- 1:59Speaker 1: and nobody ever wants to do that. They all want
- 2:02Speaker 1: to have the radio on. Nobody actually wants to be
- 2:05Speaker 1: the blessed. The security guards here at the Gaylord in
- 2:08Speaker 1: Dallas for understanding, they see this harried looking guy with
- 2:12Speaker 1: bug eyes come up with bags in his hands, saying,
- 2:14Speaker 1: they told me it was gonna begin side and they

- 2:20Speaker 1: and she's looking very tolerantly at me. And I've got
- 2:23Speaker 1: to tell you, seely, this CBD oil may have had
- 2:26Speaker 1: some impact on the fact that I didn't have a
- 2:29Speaker 1: full blown chubby meltdown over the fact that the broadcast row.
- 2:34Speaker 1: Nobody had told anybody, Because that's what happens is you're
- 2:38Speaker 1: waiting for somebody to send an email to someone who

- 3:09Speaker 1: the fun and frolic here from Seapac this morning and

- 3:16Speaker 1: the day President Trump addresses the crowd here in Dallas.
- 3:21Speaker 1: But this is all for you. Go to CEPAC dot

- 3:35Speaker 1: That becomes a whole other set of bureaucracies you have

- 3:40Speaker 1: for listening to us here in Big d Our. First
- 3:43Speaker 1: things this morning, Around's foreign minister said Wednesday, Tehran will
- 3:47Speaker 1: be the ones deciding win war ends ominously. He said
- 3:53Speaker 1: they will not negotiate with the United States after rejecting
- 3:56Speaker 1: the fifteen point US backed peace propose, calling it excessive
- 4:01Speaker 1: and unacceptable. Meanwhile, the US military and Sentcom said that
- 4:07Speaker 1: they had just finished their ten thousandth strike on an
- 4:11Speaker 1: Iranian target. Brad Cooper, commander of the US Central Command,
- 4:15Speaker 1: said in an operational update on X sentences you never
- 4:20Speaker 1: expected to say when you got into broadcasting Iran on
- 4:24Speaker 1: Wednesday also threatened vessels passing through another oil shipping route
- 4:28Speaker 1: after its halted traffic through threats at the Strait of
- 4:32Speaker 1: Horn moves. The Bob al Memdeb Strait, which connects the
- 4:36Speaker 1: Red Sea to the Gulf of Aden on the other
- 4:39Speaker 1: side of the Arabian Peninsula, is another checkpoint joke point
- 4:43Speaker 1: for global trade energy as it moves through there. Former
- 4:48Speaker 1: Cuban president Raoul Castro is still alive, and he is
- 4:52Speaker 1: apparently the mediator in talks between the island's government's president
- 4:57Speaker 1: Midguel Diaz Canal and the United States, trying to ease
- 5:04Speaker 1: tensions between the two countries that have existed since Raoul's
- 5:09Speaker 1: brother came to power in the late fifties. President Trump
- 5:13Speaker 1: is going to visit China for a state visit. We've
- 5:15Speaker 1: told you that Chinese Chairman Shijing Ping will meet the
- 5:19Speaker 1: President May fourteenth and fifteenth, the White House announced, and
- 5:23Speaker 1: he is assembling the president is a high profile group
- 5:26Speaker 1: of technology and business leaders, including Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg
- 5:31Speaker 1: and Oracle executive chairman Larry Ellison, along with Nvidia's CEO
- 5:37Speaker 1: Jensen Wang. Transportation Security Administration Acting Administrator Hanyin McNeil Warren
- 5:45Speaker 1: lawmakers that if the shutdown goes on two muths longer
- 5:49Speaker 1: over TSA, some regional airports might have to close because
- 5:55Speaker 1: TSA is being forced to consolidate. Those are some of
- 5:59Speaker 1: our first things which.
- 6:02Speaker 8: Every state is home to significant historic sites that tell
- 6:06Speaker 8: the American story, but not every site is telling that
- 6:09Speaker 8: story honestly and fairly. That's why the Heritage Foundation created
- 6:13Speaker 8: the Heritage Guide to Historic Sites. This interactive guide equips
- 6:17Speaker 8: American citizens with the tools they need to enjoy the
- 6:21Speaker 8: sites that depict some of the greatest moments in our
- 6:24Speaker 8: nation's history, analyzing them for historical accuracy, and provides resources
- 6:29Speaker 8: for families or educators planning a visit. It currently covers
- 6:33Speaker 8: over forty five sites in the thirteen original colonies, but
- 6:37Speaker 8: sites from all fifty states will be added in time
- 6:40Speaker 8: for citizens to celebrate America to fifty this summer. From
- 6:43Speaker 8: Mount Vernon to Independence Hall to Gettysburg and more. Americans
- 6:48Speaker 8: deserve transparency and sites that steward our history faithfully deserve
- 6:53Speaker 8: our gratitude. The Heritage Guide to Historic Sites invites every
- 6:57Speaker 8: American to rediscover the places and stories take to fine.
