real challenge and Jaya, and the same 317 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 2: with Lennon Johnson. The real challenge is what did she 318 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,399 Speaker 2: do for the last year, last four years? Because if 319 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 2: you take responsibility for what happened in the Biden administration, 320 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:20,440 Speaker 2: that's even worse. 321 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 4: It is more to the point to roll out the 322 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 4: barrel and beer ears. 323 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 5: I like beer. 324 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:35,639 Speaker 3: It makes me a jolly good palace.

Her ex 351 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 2: boyfriend in the photo and it's a photo of her, 352 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:43,679 Speaker 2: and this guy has a warrant and is violent.

She drives a white Kia Carnival which 355 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 2: has not been located yet. We're filing a missing person's report. 356 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 2: And it came back later and posted they were last 357 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 2: seen in Colorado. The vehicle is on a plate reader, 358 00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:09,399 Speaker 2: the automatic plate the alpl's automatic license plate reader. His 359 00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 2: wife then posted more update all we know about the 360 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,119 Speaker 2: cars that it went through a reader in Colorado on 361 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:20,959 Speaker 2: August twenty fifth, so that's yesterday Friday evening. DPS has 362 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:22,920 Speaker 2: been working on it the best they can because the 363 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 2: GPS isn't on and no cell phones are on, there's 364 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 2: no science exactly where the car is. By now, we 365 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 2: haven't heard anything back from DPS, but they're on it, 366 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,360 Speaker 2: and the missing persons have been filed. We've had lots 367 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:35,159 Speaker 2: of leads and trying to sift through them until we 368 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,920 Speaker 2: can get Kia to activate the GPS tomorrow morning, and 369 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 2: also figure out what apartment she's in, as she moved 370 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 2: on Tuesday and nobody knows the number and the complex 371 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 2: is closed today, so we desperately need to get in tomorrow. 372 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 2: And she went in to say how much they appreciate 373 00:28:52,960 --> 00:29:02,720 Speaker 2: everyone's help. Apparently the guy she's with, if I read correctly, 374 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 2: I can't find that message. I believe he has a 375 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 2: warrant out for his arrest. Her boyfriend is in trouble 376 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 2: with law from when he assaulted her last month, and 377 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:17,640 Speaker 2: we don't know if she went with him willingly, was 378 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 2: talked into running away with him or what. I still 379 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 2: feel she would never abandon her three children. It doesn't 380 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 2: sound good. It's very concerning, you know, it makes me 381 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 2: think of this. 382 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 5: There is. 383 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 2: You know, I've thought about this later in life because 384 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 2: I study people and success. I don't have a hobby. 385 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,239 Speaker 2: This is what I do. I study people and how 386 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 2: the decisions you make will often put you on a course, 387 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 2: and how personality traits that you were born with and 388 00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 2: that you cultivate will affect where you end up in 389 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 2: life in so many ways. Not just whether you're rich 390 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:09,880 Speaker 2: or poor, the president of the company or the lowest rung, 391 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 2: well paid or poorly paid, any of that, but it 392 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 2: could also affect your overall happiness. And I have known 393 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 2: people who have made good money and are miserable human beings. 394 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 2: And I've known people who on very little money have 395 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 2: managed to find happiness. For my grandmother's generation, that was 396 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:39,000 Speaker 2: quite common. My grandmother never had a dime to her name, 397 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 2: but she managed to find happiness in little things. And 398 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 2: it might seem laughable today, but a cigarette for her 399 00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:51,000 Speaker 2: to walk out on the porch and have a cigarette 400 00:30:52,480 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 2: for that generation, and I've told this story before. Who 401 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 2: is anybody else to judge that she didn't have a 402 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 2: lot going on. My grandfather worked maintenance for the schools, 403 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 2: and he drove a bus, and he would drive the 404 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 2: athletic buses for extra jobs, and so he was out 405 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 2: almost all the time. And so for my grandmother there 406 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:29,720 Speaker 2: was a little joy in having a cigarette, and she'd 407 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 2: ask me if I want to go outside and sit 408 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 2: with her while she smoked, and we would sit outside 409 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:34,880 Speaker 2: and talk and watch the birds and the squirrels and 410 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 2: different things going on. But somehow she managed to find 411 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:45,320 Speaker 2: a happiness, or at least she provided a countenance of 412 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 2: a person who found happiness in what the rest of 413 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 2: us were doing. But back to my point, when you 414 00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 2: look at if you were to say, I want somebody 415 00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 2: to turn out well as we would say and whatever 416 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:10,200 Speaker 2: that means. So we put all this time into our kids, 417 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 2: little league baseball, into our kids sports for girls, volleyball, 418 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:25,600 Speaker 2: cheer softball, basketball, drive them back and forth, spend insane 419 00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 2: amounts of time and in many cases money on these 420 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:33,640 Speaker 2: things for them, and then making sure they're studying at 421 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 2: school because that's going to be so important in their lives. 422 00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 2: And yet and they're kinsanellas, and they're bar mitzvahs and 423 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 2: bat mitzvah's and these various confirmations. But the person they marry, 424 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:59,719 Speaker 2: their partner is going to have more influence on all 425 00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 2: of that then almost anything else they're gonna do. Now, 426 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 2: you hope that you raise them right to where they 427 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 2: choose someone. That's a good prayer. I can't tell you 428 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:15,959 Speaker 2: how many women fall prey to bad men who abuse them, 429 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:20,800 Speaker 2: kill them, steal everything they have, drag them, drag them 430 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 2: into bad credit, and drag them into crime. And it 431 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 2: breaks my heart because you see the parents having to 432 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:32,280 Speaker 2: go through that. You've got it's usually a daughter that's 433 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 2: affected by this turd of a guy. Uh, it can 434 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 2: go the other way, but that's usually the way. It 435 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 2: is just amazing, you know, in that when you're when 436 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 2: your child says they're getting married, you think about that 437 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 2: person's going to have more to do with their success 438 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 2: than almost anything else in life.