- 7:01Speaker 9: You know, it's true, difficult times have a way of
- 7:03Speaker 9: focusing us. We have to think about what matters most
- 7:07Speaker 9: when it comes to our spending our healthcare. This is
- 7:09Speaker 9: why so many people are joining meta share right now.
- 7:13Speaker 9: Metas Share is a trusted way to save up to
- 7:15Speaker 9: fifty percent on your monthly healthcare costs. More than four
- 7:19Speaker 9: hundred thousand people have already made the switch. It's pretty
- 7:22Speaker 9: obvious why, especially now during this challenging season with health
- 7:26Speaker 9: care costs and out of pocket.
- 7:27Speaker 3: Expenses going up.
- 7:28Speaker 9: Metas Share can save you a lot of money. The
- 7:31Speaker 9: typical family saves five hundred dollars a month. Meta Share
- 7:35Speaker 9: works too. It's been around for thirty years. Members have
- 7:37Speaker 9: shared more than five billion dollars of each other's bills.
- 7:41Speaker 9: There are different options to choose from to fit your budget.
- 7:43Speaker 9: I'll give you the number here in a second, and
- 7:45Speaker 9: if you call, you can get a price within two minutes.
- 7:48Speaker 9: Maybe now is the perfect time to make the switch
- 7:51Speaker 9: and start saving. Here you go call eight five five
- 7:54Speaker 9: share forty. That's eight five five shre forty. Eight five
- 7:59Speaker 9: five share.
- 8:03Speaker 2: Considered by most optimized curcumin is one of the few
- 8:07Speaker 2: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 8:13Speaker 2: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 8:18Speaker 2: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 8:22Speaker 2: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 8:26Speaker 2: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 8:31Speaker 2: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 8:36Speaker 2: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 8:42Speaker 2: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 8:46Speaker 2: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
- 8:50Speaker 2: healthy cells even from radiation. Total wellness dot com where

- 9:58Speaker 11: Hi, everybody, I'm Jack Hannah.
- 10:00Speaker 12: It's always a boy growing up on a farm in Tennessee,
- 10:02Speaker 12: I've been fascinated with animals. I'm not only in all
- 10:05Speaker 12: of their beauty and kindness, but also their tireless work ethic.
- 10:08Speaker 12: Just look at the birds who gather supplies to build nests,
- 10:11Speaker 12: or Swiss foxes who work hard to provide for their young,
- 10:14Speaker 12: or penguins who travel up to five hundred miles to
- 10:17Speaker 12: secure food for their families, or bush babies, whose impressive
- 10:20Speaker 12: jump allows them to navigate the trees and the wild
- 10:22Speaker 12: in search of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared
- 10:25Speaker 12: by our best friends, the canines. We know dogs are
- 10:28Speaker 12: wonderful pets at home, but because of their acute senses,
- 10:32Speaker 12: they also perform life saving work every day.
- 10:34Speaker 11: Dogs keep us safe at airports.
- 10:36Speaker 12: They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer from PTS.
- 10:38Speaker 12: They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's a change
- 10:41Speaker 12: in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a variety of
- 10:44Speaker 12: highly trained roles that contribute to society and help those
- 10:47Speaker 12: in need. So please join me an American Humane and
- 10:50Speaker 12: supporting our heroic working dogs and all the amazing animals

- 11:06Speaker 15: I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
- 11:10Speaker 15: heart and brain.
- 11:12Speaker 1: Who's with me?

- 13:10Speaker 3: Is the first thing today on the Talk Media Network
- 13:17Speaker 3: by Joe Jamas.
- 13:22Speaker 1: Five from Seapack in Dallas. Thank you for letting us
- 13:25Speaker 1: be of service to you. Four three four eighty two
- 13:29Speaker 1: four to two one seven ego kareem. I think this
- 13:32Speaker 1: is what you're asking for. I didn't open the whole text.
- 13:34Speaker 1: I just saw bumper music request thunder, so I don't
- 13:39Speaker 1: know if it's thunder on the mountain or something else,
- 13:42Speaker 1: but uh, this was the one that was at hand
- 13:44Speaker 1: with the word thunder in the title. To give a
- 13:47Speaker 1: nod our friends out there in the Pacific NORTHWESTE note
- 13:51Speaker 1: usually know what this means is that our buddy Lars
- 13:56Speaker 1: Larson be coming on their radio. I think he's on
- 13:59Speaker 1: Freedom and he's also in KFI R out there and
- 14:03Speaker 1: our friends out there in the Pacific Northwest don't know somebody.
- 14:07Speaker 1: They sent us a list of all the other folks
- 14:10Speaker 1: who are in media row this particular seapack, and there's
- 14:15Speaker 1: a few I didn't see Lars's name on there. But
- 14:18Speaker 1: regardless our efforts here at Sea PAC twenty twenty six
- 14:22Speaker 1: brought to you by our friends at the Heritage Foundation,
- 14:26Speaker 1: coming to you live from the Virginia Institute for Public
- 14:29Speaker 1: Policy on the Road studio sponsored by c Fact CFaCT,
- 14:34Speaker 1: that's the Committee for Constructive Tomorrow when we're going to
- 14:39Speaker 1: talk all kinds of folks with that. We've got great
- 14:41Speaker 1: folks from the group here and lots of people. This
- 14:45Speaker 1: is going to be interesting. If you're in the conservative movement.
- 14:49Speaker 1: You may not know less, but of one of the
- 14:53Speaker 1: more notable names in the conservative movement is Scott Presler.
- 14:58Speaker 1: And if there's a reason and Republicans are going to
- 15:02Speaker 1: rest the governor's mansion in Pennsylvania, it's Scott Presler. And
- 15:06Speaker 1: he is motivated and organized and registered. And this is
- 15:11Speaker 1: the thing that people don't realize, the hard work. And
- 15:14Speaker 1: this when Matt Schlapp was telling us a couple of
- 15:16Speaker 1: weeks ago that the focus on Seapack this year is
- 15:20Speaker 1: not so much the celebrities. Sure, you're going to get
- 15:23Speaker 1: your Ted Cruz's Yes, President Trump is going to address
- 15:26Speaker 1: the Crown, but it's going to be a lot about
- 15:30Speaker 1: highlighting people like Scott Presler, who may or may not
- 15:34Speaker 1: be right. I didn't see him on the guest list.
- 15:36Speaker 1: He might be coming, because he is coming to our
- 15:38Speaker 1: flagship city on Saturday. So if he's coming, he's going
- 15:42Speaker 1: to be here today and tomorrow because Saturday he is
- 15:46Speaker 1: going to be in Harrisonburg, pennsil Harrisonburg, Virginia, and Charlottesville, Virginia. Oh,
- 15:52Speaker 1: they're going to love Scott and Charlottesville, Virginia. They're doing
- 15:57Speaker 1: what he's done in Pennsylvania, which is getting people not
- 16:00Speaker 1: just motivated to vote, but in so many cases registered
- 16:04Speaker 1: to vote. And the NRA had a database about ten
- 16:09Speaker 1: years ago of how many gun license holders were not
- 16:14Speaker 1: registered to vote. It was stunning to think, and I
- 16:17Speaker 1: know the NRA was pushing very hard. This was when
- 16:21Speaker 1: Ali North was in charge. Colonel North and his efforts
- 16:25Speaker 1: at the NRA was to get more of these NRA
- 16:29Speaker 1: members registered to vote. Of all things, you know, considering
- 16:33Speaker 1: how many times the Marxists in the government and I'm
- 16:36Speaker 1: talking to Fabians that means Republicans and Democrats alike, just
- 16:40Speaker 1: the type that think government is the solution to our problems.
- 16:46Speaker 1: So the fabians of both parties, all Democrats and unfortunately
- 16:51Speaker 1: two large number of Republicans, were marshaling all these gun
- 16:56Speaker 1: grabs and in the Republicans case, allowing them to past
- 17:00Speaker 1: shrugging and saying things like elections have consequences. Tell me,
- 17:06Speaker 1: you've heard that expression too many times? Right? I mean
- 17:08Speaker 1: they do. I mean it's not a lie, it's not
- 17:11Speaker 1: a lie, but come on, it's at some point we
- 17:14Speaker 1: need to do what we need to do. So Scott
- 17:18Speaker 1: Presler is going to be in Harrisonburg and Charlottesville getting
- 17:22Speaker 1: people riled up and getting people registered to vote as well.
- 17:26Speaker 1: And I bring this up because Eric, you've heard of Eric.
- 17:31Speaker 1: The database of folks supposedly, and it was catfished. And
- 17:36Speaker 1: it's only appropriate that this story involves our governor in Virginia,
- 17:40Speaker 1: Abigail Spanberger, when catfish is involved in a confession. I
- 17:44Speaker 1: missed a great opportunity. We're driving the Ronald Ringan Highway
- 17:48Speaker 1: here into Dallas. Just outside Dallas, and there's a big
- 17:52Speaker 1: we will probably have to get a picture of it
- 17:54Speaker 1: going back. It's like the biggest catfish restaurant in Texas
- 17:58Speaker 1: and I want a picture of it. Put Abigail Spanburgers
- 18:02Speaker 1: on the sign. But in any event, so the catfishery
- 18:07Speaker 1: is going on regarding Eric, and that was one of
- 18:11Speaker 1: the original catfishing operations. Remember, Conservatives were all about it
- 18:15Speaker 1: because this was going to be a database, a computer
- 18:18Speaker 1: software that was going to help us clean the voter
- 18:20Speaker 1: rolls and get the voter rolls squared away so that
- 18:23Speaker 1: only living, breathing American citizens were voting. Well that's not
- 18:28Speaker 1: what Eric turned out to be. I forget oh now, no,
- 18:34Speaker 1: it wasn't the Manhattan incident. I've got to go pull
- 18:36Speaker 1: up some of our conversations on it. But one of
- 18:41Speaker 1: the great investigative firms in DC for Conservative Values, found
- 18:46Speaker 1: out that what Eric actually was. This database was a
- 18:50Speaker 1: way to find out who the eligible but unregistered voters were.
- 18:58Speaker 1: And they call eboos, not like liberty insurance, but you know,
- 19:05Speaker 1: there were apparently millions of eboos out there, and this
- 19:09Speaker 1: was part of what Mark Zuckerberg's money was used for
- 19:13Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen. In twenty twenty, going down that list
- 19:16Speaker 1: of eboos, the eligible but unregistered voters, and blasting them
- 19:22Speaker 1: with door knockers. Excuse me, I'm here. Apparently you're not
- 19:27Speaker 1: registered to vote. Would I like to register to vote? No,
- 19:30Speaker 1: I can ballot harvest too, because of COVID. I'll wear
- 19:32Speaker 1: a mask so that you're not scared of me. But
- 19:34Speaker 1: I need you to get to I need you to
- 19:37Speaker 1: get out and vote. And I can actually take your
- 19:40Speaker 1: vote right here, if you vote and put it in
- 19:41Speaker 1: this envelope, and I'll bring it back to the voting place.
- 19:43Speaker 1: Far asir. And that happened, happened over and over and
- 19:47Speaker 1: over again. Is these eligible but unregistered voters were politic
- 19:52Speaker 1: were electioneered? It's an official legal word, meaning you're not
- 19:57Speaker 1: allowed to be buttonholed by somebody's campaign within a prescribed
- 20:01Speaker 1: number of feet from the ballot box. In some places
- 20:05Speaker 1: it's one hundred feet, some places it's more. That's why
- 20:10Speaker 1: if you ever go to a polling place, which I'm
- 20:12Speaker 1: sure you have, you know that the political campaigns are
- 20:15Speaker 1: all lined up and it seems like they're on a perimeter. Yes,
- 20:18Speaker 1: because that's the distance they have to maintain their distance
- 20:22Speaker 1: from the polling place. Because if you want democracy to work,
- 20:27Speaker 1: write this down, you have to be able to vote
- 20:31Speaker 1: privately in public. This is so that we the community
- 20:37Speaker 1: can make sure you are not coerced in your voting.
- 20:40Speaker 1: That's a very and I've never read that anywhere. This
- 20:43Speaker 1: is just my going through life, reading about democracy, reading
- 20:48Speaker 1: about conservative values. You protect democracy, You protect democratic republic
- 20:54Speaker 1: by making sure every citizen votes private in public. And
- 21:02Speaker 1: I say that in people glass over a little bit.
- 21:04Speaker 1: How do you vote privately in public? Nobody can see
- 21:07Speaker 1: your ballot, but we can all see you cast it,
- 21:10Speaker 1: and we can all see that you're doing it free
- 21:12Speaker 1: of coercion, free of threats, free of bribery, free of
- 21:16Speaker 1: any influence that could be undue. That is such an
- 21:21Speaker 1: important principle. But Scott Presler is doing what a lot
- 21:24Speaker 1: of these folks did with Eric, finding those conservatives, those
- 21:28Speaker 1: gun owners, those people who only vote once every four
- 21:32Speaker 1: years because the presidency dominates such media coverage. And he's
- 21:38Speaker 1: the kind of folks we're highlighting here at SEAPAC this year.
- 21:42Speaker 1: I hope he's here so we can talk to him,
- 21:44Speaker 1: but I know he is in our flagship city on Saturday,
- 21:48Speaker 1: holding a rally in Harrisonburg with Congressman Ben Klein, and
- 21:51Speaker 1: then in Charlottesville. I don't have details but I presume
- 21:55Speaker 1: Congressman John McGuire will be involved in that, and he's
- 21:58Speaker 1: got to come to your town if you need to
- 22:00Speaker 1: get out the vote.

- 24:07Speaker 2: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
- 24:12Speaker 2: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 24:18Speaker 2: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 24:22Speaker 2: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 24:26Speaker 2: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 24:31Speaker 2: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 24:36Speaker 2: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 24:41Speaker 2: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 24:45Speaker 2: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

- 28:13Speaker 3: Your friends here in the First Thing Today by Joe Thomas.
- 28:17Speaker 21: Bomb bomb, bomb bomb bomb, Iran bomb.
- 28:20Speaker 15: Bom bom bom bomb.
- 28:22Speaker 1: I ran, So what do you make, Johnny, what do
- 28:31Speaker 1: you make of this? Well? I could make a pterodactyl,
- 28:34Speaker 1: I could make approach. But aside from that, when when
- 28:38Speaker 1: the Iranian foreign minister goes on TV, you know Tara
- 28:42Speaker 1: and Terry and says we will be the one that
- 28:45Speaker 1: dictates terms. By by the way, just as a tangent,
- 28:48Speaker 1: I follow the Babylon B and and if it ever
- 28:53Speaker 1: gets to be too much for you, you gotta follow
- 28:55Speaker 1: the Babylon B. So so it's a screen cap of
- 29:00Speaker 1: I don't know the CNN anchors by name. It's not
- 29:02Speaker 1: Wolf Blitzer, but it's a CNN anchor, and the headline
- 29:07Speaker 1: is CNN calls the war for Iran. And it's funny
- 29:12Speaker 1: because they're one of the major ones who are picking
- 29:15Speaker 1: up the that the Iran is the victim in this
- 29:19Speaker 1: scenario here. And it's just like the email we received yesterday.
- 29:23Speaker 1: It's isn't this the same thing Germany did with Poland
- 29:26Speaker 1: claimed terrorism? Well, you know, and like I said yesterday,
- 29:30Speaker 1: unlike Poland, it's not a claim in this case. They've
- 29:35Speaker 1: bragged about how much money they have been giving, the
- 29:41Speaker 1: giving the terrorists in Hisbola and Hamas and all these
- 29:45Speaker 1: other gig terrorist organizations. And the opposition right now to
- 30:01Speaker 1: what's going on in Iran is the fact that we
- 30:06Speaker 1: have grown war weary, and this is one of the reasons.
- 30:09Speaker 1: So there's a lot of thought in the world that
- 30:13Speaker 1: neo conism is bad for certain reasons and the military
- 30:18Speaker 1: industrial complex, and one of the most subtle reasons to
- 30:22Speaker 1: avoid the military industrial complex build up is war weariness.
- 30:30Speaker 1: That you grow so weary as a society of battling
- 30:37Speaker 1: for the things that you hold dear, or that you're
- 30:42Speaker 1: told that your emotions are so frequently played upon that
- 30:46Speaker 1: when it's actually time to do it, you got nothing left.
- 30:53Speaker 1: You can't even tell when it's real because you've been
- 30:56Speaker 1: told it's real, and this is it so many times,
- 30:58Speaker 1: And I remember saying this is we went into the
- 31:01Speaker 1: war on terror. I said, you know, when you're talking
- 31:03Speaker 1: about this, like, we're going to go find terror in
- 31:06Speaker 1: a cave somewhere, And we did in many cases, and
- 31:11Speaker 1: we played patty cake with the ultimate state sponsor of
- 31:14Speaker 1: terror because we were scared of the strait of horror
- 31:17Speaker 1: moves being closed and all the big Iranian missiles that
- 31:20Speaker 1: they were hiding that Russia built for them, and so
- 31:30Speaker 1: we were afraid to actually go after even the chest
- 31:36Speaker 1: pumping must go after a state sponsor of terror. Meanwhile,
- 31:42Speaker 1: the one big state sponsor of terror there was got
- 31:46Speaker 1: a hall passed as a matter of fact from one
- 31:48Speaker 1: particular administration, got bags and bags of its money back
- 31:54Speaker 1: unfrozen assets. Go ahead, start sending this to Hesbo and
- 32:00Speaker 1: Hamas and isis you you go? Girl? Where the Obama administration?
- 32:06Speaker 1: Where about love? And So I understand reality exists in
- 32:16Speaker 1: ways that you can't just put into a one or
- 32:19Speaker 1: a zero. So when you talk about being war weary,
- 32:24Speaker 1: it's because unfortunately we fell prey to the very thing
- 32:29Speaker 1: that Eisenhower warned us about, that constant feeling that we're
- 32:33Speaker 1: always at war because we need to have an enemy.
- 32:38Speaker 1: They pointed out the enemy. They're the ones this time.
- 32:42Speaker 1: It's one of the subtexts of how Winston Smith starts
- 32:46Speaker 1: to say, hold on a second, here, I remember when
- 32:48Speaker 1: your asia was you know, started to remember too much
- 32:54Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty four. If you've never read read the book,
- 32:59Speaker 1: the film isn't horrible. It is one of the last
- 33:03Speaker 1: places you get to see Richard Burton perform. He's great
- 33:08Speaker 1: in it, as he is in so many things, sober
- 33:10Speaker 1: or not. But the premise is that you are patriotic,
- 33:22Speaker 1: and we all are. We love the things that America
- 33:24Speaker 1: is based on, and patriotism means standing up for those
- 33:32Speaker 1: things that America is based on. Life, liberty, property get it.
- 33:38Speaker 1: So when that becomes a marketing tool, let's keep America.
- 33:50Speaker 1: You know you ready for this. And President Trump was
- 33:53Speaker 1: very clear on this, and I think one of his
- 33:54Speaker 1: winning messages was I'm going to get us out of
- 33:57Speaker 1: all of these foreign wars. So the logical next step
- 34:05Speaker 1: is that you've got people who are going to claim
- 34:09Speaker 1: hold on a second, here, Trump lied, people died. It's
- 34:12Speaker 1: the campaign you're going to hear in the midterms because
- 34:15Speaker 1: they're going to say President Trump told you it was
- 34:17Speaker 1: going to get you out of war and no new wars.
- 34:20Speaker 1: This is the oldest war on the books right now.
- 34:24Speaker 1: This is President Trump trying to end a war that
- 34:26Speaker 1: we should have tried to end thirty years ago, and
- 34:30Speaker 1: we have had an easier time of doing it thirty
- 34:32Speaker 1: years ago. But you can only engage in debate when
- 34:39Speaker 1: you have empathy, when you understand what's being fed into
- 34:43Speaker 1: the minds of somebody who are like But I was
- 34:44Speaker 1: watching Tucker Carlson the other day and he said, because
- 34:48Speaker 1: he's not one hundred, you don't want constant war, you
- 34:52Speaker 1: don't want constant military deployment, you don't want men and
- 34:56Speaker 1: women in harm's way. But sometimes they need to be,
- 35:00Speaker 1: and unfortunately we have had misadventures for so many years
- 35:04Speaker 1: where we were putting soldiers where they didn't need to be,
- 35:08Speaker 1: that we've grown war weary, so that when we really
- 35:12Speaker 1: should have and should have for decades been dealing with
- 35:15Speaker 1: the Iranian problem, now people are like, oh, I don't
- 35:18Speaker 1: know if I really want to do that. Let me
- 35:21Speaker 1: get to you at four three four eight eight two
- 35:23Speaker 1: four two one seven here in Dallas for seapack, brought
- 35:27Speaker 1: to you by the Heritage Foundation and Virginia Institute for
- 35:31Speaker 1: Public Policy and Sea Fact dot Org. Good morning, who's this?
- 35:35Speaker 14: Good morning?
- 35:36Speaker 1: Joe's Joel? Hey Joel, And you know, I know I
- 35:39Speaker 1: have my bell here somewhere, but ring the bell for
- 35:43Speaker 1: the fact that the phone system works too here in Dallas.
- 35:46Speaker 1: So let's rock on with our bad selves. So what
- 35:48Speaker 1: do you got for us?
- 35:50Speaker 14: Well, I don't think it's just I don't think it's
- 35:53Speaker 14: about people being more weary. I think it's about people
- 35:57Speaker 14: forgetting that we are the people. We the people, and
- 36:00Speaker 14: we have a constitution. We have a First Amendment rights,
- 36:04Speaker 14: secondment rights. But those first two are the most important
- 36:08Speaker 14: because other countries don't have that. We're empowered by those
- 36:11Speaker 14: two really by those two of the of the Constitution,
- 36:17Speaker 14: because how many nations don't want to invade I mean, yeah,
- 36:20Speaker 14: they'd like to have America. They like to have our land,
- 36:23Speaker 14: and we have our sovereignty, and our sovereigntry is because
- 36:26Speaker 14: of our fighting forces and because of our constitution.
- 36:30Speaker 1: And the Constitution wasn't.
- 36:32Speaker 14: Just written and then you know, we woke up and
- 36:35Speaker 14: everything was peaceful. It's it's as as Washington, the other
- 36:39Speaker 14: founding fathers that it's Washington.
- 36:44Speaker 1: But yeah, you cut out there, you said Washington, and
- 36:48Speaker 1: oh and the.
- 36:48Speaker 14: Other Founding fathers know or knew what things were going
- 36:53Speaker 14: to happen. It was like they almost had their They
- 36:56Speaker 14: were you know, transported to this these centuries, you know,
- 37:02Speaker 14: above us because well these other countries don't have that
- 37:06Speaker 14: and and they're falling apart, especially Europe and other nations.
- 37:12Speaker 1: And yeah, well you know, and you say, it's like
- 37:18Speaker 1: they could predict it because human history, because it's humans,
- 37:23Speaker 1: and humans do this, and we have in time and memoriam.
- 37:26Speaker 1: It's part of what John Locke was talking about and
- 37:30Speaker 1: in his philosophy that became the American governing structure, that
- 37:38Speaker 1: we are humans and humans will react certain ways. But
- 37:43Speaker 1: if you leave the government out of their business, they
- 37:46Speaker 1: will be free to react on their own instincts. And
- 37:50Speaker 1: this is why Jefferson, after his presidency, founded the University
- 37:54Speaker 1: of Virginia here in our flagship city, because he said
- 37:58Speaker 1: the best way to have that kind of society is
- 38:00Speaker 1: to have an end.

- 45:17Speaker 1: with the song now it's but a four three four
- 45:20Speaker 1: eight eight two four two one seven. We were talking
- 45:23Speaker 1: about offshoring American celebrities, uh with Joel Ziph before we
- 45:29Speaker 1: had to head to break And our celebrity culture has
- 45:32Speaker 1: to be dealt with in an abstract anyway. And I
- 45:36Speaker 1: and I appreciate and I laud the folks who put
- 45:39Speaker 1: Seapack together. Go to seapack dot org. I think they
- 45:42Speaker 1: live stream some of it. If not, then you'll be
- 45:45Speaker 1: able to see some of it later on. But one
- 45:48Speaker 1: of the things that match Slap and Mercedes Slap and
- 45:52Speaker 1: all the folks who put together Seapack have gone out
- 45:55Speaker 1: of their way to do is to go after the
- 45:57Speaker 1: folks you've never heard of. I spent you know, five
- 45:59Speaker 1: minutes earlier talking about Scott Pressler and some of these
- 46:02Speaker 1: folks and the James O'Keefe is has elevated to a celebrity.
- 46:07Speaker 1: But nobody knew who James O'Keefe was until somebody started,
- 46:11Speaker 1: you know, sharing these Project Veritas videos of what was
- 46:14Speaker 1: going on behind the scenes in election headquarters in America
- 46:19Speaker 1: and things like that. It so is Robert de Niro important. No,
- 46:25Speaker 1: he can play a good character on a movie, and
- 46:29Speaker 1: if those movies elevate a conversation, that's fine, that's what
- 46:33Speaker 1: it's there for. But to act like these are leaders
- 46:40Speaker 1: in our community. You're the leader of your community. You
- 46:45Speaker 1: and me, we're you know, and you more so than me.
- 46:48Speaker 1: So get with me at four three four eight eight
- 46:50Speaker 1: two four two one seven. When we finish up with
- 46:52Speaker 1: Joel and Joe.
- 46:54Speaker 14: Look at all these people that say, I know you're gonna,
- 46:58Speaker 14: you know, make fun. Rosie Donald, she fled right now
- 47:02Speaker 14: she's back in America. Why because America has things that
- 47:06Speaker 14: those other countries that they thought were so beautiful aren't well.
- 47:11Speaker 1: And and part of it is did you see the
- 47:13Speaker 1: post about Amy Schumer who apparently I didn't know this,
- 47:16Speaker 1: not that I care, uh, never never have been an
- 47:19Speaker 1: Amy Schumer comedy fan. You know, I get it, you know,
- 47:23Speaker 1: pretty girl says disgusting things film at eleven, so you know,
- 47:28Speaker 1: shock jock stuff, but apparently related to Chuck Schumer. I
- 47:33Speaker 1: guess I didn't vet this because it's not that important.
- 47:35Speaker 1: But she's another one who wants to leave the country
- 47:38Speaker 1: and go live somewhere else. Go don't let their door
- 47:40Speaker 1: hit you where the good Lord split you. You know you've
- 47:43Speaker 1: got plenty to do in this country. What they're going
- 47:47Speaker 1: to do is they're going to offshore themselves and then
- 47:50Speaker 1: lob bombs at how bad you and I are because
- 47:53Speaker 1: we supposedly don't want to help people. And this is
- 47:56Speaker 1: an important point. You really opened a can of fish here.
- 47:59Speaker 1: Im not going to microwave it. Do you hate that?
- 48:01Speaker 1: You know when you work in a place and somebody
- 48:03Speaker 1: microwaves there tuna and then the whole place, it's like,
- 48:06Speaker 1: you know, you've just gone to Seattle to the fish
- 48:08Speaker 1: market there, but you've opened a can of fish in
- 48:13Speaker 1: this Because what we what we're being told is because
- 48:18Speaker 1: there's half the country teetering on poverty or deep within
- 48:24Speaker 1: abject poverty, and conservatives say, you know, we should be
- 48:29Speaker 1: allowed to keep you know, the monies we earn working,
- 48:34Speaker 1: and you know we're we're the haters because we don't
- 48:37Speaker 1: want to help these poor people. So the the Rosie
- 48:41Speaker 1: O'donnald's are out there saying, yeah, these give backs very
- 48:44Speaker 1: billionaires and millionaires. I just watched it with zefad mad
- 48:48Speaker 1: Money in New York when he said we're going to
- 48:51Speaker 1: tax more of these rich guys, Like, guess what, who
- 48:54Speaker 1: do we work for? If we're not a rich guy,
- 48:57Speaker 1: we work for a rich guy or somebody we consider
- 49:00Speaker 1: a rich guy. I can't even begin to tell you
- 49:02Speaker 1: how many emails I get to get from people who
- 49:04Speaker 1: want money from me because I own a radio station,
- 49:08Speaker 1: because they think that makes me a rich guy. And
- 49:11Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, really, okay, can I show you my
- 49:14Speaker 1: bank account. They don't want to talk that. They just
- 49:16Speaker 1: think there's wealth and that there's this oligarchy lurking in
- 49:21Speaker 1: the curtains, you know, sitting on bags of other people's
- 49:24Speaker 1: harder and money, and that's not the truth at all.
- 49:28Speaker 1: Our friend John Sutz has great infographics on it on
- 49:31Speaker 1: his substack page. He told us about it, and it's
- 49:34Speaker 1: up there. I've shared it. I should probably go back
- 49:36Speaker 1: and share the link now that you got me talking
- 49:38Speaker 1: about it, But this is what they do. They go,
- 49:41Speaker 1: they offshore themselves and then they lob bombs. Oh. I
- 49:44Speaker 1: used to live in the United States when it was
- 49:46Speaker 1: a great country, when the when when people like President
- 49:49Speaker 1: Albama were out there looking out for all the people
- 49:52Speaker 1: who needed looking out for. And that's the part they
- 49:55Speaker 1: make it sound like you need somebody looking out for you.
- 49:59Speaker 1: You need somebody and getting off your back.
- 50:02Speaker 14: And Joe, these people that are they're nay thing. Try
- 50:07Speaker 14: doing that in Great Britain, now, nay thing Great Britain.
- 50:10Speaker 1: Yeah, you're so right, you know. Yeah, that's about the rich.
- 50:17Speaker 14: They forget about the richness of freedom of speech.
- 50:21Speaker 1: No, they well, because, as Martin Luther King said in
- 50:24Speaker 1: his famous last speech, they haven't committed it themselves to
- 50:27Speaker 1: that over there. Good stuff, Joel, I thank you, my friend,
- 50:31Speaker 1: all right, thanks Joe four three four eight eight two
- 50:35Speaker 1: four two one seven. Is how you tell us how
- 50:38Speaker 1: the news of the day is impacting you where you are,
- 50:41Speaker 1: by the way, because I brought it up. Yes, apparently
- 50:45Speaker 1: first cousins once removed, Amy Schumer and Chuck Schumer. I'm
- 50:51Speaker 1: not sure who says more shockingly disgusting things, but Amy
- 50:55Speaker 1: Schumer Chuck Schumer first cousins. What a family reunion that is.
- 50:58Speaker 1: Can you imagine being the conservative black sheep in that family?
- 51:04Speaker 1: Oh oh ya, it is one of those people that
- 51:06Speaker 1: want to let the rich guys keep all that money.
- 51:09Speaker 1: And I'm not saying and again, pork nolos dos multiple
- 51:14Speaker 1: things can be true. Have we perverted how Wall Street operates? Yes?
- 51:21Speaker 1: Have we allowed things to be on firewalled that used
- 51:25Speaker 1: to be firewalled? Because remember, our checks and balances system
- 51:29Speaker 1: is not to so the Senate checks the judiciary or
- 51:32Speaker 1: anything like that. It's so that you and me and
- 51:36Speaker 1: our passions and our individual goals and desires do not
- 51:41Speaker 1: become somebody else's issue. We're supposed to be checked and
- 51:48Speaker 1: balanced against each other. And there were checks and balances
- 51:52Speaker 1: on Wall Street. You know, there's things things like banks
- 51:54Speaker 1: and insurance companies, investment firms merging and creating these all
- 51:59Speaker 1: of this stuff can be fixed. Corporate governance and all
- 52:05Speaker 1: the boards that are incestuously infested with one another. Yeah,
- 52:10Speaker 1: that can be fixed. And it had been fixed until
- 52:13Speaker 1: people started to play around. Well, you know, I don't
- 52:16Speaker 1: have a problem with it, God, you know. And now
- 52:18Speaker 1: we're at the other end of it. And what the
- 52:20Speaker 1: Marxists the Fabians have done is they have successfully created
- 52:25Speaker 1: a scenario where you look around and you go, well,
- 52:28Speaker 1: you know, maybe maybe we ought to try Marxism a
- 52:30Speaker 1: little bit. You know, there's so many poor people. Well,
- 52:34Speaker 1: what are you gonna do with all these poor people?
- 52:36Speaker 1: It's just like the lady Michelle Steve what we were
- 52:38Speaker 1: talking about about homelessness. We've got folks ringing in the line.
